New
Airport Gate Card
Attention all SMKA Members: Santa Maria Airport
Security is replacing the punch key entry gate system with a new magnetic card system. In efforts
to track and restrict access to airport property, a new magnetic card will be required to Enter and Exit
through the gate. The airport has put strict rules in place such as no tailgating. If a card
was not used to gain entrance, the new security system will not allow that card to exit, thus all members must use the
card to enter and exit the airport property.
Unfortunately, the Santa Maria Airport does charge a small fee for each of these magnetic cards.
Every member must have their own card and pay the Santa
Maria Airport $20 Airport Gate Card fee. Lost cards will result
in a $50 Card Replacement Fee. Entry and Exit from the track will
require this card.
All 2008 SMKA members will receive a form in the mail the week
of March 24th for the Airport Gate Card. We ask all members to promptly fill out this form and attach their
payment. The SMKA club investigated absorbing the cost of these
newly required cards for the members, however at this time this is not financially possible. SMKA
apologizes for this inconvenience and unexpected additional fee.
