DISCUSSION:
The Perimeter Road Project at Meacham International Airport greatly enhances airport safety by
eliminating over 4,500 annual runway fuel truck and airport vehicle crossings by allowing a driving route
around the primary runway and runway safety area.
On April 3, 2007, (M &C G- 15660) City Council authorized the acceptance of a grant from Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT) in the amount of $8,091,000.00 for construction fees associated
with the repair of Runway 16 -34. City funds in the amount of $899,000.00 were submitted to TxDOT for
the City's 10 percent local match obligations.
On August 17, 2010, (M &C C- 24404) the City Council authorized the acceptance of a grant from TxDOT
in the amount of $2,022,750.00 for design and construction of Phase 2 of the Perimeter Road

Project. City funds in the amount of $224,750.00 were submitted to TxDOT for the City's 10 percent local
match. This brought the total grant match amount to $1,123,750.00.
Phases 1 and 3 of the Perimeter Road Project includes: completion of the Perimeter Road between the
Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Station and Taxiway Mike (Phase 1), and between Hangar 45S and
Hangar 52S (Phase 3), as well as the removal of Taxiway Kilo and Taxiway C -1 between Taxilane Charlie
and Runway 9 -27. The cost of this work is estimated to be $1,600,041.00.
There currently is a balance of $998,075.00 in unused funds from the TxDOT grants mentioned above. It
is recommended that the City Council authorize an Amendment to the City's Grant Agreement with TxDOT
for the Perimeter Road Project that allows these unused funds to be reallocated to pay for work
associated with Phases 1 and 3. The remaining cost, estimated to be $601,966.00, will be fully funded by
the City from Airport Gas Lease revenues.
Meacham International Airport is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations,
receipt of the Grant Amendment, and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances, funds will be
