Honorable Mayor Williams, Council Members:
---
I am writing to ask that the extension for another year of the
Kenai Landfill permit be denied.
This landfill is a contributing factor to the decline of property
values in the area. It is nearly impossible for homeowners in
Mommsen Subdivision to sell their homes. Prices have declined
_
more than in other areas of the city. Only one home has sold in
Mommsen Subdivision in the past year.
People have told me that they would not live between the dump
and the prison. In time the prison should be accepted by most
'
as necessary, if not desireable to live next to. The landfill
is not necessary in that location.
-
The Kenai Peninsula Borough solid waste department has known for
many years that this eyesore needed to be removed. It was voted
the (I voted against allowing an extension)
_._.
on when I was on council,
and several times since. If another year extension is given it
.,
will be another year before anything is done to locate another
}h
site.
}?
y`.
I ask that you vote against an extension for the landfill and
.
'f.
for the people in your city.
`'
Thank you for taking time to read my views.

Sincerely,
Ile

Dear Bill:
Attached you will find a memorandum from Catherine Mayer who
has responsibility for overall landfill managementAs you can
i
see, the length of the use of the Kenai landfill s central to
the issues she must face.
I would request that the City of Kenai consider extending
the time allowed for operation of the landfill. The Borough is
in the process of reevaluating all of its solid waste require-
ments, as well as our facilities. We have found that the site at
Elephant Lake is less desirable than originally thought, and that
we may need to line any landfill in the future. We are on a two
pronged approach in reexamining waste disposal. We are looking
at other sites which may have less development costs, and at
incineration.
I would further request that I be allowed to present to the
council what our problems are and discuss with them where we are
heading.
on. I remain
Respectfully yours,
Don Gilman
Borough Mayor

MEMORANDUM
TO: MAYOR DON GILMAN
THROUGH:'j2 KEN BROWN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
FROM: El' CATHERINE MAYER, SOLID WASTE TECHNICIAN
DATE: MARCH 15, 1988
SUBJECT: KENAI LANDFILL EXPANSION
Excavation of the final trench at the Kenai Landfill is
scheduled to begin within the next few weeks. The trench
is estimated to be approximately 90• x 1000'.:.Zt is im-
perative that excavation begin immediately as it usually
takes two months to complete.'
Resolution No, 86-71 City of Kenai, granted an extension
of 18 months ( which has since been extended by 6 months).
The Resolution also made reference to expanding the site
by 300' x 10001. 'The extensions put the closure date at
November 30, 1988. The additional trench would not be
full until the end of 1989.
A new operations and maintenance contract needs written
and out to bid in the next month. We also need a new
Printer for the scales. These items are dependent upon
our exact date of closure for the Kenai Landfill. That
is why I hesitate taking for granted that they will not
require us to close by November 30, 1988 whether or not
we have a trench full.
i
Please let me know as soon as possible if I should be
writing the new contract to December of 1989 instead
of November 1998.
Thank you very much.

Mr. Bill Conyers, Borough Engineer
Kenai Peninsula Borough
P. O. Box 850
Soldotna, Alaska 99669
Dear Bill:
As per our recent telephone conversation in which you
expressed a concern and a need for the Borough to request a
six month extension on the present landfill site and your
proposal that the Borough would provide sand to the City of
Kenai if the City of Kenai would agree to the extension.
At the regular Kenai City Council meeting of September 16,
the proposal was made to the Council and the Council agreed
they Would consent to a six month extension on the present
landfill site in return for the Borough providing up to
15,000 C.Y. of sand to the City of Kenai'.
It appears the City's need for sand Will not approach the
figure discussed, but nevertheless, the agreement resolves a
serious problem for the Borough and at the same time
resolves a serious problem for the City of Kenai. It is
this kind of cooperation and inter -governmental relationship
that permits smooth and manageable operations of local
governments within the Kenai Peninsula. The City and the
City Council is appreciative of the cooperation.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Brighton
Re: Kenai Landfill
I am proceeding with a Resolution and Memorandum before' the
Assembly for the operation of the Kenai Landfill to
November 30, 1988.
Before I do, I wish to clarify the dates of the extension. If
you have any concerns please so advise. This is the order as I
see it from the documentation:
1. Solid Waste Permit expired December 1, 1986.
2. Council passed Resolution 86-71 extending the permit
date by 18 months.
3. Solid Waste permit extended to May 31, 1988.
4. The Council agreed at its September 16, 1987 meeting
to a six month time extension. This places the
closure date at November 30, 1988.
As a matter of information to you, Resolution 86-71 allowed for
the expansion of the site by 300' X 1000 feet. The Borough has
excavated only one cell and expanded the site by 1501 X 10001.

Re: Kenai Peninsula Foto Ad's. Assignment of Kenai Airport
Special Use Permit to new owner.
Tb wfiom it may. concern:
This letter is to give you a preview of what my presentation'will be
at the next meeting of the Kenai City Council on May 4th, 1988.
My now is Marc Zimmerman and I presently have a Special Use Permit
to operate and maintain a photographic ad display kiosk at the Kenai
Municipal Airport. The permit was granted on January 1, 1987 and
terminates on December 31, 19890 with a one year renewal option.
In April of last year, while negotiating a sale of the business, I
can before the City Council seeking approval of an assignment of the
Special Use Permit to the new owner. Approval was given, however the
sale was not completed and the assignment was never made. In March
of this year the business was sold to another party. On April 4th I
contacted the City Attorney's office and spoke with Ron Sutcliffe,
Mr. Rogers legal assistant, concerning assignment of the permit to the
new owner. He did some checking and responded with a letter in which
he stated:
"You are correct that the City Council approved an assignment of
the Special Use Permit on April 15, 1987. They approved an
assignment to Kurt Karsten, to whom you were attempting to sell
the business. In our April 4, 1988 conversation you informed me
that the person to whom you have now sold the business is not
Kurt Karsten , but a different party.
Because the City Council approved an assignment to Kurt Karsten
and not the present party, you would need to -come back before
the City Council to gain approval of an assignment."
At the May 4th City Council meeting I would again seek the approval of
the Council for assignment of the above mentioned Special Use Permit
to the new owners of Kenai Peninsula Foto Ad's, Mark and Suzette Allen.
Mark and Suzette have lived in the area for several years and own a
-� professional photography studio called "Allen -Images". They are a young,
hardworking couple and I feel they will operate and maintain Kenai
Peninsula Foto Ad's in a very professional and responsible manner.

FROM: KEITH KORNELIS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR (jC110
DATE: APRIL 15, 1988
SUBJECT: CATERPILLAR 120G MOTOR GRADER
I received a telephone call yesterday from Dick Rusk of NC
Machinery Company, who is the dealer for Caterpillar Equipment
for Alaska. Mr. Rusk explained to me that they were the low
bidder on a recent State of Alaska, DOT/PF, bid for five new
Caterpillar 120G Motor Graders. He explained to me that the
nnrmnl list selling price, F.O.B. Seattle, was $136,377. Because
they are selling to the State of Alaska, the factory has allowed
them to sell at a special government discount savings of $63,621.
This brings the selling price for this new grader down to
$72,756, F.O.B. Seattle, WA.
As you know, when the State of Alaska bids on equipment, they
have a stipulation in their bid that allows municipalities in the
State of Alaska to purchase the same equipment- at the same bid
price. The City of Kenai Code also allows the City to purchase
equipment at the State bid price. Mr. Rusk explained that a few
years back, the State of Alaska purchased thirty motor graders
and fifteen municipalities took advantage of the low State bid by
purchasing them at the same low price.
During our recent budget preparation, the Street Foreman and I
discussed the possibility of eliminating the contract snow
removal on the east end of town by leasing an additional grader
and using someone from our Water and Sewer, Sewer Treatment
Plant, or Shop crews to help in snow removal during the very
heavy snow removal periods that occur sporadically through the
winter. The purchase of this grader at this fantastic price
would make it possible to attempt this money saving idea without
leasing any equipment. There are also many times throughout the
year that we could use another grader.
-1-
t
Because of the low factory price, all the graders have to be the
same which would be the attached specifications. However, Public
Works would request the following additional items:
1. A 2' extension for the 12' moldboard that the bid specs
call for, which amounts to approximately $500.
2. A snow wing with the hydraulic valves that are
necessary to operate it for approximately $12,000-
$15,000.
3. Freight from Seattle to Kenai which is approximately
$5,000.
Please find attached a copy of the information that was taxed
(via Walters and Olsons' FAX machine) to us yesterday outlining
NC Machinery's specifications and proposal.

Dear Mayor Williams
This letter is to inform you about my new Jobs Bill
Affirmative Action Program. I have recently adopted this
program, and it requires your support and participation.
This administration introduced the jobs bill in the current
legislative session to spur economic recovery in Alaska.
In recognition of the fact that minorities, women and hand-
icapped individuals have experienced various barriers to
employment and contracting, I have initiated an affirmative
action program to ensure fair and equitable opportunities
for all Alaskans.
The program will be based in the Office of Equal Employment
Opportunity. Overall goals for contracting and employment
on capital construction projects are as follows:
CONTRACTING GOALS
Minority 10.0% Women 2.0%
EMPLOYMENT GOALS
Alaskan Natives Other Minorities Women
Skilled Craft 13.8% 5.5% 8.4%
Laborers 21.6% 6.7% 14.4%
To make this program a success, I believe state and local
governments and ail -Alaskans must --join hands and work
together. To initiate this effort I have asked the
administrator of the Jobs Sill Affirmative Action Program,
Thelma Buchholdt, to contact you in the near future to
further explain the enclosed objectives for the program.

MEMORANDUM -
TO: Mayor Williams and Council
FROM: Planning & Zoning Commission
Janet Loper, Planning Specialist
DATE: May 3, 1980
RE: Request for Work Session
At the regular meeting of the Planning & Zoning Commission on April 27,
1988, the vacation request for Dena'Ina Point Estates was discussed.
The vacation request is phase II of an overall redesign of the existing
Tracts D-1 through D-7 to develop the property as commercial. (Copy
attached.)
It was the decision of the Commission to take another look at the
entire development including the rezoning and are requesting the
Council -meet in a joint work session sometime soon at the Council
convenience. The date suggested by the Commission is Thursday, May
Sth, however, will stand with the decision of the Council.
The notice of vacation request states, "The council has 30 days from
April 18, Igoe in which to veto the decision of the (Borough) Planning
Commission. If no veto is received by the Commission with the 30-day
period, the decision of the Commission will stand." Upon contact with
the Planning Department of the Borough, they will accept a decision on
or before May 18th which need not be the veto described. If no action
is taken, the decision to vacate will stand.
The entire development was to take place in three phases. Phase I was
to rezone -on a concept -basis.- Phase I1 was to vacate -existing --
right-of-ways and easements, Phase III was to submit a final plat.
-Copies of the partial verbatim minutes of, 1)_the_Planning Commission
meeting of April 27, 1987 and; 2) the Planning Commission meeting of
April 27, 1988 are attached. The entire package including maps will be

of this state to rebuild another hotel, pawn shop, liquor store or club
on this same premises. This would be you know, almost (inaudible) after
35 year of contributing to the economy of this area, you know, property
taxes, sales taxes, and so forth. r ll she wants to do is get this zoned
commercial. This will also enhance the sale that she is, so to speak
forced to sell her business. Its only for that one lot, the other lots
will remain light industrial. Lot 3 has a repair garage which falls
into either zone. The other lots are vacant and the trailers which are
illegal there are advertised for sale. There is no attempt to make a
trailer park out of the other lots."
Chairman Lewis called for comments from the public, there were none.
Chairman Lewis brought discussion back to the Commission.
MOTION;
Commissioner Smalley moved for approval of PZ87-4, Lot 1, RM Thompson
S/D Henderson Replat, seconded by Commissioner O'Reilly.
Chairman Lewis stated that,looking at the Comp Plan the area is being
- designated as Medium Density Residential. The Commission concurred.
Commissioner Bryson asked to have the existing zoning clarified through
the Comp Plan now in use, answer still the 1980 as the new one has not
been approved. It was noted that the lot in question is just under the
one acre limitation, while if the petitioner would consider zoning the
lot which includes the shop, the inclusion would bring the acreage well
over the one acre. The petitioner stated that ideally, she would like
to rezone the entire area which would include the club, the garage, and
the lots with the trailers. The Commission concurred.
MOTION AMENDMENT:
Commissioner Smalley moved to amend the motion to include the entire
property outlined, with approval of second.
VOTE:
Motion passed unanimously.
c. Resolution PZ87-3: Rezone Tracts D-1 through D-7, Dena'Ina
Point Estates, from RS to CG - Roberts and McLane
Sam McLane, representative for Royce Roberts came forward to present the'
proposal. Mr. McLane stated that since this is a continuation, he would
briefly recap the plan. "I have added some acreages on these tracts
shown on this land use concept map. Once again, we are making
residential to the northwest, the First_ Baptist -Church --is located here,
all the property across the highway is City of Kenai and presently all
this property is undeveloped, there is one old dozer trail with a small
clearing in here, but all the areas shown where the screening easements
are shown here have natural vegetation, the intent of the screening
easements is to leave the natural vegetation intact. "

"These tracts range from 1.3 acres to 7.1 acres, so the intent is to go
through the rezoning process, and get a conceptual or conditional
approval, then vacate the existing ROWS, replat with this modified ROW
alignment and return to the tract status as the property exists now,
only with the general commercial zoning. And as we discussed at the
last meeting, that is going to take some vacation hearings and so forth
for the existing ROW's, easements and so forth. I took the liberty of
drawing this in on the zoning map so you could see how it fit in with
the existing residential zones and this west Kenai neighborhood, some
limited commercial along the highway heRe and this commercial area we
just discussed adjacent to that last rezoning request."
"In reviewing the existing Comp Plan some of my remarks, the existing
Comp Plan is a little out of date, I know you have a new one that's
under consideration. I looked at some of the items in each Comp Plan
and the newer one - relating to the growth factors, there's expectations
of the City growing from a 1984 population of approximately 6200 to 9350
in the year 2000 with the Kenai/Soldotna central region going from
approximately just under 25,000 to 36,500. This would have an increase
in housing units in the Kenai area from 2446 to 3591, an increase of 11
or 1200 housing units. On the commercial apace in Kenai, using the new
Plan figures, a little over a million squaro foot of commercial space,
and that's all categories, in 1985 to an expected amount of over 1.6
million square feet in the year 2000. Now these figures out of the new
Plan did not assume the start up of Diamond Shamrock or Beluga Coal
coming or any new petrochemical or that type of industrial growth in the
central peninsula area. The Plan addresses economic development
strategies, these are suggesting promoting a positive climate for new
business development, preparation of an economic development strategy,
maintenance of the city's policy of putting city -owned land into
productive use by the private sector when there is a demonstrated public
benefit and an enhancement of the contribution of recreational visitor
industry to the city's economy and encouragement of tourism. Those are
the majors items addressed in those documents."
"Regarding the land use, the Comp Plans encourage infilling of the
central area. Strip development is along the highways and major
arterials is discouraged. In 1980, the Plan said there was about 340
acres of commercially zoned property of which around 120 acres were
developed at that time. What I've done here is shown, as we all know
this, this in -filling is going on in a rather orderly fashion, in this
area east of the older downtown area, I've highlighted these areas that
have filled in. In other words, assuming these properties that were
available in the 1980's (inaudible) you've got this development along
the Spur and out here to the pizza place, HEA using this tract, King
Oscar using this large tract here, under option for large (inaudible)
type development. I'm using this to illustrate the fact that these
larger tracts have basically, well they were originally the -airport
leased lands, -they've gone into private hands, we've had orderly
development here, starting, we've had, its been back and forth a little
bit regarding landscaping and so forth, but we started out with
WN
-PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
MAY 13, 198
Page 24
development here, the Uptown Motel and essentially this has filled up to
the end of General Commercial Zone in this portion of town. There are
scattered tracts through the central area that haven't filled up and as
Commissioner Michou mentioned, at the last public hearing and in
Commission discussion he would got a land inventory and I don't know if
you've all seen it, I've got a copy of it here".
"There isn't that much commercial property oti the market right now,
these were highlighted by Leighton, just to show, and these are not all
the properties available but this is off'the multiple listing service
and in the commercial designation and a lot of these are not in the
central area, these highlighted here, -there -are some tracts in the
Wildwood area, they are a quarter of an acre and on 61/4 acre parcel in
the Radar 8/R area, then these listings here are all in the Thompson
Park area and they are the small 1/3 acre size lots. I know there is
commercially zoned property out there, but you know that you've had a
lot of resident comment from that area whenever commercial development
has gone on.. Mr. Michou looked around and there are various tracts
available that aren't colored in here that you can see, there's this
corner here next to Beaver Loop and so forth".
"The point of this is to show that, and also the zoning map, I took the
liberty of adding this line here because the zoning map indicated these
larger tracts downtown and they are more than downtown they are over the
bank. That really reduces the size on those when compared to a parcel
here. The request we're making and you can see the acreages we're
talking about. The Comp Plans have always encouraged, the earlier Comp
Plan said confine your commercial area between these wooded revines and
that was a good plan at that time, it still is good for in -filling,
that's very desirable, but as you can see this is a small scale map, we
don't have any parcels left in this area of any size, particularly
there's no bluff parcels available of any size to allow commercial
development or a planned commercial development where you would have
numerous segments, an orderly development that would fit in together,
allow room for adequate parking, snow storage and drainage, and your
landscaping easement".
"The, just some statistics on this, it was called the west Kenai
neighborhood, when fully developed the 1980 Comp Plan estimated it 26
and a half thousand people could live in this west Kenai area and that's
this side of the ravine. And that would be housing approximately 8,000
housing units. Now thats full development of all residential land. By
1990 that particular plan projected 4270 people in this area. Now we all
know we have a slump, a slump, these Comp Plans are supposed to get us
through, now the new one's addressing it to 2000 calendar year,
somewhere in that area where we look ahead. I've looked at Comp Plans
for the area around here, I'm not, I haven't developed any of them but
I've always had a, I'll just admit this right up front, a little bone -to
pick with the Comp Plan that the consultants come down and give to the
local area, I don't know it seems to me they're based on a small town
that doesn't go through the growth cycles like we've experienced here in
the Central Peninsula. For instance, this plan that says keep all your
L
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
MAY 13, 198
Page 25
commercial development here, well that's good to in -fill there, and I,
as you can see, this is about 4 years worth right here if I can remember
correctly, this development shown in pink, well when you have a growth
spurt it doesn't take too long to fill up this area, particularly when
;;you're talking little lots".
"So these incongruities become apparent. The Plans, desires to
encourage economic development, enhance the contra.bution of the tourism,
visitor industry, thats a real buzz word these days because that's the
thing thats projected to hold now that the Borough tourism report is
anticipating a decline this year, but not a drastic decline, but a
temporary one that's based on a slower economy in Anchorage and a lot of
our visitors are out of Anchorage. Those planners that did that project
for the Borough Resource Development also pointed out that the Peninsula
is really lacking as a visitor destination point, we do get some people
down here but we're not really living up to our potential".
"Another thing they say, lets in -fill these areas, well as I pointed
out, that's going on. When you look at the basic property inventory
we're filling up the commercial. Now we do have, I don't have the whole
area here but of course we go out to Thompson Park and the area by
Morgan Steel and the old Beaver Creek S/D that the state did years ago,
there's commercially zoned property there, but you can't really
associate that with the central area. And that's why this, this doesn't
fit the Comp Plan, I went through it, you can't make it fit and you can
quote some things out of the new Comp Plan that Janet put together
regarding land use and the things we want to do regarding commercial
development and that's cited on page 28 of the draft, "establishing
commercial districts due to the highway neighborhood and central
district settings, concentrate commercial development on strategic
locations along the Spur Highway where you can control the traffic
movement, require that the access to commercial sites be restricted to
arterials or collector streets, and not have commercial sites accessed
through residential areas, and enact some neighborhood commercial zone
and designate selected neighborhoods within the general commercial land
use category."
"These are suggestions in the new Comp Plan. Well I would submit that
this sort of plan, to do here, we can accomplish this sort of thing
although the Comp Plan says specifically to encourage growth in the
central area, but general if we're going to say that, you know, looking
to the year 200o or perhaps a little further into the future, it would
be nice to have some bluff property that takes advantage of the city
Bitting here at the mouth of the river and Cook Inlet. All the property
when you're talking about trying to develop tourism and visitor
potential, and you don't have a hotel or a restaurant site anywhere
where you can virtually even see the inlet or the mountains across and
so forth, we're certainly not utilizing the city's potential to the
fullest. The city was probably established here because of the inlet
-and the mouth -of the river and has grown significantly because -of that".
"The Air Force added a bunch, we'-ve-got-this property-available_-ou-t-her-e-
and where some new hotel sites have gone in here and hotels that needed
C -
III

