DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to distribute and appropriate funds for eligible Aviation Department projects. Funding moved in the amount of$1,542,410.00 will be from available funds within the Aviation Endowment Gas Lease Fund to be used for various projects at Fort Worth Meacham International Airport(Meacham Airport)and Fort Worth Spinks Airport(Spinks Airport). Meacham Airport Frontage Improvement Project The Airport Frontage Improvement project(Frontage Project)places an emphasis on Meacham Airport's frontage to North Main Street,which begins just south of Interstate 820 and extends south to NW 38th Street.The Frontage Project will correct infrastructure deficiencies, improve aesthetics and create a cleaner, more attractive entry to the airport and its businesses.The original Frontage Project approach was in three phases,however based on available funding, it is now anticipated the Frontage Project will be completed in one phase.The Frontage Project will include utility adjustments(burying electric delivery lines along North Main Street), perimeter frontage fencing and gate improvements, improve landscaping and lighting,and improve drainage infrastructure. The Aviation Department was recently informed about the availability of funds for the Frontage Project,and funding will be derived from multiple sources.The preliminary total cost estimate provided by Garver, LLC(Garver)is$8,800,000.00,and the additional funding needed for the Frontage Project has been previously allocated(M&C 20-0538 and M&C 20-0539).Design for the Frontage Project is currently being reviewed, and a separate M&C will be presented to City Council after bids are received and evaluated. Spinks Airport Hangar Development The East Side Taxiway Improvements project at Spinks Airport was completed in May of 2020,and consisted of constructing three new taxiways and rehabilitating and replacing the existing Taxiway Charlie east of Runway 17R/35L.With the completion of these new paved surfaces, expansion and future development on the east side of Spinks Airport is now possible. A hangar waitlist consisting of 125 aircraft exists at Spinks Airport.The construction of additional hangars adjacent to the newly constructed taxiways(see attached map)will help address the current shortage of available hangers. Preliminary drawings of this project depict the design and construction of hangars, as well as pavement connecting the hangars to the newly constructed Taxiway Mike.This project will be divided into multiple phases to match available funding. Since no City salaries will be charged to these projects,indirect cost recovery does not apply. These projects are located in COUNCIL DISTRICTS 2 and 6. A Form 1295 is not required because:This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Finance certifies that funds are currently available in the Transfer Out project within the Aviation Endowment Gas Lease Fund and upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances,funds will be available in the Aviation Gas Lease Cap Proj Fund for the Airport Frontage Improvement and the FWS East Side Hanger Developme projects. Prior to an expenditure being incurred,the Aviation Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
