Good evening, Vice Mayor Richardson and members of the City Council. This item this evening relates to the acceptance of the Federal Aviation Administration airport improvement grant funds for electrical improvements to airport runway 1230 are main runway at the Long Beach Airport. Runway 1230 is a primary air carrier runway. In early 2020, an airfield lighting investigation was performed in the results recommended replacement of the existing runway lighting and associated equipment due to its age. The need to be and the need to be brought up to current standards and the probability of electrical failures in continual repair. The runway electrical improvements will preserve and enhance safety and will align with the airport's sustainability efforts. The existing fixtures will be replaced with energy efficient LED fixtures. A grant offer from the FAA is pending. The estimated cost of the project is 6.8 million, of which approximately 6.2 million will be federally funded. The airport share of approximately 600,000 will be funded with airport revenue. City Council authorization to accept the grant award is requested this evening so that the grant may be fully processed in the timeframe required by the FAA staff request council approval of the recommended action.

Just that it's great that the airport is continuing to move forward and making progress. Thank you. Gentlemen. Super. Thank you. Thanks for the report. Mr. Rios. I had a question on the construction related to this grant. Is it your anticipation that this would be done overnight in the proximity of runway 30? The Project Council of Super not. The project will consist of some day work, some evening work as well as the closure over approximately three weekends. We are currently in the selection process of a contractor. We anticipate that those bids will be opened mid-March and once we have selected a contractor will begin the process of a schedule and then be able to provide a more detailed schedule for the council and do us and do council briefings as we did with our previous projects. Okay. I would just like to add that our request would be that the contractor is made well aware of the impacts of construction noise in the overnight hours. So we don't have a repeat of what's happened in the past. Thank you. All right. Thank you. Any public comment on this item? There's any members of the public that wish to speak on this item.
