Despite radio ads and other advertisements to the contrary, there are no immediate plans for development of an airport within Parkland County.
“At this point, Parkland County has not yet received any formal applications for development of an airport within the county,” said Paul Hanlan, Manager of Planning & Development Services. “Even if an application did come forward, the referral process, particularly with the federal government, would be a complicated and lengthy process and, even if approved, would take a considerable amount of time.”
Hanlan further noted that development of an airport within the county is not contemplated within Parkland County Council’s strategic plan, nor has County Administration received any direction from Council to pursue an airport.
