Airport Improvement Program
Program Description:
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Improvement Program was established to provide funding for Capital Projects at airports throughout the United States. This funding is critical to maintain infrastructure to support air transportation safety, capacity and security. Pursuit of ARRA Grants for our airport system furthers this national endeavor.

Total project total is $5,557,410. The City will be contacted after June 17, 2009 if funds are available for the Airfield Lighting Project at AIS.
