4.Receive update from the Aviation Advisory Committee (AAC) Chair, Ronald Reagan
(Presentation and Accept).
Ronald Reagan, Chair of the AAC, gave an update on a number of topics that
included: A Transportation Safety Administration (TSA) site visit, 2018 AAC officer
elections, Airport strategic planning, drone pilot test program, 4.6 acre parcel
development, a Byron observation area, the Solar energy project, AAC bylaw
changes, proposed construction of a gas station and convenience market near
Buchanan Field, and economic growth in east contra Costa County.
5.Review and discuss the Airports’ proposed rates and charges
This is a continued discussion that originated from the Airports’ economic
This is a continued discussion that originated from the Airports’ economic
development incentive program (EDIP) and strategic plan. In order to better position
both airports, Airports staff is proposing a reduction in the current rates and
charges, implementing new agreements and adding new items to be covered in a fee
schedule. Moving forward, staff would like to take this proposal to the Board to go in
effect January 1, 2019. Both Supervisors were supportive of the proposed plan.
6.Review & discuss the AAC ByLaw changes which include two new seats to represent
the general communities surrounding Buchanan Field and Byron Airports.
In January 2018, the Airport Committee requested better representation of both
airports on the AAC. Airport staff worked with the AAC to review current bylaws and
make necessary changes. Changes to the bylaws included two newly created airport
neighbor seats (this will increase the number if members from 11 to 13). One seat
will represent the town of Pacheco and the other will represent the general
communities surrounding the Byron Airport (Brentwood, Byron, Knightsen or
Discovery Bay). Candidates must reside or work in these areas. Other changes
include referring the at-large seat recruitment process to the Airport Committee and
requiring members to complete Ralph M. Brown Act, the County’s Better
Government Ordinance, and Ethics Orientation trainings within ninety days of
appointment/reappointment.
7.Review and discuss the General Plan Amendment update (Will Nelson, Department of
Conservation and Development)
This item was moved to be discussed after public comment. Will Nelson with DCD
gave an update regarding the Byron GPA. Will Nelson reported that the Byron GPA
is approximately 10-12 months from being adopted. Supervisor Mitchoff had some
concern with the lengthy process. Will Nelson explained that Caltrans had some
issues with the draft Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP) that was
submitted by the consultants as it was far more constraining than originally
anticipated. The next steps will be to complete the Byron draft ALUCP and draft
Economic Impact Report (DEIR), then send the project for public review. Airport
Staff and DCD will continue to provide updates as the project progresses.
8.Review and discuss the three acre business park development at Buchanan Field
The three acre parcel is located on the northeast corner of Sally Ride Drive and
Marsh Drive. The business park development project is in the final stages of the
lease and environmental review process. The item is scheduled to go before the
Board for approval on April 10, 2018.
9.Review and discuss the 4.6 acre non-aviation development update at Buchanan Field
This piece of property is located on the northwest corner of Marsh and Solano
This piece of property is located on the northwest corner of Marsh and Solano
Drive. The original party that was going to be moving the proposed project forward
was unable to perform. Staff opened a new solicitation period that will close Friday,
April 13 at 4:00 PM.
10.Review and discuss the 36 acre non-aviation development proposal update at Byron
Airport
Airport staff received a letter of interest on January 19, 2018 to develop approximately
36 acres for light industrial use. On January 23, 2018 airport staff opened a new
solicitation period with a submission deadline of April 2, 2018 at 4:00 PM.
11.Discussion to reaffirm the July 25, 2006 Board action recognizing Buchanan Field and Byron Airports as
important to the current and future transportation needs of Contra Costa County.
During the Airport’s EDIP and strategic planning processes, it was identified that one
of the main drawbacks of economic growth at Buchanan Field and Byron Airport was
the lack of County priority in regards to airport-related projects. Airport staff requests
that the Airport Committee recognize the increased importance of economic
development and forward their recommendation to the Board for review and
approval. Chair Supervisor Diane Burgis and Vice Chair Supervisor Karen Mitchoff
were supportive of staff’s requests.
12.Future agenda items
None.
13.The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for June 13, 2018 at 11:00 AM.

