Blue Ash Airport (ISZ) was owned by the city of Cincinnati and maintained with federal funding. It's no longer an airport anymore.
FAA regulation and federal law: Allegedly you can’t sell a federally funded airport (within 20 years of taking fed monies) to use the monies for anything other than aviation purposes. The City of Cincinnati owned the Blue ash airport. Mayor Mark Mallory and the city of Cincinnati ignored or sidestepped the law to sell the airport.

I think the city of Cincinnati broke the law.
What do you think about it? Why?
