Airport volunteers seal more than 800 feet of taxiway cracks, municipal airport leaders say
Summary
A volunteer effort at the Moses Lake Municipal Airport sealed more than 800 feet of cracks using one pallet of hot mastic material, municipal airport vice chair Jeremy Davis told the council during citizen communications.
Jeremy Davis, vice chair of the Moses Lake Municipal Airport Commission and president of the Moses Lake chapter of the Washington Pilots Association, told the council a volunteer crew sealed more than 800 feet of taxiway cracks during a weekend project using a single pallet of hot‑patch mastic.
Davis said volunteers prepared cracks Friday night and began sealing early Saturday morning, finishing about 3 p.m. He estimated the work covered roughly one-fifth of the airport's pavement surfaces and said the repairs will help prevent further asphalt deterioration and protect aircraft, pilots and passengers. Davis thanked volunteers including hangar renters, pilots and commission chair Darren Jackson and asked the council to recognize the community effort.
Council did not take action; Davis's remarks were heard during the citizen-communications portion of the meeting.
