AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF HOMER, ALASKA, AMENDING THE FY 2016 OPERATING BUDGET BY APPROPRIATING FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $89,000 FROM HOMER ACCELERATED ROADS AND TRAILS FUND FOR THE DESIGN OF THE STORM DRAIN REHABILITATION PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE ALL APPROPRIATE DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO COMPLETE THE WORK.

               WHEREAS, Public Works believes that the most cost effective method of repairing these storm drains is to slip-line them (similar to what was done on the sanitary sewer system a few years ago).

               NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY OF HOMER ORDAINS:

Section 1. The Homer City Council hereby amends the FY 2016 Operating Budget by appropriating $89,000 from the Homer Accelerated Road and Trails Program (HART) for the construction design of the storm drain rehabilitation improvements.
