Default Daley to Privatize Chicago's Midway Airport?

...
And just where in Chicago would this new airport be built?



Dave, you need to read the newspapers!
The proposed location is down by Peotone VOR, about 30-40 miles south of
Chicago. It would be run by Chicago.
That's why the proposal was dropped 3-4 years ago. The local communities
weren't going to allow Chicago control over their land.
There would be plenty of graft and corruption to go around, so a deal
could yet be crafted.


Yes I read newspapers and get information from numerous other news sources
as well. Daley would have absolutely no control over the proposed third
airport in Peotone. Peotone is not Chicago. That is why he is dead set
against it or any other options that do not involve ORD such as expanding
Gary or Rockford. He managed to get the huge ORD expansion approved so he
could maintain control. I don't know where you get your information but you
need to consider other sources.
