DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On November 21, 2023, the Board approved an agreement with Hoyle Tanner & Associates, Inc. to provide engineering and consulting services for Marion County Airport’s parallel taxiways. This is a grant funded project through the FAA (90% match funding), FDOT (8% match funding), and local (2% match funding). Due to the grant funding regulations, the Construction Engineering Inspection (CEI) services for Phase II of Taxiway A and B would need to be brought back to the Board for approval once construction is ready to begin.
This first contract amendment requests approval to allow Hoyle Tanner & Associates to conduct CEI services for the Construction of Taxiway A, which is a parallel taxiway to the current 05-23 runway. The full parallel taxiway eliminates the need for aircraft to back-taxi on an active runway after landing or before takeoff. The CEI services will consist of project administration, construction administration, and resident engineering services.
Attached for review is a draft of the contract. Upon approval at today’s meeting, it will be sent to Hoyle Tanner & Associates, Inc. for signatures. Once returned, it will be forwarded to Legal, the Clerk, and Chairman for signatures.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral; project cost is $438,414. Funding is from BQ415542-563101 (Marion County Airport Fund)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Recommended action
Motion to approve recommendation and allow staff to issue the contract. Upon approval by Legal, authorize the Chairman and Clerk to execute the contract with Hoyle Tanner & Associates, Inc., under 23Q-163-CA-01.
