MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council
THROUGH:
Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM:
Scott Curtin, Public Works Director
DATE:
August 14, 2019
SUBJECT:
Ordinance No. 3078 - 2019
The 2019 Airfield Marking, Crack Sealing, Seal Coating, and Pavement Repair Project was
released for formal Invitation to Bid on May 7, 2019. On June 6, 2019 a Construction Contract
was awarded to Northwest Contracting, LLC in the amount of $713,998.50.
Also taking place in June 2019 was an annual Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport
Certification Safety Inspection. Detailed within their report received on July 1, 2019 were some
requested modifications to the runway markings. In order to prevent reworking portions of the
current project after completion, it is appropriate to address these issues now within the project.
The projected total cost impact to the project for these requested modifications is $34,900.00.
Additionally, the estimated quantities for crack sealing are insufficient to complete the project as
designed. This may be the result of several factors, including the earthquake last November as
well as additional wear and tear on the runway, depth and size of cracks, etc., over the last year.
It is projected another $135,000 in crack seal will be necessary to complete the current scope of
the project.
The total cost of Change Order 1 to Northwest Contracting, LLC is $169,900.00 for a total
construction contract cost of $883,898.50. The additional costs, with Council's approval, will be
covered by $117,441.00 in FAA eligible funding, $25,459.00 in a new appropriation from the
Airport Special Revenue Fund, and $27,000.00 in funds currently remaining in the project as
Admin.
The Public Works Director, Airport Manager and the Administration all agree this work is in the
best interest of the City. Council's approval is respectfully requested.
