Welcomed all those attending, including, Frank Burggraf, former Airport Board Member, now our Airport Historian. • ITEM #2: Minutes of the June 12, 2003 meeting. A motion to approve the minutes was made by Frank Sperandeo and seconded by Mike Andrews. The motion carried. ITEM #3: Receiving of Reports. A. Charles Wallace, Chairman. Reported someone at a marina told him he watched the Board meetings regularly and asked how long Mr. Wallace would be on the Board. C. Wallace said he was glad that people are watching the meeting and taking an interest. He thanked all those that volunteer their time for the Board meetings and for other things involving aviation, such as AIRFEST. B. Ray Boudreaux, Director. He introduced Tony Beringer of Clear Channel Radio, and T. Beringer announced that the main event for Clear Channel's Free Listeners Concert will be Steve Warner with Bachman Turner Overdrive opening for them. Gates will open at 2:00 p.m. He said he had met several times with Ray and walked the property, and will be meeting with the Police Department. Tickets are free, but you must go to one of the sponsors to pick up the tickets. There will be a fee for parking. R. Boudreaux said they were already working on getting the Blue Angels for the air show next year. Air show dates will be June 19 and 20, 2004. He and Wayne met with the Forest Service last Thursday and finalized plans. The government announced in the newspaper they will be giving us the grant for the taxiway extension. He told of meeting • with several different businesses looking at doing business at the airport. We have been working hard on closing out five separate grants involved with the FBO hangar and the 1 • corporate ramp. There was a lot of paperwork involved. We received the first check at a Check Presentation Ceremony with a representative from the Governor's office and John Knight of the State Aeronautics Department. He thanked Wayne Jones and James for their work on closing out those grants. Next we will be working on filling in the grassy area at the north end of the terminal ramp. The money is already in our budget. The City has started working on the 2004 budget process and. the Airport Board will need to approve the CIP list. F. Sperandeo told of visiting an airport in Kansas that advertises nationally their self- serve fueling for $ 1 .84 and he had been jealous as there were five planes lined up for fuel. He commented that Siloam Springs' price is lower than us and we needed a marketing plan to get people going cross-country to stop here. R. Boudreaux explained that the Board approved a formula to set fuel prices and we are maintaining the same pricing margin. He reminded everyone that getting self-serve fueling is a project that staff is working on, and Air-Nav has some nice comments about our airport. He also explained that as soon as we change a fuel price, we also put the new price out on Air- Nav and other websites. C. Wallace stated marketing the fuel is something the Board could work on at a Strategic Planning Meeting. C. James Nicholson, Financial Coordinator. He reviewed the financial reports in the agenda. He stated they had worked out revenue projections for the rest of the year. The biggest change was due to the air show and the fencing by the Museum. He commented . we didn't make money on fuel sales during the first half of the year, but now the margins have been established we can make better predictions. R. Boudreaux answering Mr. Sperandeo's questions about the new ramp project, said we saved a significant amount of money -on the runway/taxiway project and the FAA agreed we can spend the money on the safety project which is filling in the grassy island north of the terminal ramp and will extend the ramp to the north. As we widen the taxiway, we will be loosing some of the terminal ramp to the taxiway and this project will replace ramp we will lose. W. Jones explained the project is a safety project and will be funded by a 90% federal grant, 5% State grant and 5% airport funding. If Drake Field doesn't spend the money on a grant project the FAA will send the funds to another airport. C. Wallace said the island/ramp project Wayne is working on has been on the books to do for some time. C. Wallace said it was good to see this year's deficit down some. He suggested having a Strategic Planning Meeting to discuss the airport's revenues, budget, and expenses. We want to keep one million dollars in reserve. R. Boudreaux reported the office plans to apply for several State Aeronautics grants at their August meeting, the self-serve fueling facility, the U. of A. hangar, and the 60' x 60' hangar, as well as the eastside Taxiway Alpha extension. D. Louise Powers, T-Hangar Report. All the T-Hangars are rented, as well as all T- Hangar storage end units. We have five names on each list, the single engine size and the twin engine size. Some of the names are the same on both lists, they are waiting for the