Anticipated Funding: People Mover Requirement (est.) $150 m Regional Transp. Council grant ($60 m) DART Contribution ($20 m) People Mover Net Requirement (est.) $ 70 m
LFMP $200 m FAA Grant Funding (est.) ($50 m) LFMP Net Requirement (est.) $150 m
Total Net Requirement (est.) $220 m
NOTE: Airfield Safety/Security CIP funded through Capital Improvement Fund and FAA grants
15 Capital Funding and Feasibility
Net Funding Requirement: $220 m
Sources of Funding: Bonded Debt Serviced by Airline Rates & Charges, annual PFC (Passenger Facility Charge) collections Accumulated PFC Revenues
Project Feasibility: Master planning effort will include consultation with Rates & Charges Study consultant to recommend financing strategy.
16 PFC Funding as Part of a Financing Strategy
Typical sources of airport capital funding and their uses: Airport operating reserves – use for any airport purpose. FAA AIP Entitlement grants – eligible public, non-revenue generating infrastructure. FAA AIP Discretionary grants – same as entitlements, but competitive and based on project merit and FAA priority. Revenue bonds – any specified capital improvement, preferably with a revenue stream to fund debt service. PFC funds – eligible projects, used on a “pay-as-you-go” basis (collections spent directly on capital projects) or “leveraged” where PFC revenue is used to pay debt service on bonds. Financing Strategy: Each of the 5 funding sources has its own set of restrictions and limitations. A financing strategy must match the funding source with the appropriate use of funds in order to optimize funding for the lowest project cost. The option of using PFC funds will enable the greatest flexibility in devising an optimal strategy.
17 PFC Funding and the Effect on FAA Entitlement Grants
PFCs can be approved at levels of $3.00 and $4.50 per enplaned passenger. The Bush Administration has proposed increasing the level to $6.00 in FY 2008.
FAA Entitlement Grants are reduced by 50% for $3.00 PFCs, and by 75% for $4.50 PFCs. The proposed $6.00 PFC would eliminate FAA Entitlement Grants, however, FAA Discretionary Grants would remain available.
18 Comparison of Annual Capital Funding Potential at various PFC Authorization Levels
PFC LEVEL ENPLANEMENT LEVEL ENPLANEMENT LEVEL 3 Million 4 Million
No PFC $0 $0 Entitlement Funds $3,015,000 $3,515,000 Total Funds $3,015,000 $3,515,000

Concept Development
Planning Costs:
Costs are very preliminary.
More accurate project costs to be determined during design development (Winter, 2009), based on provisions of Project Development Agreement, to be approved by City Council.
23 23 Implementation & Project Delivery
Implementation As stated on page 3, “the City and Southwest Airlines will cooperate to determine the best methods to design, fund and manage the project (5-Party Agreement).
A Project Development Agreement (PDA) between the City and Southwest will represent agreement on the best methods.
See outline of PDA, Appendix pages 33-36.
PDA to be proposed to City Council for approval.
Term Sheet to Council for approval June, 2008.
24 24 Implementation & Project Delivery
Schedule Efficiencies:
Schedule goal (page 7) is the date of full repeal – Oct, 2014. Terminal capacity needed for forecast passenger traffic
However, projected completion date under normal City development process – 2017.
Opportunity for Cost and Schedule Efficiencies: Significant project elements can be assigned in the Project Development Agreement to Southwest Airlines.
Creation of a Local Government Corporation (LGC) is a means provided by state statute, of assigning LFMP development to a third party. May be created to aid and act on behalf of the City to accomplish any governmental purpose of the City. LGC has power to contract and to issue debt to be secured by airlines. LGC to be proposed for City Council approval in June, 2008.
25 25 Implementation & Project Delivery
Local Government Corporation (LGC) Addresses Project Challenges:
Project Financing Vehicle for issuing bonds secured by airlines (rather than airport revenues).
Demanding schedule for 2014 completion Empowered by state to contract and assign project development to third party: Enables fast-track procurement and delivery methods; Preserves City Council approvals and governance.
Project cost containment Costs to be borne by airlines. Allows airline co-management of costs through negotiated PDA.
Project complexity Demolition of existing, and construction of new facilities while still in use. Maintaining growing operations of 3 airlines and 2 major concessionaires throughout project. Extensive construction phasing and tenant relocations.
Successfully used for recent City project. Mercantile/Forest City Project developed under an LGC. City has also financed other public projects managed by 3rd party entities: Performing Arts Center, American Airlines Center. 26 26 Recommendations Summary
Recommend the City Council approve the Terminal Area Redevelopment Program Study (TARPS) as the master plan for the Love Field Modernization Program (LFMP). Provides viable concepts which:
Comply with the 5-Party Agreement;

Passenger and Aircraft Traffic Forecasts 2006 Update of the 2001 Master Plan estimated the effects which might result from the proposed repeal of the Wright Amendment.
Data used as the basis for the TARPS forecast. FAA Terminal Area Forecast (TAF) for Love Field:
Standard forecasting model used to test validity of airport-specific forecast.
Results exceed the 2006 Update, but validates current TARPS forecast. TARPS forecast methodology:
Constraint – 20 Gates.
Constraint – Voluntary Curfew (17 hours of operation)
Variable – Aircraft size: assume 737-700, 137 seats. Note: American & Continental currently operate 50 seat Regional Jets. The forecast assumes greater demand for larger aircraft when all restrictions phase out in 2014.
Variable – Turns per Gate: 10 turns per gate (assumes 20-25 min ground time per turn – reasonable on consistent basis). 15 turns per gate (assumes 15 min ground time per turn – achievable but not consistently) 30 30 Master Plan Major Findings & Recommendations

