THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Consultant Greg Kershaw of Ardurra Group Inc. briefed the Town on a $5,000,000 no-match grant opportunity to fund a new terminal and generator at the Elkin Airport. The grant has no application cost, signaling the Town’s interest in pursuing significant aviation infrastructure improvements if funding is secured.
If awarded, the grant would underwrite design and construction of a new airport terminal facility and backup power, which will later require detailed planning, engineering, architectural design, and construction services. Vendors in airport planning, terminal design, electrical systems, and project management should track this grant application and engage early with the Town to position for downstream work tied to the potential $5 million capital project.
Ardurra Group Inc. (formerly W.K. Dickson) is already advising the Town on the grant opportunity, positioning them as a likely planning partner.
