Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The Airport has requested $35,000 to build a security fence on the west side of the airport near West Plainfield Fire Station and Lillard Hall. The security fence would prevent individuals from entering airport property and accessing an active runway and taxiway. Due to the lack of security in this area, individuals, including children, have been witnessed on airport property, riding their bikes on the runway and climbing on aircraft. Installation of the security fence will prevent airport access and prevent the potential for serious injury.
The County received four proposals for the fence addition:
Contractor |
Quote |
Pisor |
$25,492 |
Crusader |
$26,736 |
Arrow |
$27,656 |
Fencecorp |
$30,456 |
In addition to the contract, a contingency will be necessary. General Services staff will be managing the project and will charge their time to the Airport and the project manager has indicated a need for $2,000 for an underground locator to check under the fence line for wires and/or piping. The total estimated cost is $35,000.
Staff recommends approval of the resolution transferring funds and awarding the contract to Pisor. |