first available hangar. We have two names on the 60' x' 60' list. We have one name on • the storage unit list. The FBO hangar has had two long term tenants all month, the U. of A. and someone waiting on a T-Hangar. There were seven overnights and during the air 2 • show, we provided hangar protection for 17 air show planes. Responding to C. Wallace question, nobody moved from the T-Hangars to the FBO Hangar. E. Construction Report, Wayne Jones. He stated there were some minor items relating to the ramp project that need to be finished. On the north end of the ramp the new project will bring the ramp back to the edge of the fence. R. Boudreaux said this will make all the taxiways 50' wide, widening the taxiway in front of the terminal from 40' to 50' . He expressed his appreciation to the FAA's Project Manager Don Harris for allowing us to use the funds left over in the grant. The FAA could have taken back the amount. W. Jones told of meeting with the Forest Service last week and he has already seen some changes from their engineer. Their ramp will be a heavy weight ramp. He commented he had the Forest Service plans and they would be available for viewing after the meeting. The U. of A. hangar project has been turned over to their drafting, it will be similar in appearance as the FBO hangar. It will have an office, a private office, restroom, and lounge on the south side of the facility. F. Maintenance Report, Ray Boudreauax. Staff has installed an automatic security gate and they have been mowing like crazy with the new double bat-wing. They are able to mow in two days what did take four days. That will give them time now to do some weed-eating and more thorough cleaning. ITEM #4: Old Business. None. • ITEM #5: New Business. A. Proposal to operate a restaurant in the terminal. R. Boudreaux explained Wally's Smokeshack is closing and the day after we received their cancellation notice we had someone new interested in opening a restaurant in the terminal. He reviewed the Lease Term Workpaper for AR Group LLC. The lease is the same except the option to renew has an increase in rent. Kevin Johnson, his wife, and Billy Stillwell have been working on the plans for the new restaurant. They had previously looked at the area for a restaurant several years ago. They plan a full service restaurant and plan to open in September if approved. B. Stillwell explained they plan to serve breakfast and be open from 6 until 10 p.m. weekdays and noon to 8 p.m. Sundays. He further explained that Kevin Johnson has lived in the area all of his life can bring a lot to the airport, and they plan to be big on advertising, with radio, newspaper and TV, and also a restaurant sign on the highway signs on I-540. B. Request for office space in the terminal. R. Boudreaux stated he had a request from Vernaci Construction to locate an office in the terminal. Their company will be doing the ground and earth work for the new Lowe's store on Highway 62. They need a permanent presence in Fayetteville and have been flying three different planes here regularly. They will have a couple of people in the office all day. A motion to approve the Lease and forward on through the City's • Contract Review process was made by Dave Bowman and seconded by Mike Andrews. The motion carried, with four members voting 3 • "for" and there were no votes "against' (Otto Loewer had left early for another meeting, and Rick McKinney and Bob Nickle were absent from the meeting). C. Airport's Capital Improvement Projects. B. Boudreaux and Board discussed the projects. Boudreaux explained staff still had additional paperwork to prepare for the City on each of the items, three forms, photo, and a justification. All this goes to the City's Budget Review Committee which is made up of all the City's Directors and the Finance Office staff. All the City's projects are then put into a booklet that is .presented to the City Council for approval. F. Spreandeo requested putting the T-Hangar back into 2003 's budget. R. Boudreaux reminded him the Board had agreed to take it out of 2003 's budget because of the airport's financial situation, it could be added back in, or we can move the T-Hangar from year 2005 to 2004. The ALP (Airport Layout Plan) is in the budget as the FAA requires airports to have an ALP to get FAA grants. A Strategic Planning Meeting has been set for Tuesday, July l51 ', from 12 noon to 4 p.m. Staff will need to arrange for lunch for the meeting. R. Boudreaux thanked the Board for helping make these difficult decisions. A motion to recommend the Airport's Capital Improvement Projects on to the City's Budget Review Committee and to forward it on to the City Council for approval was made by Mike Andrews and seconded by Frank Sperandeo. The motion carried with with four members • voting " for" and there were no votes "against" (Otto Loewer had left early for another meeting, and Rick McKinney and Bob Nickle were absent from the meeting).

