From: Norman Regis, Deputy Harbormaster qtq �P
Agenda Item: Appropriating $7,322 from the Harbor Enterprise
Fund Returned Earnings Account into 401 -4001-
5380 2011 Budget.
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
The Seward Harbor has suffered a substantial loss to the 401- 4001 -5380 2011 budget account due to
a boat fire in January 2011 and two major tug /dock impacts in the harbor in February and July 2011.
These three incidents total over $7,322 in repairs for contracted services and materials. These were
unforeseen expenditures to 401 - 4001 -5380, and there are not enough remaining funds within the
2011 budget to cover expenses in order for the Harbor to continue its maintenance and repair of the
floats throughout 2011. The harbor is requesting these funds be appropriated from the Harbor
Enterprise Fund Returned Earnings Account and placed into the 401 - 4001 -5380 2011 budget. The
vessels creating these damages have been billed for the damages; the responsible parties have been
billed for the repairs and that revenue has been placed into the Harbor Enterprise Fund Returned
Earnings Account. The original 2011 Maintenance and Repair budget for the floats was $10,000 and
this has been exhausted as of August 5, 2011.
INTENT:
To amend the 2011 Small Boat Harbor Float budget and appropriate $7,322. for repairs to the Harbor
floats from Returned Earnings account into the Small Boat Harbor Floats Maintenance and Repair
line item of the 2011 Budget.
