If MAC determines <br />that Gateway serves as a reliever airport, then the costs of services at Gateway should not <br />be borne by Ramsey alone. <br /> <br />COMMISSION INPUT <br /> <br />Chairman Ippel stated that FAA has committed dollars for air traffic control classes at <br />Flying Cloud Airport. However, Flying Cloud is a temporary location and FAA wants to <br />build an entire air traffic control complex. If that complex is to be in Ramsey, there has to <br />be a commitment to upgrade Gateway and pave the runway. <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />The consensus was to adjourn at 8:45 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Sylvia Frolik <br />Secretary <br /> <br />Airport Commission/July 12, 1989 <br /> Page 2 of 2 <br /> <br /> <br />
