Apron Area 3 Pavement Project
Mr. Rafter received a call from MASSDOT offering$800,000 to fix the rutting and add another
hardstand for Apron Area 3. The construction estimate is between$500,000 and$700,000,and
the engineering estimate is between $100,000 and$200,000. The top priorities were identified, so
that the project could be put in as alternates. Mr. Rafter explained the concrete work that would
be completed and the construction of a hardstand for the new 5th position. The airport would have
to pay 5%($40,000)of the$800,000. The Finance Dept. will approach the Town Manager about
a technical amendment to the 2018 capital budget, because it will be quickly reimbursed. If all
pay recs are into the state by May 15, 2019,they will have final payment to the Airport by June
306. Otherwise the Airport will face a severe penalty. There will be a full-time engineering rep
from Jacobs on the job for this project.Jacobs is working on developing a safety program for the
pavement project that has to be coordinated closely with the Temporary Hold Room project..
because they are in the same area. With multiple projects taking place at the same time on the
Airfield, Mr. Karberg, Assistant Airport Manager,has been assigned the project manager for the
Temporary Hold Room, Mr. Rafter will be the Project Manager for the Apron Area 3 Pavement
Project, and John Grangrade, Maintenance Superintendent, will be the Project Manager for the
Runway 6-24 Markings.
Ms. Topham asked what effect this project will have on the airfield. Mr. Rafter explained that that
sections of the ramp will be closed and we will work around it until the work is complete.
Having no further business,Mr. Gasbarro made a Motion to adjourn. Second by Ms. Topham
and Passed unanimously by the following roll-call vote:
Ms. Topham-Aye
Mr. Gasbarro-Aye
Ms. Planzer-Aye
