Amount of this request:
$500,000

ACTION REQUESTED
Request Commission authorization for the Executive Director to increase funding for the Interim
Westside Fire Station project, at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, by $500,000, for a new
total of $10,888,000, to settle all claims and close out the project.
SUMMARY
Construction of the Interim Westside Fire Station at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is
complete, and the station is in use. Additional budget in the amount of $500,000 is now required
to settle all construction claims and close out the project.
The Interim Westside Fire Station project established a stand-alone, fully functional fire station
on the west side of the airfield to meet Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) mandated airfield
firefighting requirements. In April 2022, this project reached substantial completion for
construction of the design-build contract 18 months later than planned. Subsequent
modifications to the building were required and with these completed, in May 2023 the Fire
Department began use of the facility. As part of the project close out process, all contractor
claims have been settled.
