The location of this Project (see attached map) is on the northeast side of the Airport at Gate 1, where
traffic merges off Interstate 820 (1-820) onto US BUS 287/North Main Street (N. Main Street). Gate 1 is
the primary access point for fuel trucks and other large vehicles to enter the Airport, and this turn lane
will allow for traffic exiting 1-820 adequate time to slow down and stop at Gate 1 prior to entering the
Airport.
Funding for this Project was not included in the FY2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program as
originally both the design and construction were to be funded by the North Central Texas Council of
Governments (NCTCOG). Due to budget constraints, design will now be funded from available funds
within the Aviation Gas Lease Capital Projects fund, and construction will be funded by the NCTCOG.
The action in this M&C will amend the FY2022-2026 Capital Improvement Program as approved in
connection with Ordinance 25073-09-2021.
GARVER, LLC is in compliance with the City's Business Equity Ordinance by committing to 22\%
Business Equity participation on this project. The City's Business Equity goal on this project is 10\%.
