While everybody is arguing, the physical appearance of the airport buildings and grounds continues to deteriorate and is a disgrace to the Island. How about a little care and attention to detail. While new rocking chairs are nice, the exterior wood beams are peeling; shrubbery and flowers are uncared for; trees haven’t been pruned for many years . . . just to mention a few examples of neglect. Citizens, look around. This isn’t the Detroit Municipal Airport yet, but it’s getting close. Can’t the MVAC show just a little care? It creates a negative impression for your customers — who pay your bills.

How did a relatively new airport get into this terrible condition? Hasn’t anyone been doing any upkeep on the building? Someone needs to held responsible for this.
Maybe the airport attorney can lend the airport some money for paint.
