This 4,178sf administrative building houses the offices of the Airport Manager, the Airport Facilities and Operations Manager, and support staff. Two conference rooms, a waiting area, and restrooms are also located in this building. In addition to supporting daily administration functions, this building also hosts airport-related public meetings. Transportation Security Administration The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) operates in the terminal, with offices in a building west of the Airport Administration building.

The overflow parking lot, located southeast of the terminal, has 585 spaces, and is served by a shuttle to/from the terminal. The employee parking lot, located north of the terminal, has approximately 200 spaces.
