ROLL CALL Present: Cole, Darrow, Osborne Absent: Calar, Oberg, Schilling (excused) 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES - of June 17, 1987 Minutes were approved as submitted 3. NEW BUSINESS a Review for New Addition: C-Plaza/Moose Lodae - Wm Chenault Mr. Carmen Gintoli appeared as representative for Mr. Chenault and the Moose Lodge. Board Member Osborne asked for clarification of the target area, it is the area inside the square rather than the entire C-Plaza. Answer from Mr. Gintoli, that is correct. Board r� Member Osborne asked if it had been suggested that there be to seeding behind the building. Answer from Mr. Gintoli, the area y be seeded and grassed is where there is already a picnic table and barbeque surrounded by a wooden fence. The east side of the { building is for deliveries and borders Haller's junk yard. Board I Member Osborne noted that the planted material (cotoneastere) would be visible, however, they are planted on the side of the building that does not receive sun. Board Member Darrow asked if there were any chance a cyclone type fence could replace the sight obscuring wooden fence. Mr. Gintoli stated that his contract did not include anything dealing with the i. fence. The Board agreed that the intent of the ordinance did not appear _'-- to -be met in that all improvements would be inside the fence visible only to members, or in a position of little chance of survival. Mr. Gintoli agreed that the average person driving by would see none of the landscaping, however, he will need to i F' consult with Mr. Chenault before making any changes. The Board and Mr. Gintoli agreed that the area fronting the Spur Highway ` does need some attention. it was suggested that perhaps, as a =------ -- =-= — conmunity service effort, the Moose Lodge.members could-- _ the ROW. - ---- - --------------------- - - ----- The Board suggested perhaps some flowers or shrubs around w ere ' the power pole shows on the plan, or, a compromise in the past has The ROW been to take a parking place for use as a spot for a box. F A t�. L LANDSCAPING/SITE PLAN REVIEW BOARD July 7, 1987 Page 2 is the first visual impact to the mall and Moose Lodge building and at the present time is over run with weeds. Mr. Gintoli confirmed that the three alternatives discussed were: 1) plant some cotoneasters across the south face; 2) place some trees or shrubs in the parking lot; 3) or upgrade the ROW. The Board made clear the fact that these are not the only alternatives, merely suggestions, and the owner/developer is welcome to return with his suggestions. The Board agreed with the cotoneasters, and would like to see them continue the length of the..building, however, realizing the problems involved, would certainly be open to suggestions. It is unfortunate that the location of the building does not lend itself well to much upgrading. Discussion turned to the adjoining lot which is the Haller property and the impact of the junky atmosphere on the property under review. Planning Specialist Loper was asked to check on the status of the land and why they have not met the zoning ordinance which requires a sight obscuring fence around any junk yard. b. Amend Review for Alaska Statebank - Tree Cutting for Park Lot Linda Chivers of Alaska Statebank appeared before the Board to request an amendment to the plan approved January 2, 1987. Ms. Chivers explained that the bank intends to asphalt the remainder of Tract 7, Lits 2, 3, 5, & 6, Blk 1. Tract 7, Lots 20 are already cleared with Lot 5 being partially cleared. Lot 6 is partially cleared, however, there are alders and one aspen with a trunk of about 3" in diameter which will need to be cut. This will not eliminate all trees on the lot. The Board and Ms. Chivers discussed the progress on the entire project since January and Ms. Chivers was praised for the efforts thus far. Due to the efforts of Ms. Chivers to avoid cutting more trees then necessary during the paving process, the Board approved the plan and the two trees to be cut and recommend no further action unless Ms. Chivers finds it necessary to alter the plan minimally, which can be done administratively. 4. BOARD COMMENTS & QUESTIONS A copy of the supreme Court decision regarding building permits was provided to the Board for discussion and information. According to the City Manager, the attorney will be issuing a --statement regarding -how this decision -will Affect the-C.ity.___The Board reviewed the article and expressed the opinion that the article -appeared_ -to refor to more permanent types of conditions. - The planting of trees, flowers, or grass would not_.change Ouse of the land, structure, or type of business.

MOTIONt Councilwoman Monfor moved, seconded by Councilwoman proceeds, conditional nithe timehbendrive-time Motion passed by unanimous consent. B-4 Tom Thibodeaux, Paving CAP Runway Mr. Thibodeaux said he represented the Kenai squadron of CAP. They have been here 24 years. They are asking for help in getting taxiway A-3 to the CAP hanger paved. The CAP is non-profit, an auxiliary of the Air Force, their stress is search and rescue. There are 80 senior members, they are encouraging student members. The senior members are trained and brought up to date on all new things. The 22 students are trained. In 1986 they were involved in 127 searches. There are hundreds of hours flown by volunteers. They are available 24 hours a day. They do search and rescue for snow mobilers, hikers and tourists; patrol the shore lines for those in distress. They are in contact with Elmendorf Air Force Base and the Troopers. 43 lives have been saved and 26 assists in 1986. They have 3 aircraft based in Kenai, as well as civilian aircraft. Their fuel is paid for by the Air Force, but hyreKlhOgi300 of last 0.Teaanationaranzation, ever20000 people. They are the second -most active in the State. They have had front page exposure, that puts Kenai in front of the people. They are all volunteers. There are 2 paid people in the State. The Air Force pays for fuel and maintenance, the Troopers provide utilities and aircraft acquisition. All else is paid for by membership. A-3 runway is a 475' stretch of gravel. The City is paving adjacent to that. Props have been nicked by the gravel. They are asking the City to pave continuing to the CAP hanger. It is 501 wide, they only need 251. It would cost about-g13,000, the same as the rest of the work. Councilwoman Monfor asked if there was -additional -money in the paving project. Public works Director Kornelis replied -we -are using -FAA money on the taxiway, this would have to come from i KENAI CITY COUNCIL JULY 1, 1987 PAGE 4 General Fund. The vehicle parking and the road to that are State funds. Councilwoman Monfor asked, who owns the runway? City Manager Brighton replied, the U.S. Government. Councilwoman Monfor asked, why won't the FAA fund it? Mr. Brighton replied, FAA is a branch of the U.B. Government, FAA prohibits ADAP funding of private property. They consider this as private property. Mr. Thibodeaux added, it was FAA property before it was CAP. Mr. Kornelis explained, the grant is specific, we could not use it for lighting or vehicle parking. Any change in scope would have to have their approval. Councilwoman Monfor asked if this would quality for airport money. Answer - no. Mayor Williams noted the City has been interested in acquiring that 5 acres, it would lend itself to development. of the airport. He suggested the Airport Commission review the acquisition of this land and relocation of CAP. He added, the only method the City can use for paving would be from other funds that have been made available for roads and other projects. We have $915,000 in that account. He asked, what is the relationship of CAP to Air National Guard? Mr. Thibodeaux replied, if they moved into the area, they would take search 6 rescue from Elmendorf Air Force Base. It is an important mission in the State. They have been talking about taking the "Heres" away because of space, the F-15's have no space. The only reason CAP headquarters is at Elmendorf is because Anchorage has many headquarters facilities. We should pursue moving to Kenai, the Anchorage hanger is crowded. City Manager Brighton suggested Administration contact FAA to get a determination what ADAP funding can be spent r for. He added, the real problem is the equipment is there waiting word. Mayor Williams noted there is $62,000 left from road projects, is that grant money? Mr. Brighton replied, it is not general fund. It is speoifically for roads, it cannot qualify for a taxiway. Council agreed to submit this to the Airport Commission for review. C. PUBLIC HEARINGS C-1 Ord. 1220-87 - Increas.

