Mr. Thomas Nicholas, Manager, Operations, responded to questions, and explained that the Airport will lose approximately 600 parking spaces while the parking area is being worked on. During December 15th through December 30th, parking will be handled with the help of public relations - they will go into a period of high publicity and will assist the public with finding alternative means to get to and from the airport. Mr. Robert M. Ball, Executive Director, explained that Staff will establish contingency plans, perhaps by closing Paul Doherty Road and utilizing it as parking space. Another aid will be to relocate the employees from the employee lot to Cargo Road. After further discussion, Mr. Taylor moved the item, seconded by Mr. Lazzell, called and carried with Mr. Thimlar absent.
