Marvin Townsend, City Manager RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES By ENGINEERS ARCHITECTS PLANNERS RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES 1550 NORTHWEST HIGHWAY. SUITE 400 PARK RIDGE. ILLINOIS Ir.JD1s 60065 j3121 297-1172 March 1, 1979 Mr. James Lontos Director of Engineering and Physical Development City Hall P. 0. Box 9277 Corpus Christi, Texas 78408 Dear Mr. Lontos: • In accordance with our discussions during our telephone conversation on February 26th, we are pleased to submit our proposal to update the Master Plan Study of Corpus Christi International Airport. Our proposed Study would put special emphasis on the Terminal area, specifically examining the limitations of Terminal Building expansion as now contemplated by the City. We would identify the time period in which the expanded Terminal Building would no longer meet the demand for Terminal facilities. Thus, the development of an entirely new Terminal area would become appropriate. Our forecast of growth in passenger traffic and our establishment of increased Terminal Building require- ments would enable us to determine whether the proposed expansion would be economically feasible, i.e., provide a sufficient number of years of Building use to justify the expansion. We trust that the City will find our proposal to be both timely and satisfactory. If authorized by letter of intent, we would immediately take steps to review the proposed scope of work with the FAA and arrive at any revisions that that agency would indicate to be desired. At the same time, we would begin to prepare for the City materials to be used in the City's application for an FAA Master Planning Grant for the Study. Very truly yours, RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES Engineers - Architects - Planners Texas Professional Engineer Registration Number 27747 JLD:AHS:kr Enclosure: Proposal (2 copies) • March 1, 1979 RALPH BURKE •ASSOCIATES 0 'PROPOSAL PROPOSAL TO UPDATE THE MASTER PLAN STUDY OF CORPUS CHRISTI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS We understand that the City of Corpus Christi (City) is contemplating an early, significant expansion of the Terminal Building, public parking lot and entrance road facilities at Corpus Christi International Airport (Airport). In order to accomplish such an expansion in a manner that would be responsive to the Airport's future aviation activities demand, an updating of the Airport's 1970 Master Plan Study is thought to be required. Ralph Burke Associates, hereinafter also called Consultant, is pleased to submit this proposal to prepare the required updating (Study). The specific redevelopment projects presently contemplated include: widening of the Airport entrance roadway from two lanes to four; expan- sion of the Terminal area parking lot; expansion of Terminal Building service court, air carrier apron and general aviation apron. No runway development work is anticipated at the present time. In view of the above development requirements, the proposed Master Plan Study updating will have the following focus and limitations. Work will be concentrated upon the establishment of Terminal area requirements. The practical limit on Terminal Building expansion will be identified. I£ pertinent, the timeperiod in which the development of an entirely new Terminal area will be required will be forecast. The mode and limitation of Terminal area parking lot expansion will be established. If parking capacity proves to be the practical determinant of ultimate inadequacy of the existing Terminal area, then this circumstance will be weighed in forecasting the time period of required development of a new Terminal area. Inasmuch as runway development work (both new construction and extension) is not presently foreseen, the proposed Master Plan Study updating will not include the preparation of an environmental impact study, nor will it include an aviation operations noise study. Should runway development work prove to be required and should the City determine to undertake such work, then the required environmental study and Environmental Impact Assessment Report could be prepared as a later project. indepen- dent of and separately funded from this Master Plan Study updating. WORK STATEMENT The following task statements are consistent with the work task descrip- tions of FAA Advisory Circular 150/5070-6. All work under the proposed Study will be accomplished in accordance with that circular. STUDY DESIGN Immediately upon receipt of notice of selection to update the Master Plan Study for Corpus Christi International Airport, the Consultant will Page -2-. RALPH BURKE 'ASSOCIATES o 'PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas establish with the City of Corpus Christi and the FAA a finalized scope of work for the Study update. That scope of work will derive from the tentative scope of work characterized by this Work Statement. It will be the basis for the City's application for an FAA Airport Master Planning Grant for the Study. PHASE I AIRPORT REQUIREMENTS STUDIES A. History of the Airport and the Necessity of a Modern Airport A brief history of aviation activity at the