Date:


by James Coulter

 

The Lake Wales Municipal Airport is one step closer to having its taxilane reconstructed now that the City of Lake Wales has authorized a contract agreement.

At their regular meeting on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, Lake Wales city commissioners voted unanimously to approve its consent agenda. One of the agenda items involved authorizing a contract agreement for reconstruction at the municipal airport.

The contract agreement will be made with CW Roberts, Inc. for the T-Hangar Taxilane Reconstruction and Taxilane Bravo Rehabilitation project.

According to the city agenda memo: “This project will reconstruct the taxilane that connects our t-hangars to the taxiway. It will also rehabilitate taxilane bravo that connects our FBO ramp to the taxiway.”

The cost of the agreement, which amounts to $871,65, will be funded 10 percent by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and 90 percent by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
