(CHA) to prepare a Master Plan (Study) for Blue Grass Airport (LEX or Airport). The purpose of the Study was to evaluate the current space utilization and operational characteristics of the airfield, terminal facility, support facilities, ground access, and land development considerations. It was intended to consider all alternatives that can be developed for the best use of space and logical guidance provided for the continued improvements necessary to accommodate projected aviation activity in a logical and financially feasible manner throughout a 20-year planning period.  \nThis introductory chapter provides a description of the project and a background overview of the Airport and its facilities. Additional information about the Airport and the Study can be found [at](at www.bluegrassairport.com/masterplan/)[ ](at www.bluegrassairport.com/masterplan/)[www.bluegrassairport.com/masterplan/](at www.bluegrassairport.com/masterplan/).  \nThe Airport’s website, [www.bluegrassairport.com](www.bluegrassairport.com), also has destination and flight information, airport maps, driving directions, ground transportation options, and parking information.  \n1.1 Project Description  \nAirport master planning systematically evaluates existing facility and market conditions, identifies anticipated stakeholder needs, and formulates both near-and long-term development strategies. The results of the Master Plan provide the guidance necessary for the Airport to address the need for airport facilities’improvements and land development considerations for the next 20 years (planning horizon) and beyond. This technical document and the associated Airport Layout Plan (ALP) set area strategic development tool for guiding ongoing improvements to airport facilities. The process, methods, and ultimate products are guided by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5070-6B, Airport Master Plans.  \nThe results of the Master Plan provide the guidance necessary for the Airport to address the need for airport facilities’improvements and land development considerations for the next 20 years and beyond.  \nConsistent with this guidance, the process followed for preparing the LEX Master Plan are outlined in Figure 1-1. Throughout the master planning process, three components require FAA approval: aviation activity forecasts, future critical aircraft, and the ALP.  \nFigure 1-1  \nMaster Planning Process  \n*Requires FAA approval.  \nIntroduction 1-1  \n1.1.1 Purpose and Objectives  \nThe purpose of the Study was to provide long-term guidance for continued airport improvements necessary to satisfy projected aviation demand in a logical and financially feasible manner. Consistent with this purpose, objectives were established for the Master Plan after coordination with LFUCAB and can be found in the Appendices.  \n1.1.2 Public Involvement Program  \nPublic involvement is an integral part of any significant airport planning study. It encourages information sharing and collaboration among the community and the airport stakeholders, who hold a collective interest in the Study’s outcome. Stakeholders include the airport sponsor, airlines, tenants, users and travelers, local businesses and residents, resource agencies, elected and appointed public officials, and the public. With such a diverse stakeholder group, it is important to use a variety of forums such as committees, public involvement meetings, and public awareness campaigns to enhance the program’s effectiveness.  \nPublic involvement is an integral part of any significant airport planning study.  \nTechnical Advisory Committee  \nCommunity Leadership Advisory Committee  \nA Community Leadership Advisory Committee (CLAC) was established, consisting of 15 to 20 leaders within the community, and included economic development, travel, government, and business organizations. The committee met two ti","cbCaisIIDvQAdgdi","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisIIDvQAdgdi","pdf",2883141,14,"English","# Introduction\n## Project Description\n## Purpose and Objectives\n## Public Involvement Program","[{\"question\":\"What was the purpose of the Master Plan Study for Blue Grass Airport?\",\"answer\":\"To provide long-term guidance for continued airport improvements that satisfy projected aviation demand in a logical and financially feasible manner.\"},{\"question\":\"What areas does the study evaluate to guide airport development?\",\"answer\":\"Current space utilization and operational characteristics of the airfield, terminal facility, support facilities, ground access, and land development considerations.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is public involvement considered essential in the Master Plan process?\",\"answer\":\"It encourages information sharing and collaboration among community and airport stakeholders, using forums such as committees, meetings, and awareness campaigns.\"}]","MasterPlan - Chapter 1 - Introduction | PDF",35]
