Mr. Ogburn explained that the airport commission is requesting $4,300 from the County and the City of Sanford to match an $8,600 State Grant for a rip rap ditch liner to be installed in the southwest end of the runway adjacent to the railroad part of the conclusion of the 500 foot extension project to comply with N. C. Division of Land Resources Erosion Control Requirements.

They have received an estimate of $45,000.00 to complete the updating of the Airport Layout Plan. Of this amount the local share is $22,500.00. They propose to convert the alternative study money above of $15,000.00 to be used for the first part of the $22,500.00 and this would leave a requirement for an additional $3,750.00 each from the City and County.
