The FAA is thinking about letting Lakewood Township sell nearly 60 acres of airport land in Lakewood, NJ.

People can share their thoughts before the FAA makes a final decision, and this change won’t mess with the airport’s daily operations.

FAA May Approve Sale of 59.8036 Acres
If you run a business or develop property in New Jersey, the FAA is proposing to allow Lakewood Township to dispose of 59.8036 acres of federally obligated airport land at Lakewood Airport. The land was acquired with Airport Improvement Program federal grants (Grants #3-34-SBGP-04-95 and #3-34-SBGP-05-96 and AIP BGP # -34-0076-01-96), and the FAA is seeking public comment before making a final decision.
Land Zoned for Airport Business Commercial Use
The FAA says the land will be used in a way that matches the local zoning of "Airport Business Commercial," meaning the property will be for business or commercial uses rather than airport operations. The FAA also states the change "will not interfere with the airport or its operation."
Public Comment Opportunity Before Final Decision
You (Lakewood-area residents and stakeholders) can submit public comments to the FAA before it issues a final decision on the proposed disposal of the 59.8036 acres at Lakewood Airport. The notice invites public input as part of the FAA's proposed ruling process.
