Rehabilitation of the crosswind runway at the Hays Regional Airport will be reviewed by Hays City Commissioners during their meeting tonight.

City staff is recommending the low bid from National Sealant & Concrete, Wisconsin, for $651,672. It is contingent upon Federal Aviation Administration grant funding.

According to Hays Assistant City Manager Paul Briseno, approximately 90 percent of the cost would be reimbursed by the FAA, with the city responsible for the remaining 10 percent.

All the National Sealant & Concrete bids are below the engineer’s estimates.

Other agenda items include an extension of allowable watering hours for newly seeded warm season lawns, which requires a permit, and a resolution authorizing the sale of general obligation bonds for completed improvements in the Golden Belt Estates 5th Addition and the 46th Street 2nd Addition.

The meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. tonight in Hays City Hall.
