Both governing boards directed their staff to begin discussions about creating an avigation easement and to report back in 60 days. Funding: Unknown at this time, analysis and negotiation is continuing. Recommendation: None at this time, information only. Background/Analysis: On January 30, 2017 the Port Commission and Port Angeles City Council conducted a joint meeting where one of the topics discussed was a potential avigation easement over the city owned Lincoln Park east of Fairchild International Airport. Both governing boards requested that their respective staff begin discussions about creating an avigation easement and report back in 60 days. During February and March, Port and City officials exchanged several emails and a draft agreement was created by the Port. In order for the City to continue discussions regarding the draft agreement, the City developed a list of questions that needed to be answered for better clarity. The Port then utilized their airport consultant to answer the City’s questions and generate airspace requirements for the following four potential scenarios: 1. Retain the existing 5,000 foot runway without a precision approach 2. Retain the existing 5,000 foot runway with the addition of a precision approach 3. Re-establish the 6,350 foot runway without a precision approach 4. Re-establish the 6,350 foot runway with a new precision approach C I T Y C O U N C I L M E M O The above data was shared with City staff during a meeting set up by the Port on March 29, 2017. The City staff indicated it would need time to analyze the data to fully understand the potential impacts on the operations of Lincoln Park. When that analysis is complete, the Port and City staff will meet to discuss impacts and potential details for the avigation easement and recommendations to their respective governing boards. That process is expected to be completed in the next 60 days. Funding Overview: Unknown at this time, analysis and negotiation is continuing. DATE: April 4, 2017 TO: City Council FROM: COREY DELIKAT, PARKS & RECREATION DIRECTOR SUBJECT: City Pier Transient Moorage Float Replacement, Project PK11-06 Summary: The City received a TIER II Boating Infrastructure Grant to replace the City Pier Transient Moorage Floats. On March 29, 2017, four bids were received with Topper Industries, Inc., of Woodland, WA being the lowest responsible bidder. Funding Cost: BIG TIER II Grant - $145,774.15 City of PA (REET 1) - $ 48,591.39 Total Estimate Cost - $194,365.54 Recommendation: 1.) Approve and authorize the City Manager to award and sign a contract for the City Pier Transient Moorage Float Replacement Project, PK11-06, with Topper Industries, Inc., of Woodland, WA, in the amount of $194,365.54 including applicable taxes, and authorize the City Manager to make minor modifications to the contract, if necessary; and 2.) Approve and authorize the City Manager to make an additional float purchase pending permitting and grant funding approval from the Recreation and Conservation Office and the Army Corp of Engineers. Background/Analysis: In April 2014, City Council approved Resolution 05-14 permitting City staff to pursue a TIER II Boating Infrastructure Grant (BIG) for the City Pier Transient Moorage Float Replacement Project from the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO). On February 23, 2015, the City was notified that it was awarded the BIG grant which pays for 75% of the float replacement project. The estimated cost of the project was $350,200, so the City received $257,948 (75%) of Federal funding and the remaining $48,591.39 (25%) was to be paid by the City out of Real Estate Excise Tax (REET 1) funding. On October 28, 2015, the City Council approved the grant agreement from the RCO. On February 9, 2017, the City received the Nationwide Permit from the Army Corp of Engineers and was given permission to move forward with the project. C I T Y C O U N C I L M E M O On March 16, 2017, the City solicited for bids. On March 29, the City received the following bids: Company Base Bid Ranking Topper Industries, Inc., Woodland, WA $194,365.54 1 Bellingham Marine Industries, Inc. Ferndale, WA $291,495.46 2 Neptune Marine, LLC, Anacortes, WA $301,514.60 3 Marine Floats, Tacoma, WA $324,654.75 4 Since the bids came in lower than originally estimated, the overall cost is now $145,774.15 (75%) of Federal funding and only $48,591.39 (25%) of the City’s REET funding. This has allowed City staff to look at replacing one additional float that was not originally included in this project due to the additional costs of having to purchase a new 80 foot gangway. This is an ADA requirement for the grant and was an unexpected cost since we already had a 40 foot gangway leading down to the main floats. To cut down on the overall cost of the project, the east float, pictured in the photo below, was eliminated during the grant process. The estimated cost for the additional float from Topper Industries is $70,000, without shipping, and still falls within the original budget. This amount would also be split between 25/75 using grant funding pending approval from the RCO. To keep this project moving forward so we can get the floats in June, we would like Council to approve the lowest bid of $194,365.54 for the main floats and allow staff to work with Topper Industries, the RCO, and the Army Corp of Engineers on purchasing the additional east float. DATE: April 18, 2017 TO: City Council FROM: COREY DELIKAT, PARKS & RECREATION DIRECTOR SUBJECT: Race Street Crosswalk Improvement – Information Only Summary: The crosswalk that connects Civic Field and Erickson Playfield poses visibility issues for both pedestrians that are crossing and vehicles that are merging as they are traveling south on Race Street. A new crosswalk system will be put in place, with completion expected to be done by the end of April. Funding: Information only. Recommendation: Information only. Background/Analysis: The crosswalk that connects Civic Field and Erickson Playfield poses visibility issues for both pedestrians that are crossing and vehicles that are merging as they are traveling south on Race Street. The darkness also poses an issue as you have the shadow of the stadium on one side and, on Erickson Playfield side, you have a heavily forested area that also casts a shadow. While at Civic Field one evening last winter, I witnessed on two separate occasions a pedestrian almost get struck by a vehicle as they were crossing from Civic over to Erickson Playfield. With the increase of use at Civic on the horizon, I met with the City’s Traffic Engineer on a safety solution for this particular area. What he came up with was a crosswalk that has a flashing beacon (see attached photo). Once the pushbutton on the pole is pressed, the flashing LED lights will alert vehicles that someone needs to cross the street. The material cost for this project was $7,500 which was purchased from REET 1 funding earlier this year. City staff will do the installation with completion expected to be done by the end of April. Funding Overview: Information only. C I T Y C O U N C I L M E M O Example Race Street
