J4.p4%LA <br /> yt. L Allan Ekberg, Mayor <br /> 10, <br /> a Public Works Department-Henry Hash, Director <br /> 2 08; <br /> INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: Transportation and Infrastructure Committee <br /> FROM: Henry Hash, Public Works Director /1/ - <br /> BY: Ryan Larson, Senior Program Manager <br /> CC: Mayor Ekberg <br /> DATE: November 21, 2018 <br /> SUBJECT: Surface Water Fund - East Marginal Way South Stormwater Outfalls <br /> Project No. 91041204 <br /> Acceptance of WA State Department of Ecology Grant <br /> ISSUE <br /> Authorize the Mayor to sign a grant agreement with the Washington State Department of Ecology. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> In October 2014, Council authorized staff to submit a grant application to the Washington State <br /> Department of Ecology (Ecology)for construction and final design funding for the East Marginal Way <br /> South Stormwater Outfall Project. The grant application was successful and was incorporated into <br /> the State Fiscal Year 2016 Final Water Quality Funding Offer List. Shortly after receiving notice from <br /> Ecology, the City was informed that the grant funding source was insufficient to fund all projects on <br /> the approved list and that the East Marginal Way S Stormwater Outfall Project was delayed until <br /> Ecology funding could be secured. In late 2018, staff was notified that funding had been reinstated <br /> and the project could move forward. <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> The Ecology grant agreement has now been finalized and is ready for signatures. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> There is a 25% City match required for the Ecology grant. The match will come from surface water <br /> utility revenue funds. The current Proposed 2019 CIP has only $403,000 in surface water funds and <br /> we are proposing an increase to $482,000 as required for the match amount and previous <br /> expenditures. <br /> Grant Award City match Total <br /> Ecology $1,106,205 $368,750 $1,475,000 <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> Council is being asked to authorize the Mayor to execute the Washington State Department of <br /> Ecology grant contract for the East Marginal South Stormwater Outfalls project and consider this <br /> item on the Consent Agenda at the December 3, 2018 Regular Meeting. <br /> Attachments: Proposed 2019 CIP, new proposed pg. 92 <br /> Ecology Grant Agreement:Agreement No.WQC-2016-Tukwil-00132 <br /> W:\PW Eng\PROJECTS\A-DR Projects\East Marginal Way Stormwater Outfalls(91041204)\Grants\Construction\Info Memo RCO grant accept gl 112118.docx <br /> 125 <br />