ADMINISTRATION REPORTS I-1 City Manager City Manager Brighton spoke, a. He distributed the lobbyist contract. He noted it is not signed, the only changes are dates and method of payment. It is a year -long contract. if it meets with Council approval, he will sign. b. Rep. Navarre met with Mr. Brighton and the lobbyist 6-29-87. The Governor has vetoed Municipal Assistance and school bond funding. It is 15% reduction over the original intent, it was 12%. The City budget was put together with 20% so we are in good shape. o. There will be a small Capital Improvement budget, $200,000 for Kenai. He talked with Rep. Navarre, he thought no one would try to manipulate this. d. He suggested Council meet to decide goals so the lobbyist can begin work before Jan. 1988. e. He distributed a clipping regarding a Supreme Court decision on the rights of property owners. The Court ruled that anytime a planning A zoning body does anything to a property owner that he feels deprives him of value, the municipality is liable. No longer can building permits be used as leverage for things not in connection with the building. This will be important to local government. f. He and Borough Mayor Thompson agreed to a meeting regarding the closure of Kenai Elementary. The school representatives wanted to come. It was his feeling that if we do not have the support of the Assembly representatives, we cannot move on it. But he did invite the school Board president and School Superintendent. we suggested the School District offices move to the school. They have passed a bond issue to expand their facilities, the Borough has run out of room. This could be accomplished without a bond. Another suggestion was people Count. They will run 200 people through this program, they want to be in Kenai. It will eliminate the cost of utilities i custodial service to the Borough and provide rent income. He asked Council to attend the meeting. Also, the projections for the next 5 years predict there will not be enough students to open up the school. Councilwoman Monfor distributed a picture of a closed school and asked Mr. Brighton to show them what it looks like.

Dear Mayor Williams: This is in response to your June 18th letter concerning the recruiting market analysis of the Fairbanks area done in 1984 by Olson and Associates. The study you refer to was accomplished because personnel in the Department of Defense at the Pentagon felt Fairbanks could not support an Air National Guard unit from a recruiting standpoint. The funding to complete the demographic analysis was appropriated by _ the state legislatures at their initiative, and placed f in our department's budget for accounting and payment i purposes. The results of that analysis did help alleviate some of the Pentagon's concerns. With the question still remaining as to whether there will be a new Air Guard unit activated in Alaska it may :s be premature to initiate a demographic analysis of the Kenai at this time. As that question unfolds it may be worthwhile for you to consider initiating a population analysis.

I reviewed the appeal and have decided to accept your request for an adjustment to the population determination for your municipality from 6,434 to 6,546. This decision is based upon the special census conducted by the Kenai Peninsula Borough, which included a break down indicating the population of the City of Kenai. I find that the special census meets the requirements of the department and consequently provides an adequate basis for an adjustment to your city's population as requested. Based upon the results of this special appeal, the department will shortly be making final payments of state revenue sharing entitlementse if you have any further questions, please contact Jim Plasman or Bill Rolfzen at 465-4733.

Below is a summary of the two proposals. _......__ .... Unis a: - This proposal is based on the XE-520, which is a distributed processing system using micro -computers.

