The city-owned Glendale Municipal Airport will be getting federal funds that will go toward rehabilitating its taxiway.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced the award of more than $898.9 million in infrastructure and safety projects through the FY2021 Airport Improvement Program. This total includes $113.5 million in American Rescue Plan Act funding to award all grants at a 100-percent federal share.
The Glendale airport, located at 6801 N. Glen Harbor Blvd., is one of 10 Arizona locations that will receive money. Glendale was awarded $1.4 million to rehabilitate 3,500 feet of the existing southern portion of Taxiway A pavement to extend its useful life and enhance safety by minimizing object debris.
