The Board of County Commissioners is considering a reduction in the square footage of the new airport terminal. This potential decrease has been likened to a significant cut, rather than a minor trim.

The current airport has been criticized for its cramped seating and limited views, as well as its inability to accommodate multiple planes at once due to a lack of gates.

Further details on the proposed changes to the airport terminal are available from the Aspen Times, which has more information on the community's response to the potential reduction in square footage.
