Airport Advisory Board | May 7, 2026

The Spanish Fork City Airport Advisory Board met on May 7, 2026, to discuss several procurement and operational matters related to the airport. Key procurement topics included the awarding of a contract to Geneva for the taxiway Bravo project, supported by $3 million in state funding, with additional grant applications underway for future phases. The board also reviewed the airport's budget status, noting capital projects such as a $240,000 power relocation and ongoing hangar and electrical equipment improvements. Additionally, the board discussed a new commercial operator, Elemental Aviation, seeking approval to conduct aircraft rentals, sales, and maintenance at the airport, with a motion passed to approve their business operations excluding requested tie-down installations pending further site plan review. Another significant procurement action involved preparing an RFP for a 5-year on-call airport engineering services contract, with a selection process scheduled to conclude by August 2026. The board also addressed a lease amendment request from Flight Academy, ultimately denying the proposed changes to maintain consistency across airport leases. Overall, the meeting focused on contract awards, budget updates, vendor approvals, and planning for future capital and engineering projects at the airport.
