She said family artifacts and a scrapbook have been donated to Utah State University\u0000s special collections and encouraged preservation and public display of the airport\u0000s history.

\"The Hansen family descendants are so proud of Floyd Hansen's dream he made into a reality,\" Potter said, describing the family's multi-decade involvement, flight training for World War II pilots and the local role of the Chamber of Commerce in expanding the field in the 1930s and 1940s.

Following the presentation, board members discussed the possibility of repurposing the renovated airport tower as a museum or repository for historical displays. One board member said a multi-use historic facility concept had been proposed in past years and offered to bring that plan back to the board for consideration.

Casey updated the board on the tower renovation: the new glass was installed in time for the air show, roofing work was underway and the contractor has removed the old obstruction lights. To avoid penetration of the new roof membrane, the authority opted not to reinstall the old tower obstruction light and instead to preserve and restore the fixture as a historical exhibit. Casey reported total renovation costs of $39,292 and said approximately $8,700 of the grant used for renovation remains; staff proposed using the balance to restore the tower\u0000s electrical system and clean and paint interior spaces to support a museum function.

Board members asked staff to consider accessibility and public access implications for any museum concept and to pursue additional grants or fundraising for further restoration work.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Logan-Cache Airport Authority Board Meeting 07-03-2025","oneSentenceSummary","Nancy Potter shared family archives and a history of Logan-Cache Airport, and the board discussed turning the renovated tower into a museum; staff reported $39,292 spent on tower restoration and about $8,700 remaining in grant funds.","taxTitle","Cache County School District, Utah School Boards, Utah","taxId",74853,"location","Utah","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6744481,"Board hears timeline for taxiway, snow-removal truck and PAPI relocation; master plan narrative sent to FAA",322,1092000,1414000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5132337-073db0fd01837e794278ae9151e1314c&start=1092&end=1414","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5132337-073db0fd01837e794278ae9151e1314c/thumbnail_1092000.jpg","/articles/6744481/Utah/Board-hears-timeline-for-taxiway-snow-removal-truck-and-PAPI-relocation-master-plan-narrative-sent-to-FAA","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6744481-13aace120c0c7c912ac9a08b19fa176c/orig.mp4?Expires=1770931902&Signature=EfNcV1YViXdLy6YjH7nB3I1Hj3AaSNa8pGqzx5-d9PKPg6gr8Lnu9vD71mlqxDIzfOR8T8uzZrcq7qfMYjn6XVpkEHhq0VoLpdRZxAyzH1spXeBqpZ2lXBWgQRv6aTAcYZZxPLlbKoS5fWL3xKq7CZnU3u3NWHUaL97Wf0FjNgmCtTUKVZ7Ea2felh3h12DxhzqUtbwS9puDYLs~ZMAqB2sX6dV3j7x84K6vveoaKYMA9~DRu6tnTPmiGgx67yDejfiEEzDmyaqHLNlJeg8Qz0woR8MicwVAMYkFpJ5HQL8VNWk9WIq0HaxRsZvvHqgjY5l5VD1DHmSJNgXsZOg1Ug__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Connor Butterfield of Lochner provided the board with a consolidated update on current airfield projects, procurement timelines and outstanding funding questions.

Taxiw ay Charlie: Butterfield said the project will be advertised for bids next week and that bids will be opened on July 25. The work will rehabilitate the segment at the runway tie-in and extend back about 1,400 feet; the design narrows the taxiway to 25 feet to meet standards for the airport\u0000s primary aircraft.

Snow-removal equipment (SRE): Lochner has submitted equipment specifications to the Federal Aviation Administration for review. Butterfield said manufacturers told the firm a truck could be available in January if funding and procurement proceed on the proposed schedule. FAA-funded acquisitions require a minimum one-year warranty; manufacturers offered optional extended warranties (three, five or seven years) for local funds. Butterfield said a quoted seven-year warranty option was approximately $6,800 and would cover certain major systems (engine, emissions, transmission) but that the board would need to fund any extended warranty locally.

