We're going into the "ground <br />lease business" versus the "air hangar business". <br />COMMISSIONER WICKER - Mr. Ogburn, do you have any questions with <br />what he just said? <br />JOHN OGBURN - I don't think 650 acres will be needed. I think <br />300-400 acres would be enough to handle this airport. I think there <br />are some other reliever airports that are no more than 350 acres that <br />do just fine - on the north side of Raleigh. <br />COMMISSIONER WICKER - Do you think buying this much property <br />will be a protection down the road for this? <br />JOHN OGBURN - I don't know what we need to-be protected from. <br />COMMISSIONER REIVES - Where are the City people. I thought they <br />were coming today. <br />COMMISSIONER MATTHEWS - They said they had no reason to come <br />they are satisfied with the way things are going and are comfortable <br />with it. <br />S Commissioner Matthews thanked everyone from the Authority for <br />attending and stressed open communication between the two Boards. <br />COMMISSIONER GARNER - Mr. Hobbs I want you and Mr. Lawrence to <br />both understand that this was not intended to be an adversarial <br />confrontation or inquisition. It was simply to get some facts and <br />some information that we have been asked by a number of people within <br />the County about questions that have not been previously answered. <br />That was the whole purpose of why we ask you to come today. <br />COMMISSIONER REIVES - I would like something made clear for the <br />record this Commissioner would favor. We meet sometimes twice a <br />month. I'd like an update twice a month until this project is <br />finished. I'll tell you where I am and I'll go with what the Board <br />decides, quarterly or whatever they vote to do. I would like to be <br />kept more abreast of what's going on with this project. I'll leave <br />you with that thought. <br />The Board took a five minute recess at this time. <br />Upon returning from the recess, with all members present, the <br />meeting resumed. <br />Rev. Lisa Cole, Pastor of the Lemon Springs Methodist Church <br />delivered the invocation. <br />11 <br />
