Good Housekeeping

As many of our hangar tenants may know, we received an inspection of all County buildings by the Fire Marshal a few months ago. As a result, a number of code and License Agreement violations were discovered and now need immediate attention. This inspection was long overdue, and we appreciate the assistance in trying to keep the airport environmentally-safe. The more serious problems involve the storage of unauthorized or excessive amounts of hazardous materials, the construction and use of paint booths, fiberglass aircraft construction and the storage of too many flammable materials (household storage and “junk”) in the hangars. We anticipate another visit from the Fire Marshal to coincide with our semi-annual hangar inspection sometime in the month of August. We expect most of the violations to be resolved before that time. With a little help from an old spaghetti western movie title, the photos will give you a general view of what we refer to as “The Good” hangar (pictured top left), the “The Bad” hangar (pictured bottom left), and “The Ugly” hangar (picture inappropriate). We encourage all tenants to try and emulate the practices of the occupants of “The Good” hangar. General good housekeeping habits and attention to the requirements in the County’s License Agreement should prevent these violations from occurring in the future.
