AGENDA ITEM WORDING:
Approval to barter dirt for taxiway work at the Key West International Airport.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
ITEM BACKGROUND:
Due to the increased weight of the 737s, some of our taxi lane pavement is
th
deteriorating. On June 6 we received bids to rebuild the aprons for Taxi Lanes, A9, A10, and A11. Bella
Construction bid $23,645 per taxi lane apron, and Toppino bid $18,000 each. We accepted Toppino’s low bid
and they have completed one of the three aprons. Last month the BOCC approved an agreement to settle a
Toppino $72,588 debt on the new terminal for 12,098 yards of surplus dirt valued at $6.00 per yard.
The Toppino firm now requests that we barter all of the taxi lane work (3X $18,000=$54,000) at the same $6.00
per yard price so that they can obtain an additional 9,000 yards of our surplus fill left over from the RSA
project.
If this is approved we will still have 14,000 yards of fill for other county and or airport projects if needed.
