Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Monroe public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Apron Reconstruction Project
The apron rebuild design is 100% complete, with bidding and FAA funding being coordinated. Some tie-down spaces could be lost, which matters for aircraft parking tenants.
Runway Safety and Maintenance Program (EQY-SPAM)
The state will crack-seal the runway and refresh markings from April through June, extending pavement life. Some temporary runway closures will occur during the work, with pilots notified.
Federal and State Grant Applications
The city sought federal grant funds for an airport contract tower and for the Johnson Street/Franklin Street intersection improvement — bringing outside money into local projects.