Implementation Approach, Documents and Actions for the Love Field Modernization Program
Briefing to the City Council
Department of Aviation June 18, 2008
1 Purpose of Briefing
To review the proposed implementation and financing of the Love Field Modernization Program and seek City Council authorization to move forward on development.
2 2 Topics and Proposed Actions
Review the “Terminal Area Redevelopment Program Study” (TARPS), presented to the Council Transportation and Environment Committee 4/28. Proposed for adoption by the City Council as the Master Plan for the Love Field Modernization Program (LFMP).
Review the Implementation Strategy of creating a Local Government Corporation, for the purpose of developing and financing the LFMP. Proposed creation of a Local Government Corporation.
Review the need for an Inducement Resolution to enable the expenditure of funds with the intent of reimbursement from a future bond issue. Proposed approval of an Inducement Resolution.
Review a Project Development Agreement for the LFMP, to be negotiated based on the terms specified in a Term Sheet. Proposed approval of Term Sheet.
3 3 Background Review: 5-Party Agreement
Several Council Committees have been briefed over the past year on the 5-Party Agreement and what it means to Love Field. In summary, the key points are:
The terminal must be modified to allow for only 20 gates;
The City must invest at least $150 M and a max of $200 M to modernize Love Field; The $200 M cap can be exceeded if the City and Southwest agree.
The City and Southwest Airlines shall agree on the manner in which the Love Field Modernization Program will be developed;
Southwest and American airlines’ terminal leases will be extended to 2028.
4 4 Background Review: LFMP Master Plan
The Transportation & Environment Committee was briefed April 28, 2008 on the LFMP Master Plan, conducted under the Terminal Area Redevelopment Program Study (TARPS). In summary, the study:
Examined environmental issues and determined that no further action would be required. FAA agreed. Established criteria for the terminal facility and evaluated 3 conceptual options. They are: Option A – a minimalist approach, consisting of demolishing all concourse areas which can support in excess of 20 gates, and remodeling the remaining concourse and gate space;
Option B – includes demolishing all 3 existing concourses and replacing them with 2 concourses accommodating 20 gates;
Option C – best fits the criteria. It demolishes the 3 existing concourses and consolidates all 20 gates into one concourse in a “T” configuration. This provides the most efficient use of space, the greatest convenience and shortest walking distances for passengers and locates the concessions on one central area so all passengers have access to all concession offerings.
Option C was proposed to the Committee as the preferred option going forward.
More detail on the LFMP Master Plan and TARPS is contained in Appendix pages 28 to 33.
5 5 Option A
OPTION A

8 Issues Affecting Implementation
Cost: All 3 options exceed the $200 M spending cap in the 5-Party Agreement. The $571 M cost of the preferred Option C places it between the costs of the other options. Costs to be paid by airlines, primarily, Southwest. City and Southwest must be in agreement on the approach to the project. Comparison with other similar projects: Chicago Midway – 45 gates, parking structure, related infrastructure, initiated mid-1990s, total cost $1 billion. Houston Hobby – 20 gates in new central concourse, project started 1997, total cost $353 million.
Schedule: The goal of completing the project in time for the full phase-out of the Wright Amendment in 2014 leaves only 6 years to design and construct the improvements. Will require innovative approach to developing project in a streamlined manner.
Construction Phasing and Maintenance of Operations: The project will be constructed on the existing terminal site, requiring close coordination of relocations of airline and concession operations at various phases, and the routing of passenger flow around construction.
9 9 Implementation Strategy
Local Government Corporation (LGC) Created by City Council, Addresses Implementation Issues:
Project Financing Vehicle for issuing bonds secured by Southwest’s credit (instead of Airport’s).
Demanding schedule for 2014 completion Empowered by statute to contract and assign project development to Southwest: Enables fast-track procurement and delivery methods;
Project cost containment Allows airline management of costs with City budget approval and oversight.
Project complexity Demolition of existing, and construction of new facilities while still in use. Maintaining operations of 3 airlines and 2 major concessionaires during project.
Successfully used for recent City project. Mercantile/Forest City Project developed under an LGC. City has also financed other public projects managed by 3rd party entities: Performing Arts Center. 10 Implementation Strategy
Local Government Corporation (LGC)
City Council control: Bonds may not be issued without City Council approval;
Contracts to be executed in connection with sale of bonds must be included as part of approval of sale of bonds by City Council. Such contracts would include agreements among City, LGC, Trustee and Southwest regarding the handling of funds and the responsibilities and obligations of the parties pursuant to the bond issue.

12 12 Implementation Strategy
LGC Structure (Narrative): LGC issues bonds to finance LFMP improvements, pursuant to an Indenture of Trust with a corporate trustee. LGC enters into a Special Facility Lease Agreement (Facilities Agreement) with Southwest Airlines (SWA). Under terms of the Agreement, SWA pays all debt service on the bonds (Facilities Payments). LGC assigns SWA Facilities Payments to Trustee under the Indenture. LGC sells bonds, deposits proceeds in Project Fund, held and administered by Trustee. Proceeds are made available to SWA to finance construction costs through a requisition process set forth in the Facilities Agreement. City would agree under a separate agreement (City Agreement) to transfer PFC revenue to Trustee for eligible terminal projects. Under terms of City Agreement, City would also transfer “City Revenues” to SWA, which would include: (1) lease rentals received from SWA gates which are attributable to debt service SWA has already paid to Trustee; (2) lease rentals received from the non-SWA gates attributable to debt service SWA has already paid; (3) other revenues attributable to debt service, for which the City is responsible, including concession and City administrative space.

Airline Rates & Charges:
The City Council approved a rate model for airlines on June 25. Included in the Term Sheet for the Love Field Modernization Program.
Adjusts with changes in airport revenues and costs to ensure total revenues are sufficient to cover total costs (see model Appendix pg. 32).
Total Annual Costs include: Operating and maintenance Debt service on LFMP bonds Amortization of non-LFMP capital improvements funded by AVI Replenishment of reserves (outlined on pages 20 - 24)
How it Works: AVI Total Annual Cost (allocated to airline cost centers) - Non-Airline Revenues (from those cost centers) Airline Revenue Requirement (from landing fees & rentals) 6 6 Remedy: The Cost Recovery Model
Airline Rates & Charges:
Better balance of revenue sources (see pro forma, pages 27 - 29).
Matches revenue to expenses to reduce vulnerability to downturns.
Projected to generate approx $10 million net revenues annually for Capital Fund.
Caps the Capital Fund balance at $30 million, beginning FY 2015.
Model will be implemented with the phased opening of new space during development of the Love Field Modernization Program (est. 2012).
Interim rate increases effective 1/1/09 with annual incremental increases ramping up to model implementation.

