Pre-RFPAdministration & FinanceDetected Jul 15, 2026

The agenda asks whether KIWI Prices & Fees have been approved by the Selectboard, implying recent or pending changes to pricing, possibly linked to a vendor or system named KIWI. The airport and town are likely aligning fee schedules, which may tie into billing, POS, or fuel management technology. Financial systems and airport management software providers may find an opening to discuss how fees are managed, billed, and reported, especially if KIWI represents a platform that could expand or be complemented.

The acronym KIWI may refer to a specific vendor or pricing program; follow-up is needed to clarify its nature.
