Mansfield Airport Commission elects officers, approves $9,193.68 in monthly expenses and hears manager's report
Summary
The Commission unanimously approved minutes and a $9,193.68 payment for December expenses, elected officers for 2026, and received the airport manager's report on noise complaints, fuel sales, vehicle readings, VMP status and a heat issue at Hangar 12; several items lacked detailed figures in the minutes.
At its Jan. 12 meeting, the Mansfield Airport Commission unanimously approved the minutes of its Dec. 8, 2025 meeting and elected its 2026 officers. Motions passed 5-0 to confirm William Walker as Treasurer, Joel Brandwine as Chair, Bryan Duarte as Vice-Chair, Martin Fox as Clerk, and Ken Buja as Safety & Security.
Treasurer William Walker presented an itemized list of monthly expenses and a year-to-date budget report. The Commission voted 5-0 to approve payment of $9,193.68 to cover regular monthly expense items incurred in December 2025. The minutes list the vote as 5-0 but do not attribute individual yes votes beyond naming the commissioners present (Joel Brandwine, Bryan Duarte, William Walker, Ken Buja, Martin Fox).
Airport Manager Kevin Bullock provided a monthly operational report that was distributed to commissioners before the meeting. The minutes summarize the report's contents as including noise complaints received during the previous month, monthly fuel sales figures, vehicle readings, the status of the VMP, and a heat-related problem at Hangar 12. The minutes do not include the numerical totals for noise complaints, fuel sales, vehicle readings, or the VMP status; those details are recorded only in the manager's distributed report and were not transcribed into the minutes.
The Chair also described a recent plumbing/heating issue in the Administration Building and the efforts taken to address it; the minutes indicate the topic was discussed but do not record a formal outcome. The Commission responded to questions from visitors during the public-comment portion; the minutes name one guest, Tom Nery, but do not report verbatim visitor remarks.
The meeting was called to order at 6:30 p.m. and adjourned at approximately 7:25 p.m. The Commission's next meeting is scheduled for Monday, Feb. 9, 2026.