Ground Transportation Fees
Terminal Concessions
9 9 Rates & Charges Study Recommendations
• Fuel Flowage Fees – Represents the General Aviation contribution to costs allocated to the Airfield Cost Center (in place of a landing fee).
– Study conclusion: • Fuel flow fee could increase from current rate of $.07 to $.08. – See Benchmark data, Appendix page 34 • Increase the annual fuel vendor permit fee from $100 to $1,000.
– Recommendations: • Other considerations: – Fee increased 75% in 2003, from $.04 to $.07. – Current high cost of fuel contributes to19% drop CYTD in GA operations. • Therefore, defer Fuel Flowage Fee increase until next rate evaluation. • Increase annual vendor permit fee to $1,000 each.

Special consideration for Executive Airport: The City of Dallas has lead several initiatives since completion of the Airport Master Plan Update in 2001 to develop the airport facilities, infrastructure and activity levels. These efforts have resulted in over $20 million in public and private improvements which have resulted in renewed growth in activity and service to the local and traveling public. Considering the recent success and future potential for continued development, staff recommends postponing any increase in rental rates for one year. 14 14 Rates & Charges Study Recommendations
• Lease Rental Rates (cont’d)
• Recommendations: • Love Field • Adopt Proposed Rates as Updated Prevailing Lease Rates.
• Executive Airport • Postpone rate adjustment and re-evaluate in one year.
• Effect of Implementing New Prevailing Rates: Existing leases – gradual, in accordance with lease language. New leases – immediate.
15 15 Rates & Charges Study Recommendations Parking Rates Current daily rates: Garage A - $10; Garage B - $7.
Benchmark rates are $19 “short term” and $8 “long term”. (See Appendix page 33)
Study recommends: Gradual increase over several years toward “market”.
Increase spread between Garages A & B to shift more use to B.
Recommendations: Passenger traffic projected to increase 50%, adding pressure on garage capacity. Rate increase will balance demand between the 2 garages and could defer the need for future expansion.
New daily rates: Garage A - $12; Garage B - $8. 16 16 Rates & Charges Study Recommendations Car Rental Concessions Study found that the business terms of the current Car Rental Concession agreements are reasonable, appropriate and reflect current airport industry standards and practices. Re-bidding the concessions is currently underway.
Ground Transportation Fees New Ground Transportation Fee Ordinance implemented Dec 2006.
Revenue per passenger is only 30% of Benchmark average (Append. page 33).
Recommendation: Increase Taxi trip fee from $1.00 to $2.00.
Replace current $2.00 trip fees for off-airport car rental and parking operators with agreements charging 8% of gross revenue derived from their airport business.
Maintain unchanged the Courtesy Vehicles $200 annual fee, $10 vehicle decal and $.75 - $1.25 trip fee.
17 17 Rates & Charges Study Recommendations Terminal Concessions Food & Beverage and News & Retail: Consultant observations – Rental structure is consistent with industry practices.
Gross revenues and rental revenues paid to City have increased with recent space increases and improvements.
Revenues are below benchmark due to lack of available new space.
Staff Recommendations: Space deficiencies (and therefore, revenue potential) to be remedied through LFMP development, which will triple the available concession space.
18 18 Rates & Charges Study Recommendations Terminal Concessions (Cont’d) Advertising: Rental structure is consistent with industry practices.
Revenues paid to City far exceed Benchmark average. Benchmark average - $.06 per passenger Love Field - $.21 per passenger (3.5 times the benchmark!) Effective rents paid – 74% at Love Field, 57% Benchmark avg.
Recommendations: Advertising Concession expected to continue outstanding results.
19 19 Rates & Charges Study Recommendations Reserve Funds
General Purposes: Ensure the Dallas Airport System ability to meet its obligations in an environment in which its sources of revenue can be disrupted by safety, security and economic impacts.
Increase balance sheet liquidity to enhanced bond ratings.

'Dallas, The City That Works Diverse, Vibrant And Progressive " Dallas Love Field People Mover Connector Feasibility Study Recommendations (Part 1 of 2) Briefing to the Transportation and Environment Committee
Department of Aviation September 22, 2008 Purpose
Review Part 1: Feasibility Study Findings, Recommendations.
Issues with other Capital Improvement Projects.
Next Steps. Part 2: Financial Analysis and Recommendations
2 Background
Historical Overview: DART published a 2005 report addressing service to Love Field from the new Green Line – “Dallas Love Field Transit Service Options Study” (amended in July 2007). Recommended a bus shuttle connection to Airline Terminal. Potential for higher capacity project in future.
City of Dallas determined a higher level of service could be achieved through installation of a People Mover Connector, to be financed with Passenger Facility Charge revenue.
Consultant contract awarded for People Mover Connector Feasibility Study on June 13, 2007 to Lea+Elliott, Inc.
3 Feasibility Study Outline

4 Feasibility Criteria
Performance Factors – Capacity, Speed, Expandability, Automation
Level of Service – Frequencies / Wait time, Safety, Reliability
Quality of Service – Seamless Connections, Appropriate Passenger Amenities, Airport Experience
Environmental Impacts – Acceptable Noise/Vibration Levels, Visually Acceptable
Cost Effectiveness – Capital, O&M, Integration of System with Terminal Facilities
5 Ridership & Demand
Ridership Requirements & Analysis: Two General Functions to be Served: Air Travelers & Employees utilizing DART Light Rail for regional transportation; Cost of fuel and growing popular concern for reducing “carbon footprint”.
Potentially relocated Airport Activity Centers. Increase the Terminal Area capacity to support passenger activities; Relieve Terminal Area traffic congestion (realize associated air quality benefit).
Three Groups of Users – Demand: Commuting Employees (demand – 418 daily riders) Air Travelers (demand – 1,230 daily riders) Southwest Airlines Employee Shuttle (demand – 500 daily riders) Total Demand Potential 2,150 daily riders (785,000/Yr)
Sources of Data: NCTCOG; DART; FAA; City of Dallas; Transportation Cooperative Research Program Report 62.

