Charleston Regional Aviation Authority to manage Berkeley County Airport, county says

BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C. (WCBD) – The Charleston Regional Aviation Authority will help manage the Berkeley County Airport beginning this summer.

Berkeley County Council approved an agreement during a meeting held Tuesday for the aviation authority to manage and operate the county-owned, public use airport off Whitesville Road.

The county will lease the 236-acre site to the Charleston Regional Aviation Authority beginning July 1, 2025, and all employees at the airport will transition to employment with the CRAA.

“Our dedicated staff will be joining a team of experts who offer resources and opportunities that should bring significant and lasting improvement,” said Berkeley County Supervisor Johnny Cribb in a news release from the county.