Taxi lane Kilo: The new taxi lane design is moving forward; that package will be sent to the FAA next week and is expected to be advertised for bidding in late July.

PAPI relocation: Butterfield reported he had obtained environmental clearance to move the Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI) control units the inspector identified as misplaced. The control units must be moved roughly 120 feet. Cash Valley Electric provided a preliminary cost estimate in the range of $75,000 to $125,000, but the company said it had not yet refined the scope. Butterfield asked the board whether the work could be funded locally to expedite the schedule or whether Utah State University/other partners might have already budgeted funds; a board member noted earlier discussions where the university was expected to participate.

Master plan: Butterfield said the FAA is reviewing the airport master plan; board members asked for the narrative portion of the plan to be circulated (the exhibits had been shared at a public meeting but the narrative was not distributed to the full board). Staff agreed to route the document to Janine for dissemination and to confirm whether revisions would require further public process or additional FAA review.

No formal funding decision was made at the meeting. Board members emphasized adherence to procurement and purchasing policies for projects of the estimated PAPI cost if local funds are used.","Connor Butterfield of Lochner told the Logan-Cache Airport Authority board that bids for the taxiway Charlie rehabilitation will be opened July 25 and that several other projects remain under FAA review and pending funding decisions.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6744476,"Manager reports new software, equipment repairs and looming drainage work after clogged culvert",190,76000,266000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5132337-073db0fd01837e794278ae9151e1314c&start=76&end=266","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5132337-073db0fd01837e794278ae9151e1314c/thumbnail_76000.jpg","/articles/6744476/Utah/Manager-reports-new-software-equipment-repairs-and-looming-drainage-work-after-clogged-culvert","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6744476-ef46716de593d21f4cd729948ff90d27/orig.mp4?Expires=1770931902&Signature=IG02nrAR8nrq-~MMGIy2U49ExydSIRYFdjDPMnWF9da9Dqp1d-kYN4O29LoCH3YNnZ~p9GFMtlOk7NDJUDbpAL-UcM-6w~s9ui6EGtx4XdoDCIdMpcuL0e1X5uDONyfPe-rkeODHABXYQsQpYdFM3xQQbpIHZII3iiqN1T124JzSw7qX~8TFFhg0PZMVMfVlobRNw7kF-F6hP8Jqt1G7OjeTSQ6ELoiWA5nHNs~srUPi6vBjdF2BdG9DQp5oJ0ZMbjhIU49WL4JoO-BiyL9rYaYMscP9lf9eRyX-HNLfvuulhgsBA6oZoW7mnR-VYU7TDjijTbxzn72KLbuSkVGXgA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Casey, filling in for airport manager Bob Lowe, gave the board an operations update that covered short-term pavement preservation, new asset tracking software, a major equipment repair and a drainage concern linked to a neighboring parcel.

Casey said the authority acquired a crack-seal machine \"from the county, state and the FAA\" to use for interim pavement maintenance for Taxiway Bravo while a scheduled preservation project is not scheduled until next summer. The goal is to fill cracks and extend pavement life until the full pavement preservation work can proceed.

To improve tracking of inspections and work orders after a Part 139 inspection recommendation, staff purchased an airport management system called Aerosimple to replace spreadsheet-based tracking. \"We purchased this software in order to better run our Part 139 operations,\" Casey said.

Casey also reported that the airport snowblower suffered an internal gearbox failure last winter. Staff chose to have a new gear machined rather than cannibalize a 40-year-old unit; the replacement is being made in Texas and is expected back before this winter.

Finally, Casey said a property owner east of the airport (across the railroad) plans to sell and is working with the railroad to clear a culvert that runs under the tracks from the neighboring parcel onto airport property. Once cleared, Casey said the airport expects greater water flow into its canals and ditches. \"We're expecting a lot more water flow into the canals and ditches at the airport,\" Casey said, and staff proposed renting heavy equipment to clear the ditches and remove reeds and cattails that attract wildlife.

