    The Waterloo Regional Airport requests the release of approximately

and not used for aeronautical purposes. The release of the property 
will provide an opportunity for the property to be developed for 
commercial or light industrial uses.

A, containing approximately 42.12 acres, will be used for future FAA-
Airport Improvement Program (AIP) eligible projects at the Waterloo 
Regional Airport and the proceeds obtained from the sale of the 
remaining property will be used to repay bonds that were sold for 
redevelopment of the Terminal Building.
