CONNOQUENESSING TWP — The Butler Farm Show Airport has been awarded $60,000 from the state to install a new access gate and fencing.Rick McPherson, the assistant airport manager, said the grant is a routine one aimed to improve the facility.“It will be used to better secure the airport,” he said.McPherson said there is already some five-foot tall fencing around the airport. The grant will be used to make it surround the entire perimeter.“It'll fill in the missing pieces,” he said.The state money also will fund a new access gate.The fencing could be installed in 2015 if everything goes well, McPherson said.“There's a lot of bureaucracy between planning and the final product,” he said. “Hopefully it'll be up next year.”