Additional disk storage is $5,175 for another 71 MB.--The 142 MB proposed is probably- - - - - - - ----- -------- enough for now, but more might be needed in the future. A 400 cps printer is equivalent to 180 1pm, which is not very fast (we currently f Page 2 have a 300 1pm printer). The next fastest printer Unisys has is 650 } 1pm at about $16,000 at much higher maintenance cost. The Unisys software is developed by Application Software Products, j Inc. of Spokane, Washington. It is installed in about 45 Washington cities. It is a small company (six employees). Their approach is more toward tailored development, rather than a fixed package. This type of approach should provide more specialized software tailored to our current procedures. Soldotna is currently using some of their software and is very satisfied. I talked with several users in Washington, and they seemed happy with the software and the support. IBM: This proposal is based on the System/36 mini -computer design using two terminals and one PS/2 micro -computer. This configuration includes 260 MB of disk storage, one 410 1pm printer, and one desk -top printer. The IBM software is developed by Mentor Systems, Inc. of Lexington, Kentucky. It is installed in over 800 locations, and they provide toll-free.support at no cost for one year to help in the installation. I called several cities that are using this system and received many positive comments. Their approach is a package that is modified at my _ request. Conclusions: I viewed demonstrations of the hardware and software of f both the IBM and Unisys systems. I have not had a demonstration of the Wang system; it is not available within our budget. I am convinced that either the Unisys or IBM system would be j satisfactory. Both are vast improvements over the current system. However, I believe the IBM is the best solution for the City of Kenai for the following reasons: 1) For a comparable price, the IBM has greater hard disk space. 2) For a comparable price, the IBM has a faster printer. 3) IBM has help screens built into the system software and the application software; Unisys only has help screens for system software. 4) IBM has a report generator; Unisys -does not. 5) IBM has a data -base program included in the operating system that will probably make the purchase of a fixed asset program unnecessary. Unisys does not provide this within the operating system. 6) IBM's proposal includes a spreadsheet; this is available through Unisys at a higher cost. i% Tnu ham Fran rinaana in Anchoraee on hardware and various system software; Unisys does not have such classes available. 8)--_I_believe that I'll be in abetter position to limit training _ costs with IBM due to the free telephone support, more extensive - manuals, and help screens. 9) Lower maintenance costs. =x -.i } i. page 3 10) Since the IBM is based on a mini -computer, terminals can be added inexpensively (less than $1,000 each). Considering cost, product, and support, I believe the best choice is the IBM. KMC 7.15.050 (6) provides for purchases under the contract of another government agency without a formal City of Kenai bidding process. I have obtained copies of contracts between the State of Alaska and IBM, and desire to purchase under that contract. All major components, including software, of the IBM system are listed in the contract. In some cases, IBM is giving the City greater discounts than in the State contract. A few items that we desire to purchase are not listed in the State contract. However, they are well below the bid limit of $6,500. On the 7-15-87 list of requisitions, you will find a purchase order to IBM for the configuration we desire. It includes an extra terminal and a kit to allow one existing PC-XT to be used as a terminal. I also expect to be ordering forms from Mentor and purchasing training/ installation services from Computer Application Services, Inc. from Anchorage. PROPOSAL UNDERSTANDINO_OF REQUESTFOR_PROPOSAL. It is understood that the City of Kenai wishes to commence a grantsmanship program to -supplement general funds in the development of certain services and projects. It is further understood that the City does not wish to use general funds for the promotion or development of such grants. Three terms of the RFP must be clarified. These are: 1. Qualified persons. The term is interpreted to mean an - - entity such as: an individual, -an --agency, or a business firm.- As a business firm of qualified persons, Kenai Economic Development Enterprises (KEDE) is the proposer of this program. 2. Wort; Exclusively on grant applications. This term is interpreted to mean that KEDE would not be employed by the City in any other capacity. Certain grants, both federal and state, require that the grant management be done by the grantee. In such cases it would be anticipated that KEDE would be a contracted service vendor. 3. Work on a fee basis. Many grants allow for a negotiated v grantee overhead to be built into the grant. When this is the :ase there will be no problem --the fee could be built in. Many } other grantors, however, will not permit the cost of grant development to be included in the grant. It would be in the best interest of the City, and KEDE, to apply for such grants if such address the priorities of the City. KEDE proposes that a "seed" fund be established from legitimate overhead revenues to compensate KEDE for agreed to charges against such grants. Additionally, inteindmatches by the City could be agreed to; such as office space, secretarial support, data gathering, supplies, telephone, related travel, or the like. SCHEDULE OF_MANAOEMENT FEES. 1- As indicated by the statements above, it would be self defeating to establish a single percentage schedule -for fees to develop 1 grant proposals. A set fee would be extremely lucrative on large grant proposals but very non-profitable on many of the small grants available for certain of the City's priorities. (KEDE has no interest in being an eleemosynary business.) Also, there tends to be many bad feelings by participants when it appears the grant }? fees are too lucrative, or small, regardless of the benefits to t both parties. Written agreements on fees prior to application would avoid any --misunderstandings.....__-Ther_efore,.. KEDE_propases a _ 't' variable rate of reimbursement be negotiated for each grant d_et_ermined_for submittal not to exceed the maximum 11 wable overhead cost allowed by the grantor, or fifteen - - t; '.,rcent, whichever is greater. For grantors not allowing an overhead fee for development, "seed" funds and inkind matching from the City would be negotiated to address the City's priorities and KEDE's fee requirements. Li Y fj� 1 PROGRAM_FCR_EuCCECS. The enclosed -flow chart (Appendix; "A") demonstrates the major steps R:EDE will follow to determine and develop grant f applications. Basically, the City Council will establish priorities to be addressed through the grantsmanship program. The f commissions and -committees established by the Council to address the priority areas will be advisory to KEDE. The advisory will be { for concept design, project review, and recommendation to the _. Council. KEDE will be responsible to research and coordinate the search for funding sources. All grant proposals would be recommended to the Council through the appropriate City -office.- No grant proposal - - would be made without Council approval. In this way, all details of the proposal would be worked out as to fee rates, management i requirements, liability, and so forth. The grant writing program steps are cyclic and will be reviewed continually as the grant proposal development progresses. i The enclosed Grant Development Model (Appendix "B") indicates the major step by step activities in the selection of request for proposals for proposal development. Plote that the authority for determination and approval rests with the City Council and City offices. The model is a road map and the more signs it has the easier it will be to follow. The activity flow chart and model do not determine needs, find resources, or write grants. These are proven tools, which, when placed in experienced hands, will result in successful funding. The principals of KEDE have extensive experience in developing grantsmanship programs, writing grants, and in getting projects funded through the political process. The principals have e)tensive contacts in local, Borough, State, and Federal agencies i and organizations. The qualifications of the principals are listed under resumes.

CITY OF KENAI „od e� �j„ MO FIDMAO KENAI, ALASKA emi TELEPHONE ws - M5 MEMORANDUM TO: Council Members City of Kenai FROM /im Rogers, City Attorney J14 City of Kenai DATE: July 9, 1987 RE: Lots 10, 11, 12, and 14, Block 1, CIIAP City of Kenai Lease Agreements/Beluga Development Corporation i Over the course of the past year, the City has been attempting to increase the rental rate for the above -referenced properties. It - now appears that Beluga wishes simply to quit the premises of the :•aove-referenced lots and Lot 13. See the attached letter of Stephen F. Frost. As has been the case in all past requests for rescission, it is a Council policy decision whether or not to allow the rescission. I am confident that the City could continue to exact lease payments from the lessees if that were the Council's wishes. Also, we have examined the issue regarding property taxes raised i by Mr. Frost and do not concur with his opinion that the City owes any amounts to Beluga Development Corporation. The only problem I have with Mr. Frost's suggestion appears in Paragraph 5 of the letter. In that paragraph, Beluga Development suggests that we indemnify Beluga for any claims which might be brought by the sublessee, Brinkerhoff. Brinkerhoff is leasing without a written lease agreement Lots 10, 11, 12 and 13 on a month -to -month tenancy. In lieu of indemnifying Beluga Development Corporation, I would ask the Council to authorize the ---' ----- -=- -' - Administration to negotiate a rescission with Beluga and a - 1 1 L 1 simultaneous written sublease on the same terms and conditions as Brinkerhoff's present sublease with Brinkerhoff. That way there would be no need to indemnify Beluga because they would be completely out of the picture. This arrangement, if possible, would be of benefit to all parties. Brinkerhoff has been a tenant for some time now and _ plays an important role in oil development within the City of Kenai. If the City, Beluga, and Brinkerhoff were able to come to an agreement,, I would anticipate that the matter would come back -=-. -- -- before Council -for a -final-approval of the new lease to Brinkerhoff and the simultaneous rescission of the Beluga leases.

