Dear Mayor Wagoner and Members of Council:
.'
The Kenai Chamber of Commerce, through its Visitor & Resident Information
Center, has been made aware of several projects that would further enhance
•
our community and provide additional attractions that could be enjoyed by
residents and visitors alike.
`)
Two items have continually been brought to our attention -- one being a
recreation boat launch ramp -spectator viewing area along the banks of the
Kenai River and the other being boardwalks and viewing areas sited at the
r
Kenai River Bridge in the river flats area. Both of these projects, we
,
believe, could benefit many for minimal costs.
The Chamber Board of Directors has recently appointed a special task force,
including Fred Braun, Walt Craycroft and Cheryl Sutton, to review the possi-
bility of these projects and work in conjunction with the Kenai City Council
7
?
and City Administration. It would be our desire to meet with the members of
t
Council in an informal work session, at your convenience, to further discuss
`
and present our proposal.
-y
Please advise our office if such a meeting might be acceptable to the members
of Council and, if so, a date and time.
.'..
Thank you for your consideration.
SincereAy,
'Sue' C. Carter

Re: Lot 13, Alyeska Sub - City Lease
Dear Tim:
This letter will confirm our recent telephone conversation and
';k.. the receipt of your letter, dated August 26, 1986 with regard to
the above subject property. In our opinion the increased rent
effective July 1, 1986, is exorbitant and should be negotiated
downward.
I am sure you are aware that in the past people were encouraged
_ by the City of Kenai to lease and develop city lands. The
.. ordinance was so constructed to invite this and any rental increases
were limited to 50% maximum. This has been the case for the past
ten years. Now it appears after considerable private development
and expense, the City by ordinance can do as it pleases. In our
,. case the proposed increase is more than three ( 3 ) times the
pnvious rent.
Persuant to paragraph 10 ( page 2 ) of that certain lease between
# the City of Kenai and Kenai Steel Buildings, subsequently assigned
to B & Z VENTURES, dated June 1, 1966 we believe the lease rate
j. increase should be redetermined. With respect to the current and
projected sconomy we feel -an
increase in rant •oE anything more than
100% would noe bt fair or:equi:.able. �i'herc,fore0 ewe would pronnse

Redeterminations
This memorandum is in response your request concerning the number
.`4 of lessees who have notified me expressing their dissatisfaction
with their increased lease rates on lots being redetermined this
C year. -A qualified appraiser performed appraisals on each lot and
1 the appraised values have been confirmed by a second appraiser.
One of the reasons for higher lease rates is because five years
ago, at the last redetermination, many of these lessees had a
one-time 50% cap as a result of a 1979 Ordinance. That Ordinance
- was repealed in late 1981, and Ordinance 684-81 limited the cap
to on -airport lands, restricted to aeronautical use only.
This year there were 31 lots up for five-year redeterminstions. I
have received 14 signed Amendments. The following is the status
` of the remaining lots. I have attached-eopiee of the appropriate
correspondence.
-UHT (Kambe), Lok ,12, .,Meyesk.a .S•1h. bas submitted a requeKL

i
this and other problems. I have forwarded this to the Legal

Aaron Sarks, Lot 4, Block 4, CIIAP - verbally expressed
dissatisfaction but did sign and return the amendment. Previous
rate was $945.00, new rate is $5,670.00.

Lease redetermination
Gentlemen:
I protest the excessive amount you arbitrarily raised my annual
lease payment an the above property.
There is no place in my lease giving the "Kenai City Council" the
right to adopt a rate of return for the lease amount. My lease
states that no increase or decrease shall be effective, except upon
90 days written notice. My notification letter stating the increase
was dated May 21, 1986,however, I received it June 3, 1986, than I
got a bill for the increase on June 19, 1986. This does not Siva
me 90 days notice and is grossly unfair to not give me a chance to
protest the increase.
The Increase you are billing me for went from 7 1/20 per square foot
to 210 per square foot. In these times of slow economy,the increase
I feel, is too much. I presently have the property rented and would
4
have to Increase the rent from the present .950 per sq.ft to $1.16
per sq.ft. There are too many empty office spaces in Kenai for my
renters to paythis much. I would lose my tenants if I have to
increase --Iz rent so vuell.

