Leased Hangar Space May Be Taxable, Airport Authority Says
Leased Hangar Space May be Taxable, Airport Authority Says Pennsylvania is one of a handful of states that collects “That regulation doesn’t describe our relationship, as a taxes on self storage rents. Airport authorities in at least government entity, to those who we lease space to,” Snyder one county in the Keystone State are trying to determine said to the officials. A recent state audit of authority whether it must collect $20,000 in back taxes from those records dating back to 2007 resulted in the finding that the who lease 65 hangars at Arnold Palmer Regional Airport authority must collect the tax on direct-lease payments. in Unity and Rostraver Airport. “Candidly, the state has been rather vigorous in finding The Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania Airport additional sources of revenue under the current economic Authority board of directors has asked its solicitor, Don climate,” Snyder said. He went on to say that he believes Snyder, to look into whether a state regulation regarding only those who lease hangars and then rent out the spaces self storage services requires the authority to charge the to secondary purchasers must charge the tax. six percent sales tax for space it leases. Leased hangars cost about $300 per month, said the authority’s executive director Gabe Monzo. v AttentionAttention MobileMobile AttentionAttention Multi-SiteMulti-Site StorageStorage Operators!Operators!

Non-Highway Facilities Inventory
NON-HIGHWAY FACILITIES INVENTORY The BHJ region has traditionally relied heavily upon different modes of transportation for the movement of both people and goods. Industries throughout the valley have utilized rail, river barge, and highways to ship and receive goods and supplies. There has also been a long history of public transportation within the region. The integration of all possible modes of transportation is vitally important for the future growth and development of the region. As the transportation network develops and stakeholders grapple with fundamental funding and environmental constraints, it has become increasingly important to make the most efficient use of the entire transportation system. Intermodal diversification and integration provides time and cost efficiencies while preserving the existing transportation system. This section is an inventory of the non-highway means of transporting people and goods within the BHJ region through railroads, water ports, airports, public transit, human services transportation, and shared ride alternatives. Although these modes have historically played an important role in the region’s past in one form or another, an interconnected “seamless” transportation network will help conserve energy, financial, and other environmental resources. In turn, such conservation measures will promote future growth and economic development. RIVER PORTS The region’s Ohio River Navigation System consists of two project pools. From the north, the New Cumberland Pool stretches 14.3 river miles through the region along the shores of Hancock County, WV, and Columbiana County, OH beginning at Mile 40, the Pennsylvania Stateline, and ending at River Mile 54.3, the New Cumberland Locks & Dam. The Ohio River then flows over the New Cumberland Dam into the Pike Island Pool ending at Mile 84.2, the Pike Island Locks & Dam just south of the Jefferson County line at Yorkville, OH. -

The 95% grant funding requests for these projects were submitted to the Federal Aviation Administration to comply with program deadlines. The authority will be asked to consider ratification of the submission at the regular meeting. Executive Director Gabe Monzo reviewed a joint submission with the Westmoreland County Department of Public Safety for a $900,000 Emergency Operations Center grant through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). A $225,000 local match will be required for the project if the grant is awarded. The $1,125,000 facility, which has been proposed in several incarnations since 1985, would be located at Arnold Palmer Regional Airport and would serve as Unity Township’s primary EOC and as an alternate EOC for the county. -

Sponsoring Agency Code Harrisburg, PA 17120-0064 15. Supplementary Notes 16. Abstract As part of the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation’s (PennDOT) airport pavement management efforts, the Bureau of Aviation (BOA) retained Applied Pavement Technology, Inc. (APTech), assisted by DY Consultants, to evaluate the condition of the pavements at 95 public-use airports and heliports and to update their existing airport pavement management system (APMS) originally implemented in 2001. The results of this project are presented in this report and can be used by the BOA and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to identify, prioritize, and schedule pavement maintenance and rehabilitation actions at these airports. During this project, the conditions of the pavements were assessed using the FAA pavement condition index (PCI) methodology – the industry standard in aviation for visually assessing the condition of pavements.
