SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the
request to release approximately 2.5 acres of airport property at the
Oakley Municipal Airport (OEL) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C.
47107(h)(2). On October 22, 2012, the City of Oakley's City
Administrator requested from the FAA that approximately 2.5 acres of
property be released for sale to Matt Mildenberger of Mitten's, Inc.
for a restaurant. On March 5, 2013, the FAA determined that the request
to release property at Oakley Municipal Airport (OEL) submitted by the
Sponsor meets the procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation
Administration and the release of the property does not and will not
impact future aviation needs at the airport. The FAA may approve the
request, in whole or in part, no sooner than thirty days after the
publication of this Notice. The following is a brief overview of the
request:
Oakley Municipal Airport (OEL) is proposing the release of a
parcel, totaling 2.5 acres. The release of land is necessary to comply
with Federal Aviation Administration Grant Assurances that do not allow
federally acquired airport property to be used for non-aviation
purposes. The sale of the subject property will result in the land at
the Oakley Municipal Airport (OEL) being changed from aeronautical to
nonaeronautical use and release the lands from the conditions of the
AIP Grant Agreement Grant Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C.
47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), the airport will receive fair market value
for the property, which will be subsequently reinvested in another
eligible airport improvement project for general aviation facilities at
the Oakley Municipal Airport. Any person may inspect, by appointment,
the request in person at the FAA office listed above under FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT.
In addition, any person may, upon appointment and request, inspect
the application, notice and other documents determined by the FAA to be
related to the application in person at the Oakley Municipal Airport.
Issued in Kansas City, MO on March 26, 2013.

Manager, Airports Division.
