Airport gate, apron and terminal upgrades move forward as RFPs draw interest

Sullivan County Public Works Committee · August 13, 2026

Summary

Staff updated legislators on airport security gate work, apron repaving near t-hangars and strong private interest in an airport RFP; they said terminal access gates and apron projects are being coordinated to minimize disruption.

Facilities and public‑works staff described multiple airport projects, including security gating, apron repaving around t‑hangars and an RFP that has generated private interest in office and service space near the terminal.

“Zed mentioned the gate project that's been an ongoing long 1 that we've been coordinating with the emergency management office,” facilities staff said, noting that installing the terminal fuel gate and aligning other gates before paving would improve sequencing. Staff also described a Ketchum Fencing contract to add controlled gating and a man‑gate to improve t‑hangar parking and security.

Staff reported roughly 54,000 gallons of Jet A sold so far this year and said contractors are coordinating fuel‑gate alignment, RFP follow‑up and timing so work can be completed before or alongside paving to reduce rework. The committee asked staff to continue coordination and to return with schedule details and final contract numbers.
