South Region: Pleasanton Municipal Airport

Pleasanton Municipal Airport has had several major developments this year.

With assistance from the TxDOT Aviation Division, two 12,000-gallon fuel tanks (Jet A and 100LL) and dispensing equipment were completed, along with a concrete driveway and unloading rack. These improvements support future airport expansion, with the city recently purchasing an additional 500 acres. Two 80-foot by 80-foot hangars with offices and Americans with Disabilities Act–compliant restrooms are under construction.
