Plymouth Municipal Airport Manager Bill Sheley updated the Plymouth Board of Public Works last week that the 2022 Discretionary Funding is imminent from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). About $268M will be divided among airports across the country; but Sheley said that he believed the airport would be designated funding for paving the taxiway in the amount of approximately $3M.
Additionally, Sheley has been teaching as an Adjunct Instructor for the Ivy Tech Flight School Program. Though he does not get paid for teaching; he has been afforded the opportunity to take six credit hours per semester. In speaking with the Head of the Aviation Program; in addition to the 130 College Credits that Sheley already has – he is 21 credits shy of an Aviation Management Degree. He took six credits this semester and will continue until his goal is achieved.
City of Plymouth Mayor Mark Senter congratulated Sheley on his academic accomplishments.
