Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: May 8, 2006
To: Clark Corbridge, City Manager
From: W.C. Casey, Public Works Director
Agenda Item: Accepting loan proceeds from ADEC, amending
the current contract with CRW and appropriating
funds
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
In 2005, the City of Seward began the process of obtaining a loan from ADEC to fund the Third
Avenue Waterline replacement project in conjunction with the 0-8 Mile Seward Highway Project.
That process was successfully completed early in 2006. In 2004, the City appropriated $168,500 from
the General Fund and transferred those funds to the Water Enterprise Fund to contract with CRW to
complete the water line design. As of March 2006, the design work has been completed and
approximately $40,000 remains unspent from the $168,500 appropriation for design work
Staff recommends amending the current design contract with CRW to include Construction Support
Services. Those costs are estimated to be $95,000, which will include pre-construction activities,
construction support (CRW staff engineer on-site for a minimum of 40 hours per week), project
closeout, and As-built submittals.
CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST: Where applicable, this agenda statement is consistent with the
Seward City Code, Charter, Comprehensive Plans, Land Use Plans, Strategic Plan and City Council
