The City Council of Santa Monica has voted to begin the process of closing Santa Monica Municipal Airport (KSMO).
The vote, which occurred January 24, was greenlit by an agreement made in 2017 between the FAA and city officials allowing the closure to happen.
According to the FAA, the 2017 agreement “requires the city to maintain continuous and stable operation of the airport for 12 years, until December 31, 2028, and after that the city has the right to close the airport.” The agreement also stipulated that the runway at KSMO be shortened from 4,973 feet to the current 3,500 feet.
