MEETING OF MAY 20, 2025
CITY COUNCIL MEMO
TO: Mayor Rawn and City Council
THRU: Keith Macedo, Interim Chief of Staff
FROM: Jared Rabren, Airport Director
SUBJECT: PAVEMENT CRACK REPAIR (GRANT APPLICATION):
RECOMMENDATION:
2025-572
The Aviation Division requests approval to apply for an Arkansas Division of Aeronautics (ADA) grant to fund
90% of project costs for a proposed pavement crack seal and remarking project at Fayetteville — Drake Field.
BACKGROUND:
The east general aviation apron pavements provide access to the T-hangar facilities located at the northeast
corner of airport. The 30-plus year old pavements are generally performing adequately; however, low- to
moderate severity cracks have developed throughout the apron. More severe cracks have started to develop at
the far eastern edge of the apron. This project will seal low- to moderate severity cracks and repair high
severity cracks to extend the life of the apron pavements, delaying the need for most costly pavement
reconstruction. This project will also address pavement marking deficiencies noted during the airports most
recent FAA Part 139 inspection completed in March 2025.
DISCUSSION:
This project is included in the Airport's Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Upon receipt of an ADA Grant Offer,
the Aviation Division will seek approval from Council to execute the grant offer and execute a Task Order with
Garver, LLC to provide design and construction phase services for the project. The ADA grant will cover 90%
of project costs, with the remainder to be funded by the City
Below is a summary of the anticipated project costs and funding breakdown for the project.
Design and Construction Phase Services: $29,000.00 ADA: $200,000.00
Construction (Estimated): $195,000.00 City: $24,000.00
TOTAL: $224,000.00 TOTAL: $224,000.00
Future Task Order with Garver, LLC pending receipt of ADA Grant Offer.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
No staff or budget impacts at this time. After receipt of a grant offer, the Aviation Division will seek approval
from Council to execute a design services Task Order with Garver, LLC, and process a budget adjustment.

Re: Fayetteville — Drake Field
FYV Pavement Crack Repair
Application for Airport Aid (ADA 90-10 Grant)
Dear Mr. Chism:
The City of Fayetteville appreciates the continued partnership of the Arkansas Department of Aeronautics
in improving Fayetteville- Drake Field. In continuation of this partnership, we are pleased to submit to you
this enclosed application for state airport aid.
This project will primarily consist of sealing pavement cracks and remarking the east general aviation apron
at Fayetteville -Drake Field. The 30-plus year old pavements are generally performing adequately; however,
low- to moderate severity cracks have developed throughout the apron. High severity cracks have also
developed at the far eastern edge of the apron (easternmost 60 ft of the apron). The open cracks allow
water to penetrate the pavement system which is expected to compromise the subgrade and reduce
pavement life. This project will seal low- to moderate severity cracks and repair high severity cracks to
extend the life of the apron pavements. Localized repair of failed crack sealant along the longitudinal
centerline of Taxiways A, Taxiway B, and Taxiway C is also proposed.
We respectfully request consideration of this matching grant for the amount of $200,000.00 on the
upcoming agenda. We greatly appreciate your consideration of this grant.
Please call me or Kyle Bennett with Garver if you have any questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Mr. Jared Rabren
Airport Director
