Ferdi,
I agree with this approach as it doesn’t seem the town has a concrete concept
for expansion. This would allow them time to consider proposals like what Bill
had suggested or others while hashing out the future of the airport. Of course
they will likely put off any such decisions or proposals until the last minute
on a 5 year extension. Then we can play this game all over again.

Things move slowly in Taos.
While waiting for a larger plan to unfold that might address long term
development at the airport, I suggest that a small group (I nominate Blair
B., Joe K., and Bob D., with Kino as a consultant) meet with the Town Manager
to petition that the 5-year extension to the lease for the tan hangars be
activated. I'm happy to assist in the process.
Thank you,
Ferdi de Souza

Good morning,
All of you pilots that own or are in one of the tan hangars. According to
the lease agreement with the Town of Taos your hangar becomes city property
on 31 Dec 2021. There is an option for a five year extension but so far no
one has petitioned the town. I have talked to the town many times over the
years and several times in the last few months about the future status of
these hangars. So far the town has not committed to anything. You have the
most to gain or lose from their decision. I would suggest you organize then
make an appointment to meet with the town manager. If nothing is done then
according to your leases the hangars become town property very soon.
