Board reviews routine airport contracts and RFP results for concessions
Summary
Airport staff summarized several consent‑agenda items including a small change order for runway stencils, a right‑of‑way for electricity to new hangars, a United Airlines agreement (approx. $671,821.14 revenue), Telluride Express moving off‑airport at 10% of gross, and rental‑car RFP results for Enterprise and Avis/Budget.
Airport staff (Lloyd Arnold) presented several consent‑agenda items for the board’s review:
- A change order for $3,750 to purchase large runway‑number stencils for the Nucleus Silco project; because this is a grant deliverable the county would pay only 10% of the stencil cost and retain the stencils for airport use.
- A right‑of‑way access agreement for Delta Montrose Electrical Association to serve five new hangars under construction.
- An annual agreement with United Airlines with projected annual revenue of $671,821.14 covering landing fees and building rentals.
- A contract with Telluride Express that will operate off‑airport and pay 10% of gross for three years; staff said the percentage is fixed for the term and revenue estimates will be clearer after a year in operation.
- Rental car concession RFP results showing Enterprise (projected gross revenue of $406,168.50) and Avis/Budget (projected gross revenue reported differently by the RFP); staff noted differences result from the RFP bids.
Staff recommended placing these items on the consent agenda; commissioners had no substantive objections recorded during the work session.
Next steps: the items were presented for inclusion on consent at the upcoming regular meeting for formal approval.
