Mora Munici~l~irport The City of Mcra had previously completed an Environmental Impact Assessment R~Po~t for Airport improvements. In 1982 the planning for a 75 x 40001~ru~way 17-35 was. undertaken. .The planned alignment of the runway c~ossed three ma]or peat areas Including a sizeable wetland. ~D~ing pre-design studies, it ~as determined that a savings of over $300~00Q by shifting the runway 100' to the could be realized east. The Pr~liminary cost estimate and engineering report for the preapplicat!~? Was based on this concept. Airport layout and zoning plans were r~vi~ed and a supplemental.e~v~ronmental assessment report was preparedi!an4 approved. Land acquisition was completed by September. ! i . STS advised ~n specific earthwork techniques and design alternatives for the peat iar~as. Design documents were prepared and the project let for a fail ~983 construction start. Surcharge over the peat areas was left in~la=e for a year. Finish grading ~nd paving of the 4000 ~ ' ' ' l runway and o~nnecting taxiways were completed in 1985. Fairmont Mu~ci~al Airport The C%ty of ~ai~mont was awarded a preliminary FAA AIP allocation but the City was ire~uested to submit further preliminary planning relative to scope and~cO~t of proposed project work. Within 45 days beginning in August 1983,'ithe project scope was defined and cost estimates prepared so ~he~iCity could accept the AIP grant. Design documents were prepare~ a~d bids let in the Spring of 1984. The project included a new!Passenger terminal, a crash-fire-rescue building, ramp, taxiways andiiau%o parking with a project cost of about.$900,O00.. Johnson-FOrberglAssociates, Ericksen Ellison and Associates and Soil Testing SerVices were members of. the project team. Corporate H&~ga~ Complex for Van Dusen Airport' Services,' Van Dusen de~irgd to construct a hangar/office complex to be used as rental space ~fo~ corporate aircraft-o.wners. It was determined that the best approa~ f~r Van Dusen was a design-build contract. A site plan layout was 4~eioped and bidding documents prepared for a design-build proposal. '~dS}were solicited from four bUild,rs, and a contract was negotiated ,~thlithe selected bidder. ~he bidding documents essen- tially defi~d.~he project as to locatlon on site, clearances, interior bu~di~g .layout (25,000 sqUarel fo°t hangar plus offi?e space), max~iireqUirements as to' aircraft.weight and size, interior finishes, e~.,iii!in order to get comparable bids. In addition, design documents we~e.Drepared for the aircraft ramp, taxiways and auto parking areas ~This $950,000 project was completed in 1984.
