McCall council approves FAA AIP grant agreement for taxiway design, reconstruction
Summary
The council approved a Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program grant agreement (AIP 3-16-0023-035-2025) covering design work for taxiway Kilo and to finish Echo, with a maximum federal obligation of $204,596; the city expects to apply for construction funding next year.
Jerry Bison, airport operations superintendent at the McCall Airport, briefed the council on a FAA Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grant offer to fund design of taxiway Kilo and final work on taxiway Echo.
The grant agreement lists a maximum federal obligation of $204,596 for the offered design work. Councilmembers noted the city typically provides a local match in the 5%–10% range for FAA AIP projects; specific matching percentages and construction funding requests will be pursued in future grant cycles.
The council moved and seconded a motion to approve the grant agreement AIP 3-16-0023-035-2025 and to authorize the mayor to sign all required documents. A roll-call vote recorded unanimous support from the council present.
Jerry said the city plans to apply next year for construction funding once the design work is completed. The grant agreement was approved on the record, and staff will proceed with the FAA grant process.
