The Mojave County Airport Authority, MCAA, failed to respond by the August 27th deadline to
Mojave County's required August 7, 2026, statutory offer for the authorities' leasehold interests
and related airport assets at Lockland slash Bullhead International Airport.
With no response received, the county is now poised to initiate the legal lease condemnation
process to bring ownership, operational oversight, and public accountability and transparency into
alignment. The county's immediate focus under County Interim Airport Director Ed Ferran,
AAE, will include establishing a complete and verified picture of the airport's finances,
operating revenues and expenses, available cash, outstanding liabilities, contractual obligations,
current capital projects, deferred maintenance and future investment requirements.
Throughout the short, medium and long-term transition, Mojave County's team will work close
closely with the Federal Aviation Administration, the city of Bullhead City, airport tenants and users,
and regional stakeholders on both sides of the Colorado River. The county's objective is an
efficient, orderly, and transparent transition process leading to a financially sustainable
airport that supports regional aviation, commerce, economic growth, and tourism.
