At its February meeting the Clare City Commission unanimously approved a resolution favoring a county wide airport proposed by millionaire L M Cappaert who offered to donate about 500 acres. The plan, costing roughly 1 447 000, would supersede future expansions of Clare and Harrison airports. Cappaert later withdrew the offer on February 7 citing lack of community backing.
