CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS a municipal corporation By b `/ \/e Yl C UC u -,v DON TRUMBO, MAYOR CONTRACTOR By J. A. VIZZIER Planning Consultant The City Manager presented Administrative Memo #117 discussing:Fixed Base Operator Lease For Drake Memo No. 117 Field, toThiashasciin reference to Administrative Memo #115 , spread on page 294 of Book H, CITY (Referring to COUNCIL PROCEED(JRE and discussed at the last regular meeting on Monday, August 5, 1968.) Memo No. 115, Administrative Memo #117 was spread on the minutes and reads as follows. Page 294) FIXED BASE OPERATOR - DRAKE FIELD A the August 4, 1968 meeting of the City Board preliminary discussion was entered into an a proposed fixed base operator's lease at Drake Field. You will recall that we already have a Fixed Base Operator license agreement at Drake Field with Ray Ellis d/b/a Fayetteville Flying Service. The proposal out- lined in Administrative Memo #115 was submitted by Noark Commander Aviation, Inc. for lease of four (4) acres south and west of the present terminal area. At this meeting, you postponed action and requested further information. As far as general aviation activity in Northwest Arkansas and Drake Field is concerned, information is very scanty. The Regional Planning Commission has recently accepted Burns-Mctlonnell's initial report on the Regional Airport Study. Included in this report was a section on General Aviation. I am attaching pertinent pages of this report to the memorandum. You will note projections for General Aviation to 1990 at the Regional Air^ort and other existing airports on pages V-20, 21, 22 and Figures 4 and 5. We know that General Aviation has been growing at drake Field, and, based on Burns -McDonnell projections and assumptions, they will continue to grow in spite of a Regional Airport. I have surveyed some nine cities in Arkansas and Missouri as to fixed base operations at their airports. You will note some larger cities and sogte sm_albercities thansFayetteville. Results on number of Fixed Base Operators licensed at various airports are as follows: City No. of F.B.O. on Airport Hot Springs, Arkansas .2 E1 Dorado, Arkansas 6 Fort Smith, Arkansas 2-4 Jonesboro, Arkansas 1 Pine Bluff, Arkansas 2 Springfield, Missouri 3 Columbia, Dissouri 2 Joplin, Missouri 2 Little Rock, Arkansas 4 Fayetteville, Arkansas 1 As far as gasoline sales are concerned, our license agreement excludes allsales from the local $0.01 tax to commercial airlines. The general aviation gas sold by Fayetteville Flying Service has remained somewhat stable during the past few years. We do not yet have any payments in 1968 to reflect whether there was an increase in gas sales from 1967. If the Board considers another Fixed Base Operator for Drake Field,.I would recommend a lease agreement with terms as outlined in Administrative Memo #115. I would further recommend the addition of the following: (1) Facilities and/or property could not be subleased during term of agreement without prior approval of City. (2) The Fixed Base Operator shall pay the City a minimum payment of $150 per month beginning not later than six months after execution of agreement, but sooner if facilities occupied and operated prior to that time. The minimum chafge should be deducted from the total of other payments required. Such a fixed base operator's agreement could be prepared for your approval on September 3, 1968. Authorized preparation Director McFerran moved that the City Attorney and City Manager be and they are here by authorized of Fixed Air Base to prepare both contracts i. e. Fayetteville Flying Service ( Ray Ellis) and for Noaek Commander Operator Contracts. Aviation Inc.

