Summary & Background: The Department of Public Works recommends approval to extend the existing contract with Robinson Aviation, Inc. (RVA) to provide air traffic control night coverage services at Fulton County Executive Airport - Charlie Brown Field.

 

Scope of Work: The air traffic control tower located at the Fulton County Executive Airport - Charlie Brown Field is manned by air traffic controllers 24 hours a day to serve the general aviation aircraft landing and taking off from the Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) contracts directly with Robinson Aviation, Inc. (RVA) to provide 16 hours of daytime air traffic control services through contract #DTFAWA-15 C000019. This contract will be renewed by the FAA during the first quarter of 2023. 

Fulton County has traditionally funded the 8 hours of night service not covered by the FAA through a separate contract between Fulton County and RVA. This contract was extended by the BOC on December 1, 2021, to cover the night coverage through December 31, 2022. This request is to extend the contract for the period of January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2023, to ensure uninterrupted nighttime coverage

 

Community Impact: No impacts are anticipated within the community based on this contract extension.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works recommends approval to extend existing contract to provide air traffic control night coverage services at the Fulton County Executive Airport - Charlie Brown Field

 

Project Implications: The FAA assures the Air Traffic Control Tower provides safe, orderly, and expeditious movement of air traffic in the vicinity of and on the movement area of the Fulton County Executive Airport - Charlie Brown Field. The Airport Enterprise Fund has traditionally paid the added costs associated with night coverage to allow for 24-hour coverage at the airport. No other metro Atlanta airport, with the exception of Hartsfield-Jackson, provides 24-hour coverage at their control towers.

 

Community Issues/Concerns: None has been raised to Public Works staff.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: The department has no issues or concerns as long as the current contract can be extended while we await final direction from the FAA.