�}
to be downtown which are convenient transportation wise and road wise
_
and airport wise, but they certainly don't have the visitor appeal or
'
the esthetics that would be available to a bluff location in this area".
"Another thing here, we have the opportunity now, if, you can see all
the is in here, this is either rural residential or suburban
residential, but this whole area, as I stated earlier, can hold
- £
something on the order of 25,000 people, that's a long way off, we have
a lot of room for residential, we certainly don't want to put
(inaudible) back in here. The fact of the matter is the traffic
particularly from the development out north as people come in to town
from Nikiski area or Salamatof area, this is the part of the town that
they are going to encounter first. And I think we could use some more
commercially zoned property, not for development tomorrow or next year
perhaps but to have some tracts of this size available, this particular
tract here or block has about 1100, of bluff front. There's a lot of
things that can go on there, we're not deciding any specific thing, I've
heard there are some rumors going around but this rezone is not intended
for a specific use at this time, what it is is to get some commercially
-
available property, commercially developable property available within
the city limits so when we come out of this slump which, hopefully won't
last too much longer there will be some areas. That people can look
at„.
,.
"The Plan says that there's a lot of businesses and so forth that have
been established outside the city. Certainly some of those are more
suited to be outside the city, but probably some of them, it might be
desirable to have within the city for the taxes. We have an opportunity
now to take a look at this are, this largely undeveloped, this is a photo
taken last year so it's pretty current. As you can see Inlet Woods
.
streets are in and so forth. So you can see this is undeveloped and the
city owns this, I don't know if its just a planning commission yet I
would assume there are some proposed ball park going in in this area and
of course the close out of the landfill there will be some sort of
contoured and drains site that's seeded there will be no developed
there, but across the street from this there's going to be a lot of
green areas so while this could be categorized as strip zoning or spot
'
zoning. I think there are some reasons for it, we have this, all this
residential development starting here at Woodland a►d coming clear
through, along Forest Drive and out to the bluff and Redoubt Terrace
that is not going to be supplanted any time in the near future. Its not
to
going be forced out".
"
"But we have a natural break here with the city property and this dog
leg and the bluff where it comes in right behind the First Baptist
_
Church which has.a_sizable parcel here -There -ia room to continue a .
s,
road through here but certainly for the area here, this is one inch
equal 600 feet so for a sizable area in here there room for bluff_
- - -' - -
_isn't
lots and have an adequate bluff setback. So we do have a natural
.
necking down, more or less a tapering down of the residential zone and
then its beginning further on down the road so what we're requesting is
that residential begin a little further down. And if we, if this rezone
goes
R`
is
y
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
MAY 13, 198
Page 27
through now before this is developed, and residences are built in here
we won't have the situation that occurred earlier here tonight, we can, I
believe we can adequately address the buffer zones, the traffic flow,
and those sort of items now and look ahead. Like I said we're not
expecting development on this next year or the year after, but looking
ahead to the future. So while it isn't, right in with the Comp Plan I
believe these Comp Plans are perhaps a little lacking in this commercial
area. Although when we're talking about development of commercial
districts this type of development does, in my opinion fit with the
goals laid out in the Comp Plan. Regarding the buffer areas, the
street, access, and so forth. So, that's all I have on that. I wish I
could pull out the land use map where it says lets have some commercial
zoned property with some bluff front and beautiful view available but
there isn't any in the Comp Plan. I nertainly think the city could use
some."
Chairman Lewis opened the issue to the public for comment.
John Cooke: "In listening to Mr. McLane, I'm wondering and in sitting in
on some of the comprehensive planning reviews that took place years ago
I think the comprehensive planning review basically tried to keep the
development of the city into a core area to avoid, remember discussion
was to avoid the spreading out of our commercial endeavors to make it
look more like a cohesive city. And this is, I don't know if anybody
has ever taken an opportunity to walk or to drive through this area, I
guess you'd have to walk through most of it, but it does afford a
beautiful view, esp. if you had a large home (inaudible, papers
rustling) structures of the inlet. It seems like it would be more
compatible to keep it residential over spreading out the commercial
center of the city. And I think the city has done a tremendous job with
its Comprehensive Plan to this point, I would hate to see you start
spreading the city farther away from the core."
Chairman Lewis closed the public hearing and brought the issue back to
the Commission.
MOTION:
Commissioner Bryson moved approval of Resolution PZ87-3, seconded by
Commissioner Osborne.
Commissioner Smalley, "I question that Councilman Wise brought up last
time this came up, has the petitioner, what are the petitioners thoughts
on having to completely pay for the parcel or is it completely paid for,
if its resubdivided under current ordinances, I think it has to be paid
for prior to ... correct?"
Sam McLane: "I really didn't go over that totally, there's, as I said
what we're requesting here is a conditional rezoning approval at this
time, because we don't have an accurate legal description. The intent
--is-to-r-equest the, once the conceptual approval or the -conditional -
approval is granted is to request the necessary waivers to do the
replatting and end up -with the large blocks available that would

section 36 dispersal would be there. In other words, the access and the
corridor for water lines to get to this street and to this street would
'
be there. But essentially what we're asking for at this time is to have
these blocks just the way they are, shown here. No further platting of;,z.

future".

Commissioner Church, "When you get to the final platting, say we do this
-
and you get to the final platting doesn't it come back to us for
k
approval?" Mr. McLane, "yes, the platting for this and then when
'
further subdivision is done with, when we get into the commercial you'll
have your site plan review and your landscaping and all those reviews
will be done, but if say, if there is a planned commercial development
for this tract here, where someone doesn't want to development and I'm
speculating into the future, to explain the process, doesn't want the
-- -- -- --;
full 7.1 acres, but wants this portion here, then that plat would come
through the city."
I
Planning Specialist Loper, "If I may help the Commission a little bit,
we had a similar situation, and I think it was yours also, for Parsons
S/D? On that the Commission gave approval of the rezoning and it was to
be contingent upon the filing of a final plat which would be coming
before this Commission." Commissioner Smalley, "but right now the power
lies with the city as far as the sale of that property of the conditions
of the sale is that before it be resubdivided it would be paid for in
-
full. I think that's an agreement on the purchase contract.
CHANGE TO SIDE 2 OF TAPE.

Councilman Wise, "...Really the administration and Council and the
buyer, but is a material thing. The only comment I would make here is
that I, as I understand what is being requested is conceptually do you
agree with this. I would point out, a little bit in contrary to Mrs.
Loper is that the, not in my mind, be necessarily be binding in the
future. Is that, I think, you get a little play on words and though I
don't claim to be an attorney, I think that you approve of developing, '
I
I
what they're asking, as I understand it, to approve further development `
M
of the concept. Which does mean that you cannot in the future turn down
the concept. Its a little fine things that your not committing, as I
would envisage it, you're not committing yourself to approving this as 1
presented in final form, even the rezoning or anything. All you're
doing is, maybe I've got Mr. McLane wrong but this is not an action
-
which precludes you from reversing yourself in a future date. When you
get the final plat and the deliberate delineation of the plats be

essentially return the site to the way it exists now only with a
different zoning category so its the intent of the owner to ask for
those waivers. In other words, right now for instance, on a
rededication of the ROWS in a slightly shifted position there isn't that
mom
much difference really other than this new one here keeps access into
the residential from having to go through all the commercial so the city
would have to be signatory to the plat as the city was the one that
_
dedicated all these ROW's to the public. So additional waivers to the
j
various platting authorities would be requested at that time. The idea
was rather than to request a conditional approval on the rezone, rather
than coming in here with the vacation, well it was just a lot of paper
-
work associated .....
_
Commissioner Smalley, "In other words no", Mr. McLane, "yea. But we
know all those steps have to be gone through".
Commissioner Bryson, "Question. He's asking for a conceptual approval,
which .... I'm not sure we have that vehicle, ..... that a conceptual
zoning .... could be approved. Correct?" Chairman Lewis, "As I
understand it its either a conceptual .... " Commissioner Smalley, "it
either is or it isn't". Chairman Lewis,"Yes. There's nothing I
-
conceptual about it at all. If we vote for it." Commissioner Michou,
"Either we have it or we don't, its either commercial or it ain't".
Commissioner Smalley, "In other words the vehicle we would have to
approve of this or not, not of the conceptual basis." Chairman Lewis,
"we're not approving the concept, we're approving the actual rezoning".
Mr. McLane, "I hate to interrupt again but I used the term conceptual
and conditional because at this time, this parcel is in tract, legal
configurations that are different from what's shown here. So the reason
I said, say we use the term conditional rezone, there isn't a legal
description for this tract right now, that's why, even though this part
is the remaining residential, we asked for rezoning or advertisement of
all the tracts because the . this is, this is what the tracts look
like now. You see they're slightly different but in other words this is
Tract D-9 of Dena'Ina Point Estates as recorded on plat 64-107, so ...
this is a concept we're asking for approval for, but when you grant the
rezone you have to have the legal description and we don't have a legal
description until we go through all that platting process."
Commissioner Michou, "so all we got to do is get it platted and since
we've already approved it as commercial, then we wind up with 13 quick
stops or video rental stores and we've had it". Mr. McLane, "in the
planning process, we have public hearings on the .... on the ROW
vacations and so forth, that have to go through that standard procedure
and so forth but yes, once, if you approve a conditional rezone on this
map, it is a rezone". Commissioner Michou, "I can't see the lines but
I'm saying if I can count 13-lots along the highway we could conceivable
wind up with 13 small businesses". Mr. McLane, "the intent at this
time, these were shown, these Interior lines were shown at the time just
to show, just to give you an idea of some size that could be available,
( -the-intent now is to plat the ROW's so the original intent of this - -

basis I would say and I think it has to be arrived at between the
applicant and the Commission is an understanding, are you committing
yourself to another step of approving a replat, vacations and so forth.
If that's the request then I think you should be very careful about ...
they are simply saying that as of this moment you have no problem with
never continuing developing, finalizing this concept, that's something
else again. Its a fine line of difference and I think its got to be
clarified, what you are doing and what you are being asked to do."
Mr. McLane, "May I clarify that, I know that this is resulting in
confusion here, but what we're requesting is a conditional approval
contingent upon the filing of a final plat, recorded in the Kenai
recording district that looks just like this that would overlay right
here, it would actually have a tract designation on this bearing and
distances and exact acreage and a recording stamp down here just like
the original. Because like I said we have to go through the ROW vacation
process, the resurvey, the resubmittal of the plat and so forth into
the commercial configuration, that's a lot of work to go through its a
lot more time on the Commission's part, we felt it would be better to
get the conditional zoning request in, if you approved of the zoning and
the land use then we would do the platting. If we went right now and
went through that platting procedure, came in and just did a replat,
assuming that the City administration and the Council would be agreeing
to shifting the location of the ROWS and so forth and then got this done
and then came in and said ok, we want to rezone these areas I've
outlined in brown to a general commercial designation and it was turned
down, we would be left with a bunch of ROWS that weren't really in the
best configuration for residential. And then we would have to go back
through, vacate those and go back to the original. Thats why the intent
was to come in and request a conditional rezone for these and the
rezoning would be contingent upon a final plat that would have this
configuration to show the new ROW locations, the screening easements
would be platted and dedicated on the final plat. I call this concept,
call it a preliminary plat, but its really not a preliminary plat
because it has not been submitted to any commission. That's why this
plat is in this configuration and when that was done it would relieve
the contingency in the zoning, would become finalized".

a. Tidelands Lease Application: Northland Services, Inc.
Miles East of the Mouth of the KenaiRiver
Administrative Assistant Geratlauer, explained that this is back
before the Commission as a formal lease application. The original
discussion was concerning whether or not to make the land
available for lease. In accordance with the code we are now
holding public hearings both at the Planning level and Harbor
Commission level. We have received no comment. Jan Molders is
here from Dowl Engineers to answer any questions. A reminder, you
are to determine whether the contemplated use falls within that
permitted under the zoning ordinance and that is your roll in this
instance.
Chairman Smalley opened the issue to the public. There were none'.
Chairman Smalley brought the issue back to the Commission for
discussion.
Commissioner Bryson: In looking at our staff report it makes
reference to the Corps Permit being a plat, I think that is
inappropriate wording. The summary tidelands plat number, Cook
Inlet number 435, that's merely a Corps application. There is no
plat that exists. Administrative Assistant Gerstlauer, no there
in no forma-1 plat 9f_the. leased area,--the-applicant filled that,
out. The code goes on to state appraisal and surveying is
required. I'm not familiar with surveying tidelands, I'm no
certain that is really necessary. It has not been accomplished.
Commissioner Bryson: when this was before us before, we approved
the leasing of tidelands in general, I think that was the thing
J

before us. There were several comments made about how this parcel
is situated in relation to the channel and after the meeting, the
next day I went and plotted that up versus some air photos of the
'
mmwk
river and it occupies a good portion of the channel that's used
�;
for navigation. And I was wondering if, if we don't have the I
review authority on that aspect of it, who is doing it.
Administrative Assistant Gerstlauer, the Harbor Commission. The
Harbor Commission is looking at it Monday. On that portion of
that. Jan might be able to answer that too, I know the Corps of
Engineers, according to Jan, approved'their permit so that they
evidently don't have a problem with it. Commissioner Bryson, what
permit is that. Administrative Assistant Gerstlauer, I'll let Jan
answer. Commissioner Bryson, this same tract? Administrative
'
Assistant Gerstlauer, the permit for their facility. Commissioner
Bryson, yea but at this point, they're wharf plan isn't proposed
to extend to the limit of their lease, its along the shoreline and
what activities are they proposing within this lease that wouldn't
have been addressed? Administrative Assistant Gerstlauer, I'll
let Jan answer.
Jan Molders: the extent of the lease parcel boundary does exceed
what we're proposing, I think the dock itself extends maybe 200'
out. The applicant I guess was a little uncertain at the time we
put that together as to how far his facility was going to extend
and its not necessary probably to have lease parcel itself be
^'
quite as extensive as its shown and we wouldn't have any problem i
with it being pulled back somewhat. our main concern is that the
facility as proposed is entirely encompassed within that area.
And the Corps has indicated to us, as has the state that with our
revised our application they are just days away from issuing a
permit for this project.
Commissioner Bryson: has the Corps established a wharf line along
there that they, were they will approve structures that are .....
Jan Molders: I'm not familiar with the term wharf line but what
they have approved is the structure that we're proposing, the
floating ramp and dock facility. And if it varies substantially
from that design their permit would not be valid.
Commissioner Bryson: I don't have a, a great, well I have less
concern I guess if the proposed tract were more in conformance f
with the adjacent leases rather than extending, you know half to 1
two thirds across the channel. Jan Molders, that was not our
intent.
Commissioner Bryson: are there any existing mooring leases in
this area? Administrative Assistant-Gerstlauer*- held by -the City?
- - ---
Commissioner Bryson, well, by individuals, like Corps permit.
Administrative Assistant Gerstlauer, I don't know. - - -

Administrative Assistant Gerstlauer, this could be modified back
then to say 3001? Jan Molders, oh yea. Commissioner Bryson, the
Harbor Commission will probably consider that anyway but......

Jan Molders, part of that came out of the irregularness of the
coast line at that point, we're just wanting to make sure based on
where we were ..... Commissioner Bryson, from the initial
boundary from where that wao put in, in the downstream boundary it
sticks out about twice as far as the adjacent lease. Another
third of the upstream (inaudible). I don't know to what extent

consistency with .... Administrative Assistant Gerstlauer, with
the zoning. Chairman Smalley, that basically its a use that falls
within that zone.

Commissioner Bryson, I move to find the proposed use consistent
with the zoning, or is found to be consistent with the zoning,
seconded by Commissioner Nault.

Question.

Commissioner Bryson, Leon are you with the Harbor Commission?

Leon Quesnel, yes.
Commissioner Bryson, I wonder if I could mention again two things
"
I just brought up. One is the proposed tract that is to be,
lease, or platted or leased. It sticks out considerably beyond
the adjacent approved uses. or they may not be City plats, I
don't know, but certainly they've been approved in some
relationship to the channel and everything else and I wonder
if .... in looking at their photos it appears as though the proposed
lease occupied a considerable portion of the channel to that area.

Leon Quesnel: it appears to yes, we'll be taking a closer look
tomorrow ... Monday. In the meantime I will talk with city
administration on it to get (inaudible). Administrative Assistant
Gerstlauer, Phil, we do have copies of those tidelands surveys
upstairs, the ones that flank either side of this so we can look
at how far those go. You'd feel more comfortable with it if it was
more in line with .... Commissioner Bryson, well I'd like it to be
reviewed (inaudible). The shorelines might have changed 50' from

i
-
Planning Specialist Loper introduced -the issue with a short
-
background on the first phase. This Commission needs to pass a
1
recommendation on to the Council and the Council in turn will
-_.----- '. -.--
recommend to the Borough.
--. --..-
Chairman Smalley: Is this the one that came to us when there was
l
concern about the removal of the buffer. Planning Specialist
j
.
Loper, I believe so. Commissioner Bryson, what was this?
Chairman Smalley, they wanted to take the screening from the
highway off and there was concern about the screening from this
- --
end. The application I think removes it. It makes a portion of
it commercial and a portion of it residential. Commissioner
Bryson, question, the initial submittal to us as regards the
resubdivision, or -rezoning of this area indicated that it was
going to be a mixed commercial residential use, yet this indicates
that they are proposing to rezone it all commercial. Planning
.
Specialist Loper, I hadn't noticed that. Commissioner Bryson, its
(�
in our summery. Planning Specialist Loper, where did you find
that? I see. That's the old one, do you notice the date? It is
April 17, 1987. That is the backup for when they first came to
us. Is that what you are referring to?
Chairman Smalley: that piece of property to the south of the,
which is hero, right? Now this is where the church is, on this
one, and in reading through it, I understand that the screening
will be removed completely? Planning Specialist Loper, the
•
application speaks of removing screoning easements. Commissioner
Bryson, same comment, or same subject, the April 6, 1988 indicates
that phase I which is the rezoning is from RS to CG. Chairman
Smalley, the whole thing to general commercial. Commissioner
Bryson, I haven't been able to find a description of phase I yet.
Or a portion.
(large portion inaudible due to papers shuffling) Planning
Specialist Loper, of course the rezoning was based upon the
submittal of a final plat. Commissioner Bryson, we're proposing
to rezone this but which area are we rezoning. Planning
Specialist Loper, if you remember back, we've had two instances
where we've had a_ rezoning_ based on the submittal of a final plat,
one was Parson, and one was this one, with no concrete plat to
look at to say which is going to be residential and which is
------
commercial. The way we did -it was say; -just the -way it -says in -
the description from suburban residential to general commercial
based on the submittal of a final plat which we approved.
Commissioner Bryson, but we had a schedule before us which showed
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
April 27, 1988
Page 5
us what they were doing. Planning Specialist Loper, yes. That
doesn't mean that's what they are going to final. Commissioner
Bryson, well if it varies significantly from that I would reject
it. Planning Specialist Loper, right, and we won't have that
until after these vacations come through. They are giving it to
us in one package, we're getting it by phases.
Chairman Smalley: according to the map here it talks about the
easements being vacated, the screening easements being vacated, it
looks like the screening easements are only the highway.
Commissioner Church, well that's where -they want it commercial and
naturally you don't want any screening. Chairman Smalley, I know
but see my concern is on the south end next to the church there,
you know about removing screening there. Its difficult to
determine what is a, you know I can see the right-of-way
easement... (papers being shuffled - partially inaudible)
Chairman Smalley, .. and the map here doesn't show it being
taken out. So is this easement going to be taken out or not.
Planning Specialist Loper, I would suggest if that's what you
want, that you specifically state that on the western end of it
you want it retained so you get what you want. Commissioner
Nault, it doesn't show a screening easement on the north being
taken out either. Chairman Smalley, yea I know .... and depending
upon who has this piece that's going to be decided in. I do have
a concern about this piece. You know they don't show it going.
But then I think, I agree, I think something needs to be said
about that.
Commissioner Nault: (inaudible) tracts in residential? Chairman
Smalley, c-4? That shows it being commercial I think.
Commissioner Church, which one is residential then? Commissioner
Nault, c-3? Chairman Smalley, thats a d. Commissioner Church,
what I want to know is where is the residential part of this. I
understand they want all of this commercial, of course its on the
highway. Planning Specialist Loper, this is the way it used to
look (loud noises - partially inaudible). Chairman Smalley, this
is from the original file that shows ... Commissioner Church, so
they want all of this to be commercial? And this then to be
residential? (loud noises and several persona speaking at once -
mostly inaudible) Commissioner Church, ...all of this. Chairman
Smalley, it looks like they're rezoning the whole thing.
Commissioner Church, to the commercial and this .... Chairman
Smalley, I mean if they're vacating these easements ....
Commissioner Church, ...all the way to the bluff. Chairman
Smalley, I mean this is easement this isn't screening. This is
easement I'm assuming. It would be nice if somebody were here to
explain their .... so this is the original one submitted. That's
. D._ _ Commissioner Nault, so its a tract all by__itseIf. ___ Chairman_
Smalley, now this is the original one filed, here it shows tract 5
over here is tract 7 and its speaks D1 through 7. And then the
application requests .... from Re to .... I'd feel more -
comfortable personally having somebody here to speak towards it.
Or can you understand it Phil.

PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION

Commissioner Bryson, although this isn't a rezoning document it
certainly contents ... what's proposed is the rezoning, I think it
ought to be clarified before we ..... make a reference to page one
being rezoning from RS to CG I would assuma that's in part and
phase two is the vacation of the rights -of -way, right-of-ways and
easements and that's what they're doing now. Chairman Smalley,
see, it says also vacate screening easements adjacent to Kenai
Spur Highway within Tracts D1 and D7. And D7 ... are just these
... Commissioner Church, he's referring back to this original
here. D1 and D7 but does it include this one here on the side?
Chairman Smalley, no, nor does it include anything on the ....
Commissioner Church, its just on the Spur. Chairman Smalley,
that's what I thought, this map shows just this piece here, that's
being, the screening removed.
Commissioner Bryson, as far as the vacation tool I see no problem
with what they're proposing, however, I think we, anything we do
should be contingent upon conformance with, general conformance
with their original layout as far as rezoning is concerned. Or
request to have it modified. Commissioner Church, the original
intent of this tract though was residential, is that correct?
Answer from several voices, yes. Commissioner Church, and what
impact would that be if this is changed to commercial all the way
to the bluff? As far as we're concerned. That's a question I
have. Chairman Smalley, I think it has the potential impact on
anybody that would want to build a house in there. It would make
the property probably a little bit less in value. Commissioner
Church, that's true. If they wanted to build over here and they
have, whatever, a boat coming up next to them for instance ....
Chairman Smalley: what are the wishes of the Commission.
NOTION:
Commissioner Bryson, I move to recommend approval of the proposed
vacation of easements and rights -of -way within Tracts Di through
D7, Dena'Ina Point Estates, as submitted, seconded by Commissioner
Church.
Chairman Smalley: there has been a motion to approved the vacation
of rights -of -way within Tracts D1 through D7, Dena'Ina Point
Estates, discussion.
Commissioner Bryson: just a, I'd like to underline a point here
that, this has been, was initially approved on the concept of a
rezoning a portion of this parcel and that, they should either
request a modification if their proposals are different of don't
conform to that. That's not a motion, just a ... they should be
made aware of.
Chairman Smalley: as was stated, I have a concern as far as what,
you _know, if there isn't clarification and it goes commercial
clear to the bluff, even the portion if its fronting the highway,
I wonder what kind of impact that's going to have on the property
out there as far as its value. Residential. Because I think at
i
PLANNING & ZONING CCMNISSION
April 27, 1988
Page 7
one time we, our intent was to keep the commercial within, within
the inner city. And now we're looking at a piece, or an
ordinance, or request to extend it.
Councilman Measles: initially, as I recall, it was also the
-
intent commercial property would be, if needed, would be across
the highway. Chairman Smalley, across the highway! Councilman
t
Measles, the section 36 areas the other side of the highway. The
question maybe Phil can answer, if this is approved, will all of
the water, sewer, engineering have to be redone for the rest of
the area out there. Commissioner Bryson, they were proposing to
do that as part of their rework of that subdivision, yes.
Councilman Measles, it was just for these parcels ... Commissioner
Bryson, yes. They may be trying to conform more to the crossings
"
that axist out there, but all their interior design work is lost.
That just .... Councilman Measles, that's just in these areas,
what about the other sections .... Commissioner Bryson, that'l ..
i
as far as the trunk line that will utilize that to the same degree
I think. Commissioner Bryson, I assume they're trying to get
these roads closer to what exist out there, I don't know.
Chairman Smalley, I can appreciate someone trying to do something
with the property out there, but again, if there's a potential for
it to have a severe impact on the other remaining properties I
think its something the city really needs to take a look at.
Before they say go. Commissioner Church, and that would come in
through phase three here right? Chairman Smalley, yes.
Commissioner Nault, when did phase one go on was that a year ago?
Commissioner Church, yes, about then. Chairman Smalley, to a
degree that's probably what would be done tonight if memory serves
-.
me right. That's what we're being asked to do, actually one and
0
two. Commissioner Church, we're being asked to rezone it?
Chairman Smalley, it has been rezoned. Planning Specialist Loper,
a copy of the ordinance is in your packet. Commissioner Nault,
this has been rezoned completely? Planning Specialist Loper, yes,
based upon the filing of a final plat that you approve.
Commissioner Church, yes we did that last year. Commissioner
Bryson, ok, its basically in conformance with that large layout
you passed out. Planning Specialist Loper, yes, this is what you
based your approval on. Commissioner Nault, in their initial
request a year ago, did that show rezoning a part of it and
leaving a part of it residential? Commissioner Church, yes.
-
Chairman Smalley, rezoning tracts D1 through D7, the whole thing.
That's what this says. Planning Specialist Loper, it was done
f
that way because there is no other legal description. It had to
be based on what exists not on what is proposed because there is
no final plat. Commissioner Bryson, based on the concept. Its a
strange way ... at what point do they identify which zone is
Which. Planning Specialist Loper; that's what this Commission
--
decided on a year ago, to go ahead and do the rezoning based on
�-
exhibit B a concept map. --Commissioner Church, right, -that's
-- --- ------ -
what's on page one of this ordinance. Chairman Smalley, I don't
remember us doing that but obviously we did. Commissioner Church,
I remember doing it. Commissioner Bryson, so it was contingent
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION

Page 8
upon the submittal of the plat and the platting has never been
done. So the rezoning hasn't taken place. Planning Specialist
Loper, right, and they told us that the platting would not be done
until phase three after all the vacations and everything else has f
t,
been done.
{'
Commissioner Church, what if this all goes through and all this
has been approved and then Council feels its not the best benefit
for everybody, then can we turn it all down and they would have to
�.
start all over again. I mean all three things have to be approved {
in order, right? Planning Specialist Loper, everything is going I
-
to hinge on that final plat, making sure that it matches
everything they've submitted all along. Commissioner Church, I
- - don't remember then wanting it commercial all the way to the
t
bluff, I really don't. I remember this part here still being
residential. Planning Specialist Loper, ghat you are looking at
is the original and only copy of what they submitted at the first
meeting. Commissioner Church, I guess I didn't study it well
enough. Chairman Smalley, according to this letter the vacation

Loper, those are Borough minutes, yes. Chairman Smalley, oh, ok. i
Well at this point in time what can be done to, or can anything be
done I guess, to ensure that the whole piece is going to go
commercial. Commissioner Church, it says Tract 1 through and
whatever. Chairman Smalley, the wording says D1 through D7 on the
ordinance. Planning Specialist Loper, it was done that way !
originally because there was no way to define..... Chairman ,

!') Councilman Measles, the Borough has already acted so its effective
in 30 days so perhaps you should ask for an extension of time for
it to be effective at the Borough. You need to ask for an
lit additional 30 days or whatever. Commissioner Bryson, they are
incapable of extending it. Planning Specialist Loper, why would
they be incapable of extending it? Commissioner Bryson, that may
be a statutory thing. Councilman Measles, well if it is you just
need to veto it. And then they can start over. Commissioner i
Nault, Council has 30 days to act on it within 30 days from April
18th. Commissioner Bryson, they'd have, your right, they'd have
to request, or they'd have to veto it is what they'd have to do.
Chairman Smalley, yea, it would be Council, should be Council's
action. Commissioner Bryson, both we and the Council will meet
--- - = before that period. Councilman Measles, yes Council meets on the 1
18th but your recommendation (inaudible) but that's the same night
and the deadline.
'I MOTION WITHDRAWAL:
Commissioner Bryson withdrew his motion

- MOTION:
Commissioner Bryson, I move to request a two week extension to the
May 18th deadline
Chairman Smalley, now this is in addition to your original? You
could just put an and in it and add it to the original motion, and
-- - - to request a two week extension on the May 18th date.
Commissioner Bryson, all right.
Chairman Smalley, is there a second. Commissioner Church, would
you read it again please. Commissioner Nault, we lost it.
Planning Specialist Loper, it now reads; "move to recommend to the
E City Council and the Borough to withhold action on this item and
to request a two week extension on the May 18th deadline." y
Councilman Measles, the next Borough Assembly meeting will be on
the first of June. Do you want to specify a date. Commissioner
Bryson, is it the Borough Assembly that has to reject it within 30
days. Unknown.
Chairman Smalley, is there a second, Commissioner Nault, I'll
second it. Chairman Smalley, discussion. This does not pertain
to the motion, but I'm looking at the names of the streets that
were so carefully chosen. When they redo the street alignment,
when and if they do are they still going to be maintaining these
names? Planning Specialist Loper, I guess we'll know that when
the plat comes through. Commissioner Bryson, the City can
y establish the names of the tracts. Planning Specialist Loper,
., anything in plat form needs to come back through you. Chairman
Smalley,.further-discussion. of a

question, is this completely jumbled up, what do you think's
needed_Ray.__ Councilman Measles_, we just need to get some „
objection in before the 18th in some fashion, either a request for-

that if you do something the night of the 18th you can't submit it
in to the Borough the day of the 18th. Councilman Measles, I
would assume that since the Borough set that 18th that it was
because the Borough's having their meeting that night so we
(inaudible) Borough Assembly then could retract their actions or
Commissioner Nault, it just says no vetos received within the
30 day period. Chairman Smalley, question on the motion.
VOTE:
Motion passed unanimously
Chairman Smalley, I have a, I don't know I guess its more of a
statement, I think it is probably appropriate at this time, when,
I think when a Commission or when people see that a mistake
perhaps has been done, I'm not to sure if its going to reflect
badly on our record to go back and say whoa, wait a minute, we
made a mistake and to correct that mistake rather than to allow it
to continue on and cause, potentially cause some severe
ramifications economically in that area. Now I really think we
made a mistake in approving of a rezone, I really do.
Commissioner Church, well it was contingent upon the filing of a
final plat. Councilman Measles, I think the basic mistake was in
approving the rezoning of the plan period because of what the plat
looked like to rezone that area to commercial, in my opinion is a
mistake.
Chairman Smalley, and when is it appropriate that we set back and
say whoa, wait a minute. You know if we have a body, as a body
do, I mean, so we look like fools, my God, I mean you know if we
made the terrible mistake. Planning Specialist Loper, perhaps
rather then retract a rezoning the time to start looking at it is
when you get a full package. And thus far you've had a part of a
package. What you could do is turn down the vacation and say you
want to see the entire package at one time, would that be a better
option Ray? Chairman Smalley, we did that somewhere else and look
what we ended up with. Commissioner Church, I believe that's what
confused us, its because of the phases. Chairman Smalley, bits
and pieces. Commissioner Church, you know we're sitting back here
and we want to see the whole picture, we just saw the first
picture. Councilman Measles, one problem with that approach would
be, if the intent is at some point to retract everything that's
been done to this point, if you approach it in that manner then
you're telling them go ahead, spend the money, do a final plat, do
all this work, bring it back to us, and if the intent now is to
undo all of that then there's no need in them going any further
with their expenditures. Planning Specialist Loper, yes, that is
looking at it in a negative manner. Councilman Measles, right,
gather everything, if the rezoning was approved pending approval
of a final plat, ok, there's no stipulations -there -as to what that
final plat really needs to look like, so essentially, if they
bring -in -a final plat that meets the requirements of -the general
commercial zone, I think you have a hard time then rezoning it
back to residential based on that final plat. Chairman Smalley,

after they've gone through all that .... Councilman Measles,
'
that would really be hard to do and would make both the Commission
and the Council look a lot more foolish than if everybody agrees
lets it, what doing
now, hey a mistake was made, undo stop you're

Chairman Smalley, and that can happen between now and oar dead-
lines that we've set up basically. Is there any way that we can
bounce this off the feelings of Council and get some feedback from
them. 'Cause if we're going to stop it it needs to be done or if
there's going to be some change and zone back... Planning
Specialist Loper, if I may make a suggestion, the Council is about
done with the budget sessions, Ray do you think the Council would
be open to a work session with the Commission and perhaps the

8-1 Representative of Pepsi Cola - Vending Machine at
Airport
Kurt Neils, Pepsi Cola Co. - He is proposing putting
Pepsi Cola in the airport terminal. There is none
available now. There is a profit potential for the
City at no cost to the City. He distributed a list
that states the cost potential. There is a local
vendor who will do this at 10% of the proceeds and do
maintenance. Based on -these numbers, 8 oans per day--
10 cases per month, there would be a net profit of $45
per month. If the City were to run it, it would bring
income to the City and would be a courtesy to people
who use the product. Airport manager Ernst explained,
we have a lease agreement with Tyler Vending. He
furnishes pop, cigarettes, candy and change, based on
10% of the gross, except 8.10 per pack for cigarettes.

His lease is yearly and can be terminated with 30 days
notice. To bring in a vendor would put the existing'
Vendor in a position of having many machines, the
opposition would have one. The lease expires June 30.
City Manager Brighton said if Council desires
additional vendors, we should put it out to bid at that
;
time. Councilwoman Swarner asked Mr. Neils if Pepsi
Cola Co. could provide the other machines. Mr. Neils
replied, Pepsi has change machines. it would increase
revenue at the airport, some people will not buy
t .�
anything but Pepsi. George Spence, George's Vending,
stated he has pop and candy machines but not
_
cigarettes. He would have a dollar valuator to make
I
change. Councilman Ackerly noted a cigarette machine
.
may be a moot point in the future, the State is
eliminating them all over. Councilwoman Swarner asked
if there was an exclusive on the vendor. Answer • no.
Councilman Measles said he thought we had a terminal
operators manual that said one of each type in the
airport. We would have to correct the manual.
Councilwoman O'Reilly asked if there were any problems
with the system as it is now. Mr. Ernst replied, he
has not had any complaints. Mr. Neils explained, it
would not be competition, they each have their own
'product.
Vic Tyler, Coca Cola Co. He has machines at the
airport and at City Hall. The City should have bids.
He has the ability to put Pepsi in his machines. It
j
could be part of the bid document. It should be for a
j
year. His change machines provide for phone and other
needs.
Airport Manager Ernst road the Code, the machines are
put in at the airport par instructions. Councilwoman
O'Reilly suggested, since the airport leases are coming
up for review, we could put out proposals at the same
time.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Monfor moved, seconded by Councilwoman
O'Reilly, to have Administration prepare bid specs for
vendors at the airport to go at a yearly basis just
like the other leases.

MOTION:
Councilwoman Monfor moved, seconded by Councilman
McComsoy, to accept and forward these plans to Juneau
for the next phase.
Councilman Ackerly asked if it could be built in
stages. Answer - yes. City Manager Brighton noted the
last home built was in Juneau. It took 3 years to
accumulate the funds. They withheld till the entire
amount was appropriated before starting. Mayor
Williams asked if this will fall under Alaska Health i
Social Service statutes. Mr. Murray replied, the
reason they were included is, some residential care
facilities are funded by general appropriation, 2 in
the State are funded by special appropriation. The
regulations were included to provide an opportunity for
funding through Health b Social Services. There is a
new facility in Anchorage that is a combination of
I
and intern care. They have tried to got
state funds, they have not gotten them yet. Mayor
Williams noted model N2 and N4 have the same amount of
sq. ft., and have 40 units. what is the difference?
Mr. Murray explained, 02 is operated by the City, N4 is
operated by a non-profit organization. Mayor Williams
asked, why are there 40 apartments and 38 rented? Mr.
Murray replied, one is for management, one for
maintenance. Vat is so someone will be on site.

C-11 Res. 88-26 - Requesting Legislative Support of
Municipal Assistance and Revenue sharing at 1986 Level
MOTION:
Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilman
McComsey, to adopt the resolution.
There was no public comment.
Mayor Williams explained, the resolution is the result
of four Mayoral Conferences and three teleconferences.
There will be another teleconference April 8.
Anchorage has $37 Million short fall, Mayor Pink's
intention is to kick-start the economy. The &ailbelt
cities told him to initiate sales tax and do anything
rather than take funds away from the small communities.
Mayor Pink has proposed a Railbelt coalition, they had
a meeting in Juneau. 4 mayors from the Kenai Peninsula
agreed they would not participate. Anchorage may have
to lay off 500 people or 25%. This would continue to
cause the economy to spiral downward. This resolution
says we will support Municipal Assistance and Revenue
Sharing based on 1986 level. That is higher than last
year. The Kenai Borough resolution states priority N1
is "Fait Accompli." 12 is what is in our resolution.
M3 and N4 must be Railbelt Energy funds. The amount is
what the Railbelt fund has in it. if we use that,
other projects will not be done. in supporting the
first part of the resolution, he said he would bring
the rest to Council. He did not recommend capital
improvement project money for this. The Railbelt funds
have already been appropriated. To re -appropriate them
would not be right. Councilman KoComsey said Fairbanks
had to lay off over 100 people. Mayor Williams noted
that is 1/2 of their work force. But money to bail out
Anchorage should not be from the Railbelt Energy fund.
City Manager Brighton added, it is close to $350,000
additional for the City of Kenai. Councilwoman
O'Reilly said she had difficulty with Borough
Resolution 88-4, Section 2-A. They have not done
anything locally. This should be a joint effort.
Motion passed by unanimous consent.

Rene Daniels said they put $1,800 from the bar
into the restaurant. Mayor Williams asked if the

Borough was working with a monthly -instead of
Quarterly now. Rene Daniels replied, for 1987.
Mayor Williams said the Borough is placing more

effort to collect taxes due. Councilwoman Monfor
said Footwear Gallery owed for years, this has
only been 2-3 months. They have taken over a bed
f
situation. She would like to give them 30 days to

would like to see the budget first. Admin. Asst.

Mr. Ernst replied, the first 15 will be staked, we will
charge a fee. Councilman Measles noted they are not
slips like the boat harbor, He asked if our lease
rates were in line with other locations. Mr. Ernst
replied yes. Councilman Measles asked, what is the tie
down rate for wheeled planes? Mr. Ernst replied, $42
Including tax. The use of a water runway will only be
5 months. There will not be skis in winter, there is a
liability with the thickness of the ice. He
roaommended the ski facility be on land. Councilman
Measles asked, what do other facilities do regarding .
liability? Mr. Ernst replied he did not know, this
will be the next step.
MOTIONS
Councilwoman O'Reilly moved, seconded by Councilman
MaComsey, that the rates for the float plane basin be
set at $360 per year for non-commercial tiedown slips
and $480 for commercial tiedown slips, as recommended.

In winter. He would be eoncerned closing now. It
would be hard to got anyone for the rest of the summer. i
if it was November, it would be different. Mayor
Williams said they were given a confession of judgement
in three months, or was that the previous lease? Mr.
Ernst replied, that was the previous lease. The reason
for a one year lease is because of the remodeling.
Legal Asst. Sutcliffe explained, when their lease
expires June 30, you could allow on a month to month
basis till Fall, then ovict or they could leave. 1
Councilman Measles said he was concerned about entering
Into a year lease if we go ahead with renovation, it
would be cleaner for the City and the lessee to get
renovation completed or at least know what we will do "
and then go out for RPP. It will be harder to get a
good bid. Mayor Williams said we put a stop -gap
measure on renovation pending a review of our finances.
We were to review in the Fall. The best choice is
month to month lease till Fall. Councilman Measles {
suggested we should look at it sooner and more often.
If the Borough does not withdraw their objection, they
will not have a license anyhow.

high school in town. When they open Nikiski they
will have 300+, KCHS will have 400+, the Jr. High
will have 200+. There will be 900 across town.
We will have to Compete. City Manager Brighton
said Council authorized that statement 3 years
ago. They did everything they could to prevent
this. These people are bringing in on emotion,
not with economics or academics. Councilwoman
Kantor suggested the Mayor write a letter to the
Borough stating what is in the Councilman
Ackerly's letter and council's feelings. The
boundary would be the City limits and current
boundaries on the other side. Mayor Williams said
at one school board meeting he attended he got a
head count of people from Kenai. There were not
many. Maybe the residents of Kenai do not
understand the full implication.
Council agreed to send the letter.
City Manager Brighton said, in the public opinion

or Williams said, regarding the economic impact
the City, people would limit their shopping in

LOW Councilman MCComsey said Kenai has to go
with them or they will not get their borough.
Mayor Williams said they could have 2 second'. class
cities in a second class borough. They could have
a unified municipality. They would not have
control of their schools. The only way they could
control their schools is creating their own
borough. Councilman McComsey noted the petitions
will be on the streets in 2 weeks. They need j
about 2,300 signatures. This will be a ballot of
the people in the area.
b. Councilwoman Swarner. she asked if there was a
list of roads to be brought up to standard.
Public Works Director Kornelis replied, he made a
list about a year ago. Councilwoman Swarner noted
the dirt road off 4th Z Aspen. There is erosion
to 4th, it needs to be corrected. Mr. Kornelis
explained, it is 1/2 right of way. There is a
house in the right of way. Councilwoman Swarner j
said 5th St. in Woodland S/D is eroding. Mayor
Williams asked about the $140,000 budgeted for
street repairs last year. Mr. Kornelis replied,
that will be done in the Spring. There is about
$100,000 left. The majority is for sealcoating
Woodland, Mommsen and Redoubt.