Airport will be prepared. The necessity to develop a modern airport to serve the aviation needs of the Corpus Christi community will be discussed in detail. B. Community Inventory Airport planning will not proceed irrespective of the circum- stances and influences of the community. Community constraints will be identified and analyzed as the background against which the Master Plan _Study's realistic planning will occur. These constraints will include, but not necessarily be limited to, the following representative factors: • Geographical Data - political subdivisions within the Airport influence area • -Socio-economic-political circumstances of the community, including projections based on national trends (Reliance will be placed upon existing docu- mentation of the socio -economic -political circum- stances of the community.) • Comprehensive area development plans and their relationship to the Airport • Zoning ordinances and codes - Local powers in regard to control of land uses in the Airport environs • Local and regional surface transportation systems that serve or could serve the Airport (Existing studies will comprise the data base for the con- sideration of surface transportation systems.) Close liaison will be maintained with the cognizant jurisdictional and planning agencies to insure that all factors which bear upon the Airport will be taken into account in the planning. C. Aviation and Airport Inventory A physical inventory will be taken to establish the present configuration and facilities of the Airport and to serve as a point of • • Page -3 RALPH BLJPKE ASSOCIATES 0 PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas. departure for the determination of Airport requirements. The specific items of the inventory and the sources of information will include the following and any others that would relate to the Airport. • Prior Airport Planning Documents • The National Airport System Plan • State and local statutes governing aviation and the development of airports and airport facilities • Development projects currently in force, if any • Airport land use • Interfaces with other transportation modes • Physical inventory of Airport facilities to estab- lish the present Airport configuration and serve as a basis for the determination of new development requirements. - • Existing and potential significant -obstructions as will be delineated in the Airport Layout Plan • -Description of airspace structure, locations .of navigational aids, landing aids, etc. • Meteorological data, as available from the Asheville, North Carolina records center, to update wind rose, if required. • Sources of financing available to the Airport; present indebtedness. Available, pertinent reports will be reviewed and the valid data and projections abstracted so as to minimize needless, redundant effort. Existing facilities will be depicted on a base nap of the Airport area. D. Initial Public Contact An opportunity for the public to be made aware of the Study and to express its opinions and suggestions will be provided at an informal meeting to be held at the outset of the Study. This meeting would be attended by City, FAA and other cognizant agencies (if any) personnel. It will be held either before or during the time that inventory and inspection of the Airport are being accomplished. The purpose and scope of the Study will be outlined and the time schedule delineated. Critical events as they would relate to the public, e.g., the subsequent public meetings and presentations on the Study, will be illuminated. • Page -4- • RALPH BURKE • ASSOCIATES 0 PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas The initial meeting will serve to involve the public and, it would be hoped, forestall possible, later, adverse reaction to the Airport Master Plan, based upon inadequate publicity. It will provide a means of obtaining suggestions and inputs from the public that would influence the Master Plan. E. Airport Inspection and Condition Survey An inspection will be made of the Airport facilities to deter- mine their physical condition and adequacy to serve both present day and future traffic. This inspection and survey will supplement the infor- mation given for the Airport in FAA Form 5010. It will include, but not be limited to, such items as Terminal Building, maintenance hangars, storage hangars, runways, apron and taxiways, the parking lot, roadway system, general aviation facilities, fixed based operator installations and all other, related Airport facilities. The inspection and survey will be accomplished at the same time as that of the Airport Inventory, Work Task C above. F. Operations Survey Forms will be prepared for use in a seven day survey of opera- tions of the Terminal Building and the external facilities of the Terminal area. Those operations will include: • For the Terminal Building passenger flows airline operations • For the external facilities parking lot occupancies curb occupancies by private vehicles, taxicabs and limousines rental car ready and return areas occupancies roadway vehicular counts service court occupancies employee parking lot occupancies metered space occupancies It is understood