Chairman Bob Owen’s spoke about the trip to the Illinois Division of Aeronautics in
Springfield to discuss the DeKalb Airport 2019 - 2023 Airport Transportation
Improvement Program with the FAA and Division of Aeronautics. He was very happy
with the results of the meeting.
Airport Manager Tom Cleveland discussed, line by line, the airport’s Transportation
Improvement Program, (TIPs), with the AAB. The TIPs program list will be attached to
the minutes of this meeting.
The two funded FAA and State projects are the replacement of the visual navigational
aids next to both runways and the crack filling and patching of runway 2-20. The total
amount of committed FAA and State funding for these two projects is $1.41 million
dollars.
Future projects include the purchase of the Frontier building for a snow removal
equipment building, airport security fencing, ramp pavement replacement, a total
overlay of the main runway 2-20, rehabilitation of taxiway pavements, land acquisition,
airport utilities relocation, and expansion of a detention basin for development.
Airport Manager Tom Cleveland stated that the FAA and Illinois Division of Aeronautics
approve of our TIPs plan and recommend moving forward with it.
A motion was made by Jim Rhoades to approve the 2019 – 2023 TIPs plan and
recommend approval by the DeKalb City Council. The motion was seconded by Paul
Borek. Motion passed
Airport Manager Tom Cleveland discussed an airport survey that Volaire Aviation, our
airport strategic plan consultants, came up with and recommended that we send out to
DeKalb residents asking about renaming or rebranding of the airport.
The AAB discussed the survey and recommended to put it on the City of DeKalb
website, paper copies at the library, mass mailing to City residents and have a copy of
the survey in their utility bill. It was recommended that the Taylor Family be contacted
prior to the distribution of the airport survey to get their recommendations on renaming
and rebranding of the airport. Further discussion id needed.
Airport Managers Report – Airport Manager Tom Cleveland told the AAB that the Jet
fuel incentive program is going well. It appears the airport will not hit the 12,000 gallon
sold mark in November.
The DeKalb Flight Center received a perfect score, no discrepancies, on the Phillips 66
inspection, Phillips checks all fueling documentation, fuel quality control procedures,
fuel farm equipment and operation and fuel truck maintenance and operation. Phillips
66 was very impressed with the DeKalb Airport fueling operation.
Snow removal equipment is being prepared. The aircraft deice truck is in great working
condition and ready to go.
The NIU Men’s and Women’s basketball teams will be flying out of DeKalb Airport again
this year.
