Addifian to the Airport FY04 Capital Improvement Project
Background:
The Airport Commission and City Council approved a Capital Improvement Project
addition in July 2003 to include a structural assessment on the large Quonset Hanger and
old shop building built in 1952. The assessment was completed with 100% funding
through the State of Iowa Vertical Infrastructure Program.
Results from the structural assessment have upgraded our priority on two various
subsequent projects to rectify NEC Code Violations and to rehab and expand the aircraft
tail door opening on the hangar to safely accommodate large aircraft. Hangar heaters in
Don David's Flying service hangar have deteriorated and currently we are having
problems with replacement parts. Current IDOT Vertical Infrastructure funds may not be
used for heating replacement systems however; due to funds remaining from a prior
project that did include heating we are able to rectify Don David's Hangar with the IDOT
funds. After that particular grant is closed there will be no more funding for heating re-
habilitation. The heater would then have to be replaced with local funding.
