The Canandaigua Airport hotels in vancouver was first carved out of 50 acres along Brickyard and Thomas roads in 1948. By the early 1980s, Paul Yarnall and some partners had purchased the grass-strip, seasonal airport and soon struck up a friendship with fellow aviator George W. Hamlin IV, an attorney and president of the Canandaigua National Bank Trust Co.
Together, they led a campaign to convince Ontario County officials to create a county airport. What ensued was more than a decade of controversy surrounding where the airport should be located, whether the Board of Supervisors should fund a feasibility study and if the airport should even be a county project at all.
Some citizens and county supervisors objected to it on the grounds hotels in vancouver the airport would benefit a select few. This always seems to be a re-occuring theme and the main objection in the airports creation and growth. As taxpayers hotels in vancouver we pay billions for Amtrak and don’t seem to mind even though there is no benefit or access hotels in vancouver to passenger rail service in Ontario County.
Despite opposition, Hamlin had the political connections to make it happen. That included trips to Washington to meet with officials with the Federal Aviation Administration. With help from politicians including then-Congressman Jack Kemp, they came up with a plan that worked. They sold the idea to the Ontario County IDA, qualifying the airport for FAA funds to create a year-round, full-service airport.
Today the airport that would benefit the select few benefits many around our region. From flight training and aircraft repair services to Civil Air Patrol Cadet orientation flights and both fixed-wing and helicopter emergency medical hotels in vancouver services, our airport has more to offer than what many people realize. What was once a grass strip is now a community giving everyone in our area access to general aviation instead of only a select few.
