RESOLUTION 2000-086
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SEWARD, ALASKA, that:
Section 1. For the reasons set forth herein, and the above recitals, the City Council finds it
in the public interest to dispose by long-term lease, a strip ofland ten (10) feet in width located along
the south boundary of the North Harbor Parking Lot, Tract A, Block 1, North Harbor Subdivision,
in order to mitigate existing safety concerns associated with the adjacent property currently leased
to James T. Pruitt by Lease 84-043. The disposal method is to be through sole source negotiation
with James T. Pruitt by amending the long-term lease authorized by Resolution 2000-076, subject to
negotiations by the City Manager and final approval by the City Council at a later date.
Section 2. The City Council finds that it is in the public interest to negotiate the lease
amendment described in this resolution without completing a City appraisal because an appraisal of
the adjacent City leased property was completed in March, 2000 by MacSwain Associates in order
to determine the fair market value of the land, and the lease site as amended will be reappraised in five
years for lease rate adjustment purposes.
Section 3. The City Manager is authorized to negotiate on behalf of the City, an amendment
to the long-term lease authorized by Resolution 2000-076 with James T. Pruitt, for the purpose of
expanding the lease site to include a strip of land ten (10) feet in width located along the south
boundary of the North Harbor Parking Lot, Tract A, Block 1, North Harbor Subdivision, subject to
further consideration and final approval by the City Council at a later date. This resolution shall not
be considered the final approval of a real estate transaction or approval of the actual lease
amendment. It is intended the City Manager will negotiate the terms of the lease amendment for the
City Council's subsequent consideration and approval and that any subsequent resolution to approve
such an agreement not take effect until 30 days after passage and posting as required by Seward City
Code ~7.05.140.
Section 4. This resolution shall take effect immediately.
PASSED AND APPROVED by the City C9uncil of the city of Seward, Alaska, this 14th day