11 Tunneling Methods Assessment
Tunneling cost and applicability are affected by several factors:
Local geologic conditions (clay, sand, shale, water table); locations adjacent to existing structures and utilities sensitive to ground movements; Tunnels will pass under airport runways, taxiways and ramps.
The following 3 pages review the available methods.
Method, or combination of methods used, will be determined by the procurement process.
12 Tunneling Methods Assessment
Tunnel Boring Machines Can be used in difficult ground conditions, such as water-bearing sands and clays
13 Tunneling Methods Assessment
Sequential Excavation Method (SEM) Suitable for soft ground conditions and low overburden.
14 Tunneling Methods Assessment
Cut-and-Cover Construction
More disruptive than tunneling due to need for utility relocations and traffic routing.
15 Station Location & System Alignment
Station Location Determines System Alignment.
Station Location Objectives: Seamless Traveler Connection Visibility – Traveler Orientation & Wayfinding Cost to Develop Site
System Alignment Objectives: Shortest Length (Cost of Tunneling and System) Simplest Alignment (Curves add Cost & Operating Complexity)
16 Recommended Alignment System Length – 3,400 ft System Performance – one curve
17 Recommended Station Concept at DART Station Elevated, Bridging Denton Rd.
DART Trains Denton Dr. To Terminal
Legend APM Station
Tunnels 18 Recommended Station Concept at Terminal Building Enter near Center of Lobby Can be Constructed During LFMP
19 Procurement Approach
Two Separate Procurement Processes:
APM System Supplier: Performance Based Process to increase competition. Few Competitors within each Technology Type Therefore, Create Competition among the Various APM Technologies
Facilities & Tunnel Contractor(s): Conventional Procurement Methods (Design-Bid-Build, Design- Build, Construction Management At-Risk)
This approach used at 24 airport projects, including DFW Skylink
20 Planning Level Cost and Schedule Assessment
Planning Level Cost: Based on Consultant Team’s past experience with similar projects and current construction industry cost trends.
Includes assessment of: Facilities & Tunnel Construction, System Acquisition costs; Soft costs design, construction administration, construction management, geotechnical testing, LEED certification requirements, art program, commissioning, contingencies; Escalation rate – 8% Construction inflation, demand for materials, foreign exchange rates.
21 Planning Level Cost and Schedule Assessment (Cont’d)
Planning Level Cost Estimate (Capital): 2008 dollars $270,000,000 2010 dollars $330,000,000
5-Year Operating & Maintenance Cost Estimate APM System $20,000,000 Facilities $ 4,120,000 Total 5-yr budget $24,120,000 (average $4,824,000 annually)
Project Schedule: Overall duration – 72 months
22 Potential Funding Sources
2010 Capital Cost $330 M DART allocated funds $ 20 M RTC: TX Mobility Fund $ 40 M RTC: Congestion Mitigation $ 20 M Remaining Capital Cost $ 250 M
Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Revenue: At $4.50 beginning 2010, PFC revenue potential thru 2028 = $562 M
23 Project Feasibility
The determination of Project Feasibility is based on the following conditions:
Recommended system technology – Automated People Mover (APM);
Recommended system alignment – elevated station at DART end, and underground station entering Terminal in lobby area;
Recommended procurement process – performance based for APM system, and conventional procurement for Facilities & Tunnel construction.
Capital cost - $330,000,000 (2010)
Funding Sources and Potential: DART $ 20,000,000 Regional Transportation Commission $ 60,000,000 Passenger Facility Charge (2010-2028) $562,000,000 Total Potential $642,000,000
24 Project Feasibility (Cont’d)
The Study concludes that this set of conditions will achieve the Feasibility Criteria set out in Page 5 of: Performance; Level of Service; Quality of Service; Environmental Impacts; Cost Effectiveness.
Additional Benefits of the People Mover Connector: Will provide direct rail connection between DFW and Love Field
Fuel costs and environmental concern have resulted in record DART LTR use. Will translate into greater ridership than estimated in Study
New opportunities to relocate Terminal-area passenger services to relieve Terminal-area traffic congestion. For example, 138,000 annual shuttle bus trips in 2007 Relocation of services will enable re-designation of Airport land for aeronautical use.
25 Issues With Other Capital Improvement Projects
This Study concludes that the People Mover Connector is feasible and sufficient funding is available to finance it.
Other capital projects are planned or underway, which compete for funding: Love Field Modernization Program; Rolling Capital Improvement Program; Future Cedar Springs / Mockingbird Rd Intersection Improvements.
A financial strategy will be developed to determine the most efficient way to fund all capital improvements without compromising any of them.

