DISCUSSION:
The Texas Department of Transportation Aviation Division(TxDOT)has advised the Aviation Department that funding is available for design,
engineering and construction services for the replacement of airfield lighting and pavement rehabilitation at Fort Worth Spinks Airport(Airport).
Based on the most recent Pavement Condition Index(PC I)Report completed by Garver Engineering in 2012, Runway 17R/35L and the
surrounding taxiways are scheduled for repair and rehabilitation.Additionally,the current airfield lighting system is past its useful life,therefore
upgrading the runway and taxiway lighting systems with the rehabilitation of the pavement is imperative.
Finally,the standards for airport markings were revised on May 10,2019 by the Federal Aviation Administration(FAA). Due to these revisions,the
markings on Runway 17R/35L need to be updated in order to meet the new FAA criteria.Re-marking of the runway and taxiways will be included in
this project.
Indirect costs are not eligible for reimbursement.
Upon approval of this M&C,all appropriations and funding will be summarized in the table below:
Fund Amount

Match Requirement)
TxDOT Grant Funds $
3,600,000.00

Because the designated match funds were not appropriated for transfer,specific approval for transfer of these funds was needed.
