JOINT CITY-COUNTY MEETING ..y ? Secretary City Council Chambers Wilminqton, N. C. 3:30 P.M. April 11, 1962 I ? ASSEMBLY A joint meeting of the City Council the Council Room at 3:30 P. M. today with the Counciimen Hannah S. Block, E. S. Capps, Jr., C. F. Churchill, F. A. Downing, Director of Commerce and Chairman J. M. Hall, Jr., Commi Jr. NOTICE - and the County Commissioners was held in following present: Mayor O.O. Allsbrook, J. E. L. Wade and Acting City Manager the City Bureau of Rates, Industry and ssioners Peter H. Braak and John Van B. Metts, This special joint meeting uias called verbally by the Chairman and each member notified at the regular semimonthly meeting of the Commissioners held on P.pril 2nd,1962. PURPOSE - The meeting was called to order by Mayor O. O. Allsbrook i•aho stated that the purpose was to consider the action of the Civii Aeronautics Board in grantino an order allowing temporary suspension of service at Fayetteville, New Bern and Wilmin,ton by the P]ational Airlines, Incorporated. , / DISCUSSION Nayor Allsbrook recognized Mr. F. A. Downing and asked him to explain the urg- ? ency of this matter. He said that the C. A. B. had changed its rules and practice by re- `ducing the time for.filing requests for hearings from 30 days to 20 days and that the dead line for requesting a reconsideration of their order authorizing the temporary sus- pension of service at Fayetteville, New Bern and R^:ilminoton by the National Airlines, Incorporated is Monday, April 9th. Unless a request for the reconsideration of this mat- ter is within the hands of the C. A. B. by that time the order will become permanent after the 90 day temporary suspension. He is of the opinion that this order is unfair to the City of Wilmington and New Hanover Connty Airport and therefore suegests that an attorriey be employed to represent the City and County in asking for a stay of this order and requests a hearing be set at which time i,:re could present our reasons for our conten- tion. Since Mr. Oliver Carter has ably represented the City and County in the past and is thoroughly familiar with the terms used and the rules and regulations of the Civil Aeronautics Board, he recommends that he be employed to present this matter. By common consent, the joint Board authorized him to cali ivir. Carter and allow him to revi'ew his thinking on the matter. Mr. Carter took a very dim view of the matter and reminded the Board that it would mean that he would have to reverse his pleadings which were made at the time he represented the City and County in the hearing on the•Piedmont Airlines case. I Actualiy he would be asking the C. A. B. to rescind its order authori2ing the suspension of its service and for them to vacate that order of the National Airlines in their allo- c2tion for permanettt suspension and asked that the case be set for a hearing. He held little hopes for much success in the matter but stated that he would be glad to represent ? the City and Count.y although due to the pressure of time he tirould be forced to employ an attorney in Washington throuah whom he could work in filino the petition. He pointed out that there were several thines that could be done in the petition for a re-hearine on the matter such as: (1) Order No. E- 18125 is Unfair to the City of t•Jilmington and the County of New Hanover ..(2) The Grant of the Tempora.ry Suspension Will Hopelessly Pre- judice the City of :1ilmington in Opposing the Application for Deletion o.f the Point from National's Certificate... (3) National's Traffic in and Out of Wilmington Falls Within the Area of the So-Called Baltimore Rule..... (4) Order No E- 18125 is Totally Unrealistic in Its Assessment of Inconvenience to Wilmington Traffic Resulting Interest Does Atot Re- quire the Proposed Suspension..... (6) The National Application Should be Set Down for Hearing:.... In addition, he pointed out that the National Airlines, Incorporated would likely file a petition for an amendment for their certificate to allow a permanent suspen- sion of service but that the traffic potential had not been reduced is an indisputable fact and that in allowing Piedmont to inaugurate their service did not replace the segments discontinued by n?ational. COIITENSATIONT The matter of a fee tiaas discussed and vr. Carter frankly informed the Board he had named a flat fee in the former cases, out of which he had paid his own expenses and found that he had lost money personally. Since this sort of matter was indefinite in its scope of time required to handle, he would much prefer for them to trust him to set a reasonable attorney's fee for the work he aceomplished.
