Synopsis:
Lee’s Summit owns and operates a municipal airport (LXT) which serves the Kansas City area as a designated reliever airport. The City adopted an Airport Master Plan in 1998 and has been working towards implementation of that plan. The expansion of the airport was not always welcomed by the community, and Lee’s Summit often struggled to move forward. In recent years, the airport has begun to be seen as more of a business center and economic development tool which helped set the course for a number of airport improvements. The last four years for the airport have been very busy with almost $30M of improvements including runway and taxiway enhancements.
