FAST Planning’s Technical Committee debated design alternatives for the Chena Riverwalk Stage III path and ultimately voted to advance Alternatives 2 and 3 for further environmental review and public feedback. The project involves a partially elevated boardwalk and/or higher-ground path segments in a regulatory floodway, with flood modeling, right-of-way from Alaska Railroad, and long-term maintenance still unresolved. This is early-stage design and environmental work; engineering, boardwalk construction, and amenities have not been procured, creating openings for design, modeling, and specialty construction vendors.
Pre-RFP
$7,100,000Jun 3, 2026FAST Planning approved purchasing Alaska Railroad right-of-way for Chena Riverwalk Stage III and directed DOT&PF to return with design options around $3.6M. Alternatives range from a $7.1M elevated boardwalk to lower-cost embankment and mixed designs that may allow some flooding. This is an active planning effort where scope, materials, and cost are still being defined, creating room for design, engineering, environmental, and construction vendors to shape the final solution.
Pre-RFP
$7,100,000May 20, 2026Phase 1 contract with RESPEC approved, Design Analysis Report completed, and 35% design expected mid to late June 2026. Project includes additional geotechnical borings (34 planned for May 2026), PFAS sampling, water storage tank, directional drilling under roadway, and fire protection improvements. The current system requires upgrades to support expansion, such as additional wells, treatment, storage capacity, and monitoring.
Pre-RFP
$17,500,000May 7, 2026FAST Planning and DOT&PF are refining alternatives for the Chena Riverwalk Stage III following Policy Board approval to purchase Alaska Railroad land. Design options 2 and 3 will be reevaluated for environmental documentation and more public feedback, with cost, flooding, and maintenance issues still unresolved on a roughly $7.1 million project. This is an active planning phase where engineering, environmental, and cost-analysis support will shape the final scope before TIP funding and procurement.
Pre-RFP
$7,100,000May 6, 2026The Port Director reports an active MARAD PIDP‑funded harbor improvement program with design by PND Engineering targeting a 35% design submittal by May 2026 and NEPA completion around August 2026. Estimated project closeout is spring 2028, and the city is working on permits, Title VI compliance, and a draft grant agreement. This is a multi‑year marine infrastructure program where marine contractors, electrical, security, and controls vendors can track upcoming bid packages and subconsulting needs.
Grant Funding
$9,560,000Jun 18, 2026Dillingham is advancing its Airport Waterline Extension project under RFP 2025-02 with consultant RESPEC. Phase 1 is underway, geotechnical borings and surveying are happening in May 2026, and a 35% design package is expected by late June, with a rough construction cost of about $17.5 million. Staff plan to pursue additional funding once 35% design is complete, making this a live opportunity for firms supporting water infrastructure, funding strategy, and construction delivery.
Grant Funding
$17,500,000Jun 18, 2026The Snag Point Erosion Control Project has cleared first‑round FEMA approvals, and the city expects to secure a full 24‑month extension on its federal grant. Staff plan to return to Council with next steps and a revised project timeline once the extension is final. This positions a major shoreline protection and sewer lagoon bank stabilization effort for re‑start, creating near‑term opportunities for coastal engineering, geotechnical, and construction firms familiar with FEMA rules.
Grant Funding
$4,800,000Jun 18, 2026Through Ordinance 2026-10 and its fiscal note, the City of North Pole reallocated 2026 budget funds to significantly increase “Professional Services – Solar Project” line items for City Hall, Police, Fire, Public Works, Water, and Sewer, totaling roughly 1.85M. This comes on the heels of council approval of a Solar RFP Recommendation, where Director of City Services Tim Glidden recommended the RES proposal and council discussed the financial benefits of a solar project. The fiscal note now explicitly dedicates large professional-services budgets to solar work across general fund and enterprise utility operations, signaling multi-site design, engineering, and implementation needs that will extend beyond the initial RES contract. For vendors, this indicates an active, funded solar and energy transition program where follow-on work such as detailed design, construction, monitoring, O&M, financing advisory, and integration with existing electrical and SCADA systems may still be available around the core award.
Budget Planning
$1,850,000Jun 15, 2026North Pole amended its 2026 budget on June 15, 2026 to add nearly $1.8 million in professional services for solar projects at City Hall, police, fire, public works, water, and sewer facilities, plus VFD pumps. This follows council approval of a solar RFP recommendation, with RES mentioned as the preferred proposer. The core vendor decision on initial solar work appears made, but the scale suggests follow-on design, construction, monitoring, and maintenance opportunities and integration with other utility assets.
