The airport in Apalachicola now has a new name. The Franklin County commission agreed last week to change the name of the airport from the Apalachicola regional airport to the Franklin County/Apalachicola regional airport. Commissioners felt the name change would remind people that the airport belongs to the county as a whole and not to the City of Apalachicola. The commission also agreed to seek a wider variety of people to serve on the airport advisory committee which helps oversee the operations at the airport. Many of the current members of the advisory board are from Apalachicola and county commissioners said they would like the board to actively seek members from areas further east like Carrabelle, Lanark Village and Alligator Point. The board said it would also like to see more diversity on the board including possibly some women and African Americans.
