Regional Airport requested from the FAA that approximately 10.42 acres 
of property be released for sale to Mr. and Mrs. Darryl Bresson for use 
as an agriculture operation with future business prospects. On March 
16, 2016, the FAA determined that the request to

release property at the Ankeny Regional Airport (IKV) submitted by the 
Sponsor meets the procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation 
Administration and the release of the property does not and will not 
impact future aviation needs at the airport. The FAA may approve the 
request, in whole or in part, no sooner than thirty days after the 
publication of this Notice.
    The following is a brief overview of the request:
    Ankeny Regional Airport (IKV) is proposing the release of one 
parcel, of 10.42 acres, more or less. The release of land is necessary 
to comply with Federal Aviation Administration Grant Assurances that do 
not allow federally acquired airport property to be used for non-
aviation purposes. The sale of the subject property will result in the 
land at the Ankeny Regional Airport (IKV) being changed from 
aeronautical to non-aeronautical use and release the lands from the 
conditions of the Airport Improvement Program Grant Agreement Grant 
Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), 
the airport will receive fair market value for the property, which will 
be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport improvement 
project for general aviation facilities at the Ankeny Regional Airport.
    Any person may inspect, by appointment, the request in person at 
the FAA office listed above under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. In 
addition, any person may, upon appointment and request, inspect the 
application, notice and other documents determined by the FAA to be 
related to the application in person at the Ankeny Regional Airport.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO on May 24, 2016.
Jim A. Johnson,
Manager, Airports Division.
