Update airport master plan

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through its Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), awarded a $146,315.79 Project Grant to the Gordon Airport Authority on May 16, 2025, for the completion of airport master plan updates. The grant funds a portion of the total master plan project, which encompasses the development of updated airport layout plans and comprehensive master plan narrative documentation for Gordon Municipal Airport in Gordon, Nebraska. This funding is coordinated with an accompanying Airport Improvement Program formula grant that supports the remaining eligible project costs.

The project is scheduled for completion by May 15, 2029, and represents part of the Airport Authority's broader infrastructure modernization initiative. The master plan update will ensure Gordon Airport's compliance with current FAA standards and support the airport's operational efficiency and safety objectives. As a planning grant under the AIP, this award requires the Airport Authority to maintain updated airport layout plans throughout the grant agreement period and submit periodic reports documenting project milestones and expenditures in accordance with federal recordkeeping and oversight requirements.
