Construction of Aurora State Airport’s air traffic control tower continues, as workers perform exterior work in beautiful weather.

Aurora has Oregon’s fourth busiest airport. Construction of the Aurora State Airport control tower is estimated at 3.3 million dollars, with completion expected around January, 2015.

Interesting History
The airport was built by the United States Army Air Forces in 1943 when it was known as the ‘Aurora Flight Strip.’ It was an outlying supporting airfield to Portland’s Army Air Base for military aircraft on training flights. The future Aurora Airport was then closed after World War II, and turned over for state government use by the War Assets Administration (WAA).

Tower Background
The new Aurora State Airport tower has been on and off the facility’s master plan since 1978. Given the airport’s mixed traffic use of corporate jets, air-ambulance, recreation flyers, plus fixed wing and helicopter training operations, combined with a no radar service below 2,500 feet, aviation professionals consider the new tower critical to air safety.

The Oregon Department of Aviation arranged funding for the tower with state lottery dollars, along with FAA and other state funds.

Plenty of room for your own private garden and double carport. Low traffic neighborhood with a cul-de-sac, too. Because  this a 1970’s-era manufactured home, lender financing is not likely. However, cash or possible seller financing with a very large down payment are possible options.

Many Aurora residents and visitors would prefer not to drive to another town to shop. And keeping purchases close to home can benefit our Aurora economy.

Fact is, there aren’t a lot of stores in Aurora for many daily needs. A hardware store or grocery store, among others have been mentioned that could fit in our community.
