Should a 301-Stall Parking Lot Be Built at Winnipeg Airport?
Official title: Perimeter Aviation LP Parking Lot
Perimeter Aviation wants to build a 301-stall parking lot at Winnipeg Richardson International Airport. The project includes moving security fences, paving, drainage work, and adding lights, cameras, and pay stations. The airport authority needs to decide if this could harm the environment.
Why This Matters
Live near the airport or use Ferry Road? Construction could affect traffic and drainage in the area. This is also about how airports balance growth with environmental protection.
What Could Change
If approved, Perimeter Aviation could build the parking lot with 301 spaces, new road access, and security infrastructure. The airport authority may impose conditions on drainage, landscaping, or construction timing.
Key Issues
- Will the parking lot cause significant adverse environmental effects?
- How will drainage and land disturbance be managed?
