About the Board

The vision of the Chesterfield County Airport is for a safe, well maintained general aviation reliever airport where people desire to work, visit, conduct business and operate or base an aircraft. With the goal of preserving a balance between recreational, corporate and other aviation activities, Chesterfield County desires a community that has pride in its airport and recognizes its economic value.
