Council hears update on Sentinel Air Force project; local businesses urged to pursue contracts
Summary
Council Member Megan Darrah told the District 6 council the Sentinel Air Force program has a seven‑year window to replace 155 missile sites and build 24 launch sites across five states; early construction and base-gate work are underway and local contractors were invited to contact project coordinators.
Council Member Megan Darrah briefed the Great Falls Neighborhood Council District 6 on the Sentinel Air Force project, describing a multi‑year effort to change out 155 missile sites and erect 24 launch sites across five states.
Darrah said the program operates on a roughly seven‑year window, that early “dirt phase” work and the construction of a new base gate are already underway, and that local businesses should contact project organizers about potential contracting opportunities. She framed the update as an early-stage notice for community contractors rather than a finalized local procurement plan; no local contract values or award schedules were provided in the meeting.
The council did not take any formal votes related to the project at the May 6 meeting.
