I was told some time ago that Glenforsa was the only airfield in the AB&C portfolio which made money.
I would guess finance is not an issue but politics is. CWW probably has it nailed. What's needed is someone (smart) in the council to recognise the asset and take an interest.
I would bet that a survey of the benefit Glenforsa brings to the area has never been done. Without black and white figures in front of them the council will consider it an unnecessary nuisance.
