COMMISSION
DATE: January 22, 2017
TO: Dave Soike, Interim Executive Director
FROM: Wendy Reiter, Director Aviation Security
Wayne Grotheer, Director Aviation Project Management
SUBJECT: Airport Terminal Safety and Security Enhancements (CIP #C800862)
Total estimated project cost:
ACTION REQUESTED
Request Commission authorizations for the Executive Director to (1) proceed with the design
and preparation of contract bid documents for Phase II of the Airport Terminal Safety and
Security Enhancements (TSE) project for $1,481,000 for a revised total project authorization of
$7,789,000 for both phases.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Phase II will install: 1) additional security and safety features in the Main Terminal and Parking
Garage; and 2) access ramps along both curbsides to meet current Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) standards. An existing Architect Services Indefinite Delivery/ Indefinite Quantity
(IDIQ) service agreement will be utilized to direct the design services. Staff will return later in
2018 for authorization to advertise, award and execute the construction contract for Phase II.
Phase I of the TSE project was previously authorized by the Commission on October 24, 2017.
JUSTIFICATION
Proceeding with Phase II of the TSE program will continue to keep the occupants of the Main
Terminal safe. Installing ADA compliant access improvements for disabled travelers on both the
Arrivals and Departures curbsides as part of the security work ensures that the design is
compatible. These improvements support the Port’s goal of making SeaTac the most accessible
airport in the nation for people with disabilities.
DETAILS
Current ADA standards require the provision of one accessible loading zone for every
continuous 100 linear feet, or fraction thereof, of curbside. Each accessible loading zone shall
be designated with signage along both curbsides. Accessible loading areas on the drives are
