BASED ON PAST ROCK SUPPLY CONTRACTS FOR THE SAME LOCATION WHEREAS, Kodiak Lumber, Ltd., an Alaska Corporation, (dba as Afognak Logging) has requested permission from the City to prepare a bid for supplying rock from the City owned rock quarry adjacent to the Fourth of July Creek in the Seward Marine Industrial Center to a project in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough at Point MacKenzie; and WHEREAS, if successful, Kodiak Lumber, Ltd. will pay the City $1.00/ton for rip-rap removed from the City's rock quarry; and WHEREAS, approximately 75,000 yards of rip-rap is required for this contract; and WHEREAS, the City Council has determined the public interest would be best served by not requiring competitive bids/proposals and makes the following findings: 1) Kodiak Lumber already has contract rights to operate within the quarry to access rock for the sawmill site so there would be no conflict in work crews and allowing Kodiak Lumber to supply the rock will promote a safe work site; and 2) The only other potential operator in the Seward area who has the expertise or the apparent desire to purchase the City's rock has declined to express an interest; and 3) Because there is no one else in the area who is capable or interested in purchasing rock from the City's quarry, then no one else is treated unfairly and an extensive bidding process would merely add cost and time; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA, that: Section 1.