Dallas Love Field People Mover Connector Financial Analysis & Recommendations (Part 2 of 2) Briefing to the Transportation and Environment Committee
Department of Aviation October 13, 2008
1 Purpose
Review September 22: Part 1, Feasibility Study Findings, Recommendations.
Today: Part 2: Financial Analysis and Recommendations
2 Part 1 Findings, Recommendations
• People Mover demand is based on the following: – Commuting Employees 418 daily riders – Air Travelers 1,230 daily riders – Southwest Airlines Employee Shuttle 500 daily riders – Total Demand Potential 2,148 daily riders
• Additional opportunities arising from installation of People Mover:
– Relocation of Car Rental Service Facilities from Terminal Area to a new Consolidated Car Rental Facility co-located with People Mover DART station.
– Employee parking could also be co-located.
– Co-locations estimated to increase daily ridership by 5,000, bringing total demand to 7,150 daily and about 2,000,000 annually.
3 Part 1 Findings, Recommendations (Cont’d)
• People Mover Planning Level Costs: – 2010 Capital $330,000,000 – 2010 Annual System O&M $ 4,000,000 – 2010 Annual Facilities O&M $ 824,000
• Project Schedule, Design to Commissioning – 72 months
• Funding Sources & Potential: – DART $ 20,000,000 – Regional Transportation Commission $ 60,000,000 – Passenger Facility Charge (2010-2028) $562,000,000 – Total Potential Funding $642,000,000
4 Part 1 Findings, Recommendations (Cont’d)
• The Study concluded the People Mover Project is Feasible: – Capital resources exceed Planning Level Costs; – The APM concept delivers an excellent Level of Service; – Recent trends of increased DART ridership; – Air quality improvements.
• The Study did not analyze all Dallas Airport System capital programs and develop a financial strategy to support all programs.
• The Airport Rates & Charges Study has developed financial strategies for all existing and potential development programs: –LFMP; – People Mover; – Rolling Capital Improvement Program.
5 Part 2 – Financial Analysis
• Critical Issue # 1: – City has committed to develop Love Field Modernization Program (LFMP) • Concept Option C, approved by City Council, and currently in Schematic Design • Cost-Recovery Airline Rate Model approved by City Council (adjusts rates to cover costs) • Preliminary Budget - $520 million • Preliminary Financial Plan – Southwest Funded $ 23 M – FAA Grant Funded $ 64 M – TSA Grant Funded $ 20 M – PFC Pay-Go Funded $ 61 M – AVI Funded $ 28 M – Bond Funded $324 M – Preliminary Budget $520 M
• Bond Debt Service Funding – Annual Requirement (2016) $28 M – Less annual PFC revenues pledged ($10 M) – Net to be recovered – Airline Rate Base $18 M
• Resulting Terminal Rental Rate (projected annual per square foot) - $49.
6 Part 2 – Financial Analysis
• Critical Issue # 2:
– The People Mover has no tenants and little revenue potential. • It’s costs must be paid by other sources: – DART, RTC and AVI contributions reduce net capital cost to = $243 M
– Debt Service requirement would approximate $20 million of the projected $20 – $25 million annual PFC revenue stream during FY 2015 – FY 2020 (at current federal PFC limit of $4.50). » Will remove $10 M PFC contribution from LFMP debt payment, thereby increasing airline square foot rental rate
– Operating and Maintenance Costs, estimated at $6 M by 2015. » Potential cost sharing with DART » Balance added to airline rate base
• Alternative approaches are necessary for a sound business case. 7 Part 2 – Financial Analysis
- Alternative approach to financing the People Mover •Shift capital cost of People Mover Terminal Station ($43 M), from People Mover project to LFMP, reducing the People Mover Net Capital Cost to about $200 M.
New Cost: New Cost: People Mover LFMP $200 M $43$43 MM $563 M •Retain integrity of LFMP Financing Plan by maintaining the $10 M PFC pledge to debt service.
•Annual People Mover Debt Service requirement estimated at $15M.
•These are planning estimates and cannot be substantiated until project design development is underway. 8 Part 2 – Financial Analysis
• Cost impacts: – Capital: Resulting Impact on LFMP Financing Plan ($43 M added to project) • Airline terminal rental rate (projected annual per square foot) increase from $49 to $80.
–O&M:Additional Impact: People Mover Operation & Maintenance Cost • Estimated $6 M annually by 2015
Cost impact to LFMP
LFMP LFMP with $43M LFMP + $43M Current APM Cost APM + O&M Bonded Debt $367M Capital $324M $367M Amount $6M O&M Terminal Rent $49 / SF $80 / SF $105 / SF per sq. ft.
9 Part 2 – Financial Analysis
• Summary: – A Strategy to Fund and Finance the LFMP and the People Mover, under these circumstances:
• Would consume nearly all PFC revenue for life of bonds;
• Would limit capital improvement capabilities of the Dallas Airport System to rehabilitation and replacement of equipment, facilities and infrastructure only, and no new development.
• Would place significant financial burden on airlines and other users of Love Field.
– Staff is pursuing lower cost alternatives.
10 Part 2 – Financial Analysis
• Other Considerations: – Terminal Area Access • Dependant on Cedar Springs Rd – emergency road closure would cut off access to terminal.
• Alternate means of access is desirable & prudent.
– DART Light Rail Connection • Intra-modal opportunities keep focus of alternate Terminal access point at DART Station.
• Bus Connection as an interim approach would preserve future potential of the People Mover recommended in Feasibility Study.
– Consolidated Car Rental Facility (CONRAC) • Development of a CONRAC in conjunction with DART Love Field Station brings 2 opportunities: – Create a new revenue stream and funding source to contribute to capital and O&M cost. – Create new aeronautical development opportunities on vacated land in Terminal Area.
• Additional Benefits: – Reduce traffic congestion and increase air quality by removing 138,000 shuttle bus trips.
11 Part 2 – Financial Analysis
• Recommendations: – Investigate alternative connection of Love Field Airline Terminal to DART Love Field Station.
– Investigate development of a Consolidated Car Rental Facility near the DART Love Field Station • Enhance future potential of viable and effective connector project. • Provide safety and air quality enhancements to the Terminal Area. • Introduce new aeronautical development opportunities. • Potential for co-locating employee parking to free up capacity in terminal area for increased public parking needs.
• Next Steps: – Committee will be updated in January

