Vote set on model aircraft field

The Boulder City Council is expected to vote next week on whether to let a nonprofit group build and operate a radio-controlled model aircraft field on 3.4 acres of city-owned property near the city landfill.

The proposal was introduced during the Tuesday council meeting and set for a vote on April 22.

Under the proposal, the Boulder City Eldorado Valley Flyers would get a five-year lease for the property. The group would not pay rent so long as it builds, maintains and supervises the field.
