TITLE
A RESOLUTION APPROVING A REQUEST AND APPLICATION BY THE CITY OF
PUEBLO, A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION, FOR GRANT ASSISTANCE FROM THE
COLORADO AERONAUTICAL BOARD AND THE DIVISION OF AERONAUTICS IN
THE FORM OF A STATE AVIATION SYSTEM GRANT, DESIGNATING THE DIRECTOR
OF AVIATION AS ITS PROJECT DIRECTOR AND AUTHORIZING THE PRESIDENT OF
CITY COUNCIL TO EXECUTE THE APPLICATION
ISSUE
Should City Council approve a request and application for grant assistance from the Colorado
Aeronautical Board and the Division of Aeronautics for improvements to the Airport?
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of this Resolution.
BACKGROUND
The grant application is for the funding of the following projects:
1) Runway 8L/26R Rehabilitation The Runway condition requires rehabilitation. Porous
friction course surfaces tend to create debris on the runway. Runway 8L/26R porous friction
course surface will be removed (milled) and resurfaced with a grooved runway to enhance
safety. There will be isolated reconstruction on the runway surface where required. Funding
estimate: FAA $6,365,000; State $167,500; City $167,500. Total estimated project cost is
$6,700,000.
2) Ramp Rehabilitation — Phase I : The ramp pavements are in such a condition the aircraft tend
to loosen debris which may cause debris on the ramps. The pavement will be milled and
rubbleized, then resurfaced. This is Phase I of 4 proposed phases. Funding estimate: FAA
$1,520,000; State $40,000; City $40,000. Total estimated project cost is $1,600,000.
3) South East Detention Pond The detention pond needs to be completed to detain stormwater
runoff from the ramp, runway, and taxiway surfaces located on the south east quadrant of the
airport. The detention pond design has been completed and partial construction of the pond was
completed with another project. Funding estimate: FAA $475,000; State $12,500; City $12,500.
Total estimated project cost is $500,000.
r�
4) Environmental — Training Runway The environmental study is a preliminary document to
the proposed runway. The proposed runway will reduce the risk of aircraft and vehicle
deviations and enhance airfield safety. The FAA also supports the closure of the existing runway
contingent upon the construction of the new runway. An environmental impact study is required
to proceed with the proposed construction of a new training runway north of Runway 8L/26R
programmed for construction in 2009. Funding estimate: FAA $75,000; State $1,974; City
$1,974. Total estimated project cost is $78,948.
5) Runway 26R Localizer Upgrade This improvement will allow continued economic
development of hangars on the southeast portion of the airport. The current localizer has a broad
critical area radius that can be reduced with this upgrade. The upgrade to the FAA owned
Runway 26R Localizer will allow construction of new hangars in the newly developed Corporate
Hangar Complex area up to the existing building restriction line. Funding estimate: FAA
$95,000; State $2,500; City $2,500. Total estimated project cost is $100,000.
6) Airport Intem Program An airport intern will be helpful manpower to the airport as well as
allowing them to learn about all aspects of operating an airport. The airport intern will be
involved in all aspects of the airport (administration, maintenance, and security). Funding
estimate: State $12,500; City $12,500. Total estimated cost is $25,000.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total estimated cost of the projects covered under this grant is $9,003,948. It is estimated
that the FAA's portion will be $8,530,000. The State grant application is for $236,974. The
City's matching funds in the amount of $236,974 have been requested with the 2008 budget.
All projects with the exception of the Airport Intern Program are contingent upon the issuance of
an FAA grant.

intern. The 2008 Federal projects are as follows: Runway 8L/26R Rehabilitation, Ramp Rehabilitation - Phase I,
South East Detention Pond, Environmental - Training Runway, Runway 26R Localizer Upgrade. All the projects
are on the airport's 6 -year CIP for 2008.
Runway 8L/26R Rehabilitation - Runway 8L/26R porous friction course surface will be removed (milled) and
resurfaced with a grooved runway to enhance safety. There will be isolated reconstruction on of the runway
surface where required. Funding estimate: FAA $6,365,000; State $167,500; City $167,500.

IDENTIFY THE EXISTING PROBLEM ❑Additional Information Submitted with Application
Runway 8L/26R Rehabilitation — The Runway is in a condition that requires rehabilitation. Porous friction course
surfaces tend to create debris on the runway.
Ramp Rehabilitation — Phase I — The ramp pavements are in such a condition that the aircraft engines are
loosening debris which may cause debris on the ramps.
South East Detention Pond — The detention pond needs to be completed to detain stormwater runoff from the
ramp, runway, and taxiway surfaces located on the south east quadrant of the airport.
Environmental — Training Runway — The environmental study is a preliminary document to the proposed
runway. The proposed runway will reduce the risk of aircraft and vehicle deviations and enhance airfield safety.
The FAA also supports the closure of the existing runway contingent upon the construction of the new runway.
Runway 26R Localizer Upgrade — This improvement will allow continued economic development of hangars on
the southeast portion of the airport. The current localizer has a broad critical area radius that can be reduced with
this upgrade.
Airport Intern — An airport intern will be helpful manpower to the airport as well as allowing them to learn about all
aspects of operating an airport.
DEFINE THE PROPOSED PROJECT IN DETAIL
*INCLUDE LAYOUT SKETCH ®Additional Information Submitted with Application
Runway 8U26R Rehabilitation — Runway 8U26R is the primary runway and is 10,496 feet long by 150 feet wide.
The runway is designed to accommodate aircraft weighing up to 75,000 lbs. with a single main landing gear
configuration (SWG); 170,000 lbs. for aircraft with dual - wheeled main landing gear (DWG); and 250,000 lbs. for
aircraft with dual- tandem main landing gear (DTW). The porous friction course was placed on Runway 8U26R in
1986 and is in severe need of replacement due to surface aggregates debonding and becoming a FOD hazard.
The proposed rehabilitation technique will consist of removing the porous friction course and approximately 2
inches of underlying asphalt then applying a new 3 inch bituminous surface course. The runway will be grooved
and re- marked. There are no electrical or drainage improvements anticipated to be included in this project.
Ramp Rehab Phase 1 —The current ramp area consists of the commercial apron in front of the terminal building, a
tie -down area west of the terminal and an apron east of the terminal area near Silver State Aviation. The ramp
consists of a 2 to 4 -inch layer of asphalt concrete placed on a portland cement concrete pavement that was
constructed in 1944. These pavements exhibit severe signs of raveling, weathering, and reflective cracking. The
proposed rehabilitation technique will consist of several types of construction methods depending on the type of
distress encountered and will be further developed during design. One of these proposed construction methods
will be to mill the existing asphalt, rubblize the existing PCC pavements and then apply a new bituminous surface.
Southeast Detention Pond — There are currently no storm water detention facilities on airport property. The
proposed pond will collect the majority of overland and routed storm water runoff on the airport and then detain,
filter, and safely release these flows at a historic rate. Much of the required grading to build this pond was
completed concurrently with a City funded project in 2006 where the excavation from the pond was used as fill.
The proposed project will consist of completing the remaining excavation, installing water quality features, an outlet
