For Meeting of: July 10, 2018 ITEM TITLE: Resolution authorizing a contract with YVCOG to accept up to $238,000 of Local Recording Fee Funding for the purpose of extending utilities to city owned property accommodating a homeless encampment SUBMITTED BY: Cliff Moore, City Manager Sara Watkins, Senior Assistant City Attorney Joan Davenport, Community Development Director SUMMARY EXPLANATION: On May 31, 2018 the YVCOG Executive Committee approved the City of Yakima's request for $100,000 to be used to extend public water and sewer to the City owned property where Camp Hope will be located , adjacent to the City Wastewater Treatment Plant. The funding source is Local Filing Fees, sometimes referred to as "2163" Funds. This first funding request is necessary in order to have engineering plans and project estimates prepared by a professional engineering company. Actual construction costs will necessitate additional funding, but plans and costs are not yet fully known. It is anticipated that the cost of providing public water and sewer to Camp Hope will be approximately $238,000. The attached contract with YVCOG is for $100,000 and will be used immediately to engage a professional engineer and begin the procurement process. A supplemental contract will be presented to City Council in the near future, for construction, when actual costs and timelines are prepared.
