FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: August 26, 1986
SUBJECT: Preapplication for $2,773,350.00 Federal Grant for Improvements at Buchanan Field
Airport, Project '#AIP 3-06-0050-04
Specific Requests or. Recommendation s & Background &Justification
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Public Works Director or his designee to submit a
preapplication for a Federal Grant out of the Airport Improvement Program in the
amount of $2,773,350.00 (90% of the total project) .
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The local share of this project in the amount of $308,150.00 will be funded out of
the Airport Enterprise Fund.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The Airport Improvement Program (AIP) is a user funded trust fund program for airport
development. For Federal funding purposes, Buchanan Field is considered to be a
commercial category airport. There is no assurance we will receive full funding for
the project. The preapplication does not commit the County to any obligation. The
scope of the project can be changed at our option. This project will include:
1. West apron construction
2. Taxiway "J" reconstruction
' 3. Taxiways "J" lighting
4. Taxiway "E" rehabilitation
At such time as it is determined how much Federal funding will be available,, it is
likely that this project will be broken down into two or three phases. In general,
the Federal Aviation Administration has approximately one million dollars per year
available to our Airport.
