A Resolution of the City of Gainesville, Florida, accepting FAA AIP Grant No. 3-12-0028-041-2018 from the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, and authorizing execution by the Mayor and the Clerk of the Commission on behalf of the City of Gainesville; and providing an immediate effective date.

The City Commission adopt the resolution and authorize the Mayor and City Attorney to execute and the Clerk of the Commission to certify the grant agreement.

explanation

The Gainesville-Alachua County Regional Airport Authority (GACRAA) anticipates an offer from the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for AIP Grant No. 3-12-0028-041-2018 in an amount up to $647,514.00 for Phase I construction of terminal improvements to install underground utilities at the Gainesville Regional Airport.

Because the City of Gainesville retains title to the land upon which Gainesville Regional Airport operates, the City of Gainesville, in addition to GACRAA, must formally accept all federal grant offers.  Accordingly, GACRAA on June 28, 2018, adopted Resolution No. 18-010, which accepted and authorized execution of the anticipated grant offer.
