Dunn County Airport Authority accepts $2.68 million taxiway bid, awards engineering contract
Summary
The authority voted unanimously to accept Bluestone Construction's $2,681,722.22 bid for taxiway and taxi lane construction and awarded Bolton & Menk a $213,000 contract for construction administration and observation; the board also approved paying Bolton & Menk's 90%-design invoice.
The Dunn County Airport Authority voted April 6 to accept Bluestone Construction's low bid of $2,681,722.22 to build a new taxiway and taxi lane and to award Bolton & Menk a $213,000 contract for construction administration and observation. The motions passed by roll-call vote with all members voting aye.
Nick Grahek of Bolton & Menk presented the project bids and timetable and referenced an NDAC grant application as part of the funding and scheduling discussion; the transcript does not expand the NDAC acronym. Board member Logan Lynch moved to accept the Bluestone bid; Tracey Dolezal seconded. For the engineering contract, Jeff Jacobson moved and Craig Pelton seconded; both motions were recorded as unanimous.
The board also approved payment of a $29,880.00 invoice from Bolton & Menk for taxiway design at 90% completion on a motion by Tracey Dolezal, seconded by Brent Woodworth. The board's approvals of the bid, the engineering contract and the 90%-design payment were recorded by roll-call vote, with every member voting in favor.
Board members discussed coordinating pesticide applicator staging and other operational details to avoid conflicts with the taxiway construction schedule. The authority noted that the presentation included the project's timetable and bid details but did not provide additional funding breakdowns or an expanded definition of the NDAC grant in the record.
The board's action clears the way for construction procurement and on-site observation under the awarded engineering contract; the board set no additional contingencies in the recorded motions.
