Master Plan
The Airport Master Plan will act as a guide in development over the next 20 years. The master plan began in early September 2017 with an aeronautical survey to collect obstruction data and an inventory of the Airport’s existing facilities. The master plan technical research, analysis and recommendations work concluded in March 2019. The Port has adopted the Master Plan and is seeking modifications with the FAA.
