DISCUSSION:
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced the Fiscal Year 2023 Airport Improvement Program Supplemental Discretionary grant
(Grant). Eligible projects under this funding include airport construction projects, associated airport capital planning, noise planning and noise
mitigation projects, and energy and environmental sustainability projects. If awarded, funding will be used for design of the Taxiway Papa Extension
project (Project) at Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport (Airport).
The Project is located on the west side of the Airport (see attached map), and will provide greater ease of access to tenants on the west side of
the Airport as additional growth continues. This Project will prevent dual runway crossings, correct the current, non-standard runway safety areas,
and fulfill one of the primary initiatives of the United States Aviation Climate Action Plan to reduce emissions by improving the efficiency of airfield
operations through the reduction of aircraft taxi and hold times. This Project will also enhance Airfield Operational Resiliency (AOR) by providing a
nearly full-length primary taxiway on the west side of the airfield that provides redundancy to support the resumption of flight operations following an
earthquake, tomado, winter storm, or other natural disaster. Phase I and Phase 11 of the Project are already complete, and Phase III is currently in
construction. Funds received from this Grant, if any, will be used for the design of Phases IV and V.
Since this grant does not support any staff positions within the Aviation Department, indirect cost recovery does not apply.
Perot Field Fort Worth Alliance Airport is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 10.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This contract will be with a governmental entity, state agency or public institution of higher education:

FISCAL INFORMATION ! CERTIFICATION:
