Committee: airport terminal and fuel‑farm projects remain long‑term, hinge on FAA funding
Summary
Committee members discussed airport terminal and fuel‑farm projects, with staff and committee estimating both projects as medium priority and tentatively targeted around 2035 pending FAA grants; cost estimates cited were approximately $1,000,000 for a terminal and $750,000 for fuel infrastructure.
Committee discussion placed the airport terminal and a potential fuel farm in the long‑range CIP horizon pending federal funding. Committee member (Speaker 6) summarized recent grant efforts and said the terminal "won't come to fruition unless it's funding from FAA" and later added, "You're probably looking at 2035 for that as well, and that 750,000 is probably fair." Staff (Speaker 5) and other members assigned both items a low to medium priority and noted the need to continue seeking FAA grants.
Members recorded cost placeholders to inform the CIP table but made no commitment to a construction schedule without outside funding. The discussion emphasized dependence on external grants and the need for continued grant applications and monitoring of FAA funding opportunities.
