SuUject: Kenai Soccer Park Construction - 2006
The purpose of Lhis correspondence is to recommend that all bids received for the
construction of the above referenced project be rejected, and the project re-bid in March
2007.
This project was unable to go Yo bid until the schedule for the Airport Improvemenfs
ProjecY was determined, since topsoil and peat from the airport projec2 is incorporated in
the soccer field construction.
As a result of the delays in the airport projecT, regardless o£whether a contract for
construc2ion of the soccer fields is awarded in August of 2006, ar March of 2007, the
fields wili not be ready to support a state soccer tournament scheduled to be held in Kenai
late in 1he summer of 2007.
Bidding the project in March of 2007 will take advantage of a more competitive bidding
environmenT, and also provide the opportunity to explore additional funding altematives
if necessary.
Thuilc you for your attenrion in this matter.
There remains $ 281,000 of dedicated project funding
