Dear Mayor Doerfler:
RE: TAC Project No. 834-11
Georgetown Municipal Airport
In response to your letter of November 12, 1982, to Mr. Clay Wilkins
concerning the City's proposal to delay the grant for.the Runway 17/35
overlay project until September of 1983, this agency has no objection to
such a delay.
Because of our closed asphalt season during the fall/winter months, we
would prefer that the engineering plans be prepared and bids taken in
order that the actual construction would commence by early September,
1983. Otherwise, the project would not be initiated before the spring
of 1984. Please, advise if such a schedule presents problems for the
City of Georgetown.
We note that the delay of this grant does present a problem in that when
the current lighting project is underway, the edges of the 100' wide
center section of the runway must be striped to delineate that the outer
25' paved sections are no longer part of the runway. It was originally
planned to accomplish such striping following the overlay as striping is
normally done after any paving and, the time interval between the two
construction projects was expected to be relatively short.
Thus, it will be necessary to stripe the edges of the 100' runway at
least on a temporary basis (6" wide stripe, dashed if necessary to save
paint) until better striping can be applied.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us,
Sincerel• ,
Max G. Ulrich
