This new facility will provide expansion possibilities for established local businesses as well as ready to occupy industrial building space for new company relocations. One of the biggest features of the multi-tenant building is the close proximity to the airport, with runway access possible. The structure is designed with 20 foot eaves, clear span, and truck high doors. The 5,000 to 25,000 square foot office and industrial spaces can be divided in different configuration to suit a tenants' needs. The flexibility of the interior is as varied as the possible tenants.
All utilities are underground, including telephone service.
Several sites for construction of a light industrial, multi-tenant building were considered before deciding on the Airport Industrial Park. The planning phase began in early 1998. Site work was completed in August 1998 and construction on the building began shortly thereafter. Commissioner Dick Foster, President of the Port Commission, expressed his thanks to his fellow Commissioners, Jack Waud and Glen Beckman for having the courage and vision to move forward with the construction of the building at a time when Port finances were limited. He also acknowledged the Port maintenance staff for their hard work in completing the interior of the new building.
