Lori Roach stated the multilevel terminal building was a wonderful concept but it is a long range project. Mike Adcock recommended a special session on long range planning for the airport. Bob O’Connor expressed concern that construction of the new Terminal building on the West side of the Airport would create a feeling of isolation among the tenants.
