ADDITIONAL WATER SERVICE - SOUTHERLY TERMINAL ACCESS ROADWAY
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the acquisition of additional water
service as part of City Project #2002-20, the Southerly Terminal Access Roadway
Security Reconfiguration, from Desert Water Agency in the amount of$44,480, subject
to the approval of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
SUMMARY:
This action would acquire additional irrigation and domestic water service for the
Southerly Terminal Access Roadway Security Reconfiguration. This additional water
service is 100% funded by a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
BACKGROUND:
In response to the events of September 11`h, and the subsequent security regulations
mandated by the federal government, a blast analysis of the main passenger terminal
at the Airport was completed. The blast analysis, which, due to the extreme
confidentiality of the information contained in the report,was shared with the City Council
in Closed Session, identified several mitigation measures which would improve the level
of blast protection for the Airport.
In response to two specific federal security requirements, the 300 ft rule and inspection
of vehicles entering the secured area of the Airport, staff worked with the Transportation
Security Administration (TSA) and developed a centralized inspection facility. This
inspection facility and associated modifications to the Airport's loop roadway system,will
allow for inspections of vehicles as they desire to approach the main passenger terminal
as well as those vehicles who have a need to access the secured area of the Airport.
In developing the design for this project, progress meetings were held with the Airport
Commission and the City Council. Based on direction from the Council, a sub-committee
was established to participate in the design of this project and provide input throughout
the process. This sub-committee consisted of the Airport Commission Operations Sub-
Committee, two (2) representatives from the Planning Commission and one (1) City
Council member. This sub-committee proved invaluable in moving the design along
quickly and being able to address the numerous design elements and user concerns.
Due to the extensive landscaping, much of which serves as security barriers and the
inspection facility, additional water service is required. This additional water service will
be incorporated into the existing water service loop for the Airport. In addition to the
extra requirements of this project, the overall domestic and irrigation water servcie for
the Airport will be expanded.
