AP1401-TERMINAL REMODEL TO $229,979 SUMMARY: This Ordinance budgets and appropriates additional funds to Capital Project No. AP1401-Terminal Remodel to complete and close the project. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: City Council passed and approved Ordinance No. 8696 on February 10, 2014 establishing Capital Project No. AP1401-Terminal Remodel and budgeting $150,000 to the project. BACKGROUND In 2010, the screening room in the Airport terminal building was expanded for Allegiant Airlines taking up most of the lobby space in the building. Because of this expansion, the lobby and ticket counter areas have been overcrowded during flight times. The first phase of the project was to remodel the offices in the terminal for the TSA and the airline and next phase was to demolish the walls of the previous TSA office in order to open the area up for the ticket counter space. These phases have been completed. The final phase of the project will consist of finishing the ticket counter/baggage intake and surrounding areas. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The total increase to the project will be $79,979. Funds will be transferred from the Customer Deposits Fund to Capital Project AP1401-Terminal Project. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: None STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: None. ALTERNATIVES: If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, funds will not be available to complete the terminal building and it will remain in an unfinished state. RECOMMENDATION The Department of Aviation recommends approval of this Ordinance. Attachments: None
