Middleton Airport: The Middleton Town Board is more knowledgeable than independent scientists and public health experts
The Middleton Town Board is widening its campaign against Middleton's municipal airport by now also taking aim at Dane County public health officials - in particular Dr. Jerry Halverson, the chairman of the board of Public Health Madison & Dane County (PHMDC). He has incurred the wrath of Cynthia Richson, chair of the Middleton Town Board and fanatical airport opponent, because his agency debunked her alarmist claims about the levels and impact of airport-related lead emissions in the Middleton area in a report released last month titled 'Assessing Childhood Lead Poisoning Risk From Middleton Municipal Airport'. This follows a preliminary report by the same agency that comes to the same result: There have been very few cases of child lead poisoning in the Middleton area in the last twenty years, and none could be traced to the airport (see Middleton e-View 234 for details).
