The City of Sebastian has adopted a new Economic Development Plan, much of which centers around the Sebastian Airport.     

The Airport has over 80 acres of land available for development of aviation and light industry related businesses.    

At the present time the Sebastian Airtport has $1.45 million available to construct a hanger/manufacturing facility built to your specifications subject to permitting process and City Council approval. Lease rates are available in the area of $2.00 per square foot for manufacturing/hanger space.  

The Airport completed a project in March 2010 to add infrastructure to a major area on the east side of the Airport, adjacent to the new LoPresti Aviation hanger/manufacturing facility.   Click here to see a drawing showing the areas available for new building construction.