Also, my client continues to be extremely interested in receiving reimbursement for the property taxes that were unlawfully charged him on the properties. However, in an effort to avoid litigation which will be costly, time consuming, and which would, in my humble opinion, 1 result in a judgment in favor of Beluga Development Corporation, ` my client has authorized me to offer the following proposed settlements 1. That my client quit and vacate the premises on or before July 10, 19871 2. That you fully release Beluga Development Corporation from all further responsibility or liability with regard to the leases on Lots 10, 110 12, 13, and 14, Block It -3 That. my --client will waive its claim to any reimbursement of the property taxes owed with regard to these L . A Tim Rogers, Esq. City of Kenai Block ;T June 26, 1987 Res Lots 10, 11, 12 & 14, Page 2 1, CIIAPt Lease Agreements 4. That my client will reconvey, together with the leased premises, any improvements, including the $15,000-$20,000 f fencer and 5: That the City of Kenai will continue to honor the ` Brinkerhoff lease and indemnify and hold harmless Beluga Development Corporation against any claims from Brinkerhoff for - - the breach of that lease should the City take any action. There is no written lease agreement but Brinkerhoff is occupying Lots 10, ll, 12, and 13 on a month -to -month tenancy. All of the claims with regard to these properties as i between the parties shall be fully released, one party against j t the other. Under the circumstances, I believe that the above proposal is fair and reasonable. This offer is contrary to the advice I have given my client. I am quite confident that my client is i not in violation of any of the lease agreements and I am further , 1- quite confident that the City/Borough owes my client for the property taxes previously unlawfully billed and paid. However, because the key officers of Beluga Development corporation have reached their retirement years, they are not particularly interested in pursuing litigtion in this matter at this time. This is the reason for the more than reasonable offer of settlement. Please rest assured that if the offer is 1 not accepted and the City does go forward with a forcible and entry a and detainer action, it will be met with stern opposition solid counterclaim and cross claim against the Borough. 'Please advise as to your client's intentions in this matter 1 at your earliest opportunity. r'• Thank you for your time and consideration in this mattere cer i a 8FFsdc - x cc$ Client i - -- - City Manager, Kenai J July 10, 1987 �rg CITY OF KENAI %Od ea pai 4 4"„ 210RIDALGO KEW,ALASKA 99611 TELEMONE983, 85 CERTIFILD MAIL N0.

It is not up to the administration however to grant such rescissions. The City Council makes the decision Whether or not to grant rescissions. Accordingly, I an placing the matter on +' the agenda for the July 15, 1987 Kenai City Council Meeting. i would urge either yourself or a representative of Beluga Development Corporation to be at the meeting. The meeting begins at 7:00 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers. On the whole I felt the offer conveyed in your June 26, 1987 letter is very reasonable should the Council choose to allow rescission. The only problem I foresee is Suggestion No. 5 that the City indemnify and hold harmless Beluga Development .� E Corporation against any claims from Brinkerhoff for the breach of the lease should the City take any action. This is something ;j that I would not recommend to Council. What I would propose is that the three parties involved here, the City, Beluga Development, and Brinkerhoff, work out an arrangement in writing whereby Brinkerhoff signs a written month- _____.__.____.__ to -month lease with the. City and simultaneously a rescission of lease for Beluga Development with Brinkerhoff and the City. That way Beluga would be completely out of the picture and there would be no need for the City to indemnify Beluga. This is the recommendation I anticipate making to the Council. If Brinkerhoff is not willing to enter into the same agreement with the City that they have with Beluga to continue occupancy of the premises, you could evict them one month hence. If Brinkerhoff is occupying on a month -to -month tenancy, that should not be a problem. In that case Beluga would have no reason to fear recourse from Brinkerhoff once they had been lawfully removed from the premises. Admittedly this would probably not t the most efficient way to go about the matter. However, if Brinkerhoff is unwilling to sit down with both Beluga and the City to work out something, this might be a suggestion you can make to them. I look forward to hearing from you.

The continuity offered by a smooth transition from promoting from within the organization has a strong history of success. Paula Easley, our retiring Executive Director, had great vision in this regard.

With the steep decline In state oil revenues, Alaska must look for the best return on Its income. We need to Invest In projects that will stimulate our economy and create new jobs and wealth for our real - dents. In these depressed times, is the $400,000,000 we now spend on the Permanent Fund Dividend the best use of this money? To get more bang for our buck and achieve a much greatereoonomicpunch, we would be wise to consider the application of this annual disburse- ment for major Investments in Alaska. Think what equity the dividends would give the state for Investment In Alaska. Think what equity the dividends would give the state for Investment In highways, ports and rail lines. Think what borrowed funds such an annuity could leveragel Our state should and could have vast capital projects underway - projecls which actually create new wealth through the generation of fresh revenues. The state could lend or Invest In order to Induce private development, and spend directly on traditional public sector projects. Wouldn't it be wonderful t our friends, neighbors and chil- dren could find good, rewarding jobs right here at home? The gas line from the North Slope to an Ice -free tidewater port may need state participation to put It In the funning with world class Investors who want to know that the State of Alaska (1) believes In the project, and (9) will not harass the project so that huge coal overruns result. Think of the opportunities that would be created through new revenues generated from a gas pipeline. Today, the Alaska Railroad could profitably be extended north to the Yukon. Immediate and massive attention should determine other expansions of the line. The newly realized possibilities of super conductors should be seized upon by the state to an M we could effectively participate in the "global energy grld" which may attach the Alaska sub -continent to Japan and Sibefla. Can our vast generating capacities available from hydropower, coal, gas and peat now find an outlet In power- starved areas of the world? Roads: Basically we are the land without.

Henri warned members of Congress last month that new legislation aimed at eliminating a vftel an- nual appropriation for timber management In the Tongass National Forest would make the livelihoods of many Alaskans depen- dent upon the outcome of an annual fight between preservationists end loggers. H.R. 1516 would annul the Alaska Na- tional Interest Lands Conservation Act ac- cord of 1980 to eliminate the $45 million Tongass Timber Supply Fund. The fund was set up to pay for making Tongass timber available for commercial harvest. It was the main element of a compromise between environmentalists and loggers to make up for economic losses when much of the high -quality timber lands were given Wilderness status under ANILCA. The Act placed 82 percent of the Ton- gass off-Ilmlts to harvesting and forced In- dustry to adjust to smaller, lower quality loge in less accesslble locations on a com- mercial Amber base of only 1.7 million acres. The Tongass Is the largest national forest covering 16.9 million acres. 'if it becomes the mandate of Congress that each year the fate of the commercial timber base of the nation's largest national forest should be debated anew, with the outcome uncertain during the many months of argument and discord, then let us also at the same time reargue the status of the parks and wildernesses which were taken from the working Tongass National Forest In 1980," Henri testified In Washington, D.C. last month. Henri noted that this Is the second year In a row that the Resource Development Council has come to Washington to fight for the Tongase funds. 'As the practice has developed lately, the jobs of our woodsmen and the survival of our already cir- cumscribed Industry go on the One every year, but the statue of our five million acres of new single (no) purpose set asides In the Tongaes Is never questioned or con- te9we The RDC President added, "there Is no heavenly ordinance guaranteeing the robustness and vigor of our American eco- nomy, or that our exports will at least equal our imports' He continued,there Is always the denger that our country willgrove weary and retiring — preferring to merely look at the trees grow old and rot In place, Instead of cutting the mature ones, sending their products to the foreign nations of the world, and witnessing a fresh, lush second growth, sturdily and quickly giving Alaska and our nation's trading partners better Timber harvesting in the Tongass National Forest is a vital component of the South- east Alaska economy. quality and hlghervolumeforest products." In his Washington, D.C., presentation, Henri warned this Is not the time to discour- age Industry recovery by adopting policies and actions which hinder new growth. He said the proposed Congressional Initiatives serve only to cast a shadow over one of the few bright spots in the Alaske economy. The manufacturing sector of the Alaska economy, which includes the timber Indus- try, grew by some 500 new jobs in the 12 months prior to February. After six years of declining prices and demand for Alaska products, the weakening dollar abroad Is creating new demand. For the first time In many years, the timber Industry Is optimle- tlo about Its future. In 1987 there were substantial increases In logging volumes In Southeast Alaska. This Is partly due to a restructuring of the Industry, Improvement In markets and a substantial lowering of log costs. Henri polatedoutthattheUmber Industry plays a critical role In the Southeast Alaska economy.

