Item No. 14-094
Date: February 24, 2014
Item/Subject: ORDER, Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Extension of the Airport
Improvement Project (AIP) Engineering and Architectural Services Contract with Jacobs Engineering
Responsible Department: Airport
Commentary: This order will authorize the City Manager to extend an agreement with Jacobs
Engineering for design and architectural services at the airport through completion of the current AIP
projects. In July of 2009, the City awarded a five (5) year contract for engineering and architectural
services for airport improvement projects (AIP) to Jacobs Engineering. Currently, Jacobs is working on
several projects including the canal fill project, runway sensor system, terminal paging system and
Godfrey Blvd rehabiliation. If approved, Jacobs will be retained to complete current construction
projects that are in process and will not be utilized for new projects. In accordance with the Federal
Aviation Administration guidelines, staff will prepare and issue the new RFP/Q prior to the start of the
next construction season. This has been reviewed and approved by the Finance Committee during its
meeting on February 19, 2014.
