February 9, 2015 4 City Council Agenda Attachment 1 Briefing Memo Draft Ordinance 4. Airport Master Plan Update Resource(s): Jack Christine, Aviation Brent Cagle, Aviation Time: 20 minutes Synopsis . The Airport Master Plan Update was adopted in 1997. The Airport contracted with Landrum & Brown Aviation Consultants in December 2013 to simultaneously prepare Airfield and Terminal Capacity Enhancement Plans (ACEP/TCEP) to address forecasted demand over the next 20 years at CLT. Together these documents represent an update to the Airport’s Master Plan. Over the past year, a working group comprised of Airport staff, the Federal Aviation Administration, the airlines, and a consultant conducted a series of five stakeholder meetings to facilitate the design, analysis, and decision-making for the capacity study. The ACEP/TCEP will be released in April 2015 with the following recommendations: - Airfield enhancements to include a fourth parallel runway and additional taxiways to enhance safety and improve aircraft movement; and - Terminal enhancements designed to accommodate the forecasted demand of both domestic and international growth for the hub airline as well as other airlines, increasing the current gate count from 93 to 164. A key deliverable of the study is the update of the federally-mandated Airport Layout Plan (ALP). The ALP is a set of drawings that shows the near-term, intermediate, and long-term facilities for an airport. The ALP is a key component to the Airport’s master planning and federal funding processes. Future Action The presentation is for information only. 5.
