DISCUSSION:
The Texas Department of Transportation Aviation Division(TxDOT)has advised the Aviation Department that funding is available to update the
Master Plan at Meacham International Airport(Airport).
The objective of an Airport Master Plan is to determine the role of the airport in the community,determine the relationship the airport has to other
system airports,determine the requirements and resources needed to fulfill the airport's role,and document the vision for the airport.It provides
the framework needed to guide future airport development that will cost-effectively satisfy aviation demand,while considering potential
environmental and socioeconomic impacts.
In November of 2004, DMJM Aviation prepared and updated the current Master Plan for Meacham International Airport.Since this 2004
update,several construction and improvement projects have been completed,allowing Meacham to further grow and develop.This master plan
update will encompass the expansion and numerous changes the airport has experienced over the past fifteen years and provide a better vision
for the future of Meacham International Airport.
Indirect costs are not eligible for reimbursement.
Upon approval of this M&C,all appropriations and funding will be summarized in the table below:

F
uni Airport Capital $25,000.00(City's Grant Match
