The City of <br />Westminster was planning to meet with the Jefferson County Airport Authority prior to taking any <br />further action. The City of Boulder was circulating a letter among their councilmembers for <br />consensus directions on sending a letter. The Citizens for General Aviation had retained the lobbyist <br />to oppose regularly scheduled passenger service at the Jefferson County Airport. The next Airport <br />Authority Board meeting was scheduled for this Thursday at 2 p.m. There was no item scheduled on <br />the agenda as a formal item.

Their discussions with the Airport Authority <br />centered around the Department of Transportation Part 380 Charter Service Standards and whether <br />or not they could exclude entities or companies that have been known to operate charter services <br />under that Part 380.

They are waiting <br />word from the Louisville City Council as to whether or not this is going to move forward and if so, <br />they would seek an extension. The letter contained a proposal detailing how the Louisville Housing <br />Authority, working with the City Council, would add its own staff and administer its own property. <br /> <br />Davidson suggested allowing a few days for Council to make a decision, at which time he would poll <br />councilmembers. <br /> <br />Mayer asked for the Louisville Housing Authority feedback and comments to this proposal prior to <br />making a decision. <br /> <br />Simmons stated that information was received from Comcast Communications, the cable tv provider <br />for the City of Louisville, that on January 15, 1998, there will be changes made to the cable service <br />plans. Currently, there are two tiers of basic service, including the cable programming services tier, <br />for a total of $22.95. Beginning January 15, that will move to three tiers.
