Reconstruct taxilane

The City of Rush City, Minnesota received a $312,962.11 Project Grant from the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Great Lakes Region under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) to reconstruct 950 feet of deteriorated taxilane pavement at the Rush City airport facility. The project encompasses the rehabilitation of existing Taxilanes B, C, and H, which have reached the end of their serviceable lives. The grant was awarded on September 15, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of September 14, 2029, providing a four-year project period to accommodate design, construction, and closeout activities.

The taxilane reconstruction project is consistent with the Airport Improvement Program's purpose of developing and modernizing airport infrastructure nationwide to meet current and projected aviation needs.