VOTE:
There was no public comment.
Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote.
Atty. Rogers explained, he declared a conflict in this
matter. He asked Atty. Dolifka to take his place at
the table at this time.
ATTY. DOLIFKA TOOK THE CHAIR FOR ATTY. ROGERS,
Councilman Measles asked, what happens if we do not pay
$66,000 by April 19? Atty. Dolifka replied, the
purpose of bringing to Council is that by April 19 the
State forecloses. The purpose of this is to avoid
additional costs. There will have to be two
foreclosures. Do you want a saving of cost and fees
for first and second foreclosure? If you do nothing it
will not jeopardize your position. As long as we pay
those before foreclosure you are okay. $5,000 each
foreclosure, a total of $10,000 saving. Councilman
Measles asked, any costs of first and second if they
proceed with the foreclosure? Atty. Dolifka replied
yes. if we complete our foreclosure at July S. If the
State starts theirs May 1,-it will be August before --
these came to'sale. At that time the City will have tc
pay those off - costs and fees of two foreclosures. I1
you do nothing you do not prejudice your position to
pay off at a later date. You go to July B. Councilmat
Measles asked, there is no cost to them if they

foreclose? Atty. Dolifka replied, if you do it they
will not. You will have far higher costs and fees than
what we will with this one. Do you want to pay this
now to avoid legal fees and costs of two foreclosures?
Or pay off at a later date and then pay fees?
Councilman Measles asked, what would be the possibility
of negotiating a buy-out at lesser cost? Atty. Dolifka
replied, you should try but he is not overly
optimistic. They have the City where they want, they
are in total position of power. A similar situation
shows this will show precedence. I have always been
denied in the past. That is why the City was asked to
subordinate. If you were in first and they were in
second and third, this is public money, the City -would
be betray public trust to do this. Councilman Measles
asked, if the State foreclosed and the City did
nothing, the State is first, what happens to the second
and third? Atty. Dolifka replied, they continue
second, so they do not care. Your foreclosure would be
complete July 8, the City will own at that time,
subject to first and second. If you do nothing and
they foreclose Aug. 15, you will lose the Dairy Queen
to them. You have three choices, if you do nothing
more, you will lose the property.
The Notice of Abandonment was distributed.
Mayor Williams said the property is under City control
at this time. The request is to approve $225,000 from
airport funds to hold in position to be used to pay off
$56,000 immediately and the remaining balance of first
and second mortgage held by the State. We have begun
foreclosure proceedings. If we do nothing with this,
we will continue till we complete action. If we elect
to let first and second foreclose in August, we face
the potential of losing the entire property. If we
force the State to move against us with foreclosure we
could encumber additional debt of $7,000 to $10,000.
Councilman Measles asked, what is the total of first?
Atty. Dolifka replied, the principal balance of the
first is $160,000; the principal balance of the second
is $20,000. Penalties would be accrued interest. The
City is $330,000. Mayor Williams added, $56,000 is
accrued interest. Atty. Dolifka added, part is
principal. Mayor Williams asked, is $225000
sufficient to cover the debt? Atty. Dolifka replied,
$225,000 was on the basis of a call to B. Darnell. We
thought it would cover it. Councilman Measles asked,
if. -the -State _foreclosed_ _and took. the property_,_ would
both the second and third have to benefit before they
can foreclose? Atty. Dolifka replied, the State
controls second. The City will find themselves -in -the -
same position as the debtors. The court recently held
that even if you start foreclosure, you can change.

You have to decide if it is worth your time. Do we
want to walk from this property and lose our $330,000 .
or pay for second and first. The City has a difficult
position because they are in public trust. You have to
look at it in a different light. City Manager Brighton
said we cannot walk from that property. FAA will
require we make payment to airport funds. Mayor
Williams asked, would it be improper, now that we have
taken physical control, to at this point discuss
potential for that property? Atty. Dolifka replied,
one of the main reasons for notice of abandonment was
when they abandon you have -certain rights to take
possession. You can discuss potential but it is not
your property till July 8. If you discuss potential
with other people, you have that caveat* if you pay it
all off now, they can step in and pay only their
arrears. You could talk potential but always with the
condition that you may not be able to take title.
Mayor Williams asked, would we lose credibility if
information was passed to Coimcil at this time with no
strings attached? Atty. Dolifka replied from executive
sessions I was directed to start action. The owners
havo abandoned. You are not in ownership, just
possession. You have no rights to enter into contract.
FAA may do, that will be a different ball game
subsequent to this. If you did nothing, and FAA would
sue you for specific performance, you do not want that
to happen. Mayor Williams said he can see us putting
$1.2 Million into this. Councilman Measles said not if
we pay off and take the property back. if we lose the
property, then we would have to pay fair market value,
it may be less than $225,000 to pay off the State.
City Manager Brighton explained he was indicating if we
wanted to walk, we cannot walk. The information is,
there are Dairy Queen operators in Anchorage that are
extremely interested in acquiring this property. They
have been in his office and he said he could not start
negotiating a contract till this was settled. He said
he would notify them when he was in a position to talk
to them. They are extremely interested in acquiring
the property. Mayor Williams said we are not taking a
big chance in paying off and holding the property. The
economic downturn is at or near the bottom.
Councilwoman Swarner asked, has the sales tax been
filed? Mayor Williams replied he has been assured by
the past owner it was taken care of. Acct. Parnell
...-said.they-have always .kept up with -sales tax.

B-1 Dave Hutchings - Police Car Bids
Dave -Hutchings- Hutchings -Chevrolet: In May 1967 he
was awarded the bid for two 1988 police cars. He put
in his bid that he did not have 1988 costs. His bid
-was
--
was subject to-1968-increases: when he awarded the-
bid, it was his error. He did not read the PO. it
said they would award the cars if he would bill at 1967
prices. When they came through, they came at $800-f900
more than 1987 price. He wrote to Police Chief Ross to

ask if the City could take them off his hands and pay „1t4�_ •Sr'
the difference. Chief Ross said no, the bid will
stand. The Chevrolet company got the price down to $80 '7
from the 1987 price. The City has 1988's instead of {
19871s. The increase was 5l-6%. $250 per vehicle is {
within $300 lees than actual invoice. Atty. Rogers
said the mistake is Hutchings. The integrity of the
bid process takes precedence in this situation. If you
start doing other than what should be done, you are
"opening Pandora's box." Mistakes have been done
before for more money. He urged Council to follow the
bid and not give relief in this instance. Mr.
Hutchings said he would prefer not to donate $500 to
the City. He has no alternative to keep or send them 1
back. He would request if he spent an additional $50O
to sell them, he would like to see the $500 go to a i
children's playground or something so he would feel it
did not go to the City. Atty. Rogers said the $500 is `
already out of his pocket, now he wants the City to
donate to charity. Mr. Hutchings said the City would
get the benefit of appreciation of the vehicles. Mayor
Williams said we have received in excess of our
purchase. We have $500 surplus, we can donate $500 to
the children's library or playgrounds.
Council took no action.
0-2 Red Goodwin, dba GVC Productions - Promotional Videos
Mr. Goodwin explained he does videos for promotionals, "
industry and recreational. He has 30 second �
commorcials. He is proposing a video monitor in the
airport terminal on a continual basis. It would have
information about the City and advertising from local i
businesses. He would lease the business from the City >
and be responsible for the monitor, installation and
maintenance. Mr. Goodwin showed a short video. He
explained, it would give monthly revenue to the City.
He would be willing to sign a lease. Advertising is
getting expensive, it would be a good business for
affordable advertising. A good number of people travel
through the airport. For residents and visitors, it
would be entertaining. Councilwoman Monfor asked, what
is the cost to the City? Mr. Goodwin replied, nothing.
Councilwoman Monfor said the City just had a video
made. Mr. Goodwin noted that was still shots. He `
would like to put one together of his own with his own
script. There would be 1-1/2 minutes for information,
30 second commercials. He would tie it together, exo
fishing with fish ads, etc. Airport Manager Ernst said
he has not talked to Mr. Goodwin at length. He did
tell him he is not the first to have the idea. He has
discouraged the last two. The reason is that this type
of video has two drawbacks. a) constant sound audio
portion. it cannot be interrupted for flight calls.
b) We may run into conflict with existing advertising
in the kiosks. He would like to see some type of music
in the terminal rather than this. Maybe the City would
be better to have their own showing areas in Kenai to
see. The square footage rate for this would not bring
La -much money. Atty. Rogers said all commercial
enterprises let in the airport have been pursuant to
RFD's. An exclusive would not be granted or else you
would _have to allow -equal access to any other -such - - - -. - _ -_ - . _ _ --- - - _ .._. -_ .— ___
business. Councilwoman O'Reilly asked Mr. Goodwin if
he had this type of thing in place now. Mr. Goodwin
replied no, this type of thing is in hotels.
Councilwoman O'Reilly asked, what would the time limit
be? Mr. Goodwin replied, two hour loop of segments,

Airport Manager Ernst replied it was brought to the
Commission at a work session. Councilwoman Swarnor said
she would like to give it to the Airport Commission,
this type of proposal in general. Mayor Williams
suggested they discuss some type of stop-go system when
it Le necessary. f

B-3 Clarence Ladd - Proposal to Close Senior Center 1
Carpenter Shop & Additional vehicle Parking + --
Clarence Ladd, Kenai. Mr. Ladd distributed material. }
Parking area. The space is inadequate, the south side
would be boat for enlarging. He and Glenn Jackson have
offered material and labor if the City furnishes
gravel.
Workshop. Safety has been a concern. It has been in
operation for 5-6 years without an accident. It should
be used only by qualified persons. Many tasks are
being done in the shop without electric equipment, for
repair more than any other reason. The pictures show
both men and women keep busy there, that is vital to
their well being. Repair work that has been done at
the Center has been done by them. The director ordered
material to repair chairs. It need windows and
ventilation for a smoking room. Why dismantle when we
already have it? He asked to have his pictures
returned. It is his desire that the shop be kept open.
There are many seniors here this date. Councilwoman
swarner asked, what is the City liability? Atty.
Rogers replied, he met with Kurt Olson and reviewed it.
The liability of the City is extensive. The reasons
area there is safety equipment, it is not always used.
There is equipment on the machines dependent on
operators. There is no supervision by an employee of
the City other than Program Director Porter. She is
not qualified nor does she have the time to supervise.
There is no training by City employees for their use.
There has not been a critique by engineers, there will
be if the shop stays open. It will be reflected in our
insurance premium. The premium would go up if there -
was an accident. The senior citizens would not be
covered by workmen's compensation. It was put to a
vote, it was not overwhelming but was voted to close.
Councilwoman Monfor noted, in the pictures there is a
list of workshop rules. It has to have a permit of
instructions, there are none. it also says they must -
use goggles, the picture shows no goggles.
Councilwoman O'Reilly asked, how many seniors use the
shop on a regular basis? Mr. Ladd replied, in the last
few months, there is steady use. The shop is used
without electric equipment. Many people are using it
the same as the craft room, electricity is in there
with a kiln, they could be hurt there. Councilwoman
O'Reilly noted the rules are posted. is there anything
to -prevent someone using -them that -knows -nothing about-
the equipment? Mr. Ladd replied no, they should not be
used without supervision. He suggested the plugs
should be pulled when not in use. We can -do much there - - - - -------
without using electric equipment. There are 50-60
people in the community that are willing to keep it
open. In most cases they do not use electric
equipment. Councilwoman Monfor asked, what if we let
it open and took out the electric equipment? Mr. Ladd

said he would feel bad. There are qualified people
that use it. He suggested two people at one time for i
safety. The City employees can use it also. It
belongs to the City.
Betty Warren, Box 116, Kenai. She did not want to see
it closed either. The vote was 44 to open, 54 to
close. There are mitigating circumstances now. She is
concerned about safety. There are people who are
visually and physically impaired that use it. It is
used very little. it cost $150 sq. ft. to make an
addition. we are bulging. The wood shop is being used
for craft people. We do not want to take out those
things. Perhaps people that do not use the senior
center signed under the 44 votes. She did not think i
Mr. Ladd should go to business people in the City.
None of those people have a right to say how we operate
our center. We have had volunteers numerous times
going to the shop to help and no one showed up. She 1
agreed with Mr. Ladd regarding the parking. City
Manager Brighton asked if Council on Aging had taken a j4
position on this. Mrs. Warren replied, they voted on
Lt. It was in the April newsletter. They had a vote
for one week. Councilwoman Monfor asked, did Mrs.
Warren think the seniors would be willing to pay the
liability insurance to keep the shop open? Mrs. Warren
asked, all the seniors or those that use it?
Councilwoman Monfor replied, elLher. Mrs. Warren
replied, they cannot afford it.
Mayor Williams requested the Council on Aging submit a
formal report and the insurance company submit a report
on liability. Then Council will make a decision.
Ladyt Liability insurance would be on 5-8 people, not
90 people. Chances of an accident with that many
people would be loss.
S-4 Jason Elson 6 Scott Walden - Alaska State Firefighters
Convention <<
•I
Jason Elson. The Kenai Peninsula Chapter will host the
1988 Firefighters and Fire Chiefs Aeon. meeting. it is
the legislative arm for the fire services. They

volunteer. There are 100 members in the Fire Chiefs
Assn. Kenai is the youngest, approximately 26 years.
143 members Peninsula -wide, including Homer, Seward,
Soldotna, Kenai, Anchor Point, Nikiski. The purpose of

areas of the Peninsula during the session. The support
has been overwhelming. They have the support of the
Kenai Peninsula Caucus and the Chambers of Commerce.
Scott Walden. Three years ago they submitted an
application for hosting the meetings. It was granted 1
to the Peninsula. They ham a -Peninsula -meeting a year-
ago to bid on the area. It was a secret ballot, Kenai
was unanimous. The main reason was access - Or and
road. It will be at the KCBs auditorium. They will
have many vendors. The conference has traditionally
been at one site. Many people in the State have not f i
been to the Peninsula. They will -have training

a minimum of 300 people. The Aeon. is self-supporting, j
part is from the Alaska Firefighters Aeon., part isi;
grant, and part is the Kenai Peninsula Assn. They hope
to have a small profit to put towards next year's
meeting. One of the obstacles is this is a Kenai
Peninsula function, Kenai City is sponsoring it. There
are 300 registered for the meeting.
City Manager Brighton noted 40%-50% will bring spouses.
Councilman Ackerly suggested the Assn. get a follow-up —
at the and of the session for the Econ. Devel. data
bank. Councilwoman 8warner noted in the packet, it is
not the Lowell Thomas gallery. Mr. Eloon invited
Council to the Open House at the Fire Dept. Mayor
Williams added, he will be lobbying for location of the I '
fire training field in the Borough. we could become
the fire training site for the whole state.
B-5 Jerry Near, Bud Lofstedt - LID's
I
Jerry Near, Ridgeway. In 1963, he and Bud Lofstedt
sold a parcel of 25 lots in Redoubt Terrace to a local i
builder. The builder put in water & sewer at his own
expense. The value increased so the builder got 1
$85,000 additional from the bank. More homes were
built. The builder petitioned the City for an LID of
$70,000 to pave roads. As the economy began to erode,
the builder could not pay back on the second. The
builder never paid the City on the LID. He also
defaulted on the first. The bank instituted
foreclosure and said they wanted the property. In one
year they took the property and then gave it beck to
Mr. Near and Mr. Lofstedt. They are the first
mortgageos. It is $70,000 in debt, most of it in
arrears. They find themselves under foreclosure in the
City. They are not alone. If this come: down it will
pull other properties down and put a substantial amount
of land on the market. I
Bud Lofstedt, Box 1616, Kenai. To solve this without a
logs, they are requesting 90 days to bring this
current. They could sell enough to bring it current.
If they cannot, they will give back the sand to the
City. it is not their fault. They gold in good faith.
The builder has not paid anything on this, they owe it
all. If they could have the City's help, they will try
to bring it current. Atty. Rogers said some time back
he was party to a meeting with Mr. Lofstedt, Mr. Near
and City Manager Brighton. Although we are further
down the road, the property they speak of is presently
advertised in the paper. The listed owner is NBA. We i
take our records from the Kenai Borough. He believed
it was in the April 19 paper. They have requested 90
days to bring this current. There is no way in the
legal process, that he is aware of, to stop the process
and start over. if Council gave special help to one,
it stops the proceedings. You don't start again, you
have to start over. We cannot hold this in abeyance.
The other problem is you would have to differentiate
between this parcel and other parcels that request the
same consideration. He sees a problem of equity.
Councilwoman Monfor said -she did -not think they could - - - ----- ----------
decide now. Are we foreclosing on NBA? Atty. Rogers
replied no, we are going to propose. Councilwoman

we should not be in the land business. Why are we not
to them if they are willing to work~
willing work with
with us? Atty. Rogers explained, there is the right of
redemption. it exists at this time till the court
rules. Councilwoman Swarner asked, if they had come
before it was published, would it be more legal? Atty.
Rogers replied no, this is not property we hold paper
on, this was improvements at the request of the owners
at the time. The fact that people bought from other
people is of no legal consequence. Mayor Williams said
we have a group problem with foreclosure on several
properties. We cannot take this entire group of
properties presently being foreclosed on without
setting aside the entire group of properties. in Oct.
AHPC put a hold on foreclosures. We can take that
4
position here also. if we do, we have to see what will
happen on July i to see if there are any others.
Councilwoman O'Reilly suggested a work session. Mayor
Williams asked, when is the date for foreclosure?
Atty. Rogers replied he did not know. Mayor Williams
said there is a period of time that people can come
Ic
forward, the first right of redemption. if you paid,
the property would revert back to you. The City will
not put out for market right away. There is a period
of time involved. Mr. Lofstedt noted the 90 days puts
them through July. Atty. Rogers said what you do in
any instance will have a bearing on those paying their
!
assessments. There are some large assessments coming
"
due in July, ex: Inlet Woods, $250,000. Will we be
setting a precedent for them or others or those now
current that would not want to be? Mayor Williams
asked that Administration have information regarding
the time between foreclosure and redemption period for
the next meeting.

NOTION:
Councilman Ackerly moved, seconded by Councilman

PUBLIC COMMENT$
a. Tom Wagoner, 4040 Primrose Place, Kenai. in the
86-87 capital improvement list, the sewer
interceptor for Thompson Pk was N5 for $1.45
Million. In 87-88 it was #12 for $1,450,000. In
86-89 it is voided from N1 through #10. It was
dropped from health 6 safety also. why has it
been totally dropped? Why is the City considering
improving the water system that is a user
supported system? The proper method is to assess
users, not assess all citizens. 30% of the
citizens are non -users, they should not pay. He
;ed Council to defeat the resolution, do a study
Thompson Pk - what assessments would be for
= 6 sewer to be installed, contact each
►party owner regarding what their feelings are,
in reconsider the resolution. The only
formation from Thompson Pk was the petition with
[uestionst a) would you like to see sewer in
imp on Pk, and b) would you like to sae water in
$mpson Pk. The city would not be smart to
;tall one or the other, but both. Council
u&imously voted not to put finish gravel on
)mpson Pk till they made a decision on water i
oar. if we installed, we would lose a large
aunt of gravel. The Council planned to go in
th water 6 sewer at a later time. Council had
t-508 assessment policy for paving and water 6
rer. There are people in Thompson -Pk in -dire
3d of water 6 sewer. The banks, City and
rough gave permission to have common water and
#er, that should not have -been allowed. It was
upped from the capital improvement list because
was too large a sum. The first 2-3 projects
o $2.98 Million. You already have $562,000.
n have $890,000 to complete, that is cheaper.