SALMON FISHING - FORECAST. IS .EXCELLENT State Fisheries_ Biologists are predicting a commercial harvest �� of salmon in Cook Inlet similar to last year which was excellent. PLUS this year because of a predicted poor Bristol Bay Run of Sockeye Salmon the price will start high and could possibly end up higher than ever before. Commercial fisherman are very optomistic SR#2 BOX 852 0 SOLOOTNA• ALASKA 99069 0 (907) 2a5811 or (907) 283 9430 0 �1 NEW OIL WELL BEING DRILLED IN KENAI CITY LIMITS Hopes are very high in Kenai that the new oil well being drilled in the city limits by Uni-Cal will be a high producer of crude. Uni-Cal is very optomistic about the well which is costing more than $30 million to drill. They say the hole is being sunk in what appears to be a totally new field and not a part of the rich Swanson River, Beaver Creek or Cook Inlet oil pools. Huge amounts of natural gas have already been discovered in the area. If oil is found it will be piped to the Nikiski refineries and another well just south of the Kenai River in the city limits will be drilled immediately. This is the first time that an oil well has been drilled on private property in the area and about fifty Kenai residents stand to collect on their mineral rights if the well is productive. i NEW KENAI RIVER CITY DOCK UNDER CONSTRUCTION t The new multi -million dollar dock being constructed at the mouth of the Kenai River in the City of Kenai is expected to be completed this year. The new facility will serve the commercial fishing industry as well as some of the frieght needs of the area. In addition, the City of Kenai has just installed I a new sports -fishing boat ramp and a new small boat floating slip IIII' in the Kenai River at the city dock area.

BOX 46B SOLOOTNA, AK 998B9 B07-2W-421B L ;I rNr-o -tp AML NEWSLETT., 8, No. 2 AML Insurance Program — Where We Are and Where We Are Going The Alaska Municipal League Insurance Program will continue to provide Insurance coverage for its members as of July 1 while the AML Board, together with its newly ap- pointed Interim Board of Trustees, continues the development of the AML Joint Insurance Arrangement for implementation next year. Although other organizations, brokers, and insurance companies are pursuing individual or larger municipalities in the softening market, the AML Board is committed to pro• viding coverage for all municipalities and to establishing a long-term risk management and financing progam to assure insurance availability and affordability. The success of these efforts depends on the commitment of the current and future participants —the AML members. July continuation ALASKA MUNIMAL 0 July 1987 Leonard lane, consultant to the Alasla Munidpal League Road of Directors for its strategic Planning Process, leads discussion on challenges and opportunities facing the League. Working with its broker, Frank B. Hall and Company of Alaska, the AML has negotiated Strategic Planning Process groups developed statements about direc- modified program to continue workers Well Underwa tions they would like to see the League go �mpensation, general liability, and auto y and some ways to get there. liability coverage through the Old Republic Company beginning July 1. This is the re- newal date for over 100 municipalities and school districts currently participating in the AML Insurance Program. As of that date, AML member municipalities will be able to renew their insurance coverage under the AML Insurance Program through its broker, Frank B. Hall. The Old Republic Insurance Company has required several modifications to the pro. gram in order for it to continue. Although the potential for increased costs does exist, the modifications also provide for greater cov- erage and a possibility of premium savings. Beginning In July, as required by Old Re- public, the AML Insurance Program will cover losses up to $1,000,000 (the current limit is $SWO,o00) through the purchase of $500,000 excess coverage over and above the first SSW ,o00 coverage through Old Republic. While this extra coverage will result in additional premiums, this level of protection was not available before for our members who wanted or needed it.

Over 40 percent of the surveys were returned. An indication of the responses is the grades given the AML in the first survey question: A-19.4 percent; 8-53J percent; C-25.1 percent; D-1.7 percent; and F-A percent. A wealth of other data was also obtained from the survey responses. Other information about AML's image was gathered in personal interviews conducted by Leonard Lane and Larry Crawford of Leonard Lane & Associates, who were hired by theBoard to facilitate the Board's plan- ning activities and assist it in writing a strategic plan. The surveys and interviews were under- taken as part of the year -long strategic plan- ning process begun by the AML Board earlier this year. This information and the Board's own views are being Incorporated Into the plan. - - AML Board members and staff as well as a Technical Review Committee (TRC) of ap. pointed municipal officials have put in long hours evaluating the strengths and weaknes- ses of the organization, the threats and op- portunities it faces, and assumptions about the future. At meetings in early June, these "The world of local government has :hanged significantly since the League was ormed in 1950;' said Scott A. Burgess, AML Executive Director. "The efforts of the Board and its Technical Review Committee to de. velop goals and a work plan will insure that the League remains a strong organization meeting the needs of its members!' A draft plan will be reviewed by Board and TRC members in July, and the final plan will be ready for Board approval in August. The strategic plan will be shared with the AML membership in a comprehensive presenta- tion during the annual conference In No. vember.

