WHEREAS, certain portions of Railway Avenue are in need of replacement as part of the

WHEREAS, The SeaLife Center paving contractor, Frontier Paving, will be on-site this
week to pave the SeaLife Center parking lots and the section of Railway Avenue removed during

the Alaska SeaLife Center; and
WHEREAS, only one street closure will be required if the paving is completed as one
expanded project; and
WHEREAS, Frontier Paving has bid the project at a cost of $76,502 plus a contingency of
$7,650,20; and
WHEREAS, The SeaLife Center will contribute $50,000 toward the expansion project.
WHEREAS, the SeaLife Center currently owes the City of Seward $39,342,25 for its portion
of the underground utility project and has requested a waiver of the reimbursement to the City

Paving for an amount not to exceed $76,502 plus a contingency amount of $7,650,20 for a total

CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA
RESOLUTION NO. 97-098
Section 3. The sum of $50,000 is hereby appropriated from the Alaska SeaLife Center to
the Capital Acquisition Fund Miscellaneous Revenue Railway Paving Account No, 103-0000-4880-
0490-0103A; the sum of not to exceed $34,152.20 is hereby appropriated from the General Fund
Fund Balance Account No, 101-0000-3050 to the Capital Acquisition fund operating transfers in
Account No.1 03-0000-3070-0000; and the sum of $84, 152.20 is hereby appropriated to the Capital
Acquisition Fund Contract Services Account No, 103-1030-5390-0103A.
Section 4. The City Council finds that the public interest would be best served by not
requiring competitive bids/proposals because it is believed that the paving can be procured at a cost
when the contractor and its equipment and personnel are already on site in the City for the adjoining
Sea Life Center project. It will be cost effective to utilize the same contractor to complete the paving
as an expanded project and only one street closure will be required, This will also avoid unnecessary
delays in completing the work during the City's busy summer season,
Section 5. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.
PASSED AND APPROVED by the City Council of the city of Seward, Alaska, this 27 day
ofJune, 1997.
