The Budget is the culmination of a process that evaluates the needs and obligations of the Department, particularly as they affect operations and Capital Projects. The Budget also takes into account the requirements of the Amended Trust Agreement governing the Outstanding Aviation Revenue Bonds and its obligations under state and federal laws. The budget process is deliberative and focused on accomplishing the strategic goals of the Department and the County for the Airport System, which consists of the principal airport, Miami International Airport (MIA or the Airport), three general aviation airports, one decommissioned general aviation airport, and one airport used primarily for flight training purposes. Due to the current worldwide pandemic and its significant negative effect on the aviation industry, the Department decreased its FY 2021 operating expense budget by 4.0%. MDAD is working with its main customers, MIA’s air carriers, to keep the airline cost per enplaned passenger (CEP), the principal measure of the cost of doing business at an airport, reasonable during these unprecedented times. The FY 2020 CEP was $18.92 with the FY 2021 CEP increasing to $24.81 or 31.1%. Without MDAD taking the following measures with the operating budget, the increase would have been dramatically higher: • Reduction of the debt service amount included in the airline rate base by $19.5 million by using money set-aside in the Improvement Fund that could be used to offset future airline rates and charges. • Reduction of the debt service amount included in the airline rate base by $28 million due to a significant increase in the amount of Passenger Facility Charge revenue used to pay debt service. • Reduction of the operating expense budget by 4.0% primarily due
