Manager Peterson added the importance of meeting the bid deadlines of this fast-track project as to not jeopardize the FAA funding. Several initial ideas were discussed regarding design, heat and functionality including a basement under the office side of the building and the use of solar panels. During discussion, the group eliminated the choice of a metal building, and had different opinions about block versus a traditional Nantucket building. Manager Peterson reported the HDC has verbally supported the building looking like a firehouse. Discussion moved to location and the desire to have drive thru bays. Several options were discussed to allow this to happen including the moving of the perimeter fence and gates and the rotation of the building.
