REGULAR AGENDA
1) Discussion and possible recommendation on the YCAA Yuma International Airport Master Plan.
Mr. Chris Hacker, of Mead & Hunt presented the proposed Airport Master Plan to the Committee for their consideration and evaluation. Mr. Hacker began by explaining how the Airport is required by the FAA to establish and maintain an Airport Master Plan (AMP) that carefully considers the inventory of infrastructures that exists at the airport, the nature of operational activity and the investments necessary to meet the projected activity over the next twenty years. He further explained how the project began in August of 2019 and has included the participation of the community, our aviation partners at MCAS, our regulatory agencies such as the FAA and ADOT, as well as a variety of interested parties such as our tenants and customers.
During Mr. Hackers presentation, each element of the Airport Master Plan was described in some detail and included a robust discussion by those in attendance in all areas of the plan’s future development.
Ms. Torres asked if the Airport ever considered vacating the current property due to MCAS Yuma, how feasible would that be. Ms. Brown explained that the YCAA wants to do what it can to protect this side of the airfield, however if the YCAA ever wanted to relocate it would be possible. This would require the YCAA to have runways, taxiways, facilities and an Air Traffic Control Tower as well as the required support services such as aircraft firefighting, rescue, and environmental protection. The existing tenants and service providers would also have to vacate and relocate. This would be a challenge. Committee Chairman Jones did concur with the information and did not see that being an option.
After additional discussion that followed regarding the information and how the strategic planning committee and the YCAA uses this document, it was the consensus of the Committee to recommend that the YCAA Board of Directors accept and adopt the proposed Airport Master Plan as presented.
CALL TO THE PUBLIC
