Klamath Falls approves $6.8 million contract to repair Air National Guard aircraft shelter
Summary
The city authorized a $6,805,933.81 construction contract and related professional services to repair an aircraft shelter as part of airfield work tied to converting the base from F‑15 to F‑35 operations.
Klamath Falls City Council on June 2 authorized a $6,805,933.81 construction contract with Outlier Construction LLC to repair aircraft shelter B‑325 for the Oregon Air National Guard.
The contract is part of airfield work tied to the larger conversion from F‑15 to F‑35 aircraft, Development Services Director Ian Bazzi said. Bazzi told the council the city bid the job and recommended awarding it to Outlier Construction; he also said the project will include additional engineering services with Mead & Hunt for $271,000 and a $340,000 city construction-management fee.
“The purpose of this one tonight is to get the authorization to award the bid to Outlier Construction as specified,” Ian Bazzi, development services director, said during the presentation. Bazzi also said the city already has an MCCA with the Air National Guard that covers this work.
Councilors moved and seconded a motion to authorize the city manager to execute the construction services contract; the motion passed on a voice vote with no recorded opposition.
The contract award authorizes the city manager to sign the construction agreement and allocates funds for the listed engineering and management fees. Council did not amend the award amount during the meeting, and staff did not provide a revised timeline for construction completion at the meeting.
