MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council
THROUGH:
Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM:
Scott Curtin
DATE:
April 12, 2021
SUBJECT:
Resolution 2021-26 — Wildwood Drive Rehabilitation Project
The purpose of this memo is to request Council's support of Resolution 2021-26. Wildwood Drive
continues to be one of the poorest rated condition roadways within the City. This resolution will
move $329,000 in funds, appropriated in previous fiscal years intended for "roadway projects yet
to be determined" into a Capital Project identified as the Wildwood Drive Rehabilitation Project.
A Request for Proposals will be released this spring for Professional Engineering Services to
develop bid ready construction documents, with the intent of releasing an invitation to bid for
construction in early summer.
The project consists of approximately 2500 linear feet of roadway from the Spur Highway to near
the entrance of the correctional facility. Completion of this work will allow the Streets Department
to more effectively maintain this roadway.
Council's support is respectfully requested.
