PART IV PROGRAM NARRATIVE STATEMENT OBJECTIVE: To provide funding for the preparation of a Master Plan for the present site of the Batesville Municipal Airport. NEED: The City of Batesville currently has an urgent need to expand its airport facilities. It has no master plan. Prior to com- mitting the future expansion and building, a long term master plan must be developed in order to provide for efficient and orderly utilization of present space and facilities, as well as possible land acquisition, zone easements and other miscellaneous improvements required by future demand for services. Each of these items needs detailed investigation and documentation as well as environmental clearance. The proposed Airport Master Plan is required to provide this detailed documentation and environmental data as a basis for future growth. BENEFITS: The proposed Airport MasterPlan will provide detailed recommendation and documentation for future development to satisfy projected aviation demand. APPROACH: The Airport Master Plan will be developed in the four phases • outlined in FAA Advisory Circular 150/5070-6: Phase I An inventory of existing airport facilities and an analysis of airport requirements to serve the area. Phase II Evaluation of the existing airport site for • future development. Phase III Planning the airport with respect to airport layout, land use, terminal areas, and airport access. Phase IV Development of a financial plan to fund the proposed facilities and improvements. Phase I - Airport Requirements (1) Inventory The inventory will be of existing airport facilities at Batesville, area planning efforts which may affect the master plan, and review of existing area airport plans.
