WORKSHOP ITEMS - NO ACTION WASTAKEN Airport Fiber Installation Project - Phase Three Operations Manager Monroe Whitman reviewed Phase Three ofthe fiberinstallation project. Lot 304 is located on Airport property north ofSR 531 (172nd St.) and 43rd Ave. intersection (the property immediately northwest of Weston High School.) PGF LLC. is the project manager of the lease and, unfortunately, due to significant setbacks as outlined in the attachment, has requested that Airport staff terminate their lease and waive the 2025 lease payment of $67,937.35 and associated costs. Fiber installation will improve internet service and security for airport tenants and businesses located on the field. Continuing to install fiber throughout the airport will improve operations for businesses that remain or relocate to the Arlington Municipal Airport. See exhibit for route of the fiber installation. The City's IT Department will fund a portion of this project as it aligns with the City's long- term fiber installation objectives. Additionally, several airport projects are no longer necessary, which allows staff to roll over these operational funds to cover the new price of this project.
