Fond du Lac County hopes a new initiative will help spur interest in the county’s aeronatics business park. The county board has given the okay to spend $3000 for an aerospace study. County executive Al Buechel says the study is part of the Oshkosh Region Defense Industry Diversification Initiative in partnership[ with Winnebago and Outagamie counties following the recent layoffs at Oshkosh Corps. “Can we get more aeronautical businesses to come to this area because businesses of a certain type tend to like to locate near each other,” Buechel said. “Initially they taked about only doing Oshkosh then Oshkosh thought this needs to be a Fox Valley study.”
