Village Of Kelleys Island

Village of Kelleys Island is a U.S. local government municipality located on Kelleys Island, Ohio, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) since 2009. As a government entity, the village primarily focuses on managing local infrastructure and airport-related improvements, with a specific emphasis on enhancing airport safety and operational capabilities. The organization is positioned as a small local government that actively seeks and receives federal grant funding to support critical infrastructure development and maintenance projects.

The village has received multiple federal grants primarily from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), specifically through the Airport Improvement Program. These grants have supported comprehensive airport infrastructure projects, including runway safety area extensions, runway lighting system reconstruction, pavement marking rehabilitation, and environmental assessments. Notably, the village has been awarded several COVID-19 related economic relief grants, such as those from the American Rescue Plan Act and Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, which provided funding for airport operations, personnel costs, cleaning, sanitization, and pandemic response efforts. The most significant recent grant awards include a $385,989.47 grant for runway safety area construction, a $398,323 environmental assessment grant, and multiple smaller grants for airport lighting and infrastructure improvements, all of which demonstrate the village's commitment to maintaining and enhancing local airport infrastructure through federal funding mechanisms.
