Elizabeth City may have to pay $1.73 million in penalties for not creating enough jobs at the airpark. The penalties would be imposed because of conditions attached to $4.5 million in grants the city acquired to build the aviation project. Those conditions required that 500 jobs be created. Considering the potential penalties, has the airpark project been good for Elizabeth City? What do you think?
WDYT? Airpark penalties

Say what!
There was no way on God's green earth that 500 jobs were going to be created at the airpark!!! Who in the world thought that?!?!?! Oh wait, never mind....city council.
The airpark project...
could have been a good thing for the area but again the councils and individual departments that play into this have dropped the ball. They should have had a plan in place to attract attention before they went after the grants. Now, poor planning stands to cost the city a tremendous amount of money. At some point I hope the citizens of EC wake up and stop electing their officials by anything but ability & credentials.... until that happens, nothing will change.
