Lee's Summit airport adds hangars as part of improvement plan

City leaders celebrated the next phase of improvements at the Lee’s Summit airport Friday morning. The city cut a ribbon on a new set of hangars at the facility. The hangars are the latest addition in a list of improvements that included extending the runway and adding a taxiway. Airport Director John Ohrazda said the taxiway project forced the airport to tear down seven buildings. The new hangars are meant to replace those buildings.
