Marana Regional Airport Open House Gives Residents Voice in Master Plan

Marana, Arizona (Oct. 11, 2016) – The Town of Marana will host an Airport Master Plan Open House for airport users and community members on Wednesday, October 26, 2016, from 5:00pm – 7:00 pm at the Tucson Aeroservice Center (11700 W. Avra Valley Road) located at the Marana Regional Airport. The event will allow users and residents to review the Airport Master Plan update, which began in May 2015. Attendees can learn about proposed development and give feedback on the findings. Airport and consultant staff will be on‐hand to answer questions.

“I encourage our Town residents and airport users to attend the Open House in order to see some of the exciting planned future development for the Airport,” said Steve Miller, the Airport Director. He added, “This is an opportunity for the public to also participate in the master plan process as it nears completion.”

Attendees at the open house can learn about the recommended development for the airport, which includes:

  • New airfield layouts
  • Hangars
  • Aircraft and auto parking
  • A potential air traffic control tower, and
  • A corporate complex on the east side of the airport.

The proposed changes at Marana Regional Airport came after a review of the airfield and facility conditions. Input from the Town and the Planning and Technical Advisory Committees were also important. These committees met three times during the project.