Burgis recommended that additional seats on the Aviation Advisory Committee be
considered to represent the Town of Pacheco, near Buchanan Field and the communities
near the Byron Airport. A draft bylaw change has been reviewed by the Aviation
Advisory Committee during their February and March meetings. In addition, bylaw
changes were recommended to capture current protocols and practices relative to the

members. It was recommended that the Airport Committee accept the proposed Aviation
Advisory Committee bylaw changes and forward the revised bylaws to the Contra Costa
County Board of Supervisors (Board) for approval.

number of members from 11 to 13, by adding one member from the Buchanan Field Airport
community and one member from the Byron Airport community, and (ii) require all members to
complete the Ralph M. Brown Act, the County’s Better Government Ordinance, and Ethics
Orientation trainings within ninety (90) days of appointment/reappointment, as recommended by
the Airports Committee.
On May 11, 2018, a press release was distributed to the public for the two (2) newly created
Airport Neighbor positions with an application deadline of June 1, 2018. Airport staff received a

I earned my pilot's license when I was 18, and have been involved in the aviation community ever since.
My primary involvement has been with the 99s, the international organization of women pilots who
provide community service to the aviation community, as well as encourage women and girls to learn how
to fly. Serving on the CCAAC would provide me with an additional opportunity to give back to my local
community in an area about which I am passionate.

Describe why you are interested in serving on this advisory board/commission (please limit
your response to one paragraph).
I have been a resident of Contra Costa County for over 50 years, and I retired from county service in
2006. Since I hold a private pilots license (expired), and wish to contribute my time as a volunteer, the
Aviation Advisory Committee seems like a 'good fit'. As a resident and a pilot, I understand both sides
regarding the local aviation industry's impact on the county and residential neighborhoods. I have served
on many volunteer boards in the past, and I am able to work to find solutions to issues by helping to
coordinate committee efforts.

AIRPORTS COMMITTEE 6.
Meeting Date:07/18/2018
Subject:Review & approve request use approximately $49,250 Mariposa Community
Benefit Funds to perform update to the Byron Airport Chapter of ALUCP
Submitted For: Keith Freitas, Airports Director
Department:Airports
Referral No.:
Referral Name:
Presenter: Contact: Beth Lee, (925) 681-4200
Referral History:
The Airport Committee, at their September 24, 2012 meeting, directed Airports staff to schedule
the use of the Mariposa Community Benefits Fund for the full Board of Supervisor’s
consideration.
On December 4, 2012, the Board of Supervisors authorized the Department of Conservation and
Development to undertake a General Plan Amendment study for the Byron Airport.
On December 4, 2012, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors authorized the use of a
portion (up to $250,000) of the Mariposa Energy Project Community Benefits Fund to perform a
General Plan Amendment and related land use and environmental studies for the Byron Airport
Referral Update:
The Byron Airport (Airport) Master Plan, that was approved in 2005 identified a diversity of
aviation and aviation-related land uses for the long term build-out and economic sustainability of
the Airport. To fully implement the Airport Master Plan, it was necessary to undertake a General
Plan Amendment (GPA) process to provide consistency with and allow for the broad range of,
contemplated land uses. The GPA requires an environmental analysis of the proposed changes
before the amendment can be considered for approval.
The Department of Conservation and Development is managing the GPA process that also
includes amendments to the Airport P-1 Planned Unit District Zoning text and the associated
environmental analysis. The initial project cost range of $90,000 to $250,000, depending on the
elements identified during the environmental review, did not include updating the Byron Chapter
of the Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP). Updating the Byron Chapter of the
ALUCP may be necessary to be consistent with the GPA.
During the course of preparing the GPA process documents, an update to the Byron Chapter of
the ALUCP was deemed necessary in order to be consistent with the GPA and to allow full
growth of the airport as envisioned in the Airport Master Plan. The total cost to update the Byron
Chapter of the ALUCP is $49,250. In accordance with the June 8, 2015, Airport Committee
directive, Airports staff is requesting an additional $49,250 of the Mariposa Community Benefit
Fund to perform an update to the Byron Chapter of the ALUCP.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
This is a general discussion regarding the use of a portion of the Mariposa Community Benefit
Fund for the Byron Airport ALUCP Chapter update. The Byron ALUCP Chapter update was
reviewed and discussed with the Aviation Advisory Committee at their June 7 th meeting.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
While the update to the Byron Airport ALUCP Chapter is necessary to provide land use
consistency with the approved Byron Airport Master Plan, the GPA, and P-1 Planned Unit
District Zoning text amendments, this project is not eligible for Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) funding. To date, $148,639 has been spent from the Mariposa Community Fund for the
GPA process and the Airports Enterprise Fund has paid an additional $38,020.80 related to the
ALUCP update. This funding request is consistent with the Board of Supervisors previously
approved use of a portion of the Mariposa Community Benefit Fund for the Byron GPA project.
Allocating an additional $49,250 to the Byron Chapter ALUCP update will result in
approximately $553,165 remaining in the Mariposa Community Benefit Fund for other Byron
Airport projects.

