Reconstruct hangar

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded the Illinois Department of Transportation $245,350.53 on September 7, 2025, under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to administer a state block grant program supporting infrastructure improvements at nonprimary airports throughout Illinois. This project grant, with an ultimate completion date of September 6, 2029, enables the state agency to manage federal funding allocations to eligible airports for capital projects that enhance airport safety, operational capability, and infrastructure modernization.

Under this award, the Illinois Department of Transportation has sub-awarded funds to the Village of Lake In The Hills to rehabilitate an aircraft hangar roof located at 8399 Pyott Road. The sub-award, issued on April 24, 2026, provides reimbursement funding for the hangar rehabilitation project, which represents a typical infrastructure improvement activity supported through the Airport Improvement Program's broader mission to develop and maintain adequate public-use airport systems nationwide.
