About the company
Gadsden Airport Authority, doing business as Gadsden Municipal Airport, is a tax-exempt non-profit municipal entity and Department of Transportation-certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise that receives federal airport infrastructure and maintenance grants as a direct recipient from the Federal Aviation Administration. The entity operates as a child organization of the City of Gadsden, Alabama, and competes exclusively for federal grant funding rather than federal contracts.
Gadsden Airport Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of FAA grant awards under two grant programs: the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106) and the Airport Infrastructure Grants program (CFDA 20.117). The recipient has secured twenty awards totaling $9.4 million in combined obligated dollars since 2008, with all work performed at the municipal airport facility in Gadsden, Alabama. Recent representative grants include a $653,000 project grant awarded July 27, 2026, under the Airport Infrastructure Grants program to reconstruct a 29,000-square-foot non-exclusive-use hangar for aircraft storage, with performance extending through July 26, 2030; a $324,815.79 project grant awarded July 31, 2025, to update the airport's comprehensive master plan with revised airport layout plans and solid waste recycling documentation, completion July 30, 2029; and a $956,975.56 project grant awarded July 31, 2023, to seal and repair 6,800 feet of Runway 6/24 pavement, completion July 30, 2027. The recipient also received $418,604.44 in July 2023 for runway rehabilitation and $59,000 in COVID-19 relief funding under the American Rescue Plan Act and Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act.
All twenty awards derive from the FAA Southern Region office. Activity is sparse and episodic — two awards in 2020 and 2021, two in 2023, and one each in 2025 and 2026 — with no recompete urgency in the near term. No subcontract or sub-award activity appears in the source record; Gadsden Airport Authority operates as a direct recipient only.
