Mr. Doi,
This Airport Improvement Program Letter is to notify you that the Illinois
Department of Transportation has added a State-Local Planning Project to
IDOT’s FY 2024 Airport Improvement Program for the Galesburg Municipal
Airport.
In the event the Illinois General Assembly fails to appropriate funds, or
sufficient funds are otherwise not made available for this project, the Airport
Sponsor will be required to pay the state costs as itemized below.
No additional state funds beyond those listed in this Airport Improvement
Program Letter will be allocated to this Project. Any additional project costs
which exceed the Total Project Cost as planned and programmed are solely
the responsibility of the Airport Sponsor.
The project is titled: “Airport Layout Plan: Aviation Forecasts and Primary
Runway Alternatives Phase 1”.
State of Illinois Road Funds $43,200
Local Match $4,800
Total Project Cost $48,000
The project contained in this letter is officially programmed for development
provided all state and federal requirements have been met. It is now the
Airport Sponsor's responsibility to initiate the professional services phase of
the project. Please contact Aeronautics, either directly or through your
consultant, to schedule a project initiation meeting.

To ensure eligibility of professional services for state participation, you are
required to satisfy the qualifications-based selection process and enter into a
retainer agreement, or professional services A/E agreement with the
consultant of record selected for the project prior to any costs being incurred.
This should take place prior to the project initiation/pre-design meeting.
Aeronautics will facilitate this process, as well as the initial development and
review of fees.
Please contact Ms. Kristy Brod, P.E. in Aeronautics at 217.785.4214 to initiate
this project. Projects are initiated by scheduling a project initiation meeting for
planning projects.
Please contact me in the Office of Planning and Programming at
217.782.4118 if you have questions regarding this program letter.
Sincerely,
BJ Murray
