The Scottsdale Airport is inviting residents and businesses to help shape the future of one of the region’s busiest general aviation hubs. Following Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval of the airport’s Aviation Forecast, officials will host a public workshop to share new sections of the Master Plan Update and gather community input.
The open house will take place Thursday, Nov. 13, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at Signature Aviation Private Hangars, located at 15003 N. Airport Drive, second floor. Attendees can stop by at any time to review draft plans, explore airside and landside development options, and speak directly with airport staff and consultants.
The Master Plan serves as a blueprint for responsible growth, ensuring the airport continues to operate safely and efficiently while accommodating future demand. With the FAA’s forecast approval, planners can now assess how existing facilities align with projected increases in aviation activity — data that will help determine when upgrades or new infrastructure will be needed.
City Manager Greg Caton said the update is key to balancing operational needs with community priorities. “The forecast gives us valuable insight into how the airport may evolve in the coming years and helps guide discussions about future improvements,” he said.
Residents can learn more about the Scottsdale Airport Master Plan Update, review draft chapters, and stay informed through the project website or by subscribing to the airport’s e-newsletter.
