Update airport master plan

The City of Kodiak received a $455,404.21 Project Grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) awarded on September 12, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of September 11, 2029. This grant funds the update and modernization of Kodiak Airport's existing master plan and airport layout plan, which serve as foundational planning documents for the airport's long-term infrastructure development and operational needs.

The project directly benefits Kodiak Island's aviation infrastructure by providing federal funding to comprehensively revise the airport's strategic planning documents. Master plan updates typically encompass facility assessments, capacity projections, environmental considerations, and infrastructure recommendations necessary to support current and future civil aeronautics operations. As a planning-phase project under the AIP, this award enables Kodiak Airport to maintain current, FAA-compliant planning documentation—a requirement that airport sponsors must satisfy to remain eligible for future capital improvement grants and to ensure the airport continues meeting the needs of the regional aviation system.