APPROVED: PO -VL 4�A DON TRUMBO, MAYOR ATTEST: A 0.0 • f e� The City Manager introduced and, at the request of the mayor, read a proposed ordinance in its entireity for the first time entitled, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 13-7 OF THE FAYETTEVILLE CODE OF ORDINANCES TO PERMIT FIRING OF RIFLES AND PISTOLS WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS BY ORGANIZED RIFLE OR PISTOL CLUBS WHERE RANGE APPROVED BY POLICE CHIEF, CERTIFIED INSTRUCTOR IS PRESENT AND SUCH ACTIVITY IS OTHER= WISE IN CONFORMANCE WITH ZONING LAWS AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A DISTURBANCE OF THE PEACE; AND TO REQUIRE MAINTENANCE OF PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE, AND RELATED MATTERS". No further action was taken at this time and the ordinance was left on the first reading. The City Attorney reported that he had received an opinion from the Attorney General of the state of Arkansas in regard to a Referendum Petition on Ordinance 1603, vacating a portion of alley in Putman's Addition to the city of Fayetteville, Arkansas, which was requested by the Board of Directors at its regular meeting on July 1, 1968. The opingon of the Attorney General was spread on the minutes and reads as follows: Mr. Hugh R. Kincaid City Attorney Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 Dear Mr. Kincaid: I am in receipt of your letter dated July 3, 1968, wherein you state the following: The Board of Directors of the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas have authorized me.to request a ruling from your office pertaining to Amemdment 7 to the Constitution of Arkansas, and implementing statute Ark. Stat. Ann. 19-717 (1967 C$m. Supp.). The following situation exists. On May 20, 1968, after public notice and a public hearing, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. 1603, vacating a portion of an alley in Putman's Addition of the City of Fayetteville. This action was thken pursuant to the provisions of Ark. Stat, Ann. 19-3825, et seq. Thereafter, within the 31 day period prescribed by local ordinance, a petition was filed with the City Clerk requesting a referendum on Ordinance 1603. Two questions have developed as a result: 1 C 1 C Opinion of General. i 1 1 of Attorney General 1. Is Ordinance No. 1603 of the type subject to referendum under the provisions of Amendment 7 to the Constitution of Arkansas? 2. How many signatures are qequired for the referendum petition? Amendment 7 of the Constitution of Arkansas provides that 15% of the legal voters of any municipality may order the referendum and states that the number of signatures required upon any petition shall be computed upon the total votes cast for the office of mayor in the last preceeding general election. Fayetteville has a city manager form of government and accordingly does not elect a mayor at the general election. Under the managerform the mayor is chosen from among the elected members of the Board of Directors. Ark. Stats. Ann. Section 19-717 (1967 Cum. Supp.) provides that in cities organized under the manager form the number of signatures required upon a referendum petition shall be computed upon the highest vote'cast at the last preceeding general election for any position on the Board of Directors. In the last preceeding general election the incumbent Directors ran unopposed, and under the provisions of Ark. Stats, Ann. Sec. 3-1021, the ballots were not tabulated. Moreover, the ballots are no longer available. There were no other municipal rades in the general election, but there was a proposal on the ballot to annex a large area to the City which was submitted to the City electorate by the Board of Directors. The vote tabulation on this question is available and, as well, the vote tabulations for the office of Govenor and other contested state and county offices. Earlier in the same year (1966) there was a special election at which the Board od Directors were initially elected following reorganization to a manager form government; the vote tabulation for the special election is available. idment 7 of the Arkansas Constitution provides in part: . . . The initiative and referendum powers of the people are hereby further reserved to the local voters of each municipality and county as to all local, special and municipal legislation of every character . . . (Emphasis ours) The Supreme Court in Scroggins v. Kerr, 217 Ark. 137, 228 S.W. 2d 995 (1950) stated that not all ordinances enacted by city councils come under the head of "municipal legislation," and that Amendment 7 reserves'to the voters no power of referendum under the quasi-judicial or administrative acts of city councils. The Court further stated: The crucial test fdr determining what is legislative and what is administrative is whether the ordinance is one enacting a new law, or one executing a law already enacted which authorizes the very act provided for by a later resolution or ordinance, then there is no right to have a referendum on the new measure. It is not a new law, but only a procudural device for administering an old law. the test quoted in ScroRAins v. Kerr, supra, that if the interest owned by the municipality the $300 quoted above then it was subject to referendum. the facts submitted, it is the opinion of