Briefing to the Transportation and Environment Committee
Department of Aviation October 27, 2008 Purpose
Review 5-Party Agreement terms pertaining to Lease:
Review “Amended & Restated Lease” Conversion of existing “Lease of Terminal Premises” to an “Airport Use & Lease Agreement”
Seek Committee support for approval by City Council Nov 10.
22 5-Party Agreement Review
• Agreement to repeal the Wright Amendment. – Executed June 2006.
• Obligations of the City: – Undertake Love Field Modernization Program (LFMP)
– City & Southwest Airlines to cooperate in developing LFMP. • TARPS / Concept Option “C” / LFMP Term Sheet.
– Costs of LFMP to be borne by airlines; • Rates & Charges Study provided “Cost-recovery Rate Model”.
– Airline leases to be amended for term extension to 2028;
3 Current Lease
• Rental rates based on cost of space in 50 year-old terminal facilities and adjacent aircraft apron only. • Average square foot rental rate approx $9.00
• Lease does not address use of the airfield, or obligations & mechanism to support its development. – Current Landing Fee is set by ordinance at $.55 per 1000 lbs landed weight
• All costs of Dallas Airport System are recovered by all revenue sources.
• Gates & adjacent aircraft ramp exclusively leased.
• Southwest, American and Continental all have essentially the same lease, with combinations of term and options to 2021.
4 Proposed Use & Lease Agreement
• Implements the business deal to achieve the 5-Party Agreement commitments.
– Expands scope of the lease of terminal space, to also include terms for the use of the Airport, including the airfield, aircraft parking ramp; • Incorporates Landing Fee & new Apron Fee in lease rate model.
– Incorporates new cost recovery rate model approved in the Term Sheet. Allocates Airport costs to Terminal, Apron, Airfield cost centers. • Airlines pay cost of LFMP thru allocations of cost to square foot rental rate. • Protects non-airline tenants from paying for LFMP.
– Develop guidelines for future capital improvements (CIP); • CIP funded in rate base. Airlines have approval rights for certain capital improvements affecting their rates. 5 Basic Provisions
• 20 year term, effective retroactive to 10/1/08.
• All gates leased on a “Preferential Use” basis, rather than exclusive.
• All baggage areas (outbound & inbound) leased as “common use”.
• Office, operations and ticket counter space leased as exclusive use.
• All space subject to “accommodation provisions” for new entrant airline access to terminal.
6 Common Lease Form
• Use & Lease Agreement negotiated primarily with Southwest – Highest market share at over 90% – Greatest number of gates – effective 2010, will occupy 16 of 20 gates – Responsible for greatest share of Rates & Charges revenue to City
• Consultation with American and Continental – Will have 90 days to accept or reject
• Alternative to Use & Lease Agreement – Any scheduled airline choosing to not sign agreement will pay Landing Fees set in ordinance – Section 5-31 of the Dallas City Code is proposed to be amended to increase Landing Fees at Love Field as indicated below. • Effective 12/1/08 – 9/30/09: $1.50 • Effective 10/1/09 – 9/30/10: $1.75 • Effective 10/1/10 – 9/30/11: $2.00 • Effective 10/1/11 and thereafter: 125% of the fee paid by airlines that have executed an Airport Use & Lease Agreement
7 Capital Funding
• Recognizes on-going capital needs of the Dallas Airport System. • Rate model recovers costs and also funds reserves and transfers to Capital Fund of approx $10 M annually. – Capital Fund capped at $30 M. Balances exceeding cap to be refunded to airlines.
– Exceptions to cap are for improvement projects associated with People Mover and Mockingbird-Cedar Springs Intersection until 2015, at which time, exception expires.
• Airlines have approval rights for any proposed capital improvement project which impacts the airline rate base, except those projects required for safety, security or federal mandate (Majority-in-Interest Clause).
8 Interim (Pre-LFMP) Rates
• FAA policy does not allow airports to charge airlines for capital improvements before they are placed into service. • Cost recovery rate model will take effect on Date of Beneficial Occupancy (DBO) of LFMP space (estimated 2011).
• Interim rate structure agreed to:
Terminal Building – Rates Eff. FY 2010 Landing Fees – Rates Eff. 10/1/08 Ticket Counter and Queuing $20.00 / SF FY 2009 $1.00 per 1,000 lbs. Gate Holdrooms $20.00 / SF FY 2010 $1.25 per 1,000 lbs. Offices / Ticket Offices / Bag Service Offices $15.00 / SF FY 2011 (through DBO) $1.50 per 1,000 lbs. Baggage Claim $15.00 / SF Bag Make-Up / Bag Screening $10.00 / SF Operations / Support / Restrooms $10.00 / SF Stairwells / Canopy $ 5.00 / SF
9 Phasing of LFMP Construction
• Changes to Leased Space during construction • Airline leased premises in existing facility defined in exhibits to lease by location, space type and square footage. Referred to as “Pre- LFMP Space”.
• Upon completion of LFMP phases, and relocation of airline operations to new space, “Pre-LFMP Space” lease exhibits will be replaced with “Post-LFMP Space” exhibits, reflecting changes in space location, type and square footage, for assessment of proper rental rates and amounts.
• During period of Interim Rental Rates, airline rentals will be adjusted for changes in square footage occupied during relocations and space changes related to LFMP construction.
10 Cost-Recovery Rates (Post-LFMP)
• Cost recovery rate model shown graphically next page
– Basic Concept: $ AVI annual budget, allocated to each cost center - $ other revenue generated in, or credited to cost center Net revenue requirement for cost center
Landing Fee = Airfield Cost Center revenue r’qmt / landed weights
Apron Fee per gate = Apron Cost Center revenue r’qmt / 20 gates
Terminal Rent = Terminal Cost Center revenue r’qmt / leased sq ft
11 Cost Recovery Rate Model

Airline MII Purview of Future CIP Projects: No Yes, subject to exclusions in 5-Party Contract No 1212 Mid-Year Rate Adjustments
• Any time during a Fiscal Year that the City projects variances of 10% or more in estimates of the following, used to calculate rates:
– total costs of the Terminal Building, Airfield or Apron cost centers, OR – the aggregate Total Landed Weight of all airlines
• Rates may be adjusted up or down for the balance of that Fiscal Year, to ensure that Airport revenues will be adequate to recover the estimated total costs of the affected cost center.
13 Year-End Adjustments
• City furnishes Airlines with accounting of – Actual costs/expenses – Actual revenues & credits – Actual enplaned passengers – Actual landed weights – Recalculation of Rates & Charges based on actual information
• If Airlines overpaid, City shall refund Airline in lump sum for excess payments within 60 days of determination.
• If Airlines underpaid, City shall invoice Airlines for deficiency, payable by Airlines within 60 days of invoice.
14 Summary, Recommendations and Next Steps
• The proposed Airport Use & Lease Agreement will: – Implement the business deal to achieve the commitments of the 5-Party Agreement – Support the financing at Airline cost, of the LFMP – Ensure that the Dallas Airport System operates with “net revenues” – Provide substantial contributions annually to the AVI Capital Fund
• Recommend the City Council: – Approve the proposed Airport Use & Lease Agreement for all scheduled airlines operating at Love Field. – Approve an increase in the landing fee for commercial aircraft found in Section 5-31 of the Dallas City Code
• Next Step : November 10 City Council Agenda for approval 15 Memorandum

