Included in the Airport's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is the Airport Terminal Building Painting Project.  As you may recall, the concourse areas of the Terminal were repainted last year. This year's project will apply new paint and texture to the walls in baggage claim, the connecting walkway, the airline ticketing lobby, and the mezzanine areas of the Terminal. All work will be performed at night to reduce the impact on the airlines' passenger operations.

In spite of advertising this project for three weeks in the Billings Times and on the City's Web site, only one bid was received.

CONTRACTOR	BASE BID	ALTERNATE ONE	TOTAL BID
	Baggage Claim	Main Hallway & Ticketing

The City Council may:

• Approve the Bid Award for the Airport Terminal Painting Project; or
• Decline to approve the Bid Award, possibly delaying the project.

The total cost of the  Airport Terminal Painting Project is $147,969, and funding for this project is available in the Airport's CIP account.

Staff recommends the City Council approve the Bid Award for the Airport Terminal Painting Project to the sole bidder, High Roller Painting, for the amount of $147,969.  Staff has reviewed the bid and believes it is a reasonable price for this type of work.
