Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-use Assurance; 
DeKalb-Taylor Municipal Airport, DeKalb, IL

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent of waiver with respect to land.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a 
proposal to change a portion of airport land from aeronautical use to 
non-aeronautical use and to authorize the lease of airport property. 
The proposal consists of a leasing 3.528 acres of Lot 51 of the 
original M.D. Shipman's Farm parcel. Lot 51 became part of Tract No. 1 
(16.83 acres) that was deeded to the City of DeKalb by the United 
States of America as government surplus property under the Surplus 
Property Act of 1944. Tract 1 also is currently subject to the National 
Emergency Use Provision (for times of National emergency), a condition 
that the City of DeKalb would also like to remove from the 3.528 parcel 
requesting the change in use. This subject land currently has a metal 
storage building on it miscellaneous bituminous and concrete drives and 
parking areas located on it. It is the intent of the City of DeKalb, as 
owner and operator of the DeKalb--Taylor Municipal Airport (DKB) to 
retain ownership of the 3.528 acre parcel and allow for commercial 
development on said parcel. This notice announces that the FAA is 
considering the proposal to authorize the change from aeronautical use 
to non-aeronautical use of the subject airport property at the DeKalb--
Taylor Municipal Airport (DKB), DeKalb, IL. Approval does not 
constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in the lease 
or development of the subject airport property nor a determination that 
all measures covered by the program are eligible for grant-in-aid 
funding from the FAA.
    In accordance with section 47107(h) of Title 49, United States 
Code, this notice is required to be published in the Federal Register 
30 days before modifying the land-use assurance that requires the 
property to be used for an aeronautical purpose.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before May 4, 2009.
