Commission approves $279,000 AIP application for regional airport taxiway work
Summary
The commission approved an Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grant application totaling $279,000 for taxiway seal-coating; the recorded local match was $6,100 split with the city and the county authorized the chairman to sign related paperwork.
Commissioners approved submitting an FAA Airport Improvement Program application for a taxiway seal-coating project listed at $279,000. Staff described the project as the next phase of the airport’s capital improvements and said the grant is structured as a 90% federal, 5% state, 5% local match AIP award.
The minutes record a local match of $6,100 that would be split 50/50 between the county and the city; a county speaker thanked the airport representative for the work. The commission voted to authorize the application and to allow the chairman to sign the paperwork for the grant.
The commission did not record a roll-call vote in the transcript; the action was adopted by voice vote. The commission’s approval allows staff to proceed with the AIP application and, if awarded, the county’s share of the local match would be confirmed during subsequent contract or grant-acceptance steps.
