The airport does not budget for this expense as a line item but absorbs the costs in our advertising budget. Given the deficit in the airport budget and the information provided by our current pianning process it seems prudent to discuss the costs and benefits of the Air Fair and either find a way to reduce the cost or consider scaling back or eliminating the project. www.ci.kenai.ak.us.

' V ItJ .~, ~. ena ~ Airport Manager's Monthly Report 7anuary 12, 2006 Municipal Airport Budget: We are busy following Larry's instructions and formulating a budget. Some of the improvements planned for next year are a remodel of at least one of the public restrooms in the Terminal, acquisition of an automatic payment terminal for parking, and roofing repairs for the terminal building. Security Services: The RFP for Airport Security Guard Service is curre~tly advertised and bid packets are available in the Airport Manager's Office. The pre-bid meeting and tour is January 17 and proposals are due Jan~ary 23. Council will receive administrations recommendation on February 1. AWG: In addition at budget, the entire crew is busy preparing for Arctic Winter Games. The office staff is coordinati~g with numerous air carriers to process charter fiights for the athletes. The operations staff and airport fire are making preparations to turn the Operations facility into a US Customs processing center and accommodate AWG processing of participants. The addition of a new driveway at the Ops Facility is complete and the Finance Department has received reimbursement for this work. Projects: The environmental work for the runway project is nearing completion and we are on track to start work next summer. The airport, City Engineer, and Wince-Corthell- Bryson are hard at work finalizing plans and coordinating funding with the FAA for construction on the main runway and float pond. This is a substantial project estimated to cost over 10 million and take two construction seasons to complete. Volcano Preparedness: We continue to work with the Borough, City, and tenants to ensure everyone is informed and prepared for potential impacts. The airport is an essential asset for emergency landings, medivacs and observation flights. We plan to remain open even in the event that individual carriers suspend operations.
