Ready, City Manager By: Department of Aviation SUMMARY This action addresses the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) requirements for the preparation and submittal of a Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) application to partially fund the construction of the City Council approved Palm Springs International Airport (PSP) Master Plan Ticketing Remodel Project and other Airport Improvement Program projects; to retire all existing PFC Bond-backed debt; and reimburse the Airport Fund balance for expenses associated with previous FAA projects. RECOMMENDATION: 1) Authorize the preparation and submittal of a PFC application in accordance with FAA regulations and within the feasibility analysis range to fund, in part: 1)the City Council approved Airport Master Plan Ticketing Renovation Project and programmed FAA Airport Improvement Program (AIP) projects over the next 5 years; 2) to retire all existing PFC Bond debt in connection with the funding of new AIP projects; and 3) reimburse the Airport Fund for the local share of the cost of capital projects previously funded with FAA grants; and 2) Authorize the City Manager to execute all FAA required documents. STAFF ANALYSIS: On October 21, 2015, the City Council held a public hearing and adopted Resolution No. 23908 approving the Master Plan Update for the Palm Springs International Airport (the "Master Plan"). The Master Plan identified a Recommended Alternative that included the following elements: Terminal Proposed Improvements • Expand terminal building 60 feet north (no change to south facade that is designated as Class 1 historic site); ITEM NO. -5 ProgramPSP ' s Original PFC PSP Airport was one of the first airport's in the country to implement the FAA PFC program and use it for various FAA authorized airport capital improvements including the Bono Concourse.

Landside Proposed Improvements • Reconfigure existing Ready/Return car rental lot to accommodate a Quick Turn Around (QTA) facility and structured parking and ready/return; • Reconfigure and expand parking areas along Kirk Douglas Way. A copy of the October 21, 2015, staff report is included as Attachment 1. The Terminal proposed improvements are estimated to cost $21-$22 Million, and will be funded through AIP grant funds and capital funds generated by PFCs. The Quick Turn Around (QTA)facility and structured parking for car rentals was estimated to cost $24-$25 Million, and will be funded through capital funds generated by Customer Facility Charges (CFCs). In order to increase the authorized expenditure of eligible capital projects to be funded through PFCs, it was necessary to analyze the feasibility of this proposed method of financing. On December 7, 2016, the City Council approved a professional services contract with Ricondo & Associates (R&A) to provide the City with financial and bond consulting services. Subsequently, R&A has completed its analysis and is recommending the City Council authorize staff to proceed with the application process with the FAA, to authorize additional bond capacity through an extension of PFCs levied at PSP sufficient to finance construction of the various AIP projects. PSP Airport's History with Passenger Facility Charges PFCs were authorized by Congress in 1990 as an instrument for airports to fund FAA- approved projects that meet one or more of the following five objectives: 1. Preserve or Enhance Safety; 2. Preserve or Enhance Security; 3. Preserve or Enhance Capacity; 4. Furnish the opportunity to enhance competition between or among air carriers; 5. Mitigate noise impacts resulting from aircraft operations. PFCs have resulted in over $50 billion in airport capital investments since their implementation in 1990, funding construction of runways and terminal development at airports around the country. 02 City Council Staff Report May 17, 2017— Page 3 Palm Springs International Airport Passenger Facility Charge Application In 1992, the City of Palm Springs was an early applicant to the FAA to receive authorization to levy PFCs at PSP for needed capital projects. Formal FAA authorization was received on June 25, 1992, to begin collection of a $3.00 per enplaned passenger fee that was used to support bond financing for construction of various capital projects, including extension of runways and the Bono Concourse. The PFC levied at PSP was later increased to $4.50 with enactment of AIR-21 by Congress in 2000. New PFC Funding Plan A single new series of bonds secured by the PFCs levied at PSP would be used to redeem the outstanding principal of existing bonds (currently estimated at $11.5 Million), and provide new capital to complete the Terminal Proposed Improvements and