Safety committee flags trees near runway; county to arrange removal before leaf-out
Summary
The Safety Committee reported an obstruction of trees near Runway 10-28; Yates County Highway said crews were unaware that work was required. Sarah Purdy coordinated with Friendly Dodge to secure an easement and the committee plans removal before leaves appear.
The Safety Committee reported an obstruction issue: trees adjacent to Runway 10-28 that could become hazardous when they leaf out. The minutes record that Yates County Highway indicated they were unaware of required work; Sarah Purdy secured an easement with Friendly Dodge to allow removal work to proceed.
Committee members emphasized timing: the trees are not currently a hazard because they have no leaves, but the work needs to occur before the growing season to avoid a renewed hazard. The council noted brush clearing outside the perimeter fence is conducted only when county crews are available and that Leslie Church will advise on scheduling.
The minutes do not record direct quotes from the Safety Committee; the action items are scheduling and coordination with county crews and private property easement holders.
