About this opportunity

Marion County, Florida is requesting proposals for development and operation of a 6.52-acre vacant parcel at Witham Field for aeronautical activities, with proposals due October 14, 2026 at 2:30 p.m. EDT under RFP-3789-0-2026/KLB. The county welcomes proposals for non-commercial hangar operators, airframe and power plant operators, fixed base operators, aircraft sales, charter, air taxi, and air ambulance services, without limitation to those categories.

The parcel currently lacks direct access to aeronautical infrastructure including ramps, taxilanes, taxiways, and runways; proposers must address infrastructure connectivity as part of their development approach. Proposers must demonstrate financial strength, organizational capacity, and operational expertise to support the airport's long-term stability and self-sufficiency.

A non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for September 21, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. at 2011 SE Airport Road, Stuart, Florida 34996. Questions and further clarifications must be submitted before the October 14 deadline. No bid bond is required. eBidding submissions are available. Ten planholders have registered interest as of the posting date. The RFP documentation totals approximately 105 MB in file size with multiple bid documents and supporting attachments.