Mayor Williams replied, this is the actual cost to
take a sewer interceptor to Thompson Pk, not 4
through it. Mr. Wagoner replied, he is willing to
pay to get into Thompson Pk, not the City. He did
not think the people in Thompson Pk expected to
pay. Aliak only paid 25%. He is asking for
reconsideration of some capital improvement 4
priorities. He asked that this be defeated and
the people of Thompson Pk be consulted. Mayor
Williams said the survey he reviewed was more than
informal. This action was based on that.
Thompson Pk survey did not give a clear result as
to water a sewer. The water system a are self
supporting when constructed, but most were built I
by goverment moneys. Originally they thought
$196,000 was available of $561,000. From the
Fairbanks lawsuit, =562,000 was made available to
us. It was his understanding $2,243,000 was to
get the sewer line to Thompson Pk. We are
$1,700,000 short at this time. He would like to
clean up the water they already have.
Councilwoman O'Reilly asked, when was the survey
done? Admin. Asst. Gerstlauer replied, 1982.
City Manager Brighton explained, the result was,
50% wanted water, the same 50% did not want ewer.
50% wanted sewer. whatever they did, 1/2 would be
mad. We have had water to Thompson Pk for at
least 9 years, it has not been distributed because
there was not enough interest in running water
through. The $500,000 is match money, to use it
we have to match. This resolution is to ask for
direct grant without match. Councilwoman O'Reilly\
said if the survey was done in 1982 and there is a
question as to how scientific it was, she would
think the population has changed considerably.
Councilwoman Monfor said one of the reasons water
was not taken into Thompson Pk is they would have
to tear everything up to put in sower. They
wanted to put in both at the same time. Mayor
Williams said, regardless of whether we do
together or not, you have to tear up the streets 2
times. We accept the grant, we will have to match
with $500,000. If we re -allocate to other moneys,
we will be able to receive as a grant. He asked
if we were bound by the previous resolution and
match or will we have to rescind the last
resolution? Mr. Wagoner noted the figure he had
was $1,450,000. What is the new figure? Mayor
Williams replied, $2,243,000. Public works
Director Kcrnelis said the engineering design has
been completed. That was the old figure. The
engineering has not been completed yet. Mr.
Wagoner said the instructions for survey were not
specific. He is asking for a specific proposal.
They could have 2 aesessment districts, one in
halls also. If the City did not plan to go
ough with this, why did they ask for this in
first place? There was 14-1/2 Million to $S
lion in the City reserve. Now we are up to •7

with no strings attached. Mr. Wagoner asked,
where was the $562,000 from? Mayor Williams
replied, that was the original grant. Mr.
Kornelis explained, the original grant was $2
Million, they only allotted $562,000. Councilman
Measles asked, how long is the original grant good
for? Mr. Kornelis replied, it is from DEC, it is
not a direct appropriation. The grant does not
show a deadline. If it is not spent, DEC can
spend at their discretion. councilman Measles
said if we don't ask for re -allocation, how long
do we have the $562,0007 City Manager Brighton
explained, this is different than a capital
improvement project grant, if we do not use in the
next year, the legislature can re -allocate. Till
the money is committed, it is subject to
redistribution by the legislature. Councilwoman
O'Reilly asked, if we request re -allocation, do we
have to have a special project, or can we sit on
it for awhile? Mr. Brighton replied, it must be
somewhat definitive. Our wording is drinking
water improvements. Councilwoman Swarner asked,
what guarantee do we have we will not lose it at
the next legislature? Mr. Brighton replied, none.
The reason we got a call from the legislators is,
many legislators are into DEC funding and
re -appropriation. if we do not ask for
re -appropriation it could be re -allocated to other
areas by grant. The legislators appropriate
money, any not spent is subject to
re -appropriation. The call was to protect our
appropriation and to sea if it was committed to a
project. Councilwoman Monfor asked, by accepting
Res. 87-16, did that commit us to a project?
Finance Director Brown noted, we have not received
it yet. Mr. Brighton explained, we have not
appropriated the match money yet. Councilwoman
O'Reilly said we are talking about the same
$562,000. Why did it have to be a match before
but not now? Mr. Kornelis explained, DEC grants
are always a match. Councilwoman O'Reilly asked,
if it were re -allocated, would it be DEC? Answer
- no. Councilman Ackerly added, we can do
anything we want then. Councilwoman Monfor noted,
this is specific. councilman Measles said that
limits it to water. We have water in Thompson Pk,
so it takoe it out of Thompson Pk. If you put in
water, you should put in sewer. The survey should
say both, not either/ori and, are you willing to
pay for it?
MOTION, Amendmonto
Councilman Ackerly moved, seconded by Councilwoman
Monfor, to amend the motion as follows, Heading, line
4, delete the word "drinkingi" Line 5, add the words

Finance Director Brown & Atty. Rogers and current
employment contracts for City Manager Brighton and
Atty. Rogers.

employees of the City not covered by employee contracts
MOTION, Amendment:
Councilman Ackerly moved, with consent of second, to
amend the motion to include all employees except exempt
employees.
Councilwoman O'Reilly stated she had a member of her
family employed by the City. Was this considered a
conflict? Atty. Rogers replied it is the same as
assessment districts, there is no conflict.
Councilwoman O'Reilly said the employees have not had
an increase in 3 years. 3% is not an overly generous
amount in view of the cost of living, no matter what
has happened to the economy. We have fine, outstanding
employees, this should be approved as a vote of
confidence. Councilwoman Monfor said 3% is fair.
Maybe -next year we could -look again. - -They have not

I am only one of a number of friends or neighbors who received
exorbitant gas bills in February. One acquaintance who is forced
to live outside due to the current economy, received a $216 gas
bill for an e�emptyhouse, in which all but a bare minimum of heat
has been turneTcff.
All in all the combination of increased rates and "computer
averaging" has put a severe burden on many of us who are Enstar
customers. I firmly request that these practices be
investigated. If Enstar is truly not paying more for the gas,
why -are we? If Enstar has _meter _readers_ _on their payroll, why
aren't they out working, instead of letting a computer do the
job, and a darn bad one. And if Enstar wants to justify their
47% increase to me, they could hire a few ate meter readers and
get the meters read each and every month and at the same time put
a few of our unemployed men and women to work, which would boost
the economy. Computers have their places in our lives, but they
cannot compete with the "human" element. They cannot adjust for
weather conditions, or for the fact that a house has sat empty
for months, while the computer averaged monthly consumption at a
lower and lower rate, only -to suddenly be made aware, through the.
"human' element, that actual consumptionwas higher by getting a'
bill 150 to 200% higher than expected. I truly feel this is an
injustice to Enstar's customers. C)

Dear Mayor Williams and City Council members;
Thank you for sending me a copy of Resolution 88-7 and Resolution 88.8
which urges the state to resume funding of the FRED Division at levels that
will ensure full funding for the Trail Lakes Hatchery and the continuation
and expansion of the fish by-products industry.
Enclosed please find a copy of a letter from Fish and Game Commissioner Don
Collinsworth which addresses some of the concerns noted in Resolution 88-7.
If funds were available, I would also oppose contracting out any hatchery
in the state. However, with the legislature looking at the possibility of
a $100 to $400 million shortfall in the fiscal year 189 budget, the
legislature is looking for innovative ways to make up for these expected
deficits. One of those innovative methods is to contract out four
hatcheries to regional aquaculture associations. Otherwise, four
hatcheries would be scheduled for closure.
The true sport fish hatcheries; Big Lake, Fort Richardson, and Elmendorf
are and will continue to be under the supervision of the FRED Division.
The hatcheries at Kitoi, Cannery Creek, Hidden Falls and Trails Lake are
those being considered for transfer to the regional aquaculturs
associations. The aquaculture associations are the more appropriate entity
to transfer these hatcheries rather than bidding out the hatcheries on a
competitive basis.
The aquaculture associations were established under AS 16.10.380 for the
purpose of enhancing salmon production and amending as necessary a
comprehensive salmon plan. The associations are to possess a board of
directors which includes -no -less than -one representative of each user group
that belongs to the association. Thus the associations already have -the
mechanism in.place-_to implement salmon enhancement plans for the particular
region it represents. The comprehensive salmon plans, found —in —AS
16.10.375, are developed by Department of Fish and Game and regional
associations, such as Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association. Thus the
associations must manage the hatcheries to accede to the regional salmon
plan, whereas, a private nonprofit hatchery is not necessarily bound to
V

follow the guidelines of a regional salmon plan. Sportfishing, as well as
subsistence needs, must also be considered when the associations work with
the regional plans for enhancement purposes.
The associations have a long and successful history of managing hatcheries
and handling this type of activity. Any plans for enhancement projects
must meet with the approval of the aquaculture association's board, which
is comprised of sports, commercial and subsistence fishermen, and the FRED
Division. It might be in your best interest to contact Tom Mears, Director
of the Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association, and discuss with him any plans
the association might have for all its enhancement programs.
Responding to Resolution 88-8, the position of the principal biologist in
the Southcentral region, held by Dr. Ken- Leon, has not been funded for
fiscal year 89. however, Dr. Leon will be retained in the FRED Division.
Dr. Leon has accepted the position of regional biologist with the
division's Southeast region. Because of recent personnel turnovers in the
Southeast region, it is felt that Dr. Leon can best contribute to the
division from this regional position. Dr. Brian Allee, director of the
FRED Division, has assured me that Dr. Leon, who has been the architect
behind the Alaska Dry Pellet program, will still provide any oversight that
may be needed to sustain the dry pellet food program.
Change is almost inevitable. With declining revenues, the FRED Division
had to align its staff to meet future needs. Development of the Alaska Dry
Pellet is well advanced and can just about stand on its own merits at this
time, thus allowing the FRED Division to direct its resources toward other
pursuits.
The Alaska Dry Pellet is being used in both public and private nonprofit
hatcheries throughout the state and has gained an excellent reputation.
Most of the state hatchery managers are using the ADP product. It would be
highly unlikely that a change in food products would occur knowing the
confidence hatchery managers have in the Alaska Dry Pellet, as long as work
continues to upgrade the quality of the product and prices remain
competitive with those products produced in the lower 48. I will do
whatever possible to ensure the promotion and use of this product by our
state and private hatchery facilities.
Mayor Williams and Council members, your input and interest in this matter
is truly appreciated. If I can be of further service, please do not
hesitate to contact my office.

Dear Representative Swackhammers '
You have expressed concern about the Trail Lakes Hatchery.
Apparently, this concern is based on comments you received from
constituents in the Seward/Kenai Peninsula areas. Unfortunately,
there is confusion related to contracting -out the operation of
state hatcheries to regional aquaculture associations. I would
like to explain the FY 89 budget strategy for Trail Lakes
t Hatchery as well as discuss the program there to help clear up 4
this confusion.
A recent article in the Seward newspaper focused on the closure
of the hatchery. Contrary to that article, the administration's ;{
position is not to close any hatcheries if it can be avoidedl the .�
hatchery program is very successful and should be maintained.
Unfortunately, the General Fund dollars for the Fisheries
Rehabilitation, Enhancement and Development (FRED) Division have :..:
been reduced by more than 30 percent since FY 88. As a result,
the division is facing a serious funding shortfall. In the
absence of full funding for hatcheries, the division's short-term
and incremental approach is to contract operations of selected,
state hatcheries to the private sector. The FY 89 budget
proposes that four of the states 19 hatcheries be contracted to
the private sectors these are the Trail Lakes Hatchery, the Kitoi
Bay Hatchery near Kodiak, the Cannery Creek Hatchery in Prince
William Sound, and the Hidden Falls Hatchery in Southeast.
Under the proposed FY 89 budget, a contract would be written
which stipulates that production at the Trail Lakes Hatchery be
maintained. The contract would address continuing both the
_.-- - --- commercial- and sport- -fish production at the facility. '; In
addition to assuring that fish production is maintained, the .".
- - -- - -- -- contract- would contain - language -to protect the state rs -investment -
in the hatchery building and state equipment.'
The department intends to negotiate the contracts- witbTT{{, ssg,'IpM .;a

The Honorable C. E.
Swackhammer

March 24, 1988
However, an amendment to Title 16 of the Alaska Statutes must bed
approved by this 1988 Legislature before contracts can be
negotiated. Since negotiations cannot presently occur the
department cannot at this time come to a firm and binding
agreement with an aquaculture association to assure that it would
pay the costs of producing fish at Trail Lakes for the sport
fishery. Because of the concern of various parties in the Seward
and Cook Inlet areas that the sport fishery production continue,
Dr. Brian J. Allee, FRED Division Director, has been cooperating
with your staff and Governor Cowper's staff to request $39,304 in
the department budget to fund sport fish production at Trail
Lakes. (Enclosed is a line -item, sport fish budget for Trail
Lakes.)
The Trail Lakes Hatchery was designed as a central incubation
facility allowing for production of fry and smolt utilizing
several species of salmon. A diverse and broad -based production
program has evolved to support commercial and sport fisheries

Dear Mayor Williams:
Thank you for providing me with a copy of Kenai Resolution
No. 88-29 supporting the operation of the Trail Lakes Hatchery
and its coho and Chinook salmon smolt -planting program. Your
borough's support for this important hatchery has always been
appreciated.
You should have received my April 7 letter. If not, that letter
was in response to Kenai Resolution Nos. 88-7 and 88-8 where I
explained the importance of the sport fish program at Trail Lakes
Hatchery, which includes the Resurrection Bay coho and Chinook
salmon smolt -planting program. I would like to reiterate a
statement I made in that letter:
Because of the concern of various parties in the Seward
and Cook Inlet areas that the sport fishery production
continue [at Trail Lakes Hatchery], Dr. Brian J. Alles,
MD Division Director, has been cooperating with the
Legislature and Governor Cowper's staff to request
$39,304 in the department's budget to fund sport fish
production at Trail Lakes as an interim approach for
the FY 89 budget year. In future years, the FRED
Division will reprogram sport fish production from
Trail Lakes to its other production hatcheries. In any
case, the sport fishery program at Seward and the Kenai
Peninsula will continue with no disruption.
I hope my April 7 letter clarified the dedication of the
Department of Fish and Game in ensuring continuation of the sport
fish program at Trail Lakes Hatchery indefinitely.
Thank you for your support-* it is -because -of communities such -as
yours that make programs such as this beneficial to all involved.

Committee for Borough Detachment
Sox 8425
Nikiski, AK 99635
Dear Mr. Superman:
This is to formally, advise you that the Local Boundary Commis-
sion has considered the alternative procedures available to
petition for the detachment of territory from the Kenai Penin-
sula Borough. The Commission concluded that the local election
,process would be the most appropriate method to address the
prospective petition.
The Commission's decision was based principally upon the fol-
lowing considerations:
• Under either process -- legislative review or local elec-
tion -- the standards which would be used by the Commission
to judge the petition would be identical.
09 A greater commitment would be required to initiate a peti-
tion under the local election process. Based upon recent
data from the Division of Elections, initiation of a peti-
tion using the local election method would require the sig-
natures of .1,318 qualified voters. A petition under the
legislative review process would require the signatures of
only 527 qualified voters.
" Perhaps most importantly, the local election method is the
only means to ensure that detachment could not occur with-
out support from a majority of the voters of the area pro-
posed for detachment.
The Commission recognizes that the prospective detachment pro-
posal will be complex and controversial. Further, it acknowl-
edges that the matter is of great importance to all the resi-
dents of the borough. Indeed, precedents set through decisions
reached in this matter could impactregionsin-other-areas of
Alaska. For these reasons, the Commission will require com-
Lr

plete analysis of the petition in a written report from the
Department of Community and Regional Affairs. Further, the
Commission will conduct at least two public hearings on the
petition. At least one of these hearings will be held in the
area proposed for detachment and at least one hearing will be
held in the borough outside the area proposed for detachment.
Additionally, you are aware that regulations governing detach-
ment from a borough require that •the petitioners demonstrate
to the satisfaction of the commission that the service require-
ments of the territory will be met following the detachment'
(19 AAC 10.240(a). The Department of Community and Regional
Affairs has correctly advised you that the only conceivable way
this requirement can be met is through the formation of a sep-
arate borough whose boundaries encompass' all of the formerly
detached territory.
Finally, i wish to note that the duties of the Local Boundary
Commission in matters such as this are delegated legislative
functions. Because of the importance of this prospective issue
and because the local election method does not provide the leg-
islature with an opportunity to participate directly in pro-
ceedings relating to this prospective detachment, we commit to
keeping interested legislators fully informed on this matter.
These include Senators and Representatives who serve areas
within the Borough, as well as the Chairs of the House and
Senate Community and Regional Affairs Committees.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please
contact Dan Bockhorst at the Department of Community and
Regional Affairs, 949 Bast 36th Avenue, Anchorage, Alaska 99508

RE: Special Assessment Foreclosures
In response to numerous questions from the Council regarding
procedures and rights of redemption as to realty which is the
subject of the special assessment foreclosure, I have prepared
the following which should answer most asked and anticipated
questions.
Special assessments are liens second only to municipal tax liens, 4
AS 29.46.080, which are collected pursuant to AS 29.45.320-470. Y
Initially, a petition for judgment and a certified copy of the b
foreclosure list is filed with the Superior Court and must
contain the information dictated by AS 29.45.330:
a. List of interested parties in alphabetical order.
b. Last known owner.
C. Property description for assessment roll purposes.
d. Years and amounts of delinquencies.
e. Penalty and interest due.
f. A statement that the list is available for public
inspection at "the Clerk's office" (the statute does
not specify whether it is the Court Clerk's office or
the City Clerk's office).
g. A statement that the list has been presented to
Superior .Court with a. petition for judgment and decree.
The next step is to publish this foreclosure list once a week -for
four (4) consecutive weeks in a newspaper of local circulation.
C
Within ten days of the first publication, as set for in the
above -paragraph, notice is sent by certified mail to the last
known address of the owner. This notice is a copy of the
foreclosure list which advises the owner that the foreclosure
list and the petition for judgment have been filed in the Court.
The notice also must describe the property and list the amount
due.
Thirty (30) days after the last publication of the foreclosure
list, if there have been no sufficient objections, a motion is
filed for judgment and a decree. This proposed judgment.shall
provide a blank to be filled in by the Court showing the date
that the judgment and decree of foreclosure is signed.
Next there is a waiting period during which properties may be
redeemed for one year and ten days from the date written by the
Court --in the judgment decree and foreclosure list. Thus, this
one year and ten day period marks the anniversary of the judgment
and decree by the Court. A redemption period expiration notice
is then published in the newspaper of local circulation pursuant
to AS 49.45.220 which notice should contain:
a. Date of redemption.
b. Date of expiration of the redemption period which date
will be thirty (30) days after the first publication of
redemption period expiration notice.
Co A warning that all properties sold under the judgment
and decree, unless redeemed, shall be deeded to the
municipality immediately upon expiration of the
redemption period and that every right of interest that
a person has in the property will be forever forfeited
to the municipality.
Within five (5) days of the first publication of the notice of
expiration and redemption period, a copy of the notice published
in the paper is mailed, certified return receipt, to each record
owner and all holders of mortgages or other liens of record on
the property.
After the expiration of the redemption period (thirty days after
the first publication of the notice of redemption period
expiration), a request for a Clerk's Deed is filed with the
Court.
tipon receipt of the Clerk's Deed, it is recorded and a
calendaring notice and internal calendaring notice is made that
in two (2) years, these properties are to be sold. The two-year
waiting period prior to sale insures that challenges to the sale
by former record owners are completely barred.
-a-
ill
HiM
Two (2) years from the filing of the Clerk's Deed, an ordinance I
is prepared declaring that the properties are needed for a public
purpose. The properties' legal description should be not out in
the ordinance. Further, the legal description should be
published four (4) times in the paper of local circulation along ; qi
with a notice of the ordinance hearing listing the properties by
legal description with the former owner's name.
The City Clerk then mails, within five (S) days of the first
publication, a copy of the notice of publication of the or
- to the former record owners as they appear on the assessment
roil.
-- --- Subsequent to the publication described above and enactment of
the ordinance, the properties may be sold. However, the record
- owner has the right to repurchase prior to the effective date of
the.ordinance.
All property acquired by a municipality pursuant to a special
assessment foreclosure, should be sold for cash. No terms! 4I

Kenai, AK 99811 _
Dear Keith:
Thank you for your letter of January 14, 1988, asking HEA to
consider taking over the City of Kenai street lights. I am sorry
it has taken so long to answer your letter, but this is a very
sensitive issue with HEA and there are many hurdles to overcome• `
' As we discussed in the meeting this morning, I will be
t recommending to management that HEA take a positive look at
acquiring the City street lights. The following are some I
guidelines that we will be following in this evaluation.
i
1 • Consider a five-year lease from the City on
street lights at $1.00 per year. This would I
allow H,9A and the City adequate time to see
if a rate and maintenance arrangement could be
advantageous to both.
2• Design a rate for energy only. (Plat rate
basis not requiring metering.)
3• All new lights (capital costs) to be borne by City
of Kenai.
„ f
4• Remove existing street light meters.
5. Standardize all new and replacement fixtures and ,
poles into 'two or three categories, i.e., residential I
p I I
or subdivision lights, intersection lights and main `
street artery lights.
8. All repairs and maintenance work will be performed
--- - -- on a time and materials basis and charged to the -City.
- - - -- -
and-considerablQ time
Keith, these are just general guidelines -.
must be spent in working out details of any lease and ultimate
purchase agreement.

guidelines are acceptable, we will proceed with a more in depth

answer as soon as possible.

