The Minutes of the October 6, 1986 meeting were unanimously

Messrs. Garrity and Pilla, of the engineering firm Edwards and

accomplishments and expertise of their firm. They are one of the
engineering firms being considered for our future airport projects.
Miss Sarah Alger, attorney for the Nantucket Windmill Gift Shop,
attended the meeting to inform the Commission that her client
would like to enhance its shop appearance by making improvements
and are requesting a longer lease. As the gift shop location will
be affected during the joining of the terminal and tower buildings,
it was agreed that the lease would continue on a month-to-month
basis. Mr. Conlon was informed that no construction would begin
before next fall. He was also assured that if space is available,
the gift shop would be included in the proposed reconstruction.
Attorney Reade, representing Young's Bicycle Shop, attended the
meeting, again requesting Airport space for his client to run a
rent-a-car concession. The Manager informed the Commission that
Colonial Car has reached no firm conclusion in whether they will
remain at Nantucket Airport and that he had informed them they
could not sell the lease space. Mr. Reade expressed his client's
continuing interest in operating at the Airport.
Chuck Harris, of Nantucket Airlines, informed the Commission that
he would like to expand his charter service to a scheduled,
commuter carrier. He plans to serve the Nantucket/Hyannis market.
He requested office space for his operation and indicated he would
like to be located in the terminal building. He stated that Gull
Air has leased the entire terminal building, but was not
utilizing this space in the winter. It was agreed to turn this
matter over to the Manager for his resolution.
A similar request from Cape Air was also turned over to the Manager.
