<description><![CDATA[ (Jan 16, 2012) A new debate is underway over the future of the Adirondack Regional Airport in Lake Clear.  Traffic at the airport is growing, with more than 11,500 passengers using Cape Air’s commuter flights last year.  Supporters say that brings a big boost to the Tri-Lakes economy.  But state and local officials also say cost overruns, mismanagement and a lack of political support for the airport could threaten its future.  Brian Mann has our story.
