Construct/expand hangar

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded Carroll County Airport a project grant totaling $157,250.53 under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to construct a new 7,350 square foot sponsor-owned hangar for aircraft storage. The award, obligated on August 19, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of August 18, 2029, represents a portion of the total project funding, with an associated Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) Airport Infrastructure Grant funding the remaining eligible project costs. The hangar construction is designed to enhance the airport's revenue-generating capacity and move toward operational self-sustainability.

This project directly supports the FAA's strategic objectives of safety, operational excellence, and long-term economic benefits through airport infrastructure investment. The Airport Improvement Program, which encompasses traditional AIP funding, IIJA appropriations, and COVID-19 relief grants, provides federal support to public-use airports nationwide for infrastructure modernization and development. Carroll County Airport, operating under Carroll County as the awardee, is required to maintain an updated airport layout plan for the duration of the grant agreement and submit periodic reports documenting project bidding, contracting, work commencement, and completion milestones associated with the federal funding.
