Lead Department Department of Aviation Prior Council Action: None For More Information: Please direct questions to Ghizlane Badawi, Chief Executive Officer at Ghizlane.Badawi@flyaustin.com <mailto:Ghizlane.Badawi@flyaustin.com>. Council Committee, Boards and Commission Action: To be reviewed by the Airport Advisory Commission on May 8, 2024. Additional Backup Information: As the Airport Expansion and Development Program (AEDP) continues, the Department will rely on the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to provide certain services beyond the agency’s normal operating duties at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Federal law mandates the reimbursement of costs associated with these additional services. Through multiple project-specific Reimbursable Agreements with the FAA, the Department will fund additional required FAA services to include: construction oversight responsibilities, site visits, plans review, and Resident Engineer and other engineering services. The FAA may also provide additional materials, supplies, and other equipment as necessary. A Reimbursable Agreement provides necessary resources and ensures FAA involvement during all phases of the AEDP. This item authorizes funding under the agreements through May 2029.
