BACKGROUND
The RAMP is a State assisted airport maintenance program that will enable the Department of Aviation to conduct needed annual maintenance repairs at Dallas Executive Airport. Some examples of RAMP projects include annual maintenance contracts, lighting, and RAMP area crack seal. The primary objective of the project is to conduct an evaluation and make necessary repairs under the RAMP and TxDOT guidelines.
TxDOT will determine whether or not repairs are within the scope of eligible projects for the TxDOT Grant for RAMP Funds and will participate in an amount equal to 50 percent of eligible project costs or an amount of $50,000.00, whichever is less. TxDOT’s estimated reimbursement for this project is an amount of $50,000.00 based on the total project cost estimate of $100,000.00.
