BACKGROUND: The hangar shortage at Drake Field has been an ongoing concern for several years, and like many airports, we have a long hangar waiting list. We have been approached by multiple developers wanting to construct new hangars on the airfield, but the lack of existing infrastructure has deterred developers from moving forward with construction. Phase 1 of the Hangar Infrastructure Improvements project is currently in construction. Upon completion, this project will provide new water utility infrastructure for future development of clear span hangars adjacent to the east side of the GA Apron. With utility infrastructure in place, we will be poised to construct Phase 2 which will include performing site development work and building pad construction. Specifically, the project includes asphalt pavement removal, earthwork, utility extension, and necessary drainage improvements for future hangar development space on the east side of the existing GA Apron. DISCUSSION: This project is included in the Airport's Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Upon receipt of an ADA Grant Offer, the Aviation Division will seek approval from Council to execute the grant offer and execute a Task Order with Garver, LLC to provide design and construction phase services for the project. The ADA grant will cover 80% of project costs, with the remainder to be funded by the City. Below is a summary of the anticipated project costs and funding breakdown for the project. Design and Construction Phase Services: $46,000.00 ADA:$300,000.00 Construction (Estimated): $330,500.00 City: $76,500.00 TOTAL: $376,500.00 TOTAL: $376,500.00 1. Future Task Order with Garver, LLC pending receipt of ADA Grant Offer. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: No staff or budget impacts at this time. After receipt of a grant offer, the Aviation Division will seek approval from Council to execute a design services Task Order with Garver, LLC, and process a budget adjustment.
