Assembly Memorandum No. AM -0, Polaris Distributors # New Wholesale Liquor License (Taku/Campbell and Tudor Area Community Councils), Clerk s Office. (Postponed until 0- -0) Mr. Sullivan moved for immediate reconsideration of this item, following its approval on the Consent Agenda. It was seconded by Mr. Coffey and unanimously approved for reconsideration by the body. Mr. Sullivan stated that this item, dealing with a new wholesale liquor license for Polaris Distributors, had come before the Assembly two times in 0. The body had originally disapproved it, and when it was reviewed in December of 0, the Assembly had approved it, but it had been subsequently turned down by the Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) Board. Now it was again before the Assembly, with a different name. He thought the Assembly should request the applicant to come before the Assembly at a future date, to explain the relationship with the old applicant name. Mr. Coffey concurred. He stated that the Administration had responded to his inquiry, stating they did not know the reason for the ABC Board s decision and thought it was wise to wait and get their response.

Mr. Sullivan seconded, and this motion was unanimously approved, Whittle, Tremaine, Sullivan, Traini, Stout, Tesche, Jennings, Ossiander, Shamberg and Coffey. 0.D.. Assembly Memorandum No. AM -0, recommendation of award to Agen s Automotive to install vehicle engine block heaters for the Municipality of Anchorage, Department of Health and Human Services (RFP -P0) ($,0), Purchasing. Chair Traini read this memorandum title and called for a motion. Mr. Sullivan moved, to approve AM -0. Mr. Whittle seconded, To Chair Traini, Purchasing Officer Bart Mauldin responded this item was advertised as a proposal, to which they received five bids. JERRY PRZYBYLA, owner of Jerry s Automotive Services, briefly summarized the history of this program. He had received the contract in prior years, and stated that his shop had been overwhelmed with the numbers of installations of block heaters. He had requested that another one or two shops be allowed to help with installations because of the overwhelming waiting lists of customers. This would allow the heaters to be installed in a timely fashion so the purpose of the block heater program could be utilized before the winter was over. Director of Health and Human Services Beverly Wooley responded that they had used a fair process for the selection of the shop and other bids had been reviewed. The shop which had been selected offered the most competitive cost and they were experienced with the installation process. She stated it involved a matter of administrative efficiency from their office, when monitoring only one contract. To Chair Traini, Ms. Wooley responded that Eagle River would be included with this program for the first time. Eagle River Assemblymember Ms. Ossiander responded that she was delighted and agreed that having more shops available to install the heaters would be helpful. Using the statistics of the predicted numbers of vehicles and the hours needed to install the heaters, Mr. Coffey calculated that one shop would not be able to complete the work until late February. He was concerned with the efficiency of that schedule and thought more shops could be considered. Ms. Wooley responded that their department would take those suggestions into consideration. Mayor Begich and Mr. Mauldin concurred. Chair Traini requested the Administration evaluate the situation, taking into consideration the Assembly comments and recommendations. He requested the Administration monitor the shop s progress of being able to install forty block heaters per day, and report back to the body in two weeks. N Whittle, Tremaine, Sullivan, Stout, Tesche, Jennings, Ossiander and Shamberg. Traini and Coffey Mr. Sullivan stated that his YES-vote reflected that Purchasing would report back to the Assembly, allowing them to determine if multiple sites were needed. He thought that if the customers were not being served in a timely fashion, it would reflect badly on the Municipality. 0.D..Assembly Memorandum No. AM -0, recommendation of award to Rise Alaska, LLC and LCMF, Inc. to provide building project management services for the Municipality of Anchorage, Project Management & Engineering Department (RFP -P0) ($,000,000/yr.), Purchasing.

8 Anchorage Municipal Assembly Page Regular Meeting Minutes of October, Chair Traini read this memorandum title and called for a motion. Ms. Ossiander moved, to approve AM -0. Mr. Tremaine seconded, To Ms. Ossiander, Municipal Engineer Howard Holtan responded they were expecting to use both contractors for project management services on various, proposed city construction projects. He stated they were guessing on the contract amount for the predicted 0 projects, and there would be many more proposed projects. Ms. Ossiander urged the Assembly to examine this construction bid because she thought the percentage for construction management costs were too high. Mayor Begich urged the Assembly not to consider getting into the management of projects. Mr. Holtan added he did not have staff available to handle this and felt it was important to contract it out. Ms. Ossiander responded that she thought there were other options in the community to pursue to lessen expenses and she was considering amendments to lower those costs. To Mr. Coffey, Mr. Holtan responded that the administrative costs, referred to as project management, only described anticipated needs. The Mayor summarized some of the proposed projects and stated that a percentage of the bid for management was a low figure for what was involved with the vertical construction bids for buildings. To Ms. Ossiander, he responded these were very different contracts than were arranged with the Anchorage School District. He urged Ms. Ossiander to reconsider her proposal to lower the management fees. To Mr. Coffey, the Mayor responded that the construction projects included Fire Station and Fire Station, demolition of the Public Safety building, preparation of the museum expansion, renovations of the Performing Arts Center roof, the Road Maintenance office renovations and that there were many others. He felt it was necessary to contract out the construction management of these projects. Chair Traini called for a motion to postpone until later in the meeting. Mr. Tremaine moved, Mr. Stout seconded, and this motion was unanimously approved, to postpone AM -0 until later in the meeting. Chair Traini returned the body to this item later in the evening s meeting, and called for additional discussion. Mr. Tesche thought that no changes should be made to the memorandum and recommended approval of the version currently before the Assembly. Ms. Ossiander stated that she still questioned municipal policy of construction management. She indicated that the issue of 0% management fees needed to be addressed in the future. Mr. Holtan added additional proposed projects to the list of the many projects already mentioned by the Mayor, and stated that he did not think the proposed management fees were unreasonable. He stated the Municipality of Anchorage did not have office staff to manage these projects. Mr. Sullivan stated he would support the ordinance. To his question, Mr. Holtan responded that this was a nonobligating contract and not an appropriation. Deputy Municipal Manager Michael Abbott added that this was authorizing a contract and that the amount of funds used for this contract would have to be identified through a different contract. To Mr. Whittle, Mr. Holtan responded that, in his opinion, the proposed project management costs were reasonable. Ms. Ossiander stated that she still preferred to lessen the amount of the contract management fees, but would wait to address that issue at a later time. N and this motion was approved, Whittle, Tremaine, Sullivan, Traini, Stout, Tesche, Jennings, Ossiander, Shamberg and Coffey. 0.E. INFORMATION AND REPORTS 0.E..

Ms. Jennings thought that the Administration had tried a professional resolution, and with the outcome of the events, she felt the community would be missing an opportunity.
