HP CLG PROJECT # 20005
Walking Tour Project Report for work session-Tanguy Libbrecht
RHFM OQNFQDRR9
Report from Mary Ann Benoit. She will detail how 26 signs are just about complete and
ready to go to production. Once ordered, expected delivery is around Mid-June (See
timeline)
ATCFDS
We are on track with some help. I contacted the State of Alaska SHPO to let them know
that posts, brackets, production are exceeding original estimates, in great part because of
the strong demand of our project. They are going to increase the reimbursement to 24,000
from $17,825, There is not anticipated extra cost to the city as our volunteer hours and in
kind will cover our portion of the match. While this amount will cover the Cost of design of
signs, production, posts, brackets, delivery, it will not cover the cost of digging, concrete,
install. This will need to come from private entities. Note that I will ask for a motion from
the commission for me to send the request in to the SHPO to accept the additional funding.
I have made Ms. Naneth Ambrosiani aware in finance. I will also be sending her all invoices
received to date, as well as any estimates.
We have received interest from Rotary Club of Seward to offer a donation. Bruce Jaffa has
also helped as have private homeowners. Fundraising committee will need to convene and
dial this in.
We also need to discuss how in kind and donor recognition will occur as a matter of
consistent policy. H g`ud qdptdrsdc ` rodbh`k lddshmf enkknvhmf sgd 3-08 vnqj rdrrhnm to
discuss and vote on how to consistently receive any funding and recognize time and
monetary donations, whether it be signs, on maps, or a combination or derivative of either
or both.

City of Seward:
Neither public works or Parks and Rec can assist. Neither has the equipment, staff, or
resources. Both Cntf in Public Works and Sxkdq in Parks and Rec have been contacted.
Assistance from city departments seems unlikely at this point.,
Aqtbd I`ee` with Jaffa construction has indicated willingness to help with install, short of
digging the holes. I will discuss with him if he would be willing to donate cement, backfill
or expertise.
We will need to seek private options.
Bnllhrrhnmdq Odladqsnm has indicated he can operate equipment.

Letter ready for approval at Feb 11 Meeting. Both for above and below funding
Tanguyline.
No intent to put people into a 20' Setback. Bigger concern is city of right of way
(Street) Identify where line is. On second between Washingtonand Adams,
houses are built right up into street. Grandfathered. Tricky part is looking at a
case by case basis. Setback is defined as required minimum difference from
right of way or lot line only landscaping,parking,etc.is permitted. Will send
Mary Annletter and properties and permit. Does not need to know size.
Ms. Kingsland noted this as a reasonable timeline, needto verify report was

Valarie Kingsland
V@KJHMF SNTQ L@O: To be set up as a TRI-Fold
Something similar to this, like they did for Valdez. After speaking to Peter, he has agreed to
design the walking tour map, all color with points of interest on one side and black and
white narrative on the other for NO ADDITIONAL COST. 26 signs will be in production,
while there will be close to 30-40 properties on the map.
Printing will be an extra, very reasonable cost
From Peter: He gave me two quotes to show the range from simple to more fancy.
5,000 trifold 8.5x11 B&W (20 lb. normal bond paper) = $300 (6 cents each roughly)
5,000 trifold 8.5x11 full color with full bleed (nicer 24 lb. paper) = $895 (18 cents roughly each)