Dallas Love Field People Mover Connector Additional Study of Alternatives
Briefing to the Joint Meeting of the Transportation and Environment Committee and Dallas Area Rapid Transit Board
Department of Aviation January 26, 2009
1 Purpose of Briefing
To share with DART Board Members the status of People Mover options and analysis previously briefed to the Transportation and Environment Committee on December 8, 2008.
That briefing reviewed alternatives for connecting the DART Love Field Station with the Love Field Airline Terminal, with the following objectives: Lower cost than 9/22/08 recommendation Comparable level of service
NOTE: Strategies to locate car rental and parking facilities are not related to the evaluation of connector alternatives, and will be the subject of a future briefing. 2 Background Review
2005 – DART determined the Green Line would not connect to Love Field. Committee requested staff to study the feasibility of an automated people mover, providing a seamless, high level of service.
9/22/08 – Staff briefed the Committee as follows: Presented a people mover concept with a seamless, high level of service PFC funding is estimated to be sufficient to fund the $330M, 2010 cost. Financial impact on other capital projects to be reported next briefing.
10/13/08 – Staff briefed Committee on financial impact: Consumes all PFCs and doubles airline rental rate for new terminal. Recommended further study of cost-effective alternatives
3 Approach to Alternatives Analysis
9 Alternatives Considered
5 bus alternatives Advanced bus technologies Inwood Station Bus Shuttle Inwood Station Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Love Field Station Bus Shuttle (public roadways) Love Field Station Bus Shuttle (on-airport roadway)
Automated People Mover (APM) alternatives Re-alignment around end of runway 3 modifications to original Automated People Mover concept
4 Approach to Alternatives Analysis (cont’d)
Advanced Bus Technologies Eliminated from consideration New, unproven technologies
5 Approach to Alternatives Analysis (cont’d)
Airfield Constraints
Runway 13R-31L runs parallel to Denton Dr.
Space between runway and Denton Dr. not sufficient for additional surface road on airport
Eliminates on-airport surface route for either bus or realigned APM
6 Approach to Alternatives Analysis (cont’d)
Measuring Level of Service for Remaining 6
Headway (wait time plus transit time) Objective measure – distance & speed
Passenger convenience and ease of use Subjective measure – view video of bus and APM service
7 APM vs. Bus Boarding/Deboarding Comparison

9 Inwood Station BRT
Elevated BRT Lanes obstruct approach to primary runway Alignment shown is the optimized BRT route from the Inwood Station Significant real estate acquisition impacts (approximately 20 acres) Not recommended by DART. Love Field station deemed to be better bus option than Inwood Station
10 Love Field Station Bus Shuttle on Public Roadways
Subject to traffic signals and congestion Estimated capital cost of $1.8 M (2010 $) 11 Automated People Mover Alternatives
3 modifications to Sept 22 recommendations
Cost basis revised based on recent bid experience Economic conditions have lowered construction prices DART currently using 5% escalation (8% used Sept 22)
Design basis reviewed for possible cost savings Station width & length reduced System and/or tunnel quantity reductions
12 Sept 22 Recommendation APM Alignment
13 Phased Approach to Recommended APM Alternative
14 Single Lane Shuttle - Build Both Tunnels
Expandable to Recommended APM Alternative in future Wait time of 4.4 minutes Ride time of 1.7 minutes Availability greater than 99% Would require bus backup Lower initial cost of $ 265 M (2010 $)
15 Single Lane Bypassing Shuttle in Single Tunnel
Would provide equivalent capacity and trip time of Recommended APM Alternative Wait time of 2.4 minutes Ride time of 1.9 minutes Availability greater than 99% Would require bus backup If cable system, dual drive equipment would increase redundancy Lower initial cost and lower ultimate cost of $ 250 M (2010 $)
16 Single Lane Shuttle in Single Tunnel
Expandable to Recommended APM Alternative in future Remobilization required for future tunnel work Wait time of 4.4 minutes Ride time of 1.7 minutes Availability greater than 99% Would require bus backup Significantly lower initial cost of $225 M (2010 $)

18 Preferred Alternative and Costs
Love Field Station Bus Shuttle is clearly the lowest cost, however, it cannot provide the level of service needed for success
The Alternatives Matrix shows the best alternative to be the “Single Lane/Tunnel Bypassing Shuttle”
Planning cost is $25 M higher (11%) than the lowest cost alternative for APM (Single Lane/Tunnel, Single Shuttle)
Headway performance (wait time + travel time) is almost 1/3 better (70%), at 4.3 min vs. 6.1 min for lowest cost alternative
Planning cost of $250 M is $80 M reduction from Sept 22 recommendation of $330 M. (all 2010 $)
Annual O&M costs will remain similar as Sept 22, approx $5 M. 19 Financial Analysis
A complete financial analysis cannot be made for the APM until the LFMP budget is finalized in the Design Development phase (approx Oct 2009) Need to consider the financial requirements of both projects together
It is estimated that PFC resources will be available to fund the Preferred Alternative Will take away resources from LFMP and require a re-programming effort to finance both programs
APM cost estimates, based on more advanced design (Schematic Design), are needed in order to make informed decision
20 Recommendation
Begin schematic design effort to maintain schedule and refine our estimates.
21 Next Steps
Bring supplemental agreement for schematic design scope of work and fee to City Council for approval in Apr 2009
Brief Committee Nov 2009 on project budget, schedule, financing

