The Northeast Alabama Regional Airport is dying from “benign neglect.” The Pilgrim’s Pride animal parts rendering plant issue has only highlighted this neglect.
The Gadsden airport could be one of the cornerstones of economic development if only someone in city government could see the benefit of this potential jewel. The whole local economic development team has been asleep at the switch.
One of the first conversations I ever had with the mayor was at the Gadsden Country Club. We were talking about nothing in particular when I remembered an announcement in The Gadsden Times about building a new hangar at the airport. I asked why the airport was building a new hangar when so many were empty? His response was, “I don’t have anything to do with that out there.”
