On July 12, 1991, Chicago advertised a Request for Proposal (RFQ) for the Landside and
Terminal components of the Master Plan Update (ALP Update). The RFQ described the
elements of the original Master Plan and O’Hare Development Program (ODP-I) and asked for a
consultant proposal to prepare a twenty-year development program.
In 1982, the O’Hare Master Plan was adopted and was
implemented as the O’Hare Development Program or ODP. The
master plan provided a schedule for airport expansion for the
period from 1982-1995. Ground was broken on the first project in
August 1982. As of December 1989 the ODP was 90% complete
for design and 85% for construction. 115

Chicago’s Request For Proposal (RFQ) directed the bidding contractor to:
Prepare a development program that identifies all capital
improvement projects expected to occur within the 20-year
planning time frame. The development program should be
divided into three development phases: 1995-2000, 2000-2005,
2005-2015. 116
H. The Chronological Development of the Master Plan Update (a/k/a ALP Update).
The best way to understand the development of the Master Plan Update (a/k/a ALP
Update) is to examine that development in chronological sequence:
1. 1991 Work on the Master Plan Update (a/k/a ALP Update).
While several important steps were taken toward initiation of the Master Plan Update in
1991, an actual start of the O’Hare Master Plan did not begin for a number of reasons, including
the fact that much of the Department of Aviation’s and Landrum & Brown’s resources were
focused on Lake Calumet.
