Committee flags contractor unresponsiveness on terminal repairs; staff may pull bonds
Summary
Committee members reported multiple unresolved terminal building issues — missing keys, broken window seals, non‑functioning heating zones and a refused cabinet installation — and Shane McDougall said he is considering pulling contractor 'King's' bonds unless work is completed.
The Airport Advisory Committee on Feb. 3 raised multiple concerns about finishing work on the airport terminal and the contractor known as King.
Shane McDougall told the committee that King has been unresponsive on several items: window‑screen installation, unresolved heating‑zone problems, and confirmation that the CBP office air exchanger is working. Victoria Ganz reported a broken window seal with water between panes and said a kitchen‑cabinet installer declined to perform the work because of crown‑molding complications. Victoria also said keys were missing for some entrance doors; Chris Krohn asked staff to check with a locksmith and Bob Chieffo suggested sending King the bill if the contractor failed to provide keys.
Shane said he is considering 'pulling bonds' because of King’s unresponsiveness. The committee asked staff to pursue a locksmith and to document outstanding items to determine whether to pursue contractual remedies.
Why it matters: Delays in resolving terminal building work affect airport operations and tenant access, and pulling a contractor’s bond would be a formal remedial measure with financial and scheduling consequences.
Next steps: Shane will document outstanding items and pursue options; Karl agreed to contact a locksmith to resolve key access; staff will follow up at the March meeting.
