Town Council in 2016 dedicated a full time employee to oversee operations and manage the airport. BJ was hand selected to sit on the PA Governor’s Aviation Advisory Committee. BJ is a strong advocate for small airports like Bloomsburg to make it possible to have an airport that is a part of the governmental departments and keeping the taxpayer first in mind. For the first time, the 2022 general fund budget reflects the airport operating as a surplus.
