AIRPORT MASTER PLAN <br /> <br />C HAPTER 1: I NTRODUCTION <br />I NTRODUCTION AND P URPOSE <br />An Airport Master Plan (AMP) evaluates <br />principals, planned development, and financial foundation for the future. Because <br />the aviation industry is not static, periodic updates are needed to refresh this <br />information and identify future plans and expectations. The San Marcos Regional <br />Airport (HYI) has had some significant changes since the previous airport master <br />planwas completed in 2001. These changes include changes in area economic <br />conditions, increased based aircraft demand, and changes in fleet mix. <br />This master plan will focus on examining existing facilities, forecasting future <br />aviation demands, identifying the projects necessary to meet that demand, and <br />examining the financial means to achieve the short- and long-term goals for San <br />Marcos Regional Airport. Additionally, the master plan will serve as a tool to aid <br />airport officials in their decision-making regarding San Marcos Regional Airport <br />upkeep and future development. <br />An overview of the AMP process is provided in Figure 1-1. <br /> <br />Introduction Chapter Page 1 of 4 <br />October 2020 <br /> <br /> <br />
