Fleurant Named to Airport Commission to Replace Gadbois

Victor Fleurant is appointed to the airport commission to fill the vacancy left by Philip Gadbois who resigned at the mayor’s request earlier this month. Fleurant’s term runs through February 1, 1981, as Dutremble links Gadbois land dealings to runway expansion. Gadbois cited meetings absence and conflict of interest as reasons for resigning, while Doyon notes no abuse of position given long public discussion of the land. The mayor also seeks materials from city solicitor Edward Gaulin and a 1975 activity report, plus a review of pending litigation.
