The County Court
Kerr County, Texas
Resolution
Whereas	The Kerrville/Kerr County Airport is expanding in conformance
	with its Master plan, and an element of expansion is the creation of
	anew entrance off State Highway 27, and roadway within the
	airport; and
Whereas	The volume of traffic that daily enters and leaves the airport and
	the residential area behind the airport continues to expand due to
	the addition of business operations on the airport; and
Whereas	There has been a history of traffic accidents and fatalities at the
	airport entrance intersection, sufficient in number to cause the
	Texas Department of Transportation to install a blinking signal
	light at the entrance that will soon be abandoned; and
Whereas	A turn lane to facilitate east-bound traffic funning left into the
	airport, and a turn lane to facilitate west-bound traffic turning right
	into the airport, plus the re-location of the blinking signal light will
	mitigate against future traffic accidents occurring at this
	intersection; not therefore be it
Resolved	That Kerr County Commissioners' Court does hereby request that
	the Texas Department of Transportation authorize construction of
	both east and west-bound turn lanes into the new entrance to the
	Kerrville/Kerr County airport at the earliest possible date.
Adopted at a Special Session of Kerr County Commissioners'
