SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the
request to release approximately 2.7 acres of airport property at The
Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C.
47107(h)(2). On January 17, 2013, the Airport Director at The Eastern
Iowa Airport requested from the FAA that approximately 2.7 acres of
property be released for sale to the City of Cedar Rapids for use as
street widening and improvements or other purposes consistent with the
zoning ordinances of the City. On March 29, 2013, the FAA determined
that the request to release property at The Eastern Iowa Airport (CID)
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:
The Eastern Iowa (CID) is proposing the release of airport property
totaling 2.7 acres, more or less. This land is to be used for street
widening and improvements. 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 Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) being changed from aeronautical to non-
aeronautical use and release the lands from the conditions of the
Airport Improvement Program 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 Eastern Iowa 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 Eastern Iowa Airport.
Issued in Kansas City, MO on April 19, 2013.
Jim A. Johnson,
Manager, Airports Division.
