DISCUSSION:
Each year Fort Worth Alliance Airport (Airport) receives discretionary funds from the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA). The Aviation Department is seeking Council approval to authorize application for
and acceptance of a grant from the FAA for the purpose of construction of the Taxiway Papa Extension
Project at the Airport.
Taxiway Papa is located on the southwest corner of the Airport's runway and taxiway system. The
purpose of this project is to extend Taxiway Papa north. The extension is necessary to provide operational
efficiency to aircraft accessing the current taxiway system by providing connecting surfaces along the
midpoints of the runway environment. Taxiway Papa construction will be divided into multiple phases to
match available funding. This grant will extend Taxiway Papa from Taxiway Delta to Taxiway Foxtrot, as
well as provide connecting surfaces at Taxiways Echo and Foxtrot. This project also provides additional
public protection along the west perimeter of the Airport by providing a larger protection zone that will
enhance the margin of safety on airport property ground in accordance with Federal Aviation Advisory
Circulars.
Indirect costs are not eligible for reimbursement.
AVIATION ADVISORY BOARD APPROVAL — On May 17, 2018, the Aviation Advisory Board voted to
recommend that the City Council approve the 2018 FAA Discretionary Grant Application.
