The current 10,000 gallon 100LL Avgas tank is able to accommodate the demand
throughout the forecast period.
4.03-5 Automobile Parking
The number of auto spaces required at an airport is also dependent upon the level of
general aviation aircraft activity at the facility. The methodology for determining
parking needs relates peak hour pilots, passengers, and airport employees to the
number of parking spaces required. Numbers of peak hour pilots and passengers were
previously derived for the general aviation terminal building requirements. The
number of employees currently working at the airport is zero. This number was held
steady for the forecast period. The number of auto parking spaces equaled the sum of
the peak hour pilots/passengers and employees at the Airport. This number was
converted into paved area by using a standard of 22 square yards per vehicle space
(refer to Table 4-13). Currently, the Airport has approximately 5,333 SY, which
equates to 242 parking spaces, for use by the public. The two lots located within
airport fencing are not considered public parking. The forecasted operations indicate
that there are adequate parking spaces to meet demand throughout the planning
period.
