The Naples Airport Authority’s Board of Commissioners voted 4-0 to award contracts to Curran Young Construction, Garland and Schenkel Schultz for Phase II of renovation work at the North Road Terminal. 

Phase I was recently completed and included exterior work to the North Road Terminal, including hardening the building envelope for better protection against future storms, updated canopies, site work and landscaping.

Phase II includes renovations to the lobby, waiting areas, car rental spaces and grab-n-go cafe, as well as interior finishes, furnishings, air conditioning systems and roof repairs.

At its Dec. 18 meeting, the NAA board approved a total project cost not to exceed $4,409,761 and awarded the contract to Curran Young Construction and Garland. Additionally, the board approved a contract with Schenkel Schultz for construction administration and design not to exceed $136,080.

This marks the first major improvements to the North Road Terminal since it was originally constructed in 1983. The facility is currently home to JSX, which offers scheduled public charter service to White Plains, N.Y., NetJets private jet services and several rental car companies.

Funds for the project derive from airport revenues. Naples Airport receives no local taxpayer support; it is a self-sustaining entity funded primarily through fuel sales, rentals and other related services.

The estimated completion date for Phase II at the North Road Terminal is December 2026.

The Dec. 18 board meeting marked the first time new member Michelle Arnold attended. Arnold was appointed to the board earlier this month and will serve a four-year term. At the end of the meeting, Ralph Alberto was sworn in as a new board member to serve a four-year term.
