Council Agenda Statement '°f sett,
Meeting Date: September 13, 2010 = 4
Through: City Manager, Phillip Oates N� '
From: Community Development, Director Christy Terry 4 c 4S.o"
Agenda Item: Transferring Rental Funds for Library/Museum
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
Since 2003, the City of Seward, Seward Community Library Association and the Resurrection Bay
Historical Society have been planning to co- locate the Community Library and the Seward Museum
to a new facility. Co- location will create efficiencies of service and space as well as providing the
amount of space needed to meet the existing and future needs of these organizations.
In December 2006, the City of Seward purchased the six city lots east of the library as the future site
of the Seward Community Library Museum. At time of purchase the existing buildings on the
property were occupied by Ray Weaver of Ray's Reusables, who then rented the facility from the
City for the amount of $500 per month. The final total funds in the reserve account are $12,579.79.
There is additional rent money in account no. 3042 -0004 that totals $13,500 which should be
included in the transfer of funds to the project.
The project is moving forward with preliminary demolition testing, demolition and site preparation
plans. These funds will be utilized for contractors to complete this work. All purchases will be
completed in compliance with the Seward City Code's Title 6 Purchasing, Contracts and
Professional Services.
INTENT: Rental funds were placed into a reserve account until they were needed for development
and construction of the Seward Community Library Museum. Additional funds from 2007 and 2008
were placed into account 101- 0000 - 3042 -0004. This resolution will move these funds into the
Library Museum Contracted Services Account for demolition and site preparation. Remaining funds
will be utilized for the project and/or if additional funds are required, they will be taken as necessary
to complete the work from the Library/Museum Fund Account. The larger project budget continues
to be developed within the Design and Construction Document phases for Estimating.
CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST: Where applicable, this resolution is consistent with the Seward
City Code, Charter, Comprehensive Plans, Land Use Plans, Strategic Plan and City Council Rules of
Procedures.
FISCAL NOTE: Funds are appropriated from the Seward Community Library Museum Reserve
account no. 101 -0- 2040 -0150 and account no. 101- 0000 - 3042 -0004 to the Library Museum
contracted services account no. 626 -626X -5390. Approved by Finance Department:
