Clerk of Commission Public Service Committee Meeting 10/9/2006 12:30 PM Change Order Resolution Extension Department:Augusta Regional Airport Caption:Motion to approve Resolution to extend limited authority to approve change orders. Background:The City of Augusta through the Augusta Aviation Commission is building a new airline passenger terminal. This is a thirty month project, costing $25,000,000.00. Any change order to this project requires approval of both the Aviation Commission and the Augusta Commission. The normal agenda approval process requires approximately 4 weeks. Analysis:This resolution would extend the Aviation Commission limited authority to approve change orders only to the New Terminal Construction Project contract. Under this resolution, change order approval is limited to $50,000.00 per change order, with a cumulative total per year of $750,000.00. Change orders of a greater amount would still require approval of the Augusta Commission. The first resolution was approved by the Augusta Commission on October 18, 2005. This agenda item requests an extension of time for this policy until December 31, 2007 which coincides with the project completion. Financial Impact:Under the current approval process, the time required to gain approval of a change order may cause delays in construction and could in turn add costs and time to the construction project. Alternatives:Deny request. Recommendation:Approve request. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: N/A REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Finance. Administrator. Clerk of Commission A RESOLUTION TO PROVIDE FOR A FIRST EXTENSION OF THE DELEGATION OF LIMITED AUTHORITY TO THE AUGUSTA AVIATION COMMISSION TO FINALLY APPROVE AUGUSTA REGIONAL AIRPORT TERMINAL CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT CHANGE ORDERS (CONTRACT WITH MCKNIGHT CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, INC., CONTRACT NO. _______) Whereas, the Augusta Aviation Commission has been authorized by the Augusta-Richmond County Commission to “take charge of Bush Field Airport” (now known as Augusta Regional Airport) and “to take all steps necessary toward constructing, improving and repairing the Airport now owned and to be owned by Augusta-Richmond County including the construction, alternation and repair of airport buildings and the removal, lowering, marking and lighting of airport of obstructions.” See Augusta Code Section 1-3-5; and Whereas, the Augusta Aviation Commission is expressly authorized to “put into operation facilities to raise additional revenue in connection with such airport; and such facilities may be operated by the Augusta Aviation Commission or leased to responsible parties”; and Whereas, any contract undertaken pursuant to Augusta Code Section 1-3-5 cannot exceed one (1) year in duration without further approval of the Augusta-Richmond County Commission. Now therefore, in light of the powers and authority referred to above and the desire of the Augusta-Richmond County Commission and the Augusta Aviation Commission to decrease the amount of time necessary to process change orders in the administration of the terminal construction contract with McKnight, the Augusta-Richmond County Commission hereby grants and the Augusta Aviation Commission expressly accepts final authority to consider and decide all change order requests submitted by the contractor on this project provided that a copy of each request shall be submitted to the Administrator for Augusta-Richmond County and further provided that any individual change order request shall not propose an increase in the contract price in excess of $50,000.00 and shall not exceed when considered in light of any previous request(s) the accumulated value of $750,000.00 during this first extension period commencing October 1, 2006 and ending December 31, 2007. This delegation of authority shall also include authority to grant extensions of the contract time. Under authority of this Resolution when finally adopted by the Augusta Aviation Commission and the Augusta-Richmond County Commission, all requests for change orders meeting the criteria set forth herein shall not be submitted to the Augusta-Richmond County Commission or its Committees. The Augusta-Richmond County Commission reserves the rights to revoke this Resolution, with or without cause and at any time; provided however, such revocation shall not take effect until the Augusta-Richmond County Commission has given the Augusta Aviation Commission or the Augusta Regional Airport Director’s office thirty (30) days written notice of the revocation of this delegation of authority, said date to be calculated from the date of mailing or hand delivery by the Clerk of the Augusta Commission of written notice revoking this delegation of authority.

Background:In 2005, two claims for code violations were submitted against Mr. Trimble's surety bond. Both claims were approved and paid. Mr. Trimble could not renew his business license for 2006 until he renewed the surety bond. He submitted the renewed bond on July 21, 2006. However, the business license was not renewed at that time because of an active complaint against Mr. Trimble, and the business license has yet to be issued because of continued complaints against Mr. Trimble.... On June 22, 2006 I received a complaint against Mr. Trimble for not completing a building project that he was paid for, and that he started without a permit. On July 24, 2006 I received complaints against Mr. Trimble from two property owners who claimed they paid Mr. Trimble for work (removal of trees) that he did not complete. On August 23, 2006 I received a complaint against Mr. Trimble from a property owner who claimed she paid him for work (removal of trees) that he did not complete. On August 25, 2006 I received a complaint against Mr. Trimble from a property owner who also claimed he paid Mr. Trimble for work (removal of trees) that was not completed. Analysis:In accordance with Augusta-Richmond County Code § 2-1- 38, a business license may be denied, suspended, or revoked only after a hearing before the Commission.... The business license is recommended to be denied for the following reason. § 2-1-38(5) The applicant or holder of the certificate during the twelve (12) months next preceding has engaged in misrepresentation of facts, whether through advertisement or through any form of direct communication, oral or written, which is intended to mislead the public or any party with whom the holder of the certificate deals in pursuance of the registered business. The term misrepresentation of fact as used herein shall embrace not only express misrepresentations, but also misrepresentations arising by virtue of the conduct of the holder of this certificate, including acts of omissions. By way of illustration only, and without limiting the scope of this subsection, due cause as herein defined shall consist of any act or practice designated as unlawful in sections 393(b)(1) through (b)(29) of the Fair Business Practices Act found in O.C.G.A. § 10-1-390 et seq.

Clerk of Commission Public Service Committee Meeting 10/9/2006 12:30 PM Federal Aviation Administration MOA Department:Augusta Regional Airport Caption:Motion to approved Federal Aviation Administration Memorandum of Agreement regarding no-cost navigational aids for the Airport. Background:The airport currently has several leases with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regarding navigational aids that are necessary for airport operation. The FAA is responsible for these NAVAIDS and maintains them at no cost to the airport. These leases must be reviewed and updated constantly. Analysis:In the interest of saving both time and money, the FAA has decided to use the new format of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) which covers NAVAID facilities installed by the FAA and contains similar terms and conditions provided under the existing no-cost land leases. Financial Impact:This document will only apply to Navigational Aids that are currently addressed under on-airport, no-cost land leases. Alternatives:Deny request. Recommendation:Approve request.
