Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program and Passenger Facility Charges, California Aid to Airports Program, and Aviation Division
DISCUSSION:
This project rehabilitated deteriorating and age-distressed pavement on the Garberville Airport's runway, taxiway, and taxiway connectors; replaced drainage facilities; and constructed two aircraft run-up aprons connecting to the parallel taxiway.
On June 21, 2016, the Board of Supervisors authorized the Clerk of the Board to advertise the above-referenced project for bids. On July 12, 2016, the county received two bids for the project. The contract was awarded to Mercer-Fraser Company, the lowest responsible bidder, on Sept. 13, 2016. The award amount was $2,181,990.00, and contract change orders through project completion amounted to an increase of $196,008.67.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Total construction costs for this project were $2,377,998.67. This project was funded through the Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program, which provided 90 percent of the construction funds. The Aviation Department covered the remaining 10 percent of project costs with funds from the California Aid to Airports Program and Passenger Facility Charges. Construction costs were included in the approved fiscal year 2018-2019 Aviation Department Budget, line item 3539170-8890; therefore, this project did not affect the General Fund.
The recommended actions conform to the Board of Supervisors' Core Role of providing and maintaining infrastructure to enhance aviation facilities as identified in the Board's Strategic Framework.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Division of Aeronautics
ALTERNATIVES TO STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Board may choose to not approve the supplemental budget request and to not accept the project. However, staff does not recommend these alternatives because the project has been completed, and the requested Board actions are required to accept the contract.