Subject: Street Lights
Dear Mr. Rainey:
The Mayor and the Council of the City of Kenai have requested
that I contact Homer Electric Association to see if they may be
interested in taking over the responsibility of the street lights
within the City of Kenai. As you know, the City of Kenai owns
many street lights which may be valued at over $500,000. A
transfer of the street lights to HEA may be desirable to HEA for
the following reasons:
1. HEA would increase their capital assets by probably
more than $500,000.
a. With the additional maintenance and operation costs of
the street lights HEA would be in a legitimate position to
ask for a rate increase from APUC to cover the additional
costs*
3. Street light repair work would make excellent "fill-in
work" for off-season and/or off-peak times for electrical
employees.
Below is a chart and graph showing what the City of Kenai has
spent from 1980 to 1986 on street lighting. These cost figures
are for total street lighting costs and include capital, repair
and maintenance, and power consumption costs. Since the City of
Kenai does not have the proper personnel, tools, and equipment to
repair, maintain, or install street lighting, all of our work is
contracted out. HEA with its expertise, men, and equipment could
obviously -maintain the street lights at a lower cost.
-1
I
Please contact me if any more information is needed or if I can
be of any assistance. The City Mayor, City Manager, and I would
be happy to meet with you and the HEA Board of Directors if that
would be helpful. I look forward to your reply:
Sincerely,
., Keith Kornelis

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
(Revised March 1988)
The proposed barge offloading facility planned by Northland
Services, Inc. consists of a float, ramp and road. The facility
is located in Section 4, T.5N., R.11W-9 S.M., approximately 1.5
miles east of the mouth of the Kenai River. Northland Servicest
Inc. has been operating barge services in Kenai and other parts
of Alaska for over 20 years.
The 150' x 6' wide x 2'-deep float will be constructed in
sections. The center portion will be 30' Long and constructed
of 1/2" fabricated steel. The two end portions (each 60' long)
will be constructed of 1/4" fabricated steel. Two deadman will
be required to stabilize the steel. The deadman will be 1' x 2'
rectangular piles constructed of 1/2" steel. The piles will be
driven into the mud and attached to the float with 110' of 1"
wire. A steel plate will be placed over the top of the piles.
Cross braces and 1" wire will also be used to stabilize the
float.
The 1751(t) x 30"-deep ramp will be constructed to allow access
to the float. The romp will be 14' wide except at the toe where
it will widen to 20' and at the float end where it will widen to
221. The ramp will be constructed of fabricated steel and
weight approximately 100 tone. Two deadman will be driven on
each and of the toe of the ramp. The deadman will be
constructed exactly like the two -attached to the float.
Two deadman (exactly like the other four) will be driven to
stabilize the barge. Approxiaately 160, of 3/4" wire will be
connected from the deadman to the barge.

An existing 400' long gravel path will be widened to a maximum
of 50' to accommodate a 24' driving surface. The road includes
a 50 cubic yard (cy) after -the -fact fill and two 24" concrete
culverts in a small draw with tidal influence. They will be
replaced by approximately 600 cy of gravel and a 60' long x 4'
diameter steel culvert. This intermittent drainage has a mean
annual flow of considerably less than 1 ofs. An additional 800
cy of fill will be used to construct the remainder of the 400'
long access road. The 1,400 cy of gravel will come from a
stockpile on the north aide of the road. The wetland area on
the south side of the road will not be impacted.
The romp and float will be utilzied only during ice free
periods. It is projected that one barge will be moored each
week for one tidal stage. The barge will arrive at high water
and depart, at the latest, on the next high tide. The barge may
ground during extreme low water stages. However, all attempts
will be made to utilize the highest tidal stages. Fishing boats
and other vessels may also use the facility. The facility will
be placed as soon as possible after ice breakup and be removed
just prior to ice buildup in the area. Approximately one day
will be needed to place and remove the facility.

JUNEAU TRIP REPORT
ALRSKh CONFERENCE OF MAYORS
April 21 22, 1988
TO;
City Manager
City Council
Economic Development Commission
1.
Alaska Conference of Mayors began meeting with 26 Mayors from
across the State including; Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, and four
from the Kenai Peninsula.
After much discussion, a plan was formulated to request 1986 level
funding of Municipal Assistance and Revenue sharing with
$50,000.00 as the base for all unincorporated villages.
2.
Two separate caucuses were held with Railbelt Mayors. Included in
meetings were; City Manager Garzini, Kenai Borough Representative
Marla Huss, our lobbyist Ashley Reed, and lobbyists representing
Anchorage and Fairbanks.
A plan was hammered out that included using $58 million (25%) of
the Railbelt Energy Fund to fund a special.appropriation that
included $150,000.00 floor for 19 railhelt communities and a per
capita of $134.00 per person (Anchorage $33 million, Kenai $1
million). All agreed except Mayor Fink who wanted more.
Arrangements were made to meet with Joint Session of Senate and
House Finance Committees at 8 A.M. Friday morning. A second
meeting was arranged with a Joint Session of the Railbelt Mayors
and all Railbelt Legislators at I P.M. Friday - both were hold.
I testified at each as to plan and need. Mayor Gilman and Mayor
Fink also testified at the morning session. Mayor Gilman, City
Manager Garzini, and I testified at the 1 P.M. session. Needless
to say, there was much debate pro and con. All I can say for sure
at this point is something will happen as a result. I am sure we
will get some additional funding. How much is anyone's guess.
3.
Visited with Mr. Steve Cole who is the man in charge of the
homeporting program for Governor's Office of Policy. Advised him
of our interest, and earned an advocate for Kenai.
4.
Was introduced to Rosita Worl, Special Assistant to the Governor
and Governor's Assistant to the "Mini Cabinet" dealing with the
homeporting, P-3 Orion project and Air Rescue groups. A very
t"o)
interesting meeting. She advised me of Governor's comments
stating that "if at all possible, Kenai was to get P-31s and Air
Rescue". These comments went to the entire Commission. I Advised
- - .. . f -- --.- - -
V11
her of the plan to establish a task force made up of retired
military personnel. Very well received by her. She will introduce
all to "Mini Cabinet" at my request.
S. Visited Governors office and had the Governor's Proclamation
prepared and signed in support of Youth Week and Student
Government Day, May 4th. (Did not bother the Governor with Air
Guard this time.)
6. Visited with Lt. Governor and discussed matters of mutual interest
(golf, fishing, Kenai, and bicentennial). A great person
(political comment). He would make a great governor.
7. Visited with our Legislative Delegation except Fischer who was in
Kenai. Also visited with several other legislators including Rep.
Ramona Barnes on Municipal Assistance. Was introduced for the
first time to Rep. Virginia Collins who was just appointed as
legislative representative to our S.J.T.C.C. Board. She will be
working with me on "Youth Risk Problems."
S. Wrapped up the trip with overview meeting with Mayor Gilman and
Senator Kerttula.
9. At the airport i had the good fortune to meet a high ranking
Russian official (can't recall the name) who was being escorted by
our Department of Commerce people. We talked about (what else)
Kenai, bicentennial, and Russiau American (Alaskan) relations. He
is here, in part, to discuss the upcoming trip to Provedinia.
10. Finally, in regards to the Fire Training School - it looks real
positive from all sources. Will be funded at the $600,000.00
level if it survives the final budgets.
if by chance it doesn't, i had a long discussion with U of A
President O'Dowd and chancellor O'Rourke and we developed an
alternate plan in the event one is needed.
11. Others visiting Juneau this week:
a. U of A Board of Regents including Bob Williams
b. Mental Health officials including Marge Hayes
C. School Administrators including Dr. Dennis Daggett
d. A.P.E.A. delegates
And several others from the Kenai Peninsula.

INTRODUCTION
Many Alaskans have been surprised by the sevezity of the current
recession, and the speed with which it engulfed the state's economy. The
collapse of the real estate market has been a shock, particularly in
Anchorage. As long as anyone there can remember, investment in
Anchorage real estate has been about as sure a thing as one could hope to
find in this uncertain world. Granted, there have been ups and downs,
but Anchorage real estate always held its value *hen the economy was
doing poorly. When the economy was expanding -- during the Korean
War, again after statehood, after the $900 million North Slope lease sale
in 1969, during the pipeline boom, and in the biggest boom of all in the
early 1980s -- an investor could achieve extraordinary returns. In the
intervals when the economy was stagnant, a real estate investor in
Anchorage felt protected. "You never sold a piece of property for less
than you paid for it," recalls John Rader, Anchorage lawyer and
successful real estate investor whose experience in Anchorage dates to
the early 1950s. "It was almost a religious statement."
The benefits of real estate appreciation weren't just restricted to the
very rich. Anyone wealthy enough to buy a home was able to play the
game. The more a family borrowed to buy a home and the less of their
own cash they used in the purchase, the faster their home equity would
compound. Over the years, ordinary folks and major investors alike
came to believe that some rules of investing were better ignored. In
Alaska, it always paid to be highly leveraged. In Alaska, the more an
Individual borrowed, the more an individual stood to make. And in
Anchorage, one would never need to sell a piece of real estate for less
than one paid for it.
No single event swept away this folklore, but it vanished nonetheless.
In January 1986 Anchorage taxable real estate had an assessed value of
$13.9 billion, up 38 percent from two years earlier. In January 1989
municipal assessors estimated it at $8.3 billion, down 41 percent in two
years. Because a half billion in new construction was added to the tax
rolls over the '86•'88 period, the average property in Anchorage took
an even bigger beating.
This kind of collapse would spell trauma in any community, but
because of Anchorage's demographics, growth pattern, and -the policies
of an activist state government, the distress has touched an especially
large number of households. Anchorage's population is relatively
1

� young, and the town has been growing fast. In any other state most of the
young families that dominate Anchorage's demographics would still be i
renting; a crash in real estate values would then be to their advantage
since it would mean falling rents. In Alaska, though, the state has
actively encouraged home ownership by providing mortgage credit at
subsidized rates. The booming market made k look foolish not to
articipate and in Anchorage about 29,000 households now owe about
p
$2.5 billion on subsidized residential mortgages.
According to Anchorage real estate broker Brooke Marston, these
subsidized mortgages are now virtually all "underwater", i.e., the
principal owed on the mortgage exceeds the market value of the home.
The average family's equity in its home is one of its major repositories
of savings. In Alaska, for most urban households, the value of that asset
has been erased or become a net liability. 7be probability is that many
now have negative net worth.
The purpose of this analysis is to examine these painful events in the
broader context of Alaska's overall economic performance, addressing
five questions: What caused the recession? When will it end?
What sort of recovery can we expect? How will the real estate
crash affect the recovery? And what are the economic policy
options for state government?
THE INEVITABLE RECESSION
Alaska's recession had its roots in the extraordinary boom that began
in early 1980s. When the state governmentspending between 980 81, a er capita
recession became virtually
When the state government inevitable. Using the rate of job
doubled its real per capita creation and job loss (shown in
spending between 1980-1981, Figure 1) as his yardstick, Scott
a recession became virtually Goldsmith, economics professor at
inevitable. the University of Alaska's Institute
of Social and Economic Research
(ISER), measures the peak of the boom in early 1981, when jobs were
being -added at a phenomenal 12 percent annual rate. The ,rate tapered

off slowly after that, but since growth was still occurring the economy
continued to get bigger. The economy stopped growing in September
1985, which is the date ISER's Goldsmith identifies as the beginning of
the recession. 'The first phase of the recession was exceptionally sharp,
but it was also short: the economy hit bottom in April 1986, just 6
months after the recession started. At that point jobs were being lost at
an 8.5 percent annual rate. Thereafter things improved, with
Goldsmith's data from late 1987 showing jobs being lost at a 1 percent
annual rate.
The Alaska recession has not been typical. Regional recessions
usually result from regional specialization, as in the manufacture of
airplanes or the production of corn, combined with declining
worldwide demand for the specialized product or service. The Seattle
area specialized in large commercial jet transport aircraft. When
demand for that product ebbed in the 1960s, Seattle lost 70,000 jobs in
the space of a year. In the mid-1980s declining agricultural prices
triggered a regional recession encompassing much of the Midwest. Here
is the way that Scott Goldsmith put it:
It is critically important to recognize that we brought this recession on
ourselves, and that it was not primarily the result of weakness in the markets for
the goods and services which Alaska sells to the rest of the world. This fact
distinguishes our recession from those that have occurred in other regional
economies.
The dramatic growth in state spending in the first years of this decade
guaranteed that there would be an explosion of demand, and that private
capital and labor would mobilize to meet that demand. Since much of
this demand was from new public and private investment, demand was
especially strong in the area of investment goods -- especially
constntction services and housing. Just to keep up with the growth in
population and business required a Herculean effort. Few communities
ever find themselves needing to add housing at a rate that would double
the number of units in seven years. Since much of the growth was itself
the result of new investment, there was a feedback loop. Economists call
it an investment accelerator -- the expansion called forth investment
which in turn accelerated the expansion. Unfortunately, the process also
works in reverse. When growth stopped (notice we didn't say "
reversed'), the Herculean effort would no longer be needed. And once a
downturn was started, the feedback loop would cause it to feed on itself,
to accelerate.

A]
... _.M
The only thing that could have prevented an eventual demand
collapse was for state spending to keep growing. This would have
required state revenue to keep growing. Some thought this a likely
future, but it wasn't. When state spending stopped going up, the balloon
would be punctured and the Alaska economy would deflate. The only
questions remaining were when the recession would occur and how
severe it would be.
This logic leads to an important conclusion. The oil price collapse
was not an important cause of the recession. The oil price slide started
in December 1985, three months after
the recession began and two years after The oil price collapse
construction industry employment began was not an important
to decline. Real (inflation -adjusted) state cause of the recession.
spending stayed constant at $6,800 per
capita in FY 1983 and 1984, then increased to $7,400 in FY 1985. The
constriction recession began in December 1984 (mid-FY 1985),
notwithstanding the spending increase. With the beginning of FY 1986
spending fell to $5,400 per capita.
The FY 86 spending cut hurried along the recession (which started -
three months later) and made it more intense, but didn't cause it. The
cause was that in 1981 the state of Alaska increased its spending at
growth rates it could not reasonably hope to sustain, When state spending stopped
and adopted policies that encouraged private invest- growing, a recession resulted
ment in housing, where the needs were only a tempo-
rary response to the inflated spending. When state .fi'falling demand for
spending stopped growing, a recession resulted from invvee stment goods.
falling demand for investment goods. The collapse had its most severe
consequences in construction and housing, precisely those areas where
the state had the most success in its efforts to stimulate the economy.
The recession did not take Alaska's economists by surprise. Ten
years ago, in March 1978, economists David Reaume and Goldsmith
independently analyzed the effects of state spending growth expected
with the beginning of Prudhoe oil production. Their analyses were
contained in separate papers delivered to the annual meeting of the
Western Economic Association. Both authors used the concept of
"sustainable" -spending (Reaume called it "sustainable revenue"). Both
papers concluded that spending growth above the sustainable level __

spends about $1.700 per capita.
would culminate in a self-inflicted regional recession.
Over the following decade this central conclusion was refined and
reiterated by virtually every Alaska economist who wrote or spoke on
the subject. Sometimes the conclusions were cloaked in mathematics or
couched in eco-speak, but the warning was clear from the beginning.
Here is how Dr. Reaume, phrased it ten years ago:
[I]ndependence from non-renewable resource revenue can be achieved ...if real
state spending grows by no more than 2.5 percent per year. „and if short term
budget surpluses are carefully invested. A pl conclusion is that ...the state
faces a financial crisis by 1990 if it does not brunediately restrict spending.
Despite the warnings, between fiscal 1979 and 1985, real (inflation -
adjusted) state spending rose at a-: ompounded annual rate of 13.9
percent 3
RECOVERY
If the economists are right, the end of Alaska's recession is imminent
and doesn't depend on outside events like a rise in the price of zinc or
corn or a change in the demand for Boeing airplanes. Alaska's recession
will end when the decline in state spending ends and the excess capacity
in areas like construction has, in the words of ISER director Lee
Gorsuch, "been fully wrung out." Since most economists believe that
both have already happened or are due soon, most also believe the job
losses will end soon as well.
Precisely when will the recession end? Some economists believe it
may already be over. A simple-minded extrapolation of Goldsmith's
data (Figure 1) would suggest that employment actually started to grow
between December and January. Chuck Caldwell, the state's chief labor
economist, thinks this is possible: "I'm not going to make any
predictions now, but when (the final seasonally adjusted numbers are in]
we may well see that the economy started growing again around the first
of the year."4 A Dittman Research Corporation survey of Railbelt

predicts that the recession will end in the second half of 1988, a view
shared by Reaume.
The pace of the recovery thereafter will be affected by possible
structural changes in the Alaska economy, by changes in state spending,
and by demand for Alaska's exports -- energy, fisheries products, wood
products, visitor services, and defense services. The outlook for the
state's export industries is generally favorable. Virtually all
international economic experts foresee a protracted period -- perhaps 15
years -- during which foreigners will find U.S. dollars cheaper than at
:any time in recent history. For Alaska the change will mean growth.
Consider tourism. The weakening dollar has reduced the cost in
Japanese yen of an Alaska vacation, making it more affordable to the
Japanese tourist. Moreover, Americans tourists will also be more likely
to come to Alaska since the dollar cost of visiting foreign destinations,
Alaska's competitors for tourist spending, will have increased. The
same altered incentive structure will increase demand for Alaska
minerals, wood and fisheries products.
In fishing, development of an on -shore bottomfish processing
industry, discussed for years, has finally shown up this winter as real
growth in employment. With one mine preparing for production and
others well along in development, it appears that metal mining has
finally started to grow. Federal spending is under pressure everywhere,
but new military deployments to Alaska and increased federal park and
wilderness management responsibilities in the state may mean an
increasing overall federal presence in the economy. Petroleum
employment is growing now, reflecting the extraordinary profits
available from further investments in already producing fields. The oil
companies and state forecasters expect long-term increases in the real
price of Alaska oil, but even if this doesn't materialize, labor required to
produce existing fields will increase due to technical factors common to
all declining fields. The consensus among Alaska economists is that
demand for the goods and services Alaska produces will grow, and that
this growth will add new jobs to the Alaska economy at a rate of 1
percent or so annually, starting in 1988 or 1989 at the latest.

Alaska s recession isn t likely to spawn an economic miracle, but t is

and inflated prices. Whatever one may feel about these changes -- and '

cost two years ago was $200 per
month per person, the roughly 40
percent drop in rents has added an average $960 to the annual spendable
incomes of these 75,000 people. This "renter's dividend' has thus
increased Anchorage's spendable income by about $72 million, and has
had about the same economic impact as would result from hiring 1,600
new state employees in Anchorage?
The recession hasn't been all bad for businesses either. Anchorage
has about 7.8 million square feet of net rentable office space, and 5A
million square feet of retail space. Assuming that 70 percent percent of
that space is renter occupied and that monthly costs have declined by
$0.75 per square foot from their levels three years ago, the business

equivalent of another 1,800 additional jobs in the Anchorage economy.

but not much. Many Anchorage landlords don't live in Anchorage, and
in any event there are many more renters than landlords.

wellhead revenue as low as $2.70 per barrel in the Prudhoe Bay field
and $5.45 per barrel at Kuparuk. Alaska petroleum construction
contractors are starting to bid fabrication work away from competitors
in Oregon and South Korea. Space rental and labor are the biggest cost
items in many service and support sector businesses, so declines in these
costs are particularly important to holding onto the recent growth in
these sectors. Alaska retailers have also been helped by declining
transportation charges. According to Greg Carr, of Cads Quality
Centers, these factors together contributed to narrowing the differential
between grocery costs in Alaska and Seattle, a differential which he
believes is now only about 3 percent. This has also produced a
"dividend" for all residents.
The full ramifications of these changes cannot be predicted, but they
suggest structural resilience and adaptability in the Alaska economy.
These are good attributes for any economy, and especially valuable
traits in a period of economic uncertainty.
THE REAL ESTATE CRASH
The economists haven't completely ignored the $8 billion or so in
Alaska real estate values lost over the past two years 6 ISER,

estate crash will tend to stimulate eco-
nomic growth in Alaska.
The reason is jobs. A bankrupt real estate investor has minimal
impact on employment, but a bankrupt hardware store may signify a
real loss in jobs. The real estate crash makes it hard for real estate
investors, but it makes it easier on the hardware store by lowering its
costs. This means the store is more competitive, which means more
business and more jobs, so the real estate crash means that employment
is likely to grow. What if the investor also owns the hardware store? No

problem -- the investor sells the business to cover his losses. The new
owner pays more attention to the business, and with lower occupancy
costs becomes more competitive. Because it means more jobs, the real
estate crash is good for the Alaska economy, however difficult it may be
for individuals.
Given this view, economists tend to be skeptical of schemes to rescue
the economy by spending public money on real estate- Indeed, they
express considerable skepticism about any economic justification for
trying to prop up the real estate market. Part of this skepticism arises
from growing doubts concerning state government's institutional
suitability for managing economic change in general. "It seems very
clear to me now that politics and the kind of hard objective decision -
making needed ... will never be reconciled," writes Dr. Reaume,
formerly chief economist in the state Department of Commerce and
Economic Development and formerly a leading advocate of aggressive
government action to achieve development. Professor Hayden Greea's
skepticism is more concrete: "Some of the same people who
recommended we spend ourselves into this nightmare are now telling us
that they can get us out by using the same concoction that made us sick as
medicine to heal us...:'
L.�
THE DISSENTERS
One expert who disagrees with this generally upbeat view of the
economy is Scott Hawkins, formerly chief economist with Alaska
Pacific Bank and now executive director of the Anchorage Economic
Development Corporation. He believes that the real estate collapse and
repercussions in the banking sector have "given Alaska a bad name"
among outside banks that had been providing loans for Alaska
development or were thinking of coming in. "It will be ten years before
some of those [institutions] consider coming back to Alaska," Hawkins
predicts. He argues that the resulting lack of capital is likely to cause
retarded development.
Some economists are concerned that mergers will increase the share
of the state's banking business controlled by the two or three largest
institutions, possibly causing reduced competition in credit markets.
Nevertheless;-ec-onomistsapart -from. Hawkins discount "capital
shortage" as a significant drag on development. Less money is flowing
to the state now than two years ago, just as Hawkins suggests, and outside
banks that thought they saw opportunities here, now probably see the
10

