Reports on recent events
------------------------
  Tim reported that the Health, Welfare, Planning and Transportation (HWP&T)
Committee met last Wednesday. He said that he spoke to Patti Campbell
early in the week and was told that it was not necessary for the
Ad Hoc Committee to attend the meeting - she intended that HWP&T
would refer the GPS approach issue to the Department of Public Works (DPW).

  Tim reported that he emailed this to everyone on the airport mailing
list and  heard back from Stan Townsend of DPW, who said it was the
first he'd heard about the planned referral. He said that if it were
up to him, he recommend referring the issue to the full Board of
Supervisors (BOS).

  At the Wednesday HWP&T meeting, Patti and Michael started to refer the
GPS issue to DPW and Stan Townsend recommended that the refer it directly
to the full Board.

  Stan then drafted a letter which combines our proposed letter of concurrence
with our proposed environmental letter. He sent a copy by email to Tim for
review. Tim read the letter to the committee. He said that he had suggested
one amendment to the draft letter - adding a specific recommendation that
the GPS approach be labeled "NA when local altimeter setting not available".

  Trey said that he was in Ukiah on Wednesday, but arrived too late for the
HWP&T meeting. He had received a copy of the agenda and had phoned
Lee, Willow and Susan to let them know about the meeting. Tim said that he
had let all of them know by email too.

  Trey said that he gives Stan credit for staying to the end of the
November Community Meeting regarding GPS. Trey also said that he had
written separately to the Supervisors suggesting that they refer the GPS
issue to the new AAC.

  Tim reported that the LRAPA met earlier in the day and further discussed
moving and reconstructing the segmented circle. Joel said that a good
segment circle would help clear up visiting pilot's confusion about the
traffice pattern direction.

  We agreed to meet next on 2/15/98 at 4PM at the Woods if the new committee 
hasn't been seated yet. The agenda will be:

   - approve minutes of previous meeting
   - reports on recent events
   - what further action should this committe take regarding the proposed
     GPS approach for Little River?
   - agree on agenda for next meeting
