Item/Subject: Order — Authorizing the Airport Director to Apply for $500,000 in
Grant Funds from the US Department of Transportation Small
Community Air Service Development Program
Responsible Department: Airport
Commentary:
Bangor International Airport is seeking authorization to apply for $500,000 in grant funds from the US
Department of Transportation's Small Community Air Service Development program. In addition, the Airport
has received commitments of matching funds from state and community agencies/organizations amounting to
$50,000. If awarded, the Airport would like to provide an additional $50,000 of its own non -aeronautical
funds to undertake the identified program. Staff recommendation is that if the grant is awarded all funds
would be used for risk abatement and marketing of additional air service.
