Summary

A glider club member said recent signage and city efforts appear to have reduced fireworks discharges at Gardner Municipal Airport and the need for city cleanup compared with last year.

Alan Plesberg, a member of the glider club that rents hangars at Gardner Municipal Airport, told the council he had reported fireworks discharges on airport property last year and that signs and city efforts implemented since then appear to have reduced debris and cleanup time this year. He said the changes helped protect hangars and fuel facilities near the airport.

Plesberg thanked the mayor and council for attention to the issue and suggested continued signage and additional patrols or enforcement as needed. He said he would provide a copy of his remarks to the airport manager for follow‑up.
