CA: Tulelake council Approves Airport Land Sale
TULELAKE — The sale of land under the Tulelake Airport to the Modoc Tribe of Oklahoma was unanimously approved by the Tulelake City Council late Tuesday afternoon.
"I'd like to welcome the Modocs from Oklahoma," councilman Richard Marcillac said to the Modoc delegation after the vote.
The council never publicly discussed purchase offers from Modoc County and the Tule Lake Committee. Modoc County, which owns the airport and has a strong financial interest is seeing it used as an airport, offered to equal the Modoc bid of $17,500.