J
issue differently. But it is important not to confuse cause and effect.
Less money is being invested in Alaska because there are fewer
opportunities for profitable investment, not the other way around. It is
a situation that is not likely to change for several years, at least as far as
the kind of lending that outside banks did during the boom. Their loans
went largely to build shopping malls, offices, and homes, all of which
are now in oversupply in urban Alaska
Meanwhile, deposits in Alaska banks have Alaska bankers are

much more significantly. The result is that
Alaska bankers are scrambling to find
creditworthy loan customers. "If someone with a serious business
proposition comes through my door, I can assure you that person will
have no difficulty in getting what he needs," said one Anchorage banker.
Juneau economist and business consultant Eric McDowell agrees. "If I
had a moneymaking idea that required capital, I could get it in an
instant. The problem is that there aren't that many opportunities out
there right now."
Hayden Green, professor of real estate at the University of Alaska at
Anchorage, is the other notable dissenter from the consensus view,
though not on the capital shortage issue. Green argues that the collapse
in property values will cause Alaskans to feel less wealthy, and this will
cause them to reduce their consumption of goods and services, including
goods and services provided by other Alaskans. Declining demand will
mean more layoffs, thus propagating and prolonging the recession.
Economists call this is a "wealth effect." It will have some impact,
but economists don't generally expect it to be significant. Goldsmith
notes that the stock market crash wiped out $1 trillion in wealth
overnight and has had little apparent effect on consumption. In
interviews with Anchorage retailers, Seattle consultant Dr. Bill Mundy
found that stores...that sell non -discretionary items (such as groceries)
indicate that sales [in the first half of 19871 are just about the same as a
year ago or off some, but not dramatically as one might expect." Mundy
also notes that employment in stores selling general merchandise didn't

employment actually increased. According to Professor Gee Huskey, f

respondwith reduced consumption, items foregone will be heavily ( ( -

W
weighted toward items with low "Alaskan" content such as Hawaiian
vacations and Cadillacs. "The effect will be very marginal."
What about the arguments that a state funded entity, a so-called
vulture fund, is needed to buy up distressed properties and keep them
off the market? The "Phoenix Fund" proposed by Hawkins would be
designed to prevent...
an unnecessary acceleration of small business bankruptcies [and) the additional
failure of Alaska financial institutions, which would set off another cycle of
falling real estate values, rising foreclosures, business bankruptcies, job losses,
population outflow, etc.
The fund would be run by Hawkins' Anchorage Economic Development
Corporation.
fundamental to this line of thinking is the assumption that Alaska
economic development will be hurt by falling property values.
Economists, as noted earlier, simply don't buy this idea. They think
falling property values will produce a net increase in jobs. "The real
estate collapse is tough on those who invested in property," says
McDowell, but for the economy at large it is not a cause for concern.
According to Reaume, "the current real estate situation may have major
positive ramifications on the economy. A"buy out; on the other hand,
could induce mistakes in the future. It's a bad idea." Department of
Revenue economist Al Zangri is specific:
[a] state program to reduce excess capacity in commercial real estate...will
drive business, employment, aggregate demand, and aggregate income lower
than they would be in the absence of such a program. Furthermore, this will
create an additional source of uncertainty in the economy as other interest 4roups
exert pressure on the system to fashion their own 'bail out' program. This will
further prolong the adjustment period and delay the process of economic
recovery.
Connie Yoshimura, an Anchorage real estate broker, points out a
shakey technical assumption underlying the vulture/Phoenix fund idea -
- that purchasing distressed properties will stabilize the market for
holders of other properties. The Anchorage market has seen a "distinct
flight to quality." She argues that the demand for mid- and high -quality
property is largely independent of the demand for the low -quality
properties that constitute virtually all the distressed -assets. According to
Yoshimura, removing those assets by demolition might make sense as an
urban renewal strategy, but will have no effect on prices or demand for
anything except the very lowest quality properties, most of which are

already in foreclosure. Professor Green expresses similar concerns.
LOSS OF CONFIDENCE
Despite economists' belief that the direct economic effects of the real
estate crash will be positive, the regional recession in Alaska is at least
partly beyond the range of economic experience. It is a reason for
caution. An event this encompassing could conceivably have non-
economic effects that could feed back into the economic system in
unanticipated ways.
Anchorage real estate broker Chris Stephens has suggested that the
most severe effect of the market crash could be the loss of
entrepreneurial talent. Most economists scoff at this idea. "Heck,"
ISER's Lee Huskey remarks, "lower costs are going to make it more
likely entrepreneurs will succeed."
Arlon Tussing, a Seattle economist and frequent visitor, thinks the
odds are good that the loss of confidence won't last very long or extend
very deep into the fabric of Alaska society. So far, the evidence seems to
favor this view. Anchorage's municipal demographer Michael
Breedlove estimates that 59 percent of the households lost in Anchorage
since 1985 have been male headed, non -family households, a category
that accounts for only 18 percent of total households. Moreover, 80
percent of the population loss has been in the 20-30 age group, and two-
thirds of the loss is accounted for by males. These numbers dolt suggest
a broad -based exodus.
But what about the attitudes and intentions of those who remain?
Population movements tend to lag changes in the economy, so a collapse
of confidence could have already happened, with the resulting wave of
out -migration only now beginning. As far as attitudes are concerned,
the answers given by Dittman's Railbelt respondents don't reflect any
sense of crisis: 44 percent say the economy will get better over the next
two years, compared with 16 percent who see things getting worse.
---What about the..18 percent of Dittman's respondents who reported
they were "very likely" or "quite likely" to leave Alaska within two
years? For some observers the -number was "shocking." -Greg Williams,
the state's chief demographer, doesn't see it that way. "Every year, in
13
W
C.
i

t
good times and bad, about 15 percent of the people in Alaska leave. The
[poll] results are about what I'd have expected." According to Dr.
Williams, the number of people cominS. to Alaska is much more variable
than the number leaving, and much more sensitive to economic
conditions. Unfortunately, surveys of people already in Alaska, whether
the results are "shocking" or "expected," tell nothing about the
intentions of those not yet here. The guessing among experts like
Breedlove and Williams is that population isn't in for any collapse in
Anchorage, and certainly not in the balance of the state.
ALASKA'S POLICY OPTIONS
Many of the experts who are saying there is no economic justification
for using public money to prop up the real estate market are also owners
of homes and other real estate. A few of them suggest that there may be
some moral justification for state government involvement. "After
all,' one asked rhetorically, "doesn't
...even those who see a moral everyone agree that the state
basis for state intervention sense government was responsible for getting
that whatever state government's us into this?" True enough, but even
responsibility, indemnification of those who see a moral basis for state
those who have taken losses would intervention sense that whatever state
be beyond its means. government's responsibility,
indemnification of those who have taken
losses would be beyond its means. And
proposals to assist only a segment of the market, say the commercial real
estate market, are hard to take seriously when so many others have also
been hurt. Indemnifying all Alaskans hurt by the real estate collapse
would simply cost more than the state could afford.
Besides, excess capacity in investment goods and services (like
construction) has now been dissipated, and it seems likely that the state
will arrest the decline in public spending. If this happens, the recovery
will occur regardless of what else the state does or does not do.
None of the foregoing means that prompt, informed government
action would not save a lot of pain. Unfortunately, what the government
should do, apart from not trying.to corner the real estate market, is not
nearly so clear. It would make sense to allow people to carry their
negative -equity- along with them -to a different house. Whether_ the
public and private bureaucracies involved are able to handle these
transactions remains to be seen. It doesn't make sense to have a

development throughout Alaska, and that these disparities will become,
an even greater burden in the future. Economic solutions that might
work seem unacceptable on other grounds, and solutions acceptable on
other grounds clearly don't work economically. It is a tough issue that
won't be ignored.

BORROWED TIME
With management -- and a little luck -- the real estate crash will do no i
lasting damage to Alaska's economy. Years hence Alaskans may look I
back at the recession and post -recession period as a time of renewal and
opportunity. If so, it will probably be because Alaskans learned the
lessons that this self-inflicted recession had to teach.
On this point, however, the returns are still to be counted. Alaska
did cut its spending in FY 1985-88, but not enough to erase the
fundamental imbalance that Drs. Goldsmith and Reaume first described
ten years ago. In a speech early this year Goldsmith described the
imbalance as a problem
which always takes a back seat to concerns which are more immediate or
pressing, but it is the most pervasive issue we will face in the next decade. In
the long run the economy is still living on borrowed time. We
continue to artificially stimulate the economy by selling off the assets of the state -
- our petroleum wealth. How we adjust to a sustainable level of government will
affect us all as surely as this recession. [emphasis added]
1
i Unless Alaska controls its public spending, the state will be buying a
ticket to a rerun of its present recession. Showtime will be within the
decade, and probably sooner.
Another old imbalance also remains. Alaska has developed a mature
economy, but parts of rural Alaska have increasingly been left behind.
Disparities in -income, employment, educational _success, health, and a
host of other measures all are widening. Some economists say that this is

transitory) and to resist reductions in state service levels when revenues begin to
decline. If this behavior were to occur [in the future] it could be unfortunate both
for the states fiscal position and the state economy in general.... A decline in the
general fund balance [*rom declining oil revenue] would necessitate a reduction in
the level of government services. This would significantly impact the private
economy both because of the large size of the government sector and because the
decline would come only shortly after a significant "boom" in state government
spending.
Economists saw the coming recession and its dynamics quite clearly, but
predictions of its timing were not so successful. See Gregg Erickson's June 1982
essay, "Managing the Collapse of Alaska's Economy►; : Bob Richards' article,
"Wanton Spending and Our Diminishing Revenues,' in the May 8,1983 issue of the
Anchorage Times; and Hayden Green's March 20,1983 article, " Alaskans Should
Brace for Resumption of Boom Bust Cycle;' in the Anchorage Daily News. The
positive effects of the current recession were foreseen in "After the Boom: An

One day a great goose, named ARCSAP, landed in the bleak
northern edge of the territory. ARCSAP scratched around, built a
huge nest, and began to lay golden eggs and give them to people.
ARCSAP sustained herself on a special food called WOP, which
was manufactured principally by companies In a land far away on
the other side of the world.
The people gave the golden eggs to the Ruling Body and told
It to use the gold to make their life better. The Ruling Body had
never seen so much wealth, and it was unsure about what to do.
It hired some advisors to tell it what to do with the gold. The
advisors hired more advisors to advise It, and the original advisors
became chief advisors. The new advisors decided there was so
much gold to spend that they too needed advisors, so they became
deputy -chief advisors and hired more advisors. The new advisors
decided that they needed some studies done so they hired some
outside consultants to study how to spend the gold. When the bill
for the chief advisors and the deputy -chief advisors, the advisors
and the outside consultants was given to the Ruling Body, they
found out they had spent all the gold.
The Ruling Body was concerned because the gold was gone,
and they had lots of studies on how to spend the gold to help the
people, but now had no gold. Then, a Crafty Member of the Ruling
Body said 01 know how to get ARCSAP to give us more gold. If
we put a noose around ARCSAP's neck and squeeze her real
tight, she will have to lay more golden eggs." "But won't that kill
ARCSAP; asked another member of the Ruling Body in one of
its closed meetings. "No," said the Crafty Mr Aber, "ARCSAP can
Bland the tight noose for 10 years, after " . re, when she starts
togetoidandweaiiwemtceepherativebythtemagicELFformulo." -
So the Ruling Body ordered the noose tightened around
ARCSAP% ne* and she indeed did begin to lay more -golden
eggs. But the strain of the tight noose and the extra golden eggs
made ARCSAP very weak, and she might have died, but the mak-
ers of the WOP food in the land on the other aide of the world
greatly Increased the strength of the food. ARCSAP became strong
In spite of the tight noose. The new WOP food kept increasing in
strength.
Page 2 / RESOURCE REVIEW / April 1986
As time passed, ARCSAP gave birth to smaller geese who also
laid golden eggs. Kupple laid medium -size golden eggs and Uzzle
laid small golden eggs; but both newborn geese were sickly and
In ill health in spite of the strong WOP food. The Crafty Member
of the Ruling Body knew what to do. He ordered that Kupple and
Uzzle be given the magic ELF forumula right away. The magic _
ELF formula worked amazingly well for Kupple and Uzzle, and
they became healthy. Of course, the new strength WOP food also
helped Kupple and Lizzie.
With all the large golden eggs from ARCSAP, the medium-sized
ones from Kupple and the small ones from Uzzle, the Ruling Body
had enough gold to pay the chief advisors, the deputy -chief ad-
visors, the advisors, and outside consultants and still do some
things to make life better for the people. The Ruling Body gave
gold to the people to invest in business, gold to build large buildings,
gold to pay their power bills and all sorts of things. Of course, with
all the golden eggs, the Ruling Body had to hire more chief advisors,
deputy -chief advisors, advisors and outside consultants. In fact,
the Ruling Body was able to hire so many people to advise it, the
people began to neglect their mining, fishing and timber busines•
ses. With so much gold for the many jobs of chief advisors, deputy
chief advisors, advisors and outside consultants, the Ruling Body
had no reason to worry about the lean times.
At the end of about nine years, the makers of the WOP food in
the far away land decreed a massive reduction In the strength of
the food. When they decreased the strength of the food, ARCSAP,
Kupple and Uzzle, became very III, and the amount of golden eggs
(large, medium and small) was greatly reduced. The Ruling Body
faced a very serious problem because it didn't have enough gold
to pay all the chief advisors, the deputy -chief advisors, the advisors
and the outside consultants. When the Ruling Body asked the
advisors and consultants what to do, the advisors said "Make
ARCSAP, Kuppie and Lizzie produce more goldl Then you can
pay us and do all the wonderful projects we have advised you to
do for the good of the people." The Crafty Member of the Ruling
Body saki "If we don't give the me& ELF formula -to ARCSAP;
she'll produce more golden eggs, and we can lake the magic ELF
formula away from Kupple and Uzzle, and they will also lay more ;
eggs." At that time, the keeper of the geese burst into the closed
meeting of the Ruling Body and said "the decrease in the strength
of the WOP food manufactured In the far away land has made
ARCSAP, Kupple and Uzzie very weak. If we don't give them the
magic ELF formula, I think they will dial"

Showdown approaching,
w "full court press" needed
to open ANWR leasing
The long and hard-fought battle to open
the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil
and gas development may reach a climax
In June, and the outcome may depend
largely on the pressure government offi-
cials and business leaders apply on their
associates in the Lower 48 to convince
Congress to act favorably toward Alaska
development.
While pro -development forces are en-
couraged by recent trends In the House,
congressional sources wam that a possi-
ble showdown on the House floor in June
Is likely to end In a very close vote. As a
result, the next several weeks are critical
with organizations supporting develop-
ment scurrying to encourage business
associates and members outside Alaska
to change the minds of congressmen op-
posed to development.
A new bill allowing oil and gas explora-
tion and development leasing in the 1.5
million -acre Coastal Plain of the refuge
will be introduced In the House later this
_ month.
The compromise bill, the fifth piece of
House legislation dealing with the refuge,
would split the royalty revenue evenly be-
veen the state and federal government
.,nd designate the National Petroleum Re-
serve west of Prudhoe Bay a wildlife re-
fuge.
Under the 60.50 split, half would go to
the slate treasury, 10 percent to the fed•
eral treasury and 40 percent to federal
environmental programs that may other-
wise go unfunded given current budget
constraints. The legislation would also
provide funding for energy conservation
and alternative energy research.
Although the bill designates the pet-
roleum reserve a wildlife refuge, pro-
visions would allow for oil and gas explo-
ration.
The new House bill, which provides for
strict environmental standards protecting
the wildlife, air and water quality, is cur-
rently under mark-up In Congressman
Gerry Studd's Subcommittee on
Fisheries, Wildlife Conservation and the
Environment. Speaker of the House Jim
Wright has indicated he wants the legisla-
tion on the floor no later than June.
The brighter prospects of moving the
',hill Irom subcommittee to the full House
-Merchant Marine and Fisheries Commit-
tee, and eventually to the House floor is
an encouraging development for Alaska,
where some 80 percent of the population
supports development in the refuge. Ear-
L
Iler it appeared the chances for moving
an ANWR development bill through the
Democratic -controlled House were very
slim. However, the new legislation offers
a strong compromise many Congressman
seem willing to support.
Another factor influencing possible
House action on ANWR this spring Is that
both House and Senate leaders have
gained a much better understanding of the
issue and are beginning to realize that de-
velopment does not necessarily harm
wildlife nor does it need to occupy but a
tiny fraction of the 19 million -acre refuge.
In fact, reports have shown exploratory
drilling would aftect less than 1 percent of
the refuge.
The unwillingness of environmental
forces to budge from their position of total
Wilderness designation for the Coastal
Plain hasn't helped their case In
Washington where compromise Is the
name of the game. Most of the refuge is
already off-limits to development and
nearly half of it has already been desig-
nated Wilderness, Including some
450.000 acres of Coastal Plain lands Im-
mediately adjacent to the area proposed
for oil and gas leasing.
Meanwhile, the Senate Energy Com-
mittee has reported a bill to open ANWR
to development. An amendment to Com-
mittee Chairman Sennett Johnston's de-
velopment bill, offered by Senator James
McClure, requires a 16-month study of
future energy needs and orders the Secre-
tary of the Interior to develop leasing plans
that can be acted upon 21 months after
Congress passes the ANWR bill. -
The Senate bill would also split the roy-
alty income evenly between Alaska and
the federal government. The federal gov-
ernment would put 25 percent of its in-
come in the Land and Water Conservation
Fund, 5 percent in the Migratory Bird Con-
servation Fund and 20 percent in the U.S.
Treasury.
The Committee's bill will likely be used
with a House bill In reaching acompromise
on ANWR in a House/Senate Conference
Committee.
RDC urges its members and friends to
send letters and post cards to members
of the House Merchant Marine and
Fisheries Committee, the House Com-
mittee on Interior and insular Affairs
and the Senate Committee on Energy
and Natural Resources. Ask them to
support the opening of ANWR to respon-
sible oil and gas development.

Wade, president of Arco Alaska, Inc.
Wade, responding to the report by
several environmental groups, pointed
to Industry's successful track record and
consistently Improving technology over
the past decade. 'That Is proof that oil
exploration and production can be done
In an environmentally compatible way

the report "selectively ignores extensive

Wade noted that Industry continues
to Improve he environmental record.
Second-and-ihird generation fields on
the North Slope have been built with the
benefit ofthe Prudhoe Bay experience.
Responding to charges of wide-
spread oil spills on the North Slope, Arco
said since oil wells and production
facilities are built on gravel pads, most
spills never reach the underlying tundra.
From 1981 to 1986, more than 90
percent of the spills resulting from oil
production occurred on gravel pads.
The 10 percent which spilled onto the
tundra was completely cleaned up with

The company also noted that less
than one percent of the surface acreage

and gravel sites. Even though some
wildlife habitat has been lost, wildlife
populations on the North Slope continue
to grow.

Conference leaves
fresh resolves

Editor's Note: The Proceedings of the "What Alaska Can Do For
America" conference will soon be available at a cost of S20 per

mary, the text o each speaker's presentation and a list of all

The stirring insights, the evocative phrases, the learned disser-
tations of the dozen speakers, and the gathering of 400 Alaskans,
are now shining memories. The Resource Development Council's
Eighth Annual Conference, "What Alaska Can Do For America,"
was held in Anchorage February 26.27.1 personally had thought
the 491h State could do is great deal, but in retrospect, my en-
thusiasm for Alaska's possible contributions to the USA outran that
of some of those who spoke.
It Is understandable that this should be so; it is not dismaying.
After all, we invited learned and important people from distant
places, not only to hear from them, but so that they could gain
better understanding of us — of Alaska, her abilities and pos-
sibilities. By being with us and of us for two intensive days, the
out-f-town experts caught the contagion of the Alaskan resource
development enthusiasm. The attendees learned, and so did the
speakers, And all those present learned from each other, fortified
each other, took fresh resolves for economic growth and develop-
ment in the reinforcing presence of each other.
Those were two very good days. They were capped off, highligh-
ted, and summed up in the closing session by Dr. William Ransom
Wood, President Emeritus of the University of Alaska, and tireless.
Intrepid promoter of the economic well-being of Fairbanks, and
really of all Alaska. Bill Wood is the father of the modern University
of Alaska.
In reflecting on Robert Horton's keynote address, Dr. Wood
expressed the shocked reaction of most of us to the Chairman of
SP America's observation that Alaska has very little the world
wants, and very little that Is "utterly indispensable UNLESS Alaska
can find ways to produce the things the world wants at a price
competitive with non -Alaska producers."

