At the reliever airports, the MAC continued long-term planning processes for Crystal (MIC) and Lake Elmo (21D) airports and initiated the process for Airlake Airport (LVN) in Lakeville and Eureka Township. Key capital improvements at the reliever airports in 2017 involved: Renovating the terminal at St. Paul Downtown Airport (STP), including infrastructure to support a new full-service restaurant and a public outdoor viewing space Modernizing the STP terminal parking lot to provide adequate space not only for airport operational uses but also to accommodate community visits to the facility Rehabilitating runway, taxiway and apron pavements at STP Procuring a new equipment storage building and improving alleyway pavement at Flying Cloud Airport (FCM) Installing new runway and obstruction lighting systems at LVN Improving storage for airfield maintenance products at MIC and ANE Creating aircraft viewing areas at MIC, LVN and FCM so that all MAC reliever airports now have attractive areas for community members to watch flight activities In addition there were more than $8 million in private investment at MAC reliever airports in 2016, with three corporate hangars constructed at FCM and one at ANE. Site work for a new commercial hangar at STP was completed in 2017, with construction slated for 2018. 14 15
