NOTES FROM JUNE 5, 1989 MEETING
Mayor Williams: The desire of the Council is that the Airport and
Harbor Commissions remain separate and that the two commissions take an
active roll in the development and operation of their areas.
Mayor Williams: One of the first targets will be membership for the
Airport Commission. There are several, members who would like to take
an active roll, however because of temporary job situations, cannot
always attend all meetings. One new member to replace Mr. Irwin is
urgently needed. Chairman Sun~ers and Secretary Loper are assigned the
task of recruiting one new member by the next Council meeting,
Wednesday's Council meeting.
Administrative Support- Chairman Summers expressed an urgent need for
secretarial/adminsitrative support to carry out the wishes of the
Commission, to ensure, proper notification goes to Council or
administrative staff, and that minutes and reports are done in a more
timely manner. The reco~endation of Mayor Williams and Chairman
Summers is for Janet Loper to attend the meetings and perform the
secretarial duties.

Ernst. Chairman Summers cited an example and felt that Mr. Ernst has
done an admirable job and his continued input is invaluable.
