Information

Referral History:

The previous Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) apparatus at the Byron Airport was stored in one of the County owned aircraft storage hangars. The replacement apparatus is too large to fit into the hangar and the Airport was going to use a portion of the 505 Eagle Court maintenance facility for storing the apparatus. However, a business expressed interest in that facility sot he Airport would like to erect a 50' by 50' storage facility properly equipped to house the ARFF apparatus in addition to consolidating all other airport equipment at Byron Airport. This would also allow the rental of additional aircraft facilities generating additional revenue.

Referral Update:

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

Review and recommend allocation of approximately $105,000 from the Mariposa Community Benefit fund to consider the purchase of a modular Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting/maintenance storage building at Byron Airport. Airport staff recommends approval of the use of the Mariposa Community Benefit Fund to purchase and erect a modular ARFF/maintenance storage building.

Fiscal Impact (if any):

Allowing the use of the Mariposa Community Benefit Fund monies will reduce the impact of the cost of an ARFF/maintenance storage building to the Airport Enterprise Fund's regular budget. It will also facilitate increased revenue by the rental of aircraft facilities.
