County
Subject:ACCEPT Federal Aviation Administration Grant Funding for Byron Airport Pavement, Signage and Lighting
Enhancements
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no impact on the County General Fund. The total project amount will be approximately $666,667.
Approximately 90% or $600,000 will be from the FAA, approximately 2.25% or $15,000 will be from Caltrans, and
approximately 7.75% or $51,667 will be from the Airport Enterprise Fund.
BACKGROUND:
This FAA grant funding request is consistent with the Byron Airport Master Plan adopted by the Board of
Supervisors on June 14, 2005. The adopted Airport Master Plan includes runway, taxiway and ramp maintenance
activities plus signage and lighting enhancements. The pavement is about 18 years old and is in need of pavement
repairs, upgrading to more energy efficient LED lighting and signage enhancements.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The County will not receive the FAA Grant funding necessary to maintain the airfield, perform minor reconstruction
on portions of the ramp, and install signage and lighting improvements on the Airport.
