Cedar Rapids Airport Eyes Fees for Nonlease Users
Cedar Rapids airport officials, led by Roy Jameson, propose permit fees for about 15 nonlease tenants using airport facilities. The plan targets rental cars, freight firms, and hotels that currently pay nothing, to create equity with leased tenants who already pay rent and a 10 percent gross income share. The move aims to regulate airport use and level compliance, though details remain under discussion.
