The City of Fresno, California

obligations for approximately 13.35 

acres of airport land to allow for its sale. 

The property was originally acquired as 

separate parcels with federal funding 

and airport generated funds. 

Approximately 2.23 acres were acquired 

under Airport Development Aid 

Program (ADAP) grant No. 6–06–0087– 

02; 1.41 acres were acquired under 

Airport Development Aid Program 

(ADAP) grant No. 6–06–0087–06; 3.05 

acres were acquired under Airport 

Improvement Program (AIP) grant No. 

3–06–0087–16 for noise abatement; 4.02 

acres acquired under AIP grant No. 3–

2.64 acres of the land was acquired from 

the State of California with airport 

generated funds for a total of 13.35 acres 

of airport land to be released. 

Due to its location and condition, the 

property cannot be used for airport 

purposes. The property previously 

contained homes that have been

is presently kept vacant and is 

unimproved and does not have any

sale price will be based on an upward 

adjusted appraised fair market value. 

The sale proceeds will be deposited in 

the airport account. The Fresno 

Yosemite International Airport will be 

properly compensated, thereby serving 

the interests of civil aviation.
