The money will reimburse the Airport Fund for the cost of the new noise monitoring system which was recently installed in the Clover Field Terminal and Administration Building. BACKGROUND The Santa Monica Airport Noise Mitigation Program, adopted by the City council in November of 1983, called for the Airport's dated and obsolete noise monitoring equipment to be replaced by a state-of-the-art system tha t would streamline implementation of the performance-based noise standards described in the Program. Towards that end, a noise monitoring system was proposed for the State Transportation Improvement program in FY 1985-86 and funds b--:e DEe 1 3 1~86 . . were appropriated in anticipation of a state grant in account nl~!I1hers 33-710-631-000-904 ($35,000 local match) and 52-710-631-000-901 ($315,000 grant funds). In FY 1987-88, the total project appropriation was reduced to $225,000 to reflect the actual project cost of which $22,500 represented a local match. The state has now awarded grant funds in the amount of $202,000 which are available to fund the project in FY 1988-89. BUDGETARY/FISCAL IMPACT The remaining appropriations in Accounts 52-710-631-000-904 and 33-710-631-000-904 are sufficient to complete this project. A revenue account will need to be established in Fund 52 to recognize the $202,000 grant from the state. RECOMMENDATIONS Staff respectfully recommends that the city Council: 1) Approve the attached Resolution which certifies the availability of local matching funds and authorizes the City Manager to file an application and negotiate and execute grant documents pursuant to the grant agreement, and 2) Approve creation of an appropriate revenue account to receive the grant.
