Amend the FY2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program. DISCUSSION: The Future Grant Matches project (City Project No. 101731) is utilized as a placeholder to provide future grant matches for grant applications submitted to the Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Providing a grant match to FAA and TxDOT allows the Aviation Department Airport System to fund projects such as but not limited to infrastructure improvements, security and safety concerns, planning and environmental studies, and other airfield improvements. The purpose of Spinks Move from Grant project (City Project No. 102995) is to offset excess expenses exceeding the awarded grant amount in the completed (project is not closed yet since it is not balanced) Spinks Airport North Perimeter Road project (City Project No. C00402) in order to properly account for the grant expenses, and to close both of these projects. The purpose of the allocation to programmables is utilized as a placeholder for future Spinks and Meacham Airport Maintenance programmables (City Project No.'s P00113 and P00112, respectively) as detailed in the table below. Spinks maintenance needs are for hangar and air traffic control tower. Meacham maintenance needs are for airport perimeter fencing and run -way lighting. Funding for these projects was not included in the FY2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program in the amount of $389,355.30; it was also unanticipated that additional funding in the amount of $290,145.50 would be needed to transfer expenses from the Spinks Airport North Perimeter Road project. The action in this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) will amend the FY2021-2025 Capital Improvement Program.
