• Pavement maintenance needed at the airport.
• Grant funded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Colorado Division of Aeronautics (CDOA), and the Town.
BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:
The 2026 Capital Budget includes funds for pavement maintenance at the Erie Municipal Airport. On March 24, 2026, Council approved a grant from Colorado Division of Aeronautics (CDOA). On Mar 2, 2026, the Town entered into an agreement with Lochner for design services.
Lochner prepared and requested bids on April 1, 2026. Two bids were received on April 29, 2026. The low bidder was CR Contracting with a bid amount of $428,854.00.
The combination of the design contract with Lochner for $99,700 and construction costs plus an estimated $1,000 for administration expenses (such as advertising costs) puts the project total at $529,554.00.
The Town is working with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for a grant that will be brought to Council at a future meeting. The total funding breakdown is as follows:
Funding Summary
FAA $243,403.00
