The State Aeronautics Division has also agreed to plan for an additional utility grant in 2021. A Taxiway Rehabilitation project is scheduled for 2022. PROJECT JUSTIFICATION: To improve the function and safety of Vance Brand Airport and to meet Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations and standards for a general aviation airport.

The Taxiway needing rehabilitation is near the end of pavement life and is causing excessive Foreign Object and Debris issues with taxiing aircraft. The FAA requires the airport to maintain its infrastructure in a safe and serviceable manner.