AIRPORTS COMMITTEE 7.
Meeting Date:07/18/2018
Subject:Discuss the revision to the Buchanan Field and Byron rates and charges
Submitted For: Keith Freitas, Airports Director
Department:Airports
Referral No.:
Referral Name:
Presenter: Contact: Beth Lee, (925) 681-4200
Referral History:
In 2013, the Airports Division initiated a business retention and attraction program to strengthen
and grow the Buchanan Field and Byron Airports. Airports staff convened an Economic
Development Incentive Program (EDIP) process, which included a diverse working group
representing leasehold tenants, businesses, flight clubs, County hangar and tie-down tenants, and
the Aviation Advisory Committee, to help staff develop a program that would best help us to
retain and attract new aviation tenants. EDIP participants identified 48 total desired projects and
programs to meet the attraction and retention goals. The EDIP process was completed in late 2015
and included a top projects/programs prioritization list for both airports, Buchanan Field and
Byron Airport.
One top priority item was to examine the aviation use rents to determine if the airports were
regionally competitive. Airports staff conducted a market rate rent comparison and found that, in
general, aviation rents at our airports were at the high end for the regional market, which could
negatively affect the Airports’ ability to attract new and retain existing tenants. As such, on
February 9, 2016, the Board approved a three-year CPI waiver starting April 1, 2016, and ending
March 31, 2019, for aviation use tenants in order to make the aviation use rental rates more
comparable to other regional general aviation airports.
In August 2017, the Airports Division completed updating its strategic plan to best position the
airports for regional competiveness. The strategic plan has a multi-tiered approach that included
high stakeholder involvement to best ensure that it would address the business/tenant needs. The
intent was to create, and then implement, an effective business retention/attraction program to
strengthen and grow the Buchanan Field and Byron Airports to achieve the following:
Best position the Airports Division to react and behave more like a business in order to
successfully compete for marketplace in the region
Improve the financial well-being of the airports system
Create environment that cultivates staff to deliver better customer service, increase creativity
and lower turn-over (all of benefit to our customers)
Create environment that fosters tenant and business retention (trust, confidentiality,
Create environment that fosters tenant and business retention (trust, confidentiality,
reliability and fairness are baseline roots)
Let our tenant and business community know that we are appreciative that they call the
Contra Costa County airport system home
Attract business aircraft and aeronautical businesses
Attract general aviation aircraft and pilots
Regional marketing to increase awareness of the airports; benefits and what they have to
offer
Increase revenue generation
Continue to diversify revenue base
Increase community knowledge, in interest in, and support of both airports
Small airport system that can become an industry model and leader
Distinguish Buchanan Field and Byron as the preferred general aviation airports in the San
Francisco Bay Area for pilots and businesses
The next crucial component in the County’s economic retention and development program is to
implement the top priority projects and activities that were identified by the comprehensive
multi-year process. The top projects and activities are to develop a new rates and charge schedule
for both airports, initiate the development of a terminal building at Buchanan Field, initiate the
development of a hangar and office building at Byron, and initiate projects to improve aesthetics
at both airports. Staff will continue to work with the stakeholders as they move to implement
these priority projects and activities for the Buchanan Field and Byron Airports. The rates and
charge schedule will be vetted through the public process in advance of scheduling this item
before the full Board for their review and approval.
Referral Update:
This is a continuing discussion from September 13, 2017 regarding the Airports Division’s
strategic planning and implementation process for the four identified priority projects.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
This is a general discussion of the proposed new rates and charges for the Buchanan Field and
Byron Airports to best position the airports to be most regionally competitive. Developing new
rates and charges for both airports was a top ranked priority project arising from the EDIP and
AAC priority ranking input that was later reaffirmed through the Airport Division’s strategic
planning process.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
The proposed hangar and tie-down rents will result in an approximate $65,514 reduction in annual
revenue to the Airport Enterprise Fund. However, the rent and fee adjustments are necessary to
make our airports regionally competitive which should lead to long-term economic stability and
viability.

