Avports in Westfield

Read this in the Republican below. Can someone in Worcester please invite John Harden from Worcester to come to ORH and look into the possibility of them taking over ORH?


WESTFIELD - The city's Airport Commission wants to negotiate a two- to three-week extension with AvPORTS, of Teterboro, N.J., to continue managing operations at Barnes Municipal Airport while it considers the appointment of a manager.

The three-member commission sent a formal request to the New Jersey firm on Thursday requesting negotiations for the extension to allow local officials more time in finding a replacement for Christopher J. Willenborg. He resigned as manager last month to become executive director of the state Aeronautical Commission.

AvPORTS has managed the local airport since Jan. 9 under a $3,000 weekly contract that is due to expire at the end of the month.
