DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to distribute and appropriate funds in the amount of$992,500.00 from available
funds within the Aviation Gas Lease Revenue Fund to be used for various eligible Aviation Department projects at Fort Worth Meacham
International Airport(Meacham)and Fort Worth Spinks Airport(Spinks).
Meacham Fencina
The airport is replacing aged fencing with rod-iron ornamental fence and concrete mow-strip.The existing fence material is no longer
manufactured due to its age and has become unreliable.The new fence will provide improved security to airport property as well as match the
existing aesthetics in accordance with the airport's development guidelines.
Meacham Shoulder/Crack Sealing Rehabilitation
Meacham is in need of general preventative maintenance due to aging runway and taxiway shoulders.Crack sealing and general rehabilitation will
prolong the useful life of the shoulder surfaces until long term funding is secured for full replacement.
Meacham Covered Parking
The Aviation Department is looking to install covered parking for the designated department parking spaces located at Meacham's Administration
Building.The covered parking will provide basic protection to Aviation's vehicles from severe weather events.
Spinks Fence Replacement
The location of this project is on the north side of Spinks Airport,alongside Rendon Crowley Road(see attached map). This will consist of
removing and replacing a section of fence along the airport's perimeter between Gate 19 and Gate 20,as well as installation of a concrete mow-
strip.The current fence in this area of Spinks Airport is past its useful life,and with an increased amount of planned development occurring within
the vicinity of this airport,this section of fence is needing to be replaced in order to continue to keep the airport and its perimeter secure.
Spinks Air Traffic Control Tower Upgrades
Spinks Air Traffic Control Tower is in need of upgrades to its outdated communications system. The system upgrades will consist of purchase,
installation,and training for the new Liberty-Star Voice Communication Control System(VCCS). The new VCCS system will
provide dependable components for air traffic control operational requirements. The current communications system was installed by a company
that is no longer in business,therefore,the existing system is no longer supported.
Funding for these projects was not included in the Fiscal Years(FY)2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program(CIP)due to the new charges being
incurred after the CIP was adopted. The action in this M&C will amend the FY2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program as approved in
connection with Ordinance 2446-09-2020.
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 Unspecified-All Funds&Unspecified-Gas Lease Rev projects within the
Aviation Gas Lease Cap Proj 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 Meacham Maintenance,Spinks Maintenance and Spinks Air Traffic Cntl
Maint programmable projects. Prior to an expenditure being incurred,the Aviation Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of
funds.
