Illinois will officially begin looking into a possible third airport in the Chicago area after the senate passed a bill requiring IDOT to begin the process that could lead to a cargo airport in Peotone.
Robert Ogalla runs a family farm in Peotone that his parents bought in the 1950s. He said they moved to Will County from a neighborhood near O'Hare Airport.Where he lives is in the middle of the site for a proposed third Chicago area airport.
"I believe it was 1991. Governor Edgar at the time told us planes would be landing by 1996, as you can see it hasn't happened yet," Ogalla said. "It's a crucial piece of legislation that will jumpstart the process of finding partners in the construction of the airport to make it a reality for the region," said State Senator Patrick Joyce .
"Having an airport will allow for our region to continue our successful growth and economic success," said State Senator Michael Hastings .