future AIP projects. Ricondo & Associates has been working with the City's longstanding financial consultant, Harrell & Company Advisors, to develop a financial analysis, a project funding plan, and estimated bond debt capacity that could be supported by PFC revenues. Another benefit of the new PFC will be to reimburse the Airport Fund for past FAA grant projects local share expenditures totaling $4.5 million. This is permissible in the PFC regulations with the new project application. These additional funds in the Airport Fund will then be used to pay for capital expenditures that are not eligible to be funded with PFCs associated with the Ticketing Renovation Project including: airline relocation during construction, build-out of the permanent airline offices, storage areas, and other miscellaneous expenses not eligible to be paid by PFC's. The PFC application will contain sixteen total projects, to include reimbursement of the local share of twelve already completed AIP projects, the ticket wing project, two future anticipated FAA eligible projects (acquisition of 2 Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting vehicles and the design of the baggage claim area improvement project), and the reimbursement of the new PFC project development costs. The Airport Commission's Finance Committee reviewed the program and the full Commission voted unanimously in favor of proceeding with the new PFC application. Timing of the PFC Process The PFC Application approval process will commence upon City Council authorization, and is anticipated to be completed by December 2017; a tentative schedule identifying the PFC application process is included as Attachment 2. Once the PFC receives the approval of the FAA, the PFC Bonds would be issued in early 2018, to meet the funding needs of the 2018 construction season. Based on a debt capacity analysis prepared by Ricondo & Associates, it is projected that up to $29,000,000 in funding will be available for construction of the Terminal Proposed Improvements. 03 City Council Staff Report May 17, 2017— Page 4 Palm Springs International Airport Passenger Facility Charge Application ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Section 21084 of the California Public Resources Code requires Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). The Master Plan Update for the Palm Springs International Airport ("Master Plan") is considered a "Project", and in accordance with the CEQA Guidelines, the City acting as "Lead Agency' pursuant to CEQA, previously completed an environmental analysis of the potential impacts resulting from implementation of the Master Plan. A Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration ("MND") was previously filed, and on October 21, 2015, the City Council held a public hearing, and independently reviewed and considered the information contained in the MIND prior to its review and approval of the Master Plan, and adopted Resolution No. 23908, adopting and ordering the filing of a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Master Plan. A copy of Resolution No. 23908 is included as Attachment 3. FISCAL IMPACT: Because an FAA-approved PFC program is reliant on the amount of passenger activity at PSP, careful analysis was given in forecasting future PFC revenues. The chart below presents the projected enplaned passenger levels and the ensuing anticipated PFC revenues for the next five years at PSP: Budget Year Enplaned Passengers PFC Revenue 2017-18 1,022,040 $4,038,080 2018-19 1,042,481 $4,118,842 2019-20 1 ,063,330 $4,201,218 2020-21 1 ,084,597 $4,285,243 2021-22 1 ,106,289 $4,370,948 PFC revenues will be obligated to bond payments through June 2040, and any excess revenues would be committed to reducing the outstanding principal, similar to the structure of the outstanding PFC Bonds, or used for future pay-as-you-go projects. The PFC application will include a request for funding the cost of the projects and redemption of the existing PFC debt, as well as financing and bond administration costs. PSP currently imposes a $4.50 per passenger ticket PFC levy and this new application does not increase the current levy of $4.50 — which is the maximum allowed by FAA regulations. However, the PFC application will allow an extension of the time of which PFCs can be levied, to June 2040, in order to finance the proposed AIP projects. The PFC levy is collected by the airlines at the time an airline ticket is purchased, and then reimbursed to the City on a monthly basis, net of an administrative fee of $0.11 per enplaned passenger. 04 City Council Staff Report May 17, 2017—Page 5 Palm Springs International Airport Passenger Facility Charge Application SUBMITTED: Marcus L.

