From: Norman Regis Deputy Harbormaster
Agenda Item: Appropriating funds for paving the Harbor travelift road turn around area
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
This area was under construction and the paving torn out when the new travelift pit and sheet pile
wall were installed in 2009. The ground has been compacted and is in need of paving for the 50 ton
travelift as well as for the safety of the vessels being moved. This will reduce the wear and tear on
the travelift and the impact on the vessels being lifted from swinging around while in the slings on
this short section of road.

quotes are attached:

Peninsula Asphalt Paving (Nikiski) $3 1,898 quote
Northstar Paving & Construction (Soldotna) $39,500 quote
Peninsula Asphalt Paving submitted the lowest quote. They have a good reputation for high
quality, professional work.
The City Manager is authorized by Code to award the contract, but only if funds are available. The
funds will be appropriated from the Harbor Reserve Account of 401 - 0000 -3050 to the Harbor 50 ton
Travelift Infrastructure Account of 401 -4150 -5925.