Reading the ordiance #684-81, seems to state that were limited to

over the years with regard to these leases.

renegotiate the lease terms on each fifth year anniversary
of the lease. Instead, the City has simply dictated a new
lease rate and threatened to terminate the lease if the

and my client vigorously objected and the City amended its
position.
Fourthly, in May, 1985, the City attempted to impose
new leases on my client and I was retained to review and
discuss that proposal with my client in June, 1985. The
proposed new leases were seriously to my client's detriment
and were not executed.
Finally, each year my client receives a demand for pay-
ment of the real property taxes. Upon reviewing the lease.
it appears that my client has been coerced into paying the
property taxes which it had no contractual responsibility to
do. Last year the taxes exceeded $4,200. This year, it is
expected that the taxes would double based on the new but
questionable appraisals. Over the years, it is believed
that my client has spent more than $40,000 in the payment of
real property taxes, all of which should be reimbursed to my
Cclient by the City of.Kenai.
With regard to your letter of May 21, 1986, I find the
language contained therein particularly objectionable, but
consistent with the City's past actions. You state that the
leases contain a clause for a 5-year "redetermination of the
lease rates." The word "redetermination" cannot be found in
the lease. However, it appears that every five years the
City takes the position that it can unilaterally determine
what the new rate will be. This is in direct violation of
the lease agreement.
Fv.:•thermore, with regard to the City'Council'-hdoptinq a•
4& rate. of return for !:?ase of airport lands, that has
absolutely nothing to do with the leases Under. discussion.,
,,If the City Council established a 20% or 40% rate of return
figure for airport lands, it would not affect my client.
The lease rate is what it is today until it is renegotiated
or the Board of Appraisers determines it to be otherwise.
To "negotiate" means to bargain, discuss, arrange, conduct
communications or conferences, and calls for deliberation,
discussion, or conference upon the terms of a proposed
agreement. Although the City has never been inclined to
"negotiate" this lease in the past, we feel that due to the
outrageous increases dictated by the City, that the terms of
the lease must be adhered to.

With regard to Lots 10, 11, 12 & 13, pursuant to my
client's letter of May 11, 1981, you were advised that
Brinkerhoff Drilling Company is the sublessee. They are now

paying $1,550 per month or $18,600 annually. (My client has
`
'<
never been able to sublease Lot 14 despite efforts to do
f
so) .
F
Based upon your newly dictated terms, my client would
have to raise the rents to $3,333 per month or $40,000 per
year to simply to cover the lease rate, taxes, and

