Memorandum
To:
CORTEZ CITY COUNCIL
From:
JEREMY PATTON, AIRPORT MANAGER
Date:
17 May 2023
RE:
CDOT Aeronautics Discretionary Grant Resolution
DISCUSSION
As with all Airport Improvement Program Grants, there is a federal, state and local apportionment. This resolution with the state must be made to approve the small dollar grant award for the projects listed. The attached resolution includes a schedule and budget for two projects; participate in federally funded apron expansion and federally funded access road rehabilitation (part of parking lot project).
BACKGROUND
The Cortez Municipal Airport remains in the Airport Improvement Program that shares costs of approved projects based on a 95% Federal, 2.5% State and 2.5% local share. This Apron Expansion Design Grant and Access Road Rehabilitation have been approved by the FAA. Construction of these projects is anticipated in 2024-2025 depending on cost estimates and further approval. As depicted in the Master Plan, apron expansion is vital to future hangar development as current space is limited. The access road component of the parking lot is the passenger drop off and pickup, as well as a pilot access road to the south hangars. These elements are also vital to the infrastructure of the airport parking lot and accessibility.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Apron Expansion Design and Access Road Rehab projects schedule and budget depicts a total cost of $615,527.00. The total federal share equals $584,750.00, State and local share of $15,389.00 each. $10,125.00 of the local share is coming out of ARPA funding that is factored into the parking lot improvement project, depicted in the schedule as Access Road Rehabilitation. The remaining local share of $5,264.00 for the Apron Expansion Design will come out of the airport budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve the Resolution with CDOT for the Small Dollar Grant Award.
MOTION
If agreed upon by the City Council, a possible motion would be: I move that Council approve and authorize the Mayor to sign the Resolution with CDOT Aeronautics for the Small Dollar Grant Award.
