COUNTY AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE PLANNED

In September the Grow Licking County CIC will be appointing an Airport Development Committee. Made up of development representatives, local business people and users of the County Airport in Heath; the committee will work with the Regional Airport Board and the facility operator to accomplish needed capital improvements. Issues will include extending the runway to five-thousand feet to accommodate larger aircraft, as well as building a new taxi-way and constructing a new terminal at the Heath Road facility. The County’s general aviation airport is an important economic development tool.
