About the ALP Update and Narrative Report
The City of York is undertaking an Airport Layout Plan Update & Narrative Report to evaluate the airport’s capabilities and role, to forecast future aviation demand, to plan for the timely development of new or expanded facilities to meet demand and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) design standards, and to ensure the airport maintains economic self-sufficiency.
The ALP Update & Narrative Report follows a structure established by the FAA. Key components of the study, including the aviation demand forecasts and the ALP drawing set (technical drawings of the current and planned airport layout), will ultimately be reviewed and approved by the FAA.
Draft project materials will be made available on this site as they become available. A Planning Advisory Committee (PAC) comprised of various airport stakeholders including representatives from airport management, airport tenants, the City of York, and others will assist with recommendations throughout the project.
