Subject: Snow Plowing /Sanding Services Contract at the Kenai
Airport Terminal Building, Kenai Flight Service Station, and
Alaska Fire Training Facility
In January 2010, a Letter of Correction from the FAA Airport Certification Inspector noted the
lack of sufficient qualified personnel to accomplish snow removal operations at the airport
during a mild snow event. Solutions were discussed during the FY11 Airport work sessions
to address this and meet the part 139 requirement that the airport have sufficient qualified
personnel.
At the direction of the City Manager, additional City staff was assigned to be on -call to the
airport for snow removal operations and a bid package was prepared to secure a
plowing /sanding contract for the parking lots at the airport terminal building, Kenai Flight
Service Station, and Alaska Fire Training Facility. The intent is to free -up staff from low
priority parking lot maintenance to allow for the high priority of runway /taxiway /apron plowing
and sanding.
The Invitation to Bid is scheduled to advertise on October 14, 15 and 17. Bid opening is
Monday, October 25, and the contract awarded at the November 3, 2010 Council meeting.
I recommend transferring $10,000 from the Airfield /Overtime account and $15,000 from the
Terminal /Improvements Other Than Buildings account for a total of $25,000 into
M &O /Repairs and Maintenance to cover this contract.
