With the price tag on extensive renovations to the Jeppesen Terminal at Denver International Airport growing, Denver City Council will have the final say on how the project will move forward — but it wants a little more time.
Although the full council was supposed to vote on four contracts for the Great Hall renovation project today, January 3, councilmembers Kevin Flynn and Debbie Ortega plan to introduce a motion to postpone the vote; rule 3.7 of the council's rules of procedures provides for an automatic one-week delay on contracts and certain other resolutions on the request of a member.
Flynn thinks that council needs more time to talk about the proposal. "The bottom line is, we can’t leave the airport half done, but why does it cost this much?" asks Flynn, who chairs the council's Business, Arts, Workforce and Aviation Services Committee.
