Report
Summary
The Contracts provide labor and specialized equipment to remove paint and rubber buildup on airfield pavement surfaces. Passenger volume at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (Airport) continues to grow, which results in increased aircraft takeoffs and landings that lead to great amount of rubber deposits on the runways and taxiways. Rubber accumulation on pavement reduces friction and must be timely removed to maintain safe airfield operations. The additional funds will allow a higher frequency of paint and rubber removal services, as the Aviation Director deems appropriate, therefore ensuring the Airport remains in compliance with Federal Aviation Administration regulations and maintains the safety of the traveling public.
Contract Term
The terms of the Contracts remain unchanged and will expire on December 5, 2028.
Financial Impact
Upon approval of $700,000 in additional funds, the revised aggregate cost of the Contracts will not exceed $1.7 million. Funds are available in the Aviation Department's budget.
