Replacement Project Magazine.
Award

contract amount was $18,416,067.20, and the final cost was $18,629,316.54, a variation
of only 1.2%, which is unprecedented for a project this long and complex. Director

Port Angeles HarborWorks 3. Port Angeles NurborWorks Development Authoriry Update:
Development Authority
Update Jeff Lincoln, HarborWorks, 11 15 E. Front Street, used PowerPoint slides to demonstrate
the due diligence status of the Port Angeles HarborWorks Development Authority.
Mr. Lincoln stated that market, environmental, and engineering analyses of the site are
being done simultaneously to assist �vith deciding the best revenue potential if the site is
properly redeveloped. From the engineering perspective, cost of infrastructure to make
the land developable must be considered. 'I'he cost of development will be used to
formulate a financial pro forma to determine if this is a viable project for the public to
undertake. Regardingthe environmental issue, Mr. Lincoln understood there was concern
regarding site contamination, and the status of the contamination is being thoroughly
investigated.
The project timeline and the due diligence study workflow show the tasks to be on target,
as the PDA has engaged in negotiations with Rayonier. Due diligence has been divided
into two phases, with the report on the first phase due in March. This will be the basis of
moving forward to complete negotiations with Rayonier if a viable project does exist.
At that point, land use approvals would begin, and the PDA would move fonvard in a
period of chree years to be ready for redevelopment. 1'he last three years would be
engaged in development of the project.
The first milestone, holding a public open house, was accomplished in October, with
more than 100 in attendance and a lot of information was gathered. Draft reports on the
status of the contamination, escimated cost of clean up, as well as the marketability of the
site, should be available within the next three weeks.
Mr. Lincoln responded to questions posed by the Council and was thanked for the due
diligence process and for providing the report which demonstrates that things are moving
forward.

and Phi) Lusk, Power Systems Manager, a number of backflow issues in the Morse Creek
area are now in compliance with the City ordinance. Illegal taps were removed from the •
