Pre-meeting survey is HERE (deadline July 5).

COLUMBUS – Ohio’s 104 public use airports generate billions of dollars for the state’s economy each year.

The Ohio Airport System Plan (OASP) is updated every 10 years. The last report, released in 2014, found the airport system supports more than 123,000 jobs and produces an economic impact that exceeds $13 billion annually.

One of the goals of the plan is to provide the ODOT Office of Aviation and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) a methodology for prioritizing and funding airport development projects.