that Airport staff members and airline employees will conduct the above survey in accordance with the above-mentioned forms and instructions provided by Consultant. Consultant will analyze the survey data to determine peak hour passenger flows and airline operations and peak hour operations of the external facilities. G. Operations Statistics Existing statistical data concerning aviation operations at the Airport will be compiled and analyzed. Such data will supplement the data deriving from the operations survey of Work Task F above. • Page -5- • RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES o PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas Included among the statistical data to be compiled and analyzed will be data on: airline and aviation operations, types of aircraft, passenger enplanements, aviation fuel sales. It is anticipated that the assistance of the Airport staff will be provided in obtaining statistical data for which the pertinent statistics might not normally be gathered. The above analysis will result in the establishment, over a three year period, of peaks and month -by -month trends in aviation operations, passenger enplanements and air cargo moved. The trends will serve in the forecasting of pertinent aviation factors under Work Task J of this Phase I. H. Origin and Destination of Airline Passengers 1. Top 25 Cities A tabulation and analysis will be made of the origins and destinations of airline passengers using the Airport, for the top 25 cities served by the airlines. CAB records will be relied upon for historical data relative to past, certificated air carrier operations at the Airport. Air commuter records, to the extent that they are complete and available, will be analyzed for community of interest information for a recent year of passenger service at the Airport. 2. Local Origin/Destination Local origins will be inferred from a one or two day survey of license plate numbers of cars entering the Terminal and general aviation areas. The alpha -numeric license number system indicates the County in which an automobile is registered and, presumably, therefore, the County of residence of the owner/passenger. This means of establishing the Airport air trade area would provide generalized information, suffi- cient to confirm the area. - I. Influence on Neighboring Airports An assessment will be made of the probable impact that expansion of the Airport will have on the existing air carrier and general aviation airports within its influence area. The effect that possible future abandonment of other air carrier and general aviation airports, or the establishment of a new airport in the area, may have on the Airport will be estimated. J. Annual and Peak Hour Air Traffic Forecasts The pertinent air traffic records compiled and analyzed under Work Task G above will be studied, and forecasts will be made for the twenty year period covered by the Master Plan Study updating (emphasizing initial, 5th, 10th and 20th years). The forecasts will be based upon past and present traffic and considered judgment, for the following aviation factors, on an annual basis and on a monthly and/or peak hour basis, as applicable: Page -6- RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES 0 PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas 1. Enplaned airline passengers or passenger movements 2. Scheduled air carrier movements 3. Passenger boardings per air carrier departure 4. Passenger seats available per air carrier scheduled departure (for current schedule only) 5. Passenger index, i.e., the ratio of passengers enplaned to the population of the air trade area 6. Air cargo handled (air mail, express and air freight) 7. Air commuter operations and passengers 8. General aviation operations - itinerant and local 9. General aviation enplaned passengers 10. Military operations - itinerant and local (if applicable) 11. Total aircraft operations 12. Instrument approaches 13. Number of based aircraft 14. Stage lengths of departing aircraft K. Technical Improvements in Aircraft The possible utilization at the Airport of future versions of corporate jets, helicopters, VTOL and STOL aircraft will be investigated. Any resultant effect on aviation operations will be determined so as to insure that proposed Airport facilities will be planned with future trends in mind. This determination will minimize the chance that the Airport becomes prematurely obsolete because of a failure to anticipate improvements in aircraft technology and the impact of those improvements on air carrier and general aviation operations. L. Demand/Capacity Analysis Runway/Taxiway capacity will be determined. For the initial period covered by the Master Plan, use will be made of the methodology documented in FAA Advisory Circular AC 150/50601A, "Airport Capacity Criteria Used in Preparing the National Airport Plan". For the 20th year period use will be made of the methodology documented in FAA Advisory Circular AC 150/5060-3A, "Airport Capacity Criteria Used in Long Range Planning". Airspace, airside and access capacities will be evaluated judgmentally and/or quantitatively, as appropriate. • Page -7- RALPH BURKE • ASSOCIATES o ' PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas M. Determination of Airport Requirements for the Initial, Fifth, Tenth and Twentieth Years of the Twenty Year Master Plan Period All aviation and non -aviation tenants of the Airport will be contacted in person and by means of survey questionnaires to determine the tenants' own estimates of future needs. These estimates and the previously determined present Airport status and forecast aviation demand will be correlated to serve as the basis for establishment of Airport requirements for the initial, 5th, 10th and 20th year time periods of the Master Plan period. In particular, requirements will be established, as appropriate, for the following Airport facilities and any other facilities that the Study may reveal to be pertinent. 1. Aviation a. Landing Area (presently not foreseen to require expansion) • Acreage • Runways as required: Extension, renovation of existing - Construction of new • Taxiways • Design -loads and strengths b. Navaids/Landing Aids c. Facilities for: • Air carrier aviation • Commuter aviation • Private aviation • Corporate aviation • Charter aviation • Air freight • Aviation schools and flight instruction including: • Hangars (storage and A/C maintenance) • FBO facilities • General aviation and other non -Terminal area parking d. Terminal area facilities, including: • Apron • Public Parking • Terminal Building • Service Areas • • Page -8= RALPH BURKE ' ASSOCIATES o 'PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas Space requirements will be established for the following Terminal Building facilities, based upon the critical opera- tional factors established under Work Task J above. • Ticket counter • Ticket lobby • Airline operations area • Outbound baggage • Baggage claim area and equipment corridor • Airline storage • Waiting room area • Hold rooms • Concourse • Number of gates • Security area(s) • - Air freight facilities • Airport management operations offices and facilities • Conference room • Car rental/limousine/taxi counters • Concessions (gift shop, insurance, advertising space, amusement area, TV lounge, etc.) • Restaurant, restaurant facilities and cocktail lounge • Public toilets • Janitorial area • Equipment, utility, storage areas • Corridors, stairs, elevators, vestibules The time -phased space requirements of the above facilities will be compared to the areas now taken by those facilities, and time -phased expansion requirements will be determined through the 20 year planning period. If, at some point during • Page -9- RALPH EURKE. ASSOCIATES 0 PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas this planning period, the present Terminal area and facilities become inadequate to permit the required expansion, then a recommendation will be made for the time period in which development of a new Terminal area will be appropriate. e. General Purpose • Fueling facilities • Perimeter service road • Airport maintenance • Crash, fire, rescue station • Fencing 2. Aviation -Related, as applicable a. Air-industrial/commercial b. Military c. Motel 3. Utilities Systems, e.g., Power. Gas, Water, Sanitary System • On -Site • Off -Site 4. Roadway System • Airport entrance roadway • Internal circulation system N. Review with City and FAA The findings and recommendations of the Airport Requirements Phase will be reviewed with City representatives and Airport staff. Personnel of the FAA and other cognizant agencies, if any, would'par- ticipate in the review as appropriate. A separate review with the latter agencies is not contemplated. The concurrence of the cognizant persons in the characteristics desired for the Airport will be obtained. The review meeting will be open to the public, but it will not be adver- tised. The meeting is not intended to be a forum for public input. That input will have been obtained in the public presentation (Work Task D) given earlier in Phase I. Comments by the public on the Airport Requirements determined in Phase I will be received during the public presentation proposed for Phase III. PHASE II - SITE SELECTION (DELETED) It is presumed that the present Airport site is adequate to, meet the needs of the 20 year planning period. Therefore, the selection. of a new site will not be required, and this phase of a Master Plan Study will not be applicable. However, the adequacy of the existing site will be confirmed by means of a Site Adequacy Study to be accom- plished under Phase III of the Master Plan Study updating. • Page -10- RALPH BURKE ' ASSOCLATES 0 . PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas PHASE III - MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT Phase I of the Study will have established the requirements and characteristics of continuing Airport development, as imposed by the served market. In order to confirm the adequacy of the present site against those requirements and characteristics, the following factors will be evaluated: airspace structure and interference, community present status and future growth, access and convenience -to modes of ground transportation, availability of utilities, land costs and develop- ment