Marshall Snow Removal Equipment Building

Upon completing an airport master plan, the City of Marshall identified a location for future terminal area development. Recognizing that properly storing equipment and materials is essential to maintaining runways and airport property, a Snow Removal Equipment (SRE) building was the first structure constructed on this portion of airport property. The building allows the City to store and maintain snow removal equipment, lawn care equipment, and raw materials.

The SRE Building consists of nearly 7,500 SF of enclosed, heated space and features the following:

  • Three vehicle/equipment bays of varying sizes tailored to accommodate specific fleet vehicles and areas for sand storage and vehicle maintenance
  • An entry vestibule, office and breakroom spaces, mechanical and electrical rooms, two single-occupant restrooms, and a storage mezzanine for maximized use of interior space
  • Accommodations for future expansion for Airfield Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) facilities, should the airport classification and operations deem those services necessary

TKDA began the project by engaging in a significant predesign study to identify aesthetic preferences, cost-effective building types and sizes, ideal site configurations, and optimization of the project budget. Next, our team prepared architectural concepts for City officials and the City Council to identify preferred alternatives. The final design was carefully coordinated with the FAA and MnDOT Aeronautics to maximize funding eligibility.