Dave Bowman, Secretary Date 4 • MINUTES OF THE AIRPORT BOARD MEETING August 14, 2003 MEMBERS PRESENT: Charles Wallace, Rick McKinney, Frank Sperandeo, Mike Andrews, Bob Nickle MEMBERS ABSENT: Dave Bowman, Otto Loewer STAFF PRESENT: Ray Boudreaux, James Nicholson, Louise Powers OTHERS PRESENT: David Hollman-Flying Investments; Wayne Jones-McClelland Consulting Engineers; Frank Burggraf-Airport Historian and former Airport Board Member; Judy Hammond-Ark. Air Museum; Barry West-tenant; John P. Ross-Ross Executive Aviation, Inc. ; Cheri Boudreaux-citizen ITEM #1 : Welcome, Chairman Charles Wallace. He welcomed all those attending by television and in person. ITEM #2: Minutes of the July 10. 2003 meeting. C. Wallace delayed action on the minutes until the September meeting, as the Airport Board Secretary wasn't able to be at this meeting. • ITEM #3 : Receiving of Reports. A. Charles Wallace, Chairman. Stated he would like to comment on an aviation event, "Oshkosh". Oshkosh is sponsored by the Experimental Aircraft Association-the EAA. The members build experimental aircraft, some members repair aircraft. The aircraft is home built and not licensed under same certificate as other aircraft. It is an annual, weeklong event. One of our members has just returned from Oshkosh and we would like to recognize Frank Sperandeo. This year he won the Lindy Award, the Charles Lindberg Award, which is quite an accomplishment. He has won over 50 national awards. F. Sperandeo displayed his trophy (for his "Miss Pearl" aircraft). B. Ray Boudreaux, Director. He explained all the noise outside the Conference Room is staff removing of the old Baggage Belt System. He said he contacted the company that made the system and they put it on the web for sale, and also had contacted a broker and they tried selling it. Also explained when he was in Little Rock he had talked to the Airport Director, asking if they needed it for parts. They didn't, and were getting rid of theirs for junk. Now with all the security regulations, these baggage systems are very outdated. We are selling it for $ 100.00 and they will haul it away. He said he had finalized the restaurant lease and they plan to open September 1 ". On September 60i, the first home ballgame weekend the restaurant is sponsoring an event in the parking lot, fish and game displays and other displays. They will have a live radio remote before and after the game, all designed to get people out to the restaurant, and invited everyone to come out to the airport and restaurant. W. Jones has the plans for the Forest Service on the table so everyone can look at them after the meeting. We have three bid openings coming up. Taxiway Extension Project is on August 250i, the Farm 1 • Lease (hay) is on August 26`", and the Self Serve Fueling Facility on August 29th The new PAPI (Precision Approach Path Indicator) is up and operating and has been certified. The VASI (Visual Approach Slope Indicator) will be removed. The U. of A. has asked for some changes in the hangar design. He said he and Wayne had gone to the State Aeronautics Meeting in Little Rock, yesterday and received approval for grants on the U. of A. hangar and a grant for the design and engineering for the extension of Taxiway Alpha. These items are on the agenda today. During the State Aeronautics meeting they had an open discussion about changing the way they may award some grants, to where they may not require the local match on some types of grants. They will make more information available at a later date. The AAOA is holding their annual meeting in Eureka Springs in September, and invited any Board members that wanted to attend to let him know. He said he would be attending an Arkansas Economic Development Conference at the Radison during August, and in October he would be attending the NBAA Conference in Florida and will have a booth. We will have give aways and tri-fold brochures highlighting things available at Drake Field. C. James Nicholson, Financial Coordinator. Reported the fuel sales were slow, although, the fuel sales for July was 18% higher than the same time last year. The wholesale fuel price has been creeping up, and other indicator show it will go higher.. In other FBO news, Executive Air in Springdale has sold to Pinnacle Air in Springdale. C. Wallace recalled the Board had set a formula in March, to begin in April, that would calculate out the selling price of fuel. He also wondered if the Airport did something radical about fuel and marketing if it would increase air traffic and fuel sales. F. • Sperandeo stated that five customers based on the field were going to Siloam Springs and Missouri to buy fuel. R. McKinney said most of the tenants flying locally bought fuel here, unless going on a long trip and then bought fuel to return home. M. Andrews stated we need to define who