Summary

Airport staff said the Bonanza Drive access road contract was executed with a change order to keep it within budget; terminal expansion (a 4,700 sq ft hold-room) is in design and staff anticipates a July construction start pending an expected FAA grant announcement in June.

Don said the Bonanza Drive (airport access road) contract was fully executed and a change order reduced the negotiated fee to keep the project within budget; the airport expects to issue a notice to proceed to Bonnke Construction and schedule a pre-construction meeting. A ribbon-cutting or groundbreaking is anticipated once schedules align.

On the terminal expansion, Don said Park Hill (design firm) and Lindbeck (construction manager at risk) continue design work on 'package 1', a proposed 4,700-square-foot expansion of the boarding hold room. He said staff expects an FAA grant decision in June and plans to begin construction in July if funding is awarded; staff will wait to avoid starting work that would not be reimbursed by the grant.
