(KLZA)-- Improvements are planned for the Pawnee City Municipal Airport.
The Pawnee City Airport Authority is getting ready to construct a new 80 x 80 foot building for storing airplanes. Depending on the size of the planes, the facility should be large enough to hold an additional 6 - 10 airplanes. The building would include a bi-fold door and there will be a concrete ramp and concrete taxi-lane built to the runway.
Pawnee City Clerk – Treasurer Tammie Stephens also serves as the Treasurer for the Airport Authority. She told MSCNEWS the grant will cover 90-percent of the cost for the project with a local match of 10-percent.
Currently there is one large building to store planes and several individual hangars, but the airport is full of planes and the Airport Authority has received a number or requests for a place to store more planes.
The timetable for construction of the building is not yet finalized.