STAFF ANALYSIS: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) mandates that airports receiving Airport Improvement Program Grant funding maintain an Airport Master Plan with the appropriate environmental analysis and clearance in order to be eligible for funding of related future capital projects. As taken directly from the FAA Regulatory Guidance AC No. 150/5070-6B: "An airport master plan is a comprehensive study of an airport and usually describes the short-, medium-, and long-term development plans to meet future aviation demand... The goal of a master plan is to provide the framework needed to guide future airport development that will cost-effectively satisfy aviation demand..." Consistent with the Federal Aviation Administration's guidance, the Airport Master Plan Update was prepared by a qualified airport planning firm: HNTB Corporation, under the approval and funding of the FAA Western Region Airport District Office. The elements of the plan are comprehensive and include essentially six major areas of emphasis: ✓ Inventory of Existing Conditions ✓ Aviation Activity Forecasts ✓ Facility Requirements ✓ Master Plan Alternatives ✓ Alternatives Evaluation ✓ Recommendations and Implementation In addition to using these core guidelines established by the Federal Aviation Administration, the following City Ordinance was also utilized as guidance for the plan: PALM SPRINGS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AIRPORT ORDINANCE (ORD, 1693 § 2, (PART), 2006) • Plan, Manage, Operate, Finance, and Develop the Airport in a manner consistent with the adopted goals and policies of the City Council; • Provide the residents of the city of Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley with access to the nation's aviation system; • Preserve and enhance the City's status as a premier tourist destination; 08 City Council Staff Report October 21, 2015—Page 3 Airport Master Plan Mitigated Negative Declaration • Ensure the Airport's long term financial health; • Protect and promote the health, safety, security, and general welfare of the public consistent with all applicable Regulatory Measures; • Encourage the development and operation of General Aviation businesses and the provision of quality aviation products, services, and facilities to the public at the Airport; and • Ensure that the Airport is operated for the use and benefit of the public and made available to all types, kinds, and classes of aeronautical activity on fair and reasonable terms and without unjust discrimination. This current Master Plan Update was initiated through a City Council approved FAA grant and then prepared by HNTB Corporation, a consultant and scope of work that was authorized by the FAA in 2011 . Since this time, the ensuing environmental review (CEQA) Initial Study process has been completed as required prior to the City Council formally adopting the plan. Along with the Master Plan adoption being considered today, the action here includes the adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MIND) associated with the CEQA Initial Study process. A copy of the MND was made available to the public with notice published on March 20, 2014, in the local newspaper, and a full copy for public review at the Palm Springs Library and also at the Department of Planning Services. Other public meeting opportunities have included the Riverside Airport Land Use Commission meeting on May 8, 2014, and the Airport Commission meeting in Council Chambers on April 16, 2014. Additionally, a special Airport Commission Meeting was held in the City Council Chambers on September 30, 2015, for a final review of the Master Plan and Environmental Review prior to this submission to the City Council. Moreover, working through the ONE-PS neighborhood involvement organization, invitations were provided to abutting airport neighborhoods. MASTER PLAN UPDATE— PROCESS AND FINDINGS: The Master Plan process facilitates the FAA's goal of "providing the framework needed to guide future airport development that will cost-effectively satisfy aviation demand, while considering potential environmental and socioeconomic impacts." The process identified a series of goals and objectives aligned with existing City of Palm Springs policy. An FAA-approved 20-year aviation activity forecast was prepared early in the process to project future passenger enplanements and total airport operations. The PSP aviation activity forecast indicates the potential for growth at PSP in the long term over the next 20 years. Total domestic and international enplanements are forecast to increase by an average annual 3.1 percent. This forecast is used to identify critical facility requirements that will be necessary to address passenger demand. 09 City Council Staff Report October 21, 2015—Page 4 Airport Master Plan Mitigated Negative Declaration Facility requirements were prepared for all functional airport components (airside, terminal, landside, general aviation, support and maintenance.) Improvements are identified as required in the terminal baggage claim and baggage transfer areas due to peak passenger loads and growing congestion. The facility analysis highlighted that accommodating PSP growth requires key terminal and landside improvements, particularly in these areas of baggage claim and luggage transfer, ticketing lobby circulation, rental car vehicle pickup lots, car rental customer service areas, and rental car service areas. The Facility Requirements identified that the Airport's airfield has adequate size and capacity to serve forecast operations beyond 2028 and therefore no runway, taxiway, or apron expansion is necessary. As part of the Master Plan process, one alternative was developed that provides a plan for near-term improvements at PSP while two alternatives were developed that provide plans for long-term improvements at PSP. The Alternatives Analysis in the Master Plan Update included a concept refinement process, which involved key airport tenants and stakeholders. The near-term plan was developed to address the near-term constraints and functional deficiencies with rental car facilities and the terminal processor in a financially prudent manner, while the long-term development alternatives meet aviation activity forecast demand