CITY OF PORT LIONS (,4fit, mayor 4732\OPLD.002 ITEM NO. /a?, D. Kodiak Island Borough of: 1%ri l !6, 1942 - ITEM TITLE: The City of Port Lions Exxon -Valdez Funds Advance Agreement SUMMARY STATEMENT The City of Port Lions expended most of their available fund balances during the oil spill time on various oil spill related projects which Exxon subsequently refused to reimburse. As a result, they have had extremely limited funds to assist in the preparation of documents for the continued litigation. What is being proposed by the Agreement is to use some of the Exxon funds which the Kodiak Island Borough has retained as an advance to the City of Port Lions until such time as settlement or successful litigation is completed with Exxon. At that point in time, the $20,000 would be refunded to the Kodiak Island Borough. We are operating on the assumption that the funds that have been retained would be included in the eventual resolution of our differences with the Exxon Company. This agreement will allow Port Lions to fully participate in the document collection for the litigation effort. Administration recommends approval of this agreement as being in the best interest of both the citizens of Port Lions and the Kodiak Island Borough.
