Background: See attached Master Plan Update. Analysis: As with any other master plan, funds will need to be budgeted to meet the match requirements for the FAA and KDOT Aviation in order to complete the updated project list. Financial Considerations: As with any other Capital Improvement Plan, funds will need to be budgeted in the year the project is set to be completed. If funds are not available, the given project will need to be moved out another year until funds are available. Legal Considerations: N/A Recommendation/Action: Staff recommends moving this on to the December 18, 2023 Study Session if more discussion is needed or placing this on the December 20, 2023 regular City Commission meeting for formal approval. Attachments: 2018 Adopted Airport Master Plan Update 12.11.23 Agenda Pkt Page #32 CITY OF OTTAWA, KANSAS PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Brian Silcott – City Manager FROM: Michael Haeffele - Director of Public Works SUBJECT: 2018 Adopted Airport Master Plan Update DATE: December 11, 2023 ___________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction: As the sponsors to a General Aviation (GA) airport that receives federal funding for projects, every ten years GA airports must submit a master plan that outlines potential projects that will qualify for federal funding. The last update to the Airport Master Plan was adopted on October 3, 2018. Updates to the master plan are completed annually starting with the Airport Board recommendation to the City Commission for approval. Once the City Commission approves the updated plan, it is submitted to the FAA for final approval. Some of the projects included in the master plan include taxiway lighting, rehabilitate taxiway, runway 18 obstruction removal, construct connecting taxiway, upgrade AWOS, and construct wind-cone with segmented circle. In the master plan, there are chapters on Facility Requirements and Development Alternatives. The purpose of the facility requirements was to look at current and future levels of airfield capacity while identifying the requirements to meet projected demand. The facility requirements were based on the type of aircraft currently using the airport and projected types of aircraft to use the airport. The purpose of the chapter on development alternatives was to look at the different ways development at the airport can be accomplished. The alternatives were to show the FAA that we explored different options prior to selecting the preferred alternative. Both sections, facility requirements and development alternatives, were built to support the short, intermediate, and long-term project lists. Summary of Airport Facility Requirements: Facility requirements outlined in the 2018 adopted master plan include paving the crosswind runway, extending the primary runway to 5,500 feet (an addition of 700 feet), constructing a maintenance hangar and storage hangars, installation of Medium Intensity Taxiway Lights (MITL), upgrading Runway 17/35 with 4 light PAPI system, installing 2 light PAPI system on Runway 13/31, perimeter fencing, fiber extension for internet, Jet-A Fuel tank and pump. Current status of the Facility Requirements • Paving crosswind runway – not started • Extending runway 17/35 to 5,500 feet – not started • Construct maintenance hangar – not started • Construct storage hangar - not started • Install MITL on taxiway – completed 2021 • Upgrade PAPI lights on Runway 17/35 – not started • Install 2 light PAPI system on Runway 13/31 – not started • Perimeter fencing – not started • Fiber extension for internet – not started • Install Jet-A fuel tank (6,000) and pump – completed in 2018 12.11.23 Agenda Pkt Page #33 The diagram above shows the ultimate layout plan with all the anticipated hangar space and new connecting taxiway. The diagram above shows the existing cross wind (grass) runway 13/31 and to the south is the proposed cross wind runway with taxiway. 12.11.23 Agenda Pkt Page #34 Back to Agenda The drawing above shows the ultimate layout plan for the runway and crosswind runway. As you can see in the drawing, the runway is extended to the south and the crosswind runway is shown as being paved with a paved taxiway. Paving of the crosswind runway, extension of Runway 17/35, and all hangar construction have not been completed due to lack of participation of FAA and these projects were not included in the short-term project list (Table 6B, pg. 4). Reasons for not completing above projects has been FAA funding, the cost for the taxiway lights was almost $300,000 for construction and nearly $100,000 for engineering services. This drained our entitlement funding to the point of needing to let it build back up before we could start another project. Entitlement funding is federal dollars that are set aside for the Ottawa Municipal Airport to complete approved projects. These funds equate to $150,000 per year and can build up to $600,000 total, if not used at that point the funds are lost to the city and are redistributed to other cities with approved projects. The City of Ottawa has never had to forfeit these dollars because we do a good job of managing the entitlement funding and keeping up with projects listed out in the master plan. Currently the City of Ottawa is paying debt off from the construction of a nested 10-unit T-hangar that was completed in 2015. It has been my understanding for the last 8 years that the city did not want to incur more debt to build hangar space until the current T-hangars were paid off or paid down to the point that we could combine the debt without having an outlandish payment. Below are tables 6B from the Airport Master Plan that show the short term, intermediate term, and long- term improvement projects that the city has been working on. 12.11.23 Agenda Pkt Page #35 Table 6B Capital Improvement Plan - Ottawa Municipal Airport Notes: Funding cost share formula with projects involving FAA funding is 90% FAA and 10% Local Short Term Horizen (0-5 Years) - 2017-2022 Project Description Project Total FAA Eligible KDOT Eligible Local Share Medium Intensity Taxiway Lights (MITLS): MITLS for 1 $444,400 $399,960 $399,960 $44,440 Runway 18/36 Taxiway Rehabilitate Taxiway: Seal cracks, repair pavement and 2 $196,982 $177,284 $177,284 $9,849 joints of existing concrete.

Since the time of the completion of the master plan, KDOT has completed another pavement assessment and deemed the taxiway no longer eligible for rehabilitation and replacement was recommended. We are currently in the design phase of the taxiway reconstruction and final design should be submitted to the FAA, KDOT and the city for review and approval very soon. With that said, the design phase is approximately 50% complete.

