The Board's responsibility is to contract for a manager of the every day operations of the airport.Today, the Board has a contract with GPI Aviation to operate as a fixed base operator at the Airport.
The budget for the Board comes from two sources:
- Capital improvements come from federal and state grants supplemented by local matching funds.
- General Board operations are financed from the Steuben County General Fund, through property taxes and miscellaneous sources of income.