May 5,1987 Dear Governor Cowper, Last summer the State of Alaska realized that it was spending too much money and promptly froze capital project appropriations to municipalities. Since then, we've heard re- uce St t sspem g, to increase Sttements of.the ate trevenues, and to tighten belts. Municipalities have been told to expect 20% cuts in State Rev- enue Sharing and Municipal Assistance with further cuts to follow, and you yourself have stated that the one area in which there Is still a lot of fat to trim is the area of aid to muni- cipal governments-1 cannot agree with your assessment here. Last fall our city administrator resigned his position -he saw the tneed to reduce city ex- ecincreased public n ileeds with rof educed revento . ues, of trying to comply with mountains of federal and state regulations, and of working under constant public scrutiny with no chance of personal advancement -so he re- signed. Because his decision was voluntary, he was denied some unemployment benefits which may otherwise have been available to him. At the same time, because of the perceived need to reduce city expenses, the position of Nulato city administrator was left vacant, and the duties of administrator were left to the city clerk, cittyy treasurer, and to the (unpaid) Mayor of Nulato. While we find it very dif 1. cull to keep up with demands placed on us, there is increased pressure to reduce our ad- ministrative expenses. As city treasurer, I can we that there are areas where the city can operate more effi- ciently and reduce some expenses; but 1 also see the need for increases in programs and services. At present, no city employee is scheduled to work more than 40 hours per week, our highest wage rate for regular employees is sio.bo per hour, and we have no retirement benefits of awkind. Because insurancerates are so high, we cannot afford general liabil- Ny, and have only minimal property insur- ance, we do not have the time or expertiseto fill all the different requests for information - - for-joint-insurmumprograms.- -- _ _ - - Some of our employees need additional training, but available programs are either in- appropriate or else it costs too much to send someone in for a one- or two-day workshop ftP2 of questionable value. The economic devel- opment workshops that wave sent people to have produced little In the way of practical ideas that can be applied to our community. In the meantime, we plod along through the debris of "local government" restricted by regulations and policies which are difficult to understand or implement on the local level: it took a full day Just to research the for- mat for changes to our local curfew or- dinance; we spent thousands of dollars to comply with regulations for our tiny Head - start building; we spent many hours over the procedure for requesting a change in the use of a public building -the proposal for change was a result of declining revenues; we spent a lot of time and energy to provide public opposition to the issuance of a new package liquor store license in our area but the ABC board granted the license despite public op- position; and so on. it is -frustrating enough trying to control public spending while meeting public needs. It is even more frustrating trying to meet the needs of the various state and federal agen- cies. Under these circumstances, it is difficult to understand why funding for municipalities must be cut by 20% when permanent divi- dend fund checks are being increased to the highest level in yearsl The man who wishes his sons to carry out his legacy should not spend all his wealth purchasing candy for his grandchildren while reprimanding his sons. You've often said that you welcome com- ments and opinions -these are just some of my comments.) believe that your proposals are unfair to the municipalities, especially to the small rural communities, the Nulatos and Kaltags and so on. I agree with the Alaska Municipal League's position that reductions in state funding of municipal programs should be fair and should be approximately the same as the reduction effected in the budget for state operations. 1 also feel that if the State expects munici- palities to bear the burden of reduced reve- nues, it should loosen up the restrictions and regulations placed on the municipalities and allow for some flexibility to meet local condt- tionsand needs. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Andy Dumy, Treasurer City of Nulato, Alaska RAMC To Welcome Visitors The Alaska Association of Municipal Clerks will host IIMC members from through- out Region IX (Alaska, Oregon, Washington, California, and Hawaii) at a regional meetinn to be held in conjunction with the AAMC Advanced Academy in November. The meeting and academy courses will be held in Anchorage November 8.10, just prior to the AML annual conference. RAMC President Linda Murphy, CMC, says she is expecting newly elected IIMC President Jack J. Pbots, CMC, Associate Clerk of Scarborough, On- tario, Canada, to attend the Anchorage ses• slon. Linda and the members of the educa- tion committee are also lining up some ex- cellent speakers for the Academy sessions. More information will be forthcoming when plans are final. Managers Polish Communication Skills The Spring 1987 Alaska Municipal Man- agement Association training session provid- ed a chance for managers to conduct mock press conferences, ask difficult questions of each other while posing as problem employ- ees and media representatives, and strength- en their skills In dealing with conflict. Susan and Peter Glaser, both Ph.D.s in communi- cations, presented a day -and -a -half sessior entitled "Organizational Communication. Managing Culture In City Government" to 22 managers who gathered in Juneau in late March for training and a business meeting. The Glasers, from Eugene, Oregon, cov- ered such topics as active listening, the power of praise, coping with criticism by responding nondefensively, and beingdirect, not aggressive, in raising Issues. The section on effective presentations included tsmises on presenting information convincingly and on dealing with the media. Managers had opportunities to role play and in many in- stances proved to be quite hard for their col- leagues to handle. All agreed, however, that they had learned a lot from the training opportunity. AML NEWSLETTER 10S Municipal Way • Suite 301 0 Juneau, Alaska 99801 6 (907) S86.1325 STAFF: Scott A.

The State and Local legal Center was created in 1983 with a private grant funds by several national public interest organizations to represent state and local government interests before the U.S. Supreme Court. The Legal Center is now try- ing to secure permanent funding through the creation of a trust fund. The AML Board has donated i1,SW on behalf of all local govem- ments in Alaska and encourages members to I join the cities of Fairbanks, Kenai, and Palmer by contributing to the trust fund individually. In a joint letter to municipal officials, the executive directors of the National League of Cities, the U.S. Conference of Mayors, and the International City Management Associa- tion said, For more than a decade, decisions made by the United States Supreme Court have been seriously eroding the author- Ity and fiscal integrity of local govern- ment. The Court has removed our (state and local government) anti-trust exemp- tion, blanketed us into the Fair Labor Standards Act, questioned many of our land use and zoning powers, upset local labor practices and policies bar determin- ing when public safety employees can retire, opened up municipalities to ex- posure for a host of environmental ac- tions and redefined municipal func- tions —to name a fewl The State and Local Legal Center is admin- istered by the Academy for State and Local Government and Is staffed by Chief Counsel Benna Solomon and other attorneys who: • monitor the Court's calendar for cases af- fecting state and local governments • assist state and local attorneys who must analyze, prepare for, and argue the consti- tutional questions of the case by helping with briefs and conducting moot courts • file friend -of -the -court briefs in the most crucial and far-reaching cases • publish "Court Report;' a monthly news- letter, to inform all state and local govern- ment officials about current and upcom- ing court cases • contribute to legal scholarship by sponsor- ing seminars and symposia on Issues of state and local government advocacy be- fore the Court. The State and Local Legal Center reviews and considers all noncriminal cases before the Supreme Court that- involve state and local government interests. lypically, these are questions about: FJ4,constitutional- allocation of power be--- tween state and local governments and the federal government • financing of state and local governments regulatory authority of state -and local governments The legal Center was founded with a de. elopment grant from the Pew Memorial rust and the contributions of seven national rganizations whose members are immedl- tely affected by, and ultimately responsible or, the changes that come from Supreme Court rulings. The ,Big Sever(' organizations re the National League of Cities, the U.S. Conference of Mayors, the International City Management Association, the National Asso- ciation of Counties, the National Conference of State Legislators, the National Govemors' Association, and the Council of State Gov- ernments. (The National Institute of Munici- pal law officers [NIMLO) has recently Joined n supporting the Legal Center.) While the need for the legal Center has continued to grow, the private funding is concluding. Therefore, the sponsoring state and - local government organizations have agreed to assume responsibility for assuring the continued support of the Center through the creation of a Legal Trust Fund made up of contributions of their members. The state government associations have a goal of rain ing $2.5 million and the local government associations, another $2.5 million. The pro- ceeds from the Fund will permanently fi- nance the work of the Legal Center. Contri- butions are based on the population of the contributing municipality, as follows: State and Local legal Center Proposed Municipal Contribution Schedule (one-time payment) Amount of Municipal Population Payment 200,000-500,000 $10,000 100,000-200,000 5,000 50,000-100,000 2,000 25,000. 50,000 Soo 10,000. 25,000 250 51000- 10,000 1S0 below 5,000 100 In a letter to NLC Executive Director Alan Beals outlining the AML Board's support of the State and Local Legal Center, AML Execu- tive Director and NLC Board Member Scott Burgess wrote, "In light of the recent loss by local governments and the legal Center be- fore the U.S. Supreme Court In First English Evangelical Lutheran Church of Glendale v. County of Los Angeles, the takings case, this show of support on behalf of Alaska's muni- cipalities is appropriate and timely." The re- cent court case could have serious Implica- tions for a municipaliq/s zoning powers and controlling land use for the public health, safetyand welfare.The AML Board, in making its $1,500 con- tribution, also requests that municipalities contribute -individually to the Legal Center - Trust Fund.