costs. Confirmation of the present site will take into account relevant Airport System Plans and pertinent local and regional comprehensive plans. In this respect close liaison will be maintained with the federal, state, regional and local agencies having jurisdiction over the Airport. The Site Evaluation Tasks outlined below are designed to yield all the information necessary to hold an informal public meeting on the Airport Master Plan. In anticipation of this meeting, Phase III will produce a Preliminary Airport Development Plan (PADP). This Plan, amended in response to the outcome of the public meeting, will be the basis of preparation of the Airport Layout Plan (ALP), which preparation will be accomplished during Phase V of the Study. It is imperative that III be of such scope and depth as to insure that the PADP deriving from it will be an acceptable basis for the preparation of the final Airport Layout Plan (ALP). As such, it is presumed that the PADP will not require extensive modification when rendered as the ALP. The PADP will be presented to the community at the public meeting on the Master Plan to be held during this Phase III. A. Preliminary Airport Development Concepts A Preliminary Airport Development Plan (PADP), showing land uses, configuration of runways and taxiways, terminal and general aviation areas, hangar areas, access and internal roadways, parking facilities, approach and transition zones, provisions for air naviga- tional aids, etc., will be prepared. A sufficient number of trial configurations will be considered to insure that the Airport require- ments determined in Phase I of the Study will be accommodated in an efficient manner, making optimum use of existing facilities and pres- ently owned land, minimizing, thereby, expenditures for future Airport development. The PADP will consist of a single plan sheet prepared in accordance with the pertinent standards and Advisory Circulars promulgated by the FAA and in effect on the date that this proposal is submitted. The stan- dards and AC's that would govern the PADP will be those appropriate to the size and class that the Airport will have been determined to be as its development continues under the updated Master Plan. The PADP will be reviewed with the City, and it will then be submitted to the FAA and other cognizant agencies for reviews and preliminary airspace approval. • Page -11- RALPH BURKE • ASSOCIATES ° PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas In addition to the aviation requirements input and the relevant layout constraints, the PADP will be governed by the following inputs to be developed. 1. Land Use Plans on Airport A land use plan for Airport facilities will be developed. This on -Airport land use plan will provide for the following facilities, if and as applicable: • Airfield facilities, e.g., runways, taxiways, navaids • Terminal area including aprons, Terminal Building, parking facilities and roadways • Aircraft storage hangars • Fixed base operator facilities.. including hangars, apron and parking facilities • Air freight (cargo) facilities • Aviation fueling facilities • Aviation school(s) • Aviation services (survey, patrol, photo, etc.) • Electric sub -stations • Crash, fire, rescue facility • Entrance, circulation and perimeter roadways • Power transmission lines --•. Non -electric utilities • Industrial park • Military facilities, if appropriate 2. Airport Access A generalized study will be made of the roadways and ground traffic between the Airport and: the Corpus Christi Central Business District; points of connection with existing and planned arterial highways; other airports. In particular, the time -phased needs of Terminal area access to abutting primary highway systems wi1L be determined. Any discrepancies or inadequacies will be reported so that they can be transmitted to the appropriate agencies for consideration. 3. Schematic Plans for Terminal and General Aviation Areas The requirements determined in Phase I for development of the Terminal and general aviation areas of the Airport, will be inter- preted in schematic plans describing, in plan form, the configuration and layout of: expanded Terminal Building; Terminal area and facilities, e.g., parking and car rental, entrance, exit and circulation roadways, etc.; general aviation area and facilities, including aprons, hangars, fuel storage facilities, FBO area, circulation and internal access roadway, parking facilities, etc. The schematic plans will show general layout of the facilities, floor areas required, etc. They will serve as a point of departure for later, detailed design development of the facilities by consultants subsequently to be chosen. Page. -12- RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES 0 •PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas B. FAA Review of Preliminary Airport Development Plan The PADP will be submitted to the FAA and, if applicable, other cognizant agencies for review and preliminary airspace studies. If this process should occupy a lengthy interval of time there could result a delay in Study preparation. All available means will be employed to expedite the process. C. Site