Crawfordsville airport board ratifies $520,339 pay request, approves fund transfers
Summary
On Feb. 18, 2026, the Crawfordsville Board of Aviation Commissioners unanimously approved several pay requests tied to FAA/INDOT grants, ratified two resolutions transferring funds between airport accounts, and approved a claims docket totaling $27,548.55.
The Crawfordsville Board of Aviation Commissioners voted Feb. 18 to ratify several construction and design payments and to approve two internal fund transfers.
President Gerald A. Dreyer presented Pay Request 3 for AIP‑26 (wildlife fencing construction) in the amount of $520,339.28 for ratification. Lori Curless, airport manager, said the work is funded 97.5% by the Federal Aviation Administration and the Indiana Department of Transportation, leaving a 2.5% local match. Vice‑President Behling moved to approve; Commissioner Allen seconded. The board recorded all ayes and the motion carried.
The board also approved Pay Request 4 for AIP‑26 for $19,216.01 and Pay Request 2 for AIP‑27 (snow removal equipment building design) for $2,250.92. Each motion passed unanimously after a short presentation from Ms. Curless about funding sources.
On financial housekeeping, the board adopted Resolution 01‑2026 to move funds from fund 2520 (hangar rental) to fund 2521 (aircraft rental) after a tenant who terminated a hangar lease requested their security deposit be transferred into an aircraft rental account. Commissioner Allen moved to approve Resolution 01‑2026; Vice‑President Behling seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
The board also approved Resolution 02‑2026, transferring $215,415.70 from fund 2510 (fuel) into fund 2206 (aviation general). Ms. Curless said the transfer follows Indiana Code 8‑22‑2‑7(c). Commissioner Allen moved to approve; Vice‑President Behling seconded and the board voted all ayes.
President Dreyer then presented a claims docket totaling $27,548.55 for approval. Vice‑President Behling moved to approve the claims; Commissioner Allen seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
The board took no public audience requests, heard no legal‑counsel or clerk‑treasurer reports, and adjourned at 4:42 p.m. The board members present for votes were President Gerald A. Dreyer, Vice‑President Behling, and Commissioner Allen.
What happens next: These approvals allow the airport to continue funded construction and design work under the AIP grants; any further expenditures tied to these grants will be subject to the same grant matching requirements and future board action as needed.
