COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
Meeting Date: March 22, 2004
Through: Phil Shealy, City Manager
From: Harbormaster, James B. Beckham
Agenda Item: Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into a New Lease Agreement with
Deborah Altermatt for a Portion of Lot 1, Block 6, Seward Small Boat
Harbor Subdivision.
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
Deborah Altermatt has requested to lease the remaining portion of Lot 1, Block 6, Seward Small
Boat Harbor Subdivision to expand and enhance her business, Sailing, Inc.
The “sliver” has long been an area of discussion and is essentially a small piece of real estate between
the city owned and Alaska Railroad owned uplands. Leasing this small sliver will allow expansion
and enhancement of an existing harbor area business and provide continuity of ownership for
maintenance issues in that area, such as snow removal.
An appraisal is not necessary at this time because the year 2000 reappraised rates from the prior
leases will be continued, and the lease rates will be adjusted in 2005 and each five years thereafter
under the terms of the lease.
1. Comprehensive Plan X
Economic Development, Small Boat Harbor Development: expand and maximize potential of the
existing harbor.
2. Strategic Plan X_
Growth Management and Land Use Planning: Promote residential and commercial development
inside the city
3. Other: Municipal Lands Management Plan X
Leases: …continue to dispose of commercial and industrial lands through long term leases…
Small Boat Harbor Management Plan
Lands: …ensure that existing lease sites are fully developed…
FISCAL NOTE:
Estimated staff and legal time costs to create the new lease is $1,500. This lease will generate
approximately $9,542 ($1.12/sq ft (arrc-city sliver lease) or $1.08(gateway tex lease)) in annual rent.
Approved by Finance Department
RECOMMENDATION:
Council approve Resolution 2004-27, authorizing the CityManager to enter into a new lease
agreement with Deborah Altermatt for a portion of Lot 1, Block 6, Seward Small Boat Harbor
Subdivision.
