The airport manager reported deposits for April 2025 and itemized receipts from tenant and landing fees. In the presentation the manager said the month’s deposits totaled $45,742.35; the manager later stated the total to the treasurer’s office for the month was $35,742.35. The manager also reported first-quarter 2025 landing fees from Flight Level Aviation of $6,775.20 and $1,350 from Boston Executive (as recorded in the meeting). The commission noted that the Town budget for FY26 had been passed at the town meeting and that the airport has FY26 funds available.

Under new business the airport manager said 11 commercial permit holders had submitted applications, fees and proof of insurance and recommended approving them en masse for FY26. A motion to approve all 2026 commercial permits was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. The manager confirmed that all applications, fees and liability insurance certificates were on file.

The commission approved the 2026 permits by voice vote; no individual roll-call tallies were recorded in the meeting transcript. The airport manager’s report and permit approvals were later followed by the Cape Air presentation and a separate permit action specific to Cape Air.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Airport Commission 5.21.25","oneSentenceSummary","The North Airport Commission approved mass renewal of 2026 commercial business permits after the airport manager reported April deposits and confirmed FY26 budget funding from the town meeting.","taxTitle","Town of Norwood, Norfolk County, Massachusetts","taxId",52806,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6641930,"Cape Air approved to start seasonal Norwood service to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard",1528,288000,1816000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3445361-6d9db1149b81cde61fbf9a676898bff8&start=288&end=1816","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3445361-6d9db1149b81cde61fbf9a676898bff8/thumbnail_288000.jpg","/articles/6641930/Town-of-Norwood/Norfolk-County/Massachusetts/Cape-Air-approved-to-start-seasonal-Norwood-service-to-Nantucket-and-Marthas-Vineyard","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6641930-f2e0b4a6e976f48e91ce2ed46dbe5490/orig.mp4?Expires=1771207551&Signature=I09Km9hfgoqNY6-ZO1VrAyOWU0OMUCE960nk~gWydcJVE1cSNWfmQPxWKqJuzKKNqKmYgmmRmdNLWs-iCg0yhCYbesZxHJB4roeCPvQe4pBuf8Rx7xvxDw2DoTgbnV1YLXPkCUetTqM85D-YKoXyBEugWfAksiIRzm5T2YI9aNl3nNF3RKn991IcPXgYklahTIp9WDt9CKWLOLYZDYUKvcR6hvQE1y4VPJbeLV5UIgnAfI1r3Ev3MFdKN5Tcln~k-pLAA7fgICuy5sNKNwFJbQlSklwcxgeVLZg3f4HUWMh6daw1rdjLKika3YsdoY0vFTknhyV4gPXphzkIwyzxfQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The North Airport Commission voted May 21, 2025, to grant Cape Air a commercial permit to operate seasonal scheduled flights from Norwood to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard.

Cape Air representatives told the commission they propose scheduled departures on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays with two round trips during the service days, and that Flight Level Aviation would provide ground handling at Norwood. Chuck Ferreira, Vice President of Corporate and Airport Affairs for Cape Air, said the carrier would staff the operation locally and follow federal security requirements for small-aircraft operations.

The proposal matters because it would provide a local air alternative to traveling to Logan International Airport or taking ferries. Matt Reinhart, Vice President of Airport Services for Cape Air, said Norwood is a “natural access point” for island traffic and cited demand patterns to both Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket.

Cape Air described equipment and operations planned for the route. The carrier said it expects to use the Tecnam P2012 Traveler on the Norwood service and that Flight Level would handle ground services and initial passenger processing. Ferreira said Cape Air complies with federal Transportation Security Administration rules that allow non‑sterile operations for smaller aircraft and that passengers are vetted against federal watch lists during booking: “The TSA regulations allow for a non sterile operations for aircraft under a certain number of seats … so we comply with federal regulations,” he said.

Commission members asked about community impacts and operational details. Commission member John noted local concern about “airplane noise,” and Cape Air representatives said they had discussed local noise procedures with their chief pilot and would observe community sensitivity and the airport's noise procedures. Harry West, identified in the meeting as the airport’s air traffic manager, asked about the possibility of adding additional sections (extra flights) if demand grows; Cape Air said additional sections would be considered if the market warranted it and that the airline would coordinate scheduling with airport staff.

After the presentation the commission moved to approve Cape Air, Inc. d/b/a Cape Air as a commercial permit holder in Norwood for 2026. The motion was approved by voice vote and the permit was presented to company representatives at the meeting.

Operational follow-up: Cape Air agreed to provide requested operational details to airport staff, including answers about flight‑planning procedures and staffing, and airport staff said they would receive contact information for follow-up coordination.","The North Airport Commission approved a 2026 commercial permit for Cape Air after the carrier outlined a seasonal schedule and security, operational and community considerations.","actionData","errors"]
