The Parsons City Commission hears an update on the Tri-City Airport from the new airport manager.

 

 Airport manager Dylan Vitt addressed the commission at the latest meeting. Vitt says the airport provides an important function for the community.

 

Vitt says the airport has decent air traffic and that the sale of aviation fuel is a good source of income for the city.

 

Vitt added that he is exploring grant options from the Federal Aviation Administration and the Kansas Department of Transportation to fund future improvements to the facility.
