THEY ARE GOING TO WIN ANYWAY



THEY ARE GOING TO WIN ANYWAY
The attorneys that we have contacted, can’t help, even the ones that defend airports for a living. 
What is so strange is that while the city the city was destroying this airport, we were given every excuse why nobody could help.  Senator McCaskill’s office tried to help in the beginning, but that soon went away.  No matter how many of the FAA regulations or Federal Laws were, and are being broken, the supporters of this airport and the people that want it to remain open, are not as well connected to the right people, as the ones that want it gone. 
MoDOT and the FAA ignored what was going on at this airport for years.  Every excuse in the book was dusted off and used in the St. Clair Regional issues, as to why they could not do anything about what the city was doing to the airport. 
BUT, now they are stating, “But the law says”.   The only law that is going to be enforced is the closure law.  All the other rules seem to not exist.  The city stated they would clean the taxiway on an as needed basis, and monitor the runway lights on an as needed basis.  We have 15 lights out on the runway, they fail to come on at dark, people have had to divert to Sullivan at night.  The taxiway has not been touches since 2012. 
We have been told by the safety people in the FAA, “We are not going to worry about it, they are going to close it anyway”.
