County seeks grant funding for Bowman Airfield planning and aerial survey
Summary
County staff said it will pursue federal and state grant funding to support a simplified Airport Layout Plan and an AGIS/aerial survey to collect topography and elevation data needed for Bowman Airfield planning.
The county’s planning director said staff will pursue federal and state grant funding in 2026 to support a simplified Airport Layout Plan (ALP) and an aerial GIS/AGIS survey for Bowman Airfield. Carl Hamming said the county’s consultant, Robert Peccia & Associates (RPA), is preparing grant applications and that the AGIS survey would capture high‑resolution topographic and elevation data required for planning.
Hamming described the AGIS work as a technical aerial survey (lidar or similar remotely sensed elevation mapping) that the county needs to inform runway and infrastructure planning and to make the airport eligible for certain preservation and improvement grants.
