ACTION: Request for public comment. SUMMARY: The FAA hereby provides notice of intent to release certain airport properties (approximately 4.9 acres) at the Fernandina Beach Municipal Airport, Fernandina Beach, FL from the condition, reservations, and restrictions as contained in a Cancellation of Lease and Quitclaim agreement between the FAA and the City of Fernandina Beach, dated July 9, 1947.

The release of property will allow the City of Fernandina Beach to dispose of the property for other than aeronautical purposes. The property is located in the northwest corner of the airport in proximity to the approach of Runways 18 and 31. The parcel is currently designated as runway protection zone property. The property will be disposed of for the construction of a public-use access road to Crane Island. The fair market value of the property has been determined by appraisal to be $747,000.

The airport will receive fair market value for the property, which will be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport improvement project. Documents reflecting the Sponsor's request are available, by appointment only, for inspection at the City Manager's office and the FAA Airports District Office.