Board members questioned whether the irrigation/canal company, rather than the airport, carries maintenance responsibility for the channel; Casey said he would follow up with Bob Lowe and the canal company to clarify responsibilities. No financial commitment was recorded at the meeting.","Casey, filling in for airport manager Bob Lowe, reported the airport purchased a crack-seal machine and Aerosimple software, that a snowblower gear is being machined in Texas, and that clearing of a nearby culvert may increase water into airport ditches.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6744486,"Cash Air Fest drew thousands; organizers ask airport board to help cover about $9,000 shortfall",283,413000,696000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5132337-073db0fd01837e794278ae9151e1314c&start=413&end=696","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5132337-073db0fd01837e794278ae9151e1314c/thumbnail_413000.jpg","/articles/6744486/Utah/Cash-Air-Fest-drew-thousands-organizers-ask-airport-board-to-help-cover-about-9000-shortfall","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6744486-4e48d357c6f5743dd2cc5442e2e0406c/orig.mp4?Expires=1770931903&Signature=Z9Va21Yn0YRUQZyCtQGltASGvVnx7WfZ7hsJzC3kGs~FljrgbuTMlYXKcQ26klJQ9B9i7VSBTSctqO8RyK5ByjgqARriCqzcOGXM0P4cBWhiRhHlby9UzwGByq0eJJM48mgwTI~6QD72cgA6xMl5GvX89~yWw5K-BotT5~QmLxbLzFIsWptDv~vr6zDoYrena4znezbpCB23i0sFCOJ4Yruw~kmQ9jTy1WGSukhFUHbqwDHPFomN1lMvx956heAjApli8lFFn2-MuWh2JjCTGse-Q2G6S94tgzwSYpQqEcawdQ23vYiiJqAMfauZMekqXgx3DsyH3w-55gMzg3JmFw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Baron Wiesman, chair of the Cash Air Fest committee, told the Logan-Cache Airport Authority board that the air show attracted an estimated more than 7,000 attendees and praise for performers and volunteers, but that parking problems and last-minute permitting requirements increased unanticipated costs.

\"So about $9,000 is where we are,\" Wiesman said, describing unpaid bills for law enforcement, porta-potties and other on-the-ground support. He asked board members to use their networks to solicit donations and described a plan to route tax-deductible contributions through an existing nonprofit contact handled by Sean Milne.

The nut of the request is pragmatic: organizers said several sponsors and in-kind partners made the event possible\u0011Cash Valley Electric was the premier sponsor, and Spring Hill Marriott, Wilson Ford and local aviation businesses provided support\u0011but some operational bills arrived only after the event and the festival\u0000s volunteer finance lead was unavailable at the critical time.

Wiesman and other committee members highlighted what worked: a STEM fair, community exhibitors, an aero demonstration that drew the largest crowds, and a successful hangar event the night before the show. The main operational shortcomings were parking and signage, which the committee said led to congestion on 2500 West and overflow parking along roadways.

Board members discussed next steps. David (staff) said he could check whether the airport could amend its budget if donations do not materialize; other board members suggested offering sponsor exposure on the airport website, local radio shout-outs, or partnering with Cache Valley Transit for shuttle service in future events.

Wiesman said the committee plans to hold the event on a two-year cycle going forward and to start fundraising earlier for the next edition. He asked any donors to route gifts through the nonprofit arrangement that Sean Milne is managing (referred to in the meeting as the Bragg/Bear River nonprofit setup).","Organizers said the recent Cash Air Fest exceeded attendance expectations but generated unexpected expenses, and the Air Fest committee requested help from the Logan-Cache Airport Authority to close an estimated $9,000 funding gap through donations or the board\u0000s budget.","actionData","errors"]
