Key Priorities 

• Strengthen financial sustainability. Diversify revenue and strengthen operations as bridge toll revenues are no longer available to support other Port activities.
• Support economic opportunity. Encourage business growth and development through the management and use of Port properties.
• Invest in airport and marina facilities. Maintain quality facilities and pursue improvements that provide community and economic value.
• Maintain waterfront recreation. Preserve and enhance waterfront facilities and services for residents and visitors.
• Provide dependable bridge transportation. Maintain safe cross-river travel as the existing bridge moves toward replacement.
• Track progress. Use project priorities and performance measures to guide implementation and evaluate results.

Projects will advance based on available funding, partnerships and further planning.
