THE ROSEAU TIMES REGION THIS WEEKEND LOOKED AT THE ROSEAU AIRPORT PROJECT THAT WILL BE MOVING FORWARD. THEY NEED TO REDO THE RUNWAY AND TAXIWAY, AND AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW, THEY WILL DO BOTH PROJECTS AT THE SAME TIME, WHICH WOULD LEAD TO A CLOSURE OF THE AIRPORT. SOME ARE ASKING, AND MAYOR DAN FABIAN NOTED THAT THEY ARE LOOKING INTO IT, IF THE PROJECTS COULD NOT BE DONE SEPARATELY, WHICH IF THEY COULD GET FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION PERMISSION, COULD KEEP THE AIRPORT PARTIALLY OPEN. RIGHT NOW, THE CITY ONLY LOOKS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ABOUT 2.5% OF THE TOTAL COST OF THE PROJECT.