Presenter: Contact: Beth Lee, (925) 681-4200
Referral History:
The Buchanan Field ALP needs to be updated to identify future facility needs, land use
designations on airport and development direction. County staff sent a project-specific technical
services solicitation to the five on-call consultants in order to determine the most qualified firm to
perform this work. Public Works and Airports Division staff reviewed the proposals and
determined unanimously that Kimley-Horn was the preferred consultant for this work.
On December 13, 2016, the Board approved and authorized the Director of Airports, or designee,
to (i) submit and Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grant application to both the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) and Caltrans, and (ii) sign an acceptance of funds under the
California Aid to Airports Program Grant Agreement – Federal AIP Matching Funds grant
program to perform an ALP update. The grant funds can be used to reimburse the Airport
Enterprise Fund. In addition, the Board approved and authorized the Chair of the Board to sign a
Statement of Acceptance with the FAA for grant funds to perform an ALP update. The Airports
Division requested authority to execute a two year contract (July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2019)
with Kimley-Horn for $309,400 to perform the engineering and planning for the Buchanan Field
ALP update project.
Referral Update:
Airport staff are currently looking at options to understand the cost, implications and benefits in
order to make a more informed decision as to the future of Buchanan Field in regards to a runway
extension analysis. At the May 10, 2018 Aviation Advisory Committee meeting, a motion was
made to add a runway extension analysis to the ALP update.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
Discuss the Buchanan Field ALP update and runway extensions analysis. This is a continuing
Discuss the Buchanan Field ALP update and runway extensions analysis. This is a continuing
discussion from the March 8, 2017 Airport Committee meeting regarding an update to Buchanan
Field’s ALP and runway extension analysis.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
This project is eligible for FAA funding. A grant application requesting approximately
$180,000 was submitted for this project. Subsequently, the FAA has requested that the
project scope be expanded to include an AGIS survey which will increase project costs by
an estimated $130,000. The Airports has FAA entitlement funds available that can and will
be used to cover the additional project expenses.

