FAA awards design grant for new Seminole Municipal Airport terminal; city to cover 5%
Summary
The City of Seminole accepted an FAA grant that will cover 95% of design costs for a new airport terminal; the city’s 5% share equals $16,540, and the council voted to accept the award.
The Seminole Airport Authority on Sept. 8 approved acceptance of Federal Aviation Administration grant number 3-40-0087-028-2025 to fund design work for a new terminal at Seminole Municipal Airport. The grant covers 95% of the design cost; the city’s required match is 5%, or $16,540.
City staff presented the grant during the Airport Authority’s agenda, noting the grant number and the city match. Following a motion to accept the grant and a roll call vote, the motion passed.
The grant is limited to terminal design; no construction funding was included in the action taken. The airport presentation did not specify a design timeline or total project budget beyond the federal share and the city match.
The vote was procedural and unanimous; authority members recorded affirmative roll-call responses and the chair declared the motion passed. The acceptance authorizes staff to complete the FAA grant paperwork and proceed with design-phase work under the grant terms.
City officials said no additional local funding commitments were required at the meeting beyond the 5% match. Any later construction-phase requests would require separate council action and budgeting.
