The total amount of discretionary funds and required match being applied for this year is an amount not to exceed $13,888,889.00. The Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) Airport Discretionary Airport Improvement Program grant (Grant) will be used for, but not limited to, the following projects: • Joint resealing and pavement improvements on various areas of the Airport • Extension of Taxiway Papa The Joint Reseal and Pavement Repair project (Joint and Pavement Project) will consist of resealing concrete pavement joints and miscellaneous pavement repairs on various parts of the Airport (see attached map), and will be broken into multiple phases dependent on funding. Phase I of the Joint and Pavement Project is 95% designed, with construction planned to begin in 2025. The Taxiway Papa Extension project (Taxiway Papa 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 and allow for better, overall operational efficiency. It also provides additional public protection along the west perimeter of the Airport by providing a larger protection zone that will enhance the margin of safety on airport property in accordance with FAA Advisory Circulars. Phases 1, II and III of the Taxiway Papa Project are complete. In previous phases of the Taxiway Papa Project, the perimeter fence and road (Fence and Road) have been relocated during the construction of the taxiway, however, to prioritize safety, shifting the Fence and Road out of the Runway Safety Area (RSA) is the next critical step. The Fence and Road relocation will be designed with Phases IV and V of the Taxiway Papa Project, and then advertised for construction as the base bid. Construction of Phases IV and V of the Taxiway Papa Project will be completed as funding is received. Existing land credits remaining from land donations at the Airport will be used for the City's in -kind match of $1,388,889.00.
