Schmidt said he will attend a meeting at the regional office of the FAA in Boston Friday to apply for money through the airport development aid program to fund the expansion. "We should have a pretty good idea on Friday if we are eligible for the money," Schmidt said.

If the funds are available, construction would be completed before winter. If not, the most vulnerable pieces would be stored inside the garage, and the rest would be left outside, he said. By DAVID KIRK Free Press Staff Writer A communications breakdown may leave some Burlington International Airport snow removal equipment out in the cold, despite near completion of a garage built specifically to house that equipment. According to airport Manager Thomas Schmidt, the new seven-bay equipment garage, scheduled for completion in two weeks, will not be large enough to house eight new machines ordered by the airport last year. The garage, financed by a $401,000 grant from the Federal Aviation Administration and built by Kenclif Construction of Burlington, would have been adequate but there was a mix-up in design specifications.

"We originally ordered three new plows, two runway brooms, two snow blowers and a bucket loader," Schmidt said. "Somewhere along the line, the manufacturer of the runway brooms changed the design of their machine," making them too long to fit into the garage, he said. Schmidt said his office had been notified of the change in vehicle length, but, "We simply have not tracked the thing down far enough to know if the architect was told of the change or not. We aren't placing any blame at this time." Airport officials will look into plans to expand the garage by adding one larger bay to hold the runway brooms and to accommodate the remaining utility and service vehicles used in snow removal, he Groups Planted Tress The planting and fertilizing of trees in the Williston Road-Spear Street 'Jughandle' Sunday was sponsored by the Burlington Tree Committee.

2 From Page 1 "I think the vote is very significant and I don't foresee any problem in working out a transition with the village government," Ryan said. Selectman Sue Corson, who was re-elected Tuesday, said she saw the vote as part of a changing attitude among residents for better town-village relations. Selectman Jerry L. Firkey, a former Newport policeman, said, "It was an overwhelming victory. I believe the proposal was solid and that is why the voters accepted it." Selectman Charles E.

Ketcham said, "It is a great step forward," and Chairman Ann Harroun said it would not have been possible without the help of "many, many persons." Village Manager Kenneth Greer could not be reached in several attempts to telephone him at his home. Town Clerk Jane Yandow said 1,409 out of 7,550 voters, or 19 percent, went to the polls. In the only other issue, voters approved authorizing selectmen to sell .7 acre in the Brickyard Development that has been earmarked as the site of the new town office buildingThe vote was 946-382. Selectmen said they needed the vote in case they lose a court case over zoning of the property and have to buy or swap for a new site. Races for town offices were all uncontested.

John Bartlett, a former selectman, returned to the board after Selectman Barbara Higgins did not seek re-election. Both Bartlett and Mrs. Corson, with 964 votes, were elected to three-year terms. Mrs. Yandow was re-elected clerk and was elected town treasurer after incumbent Catherine Jones did not seek re-election.

Mrs. Yandow received 1,122 votes as clerk and 1,080 as treasurer. Also re-elected were Merritt Sheldon to the Champlain Water District and John Keene as moderator, both with 1,039 votes. Felicia Ratkovitz, a member of the Zoning Board of Adjustment, was elected in a write-in for auditor with 12 votes. Winfield Tandy, a former auditor, was second with 10.

The police proposal had strong support from several groups and individuals, including two village trustees, former Police Chief James F. Mulcahy and the village police union. The only known public opposition surfaced Monday when several village homes received postcards signed by Village Trustee David Lynch. Lynch declined to say Monday night how many he had sent, or whether village funds were involved. Lynch said Tuesday night that he was glad that the issue was decided by a wide margain.

"I glad it was overwhelming, especially since the town in the past had not supported the plan." Lynch said he plans to seek a special village election to make sure residents want to abolish the village force and have a townwide department. Lynch said he knows the trustees have the power to abolish the department, but he wants village voters to have one more opportunity on the issue. Lynch also said he was disappointed by what he said was an election law violation by someone who distributed flyers without a name or address included.
