Choice is Nashville for flying to West Coast About: Best airport with scheduled service near Columbia KY To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I would say the best nearby airport depends on your desired destination. I choose Nashville because it's the closest airport in the area with direct non-stop flights to Los Angeles. Nashville is only about 2 hours away. Louisville would be my next choice (2 hours). Then Cincinnati (Northern Kentucky) (4 hours). I've never used Lexington because it has fewer flights, but it would probably be a good choice also. s/Ann Curtis 2009-10-30 14:30:28 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

INFAC is fine company and great addition to local economic base About: GOOD NEWS: INFAC to expand adding 20 new jobs To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Thanks, Ed, for carrying the story on the expansion by INFAC. INFAC is a fine company and great addition to the economic base of the community and region. All of us involved with Team Taylor County (Campbellsville-Taylor County Economic Development Authority) are very thankful for this expansion. Ron McMahan, the TTC Executive Director, is doing a very good job for us, and Campbellsville University has played a role in the location of INFAC to the community. The company's original decision was, in part, because of the presence of the internatinoal student comunity at CU and the presence of South Korean students here. One of our South Korean students served as an interpreter for the group visiting th ecommunity, and the student's home in Seoul was in close proximity to the company's corporate headquarters. We are very fortunate to have a very positive "town-gown" relationship at Campbellsville University and consider it a primary part of our institutional mission to be involved in regional stewardship and economic development. Best, s/John Chowning Vice President for Church and External Relations Executive to the President Campbellsville University 2009-10-30 10:16:21 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

By Ed Waggener Acting unanimously on the recommendation of Superintendent Darrell Treece, the Adair County School Board has officially voted to put the question of the Nickel Tax to a vote in a special election should that be necessary if the tax recall petition has the 755 valid signatures needed to force a board decision on the recall.

Mitch McKinley voices concerns on spending of tax money About: Amazing attitudes toward nickel tax quarter gas premium To ColumbiaMagazine.com I would like to know if anyone has ever figured out exactly what the school system takes in each year from all the taxes and state funds they get. They already have a tax added on to several things. It's not fair that the people who don't own property or have insurance don't pay for their kids' education. I am all for education but but just like the justice center; why do we need granite floors and plush fixtures to send a criminal up the creek.
