Information
Chicago Executive Airport (CEA), owned by the municipalities of Prospect Heights and Wheeling, Illinois, is
in the midst of a Master Planning Update process. This is the first complete update in 30 years; some
scenarios under discussion have created concerns among stakeholders in the outcome.
Stakeholders can be reassured that the public participation process is working. At the Committee of the
Whole (COW) on March 12, representatives from the Village will address the community on the CEA's
Master Plan process. Mayor Juracek, a member of the CEA Stakeholder Involvement Group has significant
stakeholder experience with airport planning and regulatory processes through her active participation in
the O'Hare Noise Compatibility Commission since 2007, serving as its Chair since 2015. She will facilitate
the COW discussion and will provide Trustee Rogers the opportunity to discuss his role on the CEA noise
committee. The discussion will include CEA's role in the Chicago regional airspace from an operational and
regulatory perspective, where the Chicago Executive Airport is within the planning process, how resident
comments have been factored in and how residents can keep up to date.
The Village has a page devoted to the Chicago Executive Airport Master Plan process on the Transparency
portal: www.mountprospect.or /G CEA. The CEA issued a press release late Friday afternoon indicating the
elimination of consideration of runway expansion beyond current airport boundaries as part of the master
planning process. While the master planning process will continue, runway options beyond current
boundaries are no longer being considered. The press release is attached.

and anticipated needs of airport users and stakeholders in order to determine what improvements are
necessary and appropriate over a planning horizon that spans the next twenty-plus years. The process
includes analysis of several factors that the airport must consider in order to operate successfully,
including existing conditions, changing technologies, economic and regulatory trends, environmental
concerns, demand and capacity for airport services, and the financial feasibility of any alternatives it
might choose to explore. The update is a requirement by the Federal Aviation Administration, which