Evaluation The Airport site will be evaluated in a generalized manner, on the basis of the PADP and the technical circumstances of its location. The evaluation, while minimal, will insure that any attacks on the site, as may possibly arise in the public meetings on the Master Plan, will be answerable. The foregoing work tasks of the Study, along with such soil borings data as may be available, will provide information necessary to make a deter- mination of the adequacy of the Airport to meet the requirements of the twenty year Master Plan period. The technical feasibility of development of the Airport to meet the forecast requirements will be evaluated in this task in terms of such criteria as, e.g., airspace requirements, long range airfield requirements, Terminal area requirements, access requirements. D. Public Presentation In anticipation of the final public presentation on the Airport Master Plan, to be held at completion of the Study (Phase V), a public meeting will be held upon completion of the PADP. The community will be provided with sufficient information on Airport requirements and the responsive development program to make known its reactions and opinions. Work remaining on the Study will be discussed with a view toward accommo- dating the reasonable and practicable goals for and limitations on Airport development that the community would be seen to favor. The further work on the Master Plan Study would be facilitated by the awareness of community attitude that the public meeting would provide. By responding appropriately to the community input, the Plan to be pre- sented at the later, final public presentation would have the highest probability of acceptance and the minimum of conflict with the commu- nity's perception of Airport acceptability. E. Master Plan Development Development of the Master Plan will proceed in accordance with the Airport requirements determined in Phase I and the PADP prepared in this Phase III. Account will be taken of the community response made known as a result of the public meeting characterized under Work Task D immediately above. • Page -13- RALPH BURKE. ASSOCIATES 0 _ • PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas 1. Master Plan Drawing A Master Plan drawing, showing the Airport in its ultimate state of development in the 20 year planning period, will be prepared. This drawing will be based upon the Preliminary Airport Development Plan, amended as a result of the public meeting and presentation held as Work Task D of this phase of the Study. 2. Recommended Development Program The total development requirements of the 20 year develop- ment program will be tabulated and described in narrative form. 3. Stage Development Based upon the Master Plan drawing, a program of staged development will be recommended and graphically depicted. The graphic depiction will indicate the extent of the facilities required in logical increments through the 20 year period. Staging will be accomplished by focusing upon the initial time period and the ensuing, intermediate (fifth and tenth year) and long range (twentieth year) time periods of the development program. 4. Land Acquisition and Easements The land acquisition and easement recommendations of the Consultant's 1970 Master Plan Study for Corpus Christi International Airport will be reviewed, and note will be taken of the City's program to implement those recommendations. The recommendations will be re- considered in terms of the findings of the proposed Master Plan Study updating, and they will be confirmed or modified as appropriate. F. Zoning Recommendations Recommendations will be made regarding appropriate zoning controls in the Airport environs. The recommended zoning will take account (qualitatively) of aviation operations noise, and it will protect the Airport from undesirable encroachment. Any circumstances peculiar to the existing site will be revealed, and the appropriate specific recommendations made. The recommendations will be reviewed with the cognizant planning and zoning agencies to obtain their comments and concurrences. G. Review with City and FAA The Airport Master Plan and the staged development program, as developed in this phase, and the considerations of zoning control, land acquisition and easements will be reviewed with City officials and Airport staff. Personnel of the State and the FAA and other cognizant agencies, if any, would participate in the review as appropriate. A separate review with the latter agencies is not contemplated. • Page -14- RALPH BURKE • ASSOCIATES Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas o •PROPOSAL PHASE IV - FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS A. Estimates of Development Cost A detailed estimate of the cost of construction of each major stage of Airport development will be prepared. This estimate will include all items, such as: land acquisition and easements (the City will furnish estimated land acquisition costs), clearing and grading of land and demolition of such structures as may be present; construction of runways, taxiways and aprons; underground utilities; Terminal Building and facilities; fixed base operator