MO SB1788

Local taxes on aviation fuel and revenues from international airports receiving federal or Missouri Department of Transportation assistance must be spent only on capital or operating costs of the airport, local airport system, or related air transportation facilities

Restrictions do not apply when a private airport is sold to a public entity if the sale is approved by the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, federal funding supports the land acquisition, and the private owner repays unamortized federal grant amounts (amortized over 20 years) plus the federal share of land value for grants made on or after October 1, 1996

State aviation fuel taxes may still be used for state aviation programs, and airport revenue may still be used for noise mitigation purposes on or off airport property
