Mr. Farone said. A new federal program to aid smaller airports has six airports in Northeast Ohio seeing green. The airports are Burke Lakefront Airport, Cuyahoga County Airport, Geauga County Airport, Lorain County Regional Airport, Medina Municipal Airport and the Akron Fulton International Airport. Those airports are projected to receive similar amounts in each of the following two years. The money provided through the AIR 21 program is intended to provide small, noncommercial and nonmilitary airports with capital for improving runways, taxiways and other physical assets essential to operations.
Airports also can use the money to finance studies of growth plans.
