Leader Editorial: Amid the holiday mail is an important pamphlet

Among the colorful holiday missives that may have been landing in Burbank mailboxes in recent days is a mailing we urge our readers to hold onto for closer study once the hectic year-end activities cease.

Specifically, a four-page pamphlet put together by Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport Authority officials making the case for a replacement terminal at Bob Hope Airport was mailed to residences and businesses this month.

The release of the pamphlet comes on the heels of the unveiling of the website BURreplacementterminal.com, a user-friendly site that offers arguments in favor of the gate-for-gate replacement terminal as well as a link to the site where comments can be made. regarding the proposal’s environmental impact report. One can also sign up to be notified of the proposal’s progress.

Burbank voters could be asked as soon as November of next year to give thumbs up or down to the Bob Hope Airport replacement terminal, so the airport authority’s educational efforts underway now are a wise move. We just hope they don’t get lost in the holiday shuffle.
