From the meeting
The board accepted a $1,000,000 FAA Congressionally Directed Spending grant to acquire, remodel, and outfit an existing hangar as an Advanced Air Mobility and Uncrewed Aircraft Systems makerspace. The grant does not require a local match, but the airport still must meet FAA reporting requirements and grant assurances. This creates follow-on construction, outfitting, and compliance work tied to a newly funded aviation facility program.
