Committee reports: Aircraft rental rate is going up. $175 is too much. Looking into the fuel costs to see a rise or fall, Disaster preparedness, no plans to use the airport. Search and rescue, not a thing for the BFC unless its under the members prerogative.

We have approx 2100 gallons of 100LL fuel remaining and need to place another order in the next month or two. NFP 407
