AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
OCTOBER 10, 1989
The Meeting was opened by Chairman Charles Mayhew at 5:05 p.m.
with the following Commissioners present: Alexander Craig,
Ronald Russell, Ronald Santos, and E. Foley Vaughan.
The Minutes of the September 26 and October 4, 1989 Meetings were
approved as written.
Mr. Hal Crampton of Coastal Air requested additional space and
an incentive in order to continue his pilot training and aircraft
rental operation through the winter. One incentive discussed was
a discount for bulk purchase of avfuel. This request will be
discussed further at a future meeting.
Attorney David Moretti attended the meeting on behalf of U.P.S.
along with Mr. Therien. They made a presentative of a
relocation of their present facility to the Coastal Air Hangar
~Jones). He discussed permission for an installation of a 6 x 8
foot garage door, relocation of the security fence, and an
additional 4,000 square feet of land behind the hangar.
Authorization to go to the Board of Appeals for storage and
warehousing and sign the HDC permit was granted. The Commission
requested U.P.S. install a freight half-door in the fencing to
prevent trucks from accessing the Airport. They requested a
short-term lease until June 30, 1990 and a long-term lease once
the legal terms of the sale of the hangar are settled. It was
M/S/P to allow U.P.S. a short term sublease from Coastal Air
until June 30, 1990. The Commission also agreed to authorize the
Manager to sign the HDC permits on behalf of U.P.S. and that the
HDC approval for a special permit would not have a certain time
expiration.
At this point, Chairman Mayhew left the meeting and Commission
Santos took the Chair.
It was M/S/P unanimously to support a Town Meeting Article to
extend hangar leases up to thirty years.

COMMISSION MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1989 continued
The restaurant minimum standards were reviewed, improved, and it
was M/S/P to put out to bid as amended.
The Manager was authorized to sign the Paramount Pictures
Corporation Location Agreement, as amended by Town Counsel.
The Commission agreed that when the Town calls for a Special Town
Meeting, the Airport would submit a revised Article for the
bonding of the Second Phase of the Terminal Buildings
Rehabilitation.
Regarding the Toscana Bunker proposal dilemma of having to extend
the existing water line from Macy Lane to the Bunker, the
Commission suggested Toscana take it to the Planning Board and
'explain the project cannot go through with the requirement of the
extension of the water line as recommended by the Fire Chief.
Perhaps the Planning Board could make a concession and make the
roadway narrower, thereby saving Toscana a portion of the money
required for the water line.
The Commission agreed not to attend the Harbor Planning Advisory
Committee meeting tomorrow night but would meet on Thursday to
support the temporary fuel transfer system at the
Conservation Commission meeting.
The Commission reviewed and made comments on a proposed Letter to
the Editor of the Inquirer and Mirror on the 'FBO dispute, and
gave the Manager their approval to submit it.
The meeting adjourned at 7:50 p.m.
