• FAA Response to Fletcher Flying Service Complaint
The FAA dismissed a complaint filed by Fletcher Flying Service, Inc. without prejudice
as incomplete, and recommended that the complainant engage in informal resolution
with the Airport Authority prior to refiling a complaint.
• FAA Determination of Aeronautical Versus Non-Aeronautical Use
Mr. Curry requested the FAA provide an opinion as to whether Mr. Gregory Shepard's
and Mr. Mayhood's operations at the Immokalee Regional Airport should be
considered aeronautical or non-aeronautical uses. The FAA determined that based on
the grant assurance to be as self-sustaining as possible, it is appropriate for the
Airport Authority to charge non-aeronautical use rates for both Mr. Shepard's and Mr.
Mayhood's hangars.
Mr. Meade disagreed with the FAA's determination. He inquired as to whether Mr.
Curry asked Ms. Ritchey to declare Mr. Shepard's use non-aeronautical and stated
that there appears to be a lot of harassment going on. Mr. Meade also indicated that
he was going to contact Ms. Ritchey at the FAA and her boss, and that he would
report to the Advisory Board.
Advisory Board members expressed concern as to why they were not informed that
the FAA was going to be at the airport.
• Dirt Bike Track at Immokalee Airport Proposal
Airport Authority Management has received inquiries about the possibility of leasing
about eight to ten acres at the Immokalee Airport for a dirt bike track. The track
would not be constructed on property designated for aeronautical use. The Advisory
Board expressed support for type of activity.
8. Director's Report.
Advisory Board action is requested on items under this section of the Agenda.
• Tie-Down Agreement

unanimous vote.

if a person dispenses over 1,000 gallons of fuel annually in their aircraft.

passed unanimously.

Department. He also stated that in his conversation with the FAA, the FAA indicated that

experience that a permit is required regardless of the number of gallons that will be
dispensed in order to prevent pilots such as him from bringing on five-gallon jugs.
