Title
Discussion and action regarding Airport Obstruction Removal
Body
SUMMARY: Bids were solicited twice for tree obstruction removal for the airport glide slope. One bid was received from the second bid-letting. It is for a total of $381,985. The City can opt to apply for a grant, which would take approximately 24 months to complete the entire project with the first year, after grant award, being utilized for required environmental work. This would affect the Airport Layout Plan for the next two years; however, these grants typically cover 95 percent of the cost. Applying for the grant would require letting the project for bid again at a later date according to grant parameters and could possibly garner no bids.
