4y� Condition # 6: There was a consensus to incorporate the construction. schedule ; referred to in the July 8, 1982, Minutes as a condition to the Special Use Per- mit. Mr. Luce, Planning Staff, read the construction schedule: The airport construction will. be started within one year of the final approval and all construction will be completed within two years of its initiation. Phase I will be completed ninety days after the completion of the runway; Phase II will be started with in six months after the start of construction of Phase I; Phase III will be completed within two years of the completion of Phase II. /Condition # 5 is the construction schedule;] Condition # 7: There was much discussion as to whether or'not the runway should be bonded as 'are public improvements. There was some feeling that without the runway there was no airport and that such a contingency was covered by the imposition of condition # 5 specifying the construction schedule. The develop- er, on the advice of the County Attorney, was asked whether he wodld rather have a time limit placed on the runway construction or whether he would rather have to post a bond for the runway construction. Mr. Hazard: ...It would be difficult to operate an airport without a runway. So if you look at it from that standpoint instead of dwelling on all of the what ifs and everything. If you were building 1-40, what if you had put a limit on I-40? You know you can't do something like that...How do I know when its going to rain? Or whether the equipments going to break down? Or what? So you're asking questions that are impossible to answer...And you have to assume that if we want to build an airport that we will build a runway. I..ah, you have to take that on face value. And we do want the runway in there as soon as possible; because we can't make any money until there's a runway.... Oh, we don't want to post a bond for the construction of anything except what you would require another developer to do. Now if you make a man do a subdivision and make him post a bond for all the houses, we'll post a bond for the runway. There was a consensus among the Board members to place a bond on all public improvements as outlined in Planning Board recommendation # 7 but i to place a one year construction limit on the runway rather than requiring the developer to post bond for the runway. That is, one year after the pro- ... I jest is begun, the runway must be completed. Mr. Hazard: "One year is fine...If we can't make it in a year, we won't make it but the one year is fine. I wouldn't feel comfortable and would be hesitant with anything less than that...." /Condition # 6 is the posting of the bonds for the public improvements and the additional time imposition on the runway construction.] I
