Today's Island Packet Newspaper carried a very interesting public service advertisement placed by Citizens to Protect the Hilton Head Airport. For the past several years, there has been a controversy concerning the Hilton Head Airport between local and part-time resdents, business people and our local and county government. It appears that we "may" have some town and county officials who have become opponents of maintaining a local airport presence. For the life of me, I cannot understand why an elected official would not strive to protect a vital asset like our airport. It serves everyone and particularly, it is vital to maintain an airport in times of crisis or diasaster not to say the economic vitality of our community. Remember, folks, we live on an island. That should explain the necessity of maintaining an airport alone.
This is NOT the first time I have written about the importance of the Hilton Head Airport. It is a vital asset that needs to be nutured and protected. For more information about the current issues, please visit Save The Airport. The airport issues are clearly explained at this website.
TO OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS: I, AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY, DO EXPECT YOU TO ACT IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF "ALL" RESIDENTS RATHER THAN FOLLOWING YOUR OWN PERSONAL AGENDAS. YOU WERE ELECTED TO SERVE EVERYONE FAIRLY IN THE COMMUNITY!
