The East General Aviation Apron was constructed in the 1980’s and is located adjacent to the main terminal building where a variety of aircraft and airline charters utilize the apron as a parking location upon their arrival into Yakima. The apron consists of approximately 29,400 square yards of asphalt and requires rehabilitation in order to meet Federal Aviation Administration safety standards. JUB Engineering, Inc. will assist the airport with project formulation, design, bidding services, and submission of grant application in order to receive Federal assistance to rehabilitate the apron in 2021.
Total cost to provide initial engineering services is $169,730.00 where the FAA will cover 90 percent in the form of a grant and the remaining 10 percent from the Passenger Facility Charge program. Grant funds will be available during federal fiscal year 2021 along with entitlement and discretionary funds in the amount of $2.4 million to complete construction activities. |
