Report (0125-4653)
Specific Requests or Recommendations & Background & Justification
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director to make application to the Federal Aviation
Administration for a planning grant for a new Airport Master Plan , an FAR Part 150
Noise Study and an Environmental Impact Report on Buchanan Field.
Upon receipt of a grant offer from the Federal Aviation Administration , aiithorize the
Public Works Director to execute a consulting services agreement with the firm of
McClintock, Becker & Associates for the work in the amount of $222,500.

The project is primarily funded through the Airport Improvement Program (AXP) . The
Federal Aviation Administration will pay $200,250 of the project cost. The Airport
Enterprise account will pay $22,250 and it is a budgeted item.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The last Airport Master Plan was done 'in 1977. The Airport has been experiencing a
great deal of growth and improvement over the past three to four years. It is
essential to develop a new Master Plan for the Airport.
The FAR Part 150 Noise Study is substantially more extensive than studies
commissioned by the airport in the 'past. The study will not only identify noise
impacted problem areas , but will also make recommendations as to mitigation measures .
Certain recommendations resulting from an FAR Part 150 Noise Study are eligible for
Federal- Aid .
The Environmental Impact. Report prepared for this Master Plan and 150 Noise Study
should be adequate as the basis for airport capital improvements over the following
three to five years.
The issues contained herein have been discussed with the deral Aviation
Administration and they are in full concurrence with our needs
