NEETING
March 27, 1989
Meeting was called to order by Chairman Mayhew at 4:30 p.m.
Commissioners attending were Alexander Craig, Ronald Russell,
Ronald Santos, and E. Foley Vaughan. Also in attendance were
Manager Jo-ann N. Norris, Airfield Supervisor Bill Welch and
Secretary Myrtle Eldridge.
Manager Norris presented and opened, the bids for a new heating
system in the terminal building. The bids were as follows:
New England Refrigeration
Culkins oil Burner Service
David Hatts
$17,950.
15,500.
15,100.
Manager Norris recommended a postponement of the bid award. She
indicated that several individuals had informed her of a better,
less expensive means to correct the existing problem and that our
present system seemed to be temporarily stabilized. The motion
was M/S/P to accept the Manager's recommendation.
The Commission Sub-Committee, consisting of Chairman Mayhew,
Commissioner Ronald Santos and Manager Norris, met with Carl
Jelleme (TOSCANA, INC.) and his Attorney, David Moretti
concerning the proposed lease after the completion of the paving
of the Bunker Road. The final proposal agreed to was as follows:
18 years - rent free
2 years - current market rate
20 year lease,
with the buildings remaining the property of Mr. Jelleme. Mr.
Jelleme also was informed that soil/loam could not be removed
from the area, however, they could erect the cement plant 12'
below grade. The excess material must be used on the development
of the interior roadways only. Manager Norris reminded Mr.
Jelleme of the required 21-E report for the EPA having to filed
prior to commencing work and again at the conclusion of the
lease.

MEETING MARCH 27, 1989 continued
The Commission appeared agreeable to this proposal with the
recommendation that Manager Norris verify agreement with Town
Counsel, as it appears to be a "bartering" situation. It is duly
recorded that Commissioner Vaughan abstained from this discussion
due to a possible conflict of interest.
The FIXED BASE OPERATOR LICENSE was presented again, for
additional discussion. A motion was made to reapprove this form
after an increase in the term (Page 2, Section 2) from one year
to five years and deleting "an additional one-year (1)", from
that Section. Also deleted from the form was Section 14-b, on
Page 6. The motion to approve this form, after appropriate
changes, was M/S/P.
A lengthy discussion of the LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR AIRCRAFT
FUELING/TRANSIENT PARKING & TIE DOWN BUSINESS followed.
Commissioner Russell's graphic presentation of the financial
aspect of the turnover of the fueling/transient parking & tie
down business indicated a substantial loss of Airport revenue.
Commissioners Craig and Santos questioned the accuracy of the
figures presented. Commissioner Russell's motion to reject the
License Agreement died due to lack of a second. Commissioner
Santos presented a motion to accept this form as amended and the
motion was seconded by Commissioner Craig. This motion was not
approved, due to a lack of a majority vote.
Under Operations, Manager Norris presented the loam bids, the
highest bid being from HOLDGATE LANDSCAPING at 13 cents per cubic
yard. The consensus of the Commission was not to accept any bid
at this time and to table the subject.
The change of meeting nights to Monday from Wednesday was then
discussed, with Manager Norris indicating that Secretary Eldridge
would be unable to continue as Secretary at the Commission
Meetings due to the change of evenings. The Commission
recommended that Administrative Aide John McDonald be approached
to replace Secretary Eldridge.
A motion to adjourn this meeting at 7:45 p.m. was M/S/P.
Respectfully submitted,
