SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:
On May 25, 2021, the Board approved an agreement with Armstrong Consultants, Inc. to be the Town’s Consultant of Record that helps the municipality with airport related grant applications, and design and management of airport capital projects over the next five years. All projects are dependent upon Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Improvement Program (AIP), Colorado Division of Aeronautics (CDOA), and Town joint funding.
The first amendment covered design of the Automated Weather Observation System (AWOS) relocation that is currently under construction. This second amendment is for grant assistance, design, and construction management of improvements to Taxiway A and apron areas.
This third amendment is to upgrade and relocate the existing vault building at the airport. Staff has reviewed Armstrong’s proposal and found it to be acceptable. Accordingly, staff recommends Town Council approve the amendment for $102,220 as well as an additional $12,778 for contingency. CDOA has awarded this project. Funding is expected to be 90% CDOA and 10% Town.
