Airport Commission Special Meeting 08-11-2026

The Barnstable Cape Cod Gateway Airport Commission held a special meeting on August 11, 2026, focusing primarily on the procurement and implementation of communications management and community outreach services. The commission reviewed a presentation from the selected vendor, I LLC, who proposed updating the airport's website and brand book to enhance security, improve user engagement, and increase visibility through strategic blogging and social media activity. The vendor emphasized the importance of moving away from the vulnerable WordPress platform to a more secure system and outlined a phased plan for branding, social media outreach, and ongoing maintenance within the established budget. The commission discussed the balance between community-focused content and broader marketing efforts to increase passenger traffic and business at the airport. Additionally, the commission voted to maintain the existing marketing and infrastructure subcommittee and appointed Wendy Beerworth as the new clerk. No budget increases were proposed, and the vendor committed to adhering to the original RFP budget constraints.
