Horizon Issues

· At Spinks: Beginning construction of the West Side Box Hangar project, beginning construction of the
Airfield Lighting and Pavement Rehabilitation project, and beginning design and construction of the East
Side T-Hangar project.
· At Alliance: Establishment of signatory and non-signatory landing rates, finalized Air Traffic Control Tower
leasing rate with the FAA as well as the City of Fort Worth and Alliance Airport Management Agreement,
updated agreements with Amazon Prime Air and FedEx Express, begin design and construction of new
Gulfstream Aerospace service center and begin construction of Taxiway Papa extension.

New airport businesses and infrastructure are also enhanced by continuous focus in generating Federal and State
funding, which is needed to maximize capital investment at all three airports. The City of Fort Worth is well
positioned for available funding provided that the State of Texas is prioritized by the FAA for receiving assistance.
Historically, Texas has not received an adequate share of funding based on capital improvements needs and the
number of Texas airports within the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems. However, with optimal focus on
communication and partnerships with all interested stakeholders, the Aviation Department continually seeks to
promote a safe, efficient and economical transportation system that aligns to meet the demands of the aviation
industry as well as the City of Fort Worth community.
