Mounds View City Council Page 13 <br />Regular Meeting April 24, 1995 <br />the 1985 Pay Equity Law was to make it possible for female <br />dominated classes to be elevated. <br />VOTE: 3 ayes 2 nays (Linke and Quick) Motion Carried <br />REPORTS <br />1. Report of Councilmembers: <br />Councilmember Quick reported that the Ramsey County Board <br />Meetings would now be televised on cable. <br />Councilmember Blanchard: No report. <br />Councilmember Hankner: No report. <br />Councilmember Trude reported that she had attended the <br />Metropolitan Airports Commission hearing at Blaine City <br />Hall. The purpose of the meeting was to present and <br />accept comment on the construction of the air traffic <br />control tower on the airport grounds of the Anoka <br />County/Blame Airport. The issues that were presented <br />concerned the amount of air traffic that would be created <br />by the control tower, along with safety issues. It was <br />felt that the direct contact between the FAA Controller <br />and the aircraft should improve the issue of low-flying <br />aircraft. There is a meeting scheduled for May 2 with <br />the Mounds View Airport Task Force to meet with many of <br />the same MAC officials that were at the Blaine City Hall <br />hearing. <br />Mayor Linke requested clarification regarding the use of <br />FAA Controllers versus contract controllers. <br />Councilmember Trude explained that the use of contract <br />controllers would present another issue because she had <br />asked for assurance from the MAC officials that having <br />someone in the control tower would help eliminate low- <br />flying aircraft in residential areas. The MAC officials <br />said that only FAA has authority to pull licenses and to <br />have penalties brought against people. <br />The Airport Task Force meeting scheduled for May 2 will <br />be a study session for those task force members, although <br />residents are welcome. <br />Report of Mayor Linke: <br />No report. <br />
