About Portales Municipal  Airport

Portales Municipal Airport (PRZ) is a general aviation facility owned and operated by the City of Portales, New Mexico. The airport is currently served by two runways: primary Runway 1-19, which is 5,700 feet long by 60 feet wide, and crosswind Runway 8-26, which is 4,560 feet long by 60 feet wide. Other features at the airport include a terminal building, a pilot’s lounge, 20 T-hangars, a Jet A fuel truck, and both a Jet-A and 100-LL self-service tank.

The City of Portales is currently updating an airport layout plan (ALP) to map out the airport’s continued long-term success. The ALP update will provide a chance for the City of Portales to identify and plan for current and future facility needs, which will ensure that the city and airport management can coordinate project approvals, design, financing, and construction in a timely manner.

Public Involvement

There will be a public information workshop during the study process. The workshop will be conducted in an open-house format where the public can visit with the project team and ask any questions they may have related to the project. The workshop is typically scheduled in the early evening to allow those heading home from work to stop by or to allow others to come after the dinner hour. The date and time of the workshops will be advertised locally and posted on this project website.

Draft chapters of the ALP report will be posted to this dedicated project website so that anyone can learn about the study process and review and comment on the draft material during the study.
