Gov. Rick Snyder signs bill authorizing creation of regional airport authority in Kent County
After several years of consideration and planning, Kent County will be permitted to move forward on creating a regional airport authority, under legislation signed today by Gov. Rick Snyder.
“Grand Rapids continues to demonstrate strong economic growth and is quickly becoming a business powerhouse of the Midwest,” Snyder said. “Formation of this regional airport authority will enable more talent attraction and tourism to West Michigan.”
House Bill 4468, sponsored by state Rep. Rob VerHeulen, provides for the incorporation of a regional airport authority to assume jurisdiction of an airport that is owned or operated by a municipality.
The bill was cosponsored by Kent County representatives from both parties and approved unanimously by the House and Senate. It is now Public Act 95 of 2015.
