Next Steps in Regional Airport Process, Eminent Domain
“The Mahaska County Supervisors are taking a first step to try to prevent the possible use of eminent domain to acquire land for the regional airport. This week the supervisors approved a change to the 28-E sharing agreement among Mahaska County, Pella and Oskaloosa. The agreement formed the south central regional airport agency which has so far selected an airport site along highway 163, about 4.5 miles outside of Oskaloosa. Oskaloosa and Pella must also approve the supervisor’s change for it to take effect.”