through 2028. The alternatives were evaluated based on criteria developed during the goals and objectives phase of the Master Plan, subjective ratings, cost estimates, and financial feasibility. An outcome of the master planning process is the recommendation of an Airport development plan. The preferred master plan alternative will address predefined goals and objectives, the aviation activity forecast demand, and the identified facility requirements. The alternatives were presented to the nineteen-member Airport Commission and unanimously approved. The recommendation was to proceed with the environmental phase analysis. The project elements from the Immediate Action Plan were depicted on an Airport Layout Plan (ALP) approved by the FAA. The City Council was presented with the No Action (No Build), Immediate Action Plan, Expand in Place, and New Processor Alternatives on November 4, 2014. During the environmental review, changing economic conditions and the public comment(review process, including comments and direction provided by City Council, led to revisions of various aspects of the near-term Recommended Alternative. The Master Plan Update has been amended to reflect these changes. The revised Master Plan Update Recommended Alternative is presented below and described in an addendum chapter in the Master Plan Update: 10 "�t '>.. i✓� Sd u � day m_a , � .•,....�., � ....rw.,.,., - r—•�- HeCOffifl"entled A.FelnaliJe rwn s""S Palm SOti-.gs lnrelndMMI artoat h rtnw n.r _ _ nrr.aw. 0 d•.•••+� WSW Plan w c 0 Din UO< Y1 City Council Staff Report October 21, 2015—Page 6 Airport Master Plan Mitigated Negative Declaration ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DETERMINATION: The proposed Airport Master Plan Update and the associated improvements were deemed a "Project" under the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act and the Environmental Initial Study was prepared for the project. The Initial Study was mailed to State and Local Agencies and interested parties for review and comments in March 2014. It was determined in the Initial Study that with the incorporation of the mitigation measures, the proposed project will not result in a significant impact to the environment. The CEQA Initial Study has been revised to reflect the City Council updated Recommended Alternative. Consistent with the initial determination, it was subsequently determined in the revised Initial Study, that with the incorporation of mitigation measures, the proposed project will not result in a significant impact to the environment. Revisions to mitigation measures were focused on the cultural resources section in response to public and City Council comments resulting in a modification to the Master Plan. Pursuant to Section 15064.5 "Determining the Significance of Impacts on Historical and Unique Archeological Resources", the main terminal of the Palm Springs International Airport is a historic resource under CEQA because it is listed in the local register of historic resources. With the revisions in the Recommended Alternative and mitigation measures included in the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration, the project will not have an adverse impact on the airport and in particular to the main terminal or other historic resources or elements of the airport. The facade of the main terminal was originally identified to be subject to a ticketing wing widening. However, based on direction received from Council, this plan was removed from the program and the fagade will not be disrupted in any manner. Although the Master Plan Update does not change airfield facilities or include projects that enhance the airport's capacity to accommodate aircraft, at the City Council's request, the CEQA study does include an analysis of existing and future noise exposure, known as NEMs (Noise Exposure Maps). The updated noise contours include a detailed analysis of the existing and forecast fleet mix, including military aircraft. The existing and forecast noise contours remain primarily over airport property or compatible land uses (commercial, industrial, etc.). The residential areas that are impacted by the noise contours were part of the Airport's previous noise mitigation (sound insulation) program. Prior to program closeout in 2004, all property owners were offered participation in the program. The NEM was conducted in full accordance with the FAA regulatory methodology. On Wednesday September 30, 2015, the Airport Commission held a Special Meeting in the Council Chambers and email notices of the meeting were sent out to the ONE-PS neighborhood organization email list on file with the office of Neighborhood Services. Approximately twenty citizens were in attendance at the meeting and the Airport Commission voted unanimously in favor of recommending moving forward with adoption of the program and related CEQA study. 12 City Council Staff Report October 21, 2015—Page 7 Airport Master Plan Mitigated Negative Declaration FISCAL IMPACT: When looking at the identified recommended capital improvements, they can be segregated into two areas of fiscal sourcing. One source is consisting of those elements within the terminal that are eligible for funding by the Federal Aviation Administration, the same source that has funded many other PSP Airport improvements in the past. Because Palm Springs International Airport is part of the National Airport System Plan and a fully certified Airline Airport in good standing, the terminal improvements identified in the Recommended Alternative are within the eligibility parameters of this funding. The other landside improvements associated with the car rental facilities are eligible for funding under California's regulated Customer Facility Charge (CFC) program, which the Airport has previously been approved for and collecting. The balance in this fund is over $10,000,000. Based on this current balance, rate of collections, and forecast of activity, the CFC program will support the future project. Although subject to final design and bidding requirements, an order of magnitude cost estimate for the next five year Airport Master Plan capital costs are as follows: • Terminal Ticketing Area $21-22 million • Rental Car Expansion/Structure $24-25 million Thomas Nolan, A.A.E.
