Gary plan fails to become third regional airport site
APC News Service reports Gary officials push a $30 million Gary Chicago Regional Airport expansion to boost cargo handling and funding, while Peotone supporters oppose a Gary third airport. Mayor King argues enhanced funding and runway upgrades would better serve the region, with plans to reroute rail or highways and seek federal support. Christine Cochrane counters that Gary cannot realistically become a full major airport and notes travelers prefer O Hare or Midway, labeling Chicago funding a neighboring state questionable.
