Item No.
Date: September 23, 2009
Item/Subject: Order, Authorizing the Airport to Enter into a Contract with Thibodeau Construction
in the Amount of $2,226,795.00 for the Construction of Phase II of the Cargo Aircraft
Parking Apron.
Responsible Department: Airport
Commentary:
The Airport has received a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration for the re -construction
of the Cargo Aircraft Parking Apron. This is the aircraft parking area located between the
International Arrivals building and the Joint -Use Military aircraft parking area. The area still has
the original pavement constructed by the military, and it has exceeded its useful life expectancy.
This area is a safety hazard due to the potential for aircraft to ingest pavement debris into
aircraft engines. The grant will fund 95% of the project with the remaining 5% being split
between the Airport and the State. Thibodeau Construction is the low bidder for this project.
