Lake Powell RC Modelers Meeting Minutes January 12, 2015


Present: Tom Zwack, Pam Brown, Joe McPhail, Leslie McPhail, and Abby McPhail

1.        FAA registration requirements were received by email and Pam will send them on to everyone.  Registration with the FAA is free until January 19 and $5 until February 19.  Failure to register can result in fines or imprisonment.
2.       ID labels for planes are required with your AMA member number and the new FAA registration number.  It must be accessible without tools.
3.       Mayor Diak let us know that the City of Page has filed a grant application for evaluating the airfield for federal help in covering the junk coming up through the sand.  He’ll keep us posted on progress.
4.       Treasurer:  Tom Zwack reported a balance of $3641.80.  Chemicals have been purchased and ready to be mixed and sprayed.  The application of a pre-emergent stabilizer by March should keep weeds from even starting.
5.       Priorities for 2016:
1.       Weed Control: We need a water source such as a cube storage container
2.       Striping the Runway:  We need water source and power drills to mix the striping
3.       Membership:  Goal is for each member to recruit one new member this year.
4.       Large Shade:  Roof needs some repair.
5.       PortaJohn:  Maintenance needed.

6.       Perimeter Fence:  Maintenance needed.
