Following authorization at the June 20 Commission meeting, the MAC opened a 60-day public comment period for the draft 2040 Long-Term Plan for MSP Airport.
The draft plan is available online for viewing and public comment. Written comments will be accepted until Monday, Aug. 21 at 5 p.m.
The planning process began in 2019 and was put on pause over the COVID-19 pandemic. “It is exciting to get to this milestone in the process. We can look back and be proud of the work that went into this plan, and we can look forward and see a future vision of our award-winning airport,” said Dana Nelson, director of stakeholder engagement.
