A TY SECR APPROVED: 2 TH DAY CITY ' 0 E M819 THE CITY OF CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS Ralph H. Burke, inc. pRoPo AIRPORT MASTER PLAN STUD`? AIR TRADE ANALYSIS, AIR TRAFFIC PROJECTI)NS INCLUDING AIRPORT LAYOUT PLAN OF TUB CORPUS CHRISTI INTERNATIONAL, AIRPORT It is our understanding that the.City of Corpus. Christi, Texas, deeires to have a Nester Plan Study prepared uhich will guide the orderly development, expan- sion and improvement of the iacilitiee at Corpus Christi International Aitport.: To mieimize the cost of this study, we wish to emphasize that we plan to util- ize confirmed data and statistics from previous planning studies and records which are current, and other pertinent inforMa tiou that is available to reduce wherever possible the manpower required to produce this report. In some instances, the following outline may enumerate items which appear in earlier studies. It is essential that all the data relating to this airport be contain - ed in one report so we plan to abstract the date from the other pertinent re- ports er airport records. Special Preliminary Study Requirements.: It is our undoratauding that you now have an application pending with the Federal Aviation Agency requesting grants -in -aid to make extensions and other improvements to the existing runways and taxiways. We understand you intend to go to the voters of Corpus Christi for approval to under- take needed airport improvements and Want prompt confirmation of your tentative plans in the form of a preliminary report to be delivered by Day 13. Furthermore, you are particularly concerned about the present structural adequacy of the existing runways to handle present and continued future loadings of Boeing 727 aircraft, because distress continues to develop in the asphalt surface and subbase of certain areas of the runway and tali way pavements. After reviewing your requirements, we wish to suggest the following program es being a logical procedure to accomplish the desired results at minimum cost. Described below in detail are the varioun items We believe are required to accom- plish the completion of the project most effectively. A. Detailed Airport Inepection and Condition Survey A detailed physical inspection will be made of the various airport facilities to determine their physical condition and adequacy to serve both the present day and the future traffic. This inspec- tion will include but not be limited to such items es the Teruinal Building, the parkins lot and roadway system, the apron, ta..iwaye and runway system, the Fixed Base Operator installation, navigation aids, aircraft fueling system, water supply and sewage system and other related facilities.

PopulQtion Growth Projections will be made of population for the years:1970, 1975. 1950, 1965 and 1990 os the City oi: Corpus Christi and also foe the population of the market area which will_be using the sit- part so that the future. demands of the airport may be determined. C. Influence on Nei, hborintj Airports Forecasts will be oade of the effect that this airport will have upon other air carrier airports in the region to determine the penetration this airport will make into the regional air carrier market. D. Annual and Peak Air Traffic Study The pertinent air traffic records will be studied and projections will be made for the year 1.970, 1975, 1980, 1935 and 1990 based upon past and existing traffic and upon our considered judgment, for the following iteme both on en annual basis and a peak hour baste where applicable. 1 - Emplaned passengers 2 • Scheduled airplane movements 3 - General aviation movements a) Itinerant. civil and military flights b) Local, civil and military 4 • Humber of airplanes based on airport 5 - Air Freight tonnage G • Air Mail tonnage 7 - Air Eepress tonnage 8 Gasoline and turbine fuel gallonage 9 - Hangar, space demand 10 • Fixed Base 0,erator facilities E. Technical'Z provementa in Aircraft and Airline Transportation This section of the report will be devoted to a discussion or future jumbo versions of the jets, helicopters, VTOL apd STOL types and airline operations to insure that the airport facili- ties will be designed with these future trends in mind. This will minimize the chances of the airport becoming obsolete pre- maturely because of a failure to anticipate eechnologicei develop- meat or operational changes in air transport development programs. F. Determination of Airport Requiremonte for the 1970 -1990 Period Based upon the data outlined above the following requirements will be determined: (Continued Page 3) Ralph H. Burke; inc.

