3.B. Airport Box Hangar status activity 
Discussion:
City Administrator Tom Ourada explained that Casper who was the low bid stated that they made a mistake on their bid and they wanted $82,000 more. The Fire Marshall stated that the hanger wall needs to be redone. Casper stated they would not be rebidding if there has to be a new bid. The project cost went down 5% because Casper has forfeited their bid bond which is about $56,000. The City will be going with the second-lowest bid from BD Construction and it will still be a 95-5 project. This is going through FAA and the State.
