Grant Let for Brookley Warehouse/Hangar
The Mobile Airport Authority (MAA) has announced it will build a multiuse cargo warehouse and hangar facility at the Brookley Aeroplex with a $5.1-million Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act Recovery Assistance grant. “This grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration will be matched with $747,275 in local funds and is projected to create 50 jobs and leverage $1.5 million in private investment,” Mayor Sandy Stimpson said.
