Abstract:

The development is described of the economic impact analysis that formed part of the site evaluation process for the new Louisville Jefferson county airport. Three major sources of direct employment associted with the airport-industrial complex development are identified. Land development, industrial land requirements, and the estimation of airport construction costs are discussed. Comments are made on the development of an economic base employment multiplier, and on a computerized model to calculate the impact of alternative projects on investment, employment, payroll and taxes. The model requires 2 major inputs: construction costs and emplanements. The model was run under 3 sets of conditions: pessimistic, likely and optimistic. The analysis also determined the effect of the airport-industrial development on local tax revenues.
