Airport improvements OK’d by commissioners
The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously at its Sept. 15 regular meeting to approve a resolution addressing several features at the county-owned Atlanta Speedway Airport in Hampton.
Design work for taxiway improvements at a cost of $83,069.44 will be covered by 95% federal reimbursement and 5% state reimbursement, as will the $12,500 cost to furnish and install new beacon equipment. The county will also be reimbursement for some work that has already been done at the airport, a total of $48,645 for surveying a runway approach and removal of some tree obstructions.