we want as customers, jet fuel sales or Av gas sales. C. Wallace said these were items to bring up at the Board's Strategic Planning Meeting. There have been several days we had quite a few jets, but they didn't buy any fuel, they were from close by, Little Rock and Texas. Sometimes they will buy courtesy fuel, 100 gallons. R. Boudreaux said there had been some discussion of giving the line guys incentives to encourage/invite people to buy fuel, but as we are a Municipal Airport, he didn't know how to pay for that. C. Wallace mentioned there is great disparity in the cost of fuel from location to location. J. Nicholson speaking of the Financial Report stated they went through a very comprehensive review last month and didn't think any change was needed for the year end projections. He mentioned the big jump in revenue was from the concert. C. Wallace commented he had wondered at the wisdom or value of concerts at the airport, safety issues of crowds close to the runway, but we've had no problems and now the interest of the community shows the airport is where things happen. R. Boudreaux said we had no additional expenditure because of the concert. Our people continued doing their own jobs. The radio station did hire police officers and paid the Air Museum around $2,000.00 for helping park cars. He also mentioned the Ozark Military Museum had their Ribbon Cutting Ceremony yesterday. • 2 D. Louise Powers, T-Hangar Report. We had two cancellations and filled the first • one right away. For the second hangar vacancy, the next two names on the list were not interested in renting at that time and the third name had been called, but had to leave a voice message. That particular person is already renting in the FBO waiting for T- Hangar space so he will be moving to a T-Hangar. In the FBO Hangar, we've had three long term tenants all month and we've had five one night tenants. R. Boudreaux spoke to those watching on TV, saying our waiting list is getting smaller and if anyone would like to locate their aircraft at Fayetteville to call the Airport Office. E. Construction Report, Wayne Jones. Said the Bid Opening for Taxiway Alpha will be on August 25`h. The taxiway will have lights. R. Boudreaux commented that Airport will pay for McClelland Engineers to oversee both the City's part of the project and the Forest Service's part of the project and the Forest Service will pay the Airport back for their part of the overseeing of the project. W. Jones said plans were given to the U. of A., and they had agreed on all except the doors, they want to look at other options. A meeting is planned for tomorrow. R. Boudreaux reported the 60' x 60' hangar has taken a back seat this month. He said we have to wait a year before we can get another hangar grant from the State Aeronautics, and he said he had done some lobbying for that project when they were at the meeting. F. Maintenance Report, Ray Boudreaux. The air conditioner was installed yesterday in the Pilots Briefing Room. Wheels were installed yesterday on the gate. Leon has been on vacation for 2 %z weeks. Our FAA Certification Inspector was here and found some stripes we need to repaint because the pavement has grayed and the lines now need black paint around the line for clarification, and some lines that had yellow painted on top of white that need refurbished. He spent a lot of time with the fire department. The fire department has put Terry Lawson back in charge of airport training. F. Sperandeo mentioned he had found more nails on the T-Hangar ramp. R. Boudreaux stated our maintenance guys run the truck with the FOD bar regularly. ITEM #4: Old Business. None. ITEM #5: New Business. A. Request for terminal office space. R. Boudreaux explained the Lease Data Sheet in the Agenda packet, saying this is a typical terminal lease for Roberts Manufacturing, Inc. A motion to approve the lease was made by Bob Nickle and seconded by Rick McKinney. The motion carried. B. Arkansas Department of Aeronautics Grant for U. of A. Hangar. C. Arkansas Department of Aeronautic Grant for FAA AIP Grant #30, for the design and engineering of taxiway Alpha Extension. D. FAA Grant AIP #31, for the construction of Taxiway Alpha Extension. R. Boudreaux explained the State Aeronautics Commission approved both of the state • grants at their meeting yesterday, Items B and C. We are requesting the Board's approval 3 • to forward both of these items on to the City Council. C. Wallace said Items B, C and D could be voted on together. R. Boudreaux answering C. Wallace said the U. of A. hangar was not in our budget. The U. of A. asked us to construct the hangar. We have a signed lease with the U. of A. We are borrowing the money from the City's Economic Development Fund and the U. of A. will pay, through rent payments, the cost of the hangar/the borrowed