San Jose Considers $82 Million Private Airport for Google
Proposed 50 year lease with city
San Jose should accept an offer by a major airport operator to build an $82 million private airport for executives of Google Inc. at Mineta San Jose International Airport, a city official said.
Signature Aviation, a British firm, wants to construct an executive terminal, hangars and ramp space "accommodating the largest business jets" for Mountain View-based Google at the San Jose airport, William Sherry, the city's director of aviation, wrote in a memo.
