This project is a continuation of the Airport Layout Plan (ALP), which was developed in conjunction with the FAA in 2002. The ALP identifies the projects and plans the sequencing for continued airport improvement. A supplemental environmental assessment for this purchase was completed in 2017. This project includes the relocation of a road adjacent to the Airpark which is necessary to maintain Federal safety standards for airport operations. Federal funds for the Airpark are approved by the FAA through the Airport Capital Improvement Plan (ACIP). FAA priorities for funding airport projects include promoting safety and security; preserving existing infrastructure; mitigating noise or environmental impacts; fulfilling compliance, and providing capacity. Federal funding and requirements will dictate the final timeline for the purchase.