amount. Regarding Item #D, you have seen in the paper where the FAA announced we had received their grant. That means the money has been reserved for the project, but we need to do the paperwork. A motion to approve Items B, C, and D and forward them on to the City Council for their approval was made by Rick McKinney and seconded by Mike Andrews. The motion carried. E. Update on the Self-Serve Fueling project. J. Nicholson stated he had consulted with 3 or 4 venders about types of construction, and with the State on codes. Because of the proposed cost. of the project, the City's policy requires it to be advertised two times, a week apart, and RFP's were mailed to interested parties. Sealed bids will be opened on August 291h . Approval from the Board is required before it goes to the City Council. A Special Meeting may be required. R. Boudreaux suggested the Board could approve the bid if the bid is within the budget. A motion to give Airport Staff authority to send to City Council a _ request to spend funds for the self-serve fueling project, if the . Airport's share doesn't exceed $25,000, was made by Frank Sperandeo and seconded by Bob Nickle. The motion carried. ITEM #6: Other Business, A. Items from the Airport Board. Answering F. Sperandeo, C. Wallace said the T- Hangar had been moved to year 2004. The 60' x 60' hangar project was swapped with the T-hangar project, because the 60' x 60' would bring in higher revenue. R. Boudreaux said those changes took place before the U. of A. hangar request came up. The State said they will only help with one hangar per year. We are already laying ground work for the next one. C. Wallace said if we don't get help for the 60' x 60' hangar, we may move it to next year, and we would want to have signed leases in place before we would build the hangar. R. Boudreaux said we want to keep $ 1 ,000,000.00 in our account at the end of the year. R. McKinney asked that an e-mail be sent to the Board members of events happening at the airport. B. Boudreaux shared a Press Release from Phoenix Rising and told of the Headquarter House Ice Cream Social that weekend. B. Items from the Public. P. Ross said he was thinking of building a hangar and operating another FBO. C. Wallace said that item would be discussed by the Board at the Strategic Planning Meeting, he also asked those watching TV at home that if they had something to discuss, to write him or Ray. J. Nicholson suggested they could go to "Access Fayetteville" on the internet and e-mail directly to the airport. • ITEM #7: Discussion Items. 4 • A. Next Airport Board Meeting. The meeting is scheduled for September 11 `h B. Strategic Planning Meeting. The meeting is scheduled for September 91h. R. Boudreaux said he would have the changes made to the Minimum Standards and would e-mail them to the Board so they can be discussed at the meeting. C. Workday and Cookout. R. Boudreaux said this would be for all the tenants and then build an addition, a deck, to the Pilots Briefing Room. The date was tentatively set for October 25`h. W. Jones reminded everyone of the AAOA Conference September 14`h through 16`h noon. Meeting Adjourned, Dave Bowman, Secretary Date • 5 MONTHLY REPORT Director, Aviation and Economic Development Fayetteville, Arkansas August 2003 August began with the FAA Airport Certification Inspection. Bill Mitchell was newly assigned to inspect FYV and this was his maiden voyage. He found two discrepancies that need immediate attention. Both were paint related and will be repaired by October 5, 2003 . When the new runway and taxiway paint was applied at the end of the runway rejuvenation project, yellow was painted over the white. That is incorrect. The white is to cover the yellow on the runway. The second discrepancy was that the pavement had faded so much since the hold lines were applied, that they now need black highlights. The inspection was a new experience for me. We met with Judy Hammond and all of the primary folks that helped to plan the air show to go over this year's production to see what we can improve and to discuss the next year's show. We have reduced our support but still plan to be a major sponsor to promote our airport to the citizens. We have applied for support from all services and have started to schedule acts. Judy will attend ACAS this fall. • We took some of the Rotary exchange students to the Tower for a tour. That is real good public relations tour for kids and adults. If you have anyone interested in aviation that would like a tour, please let me know. My wife was in charge of the.Washington County Historical Society's Ice Cream Social. It went off without a hitch and it was a real Airport Family affair. I was the master of ceremonies and James' band, Marshall Mitchell and the Rockville Rangers, performed as did the Barbara Mashburn Scholarship Foundation