The City of Rexburg received a $435,493.68 Project Grant award on August 26, 2025, from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Programs, and COVID-19 Airports Programs. The grant funds pavement maintenance and rehabilitation work at Rexburg's nonprimary airport to extend the useful life of critical airfield infrastructure. Specifically, the project reseals and resurfaces 4,205 linear feet of Runway 17/35, 3,355 linear feet of taxiways A, A1, A2, A3, and A4, 2,010 linear feet of taxilane pavements and joints, and 28,715 square yards of general aviation apron pavement, along with associated joint repairs across all pavement surfaces.

The grant period extends through August 25, 2029, providing a four-year timeline for design, construction, and project closeout activities typical of FAA airport infrastructure awards. By funding these pavement preservation activities, the grant supports the FAA's strategic objectives of maintaining a safe and efficient airport system while extending the service life of existing infrastructure at the regional facility serving the Rexburg, Idaho area.
