Paso Robles Municipal Airport

“The first thing that the city did, after chopping the weeds in the middle of the runway and making the lights work,was to look for ways to develop the infrastructure so that it could find some revenue support for the Airport; the intent was to build an industrial park.The industrial park was initiated after we successfully secured federal grant fund- ing for infrastructure–sewer,water, power, and streets–into a small portion of the area around the terminal building.We leased this out, long-term, to various entities -non-aviation concerns in a couple of cases, but it didn’t matter; the revenue was what was important.And that revenue continues to sus- tain the Airport, today.
