TITLE
A RESOLUTION APPROVING AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO A FEDERAL GRANT
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF PUEBLO, A MUNICIPAL
CORPORATION, AND THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION FOR
PROJECT NO. 3-08-0046-22 AND AUTHORIZING THE PRESIDENT OF THE CITY
COUNCIL TO EXECUTE SAME
ISSUE
Should City Council approve an amendment to Federal Grant No. 3-08-0046-22 that
would amend the grant to cover the acquisition ora handicap passenger lift device?
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of this Resolution.
BACKGROUND
City Council approved a Federal Grant on August 25, 2003 for the purchase and
installation of security gates and associated computerized monitoring software. The
acquisition of the handicap passenger lift device was suppose to be included in the grant
but the FAA did not have the funds at that time for the passenger lift. They have since
found funding for the lift and want to include it with the current grant.
The passenger lift is needed especially for the casino charter flights. Currently, persons
in wheelchairs have to be carried up the stairs into the aircraft by airline personnel.
Besides posing a safety hazard, the airport is not in compliance with FAA standards
regarding the loading of passengers and could possibly lose the charter flights because of
this.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The passenger lift is estimated to cost around $35,000. Funds for the passenger lift were
budgeted in the Airport's Capital Outlay budget. The FAA's portion of the passenger lift
will be 90% or approximately $31,500 and the City's matching funds will be 10% or
approximately $3,500.
