Turner Construction Co. should handle day-to-day operations of the $512 million expansion and refurbishment of John Wayne Airport, the Orange County Airport Commission decided Wednesday evening.
County supervisors will consider the issue March 7.
The airport director would negotiate a contract with Turner and return to the supervisors for approval.
John Wayne's 15-year-old, 440,000-square-foot terminal will add 300,000 square feet. The number of permanent gates will go from 14 to 20, and a 2,500-slot parking lot will be built with other improvements. Construction, to begin this year, will take five years.
