Airport study urges phased build for fixed-base operation
A county commission study recommends new hangars and facilities to attract affluent transient aircraft operators and stabilize airport revenues. It estimates a $7.9 million project, including a main hangar, eight T-hangars, and demolition costs, plus a gas line from Columbia Gas of Ohio to serve a planned airport industrial park. The current hangar is aging with noncompliance and accessibility issues, and past operations yielded only about $60,000 after costs versus a projected $283,000.
