It's a waste of time to argue about Meigs. It (and all the other
airports
taken down by local governments) are gone and will never be back.

Maybe if the good citizens of Chicago get an 8 million dollar fine they
have to pay with their tax money they will see the light and possibly
other politicians will pay attention when they try to pull illegal
actions against airports. I think the FAA should go after as much as
they can and make sure everyone knows about it.

8 million is petty cash to the city. No one will even notice. Dickey's
administration is under a lot scrutiny lately due to illegal practices in
numerous departments. A lot of his generals have resigned and quite a few
are wards of the federal government. Meigs is so far down in the noise
level it is invisible.
