LOVELAND — Owners of soon-to-be displaced small, private aircraft at Northern Colorado Regional Airport have staved off eviction for at least a month so airport officials can get a second opinion on the safety of 58 hangars scheduled to be decommissioned and razed.

Following a presentation by hangar tenant Rick Turley on behalf of other aircraft owners, Northern Colorado Regional Airport commissioners voted Thursday to halt lease terminations for hangars A, B, and two C hangars while airport leaders order a more thorough structural analysis.

Hangars A and B, the oldest of the group, were to be decommissioned by May 10, and hangar C by July 10, after an engineering report said the airport’s four westernmost hangars had outlived their lifespan, were irreparable and could not be retrofitted to meet current building codes. The report made the assessment after viewing select units that were assumed to be representative of all hangars.
