AGENDA MEMORANDUM

 

Meeting Date:           February 12, 2007

 

From:                          Charlie Weller, Airport Manager

 

Subject:                      Resolution authorizing Work Order No. 6 with The MEA Group, Inc. for engineering and design of general aviation ramp space at Leesburg International Airport

 

Staff Recommendation:

Staff recommends approval of Work Order No. 6 with The MEA Group for general aviation ramp space engineering and design.

 

Analysis:

The City received a grant from the Florida Department of Transportation for the design of approximately 60,000 additional square feet of general aviation ramp space.  Additional ramp space is needed to accommodate larger aircraft, especially when more than two arrive at Leesburg International at the same time.

 

Work Order No. 6 from MEA Group, Inc. is for the design of the additional ramp space.  Once the design is completed and approved by FDOT, funding for construction will become available after July 1, 2007. 

 

Options:

1.  Approve Work Order No. 6 with MEA Group, Inc.

2.  Other action the Commission deems appropriate.

 

Fiscal Impact:

The total project cost including design and construction is estimated to be $750,000.00.  The FY 05/06 budget included funding of $360,000.00 for ramp space. Those funds will be rolled into FY 06/07 to be used for this project.  The balance of $390,000.00 will be moved from the “Ramp Area to Cracker Barrel” project as that project will not be constucted this year because FDOT will not provide funding for it at this time.  A budget amendment will be required for this transfer.
