Bolingbrook Board Approves Clow International Airport Projects

BOLINGBROOK, IL — Several projects at Bolingbrook Clow International Airport were approved at Tuesday's Bolingbrook Village Board meeting.

The Board approved payment of local matching funds for the construction of a rotating beacon and parallel taxiway and approved a proposal for professional services for the locally constructed box aircraft hangar.

D. Construction, Inc., was selected as the low bidder for the rotating beacon and parallel taxiway project.

Mayor Mary Alexander-Basta said that project is part of the IDOT multi-year program.

"IDOT will cover 90 percent of the project cost of the construction of the replacement of the rotating beacon and parallel taxiway at Bolingbrook's Clow Airport," Alexander-Basta said.

The Village is responsible for 10 percent of project costs, not to exceed $224,527.24

The proposal for the aircraft hangar will be done by Kimley Horn, which will do the design and bid services for the project, at a cost not to exceed $35,600, according to Board documents.

"The Village previously had put a twin hangar project out to bid, but the cost came in over budget," Alexander-Basta said. The scope of work was reduced to a single hangar design.
