News About Massive Bowman Field Tree Removal Plan
Bowman Field plans to greatly expand their air space claim which will go one mile out in four directions from the end of their two runways.
The Louisville Regional Airport Authority will not say how many trees will be removed or topped, but my estimate is we will lose the canopy of 1000 trees. Large areas of Seneca Park, Big Spring, Landor, Drayton, McCoy, and significant large trees in Seneca Gardens and Kingsley will be topped, removed, or young trees butchered to prevent them into becoming canopy trees. This is huge.
If this concerns you, this is what you can do.

Consider donating for our legal services to resist. Donations can go to Kentucky Resources Council, POB 1070, Frankfort, KY 40602. A special fund is being set up for Leslie Barras, an experienced attorney to represent us in the historic property and landscape review process required under federal law for this proposal. Please make checks payable to KRC and designate your donation by writing in the subject line: “Bowman Field-Historic.” Please also consider giving to the KRC generally because they will work on behalf of the nearby residents in the environmental review process required under federal law for this proposal.