New Revenue Sharing Regulations Coming Soon The Department of Community and Re- gional Affairs has Issued proposed regula- tions for the State Revenue Sharing program In light of the lawsuh brought by the Munici- pality of Anchorage against the state earlier this year. Notices of hearings were sent to municipalities and the hearings are sched- uled for June 30. In addition, the passage of Hui 90, the "prior year data" bill, means that regulations to Implement it are also being developed. In an interdepartmental memo, Jim Plas- man, Local Government Specialist for the department's Municipal and Regional Assis- tance Division, said, "With the new pro- posed regulations resulting from the MOA lawsuit, the passage of chapter 10, SLA 1987 (HB 90, the 'prior year data' bill), and a late closeout of FY 87 because of the lawsuit, this coming years revenue sharing will be more than a little unsettled:' Determination Processes. As a result of the MCA lawsuit, the state made a commitment to revise regulations so that all recipients of revenue sharing will understand how the program works. Under the new regulations proposed for FY 88, there will be three sepa- rate determination processes. 1) a clarified population determination procedure, with the determination sent out in September, re- quests for adjustment by November 1, and appeals by December 1; 21 a more compre- hensive full and true value determination procedure, with determinations complying with the provisions of Title 14 that require determination in October and allow appeal only to superior court; and 3) a clarified millage equivalent and miscellaneous serv- ice determination process, retaining the Oc- tober 15 initial determination and December 15 determination dates now in law, but rarely adhered to. prior Year Data. The basic premise of HS 90 is to separate out the year of application and calculation from the year of payment. OCRA proposes to use FY 88 data for FY 89, except for statutorily mandated calendar year rev- enues, and then adopt regulations by the be- ginning of FY 89 to revise deadlines for future years. This will allow the department to de- velop regulations to administer the program under the new law in a more thoughtful, comprehensive manner, with ample oppot- tunity for public input.

City clerks from Great Britain, the Netherlands, Israel, South Africa, New Zea- land, and Australia joined clerks from Can- ada and the United States, giving an Interna- tional flavor and a broadened sense of the profession of municipal clerk to those atten- ding.

Congratulations, Edithl Clerks Institute Well Received The annual Municipal Clerks Institulk. held in Anchorage in late March, attracted 46 participants from 42 Alaskan munlcipalf- ties. With Robert C. "Chuck" Cary of Seattle as main precentor, the Institute focused on records management in a broad sense —in- cluding such topics as what is a file; what comes first, the data or the document; how to establish file systems, what to keep, and for how long; and how to organize the files you do keep so you can find what you need. Chuck's extensive background and sensi- tivlty to the diversity of Alaska's municipali- ties proved to be a good combination, and the advice and experiences shared by AAMC's more -experienced clerks were es- pecially valuable to those attending. Senior clerks contributed extensively duringthe rec- orris management sessions, and Ruby Smith Veldkamp, CMC, and Lejane Ferguson of An- chorage; Janet Whelan, ,CMC, Kenai; and Karen Miles, CMC, Ketchikan, presented workshops on topics ranging from parlia- mentary procedure to cemetary records maintenance.

Local Government Once Again judged as "Doing The Best joW' by RandyArndt "dons City Weekly Local government is doing the best job of providing according to this ers the most for annual survey of "Changing Public Attitudes on Government and Taxes;' prepared for the Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations. The preference for local government came out when more than 1,000 people in this "From which rleveel of goveroupwere rnnmentt do you feel you get the most for your money — federal, state, or locair' just behind the 33 percent response favor- ing local government, there were 32 percent who said the federal government does the best job. The states trailed with only 22 per- cent giving them top marks, while 13 percent of the respondents gave no answer. The question is one that has been asked regularly since ACIR initiated the survey in 1972, and this marks the fifth time in the past eight years that local government has come out on top or tied at the top. Responses to another question left little question that tax reform enjoys broad public support._ For _the _eighth year in a raw, the federal income tax was the cigar choice as the worst, or least fair, when compared to —local property -taxes, -state income taxes, or �e sales taxes. he federal levy was ranked worst by 37 percent of those expressing an opinion. Next was the property tax with 28 percent disfa. voting it, followed by state sales taxes,17 per- cent, and state Income taxes, 8 percent, while 10 percent gave no response. Despite the unpopularity of federal in- come taxes, the survey found that cutting government services and taxes continues to lose favor among people. In 1979, 39 per- cent favored decreasing services and taxes, but that figure declined steadily to 31 per- cent in 1986. The group wanting services and taxes to remain about as they are has grown from 46 to 51 percent, and the group want- ing Increases has grown from 6 to 9 percent. Another question about bringing federal spending more into line with revenues found that a majority of people, 53 percent, would prefer to see defense spending cut, up from 5o percent in 1984. Only 29 percent said other programs should be cut, down from 31 percent in the 1984 survey. The survey, conducted in May 1986 by the Gallup Organization, also asked people to choose what they thought would be the best way for their local government to raise more revenue. This meant that people were an- swering the survey questions just as the Senate was acting on its version of tax reform legislation. The top choice was for user fees, but the 49 percent response was down from the 55 percent preference given when the question was last asked in 1981. local sales taxes were the next choice, with 26-percent, up from 21 percent in 1981. Nine percent opted for local Income taxes, and only 7-percent said the property tax would be the best way to go.

