Construct/expand hangar

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded the Missouri Department of Transportation a Project Grant totaling $113,684.21 under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) on August 22, 2025, for administration of the Missouri State Block Grant Program. This grant enables MoDOT to serve as the state block grant administrator, overseeing the distribution of federal Airport Improvement Program funding to nonprimary airports throughout Missouri. The award period extends through August 21, 2029, and supports infrastructure improvements that enhance airport safety, operational efficiency, and economic benefits across the state's aviation system.

Under this administrative grant, MoDOT distributed a sub-award to the City of Trenton (awarded November 20, 2025) designated for hangar construction at a local airport facility. This sub-award exemplifies the program's focus on critical airport infrastructure development, as hangar construction represents an eligible Airport Improvement Program project category that supports the preservation and modernization of airport facilities at nonprimary airports within Missouri's aviation network.
