Work has already started on adding more hangar space to double the airport’s current 50-plane capacity. The airfield, now considered outdated, is located on the northwest side of Ohio’s capital city.
University officials say the large-scale renovation will help open travel to both Columbus and Ohio State.
A comprehensive 10-year plan for the airport is scheduled to be completed within 12 to 18 months.
