1.0 – I NTRODUCTION/OVERVIEW

The City of Valdez, Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services Department, is

soliciting proposals from qualified individuals or firms to operate and manage the

Allison Point Campground. The Operator selected will be responsible for

seasonal campground operations in accordance with the terms outlined in this

Request for Proposals (RFP).

The City intends to enter into an operating agreement for an initial term of three

(3) years. The agreement may be renewed for up to two (2) additional one-year

terms at the discretion of the City and subject to mutual agreement.

This section provides an overview of the services to be provided and outlines the

solicitation and award process.

1.1 Background

Allison Point Campground is a seasonal public campground located across Port

Valdez from the City of Valdez, accessible via Dayville Road. The campground

offers approximately 46 designated RV sites and is a popular destination for

shoreline fishing.

Amenities include public restroom facilities, multiple improved trails providing

access to the water’s edge, and fire rings at select sites. The campground does

not provide electrical or sewer hook-ups. Campers requiring dump station

services may access facilities located within the City of Valdez.

Allison Point is particularly active during the summer salmon runs, drawing

residents and visitors throughout the operating season.

The City of Valdez owns the campground and associated infrastructure. To

ensure consistent supervision, maintenance, and visitor services during the

operating season, the City contracts with a private operator to manage day-to-

day campground operations.

1.2 Summary of Services to be Provided

The selected Operator shall provide all labor, supervision, materials, and

services necessary to operate and maintain the campground, including facility

and janitorial maintenance, site supervision, resource protection, visitor services,

and fee collection.

The Operator will be authorized to collect approved user fees in accordance with

the terms of the operating agreement.

4

Allison Point Campground is intended to remain primarily natural and minimally

developed. Optional services that are consistent with the campground's

character may be proposed and are subject to City approval. Proposers shall

clearly identify any optional services in their submission for consideration during

the evaluation process.

1.3 Compensation to the City

The Operator shall be responsible for establishing reasonable campground user

fees. All proposed fee schedules shall be submitted to the City for review prior to

implementation and shall remain consistent with comparable facilities in the

region.

As compensation for the opportunity to operate the campground, the Operator

shall remit to the City five percent (5%) of Net Revenue generated from

campground operations.

The Operator shall maintain complete and accurate financial records related to

campground operations. Detailed revenue and expense reports, including

supporting documentation, shall be provided to the City in a format approved by

the City. Payment of the City’s share of Net Revenue shall be remitted annually

no later than December 31, unless otherwise specified in the operating

agreement.
