Let's just decommission the airport completely. An awful lot of money is spent on what is the publicly funded playground for a relatively few wealthy private aircraft owners. I see the need for the heliport-for firefighting helicopters as well as air evac-and I can even see allowing the Museum to stay in place. But all the rest of it?
Let's make that airport..which is funded by my property taxes...let's turn the airport into a playground for all of us. Let's turn it into a Recreation center. Put in a soccer pitch, a softball field, a covered arena for horse shows, an off leash dog park, a picnic area near the trees, a skate park for the kids, a running track/parcours. The runways would be a dandy site for car shows/trade shows. The hangars could be used for small businesses, storage of County equipment, etc.
I find it suspicious that the Port wants a snowplow for 'heavy snowfalls'. It smells of bait and switch.. The only need for a snowplow is to plow runways for big jets..cargo jets from Amazon and passenger jets from Seattle. Nice try, port.
