    MMM Group Limited Lethbridge Airport Financial Assessment and Governance Study Update 2016 February 2017 | 1216101-000 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At the request of Lethbridge County and the City of Lethbridge, MMM Group Limited (a WSP Company) completed a 5-year update to the 2011 Financial Assessment and Governance Strategy for Lethbridge Airport (the ‘2011 Study’). The update reflects current market conditions and is intended to assist with future airport governance-related strategic decisions and to aid the Airport Committee in gaining a better understanding of current and future airport activity. The update incorporates changes in economic conditions and air transport industry trends since 2011, including the entry of WestJet’s Encore 78-Seat Q400 into Canada’s regional air service market. The approach followed in updating the 2011 Study is presented below. MMM was tasked with updating current market conditions, economics and air transport industry trends through the following tasks: ► Baseline airport conditions were revisited through Stakeholder consultation interviews and web- based surveys. ► An environmental context review was completed to update the economic outlook of the country and took into consideration current government policy initiatives, funding sources, and trends in the air transport industry as they relate to Lethbridge. ► A new baseline activity forecast was prepared following a review and update of previous assumptions. Forecasts of General Aviation activity were updated to reflect current conditions and anticipated growth. ► A technical due diligence of airfield infrastructure and operations was completed including a review of infrastructure assets and any specific constraints to airport development. Requirements for facility improvements to support current and future operations was projected.
