A letter from Pat Newson, director of recreation and facilities for the Township of North Huron announcing a feasibility study of the future of the Richard W. LeVan Airport, brought an expression of support and concern for the county’s airports from Mayor Paul Gowing at the May 19 meeting of Morris-Turnberry Council. Gowing, who is also Warden of Huron County, said as part of a recent county council strategic planning meeting, a consultant reviewed the situation with the county’s three airports at Goderich, Huron Park and Wingham. “The care and upkeep is large, almost more than one municipality can support but benefit goes to whole area,” Gowing said. At the same time he admitted that the ability of surrounding municipalities to support airports is limited. “My worst fear would be to see our airports close. They may be needed in the future,” he said. He pointed to the fact that the loss of manufacturing companies such as Volvo, in the case of Goderich and cutbacks at Wescast, in the case of Wingham, has greatly reduced the use of the airports. “We don’t want to lose airports. It costs a lot more to put them back,” Gowing said. Deputy-Mayor Jamie Heffer pointed out the importance of the airport for air ambulance service. Newson’s letter said every scenario for the future of the airport would be included in the study from closure of the airport to privatization to developing new business opportunities.