The ideal situation with the master plan is that this list, or parts thereof, will be the starting point for the next master plan that will need to be completed in 2028. Recommended Development Alternatives: • Runway Alternatives, extend the runway approximately 1,000 ft. – not started due to cost and FAA not ready to fund and is on the long-term list of projects • Crosswind Runway Alternatives, move runway, extend to 3,400 ft, and add full length parallel taxiway – not started, this is a long-term project that was not meant to be completed during this master plan’s 10-year life span • Landslide Alternatives – no additional hangar space has been built due to lack of funding from the FAA and we are still paying the debt on the existing 10-unit T-hangar and is on the intermediate term list of projects Challenges and Obstacles: The biggest challenge or obstacle the airport faces is the lack of funding, whether it is on the city side or the FAA side. As major projects are finished, it takes four to six years to build the entitlement funding back up to a point that another project can be started. As funding builds within our entitlement funding, we are completing projects that are outlined in the master plan. When comparing the facility requirements and development alternatives to Table 6B on pages 4 and 5, we have only had the obstacle of having enough funding. While also comparing them, it is also easy to 12.11.23 Agenda Pkt Page #37 Back to Agenda understand that we are on track with the plan as the approved project list for the short-term projects is near completion. Next Steps and Future Plans: The next step for the current project, Reconstruct Parallel Taxiway, is to get the final design approved by the FAA, KDOT, and the City of Ottawa. Once the plans are approved, we can apply for funding for Federal Fiscal Year 2025, with construction to begin in late 2025 or 2026. Once this plan is completed, we can reevaluate the intermediate term projects and decide which projects are priority and begin working on that list as entitlement funding becomes available. Conclusion: In conclusion, you can see that the Facility Requirements and Recommended Development Alternatives support the short term, intermediate and long-term project lists. It may not appear that we have completed much from the facility requirements and development alternatives sections of the master plan, however; we have completed some major projects such as the relocation of the connecting taxiway, segmented circle and wind cone, installation of MITL on the taxiway, and mitigated the runway 17 obstacle (power lines) on Rock Creek Road. All these projects were on the short-term project list. Although not on the list and not federally or state funded, the bottom portion of metal siding on the office/lounge area was replaced in 2022 due to rust. Looking back over the last five to eight years, the airport has had some major improvements and mitigated a major safety issue of power lines on Rock Creek Road. From looking at the short, intermediate, and long-term project lists, the airport is on track and keeping up with the master plan as funding allows. Respectfully submitted, Michael W.

City of Ottawa City Commission Study Session Back to Agenda December 11, 2023 TO: Mayor and City Commission SUBJECT: Removal of No-Parking in the 500 Block of S. Poplar INITIATED BY: Lucas Neece, Director of Neighborhood Services AGENDA: Items for Presentation & Discussion Recommendation: Place proposed updated parking ordinance amending Section 12-317 of Municipal Code on the December 20, 2023 regular City Commission meeting agenda. Background: Parking is restricted in the 500 block of S. Poplar dating back to the former use of the building on the east side of the block as an elementary school. The building is now used by Grace Community Fellowship, which has different parking needs from an elementary school. I was approached by the pastor of the church about their need for additional parking. Analysis: This change to parking on S. Poplar would help meet the needs of the church for parking during Sunday services without burdening the City, and importantly, without converting any grass areas to pavement, which would negatively impact stormwater and several quality of life indicators, including air quality and open green space. Financial Considerations: There is no direct financial cost to the City. Legal Considerations: Ordinance has been reviewed by City Attorney Blaine Finch. Approve as to form. Recommendation/Actions: Place an updated parking ordinance on the next City Commission meeting agenda.

City of Ottawa Back to Agenda City Commission Study Session December 11, 2023 SUBJECT: 2024 Cereal Malt Beverage Licenses INITIATED BY: City Clerk AGENDA: Items for Presentation & Discussion Recommendations: It is recommended, with consensus from the Governing Body, to place the 2024 Cereal Malt Beverage Licenses on the Next Regular Meeting Agenda, December 20, 2023 for consideration of approval. Background: CMB is defined in K.S.A. 41-2701 and amendments thereto, encompassing beer containing not more than 6% alcohol by volume when sold by a retailer licensed under the Kansas Cereal Malt Beverage Act. There are two types of CMB licenses: • An Enhanced Cereal Malt Beverage license permits the sale of enhanced cereal malt beverages in original and unopened containers, not for consumption on the licensed premises. • An Enhanced Cereal Malt Beverage license for the sale of any CMB for use or consumption on the licensed premises and not for resale in any form. Analysis: The list of applications for Enhanced Cereal Malt Beverage (CMB) Licenses for the 2024 calendar year is provided. These applications have been thoroughly reviewed and approved by the Police Department and the City Attorney, with no grounds for denial. Upon approval, a report and appropriate fees will be submitted to the Kansas Department of Revenue. A State CMB stamp, crucial for validating the license, is affixed to each CMB license. The City Clerk collects the CMB Stamp and license fee at the time of application. The City of Ottawa, approved through the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI), utilized free record checks for cereal malt beverage licensing purposes during the 2024 application process. For Consumption on the Premises: (Renewals) • John Duncan, Pizza Time Pub LLC: 208 S Main Street • Juana and Richard Uht, Pizza Village, Inc.: 330 S Main Street • Samuel Pacheco II, Maria’s Mexican: 314 S Main Street • Riley Browning, Browning Barbering: 230 ½ S.
