Thomas <br />Mayor, City of LaPorte <br />P. 0. Box 1115 <br />LaPorte, Texas 77571 <br />Dear Mayor Thomas: <br />We have considered your application seeking $433,015 in federal funds <br />under the Airport Development Aid Program (ADAP) for airport development <br />at LaPorte Municipal Airport. Requests for assistance under the Fiscal <br />Year 1975 ADAP far exceeded available funds within this region and <br />nationwide. Although funding constraint has been the program's history <br />for the last four years, the problem was particularly aggravated this <br />year, which is the last one for which the program has been authorized <br />by Congress. <br />In order to make sure that the limited funds that were available would <br />be used only for the most urgently needed items of airport development, <br />it was necessary that the requests for aid be analyzed from the <br />standpoint of strict priorities and that the funds be allocated only <br />• for those items that met the tests in competition with other requests <br />for aid. On that basis, we were unable to approve your project. We <br />are, however, retaining the request and other documentation submitted <br />so that the project can be quickly and easily reconsidered if additional <br />funding is made available. <br />Should you have any questions about the matter, our District Office <br />personnel will be glad to provide additional information. <br />Sincerely, <br />Director <br /> <br />
