Aerodrome financial sustainability
The review found Toowoomba City Aerodrome’s commercial revenue is driven mainly by lease income and fees and charges. Regional aerodromes have limited commercial revenue and may require a service payment, subsidy or separate delivery arrangement if operations change.
Future operating models, leases, fees, maintenance responsibilities or subsidies could affect aerodrome users, nearby businesses and Council’s budget.
