Georgetown airport planning upgrades to infrastructure through 2023
The city of Georgetown will host a pre-proposal meeting on February 16 for architectural and design services for the construction of an airport maintenance facility.
At 10 a.m. CST, the city will conduct a virtual conference to present its plans to design and construct a new airport maintenance facility with an additional area for covered storage on city-owned property at Georgetown Municipal Airport.
The city is seeking a facility that provides adequate space for existing staff, improved operational efficiency, improved security for staff, and efficient operational and maintenance expenses through the incorporation of energy efficient or sustainable design elements. In addition, the facility must allow for adequate parking for staff, improved service, flexibility, and direction to accommodate future growth.
Future projects at the airport are scheduled for rehabilitation of Taxiway A1 in 2022 and 2023 and the relocation of the airport’s Automated Weather Observing System in 2023 to move it away from taxiways and the possibility of damage.
