RESOLUTION 2018-100
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEWARD,
ALASKA, AUTHORIZING THE USE OF SMIC GRANT FUNDS TO PAY
FOR SMIC EXPANSION PROJECT RELATED COSTS
WHEREAS, the Seward City Council has approved of a variety of purchases for the
SMIC project out of grant administrative fees rather than grant construction funds in the amount
of$438,724.50 due to the $25 million scope of the SMIC Expansion Project and staff's concern
there may be insufficient grant funding to cover all project costs; and
WHEREAS, An initial recommendation was made to utilize administrative fees in the
SMIC Fund rather than grant funds, for the purchase and expenses as follows; a loader for
$160,600,Transpac Marinas flexifend hardware for$48,740,expansion of the travel lift dock for
$92,300, heating of the wash-down pad for $50,000, welding services for $34,392, fencing for
$47,000, barge ramp repair for $2,415, and concrete for the wash-down pad for $3,277.50 for a
grand total of $438,724.50 to ensure sufficient grant funding remained to cover the larger
infrastructure and equipment costs; and
WHEREAS, the project is nearing substantial completion on the largest components of
JCconstruction and infrastructure, leaving sufficient remaining grant funds to cover the grant-
eligible costs previously charged to the SMIC Enterprise Fund; and
WHEREAS, the administration requests authorization to charge all grant-eligible costs
related to the SMIC Expansion Grant Project to the grant in order to allow for administrative fees
to be used for other important SMIC Enterprise Fund-related costs.