installations; maintenance and safety buildings; hangars; fueling facilities; entrance and circulation roads; parking areas; industrial park facilities (if appropriate); necessary civil features. The estimate will also include allowances for engineering, architectural, legal and appraisal fees, and an allowance for unforeseen contingencies. B. Lease Review All existing leases with the airlines, fixed base operators, concessionaires and other aviation and non -aviation tenants of the Airport will be reviewed. If appropriate, recommendations will be made for revisions in terms or rates, such as would bring -those terms and rates into alignment with the terms and rates currently in effect at other airports comparable to Corpus Christi International. C. Estimates of Income and Operational and Maintenance Expenses To determine the economic self-sufficiency of Airport develop- ment, estimates will be prepared of operational and maintenance expenses and expected income from all sources, including aviation facilities revenue, non -aviation tenants revenue and local, state and federal financial assistance programs. These estimates will be prepared for the initial time period and the ensuing 5th, 10th and 20th year time periods. If pertinent, these estimates of income and expenses will be presented in a format which will allow comparison of the costs and revenues of the various cost and revenue centers of the Airport. Such a format will be possible, however, only if the Airport's past records of revenues and expenses have been kept in that format. D. Financial Feasibility The foregoing estimates of development cost, operational and maintenance expenses and income will be analyzed to determine the economic feasibility of implementing the recommended Airport development program in the development periods of interest. E. Financing Program Various methods of financing the recommended Airport expansion will be discussed, and a specific financing program will be presented. Page =15- RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES o PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas • The various sources of development funds, such as Federal and State Grants -in -Aid, revenue bonds, general obligation bonds, accumulated surpluses, revenue sharing funds, possible EDA funds and other non - Airport revenue sources, will be indicated. Recommendations will be made regarding the methods which would be appropriate for the City to utilize. F. Review with City and FAA The findings of this Phase IV of the Master Plan Study will be reviewed with City officials and Airport staff. Personnel of the FAA and other cognizant agencies, if any, would participate in the review as appropriate. A separate review with the latter agencies is not contemplated. PHASE V - FINAL ALP, REPORTS AND PRESENTATIONS A. Final Airport Layout Plan The Preliminary Airport Development Plan (PADP), presented to the public during Phase III of the Study, will be amended in accordance with the outcome of that presentation. Following concurrence by the City and the cognizant agencies, the amended PADP will_be drawn up in final form as the final Airport Layout Plan (ALP). The final ALP will be prepared in accordance with FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-4B, dated June 24, 1975. It will, comprise the following sheets: • Cover sheet indicating approvals • Layout plan drawing showing prominent Airport facil- ities, dimensional and azimuthal data, boundaries, approach and clear zone outlines, ground contours taken from existing topographic maps supplemented, as necessary, by contour and obstruction maps that the Consultant will obtain in the runway clear zones. • Land Use Plan for areas within the Airport boundary • Approach and clear zone layout drawing portraying, in plan view, the FAR Part 77 Imaginary Surfaces and the areas under them. • Drawing showing terrain profiles along FAR Part 77 approaches to the Airport runways and the locations of objects along the approaches that penetrate an imaginary glide slope of half the steepness of the actual glide slope appropriate to the Airport. The clear zone plan view and the approach profiles will be drawn to a scale 1" 200'. Obstructions will be shown in both views, numbered to correspond. • Page -16,- RALPH EURKE ASSOCIATES o PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas • Detailed plan drawing of the Terminal area showing location, configuration and layout of the Terminal Building and depicting, similarly, the other facil- ities of the area. C. Final Master Plan Report The final Master Plan Report will be prepared and processed in accordance with the following procedure. A draft Master Plan Report will first be prepared.

