In plain language — from agenda source text
This item authorizes a contract with COBUS LLC for two tarmac transport buses at Austin-Bergstrom, the shuttles that ferry passengers between terminal doors and planes parked away from a gate. With ABIA's passenger counts stretching its existing gates, the ground fleet is part of how the airport keeps people moving. The contract is capped at $1,299,500, paid from Austin Aviation's Capital Budget.