this office that Ordinance 1603 is subject to referendum the provisions of Amendment 7 to the Constitution of Arkansas. reaching soy decision I 'did take note of Ark. Stat. Ann. § 17-1205 et seq. (Supp: 1967). wever, these sections have never been subjected to judicial construction with respect to Amendment 2. would call your attention to Cochran v. Black, 240 Ark. 393, 400 S.W.2d 280 (1966) where the Supreme urt stated: We are firmly committed to a liberal construction of constitutional Amendment No. 7, bearing in mind the purpose of its adoption and the bbjectite sought to accomplish. This amendment provides a necessary and potent protection against ill-advised, oppressive or improvident legislative functions, and actions of the electors thereunder, in attempting to obtain relief, should not he thwarted by strict or technical construction. We are neither authorized nor remotely inclined to disturb the proper application of this wholesome constitutional reservation of power to the people. I have been unable to find any statute or case bearing upon the second question that you pose. With this in mind, my conclusion will be advisory in nature only. Assuming that it is impossible to strictly compl; with Ark. Stat. Ann. § 19-717 (Supp. 1967), i.e., by determining the number of signatures required compute upon the highest vote cast at the last preceding General Election for any position on the Board of Direcbors of a municipality, then the persons initiating the petitions must assure themselves that the number of signatures obtained would be equal to or exceed 15% of the highest vote cast in the 1966 General Election for any position on the Board of Directors in the City of Fayetteville. Therefore, with the facts as they have been presented in your letter of inquiry, I would recommend two possible approaches (1) Compute the 15% upon the total number of votes cast in the Govenor ss race in Fayetteville in the 1966 General Election. (2) Compute the 15% upon the total number of votes cast in the special election in 1966 at which the Board of Directors were initially elected. . It would be best to follow whichever approach that would assure a total number of votes that would qqual or exceed the highest vote cast at the -last preceding General Election for any position on the Board of Directors of Fayetteville. The Supreme Court in Townsend v. McDonald, 184 Ark. 273, 429S.W. 2d 410 (1931) states: Substance is more important than form in the application•of our initiative and referendum laws. Substantial compliance with the statues governing referendum petitions is,all that is necessary. Under the facts submitted, a strict compliance with Ark. Stat. Ann. § 19-717 is impossible and I am of t opinion that the purpose of such an amendment would be effectuated following one of the approaches outlined here in above. I trust this sufficiently answers your inquiry. If you should have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call on us. Very truly yours, JOE PURCELL Attorney General JERRY D. PINSON Assistant Attorney General 1: C1Clerk'S Report on Previous: _Elections. Ci on ficate of Clerk on c tion The City Clerk reported that 6,073 votes were cast in the Govenors'race at the general election of 1966 in the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas and that 3,145 votes were cast in the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas for Board of Directors at the special election in 1966. The City Clerk read his certificate on the number of signatures on the referendum petition, said certificate being spread on the wAftutes as follows: CERTIFICATE' I, George J. Davis, City Clerk of the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas hereby certify that the petition for referendum on Ordinance No. 1603 of May 20, 1968, filed in my office, contains on its face 455 signatures; that based on the number of signatures of legal voters required by Arkansas law on such a petition in order to call a referendum on such an ordinance (as indicated by the advisory opinion of the Attornev General, dated August 2, 1968, i.e.,)15%of the total number of votes cast in the Govenor's race in Fayetteville in the 1966 General Election, or 154% of the total number of votes cast for the Board member receiving the most votes in the special'election of 'the iHI£IAL Board of Directors in 1966) that said petition on its face contains an insufficient number of signatures to constitute a sufficient petition for referendum. Further, I certify that I have examined said signatures and of the 455 signatures appearing on said petition only 399 of said signatures can be certified as valid legal signatures for such a petition. r Director McFerran moved that a public hearing on the referendum petition to bidinance No. 1603 be held in the Director's room in the City Administration Building at the regular meeting of the Board of Directors on Monday, September 76, 1968 and•that the'City Clerk be and he is hereby authorized and directed to cause a notice of the public hearing to be published in the Northwest Arkansas Times, a daily newspaper printed in Washington County Arkansas, and having a general circulation in the city of Fayetteville Arkansas, one time, not less than five days prior to the time set for the public hearing.
