Update 12/1/2019
Dear Aero Valley Airport Property Owners,
An update is long past due. My apologies. I hope most of you have been enjoying our new runway rather than spending time embroiled in airport politics. I also hope you’ve enjoyed the renewed enthusiasm for our airport and aviation in general that has followed. I certainly have. Every time I line up for takeoff, I look down our nearly perfect runway and reflect on my appreciation for all those who made it possible. One cannot help but notice the growing enthusiasm for our airport’s well-being ever since our runway was completed on time and under budget.
Despite the many overwhelmingly positive effects our new runway has created, much work remains. Five years ago, the board started an education campaign to shed light on both the nature of the challenges we faced and our strategy of how to deal with them. Our understanding of the situation has only improved since then. In light of the inquiries we’ve received from several property owners and potential property owners, more education is necessary. Perhaps a better word is awareness.
Let me be perfectly clear: The day you closed on your hangar, you obtained the right to drive your vehicle on established roadways to your hangar, taxi your airplane on established taxiways, and use the runway for aviation purposes. You did not need a license to exercise these rights. PERIOD.
After reading this brief update, please click on the FAQ button below. The information presented should answer most of your questions. Every answer is backed by facts and documents in the public record. If you have a question not addressed in the FAQ but should be, please let us know.
The buttons below will also take you to the airport's governing documents. In each case, the recitals describe in detail the reasons for the document and its purpose. You can access the signed, notarized, and recorded documents on the Denton County website here: http://denton.tx.publicsearch.us. The document numbers are 2019-136773 and 2019-63922 respectively. We used the unrecorded versions in the links below because the image quality of the exhibit pages is much better than in the scanned recorded documents.
We look forward to seeing you at our annual meeting on Thursday, December 5, 2019 starting at 7:00 pm at the Tarrant County College ERMA C. JOHNSON HADLEY NORTHWEST CENTER OF EXCELLENCE FOR AVIATION, TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS located at 2301 Horizon Drive, Fort Worth, Texas 76177.
If you cannot make the meeting, please fill out and email your proxy to AeroValleyAirport@gmail.com. You can designate any board member (or property owner attending the meeting) as your proxy. The proxy form will open in a new window from this link: 2019 Proxy Form. Board members are Steve Whatley, Larry Martin, Doug Reeves, Carey Sharp, Gary Platner, and Eric Branyan. If you are giving your proxy to someone other than a board member, just cross out the references to a board member on the proxy form.
Sincerely,
Mitchell R. Whatley, JD
President
