City approves $20,000 supplemental agreement for airport parallel taxiway; FAA still funding 90%
Summary
Commission authorized a $20,000 supplemental agreement for design changes on the crosswind runway parallel taxiway project; the Federal Aviation Administration will reimburse 90% with the city covering a 10% share from airport funds.
The city approved a supplemental agreement to address a change in scope and plans for the parallel taxiway project tied to the Crosswind Runway, adding $20,000 in design compensation.
An airport staff member told commissioners the FAA required a change before bids could go out; the supplemental agreement updates plans and the consultant's compensation. The project remains in an FAA grant with a 90% federal share and a 10% local share. The airport budget will initially cover the local portion but staff said the expense is reimbursable under the grant.
Vice Mayor Landry moved to approve the supplemental agreement and authorize the mayor or city manager to sign; Commissioner Parsons seconded. The motion passed 4‑0.
Staff said bids for the parallel taxiway will be issued later in the month and that the final engineer's design report had just been received.
