Proposed Will Rogers Municipal Airport, City of Claremore, Oklahoma
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide a replacement facility for the existing airport which is inadequate in length (less than 3000 feet), has poor wind orientation (5/23), is not paved, is not lighted, is poorly situated with respect to the city and cannot be lengthened due to surrounding land uses. The lengthening of the existing runway which is at 50 degrees to the prevailing winds would be contributing to the permanent establishment of a safety hazard. The development at the existing site is further hindered by the close proximity, to the south and southeast, of the Claremore Health Center, an elementary school, the proposed construction of a high school, an existing nursing home, apartments, and fully developed subdivisions. The existance of the elementary school and proposed location of a new high school as well as the other existing facilities indicates that the best use of the surrounding lands as well as the airport property itself, is best suited for residential development.
