BACKGROUND:
The general aviation terminal apron is situated directly in front of the general aviation terminal building and spans approximately 140,000 square feet. Aside from the main runway, it is the most heavily utilized portion of the pavement and has reached the end of its useful life.
The entire pavement section consists of approximately 7.75 inches of asphalt, placed in multiple layers, with some of the oldest pavement dating back to the airport's original construction in 1968. The top layer was overlaid in 2008.
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
* The Airport Advisory Board supports this project.
* The project is consistent with the Airport Master Plan.
* Staff will coordinate construction activities with Sheltair Aviation, the ramp area's leaseholder.
