Commissioners approve state‑funded airport perimeter fence phase three and award construction contract
Summary
Montgomery County commissioners voted to adopt a grant project ordinance and award a construction contract for phase three of the airport perimeter fence (northeast side), following staff assurance that engineering and environmental permitting are complete.
County manager Frankie told commissioners the county secured state grant funding to extend airport perimeter fencing and requested approval of a grant project ordinance and a resolution to award the construction contract for phase three, which covers the northeast side of the airport.
Frankie said engineering and environmental permitting were complete and recommended approval. After a brief call for a motion and second, the board approved both the grant ordinance and the contract award.
Staff said construction could begin in mid‑May if all conditions are met. The county will execute the contract and use the awarded state funds to proceed; Frankie said the awarded grant amount exceeds the current contracted amount for construction plus associated costs.
No individual vote tallies were read into the record beyond the board’s voice assent to approve the motions. Staff said they would return to the board if any unexpected fiscal impacts arise.
