| Governor Doyle Approves $918,000 Project at Airport Governor Jim Doyle has approved a $918,150 project to install an instrument landing system (ILS) and a partial parallel taxiway at the Stevens Point Municipal Airport. The Governor's action releases $918,150 in federal funds to complete the project. According to Mike Gabor, airport engineering specialist with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, the federal funds will be used to complete an environmental assessment, provide design and construction engineering, provide approach clearing and land easements, and construct and install the landing system. The instrument landing system will provide needed guidance for aircraft into the airport during marginal weather conditions. Many local businesses will benefit from the enhanced instrument landing system. The project is expected to begin in May, 2008 and will be completed by October, 2008. Stevens Point Municipal Airport consists of two runways that together accommodate some 37,000 aircraft take-offs and landings each year. A newly completed business/industrial park south of the city has attracted businesses that depend on the airport to conduct their business operations. |

| City Meeting Videos Available Online In order to provide you with even better access to records of public meetings, the City of Stevens Point is now making its meeting videos available here on this web site. For many years, Stevens Point has cablecast government meetings such as Plan Commission, Common Council, Finance and Personnel Committees, Board of Public Works, Park Board, and others on Community Television, Channel 3. Now those same videos are also available here at StevensPoint.com. If you are interested in a particular agenda item of any given meeting, you don't have to watch the rest of the meeting leading up to that item. The meeting videos are indexed so that, by clicking a text link underneath the video, you can cause the video player to jump to the specific agenda item you wish to see. As soon as they are available, each meeting's minutes are displayed alongside the video player so you can read them while you watch or listen to the video. Until the minutes of the meeting are available, the agenda will be displayed in the same location. All of the meeting videos we have available for January through the first two weeks of April have been added to the site, and new videos will be added within a day or two of each upcoming meeting throughout the year. In addition to playing our meetings several times each on Community Television, Channel 3, and making agendas and minutes available here on our Web site, we hope that integrating those videos, agendas, and minutes and making them available here will help you stay informed about how your city government is working for you.
