Airport land sale pitched by Nettleton and Burns
Joseph Nettleton and Edward Burns offered 37 acres for 8000 dollars to the county and city to join with 80 acres already owned for a two runway airport plan. They asked delay of James Rowe’s proposal until a written offer is submitted. A Rowe offer would deed 400 acres to the county if 1600 dollars is spent on runways and drainage. A county attorney says county purchase of a flying field may be illegal. Rowe’s plan would donate land on condition of airport use.
