Summary

At its Dec. 17 meeting the Granbury City Council awarded an aviation fuel supply contract to World Fuel Services Inc., approved a construction contract for a fuel-truck storage building to Lever Construction LLC (not to exceed $422,195) and adopted an ordinance amending the airport fund budget for FY 2024–25.

The Granbury City Council voted Tuesday to award an aviation fuel-supply contract to World Fuel Services Inc. and to approve construction of a fuel-truck storage building at Granbury Regional Airport, authorizing the city manager to finalize both contracts and adopting a budget amendment for the airport fund.

The award to World Fuel follows a request for proposals advertised on Nov. 9 and Nov. 16 that drew three responses. Cody Mathis, the city viation director, told the council the scoring committee found World Fuel offered the best value "in terms of brand image, reputation, technology offerings, and personnel training opportunities," and that its capabilities would "best support the rapid growth of our city's aviation operations." Councilmembers then voted to approve the recommendation; the motion was made by Mister Wadley and seconded by Mister Olam and passed with all members voting in favor.

Separately, the council approved a contract not to exceed $422,195 to Lever Construction LLC for the fuel-truck and equipment storage building at the airport. Mathis said Lever was rated highest for proposed schedule and prior airport work and noted Lever constructed the new airport terminal; the terminal building's architectural firm PGAL supplied a letter recommending Lever. The council approved the construction contract and simultaneously adopted ordinance number 24-77 to amend the airport fund operating budget for fiscal year 2024–25 to pay for the work. The motion to award the construction contract and adopt the ordinance was seconded by Mister Obergueyer and recorded as approved by the council.

The council directed the city manager to finalize and execute the contracts on behalf of the city. No public comment was recorded on these agenda items during the meeting.