insurance. Of course, my client does not intend to pay any
more real property taxes anti 1 such time as it can be shown
that it is contractually obligated to do so. However, there
is no doubt that Brinkerhoff will vacate the premises if it
receives notice that its monthly rates will have to double
"
beginning July 1, 1986. My client is not inclined to give
such notice until such time as a lease rate is renegotiated
and established. However, if the City of Kenai is going to
take the position that any newly established rate shall be
1.
retroactive back to July 1, 1986, then my client will be
compelled to promptly announce the increase to Brinkerhoff
.
and risk losing Brinkerhoff as a tenant. Of course, if it
i
is subsequently established that the lease rate will not be
increased in the amount currently dictated by the City or it
is established that the new rate is not retroactive, and my
client has lost Brinkerhoff as a tenant, then Beluga will
look to the City for damages as a result of Brinkerhoff Is
vacating the premises.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Councilmembers
City of Kenai
FRO m Rogers, City Attorney
City of Kenai
August 13, 1986
RE: Lease Renegotiations
This memorandum was prepared in an effort to help the City
Council understand ongoing negotiations with lessees. As some
Councilmembers may be aware, in the pest these negotiations have
led to litigation. In order to avoid possible litigation down
the line, the Legal Department has prepared a procedural plan for
dealing with the lease renegotiations.
Accompanying this memorandum is a spreadsheet and procedural flow
chart prepared by the Legal Assistant which detail how the
negotiations are being conducted. The spreadsheet, for the most
part, is self-explanatory and delineates the status of each
individual lessee up for re-negotation in 1986. The codes that
go with the respective columns are attached to the back of the
spreadsheet,on individual pages. It should be -noted that there
ade fixr; •dxf: Brent :renmeyot iation clauses written into these
varicur lesser. Cacti individual clau3e determin(:a how the
various re&negotiet•ion processes are conducted.
Unlike the spreadsheet, the flow chart is not easy to comprehend.
In order to aid the Council in understanding the proceedings, a
narrative follows herein in which the various steps of
renegotiation ere discussed.
Box (1) indicates the lease file so it is maintained at City
Hall. To initiate renegotiation, the Administrative Assistant
sends a re -negotiation notice to the lessee (2). The question
1
ap
then becomes under (3) whether this notice is effective or not.
If for instance the lessee does not pick up the notice or
something happens to the mails whereby the lessee does not
receive notice, then the chart returns the reader to (2) and
another re -negotiation notice is sent. If the notice is
effective, then the question becomes whether the amendment has
been signed (4). If the lessee signs the amendment without any
protest, the lease is returned to the lease file and that is the
end of the re -negotiation process as to that lessee. If however,
the lesseee protests the proposed increase in rent (5), certain
things must happen. If the protest is oral, the Administrative
Assistant should send a letter to the lessee demanding that the
protest be reduced to writing (6). If, however, the lessee
protests in writing, then the Administrative Assistant forwards
the file to the Legal Department (7). If no protest is
forthcoming, then the Legal Department proceeds with eviction
(20) which is discussed later in this memorandum.
Once the Administrative Assistant has forwarded the file to the
Legal Department, the Legal Department addresses the basis of the
protests (8). There appear to be several general categories of
protest which many of the lessees raise. These include questions
of whether they are entitled to a 50% cap and whether the City is
negotiating or simply redetermining. Other protests can include
just a general objection to the dollar figures, miscellaneous
objections, and notice requirements. If the notice is not
effective (9a) the process starts all over and the reader is
returned to (2). If however, the notice is effectivs 89
determined by the Legal Department, the Legal Department then
sends a letter (10) addressing the protests. If there is a
response (11) to this protest, in the form of further protests
(12), then tho protest process starts again from (5).
If however, there is no response from the lessee or there is no
further protest, then the question must be asked whether any
negotiation has been initiated at all (13). If negotiation has
been initiated in some manner and it is successful (14), then the
process in to have a lease reLe set.(18). If however, the
`negotiation has not been initiated, the - question needs to be
w asked whether arbitration:is available and/or required under the
lease (15). If no arbitration is available, the Loyal Depar.tmont
proceeds to the eviction procedures set under (20). If
arbitration is available, then the City appoints an arbitrator
(16) and notifies the lessee and demands that the lessee appoint
a second arbitrator as required under the lease clause. The
question then is whether the lessee appoints the second
arbitrator (17). If the lessee does not act and does not appoint
ceedings are initiated under (20). If
2
L
L
0
the lessee does appoint a second arbitrator and a lease rate is
eventually set (18), the procedures determine whether the
amendment was signed (19). If the amendment is signed, then it
obviously returns to the lease file, and that is the end of the
negotiations. If however, the amendment has not be signed, then
the eviction proceedings are invoked (20).
The first step in the eviction procedure is for the Legal
Department to send a notice to quit the premises to the lessee.
If there is response (21) in the form of a protest, then the
protest procedures are again invoked at (5). If however, there
is no response to the notice to quit the premises, then the Legal
Department is forced to file a forcible entry and detainer (FED)
proceeding (22). The litigation process is outside the
parameters of this flow chart, however it is assumed for purposes
of this chart that the property is eventually restored to the
City (23). In the past this has generally been how the City
FED's have been resolved.

