(August 9, 2002, posted at 7:20 p.m.) -- Following LBReport.com's article earlier today that reported the August 13 City Council item agendized by Councilmembers Rob Webb, Dennis Carroll and Tonia Reyes-Uranga requesting that the City Council pass a resolution encouraging federal, state and County lawmakers to "explore solutions" to this regional [aviation] problem which will include the feasibility of utilizing outlying airports in less residentially developed areas," Councilman Webb told LBReport.com early this evening that he plans to include in the motion a request that LB, Burbank and Los Angeles County work together for a regional solution to aviation growth that puts flights inland (including Ontario and Palmdale) where's there's capacity and they want them.

Comment is pending as we post.

Meanwhile, LBReport.com will post (and possibly break) two additional stories concerning LB Airport within the next 24-48 hours.
