After years of lobbying and angry letters to MECs, Mayors et al, the much-maligned Dundee airfield is to finally get a boost.
Council has accepted – without question – a proposal from a mining group that is to start operations in the area, to invest R1-million a year, for the next three years into the airfield, for specifically fencing off the property.
