      Airport Planner

      I updated the operations forecast data in the master plan, along with other forecasting data and information updates. I am in charge of maintaining the noise complaint system, including contacting citizens addressing noise concerns. I apply for federal grants for airport improvement initiatives and update the airport's CIP to reflect improvement goals and fund allocations. I have also written additional federal applications. For example, we applied for the airport to hold an event that would require shutting down operations temporarily. Communication with the FAA, state agencies, the university, and the community.
