Lancaster Airport expansion: Part I: Residents have questions
Lee Chowaniec
The more the Safe Aviation Coalition (SAC) looks into the Lancaster Airport expansion project, the more inconsistencies they find in a master plan study that was written to provide federal and state funding for the expansion, and more reason to belief that taxpayers are being fleeced.

Lancaster Airport expansion under fire
Lee Chowaniec
The Safe Aviation Coalition (SAC)has reason enough to complain about small aircraft flying low and/or buzzing their homes and affecting their quality of lives. Once being told by the Town of Lancaster that they had no jurisdiction in the airport expansion process and that they should contact the FAA, the airport or Congressman Christopher Lees’ office, they began doing some research.

Lancaster residents deserve better
I am seeking your support for a seat on the Lancaster Town Council. As a former School and Town Board member I know how important it is for elected officials to “listen” and “respect” residents and to address their concerns. We must return accountability; integrity and credibility back to the board.

Time for a "new direction"
Lee Chowaniec
Residents who are considering voting for incumbent Lancaster Town Board Council Members this year have good reason to ponder change. For years, the entrenched single party (Democratic) Town Board has acted in such manner that many residents are of the opinion that the board is more accountable to developers, special interest groups and town employees than for the best interests of the community it was elected to serve.

The Lancaster incumbents have got to go
I just received a campaign mailer from the endorsed Democratic Party council member candidates telling me of all the wonderful things they have done for town residents during their terms as council members. They failed to mention how many times their ears became deaf when residents approached them on personal issues.
