Calling Private Briscoe… Gwinnett Airport
The Gwinnett County Commission is looking at an offer to privatize Briscoe Field. Currently, the county owns and runs the airpost, near Lawrenceville, off GA316. It has an operating budget of about $1,000,000/year. All of the money generated in fees and leases have to be plowed back into the budget for the airfield.

If it was leased out to a private entity, the company leasing the airfeild would be responsible for all costs, while at the same time they would be paying the county for the privilege. So, instead of a budget expenditure of just over $1m, there would be a payment… although we don’t know the amount of that payment yet.

Increased noise will reduce *our* property values and drive the area downmarket. New home buyers will avoid buying within 10-15 miles of the airport – just in case. Wouldn't you?
Gwinnett citizens currently own the airport and have control of it. We've done a fine job of keeping a pleasant, liveable balance so far. Let's not surrender that control for a few pieces of silver. Once it's private, the quality of *our* environment will be dictated by the New York investors.
