HomeMy WebLinkAbout9/15/1999 - STAFF REPORTS (12) DATE: September 15, 1999 TO: City Council FROM: Assistant City Manager-Operations AIRLINE REQUESTS-TERMINAL EXPANSION-BUDGET APPROPRIATION RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that City Council appropriate Airport funds to replenish construction dollars utilized to meet airline requests during construction. BACKGROUND: The Airport Terminal construction project has progressed well during the summer and is still ahead of schedule, heading toward a November 4, 1999, completion. As the project has proceeded, Airport staff has worked closely with the Airline Technical Committee (airline architects&engineers)to ensure their needs are met through the construction project. The airline mix, technology and the economy have all changed since the original design was completed. Through the course of construction, the airlines have requested several changes/addidons, which have resulted in change orders approved under the Council's previous 5% of construction cost change order authorization. They are: 1. Add podiums @ Gates 2&3 $48,947 2. Add electronics @ Gates 2&3 26,709 3. Add boarding card readers 24,350 $100,006 The change order contingency was not established to cover added equipment. For that reason it is requested the City Council take two actions: 1. First, approve a Budget Amendment to appropriate$100,006 for the Airport fund to replenish the Construction Contingency Account. 2. Second, ratify the above three change orders so they no longer count against the 5%change order authority previously granted by City Council. There are adequate funds available in the Airport fund reserves. Two Resolutions are attached for City Council consideration. ALLEN F.
