So let's recap ...
Items 1, 2 & 3. - The City researched and designed the new runway while taking I-40 into consideration and consulting with the AMA as well as the users of the field. Then, the City paid for, and built the runway as part of a "Capital Improvements Program."

Item 4. - About 30 days after the runway was opened for use, someone on the City Counsel gets a bug up their ***** and closes the runway that the city probably just spent $300,000.00 on??!!

Item 5 & 6. The City reverts back to Item 1 & 2?

Is it just me, or does this whole thing sound stupid to others too?

It sounds stupid to me too, but comming from the goverment I am not surprised
