provision for any account past due after two months. After

up-to-date and file advanced payment of l20% of his highest prior

result of a number of alarm systems that have been connected to

service. Suggestions were made to him that a Burglar Alarm
Ordinance be adopted.

Officer, County Manager and Captain Willie of the Sheriff's
Department.

burglar alarm noise addressed and also the question of
notification and how to address that without requiring everyone
to get a permit, suggesting a Public Hearing be held before
adoption.
Commissioner Dolan questioned Sec. 6-147. Per~it Required,
whether it meant every alarm system, burglar or fire, requires a
Permit. He thought it should only be required of those alarms
connected to the Sheriff's Department. Commissioner O'Shields
suggested adding to the first sentence of Section 6-147 "system
that ties into the New Hanover County Sheriff's Department."
After a lengthy discussion, it was the consensus of the

DISCUSSION AND APPROVAL OF NEW HANOVER COUNTY AIRPORT INSURANCE
REQUIREMENTS OF FIXED BASE OPERATORS
County Manager Cooper explained the need for revisions of

Base Operators. The requirements have been reviewed and the
Insurance Advisory Committee recommended changes to an exhibit
that will appear at the end of every Fixed Base Operator's
Lease. The two FBO's are generally in agreement and are
complying. The newest operator can comply with these
requirements.
Commissioner 0' Shields asked if these recommendations
are compatable with other Airports having to do with liability
requirements by FBO's. Carlton Alligood stated that the
requirements are not consistent at other airports throughout the
State, that a lot of airports require less. He attempted to
establish the minimum limits which will afford protection to New
Hanover County Airport while not being a hardship on the FBO's.
r
Airport Manager Shackelford recommended that under Schedule
E, Item E the following words be added: minimum amounts "and/or
types~ of insurance... in order to give flexibility in the future
