BENTON – (William McPerson, Benton Gazette) Please Click to read the full story. Here is an excerpt) Rocky Morris and fellow Benton Municpal Airport Board member Tom Carter addressed the Benton City Council Monday night, alleging the Airport Board has voted “illegally”—meaning without the needed quorum to take official action, and is missing several public agendas and meeting minutes. Much of the controversy involves a disputed contract with the engineering firm Brown and Roberts. The airport recently received a letter from Brown and Roberts, addressed to Carter, which was in response to an Airport notice advertising for engineering firms for work on various airport related projects totaling around $1.2 million.
