The Meade Municipal Airport is classified as a general aviation airport. The current airport site comprises approximately 247 acres of fee simple property ownership and 22 acres of easements. Development of the airport facility for the City of Meade was initiated in 1941 by the Chamber of Commerce.

Significant improvements consisted of main hangar construction in 1970, construction of a new primary runway in 1987, upgrades to the airport electrical vault, and other lighting modifications and improvements in the late 1980's. The runway was reconstructed, widened and extended in 1992.
