Vickers Told to Reopen Talks on Retaining L B Base
City Manager Samuel E. Vickers was instructed to renew negotiations with the Air Force for renewing the lease at Municipal Airport after a petition with about 200 signatures urged action. The council vote, four to three, followed objections from several members and included a clause “if the Air Force is willing.” The move aimed to prevent the 452nd Troop Carrier Wing from moving to Riverside, with about 2,000 personnel potentially affected and emphasized the economic and security stakes for Long Beach.