singers. I attended the Arkansas Economic Developer's Conference in town. The highlight was a talk by Jim Pickens the Director of Arkansas Department of Economic Development. I have attached a trip report to this monthly report for your information. We opened bids for the Forest Service Fire Tanker Base Taxiway Extension. There was only one bidder and the bid was below the engineering estimate. We have placed the bid approval on the September 16, 2003 City Council agenda. At the agenda session the project was put on the consent agenda. I was the guest speaker at the Fayetteville North side Rotary Club monthly meeting. I spoke about the airport and the great things happening here and the new goals and objectives of the City • developed by the Mayor and the City Council. I have been participating in a City wide committee to develop a new emergency response plan for the City. It was precipitated by the aircraft crash last year near West Fork. Communications was a problem and that is the key focus of the discussions. I ' • Monthly Report August 2003 Page Two The City Directors participated in the City employees' United Way Kickoff program. It was fun for us and I hope fund for the employees and hopefully they will favorably consider contributing to the United Way. Continued to met with the U of A Economic Development Committee chaired by Otto Loewer. We are making progress forming partnerships and in regional programs. We are having twice weekly meetings of the Directors concerning the budget. This year is more complicated since we are talking about what services are core and which are not. I listed all of the airport actions as core responsibilities. We have had many contacts for hangar space and have succeeded with two moving into the FBO Hangar. Executive Air is a Charter Service operating a King Air 200. Mark Myers owns the company and provides qualified pilots to the U of A for their Beech Jet 400 and their King Air 200 as well as the charter service. They will also occupy an office in the lobby of the terminal with good signs to attract customers. We hope that the service grows and creates a lot of activity in the airport terminal. The other is COENCO, a company that manufacturers heating and air conditioning equipment. They fly a King Air 90 all over the country demonstrating their air moving equipment. Two other companies have inquired and could possible move to the airport. A King Air 350 and a King Air 200 could move to the airport in the next few weeks. We are still waiting on the plans for the U of A Hangar so that the project can be advertised. They expect to have them on the street before the end of the month. We could be breaking ground in November. The 60 X 60 hangar project is still in planning as well. We held a pre-construction meeting on the infil project. The contractor expects to have the project done between football weekends so as not to interfere with our aircraft parking plan. We should see some excavation mid-September. Respectfully Submitted, CL6Z7 / • Ray M. Boudreaux Director • FAYETTEVILLE THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS DAN COODY, MAYOR nD TRIP REPORT TO: Mayor Coody Directors FROM: Ray M. Bond eaux DATE: August 17 u 20, 2003 LOCATION: Radisson Hotel and Conference Center, Fayetteville, Arkansas SUBJECT: Arkansas Economic Developers (AED) Conference I attended the AED conference in Fayetteville for the first time this year. It was a valuable conference and gave me an opportunity to meet the movers and shakers in the Economic • Development business in the State. Jim Pickens, Director ADED was in attendance as were many of the staff of the Department. Tim Allen, our ADED contact and project manager was there and we spent some quality time discussing projects. Chancellor White was scheduled to welcome the group but was represented by Bob Smith, Provost. His most interesting comment was that the six year graduation rate of the U of A is 46%. The established goal for 2006 is 66%. Of land giant Universities, U of A ranks 12th in academic quality. He talked about the Walton gift and plans for its use, and the fundraising goals established by the University. The U of A honors school is one of the best in the USA with- many $50,000.00 scholars already selected and enrolled. The scholarship not only covers tuition, books, room and board, it also covers studies abroad and special needs the student might have like computers. Gray Swoope, formerly of Arkansas and now located in Mississippi, spoke about the perspective from outside the State. He relayed that states east of the Mississippi.River have no idea of the competitiveness of Arkansas. In all actuality, Arkansas is very competitive but must sell the bottom line advantages of the State. The ADED presentation provided the final rules developed following the passage of Act 182.

