City Of Brewster

City Of Brewster, doing business as Public Works, is a municipal government entity based in Brewster, Washington that receives federal infrastructure grants as a prime recipient, with no federal contract work. The City operates as a U.S. local government and has been awarded $15.5 million across 19 federal grants since 2008, with the most recent award in May 2026.

The City's grant footprint centers on airport infrastructure and rural water systems. The top customer by award count is the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Northwest Mountain Region, which has issued ten awards totaling airport improvement and construction work at Brewster Municipal Airport. Representative grants include a $348,810.53 formula grant under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116) awarded May 26, 2026 for pavement rehabilitation—resealing and resurfacing 29,000 square yards of central apron pavement and 4,000 feet of Runway 7/25—with an ultimate completion date of May 25, 2030. A June 9, 2023 project grant from FAA funds the final phase of taxiway and taxilane construction (east taxilane, parallel taxiway A, and west taxilane, each 500 feet, plus reconfiguration of connecting taxiway) with ultimate completion in June 2027; this grant funds 73 percent of the total project, paired with a Bipartisan Infrastructure Law airport infrastructure grant covering the remainder. An August 18, 2022 formula grant for $115,830 supported the design phase of taxiway reconfiguration work through August 17, 2026. The City also received a $3.3 million project grant from the Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service under the Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program (CFDA 10.760) on May 13, 2022 to support potable water infrastructure; that grant was scheduled for completion in May 2024. A sixth grant from FAA awarded August 5, 2021 provided economic relief under the American Rescue Plan Act and Coronavirus Relief and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act for airport operations, personnel, cleaning, and sanitization costs through August 4, 2025.

The City has received one sub-award for wastewater improvements (November 18, 2021).
