Mr. Shelby stated that inflation has increased so that the volume at the airport no longer will cover the costs and they are losing money. The greatest opposi- C tion came from the proposed fuel fees increase. He stressed this is a user e charge, not a landing fee. The original proposal would have been higher and this is a compromise proposal. This proposal, however, does not cover actual costs in some instances. The revenue is generated in many ways and they do not need to pass on the actual costs at this point. This would raise the cost approximately $4.61 per trip, or $1.50 per hour. They looked at an alternative proposal to reduce fuel flowage fees and increase parking fees and ground rental fees. He recommends the alternative proposal in the staff notes.

The first amendment would be to designate the Bethel Triangle as community development-eligible; the second would be to include the north section of the Farwest Neighborhood with the Jefferson Neighbor- hood Improvement Program, to HUD. Ms. Smith asked what the role of the Active Bethel Citizens would be in this proposal and what their current status is. Mr. Farah responded that IFA's do not require an active advisory neighborhood group. The Bethel group could propose individual projects. Primarily, rehabilitative housing will be the focal point for community development funds, although the neighborhood groups could propose various projects. Ms. Smith asked that if the neighborhood group is not going to continue to operate, is there is an alternative organization that could help coordinate their project proposals.
