body

BRIEF OVERVIEW

Originally constructed in the 1940’s the decommissioned runway has deteriorated and requires rehabilitation to allow for future growth.  The former runway will be improved and brought up to current Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) design standards.  The project will consist of converting approximately 2,100 feet of the runway to an active taxiway and prepare the southwest side of the airfield for future aviation development as depicted on the approved Airport Layout Plan. 

 

If awarded, the FAA funding will be in addition to funding already awarded Hernando County by the Florida Department of Transportation.

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT

This pre-application will not have any financial impact to the Airport.

 

LEGAL NOTE

The Board is authorized to act on this matter pursuant to Chapter 125, Florida Statutes.
