Committee notes taxiway reconstruction grant; bid closed, start date depends on contractor and FAA funding
Summary
The Airport Advisory Committee reported that City Council approved a grant for parallel taxiway reconstruction; the bid closed April 17 and the project start will depend on contractor availability and FAA release of funds. Members were warned of expected closures during construction.
The Airport Advisory Committee on April 17 confirmed City Council had approved a grant application for a parallel taxiway reconstruction project and recorded that the bid closed that day at 2:00 p.m. The committee said the work’s start date will depend on the winning contractor’s availability and on when the Federal Aviation Administration releases the awarded funds.
The meeting minutes note the project will require a period of closure at the airport while work proceeds. The clerk told members the timeline for the start of construction cannot be set until the procurement and FAA funding steps are complete.
Committee members did not vote on the reconstruction at the meeting; the committee’s role at this stage is to receive updates and monitor coordination with the FAA and the City Council. The clerk also recorded that Dan Gillis is pursuing an additional taxiway grant, which members listed under ongoing action items.
The committee did not specify a contractor, estimated costs, or an exact start date; those details will be determined after the bid evaluation and federal funding release. The committee will review any project specifications once FAA approvals and procurement results are complete.
The meeting adjourned at 9:27 A.M.
