Deal to pave road at Falcon Field may be coming soonBy JOHN
MUNFORD
At its meeting Wednesday night, the Peachtree City Airport Authority will consider an agreement between itself, Peachtree City and Fayette County to have a crucial road paved to provide access to a new hangar area. The Stallings Road paving is crucial so prospective tenants can begin to build their hangars at the site on Falcon Field, which is anticipated to boost the authority's income by $4,000 a month. The hangar area has been complete for several months but the authority has been unable to offer it to tenants because the road leading to it is gravel and not paved. If the agreement is approved by the agencies involved, the county will provide equipment and labor for the paving of the road while Peachtree City will be responsible for engineering services, coordinating the project and building the curb, gutter and drainage facilities. The authority has already gotten $150,000 in committments for the project from Peachtree City Holdings, LLC and the Peachtree City Water and Sewerage Authority. Both entities would also benefit from the portion of Stallings Road since they have parcels which use Stallings Road as an access point. The agreement also requires the authority to maintain the road for two years before the city takes possession of it.
