The airport board has consistently received federal grants from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), primarily through the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.106), focusing on comprehensive airport infrastructure projects. Recent grant awards have covered diverse initiatives including runway rehabilitation, drainage and erosion control improvements, obstruction removal, and pandemic-related economic relief. Specific projects include installing 95,000 square feet of drainage improvements, rehabilitating 2,800 feet of runway pavement markings, constructing a new 13,000 square foot 10-bay T-hangar building, and conducting environmental assessments. The grants have also provided economic relief through COVID-19 response funding, such as the American Rescue Plan Act and Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, which supported operational costs, personnel expenses, sanitization services, and debt service payments. These federal grants, consistently awarded by the FAA's Southern Region, demonstrate the airport board's strategic approach to airport development, safety enhancement, and operational sustainability.
