ROCHELLE — City officials are moving forward on plans for the airport taxiway rehabilitation following Monday evening’s approval by Rochelle city council members.
The approval authorizes the execution of agreements with Hanson Professional Services, Inc. for the design and construction phases of the project not to exceed $37,100.
Economic development director Jason Anderson explained IDOT has determined the taxiway used to access four hangar rows will need the rehabilitation.
“The Federal and State will fund 95 percent of this approximately $335,000 project,” Anderson said. “The city’s five percent share for this project will be $16,750 and has been included and approved in the 2019 budget.”
Anderson indicated another engineering firm has been chosen for the runway rehabilitation based on qualifications through a request for proposal process.