Subject:Discuss the Full-scale emergency exercise week of October 15-19
Submitted For: Keith Freitas, Airports Director
Department:Airports
Referral No.:
Referral Name:
Presenter: Contact: Beth Lee, (925) 681-4200
Referral History:
The Contra Costa County Public Works Airports Division is planning for a Tri-Annual Full Scale
Emergency exercise and training week from October 15th – 19th. Airports are required to conduct
an annual table top exercise of the Airport Emergency Plan. Every third year, busy commercial
airports are required to conduct a full scale exercise of the Airport Emergency Plan. While this
requirement does not currently apply to Buchanan Field, the Airports Division has determined
that it would be better to start conducting these exercises now, in order to be prepared should they
be required in the future. The full scale exercise will allow for improved aviation emergency
response by Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting (ARFF), ConFire and Sheriff personnel as well as by
mutual aid units.
Referral Update:
The Airports Division has entered into a contract with Industrial Emergency Council (IEC) based
out of Menlo Park, CA to provide onsite training from October 15th -19 th, 2018. This training
will include two days of live fire exercises solely for ARFF personnel to fulfill the annual live fire
training requirements of the FAA. The remaining three days will be mutual aid training days with
ConFire. The three days selected to cover each shift at the first responding ConFire stations (5, 6,
and 9). The “B” shift day will be the Full Scale exercise ad will include response from ConFire,
Contra Costa County Sheriff Office, Office of Emergency Services as well as medical units
attached to ConFire.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
Staff will continue to prepare for the Full Scale exercise. This will include gathering the training
syllabus from IEC and preparing the scenario for the mutual aid training days
Fiscal Impact (if any):
The total cost to the Airport Enterprise Fund will be approximately $25,000. Some of these costs
The total cost to the Airport Enterprise Fund will be approximately $25,000. Some of these costs
will be offset by covering the annual live burn requirement of the FAA that the Airports Division
usually sends ARFF staff to at facilities approved by the FAA. Those facilities usually cost
$2,500 per ARFF personnel after including travel and lodging. With nine ARFF personnel on
staff, that will defer up to 75% of the cost while providing better training with mutual aid
personnel.

Subject:Discuss the Buchanan Field aircraft hangar (F row) re-skinning and door
replacement project
Submitted For: Keith Freitas, Airports Director
Department:Airports
Referral No.:
Referral Name:
Presenter: Contact: Beth Lee, (925) 681-4200
Referral History:
The Contra Costa County Public Works Airports Division is in process of improving F
Row of the East Ramp hangars at Buchanan Field. The hangar row reverted to the County
around 2007, after a long-term lease had expired. The hangar siding is in poor condition
and the cost to repaint is comparable to the cost of fully replacing the material. In addition,
the doors have become difficult for many of our tenants to operate and it is more cost
effective to replace them when the siding has been removed.
Referral Update:
Plans and specifications have been prepared for the Airports Division by an experienced airport
engineering firm. The project consists of replacing the existing hangar siding and doors with new
materials. There are seven rows of hangars and the intent is to improve all of them over time. The
East Ramp F Row hangars will be the first as it is the most visible from the surrounding
community.
The Department of Conservation and Development has determined that this project is a
Categorical Exemption under Section 15302(c) (Class 2) of the California Environmental Quality
Act. The Notice of Exemption (County file CP #18- 06) was administratively approved on March
13, 2018. While a Categorical Exemption has been determined, our department requires that the
Board authorize the Public Works Director, or designee, to advertise a project for bids.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
Staff is completing the construction bid package. Depending on the completion timing, the
project may proceed in later 2018 or spring 2019.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
The cost of the improvement project is expected to be at least $496,500. The cost is
The cost of the improvement project is expected to be at least $496,500. The cost is
expected to increase by $192,000 if we include replacing the roof as part of the project. If
we add installation of gutters, the cost is expected to increase by an additional $18,000.The
project will be entirely funded by the Airport Enterprise Fund.

Subject:Discuss the three acre Business Park at Buchanan Field
Submitted For: Keith Freitas, Airports Director
Department:Airports
Referral No.:
Referral Name:
Presenter: Contact: Beth Lee, (925) 681-4200
Referral History:
On December 8, 2015, the Contra Costa County Public Works – Airports Division received a
letter of interest from a private party to develop an industrial business park use on approximately
3 acres of land owned by the County and located on the northeast corner of Marsh Drive and
Sally Ride Drive on the west side of Buchanan Field Airport. The parcel is designated for
non-aviation use on the Buchanan Field Master Plan.
Per adopted procedures, the County notified existing commercial tenants at Buchanan Field and
Byron and publicized the notice to solicit other competitive interest in the property. The response
deadline was January 14, 2016, and the County did not receive any additional letters of interest to
develop this property. On March 29, 2016, the Board authorized County staff to negotiate a lease
with the proposed developer.
In November 2016, the development team submitted a development plan application to the
Department of Conservation and Development (DCD) for the proposed project. Public Works
staff would perform the environmental analysis for the project. Airports staff will draft a lease for
the 3-acre business park. The lease will be scheduled for the Board’s review and consideration
when the environmental review process has been completed (the lease may be approved
concurrently with the environmental component).
Development of this 3-acre vacant parcel for business park use would expand economic
development activity at Buchanan Field Airport and lead to increased revenues to the Airport
Enterprise Fund. This development will also facilitate the growth and development as identified in
the adopted Buchanan Field Airport Master Plan. A business proposal must be consistent with the
Airport Master Plan and General Plan for consideration.
The project was reviewed by DCD and they found that it does not require a planning approval
process. On January 11, 2017, the project sponsors submitted the paperwork necessary to initiate
the environmental review process. The environmental process was estimated to take 4 to 6 months
to complete. However, it has been 14 months and the environmental process is not yet done.
Referral Update:
On Tuesday, April 10, 2018, the Board approved to lease with Montecito to develop a business
park on the northeast corner of Marsh and Sally Ride Drive. Montecito will next start the building
process.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
Montecito is looking to break ground within seven to eight months.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
None.

