According to Amy Nasta, city clerk, the advisory board will consist of five members tasked with advising the council on matters pertaining to the growth and improvement of the airport.
The board will advise the council on acquisition of property, construction and reconstruction of airport facilities, the institution of programs and procedures which will increase usage of airport facilities and review and make recommendations on the airport master plan.
