Chairman Field stated the first order of business was a discussion of the September 22nd
joint meeting held with Hollywood, Davie and Cooper City. Ed Summers said he felt it
was basically a good meeting. It was interesting to learn preparation of the EIS will not
be complete for approximately 18 months. He asked if anything is on the website as yet
and was told by Gary Liedtke that nothing is available now but it will appear as a draft.
Mr. Summers stated he is very interested in getting an estimate of how much dirt will
have to be moved to construct the runway. Where the dirt will come from and how it will
be moved and filled into the site. He said this is an incredible task and he wants to know
how it is to be accomplished. Will this information be in the EIS? He is going to talk to
Ivan Pato in this regard. Gary Liedtke commented that if it isn't in the EIS,it is
definitely one thing that could be protested.
Mr. Summers added that some time ago he had made contact with a group similar to the
Dania Beach Airport Advisory Board in regard to their problem at Lambeth Field in St.
Louis. Their problem concerned an adjacent highway and was comparable to Ft.
Lauderdale/Hollywood south runway and Federal Highway. The FAA gave the St. Louis
group specific rules to follow based on density of traffic. Mr. Summers will contact them
again and get additional information in this regard.

Chairman Field next aske
d GaryLuedtke for his comments on the joint meeting. Mr.
beneficial for the three groups to get together every
' he felt it was certainly be � Ps
Luedtke said Y
other month however he was very disappointed that although all three groups had agreed
they would attend the next Broward County Commission meeting,the only group
represented,in addition to Brenda Chalifore,were three people from Dania Beach.
Chairman Field made a comment that the Davie people seem to be more concerned about
the present health problem than they are about the future effects of an extended south
runway. All agreed.
Chairman Field mentioned he was scheduled to attend a meeting of the Task Force
at 9:00 AM the following morning. The main subject scheduled for discussion is to be
the building of five new hangers on the west side of the airport. He had not received any
support material whatsoever and was concerned about total square footage involved.
Gary Luedtke and Ed Summers both cautioned that building these new hangers could
have an adverse effect on any decision that might be made in the future regarding a new
north parallel runway.
Gary Lidkte said he wanted to call attention to several items scheduled on the agenda for
the next Broward County Commission meeting. The first item he mentioned was#28
which deals with retaining the Michael Schneiderman Law Firm to represent the Broward
County Commission interest in connection with the pending EIS. Item#38 deals with a
motion to approve updated layout plan for the airport depicting new proposed extended
south runway. Also several items deal with leasing of property on the west and north
sides of airport to Sheltair. The last item Mr. Luedtke mentioned was#40, covering
appointment of a negotiating committee to recommend the most qualified firm to provide
a Part 150 Noise Abatement Study.
All present agreed there should be no meeting of the board in December. There being no
further business to bring before the group at this time, Chairman Field adjourned the
meeting at 8:00 PM.