Submitted For: Keith Freitas, Airports Director
Department:Airports
Referral No.:
Referral Name:
Presenter: Contact: Beth Lee, (925) 681-4200
Referral History:
The development site is approximately 4.6 acres of land owned by the County and located on the
northwest corner of Marsh Drive and Solano Way on the north side of Buchanan Field Airport.
The parcel is commonly referred to as “Parcel C” and is designated for non-aviation use on the
Buchanan Field Master Plan.
On September 29, 2016, the Contra Costa County Public Works – Airports Division received a
letter of interest from a private party to develop a commercial use on the approximate 4.6-acre
parcel. In accordance with the approved selection process by the Board, the County notified
existing commercial tenants at Buchanan Field and Byron to solicit other competitive interest in
the property. The development solicitation letter and publication provided a response deadline of
November 7, 2016, for all competitive interests in the approximate 4.6-acre parcel to be submitted
to the County Airport Office. The County received one additional letter of interest to develop this
property.
Consistent with the master developer selection process that was approved by the Board on May
23, 2006, the Airports staff sent both interested parties a Request for Information packet to
complete and return by 4:00 p.m. on January 11, 2017 accompanied by a performance guarantee
cashier’s check in the amount of $10,000. A selection committee consisting of County staff and
representatives from the Airport and surrounding neighborhood has been designated to assist
Airports staff in the review, interview (if deemed necessary), and selection of the preferred Master
Developer.
On December 6, 2016, the Board authorized Airports staff to negotiate a ground lease and
development terms with the top ranked party. The draft lease will be brought back to the Board
for review and consideration. The environmental review process will proceed on a parallel path
and will be scheduled for the Board’s review and consideration either before, or concurrently
with, lease approval.
Development of this 4.6-acre vacant parcel for business park use would expand economic
development activity at Buchanan Field Airport and lead to increased revenues to the Airport
Enterprise Fund. This development will also facilitate the growth and development as identified in
the adopted Buchanan Field Airport Master Plan. A business proposal must be consistent with the
Airport Master Plan and General Plan for consideration.
The Board authorized Airport staff to negotiate a lease with this entity in December 2016. In
accordance with the Airport’s adopted Minimum Standards, a maximum of 24 months from the
Board’s approval to negotiate with the entity is allowed to complete the lease development
process. It has been 15 months since the Board’s action and the development entity has not yet
submitted a complete package to the City of Concord to initiate the entitlement process. Airport
staff has been trying to discuss the schedule delays with the prospective developer but, as of this
date, there has been no response. Airport staff may distribute new solicitation for development of
the property if the development entity does not soon respond to Airport staff regarding schedule
delays and/or initiate the entitlement process.
Referral Update:
The prior selected master developer was unable to perform. Airport staff proactively solicited for
new development interest in the parcel. The solicitation closed on Friday, April 13, 2018 at 4 PM.
Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):
This is a general discussion about the status of the proposed project. Stage two [Request for
Proposals (RFP)] will begin and a selection committee will commence to evaluate those
proposals. The tentative RFP review date is June 13, 2018.
Fiscal Impact (if any):