In the event the City exercises this prerogative, we are to be paid for all work accomplished to date of termination a fee to be determined on the per diem basis described below. Since the work required to prepare the total Study is somewhat iterative, the various Study phases are accomplished somewhat concurrently. Thus, it is impossible to identify for reimbursement in the event of early termination, a specific fee increment with a specific work phase already completed. That is, the completion of a phase will have involved work nominally identified with a later phase. Therefore, the appropriate compensation for all work performed to a given termination point can best be determined on the per diem basis, which takes into account only the applied effort but includes all of it. Per Diem Fee Computation Per diem fees will be computed by multiplying the payroll costs of personnel who would be engaged in the provision of authorized services by a factor two and one-half (2.5), adding, without markup, reimbursement of the amounts of such out-of-pocket expenses (e.g., travel, subsistence, long distance telephone, sub -consultant costs, printing) as would be incurred in provision of the services. Additional Services In the event a political controversy or other problem beyond the control of the Consultant develops over execution and/or approval of the proposed Master Plan Study updating (for example, a formal Public Hearing should prove to be required, acquisition of property interests for airport expansion becomes a controversial local issue, etc.), which results in the necessity of Consultant's furnishing services not contemplated by the Work Statement of this proposal, it is understood that compensation is to be paid for such Additional Services on the per diem basis described above. Page -20- RALPH BURKE ASSOCIATES O • PROPOSAL Corpus Christi International Airport Corpus Christi, Texas Should other services be requested by the City that are not contemplated in the scope established by the above Work Statement, those services, also, will be provided on the per diem basis. Further, inasmuch as the proposed Study is structured for maximum efficiency of performance, the later re -scheduling forward of work elements and meetings could result in additional travel and/or additional man hours of required effort. Thus, if after the Study has commenced, the City should request changes in the order of work element preparation or, especially, the Consultant's participation in meetings that are untimely from the point of view of basic schedule and readiness, such significant alterations in the work schedule will require compensation for the additional effort involved. Again, such compensation will be determined on the above per diem basis. In the event any services are requested that are either beyond the scope of the established Work Statement or are untimely, we will notify the City that such services will require additional compensation, and we will await the City's specific authorization before rendering the services.

Your selection and authorization to proceed are contingent upon the reception and acceptance by the City of a federal Master Planning Grant for the updating. Upon the City's acceptance of the Planning Grant, the appropriate official(s) will sign your proposal of March 2, 1979, thereby making it the Agreement between the City and your firm for the Master Plan Study updating. That signature will authorizeyouto proceed with the updating. We agree that we will pay to your firm for services rendered in the Master Plan Study a lump sum fee in the amount Ninety Four Thousand Six Hundred Dollars ($94,600). This fee amount is consistent with the scope of services that has been established as a result of negotiations between your firm and the City. Should the scope of services be significantly revised as a result of later negotiations with the FAA, then an agreed- upon fee amount, consistent with that revised scope, will stand in lieu of the amount herein stated. We understand that your firm accepts the following commitments and responsibilities, to be executed in a timely manner prior to formal Authorization to Proceed. • Review the proposed scope of work with the cognizant personnel of the FAA, making any necessary revisions to insure that the Master Plan Study would be updated in accordance with the requirements of the FAA Planning Grant Program. • Assist the City in the preparation of its application for a Planning Grant. Should it happen that the City does not receive a Planning Grant after having executed a complete application, no reimbursement of the expenses that your firm will have incurred in preparation of the application will be required or made. But, if the City should receive but not accept an offer of a federal grant for the Master Plan Study, thereby not proceeding with the Study, the City agrees that it will reimburse your firm for all services rendered in connection with preparation of the grant application, an amount to be determined on the following per diem basis. Page Two Per diem fees will be computed by multiplying the payroll costs of personnel who would be engaged in the provision of authorized services by a factor two and one-half (2.5), adding, without markup, reimbursement of the amounts of such out-of-pocket expenses (e.g., travel, subsistence, long distance telephone, printing) as would be incurred in provision of the services. The City also agrees that any other services furnished subsequent to final establishment of work scope, but apart from any actual work on the Study, will be subject to reimbursement on the per diem basis.
