Volunteer Spotlight: Jack Krause

摘要

Encroachment-it's one of the top threats to general aviation airports nationwide. And ASN volunteer Jack Krause played a key role in protecting his local airport, Sanderson Field in Shelton, Washington. Krause rallied local pilots to attend public meetings with the airport sponsor and city officials to express concerns about a proposal that would have allowed high-density residential development near the airport. The proposed rezoning request-withdrawn by a developer on January 12-would have conflicted with the airport's overlay zoning plan, which was introduced in 2006 and supported by AOPA.
