The Carroll County commissioners agreed Tuesday to spend nearly $700,000 for a security system at the Carroll County Regional Airport in response to an FBI agent?s recommendations.

The agent, who specializes in anti-terrorism, visited theairport three weeks ago and made suggestions to heighten security, said Joseph Varrone, airport administrator, in an interview Wednesday.