{. The following clauses are excerpted from various leases
�! The clause can be matched to the lessee by referring to
the clause column of the spreadsheet.
4 As near as can be determined, James Fischer was the City
Attorney when leases containing the A and B clauses were
•>. drafted.
Ernie Schlereth drafted the D clause.
Ben Delahay drafted and/or approved the C clause.
4 Tim Rogers drafted the E clause.
Problems (such as those encountered in the Ferguson Litigation)
arose when leases failed to include paragraphs 10 and 33.
Ferguson's lease is an A type lease. Essentially, someone
`• left off paragraph 33.

intervals of five (5) years from the lot day of July preceding
the effective date of this Lease. No increase or decrease in the
amount of rents or fees shall be effective, until after thirty
(30) days written notice. Pair Market Value is defined as "the
highest price estimated in terms of money which a property will
bring if exposed for sale on the open market allowing a
reasonable period of time to find a purchaser who buys with
knowledge of all the uses to which it is adapted and for which it

on the condition of the land on the date of this lease plus the
value of improvements, if any, made by the City subsequent to the
date of this Lease which would affect the value of the property.
At each five (5) year interval, the City will have the
fair market value determined by a qualified independent
appraiser. The redetermined lease rate, annual rent, under this
provision shall be limited to a fifty percent (50%) increase in
the prior lease rate until the 30th year anniversary of the lease
after which the 50% cap provision shall no longer apply and the
lease rate shall be redetermined every five years on the basis of
fair market evaluation as indicated above.
If the Lessee does not accept the above appraisal as
the fair market value as of July 1 of the redetermination year,
Lessee shall give written notice to City of such refusal within
30 days after delivery to Lessee of the appraised valuation and
the rental rate derived therefrom, and within 10 days after such
notice of refusal, the Lessee or the representative of the Lessee
will meet with the representative of the City to select an
impartial appraiser who must be a member of a recognized
appraisal organization with a designation which denotes
proficiency in the appraisal of commercial property fron such
organization. If the Lessee fails to give written notice of
refusal lithin 30 days c: to meet with a representative of the
Cite with:.r. 10 days after delivery of notice of refusal (or
within any extension of such time granted by the City Manager !or
good cause shown to him), then the rate as determined by the City
will be effective and failure to pay.that rate in full by Lessee
will be cause for cancellation of the lease.
.-12'the City and Lessee cannot agree on an appraiser as
above provided, the City and Lessee shall each submit the name of
such appraiser who has not rendered -an appraisal on the property
subject hereto within one year prior to selection, the names will
be placed in a container, and one will be drawn by lot. The
parties hereby agree that the appraiser agreed upon or so
selected will be retained for the redetermination appraisal, that
each party will pay one-half of the fee and expenses of the
appraisal, that the appraiser will be informed that he or she is
being jointly retained by the parties, and that the appraisal
rendered will be binding on both parties for that specific
redetermination of rental rate, which shall be effective as of
July 1 of the redetermination year.

Discussion followed relative to the feasibility of the construction of Boardwalks
j�
along the Kenai River Flats adjacent to the Bridge Access Road. Items including the
'.ft..
permit processes, construction, funding, etc. were extensively discussed and the
`y-
following was the concensus of the meeting attendees:
(1) Monies were available for enhancement of the area, however, $10.000 has been
allocated for the construction of bathroom facilities.
r
(2) Labor could be utilized from the Wildwood Correctional Facility for the con-
struction of the Boardwalk.
(3) Additional funding could be obtained by donations and/or purchase of specified
portions of the Boardwalks, which then would be designated with a plaque of the
individual's name, etc.
(4) U. S. Fish 4 Wildlife would assist with such items as the scopes, signing and
-
at certain time of the year, perhaps some staffing of the area.
(5) Alaska State Parks will assist with the permit process as well as a proposal
for the siting of the Boardwalks and viewing platforms. The proposal will be done
1
with "phase construction" so that a portion of the project may be accomplished as
funding and time permits.
WORK SESSION: A work session with the Kenai City Council will be held on Tuesday,
September 9th with members of the committee and State Parks attending.
Boat Launch
After considerable discussion on the suitability of a public boat launch that was
located near the downtown area as well as accessible to the good fishing, it was
i
determined by committee members that they would meet and view the Cunningham Park
i!
Area as a possible site. In addition, engineer Bill Nelson reviewed the proposed
plan for the up -grade and construction of a dock facility located at the site of the
Ai.
present Kenai City Dock. Mr. Nelson explained that this would accommodate commercial
'
fishing boats as well as provide parkings for vehicles and trailers plus a public boat
launch. Expansion also includes plans for restroom/shower facilities and additional
parking areas. The committee will meet with Mr. Nelson on Monday, September 8th.