Boudreaux, Director r¢oudreaux@ci.faycttcville.ar.us • The presentation centered on the qualifications to access the programs and the need for many tier 1 counties to partner with higher tier counties in order to access programs for the smaller business or industry. Several Lobbyists from the local area gave their perspective of the 2003 Legislative session. Kenny Hall from the State Chamber, Richard Hudson from the U of A, Kathy Foreaker from SBC and Bob Lamb from Arkansas Western Gas talked about the session and what to expect from the special session concerning the education problems facing the state. They had no answers. Hugh McDonald and Stacy Pittman, from the Governor's Blue Ribbon commission, talked a lot about the education situation and how it might be solved.

Boudreaux, Director rboudreaux@ci.fayetteville.ar.us • Otto Lower and Phil Stafford talked about the U of A Economic Development Program. Beginning with this presentation and for the rest of the conference Partnerships were the key ingredient. Universities are more like churches than businesses. The mission of the UAEDI is to enhance the economic and social well being of the people of Arkansas. Leadership Development for the Mind, Community Development for the Heart, Economic Development for the hands and Educational Development for the feet for a full program. The U of A is racing to prosperity and for breakthrough solutions with the following strategy: Address the real needs of people Pull in all of the partners Harness the power of the U of A Develop ED programs Develop Innovative projects Develop Prospects Develop Prosperity Their sermon was to identify a need, identify the partners, work as a team and prepare people for prosperity. The almost Toyota presentation was deja-vu for me. We were almost UAL at my last location for a major aircraft maintenance operation for United Air Lines. We lost to Indianapolis, Indiana. The Toyota Plant went to San Antonio. Texas has a long relationship with the Japanese. Texas is the single largest consumer of full size trucks. So, Texas won. The team learned that communities need to concentrate on the out years-20 to 30 years in the future. • They need to be responsive to requests for information—answer the questions and be prompt. Consider highlighting the logistics advantages of your location. Logistics is often the tie-breaker. Lastly, follow up ! Jim Pickens spoke of the successes of Arkansas and highlighted that a lot was learned by the Toyota exercise. He mentioned that they were bluffing in many ways but were sure that they could pull it off. He also mentioned that he is "road kill on the Internet super highway." He talked extensively about partnerships and regionalism. He thanked the AED for their support during his tenure and wished all well in the future. Dr. Vibrahan introduced us to the UALR Institute for Economic Advancement. He also touted regionalism. Bob Lamb talked a little about the Partnership that had been formed several years ago to Lobby, Educate and Market. They have dropped the marketing part but the rest is alive and well. He invited the AED to organize a committee to develop a retirement program for Economic Developers that work for communities unable to have retirement benefits.

Boudreaux, Director rboudreaux@ci.fayetteville.ar.us • Overall impression of the conference is that we have a great group of professionals in the State of Arkansas. The new emphasis is going to be to reinforce the partnerships of communities and regions. The new tier system, combined with the partnership concept to be able to access the more flexible benefits of the State programs, are clear evidence of the States move to encourage partnerships. The final impression was that all attendees are of the opinion that the economy is beginning to turn around and communities must be ready and that regionalism and partnerships among communities is the key to success. It was a good conference that we will plan to attend next year. • Aviation and Economic Development Department 4500 South School, Suite F Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 • (479) 718-7642 Ray M.
