Forsyth Technical Community College is proposing a $16 million aviation campus at Smith Reynolds Airport.
The campus would be used to train technicians and mechanics for area aviation companies.
It would be funded as part of a proposed $65 million bond referendum the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners is considering for the November ballot.
The Winston-Salem Journal reports that if approved, construction would begin in two to three years, with the goal of opening in 2019.
The Forsyth Tech campus would complement programs offered at Guilford Technical Community College.
Aviation and airport officials support the project, saying there is a great demand for skilled technicians in the Triad.
