Airport terminal expansion urged as inadequate now and for future
Cedar Rapids consultants say the current terminal built in 1952 and expanded in 1964 falls short of needs with only five gates for 235000 annual passengers. They cite insufficient holding rooms curb space and parking and propose options including a new complex east of the present facility with phased additions. Estimated cost starts at about five million dollars funded by bonds, depending on revenue.
