MINUTES OF THE MEETING
OF THE
BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
OF THE
FISHERS ISLAND FERRY DISTRICT
July 30, 1981
A special meeting of the Board of Commissioners of the Fish-c
ers Island Ferry District was called by the Chairman at 6:00
p.m. in the office of the Ferry District. Present for th~
,meeting were Commissioners duPont, Doyen, Bi!ker, EVi!ns ,and
Edwards. The purpose of the meeting was to review the pt~
posed budget for the period January 1, 1982 through December
31, 1982. After going over the basic figures, the manager re-
ported that he had received an estimate from Blount Marine
Corporation for lengthening OLINDA. It was estimated that
the cost for lengthening would be $300,000.00 with an addit-
ional $40,000.00 required if a bow thruster was to be in-
stalled. It was the opinion of the board that results of
operations have been such that the unexpended balance which
has been accumulated over the past few years plus that re-
maining in 1981 would be sufficient to place the project in
the budget while holding the line on taxes. The manager
cwas directed to prepare the bUdget in accordance with the
guidelines discussed.
In an unrelated matter, a discussion was held relating to
the contention of Mr. Anthony Marshall that his aircraft
should be entitled to a seasonal rate as opposed to being
charged landing fees on a daily basis. It was the opinion
of the Board of Commissioners that, while the aircraft may
be a private plane as opposed to commercial, it is, in fact,
replacing commercial transportation sources (ferry or air)
while being used on a daily basis to transport personnel em-
ployed by Bouton Services, Inc. to and from Fishers Island.
It was further noted that the aircraft is not based at Eliz-
abeth Airport on an overnight basis. For these reasons, it
was the opinion of the t)(lard that the aircraft is not entitled
to the seasonal rates <tr..:corded to aircraft based on Fishers
Island.
Following discussion on the above matters, the following
resolutions were passed relating to Ferry District business:
