Livingston Municipal Airport, a general utility airport, is located on
the eastern side of Lake Livingston in the west central part of Polk
County, approximately 6 miles southwest of downtown Livingston on FM
350 South, at an elevation of 150 feet above sea level. The airport is
situated on 90.385 acres of land owned by the City of Livingston. The
land accommodates Runway 12-30, the Runway Protection Zones (RPZs),
hangar access taxiways, and aircraft parking aprons. The City of
Livingston also has two drainage easements on the northeasterly side
of the airport and a right-of-way easement, which is located between
the most northerly corner of the airport property, for the airport
access road. An airport height hazard zoning ordinance was enacted
November 5, 1991.
Livingston Municipal Airport serves corporate, governmental,
recreational, residential, student and private pilot activities. The
airport continues to be an essential component in the economic
development of the City of Livingston, Lake Livingston and Polk
County.
The Livingston Municipal Airport also serves the Lake Livingston
Airpark subdivision, which was developed in 1986 and is located on the
southwesterly side of the airport. The Airport’s southwesterly
property line and the Subdivision’s northeasterly property line are
contiguous.
Airport facilities are divided into two groups - airside and landside.
The airside facilities include the 3700' X 60' runway, taxiways,
airport lighting, and navigational aids among other items. The parking
apron, hangars, fuel facilities, and automobile parking are considered
landside facilities. A partial parallel taxiway, 35' in width, exists
on the northeasterly side of the north 530 feet of the runway.
FUEL:
The City of Livingston sells 100LL AVGAS using a credit card-operated
system. The system consists of a skid-mounted, EPA-approved, 10,000
gallon above-ground storage tank and fuel dispenser. As of June,
2007, the cost of aviation fuel at the Livingston Municipal Airport is
$3.00 per gallon.
