Airport apron, PAPI and AWOS projects move forward; fuel‑farm grant still pending
Summary
Engineering staff reported progress on airport apron preparations and approach indicators; AWOS siting was approved and an easement is pending for a May grant application. A fuel‑farm grant was denied initially but staff continue to pursue other opportunities.
City Engineer Glenn Davis updated the committee that the airport apron contractor is coordinating solutions for water and electrical details; final construction timing is being resolved. He said PAPI (precision approach path indicators) work is scheduled to proceed with about a 12‑month construction window, and that AWOS site adjustments were approved by the FAA with an easement pending from the property owner prior to a May design‑grant application.
Davis said the airport fuel‑farm grant was initially denied but staff are exploring other grant opportunities. No council action was requested; staff will return with updates as grant opportunities or contractor schedules change.
"The location site was adjusted and then approved by FAA so everything seemed to be on board for a grant application in May," Davis said of the AWOS item.