Aleutians East Borough — Approval Aheadfif Akutan, Cold Bay, False Pass, King Cove, Nelson lagoon, Fort Muller, and Sand Point have much in common —they are all located In the eastern Aleutian Islands and their economies are closely tied to fishing, parti- cularly (in recent times) the growing bottom - fish industry. if long-term efforts of the Aleu- tians East Coastal Resource Service Area (CRSA), the Aleutians East Reglonal Strategy Board, and other concerned citizens bear fruit, the cities and their citizens may soon have something else in common —they'll be members of the Aleutians East Borough. A petition was recently filed for the incor- poration of the area, over 26,000 square miles with a population of about 2,017, into a second-class borough. Informational meet- ings and a Local Boundary Commission hearing on June 26 in Cold Bay have given area residents a chance tolearn more about the process of becoming a borough and the advantages to be gained through incorpora- tion. Supporters of borough organization are hoping to include the issue on the October municipal election ballot. An organized borough must, by state law, exercise at least three areawide responsi- bilities —taxation, planning and zoning, and education. The law provides, however, that a borough may delegate the planning and zoning responsibilities back to the cities. In addition, a responsibilities borough formation would mean that -the area's schools would be gov- erned by a single school board, there are ways a borough can contract with local school districts to allow local control of cer. tain educational issues such as the hiring and firing of teachers and program planning. Supporters of borough organization recog- nize that they have a tough challenge ahead, but they feel that the regions economic and political position will be greatly enhanced If local government is strengthened by the for- mation of the Aleutians East Borough. Chief among the benefits of incorporation are the ability to speak with one political voice on Issues affecting the region, the ability to re- tain the quality of education the area wants, and the ability to undertake local financing of capital projects. Of particular importance, because of declining state and federal sup- port for local government, is the flexibility to undertake capital projects that will support and encourage development of.the fishing and on -shore seafood processing industries, which can provide continued growth and economic stability in the region. In addition, supporters say that, in light of changes in the political climate, borough in- corporation is a tool to retain a balance of power between Alaska's rural and urban areas and to ensure a stronger say about what goes on in the East-Aleutlans area -and - the way the region grows. The Aleutians East Borough could become tfie-i3th regional -government lit the state, following last years incorporation of the Northwest Arctic Borough, the first since 1972.

A major portion of the annual conference in Anchorage, Nov- ember 11-14, will be devoted to the IIA and to explaining the benefits and mechanics of the program to the AML members. The AML has responded to its member- ship's need to address the problems of in- surance availability and affordability. In- surance is currently available to all members through the AML Insurance Program with Old Republic Insurance Company. While the traditional insurance market has softened somewhat and others are attempting to com- pete selectively with the AML program, his- torical trends suggest that a crisis similar to that experienced over the last two years will again drive these markets away and make municipal liability and other coverages pro- hibitively expensive or nonexistent. The best solution is to take control of our risk management future and to pursue the IIA alternative to the traditional Insurance in- dustry. As Mayor Dick Green of Rochester, New Hampshire (population 19,000), said at recent national meeting about his involve- -lent with the New Hampshire Municipal Association insurance pool, "The best defense [against commercial insurance un- availability and unaffordabllityj is a good of- fense." And he told AML Executive Director Burgess that he wholeheartedly supported the New Hampshire program and its long- term savings potential even though it cost his city $7,000 more for Insurance the first year he joined) With the full commitment of AML members, Alaskan municipalities will join others across the country in reaping the benefits of a self-insurance pool.

Workshops ,and speakers covered a wide range of topics, many of them dealing with public lands is. sues, but at the top of the list was the Ad- ministration's attempt to cut forest/mineral receipts payments. (In 1985, Alaska got $18 million from these programs.) The Adminis- tration wants to cut the payments by deduc- ting administrative costs and using "net" receipts rather than paying from "gross" receipts as has been done since the natural resource revenue sharing program began in the early 1900s. As this newsletter goes to press, it appears that this attempt has been defeated, but borough officials will want to keep informed about efforts to change the payment formulas. "Many of our government, academic, and political leaders are out of touch with the common people ... Our national leaders live In an Insulated environment, learning about America from the Washington Post or the Wag Street journal,"- was- part of -the message conference delegates heard from -Dr.-Philip Burgess, president of-the_Washing..- ton-based Paul Douglas Foundation and former president of the Western Governors' Policy Office, Or. Burgess, in a speech focusing on the challenge of developing the Western states and thinking about the West as a region, jammed his presentation with statistics and criticisms of the federal government. He said that our leaders work at too high a level of abstraction and are not in touch with pea plds main concerns —their families, farms, j and education. He noted the diversity and extent of demographic and economic changes that have occurred in the. U.S., among them the aging of the society and the declining standard of living. Our older Americans can't afford to ignore the needs of the educational system, he said, because the people who will be supporting them in their old age will be products of that system. An interesting statistic he mentioned was that between 1949 and 1959, an average American worker could expect his or her wages to increase 63 percent. Between 1959 and 1969, the average worker could expect to see an increase of 49 percent. However, between 1973 and 1983, the average workers real wages decreased 1 percent. Attending the conference from Alaska were Betty Glick, Kenai Peninsula, WIR Board member, Paul Chlinw,.-Fairbanks-.-- North Star Borough, who was recently chosen by the_Boarci of the Alaska Municipal League to represent our state on the national - - NACo Board, and Chrystal Smith, AML Pro- grams Manager.

FLSA Regulations Applied The final regulations implementing the 1985 Amendments to the Fair Labor Stan. dams Act (FLSA) were published on January 16,1987, and they went into effect 30 days after that date. Significant changes include; • Excluding public employees not subject to civil service laws, their personal staffs, and officials in policy -making positions ap• pointed by elected officials. • Establishing the existence of "agreement" without employees actually working over- time and accepting compensatory time in lieu of overtime pay. • Allowing employees who transfer from positions subject to the higher compensa• tory time cap (480 hours) to a position subject to the lower cap (240 hours) to carry over any hours in excess of the lower cap. The FLSA also provides that no addi. tional compensatory time can be accrued by employees until the number of banked hours falls below 240. • Clarifying the rights of employees —upon termination —to cash in unused coMpew-' satory time at the average rate for the last - three years of -employment fthe-dweeyear- - period immediately prior to termination) or at the final rate, whichever is higher.
