Ravalli County’s airports a well-kept economic secret

The Hamilton and Stevensville airports have a "truly fantastic" economic impact on Ravalli County, according to the county Economic Development Authority’s presentation to the commissioners last week.

The effect of the Stevensville airport as a municipal enterprise is phenomenal, Julie Foster, the authority’s executive director, said at the Tuesday meeting.

"It is a well-kept secret that we have this asset, and when we look at the Ravalli County airport (it) is the same kind of asset," Foster said. "I think most citizens in Ravalli County aren’t aware of the jobs and tax base."
