Summary
The commission added a proposed exterior improvement project for Pulliam (Permian) Airport terminal to the five‑year plan after staff outlined a hardscape and landscape scope and estimated costs around $700,000; commissioners asked for coordination with ongoing terminal planning and noted potential engineering complexities.
Staff presented a proposed exterior improvement for the Pulliam Airport terminal that would focus on terminal exterior hardscape, patio areas and surrounding landscape. The scope discussed included potential features such as seating/patios and an animal relief area; staff estimated the project would likely cost about $700,000.
Commissioners and staff discussed how the proposed improvements would relate to longer‑term terminal planning and expansion; staff said interior improvements were already underway and that the proposed exterior work would not conflict with currently discussed expansion concepts. Airport capital‑projects staff offered project‑management assistance.
Commissioners noted the potential for surprises and higher costs when renovating airport exteriors due to security and utility constraints and indicated the $700,000 estimate is reasonable as a planning figure. The commission moved and approved adding the Pulliam Airport terminal exterior improvements to the commission’s five‑year plan by voice vote.
