DS-2 24-1886 Resolution to Approve a Professional Services Agreement between the City and C&S Engineers, Inc. for Engineering Services for the Safety Extension of Runway 6/24 at the Ann Arbor Municipal Airport ($618,700.00)
I strongly support this resolution to approve engineering services for the safety extension of runway 6/24 at the Ann Arbor Municipal Airport. As a hangar tenant and aircraft owner at the Ann Arbor airport I believe it is prudent for Ann Arbor City Council to approve engineering planning for this project to enhance the safety and utility of the primary runway, which has been in the same configuration since it was originally paved in 1958. With completion of the Environmental Assessment (EA) Study and recent Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) in accordance with State and Federal Law, the process started with the 2008 Airport Layout Plan and initial 2010 EA Study can finally move forward to detailed planning. My personal experience as a pilot, a flight instructor, and a former aircraft mishap investigator lead me to support the runway 6/24 safety extension project. I hope Ann Arbor City Council will do the same. Thank you for your consideration.
