Today's Poll: Should the county build a new airport terminal?

By Howard B. Owens

How many times have we seen polls where the people who would have to pay for something like this say NO...And our government officials do it anyways...How many planes a day actually land and take off from the airport.. ..All it is is one big pork project...Let those that use it pay for it...

County Residences should not have to pay for the select few that, fly out of the airport. The airport should be funded by the State and owner/user. You could possible see if, the federal government could pay a portion since, the military occasionally uses it for a training site. How many county businesses actually use the Batavia Airport? I have not seen any increase in flight active to warrant a new terminal. To argue it would help draw businesses here, does not hold merit.
