Opponents’ concerns include the building’s size, height and design, and increased traffic congestion. On Monday, Sidney council drew up a list of recommendations for the airport authority. The town has had significant input from the community about the proposal, Mayor Cliff McNeil-Smith said Tuesday. A total of 44 submissions went to council, which also heard from speakers. Council “felt it was important to bring forward several strong recommendations for the airport to consider before they give approval,” McNeil-Smith said. He said that when airport authority president and chief executive Geoff Dickson spoke to council, he committed to community engagement, “which we think is probably paramount,” as well as to working with other stakeholders on necessary transportation and infrastructure improvements.
