MEMORANDUM

TO: Gary Superman, Assembly President

Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly Members

THRU: Dale Bagley, Mayor

Scott Holt, Finance Director

FROM: Walter Robson, PW/MPD Manager  

DATE: May 26, 2005

SUBJECT: Resolution 2005-052, Authorizing Transfer Of Funds From The Completed Homer High School Exterior Refurbishment Project To The Kenai High School Roof Replacement Sections "C" And "D" Project

The work by Maintenance forces has been completed on the Homer High School Exterior Refurbishment project. The work was funded originally through a $150,000 appropriation in the 2003 Budget, account # 400.72010.03723. An approximate remainder of $16,000 is available for transfer to the proposed KCHS Roof Replacement "C" and "D" Sections project. This roof project was funded at $200,000, through the borough FY05 budget, account 400.73020.05713.

The recent bid for the KCHS roofing project was received on May 25, 2005 at $206,000. A separate resolution is included in this same agenda, recommending award of that work contingent upon this resolution being passed.

The reconstruction of the subject roof will allow approximately 10,500 SF of roofing to be reworked and over 400 LF of new parapet to be constructed. This work is slated for inclusion for an upcoming award through an Alaska Department of Education grant program for both Kenai Central High School and Homer Middle School roof projects. However, this work needs to commence and be completed this summer, prior to the time period necessary for any state grant agreement being finalized. The revised appropriation, contingent upon this resolution, will be $216,000. The additional $10,000 over the bid amount is to cover administrative expenses and for a contingency amount as is included in all construction budgets.

The attached Resolution requests transfer of $16,000 from the Homer High School Exterior Painting, account 400.72010.03723, to account 400.73020.05713. All expenditures for this project will then be charged to account number 400.73020.05713.