Preliminary Plans Schematic or preliminary plans will be prepared indicating the layout and arrangement for the Terminal Building er_pansion to pro - vide for the enlarged space for airlines, concessionaires and - publie areas. Preliminary plane will also be prepared for any additional build - _bag Such as an air'cargo building and other facilities which our study indicates may be required. - - - Pare -3- Ralph H. Burke inc. PROPO• Page -4., U. pester Plan Review and Updating (Airport Layout Plan) All of the above requirements will be assembled and the present Airport Layout Plan will be reviewed and the new requirements will be integrated into the updated nester Plan to achieve a -, functional layout which will be economical to construct and economical to maintain. Each of the elements will be placed etrategically in its proper relationship to the other elements to achieve an efficient and functional layout. This Airport Layout Plan will he prepared in accordance with all the pertinent standards and Advisory Circulars proiatlgated by the FAA for the appropriate size of airport for the present day and for the future. I. Zoning Considerations We will make recommendations regarding appropriate coning controls around the airport periphery to protect the airport from undesirable encroachment. Additional recommendations will be made for method° of obtaining clear zone eeeements if our study shows any are required. J. Stage Development Considerations Based on the above study, a atege development program will be recommended indicating the extent of the facilities required for the not major stage of expansion and for the year 1990. P- K. Estimates of Development Cost We will prepare an estimate of the coat of construction for the net major stage of- expansion. This estimate will include all items such as the Terminal Building, other airport buildings, aprons, runways, taxiways and similar airfield improvements, including underground utilities, land and easements. This estimate will also include an allowance for engineering, architectural, legal and appraisal fees, and an allowance for unforeseen contingencies. L. Lease Review All existing leaser with the airlines, concessionaires and other Airport tenants will be reviewed and recommendations will be made for revisions in term or in rates where appropriate. These recom- mended adjustuente will be based upon current terms or rates preys- lent within the airport industry. We will rely on your City Attorney to review the leases for their legality. Ralph H. Burke, inc. PROPO• Pago •5• H. Financing Considerations; Various methods of financing the airport expansion will -be discussed and a financing program will be presented indicate ing the various sources of the funds for development such as federal and state grants•in -aid, revenue bonds, (if permitted by state statutes) and general obligation bends. Recoammenda -, tions shall be made regarding which method appears to be the best for the City to utilize. N. :Estimates of Income, Maintenance and O;.oration Expense To insure that the airport is operated on a self■sufficient basis, estimates.will be prepared indicating the expected main- tenanca and operational expense and expected income from all sources to meet these obligations. These - estimates will be pre- pared ,for the year 1970, 1]75, 1980, 1985 end11)90.- 0. Summary, Conclusions and Recommendations A summary of our - findings will be presented together with our con - clueions and final recommendations for expending and developing the airport facilities. This section will include a recommended program of action to accomplish a.feasible and logical expansion of the airport through the year 1190, Wen completion of - preparation of the report, ten copies will be submitted in draft form for your review end comment, and upon approval, one hundred copies will be printed in final form and forwarded for your use. If more copies are dammed, they will be furnished for the additional cost of reproduction, assembly and delivery. FEE In order to'minimize the cost,to the City - ofCorpus Christi, we propose to prc• pare this study on a per diem basin with an upset limit. In this manner. any assistance rendered to ua by the stuff of the City during the preparation of the study will reflect in reduced effort on our part and _the resultant savings will be passed on to the City, We propose to prepare all of the above items fora fee based upon the payroll charge of the. persons working directly on the project multiplied by a factor of two and one - quarter (2.25) plus reimbursement of the actual cost for travel, lodging, long distance calls, printing and reproduction of the report and other direct expenses. Based upon the above scope of work, it is agreed that the fee for labor (including the factor) and expenses is not to exceed the sum of Twenty One Thousand Nine Hundred Dollars ($21;900).