Love Field Concession Plan
Briefing to Transportation & Environment Committee
Department of Aviation April 13, 2009
1 Objectives
• Concession Plan for the LFMP (Love Field Modernization Program) – 2 in terminal – Food & Beverage and Retail
• Impacts during Construction Period – Transition from Existing Concessions to New – Parking Concession
• Recommendations and Next Steps
2 Executive Summary
• The Love Field Modernization Program will double the amount of concession space in the terminal, and afford the opportunity to provide exceptional customer service through high quality Retail and Food & Beverage concession concepts obtained through a competitive process.
• The incumbent concessionaires have served Love Field well and earned a place in the new LFMP facility. The City has committed to allocating comparable space in the new facility as the incumbents have today. The remainder of the new space will be awarded through an RFP process, which will result in a balanced 2-concessionaire business model for each, Retail and Food & Beverage. The incumbents are encouraged to compete in the RFP process, and they will have an inherent advantage by virtue of their existing operations.
• The business model for our Concession Plan of 2 balanced and complementary concessionaires each for Food & Beverage and Retail, will result in the highest level of customer service and revenue generation. However, while the possibility exists that the incumbents will also win the RFP space, their proposals must provide results which are equal in customer service and revenue as the 2-concessionaire model.
• The business terms and rent will be set at industry standards, rather than at premium rates, to ensure a competitive response to the RFP. Increased rental revenue will result from increased sales in a competitive concession environment, thereby avoiding the operator’s need to cut costs elsewhere to compensate for higher rents, with unintended impacts on customer service. 3 Evolution of Concession Plan
•Past- High Level Planning Phase – TARPS (Apr 2008) – Calculated size of Program (SF) based on planning standards – TARPS findings – 72,000 SF revenue and support space
•Present– Schematic Design Phase – “Option C” – Adoption of “Option C” defined the terminal configuration – Schematic Design Phase (Nov 2008) • Established the available space & locations • Enabled development of Concession Plan
• Future – Design Development Phase (Nov 2009) – Will provide detail plans for marketing Concession Plan RFP
4 Purpose of Concession Plan
• Defines… – Space requirements – Business model – Category & concept mix – Locations & adjacencies of concessions
• …Based on evaluation of – Enplaned passenger projections – Characteristics of service (O&D, connecting) – Configuration of terminal facility
5 Evaluation Factors
• Enplaned Passenger & Revenue Space Projections – Opening Year (2015) – 5.26 M enpl. pass. = 47,584 SF – Projected 2020 – 6.34 M enpl. pass. = 57,302 SF – Projected 2025 – 7.34 M enpl. pass. = 66,429 SF
• Characteristics of Service – 70% Origination & Destination, 30% Connecting – Passenger dwell time in terminal
• Configuration of Terminal “Option C” – All gates in a single concourse – All passengers flow through central “Concession Village” area – Facilitates clustering of additional concession units outside of “Village”
6 The LFMP Concession Plan
• Space Allocation in Schematic Design – 51,238 SF – Nearly double today’s 27,000 SF
– Accommodates “Opening Year” (2015) passenger projection
– Expansion capability to 2020 achieved by adding Kiosk Units
– 2025 pass. projection will require facility expansion to increase concession space to 66,429 SF • Expansion programming to be based on future projection updates • Plan accommodates more certain near-term needs, and avoids expensive overbuilding for less certain long-term projections
7 The LFMP Concession Plan
• Business Model – 2 Concession Packages each, for Food & Beverage and Retail • Incumbent Package, approx equal to current space • RFP Package for remainder of overall Concession Plan space
– Allocation of Space • Food & Beverage – 35,595 SF = 20,588 (Incumbent) + 15,007 (RFP) • Retail – 15,643 SF = 7,183 (Incumbent) + 8,460 (RFP)
8 The LFMP Concession Plan
• Category & Concept Mix – General Principles • Both Concession Packages balanced with complementary, rather than competing concepts • Popular national brands, mixed with Dallas’s local “flavor”
– Categories
Food & Beverage Retail Bar/Full Service Restaurant News Food Court News/Convenience Quick Service Restaurant Specialty Walk Away
9 The LFMP Concession Plan
• Locations & Adjacencies of Concessions – Exposure to passenger traffic – Convenience to Customer – Clustering complementary units • Coffee units (F&B) adjacent to book stores (Retail)

14 Concession Plan Implementation
• Amend Incumbent Concessionaire’s current contracts – Extend term to expire upon occupancy of new space • Negotiate contracts for new space – In accordance with minimum business terms • Develop RFP documents for remaining new space – Upon completion of Design Development Phase (Nov 2009) – Advertise Jan 2010 – Proposals due Apr 2010 • Award new contracts for all 4 packages (Incumbent & RFP) – Aug 2010 • Shell space available for Concessionaire finish out – Mar 2011 • New Concourse partially open with 12 gates – Nov 2011
15 Impacts During Construction
16 Impacts During Construction
• In-Terminal Concessions – Major consideration in Schematic Design Phase – Food & Beverage and Retail concession phasing incorporated in construction phases
• Parking Concession – Garage not part of LFMP, however, roadway impacts significant – Current contract expires 2009 – Current Concessionaire is experienced and competent in Love Field operations – 5-year extension to 2014 would enable effective management of impact to vehicle & pedestrian traffic
17 Recommendations & Next Steps • Recommendations – Approve the LFMP Concession Plan
– Authorize the City Manager to negotiate amendments to current Concession Contracts • Dallas Love Field Joint Venture Ltd. for Food & Beverage • Hudson Retail – Dallas JV for Retail
– Authorize the City Manager to negotiate an amendment to current Parking Concession Contract with Parking Corp of America, extending its term 5 years to August, 2014
• Next Steps – All 3 contract amendments to City Council May 2009

17 Issue: Advertising Concession
• Question: Why isn’t a 2-Operator Model being proposed for the Advertising Concession?
• Response – LFMP timing & disruption – impacts Retail and Food & Beverage • Both 15-year agreements expire 2011 during LFMP construction phasing and require new agreements • Retail and Food & Beverage concessions require high capital investment and disruptive relocation. Need 10-year terms to amortize capital

– Advertising RFP prior to current lease expiration
18 Recommendations & Next Steps
• Recommendations – Approve the LFMP Concession Plan
– Authorize the City Manager to negotiate amendments to current Concession Contracts • Dallas Love Field Joint Venture Ltd. for Food & Beverage • Hudson Retail – Dallas JV for Retail
– Authorize the City Manager to negotiate an amendment to current Parking Concession Contract with Parking Corp of America, extending its term 5 years to August, 2014
