Cedar Rapids Eastern Iowa Airport faces continued short term lot crowding as the airport commission votes to raise the daily rate to 11 dollars. The move aims to push travelers to the long term lot for extended parking periods.
The Cedar Rapids Airport Commission approved a 38.8 million dollar budget for fiscal 2016 for The Eastern Iowa Airport. The plan funds a 47 million dollar terminal remodel and public lobby improvements with a mix of federal and state grants, passenger charges, and cash reserves. The commission also plans 1.25 million in security and concourse upgrades.
Donald Swanson the airport director of finance and administration told the commission that the proposed extra two dollars per day for short term parking will generate about 260000 dollars annually yet remain $4 below the current rate at Quad City International.
Swanson outlined a five year $10.7 million plan funded by customer facility charge revenue and cash reserves to repair and preserve parking and pavement at Moline's airport. The 2011 study by Ford Infrastructure & Environment guided the work including a $1 million pavement project and $700,000 parking improvements and reconstruction of the western short term lot.
