State gives $250k to SnoCo. aerospace center

Posted at 4:39 pm by Michelle Dunlop

Snohomish County has received a $250,000 grant from the Washington State Department of Commerce for its new aerospace training center at Paine Field.

The grant was announced Tuesday. The county said earlier this month that it was seeking as much as $500,000 for upgrades including resurfacing the parking lot, adding signs and buying technical equipment.

The county-owned building is being leased to the Aerospace Futures Alliance, which signed an operating agreement with Edmonds Community College.

The commerce department awarded $1.5 million to innovation-related projects in the state.
