§ 26021 County Airport Funding Authority

Key Takeaways

  • •The county can help pay for airport stuff if most of the board agrees (at least 4 out of 5).
  • •They can buy or rent land or things for airports, like runways, hangars, or radio gear.
  • •This help is for airports run by cities, not private ones.
  • •They can also pay for new airplane tech that doesn’t exist yet.

Example

The county can vote to help pay for new runways, lights, or even a place to park planes if most of the board says yes.
