MEMORANDUM

Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly Members
THRU: Dale Bagley, Mayor
THRU: Scott Holt, Finance Director
FROM: Walter Robson, C. P. D. Manager
DATE: March 23, 2005
SUBJECT: Ordinance 2004-19-44, AUTHORIZING TRANSFER OF FUNDS FROM THE KENAI MIDDLE SCHOOL BLEACHER PROJECT AND APPROPRIATING TO THE SEWARD M. S. BLEACHER PROJECT AND TO THE FIRE MARSHAL CODE COMPLIANCE PROJECT INVOLVING REDOUBT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL FIRE ALARM IMPROVEMENTS
The Kenai Middle School Bleacher Replacement project was completed in the summer of 2004 leaving residual funds of $69,196.91 for other projects. From this residual, $30,000.00 is proposed to be appropriated for bleacher provision at the new Seward M.S. and $39,196.91 is proposed to be transferred for additional Fire Marshal Code Compliance work at Redoubt Elem.
Only the Base Bid work was awarded during the Seward M. S. construction project; the subject bleachers were listed as an additive alternative, but were not awarded. The subject gym, presently under construction, however, does have floor space designed to allow installation of gym bleachers which are a necessary ancillary item for the gym's intended use.
The Redoubt Elementary School has been reviewed by the local deputy fire marshal and found to be deficient for the code stipulated fire alarm system. Approximate funding of $200,000 is presently available, within the Fire Marshall Code Compliance account toward the installation of a replacement fire alarm system. The additional $39,196.911 will assure that adequate funds are available to have this project positioned for bidding this spring. The new school wide system is estimated to cost $210,000.
The attached Ordinance requests transfer of $30,000 from the Kenai Middle School Bleacher Replacement Project, 400.73030.04738, to account number 400.76030.04739.49101, Seward M.S. bleachers and the remaining $39,196.91 be appropriated to account number 400.78050.04856, Fire Marshal Code Compliance, Redoubt Elementary Fire Alarm system.
