Airlines were looking to up-gauge their aircraft and increase the seats. Mr.Phillips stated that there were currently five(5) gates. During the weekends there might be up to eight (8) aircraft on the ground at the same time which creates problems in a number of ways. Mr. Spritzer along with the data gathering they did at the terminal,they also observed the land side. They counted traffic,people, and vehicles. They were focusing on the commercial vehicle operations. The parking was in a state of transition due to the implementation of paid parking. As most of the traffic entered from the east end of the terminal they would be considering if there should be a reconfiguration of the roadway system that would move some of the traffic away from the curb front. They would be back in a few months to present an update on the plan. Mr.Ritten spoke about the data collection and community research.
