Cleveland airport director opposed to Browns stadium plan | Reporters Roundtable

from Sound of Ideas · host Ideastream Public Media

Cleveland's director of airports talked to the media this week about his opposition to the Browns new stadium complex, which is planned for land near the city-owned Hopkins International Airport. Bryant Francis told reporters that he has not changed his mind about safety concerns he believes the new stadium, because its height encroaches 58 feet into protected airspace, would pose to the airport. He also didn't say specifically what those safety concerns are, while the Federal Aviation Administration issued a "no hazard" finding. We will discuss the airport director’s opposition to the current Browns stadium plan to begin Friday’s “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable.”
