Record-Eagle, Monday, May It, IfTS Airline fee talks public A I Northwestern Regional Airport Commission and North Central Airlines remain some 25 cents from agreement on landing fees at Cherry Capital Airport after-a recent bargaining session For the first time the public is being called in to comment on the fees by the commission at a public hearing next Monday night. The commission established a 40 cents per 1,000 pounds (aircraft weight) landing fee which covers a number of airport services to craft landing there -In an ordinance earlier this year That amount is needed, the commision says, in order to cover the cost of services However North Central, a Minnesota- based commercial carrier, told the commission it is willing to pay only 15 cents per 1.000 pounds which the airline says is what it pays at other stops. The dispute continues from last year. The newest wrinkle is calling the public in to comment on the fee schedules set in the ordinance Airport Manager A H. "Red" Stults said bringing in the public means a number of benefits for the commission's argument.

For one thing he said, if it ever comes to a court battle with North Central, the commission would be able to show it took every route it could to resolve the situation. For another thing, Stults continued, a pro-commission public response would add weight to the commission's talks the airline. Third, said, the situation has reached a point where the "public ought to be a part of.it." Stults commented that general aviation private aircraft is charged--" 40 cents per 1,000 pounds and to continue to allow the big airline to pay less would a continuing "disparity." The airport manager said that the 11 and North Central had been able to reach agreement on new office and other rental rates.
