SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the 
request to change approximately 14.94 acres of 
airport property at the Kansas City International Airport (MCI) from 
aeronautical use to non-aeronautical for revenue producing use. The 
parcel of land is located along NW. Prairie View Drive. This parcel 
will be used for construction and operation of the Kansas City Police 
North Patrol Station.
    No airport landside or airside facilities are presently located on 
this parcel, nor are airport developments contemplated in the future. 
The current use is agricultural and grass fields. The parcel will serve 
as a revenue producing lot with the proposed change from aeronautical 
to non-aeronautical. The request submitted by the Sponsor meets the 
procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration and the 
change to non-aeronautical status of the property does not and will not 
impact future aviation needs at the airport. The FAA may approve the 
request, in whole or in part, no sooner than thirty days after the 
publication of this Notice.
    The following is a brief overview of the request:
    The Kansas City International Airport (MCI) is proposing the 
release of one parcel, of 14.94 acres, from 
aeronautical to non-aeronautical. The release of land is necessary to 
comply with Federal Aviation Administration Grant Assurances that do 
not allow federally acquired airport property to be used for non-
aviation purposes. The rental of the subject property will result in 
the land at the Kansas City International Airport (MCI) being changed 
from aeronautical to nonaeronautical use and release the lands from the 
conditions of the Airport Improvement Program Grant Agreement Grant 
Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), 
the airport will receive fair market rental value for the property. The 
annual income from rent payments will generate a long-term, revenue-
producing stream that will further the Sponsor's obligation under FAA 
Grant Assurance number 24, to make the Kansas City International 
Airport as financially self-sufficient as possible.
    Following is a legal description of the subject airport property at 
the Kansas City International Airport (MCI):
    All that part of the Northeast Quarter of Section 26, Township 52,
