Tacoma Narrows Airport Update

Pierce County Councilman Terry Lee wants the county to explore taking over the Tacoma Narrows Airport from the City of Tacoma. Lee, whose council district includes the Gig Harbor Peninsula, thinks that might be the best way to strike a balance between preserving the airport and making sure that air traffic doesn’t increase too much, something the nearby community has long feared.

acoma City Manager Eric Anderson prompted the discussion by announcing last week that he thinks the city should consider selling or closing the airport.
