The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering changing the use of about 62.365 acres of land at Bolton Field Airport in Columbus, Ohio, from aeronautical to non-aeronautical purposes, and plans to authorize its sale. The area is currently vacant and located north of the airfield along Alkire Road. The potential development includes industrial facilities such as warehousing buildings, roads, and parking. Public comments are being accepted until April 23, 2025, regarding this proposal.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to let some empty airport land in Ohio be used for things like big warehouses instead of just for flying stuff. They also want to sell it, but they haven’t said exactly who will buy it or what will be built there.