Robert 8. Horton, outgoing Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
of SP America, stressed that one of Alaska's greatest assets and
potential contributions to America Is Its bright minds.
During the past four decades. Alaska has fallen Into and stayed
In the category of "high -cost producer! Our remoteness from sup-
ply, our enormous land mass so thinly populated, our sparse to
non-existent infrastructure throughout the length and breadth of
the land, our arctic and sub -arctic climates, high cost of living and
resultant high labor costs, our lack of cohesiveness In the common
purpose of producing a sound, enduring, rewarding economic
structure fulfilling all legitimate human desires — except warm,
balmy, year-round sunshine — have all contributed to our undesir
able, "high -cost" reality. Further, both Dr. Wood and Chairman
Horton reflected that we have not fully developed, utilized, or re-
tained the young people or our state who could effectively work
at reducing our "high -cost" problem through technology and better
statecraft. Robert Horton reminded us that "bright minds are the
greatest competitive advantage in the world"
Our Resource Development Council Education Foundation was
formed to educate Alaskans and Americans In general about the
resources and advantages of Alaska. Dr. Wood and Governor
Cowper have proposed legislation in the Alaska House of Repre-
sentatives, H.B. 390 and 391, which would contribute to the proof
of Alaska's bright minds, helping us achieve the competitive advan.
tage of young, energetic, eager and intelligent Alaskans. On a long
range basis, this better education must be one of our primary goals,
What about the rest of the effort? How can we "produce the
things the world wants at a price competitive with non -Alaska pro-
ducers?" The Canadian provinces seem to offer examples of what
to do. For example, British Columbia has a well developed road
system, a vast hydroelectric generation and grid system, coal mines
producing vast tonnages for export and local consumption, a timber
industry which is the economic backbone of the three million people
who make their home there, a sizeable output of placer gold, hard -
rock gold, and other hardrock minerals. In a word, British Columbia
has an enviable resource development economy. The province
has been generous in providing infrastructure and other induce-
ments to industry. The Canadian federal government has also
encouraged its citizens in developing the country. Over the years.

Tongass tempering
There was no surprise whatever as the
House Interior Committee votea to repeal
a 1980 federal low regulating timber her -
vesting In the Tongass National Forest in
Southeastern Alaska.
The legislation Is a major goal of the
environmental lobbies. They have made it
a national crusade - and, naturally. used
It as a marvelous fund-raising tool for their
own organizations. The Tongass campaign
Is a counterpart to their same efforts and
some fund-raising goals to prevent any oil
and gas exploration on the coastal plain of
the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in north-
eastern Alaska.
Fortunately, the battle isn't over - on
either issue, as a matter of fact.
But the vote In the house committee
points out clearly the difficulty Alaska faces
In trying to carve its own destiny,
Many congressmen, sad to say, regard
Alaska as less than a state than as a na-
tional preserve and zoo.
Alaska, to some, Is a perfect opportunity
to compile a wonderful environmental vot-
ing record - without endangering
economic development and jobs In his or
her home district. It matters not to them
that their votes might close down economic
opportunities in Alaska, so long as they
don't have to cast votes to do the same
back home.
Couple that attitude with the disturbing
knowledge that all too many congressmen
are ill-informed and uninformed about
Alaska, and a feeling of almost overwhelm-
Ing frustration results,
In the case of the Tongass, all of con-
gress has been Inundated with emotional
pleadings that paint totally erroneous pic-
tures of what logging in Southeastern
Alaska is all about. And many have been
persuaded by half troths and deliberate
misstatements.
One of the more disturbing things about
the whole affair Is that the forestry activities
now under attack are the very same that
were agreed to by the environmentalists at
the time the law was passed - under a
compromise that created huge wilderness
expenses covering SA million acres of the
area.
One congressman called the Tongass
"almost a scandalous operation"
There's something scandalous afoot
here, all right. But it's not the existing law
or the harvesting operations.
Republican Rep. Don Young of Alaska
summed It up by saying the House commit-
tee plan 'basically shuts down the mills."
That represents 6,000 jobs, says Mr.
Young, "a commitment made to the state
of Alaska"
Unfortunately, Alaskans know all too
well about the lack of permanency in con-
gresslonal commitments to Alaska.
What is happening on the regulation of
the Tongass is but another sickening exam
-
pte of how environmental lobbies manipu-
late members of Congress, and in the pro-
cess feed their own treasuries with mail
order appeals for money from gullible but
well-meaning members of the public who
know little or nothing of the real Issues in
Alaska.

RDC opposes
primitive land us
proposal
The Resource Development
Council strongly opposes the Alaska
Center for the Environment's pro-
posal to create a new primitive land
use classification for state land.
"Clearly the AlaskaConstitution Is
at Odds with this proposal," said
Becky Gay, the Council's executive
director. Gay said the multiple -use,
sustained -yield mandate of the Con-
stitution places any such restrictive
administrative action in grave
jeopardy to legal challenge.
Alaska has some of the strongest
environmental protection statutes
and regulations of any state. RDC
maintains the state does not need a
primitive classification to ensure the
availability of options and oppor-
tunities for future generations. Exist-
ing laws are specifically designed for
that purpose.
RDC firmly believes Alaska's fu-
ture Is directly linked to the economl
activity generated from state land
More than any other resource in Its'
control, state lands give Alaska the
best opportunity to Influence the
quality of life of all residents. --
Fable has two endings ...
(contfrwed from page 2)
The Ruling Body now had to make a decision, and at this point,
our story has two different endings.
ONE:
The Ruling Body took the advice of the Crafty Member and its
advisors and didn't give the magic ELF formula to ARCSAP or the
other geese. ARCSAP continued to produce golden eggs at the
same rate; but without the formula, she became weaker and
weaker. Kuppie and Lizzle began to produce more golden eggs
when they were taken off the magic ELF formula. With the new
k gold, the Ruling Body kept all the chief advisors, deputy -chief ad-
vlsore. the advisors and the outside consultants employed. As the,
wears passed. ARCSAP, Kuppie and Lizzle became weaker and
eaker until they finally dtedl When the golden eggs stopped, most
of the chief advisors, deputy -chief advisors, the advisors and the
outside consultants all left the northern land and went back whore
they came from. The northern people had forgotten how to mine,
fish and log and lived in poverty, entirely dependent upon pittances
given to them from the great king who lived in Washdc located
thousands of miles to the east. It was a miserable existence be-
cause the powerful king at Washdc didn't really understand the

people of the north and why they had killed ARCSAP and the other
geese.
TWO:
The Ruling Body believed the geese keeper and gave ARCSAP
the magic ELF formula and allowed Kuppie and Uzzle to continue
to use the formula. All three geese recovered and continued to
produce golden eggs, although not as many as before when the
WOP food made In the far away land was stronger. The Ruling
Body could no longer afford so many chief advisors, the deputy -
chief advisors, advisors and the outside consultants, so they fired
many of them. Those people all went back to live where they
originallycamefrom. Thenorthempeopleusedthetimeofreduced - - -
golden egg production to re -learn how to mine, fish and log, and
they become self-sufficient and no longer entirely dependent upon
the golden eggs. - - - - - - - - - -- - - -
After awhile, when the WOP food got a little stronger, ARCSi, .
hatched a new goose called Sak. Sak needed huge doses of the
magic ELF formula but produced numerous small golden eggs.
With the help of the Ruling Body, the geese keeper and ARCSAP `
also hatched ANWR which produced more large golden eggs and
the people of the north lived happily ever after.

Among several recent studies by oil
companies of bowhead whales in Alaskan
offshore areas is a 19M investigation of
underwater noise from a drillship oper-

The study took place at and around
an exploratory well drilled by Unocal in

about 13 miles north of Flaxman Island
in the central Alaskan Beaufort Sea.
This was the first well drilled in the

Air Quality at North Slope Oil Fields in Alaska
The quality of air in the vicinity of oil
fields on Alaska's North Slope, including
Prudhoe Bay, always has been far better
than federal and state standards for the
area, according to two publications by
Standard oil and ARCO. operators of
Prudhoe Bay oil Field.
Government data summarized in
these publications also refute recent al-
legations by some environmentalist
groups that the oil industry has created
severe pollution there, comparable to
that in huge U.S. cities.
The two publications are "Air Quality
Issues: The Prudhoe Bay Oil Field in
Perspective," June 1987, by Standard
Oil; and "Air Issues on the North Slope
of Alaska," 1987, by Jim A. lives and
C. Scutt Ronzio of ARCO.
Following in this article are reviews
of several aspects of North Slope air
quality discussed in these publications,
including:
• government standards for emissions
on the North Slope and elsewhere;
• sourcesofemissions.
• monitoring ofambientair quality;
• comparisons of Prudhoe Bay air
quality with other U.S. areas;
• the phenomenon called arctic hate.
Government Standards for Air
North Slope air quality must meet
standards set by both the federal
government and the State of Alaska.
In 1970. Congress passed the Clean
Air Act, which established national
ambient air quality standards.
The-U.S. government sets standards
for allowable levels of ambient amounts
of six Pollutants:
• nitrogen dioxides
• carbon monoxide
• ozone
• sulfurdioxide
• total suspended particulates
• lead
There are two standard levels for
each area: primary and secondary.
In 1977, an amendment to the Clean
Air Act set limits on increases in pollut-
ants in areas that met the national stan-
dards. This was to ensure that air quality i
does not deteriorate because of new
construction or new pollutant sources.
These are called attainment areas.
When these allowable increases in pol-
lutants are added to the previously ex -
fisting baseline concentrations, new
standards that are more stringent than
the national ambient air quality stan-
dards often are created. -
The entire North Slope is such an
attainment area and therefore has i
more stringent standards.
The North Slope and most of the
United States has been assigned Class
II standard rank, allr wing for moderate
growth. Class III areas are heavily in-
dustrialized, and increments allow for
significant growth. Class 1 areas are
pristine environments where minimal
Increases are allowed, such as Denali
National Park in Alaska.
In an attainment area, both existing
and now emission sources are required
to use the "best available control tech-
nology" to minimize emissions. A now
source must meet national limits, be
analyzed for inquut, and undergo start- I
up tests. ;
Emission Sources

North Slope is facilities which burn nut-

burning fuels available. It contains no
lead. During combustion, it produces
minimal amounts ofcarbon monoxide,
ozone, sulfur dioxide, and particulates.
The only pollutants that it can emit in
undesirable quantity are nitrogen oxides.
Nevertheless, even nitrogen oxide
levels at Prudhoe Bay are well below
the federal limits, as is shown in the
next section.
Monitoring of Air Quality
Two methods of monitoring determine
compliance with national standards: (1)
equipment is "stack -tested" to check
actual emissions and (2) ambient air is
tested for pollutants.
Stack -testing: New equipment must
undergo stack -testing procedures of the
Environmental Protection Agency. On
the North Slope, a third -party indepen-
dent contractor runs these tests. A rep-

power have determined that nitrogen
oxides are well below the maximum
levels allowed.
Ambient air monitoring: Again the
Enviromental Protection Agency sets
monitoring procedures and requires
special monitoring before new facilities
can he installed.
For example, the EPA required a
monitoring program in 1979-80 before
granting permits for new facilities at
Prudhoe Bay. At that time, all pollutants
were found to be well below national
limits, with the exception of a one-time
exceedance for particulates. This iso-
lated event was attributed to wind.
blown dust caused by high winds, not
to equipment emissions.
Several years after the 1979-80 mon-
itoring, the ADEC took over responsi-
bility for air -quality permitting in
Alaska. The ADEC, in consultation
with the EPA, decided to require post -
construction monitoring. This began in
1986 and extended into 1987.
Both a "near -field" monitoring station
and a"far-field" station were used at
Prudhoe Bay and Kuparuk oil fields.
The near -field stations were placed at
the maximum source of impact on air
quality, and the far -field stations were
several miles downwind of facilities.
The charts on the opposite page show
the results of measurements taken at
Prudhoe Bay for the main pollutant of
concern, nitrogen dioxide, as well as for
ozone, sulfur dioxide, and particulates.
In all cases, the charts show that Prudhoe
Bay concentrations were well below the
national standard (limit). Kuparuk results
were similar.
Lead was not measured because it is
not a factor at Prudhoe Bay. The ADEC
did not require monitoring of carbon
monoxide for the 1986-87 Prudhoe Bay
study, but carbon monoxide was mea.
sured there in u 1979-80 program (see
data in next section).
Comparison of Frudhoe Bay Air
with That of (Large Cities
An examination of the ambient air
atunlity concentrations at Prudhoo Bay
stows that none even approaches the
levels in large cities.
The national standard finr carbon
monoxide Is 9 parts per million (ppm)
for an 8-hour period. New York City,
Los Angeles, Washington. D.C., Da-u.
ver, and Anchorage regularly exceivd
this with levels its high as 17, 22,14.6.
26. and 10-12ppm respectively. At
Prudhoe Bay, maximum concentrations
measured have not exceeded 1 plum
(this data is based on the 1979-80 mon-
itoring program).
The national hourly standard for
ozone is 235 micrograms per cubic me.
ter. New York City, Los Angeles, Wash.
ington, and Denver can have up to 370,
764, 292, and 285 respectively. The all.
time maximum in Anchorage is 78; dur.
ing a 1985 monitoring, monthly aver-
ages were 10-37. At Prudhoe Bay,
ozone has averaged 55 and has never
exceeded 175. -
The national standard for sulfur diox-
ide is 365 micrograms per cubic meter
(24-hour maximum). New York, Los
Angeles, Washington, Denver, and An.
chorage do not exceed this standard.
New York has reached as high as 198.
Los Angeles averages 80 and Denver
78. Washington can reach IS and An-
chorage 23. However, the maximum
Prudhoe Bay concentration is below 16.
The national standard for nitrogen
dioxide is 100 micrograms per cubic
meter. New York averages 68, Los
Angeles 118, Washington 74, and
Denver 94. Anchorage levels are so low
that the EPA no longer requires mon-
itoring. Monthly average concen-
trations at Prudhoe Bay are below 15.
Arctic Haze
The phenomenon called arctic haze is
another air -quality issue that has been
widely examined recently.
Arctic haze was first described in
1956, long before any North Slope oil
facilities were built.
A process for "Bngerprintinl ' emis-
sions particles has shown that the hum
comes from industrial pollution pro-
duced in Europe and Asia. Smelting
and coal combustion are sources of the
have. The Ural Mountains industrial
complex in the U. S.S. R. has been sug-
gested as the sourcm. Other researchers
identify central Eurasia m the primary
winter source and Europe as the spring
source.
Also, because the haze is finnnd at
high altitudes over Prudhoe Bay, sci-
entists believe that North Slope sources
carte not contributing.
During an overflight at Prudhoe Bay
in 1980, NOAA lbund no contribution
to the haze from oil and gas production
facilities. Air emission data gathered at
the ground then did not match the arc-
tic haze "fingerprint."■

A Study of Bowheads
(Continued from page 1)
A drillship is a self-propelled vessel
which is designed to serve as an off-
shore platform for drilling oil wells. It is
outRtted with a drilling rig and all other
necessary equipment. For arctic waters,
the hull is "ice -strengthened" eith extra
steel to resist the forces of sea ice.
Six oil companies funded the drillship
study. Contractor LGL Ltd. and sub-
contractor Creeneridge Sciences Inc.
carried out the study.
Objectives were to determine:
• the location of whales in relation to
the drilling site,
• underwater noise levels and charac.
teristics generated by the drillship
operation,
• variations in noise levels over time.
Whales were monitored by aerial
surveys and an acoustic system.
The study could not cover actual
well -drilling noise at the Hammerhead
site because the federal government
prohibited drilling in that area during
the 1985 bnwhead migration season. At
that time, no direct studies had been
made of whether noise front exploratory
drilling harms bowheads, but the re-
striction prevented drilling at a time
when such studies could be made.
(In the next year, -I98B,-the govern-
ment allowed drilling during the fill
-whale migration fir the first time, and
Shell vommissioned LCL to study
whale reaction to drillship noise at the
Hammerhead site and at Corona, an-
other drilling site to the east. Results of
the 1986 study are not included here.)

In 1985, the year of the study reported
here, drilling at the Hammerhead site
was completed before the fail whale tnt-
gration began. But the drillship and
support vessels were still on site involved
with well testing during the early part
of the migration. so some useful infor-
mation about the noise characteristics of
drilling operations could be gathered.
In addition, the drillship and support
vessels moved east to the Corona site
during the middle and end of the migra-
tion. At the Corona site. well preparation
activity was permitted during the migra-
tion.'ltie aerial surveys of whale lerca-
tions extended far enough east to include
the Corona site as well.
So, even though the study muld not
cover direct tests of whale responses to
drilling, it could cower measurements of
some drilling( -related noise sources.

This is floe thirteenth in a series of
articles designed to anmer basic ques-
tions about the petroleum industry.
These articles may be photocopied
for distribution or use in schools. Back
issues are available.
The fluid that comes out of an oil well
usually is a complex mixture of crude
oil, gases. water, and a small amount of
sediment (solids).
Before the oil can be shipped to
refineries by pipeline or tanker ship, it
must be separated from the other fluid
components, measured, and tested. In
addition, the non -oil components must
be used or disposed of in ways that are
both economical and safe for the
environment.
For the separation process, a system
of treatment facilities and holding tanks
is required. The process is summarized
in the chart on the opposite page and is
0 described in the following sections.
The Separation Process
The first step is to separate the liquid
components from the gaseous by pass-
ing the well fluid through a separator
system.
In the first chamber of the system,
well fluid is swirled to make oil -laden
liquid particles collect on the walls. In
addition, gravity causes oil -laden liquid
to drop to the bottom of the chamber.
The separated gases rise and are
removed.
The separated gases still contain
some small oil and water particles, so
they must be swirled again in another
chamber of the system to remove as
much oil and water as possible.
The separated liquid also still con-
tains some places and is run through a
second separator (or through a third or
more operated at successively lower
pressures) to obtain the maximum
purity possible... _
After gases are separated from the
liquid, then the liquid must be sepa.
rated into water and crate oil.
Part of the water, called free water,
separates easily in a vessel where the
lighter oil rises and floats on the heavier
water. But another part of the water
may not separate naturally because it is

trapped in an emulsion with the oil
(where minute globules of one fluid are
distributed throughout the other). This
happens when the fluid is agitated as it
flows from the well in the presence of
substances called emulsifying agents,
such as asphalt and resinous materials
which occur naturally in the well fluid.
Some oil -water emulsions break down
easily, but others are stable and must be
treated by neutralizing the properties of
the emulsifying agent with heat, chemi-
cals, and/or electricity, usually in a
device called a heater -treater.
Disposal Processes for Gas and Water
A variety of methods may be used
to dispose of the gas and water removed
during the separation and treatment
process or to make use of them. Disposal
must cause no harm to the environment.
Several methods make good use of
most of the gas, which is natural (hydro-
carbon) gas.
Sometimes the gas is of commercial
or fuel quality. so it is used to power
equipment at the oil field, is piped off to
market, or is liquefied for shipment.
Other times, the gas is injected into
the fluid columns inside oil wells to aid
removal of the oil. This process is called
gas lift and was described in the Q & A
article in the Spring 1987 issue ofAlas-
kan Update.
In other situations, the natural gas is
pumped directly into the pore spaces of
the oil-bearing rock formation to aid re-
moval of more oil than could be obtained
otherwise. This process was described
in the Q & A article in the Summer 1987
issue ofAloskan Update. -
In still other situations where there is
no need for the gas in oil production and
no way to get it to market (as on a re-
mote offshore platform), the gas may he
reinjected into other subsurface rock
limitations fir future use.
At the_oil fields oft Alaska % North
Slope such as Prodlne Bay, separated
natural gas (called "produced gas") either
is consumed as fitel for engines and gen-
erators or is reinjected into the oil field
to aid recovery through the methods
just described. This means that gener-
ally there is no need to burn gas in a

high-pressure hydrocarbon gases being
processed must be discharged and
burned in a flare.
Flares burn gas at high temperatures
in the open air and leave very little or
no ash residue. They have combustion
efliciencies of up to 98%.
Under ordinary combustion condi-
tions, flares produce little or no visible
smoke. When they are used during
facility start-up or emergency situations.
they may emit black smoke, which is
unsightly but of little harm to air qual-
ity. The blackness results when gas is
incompletely burned, leaving carbon
particles, not harmful pollutants. In
addition, situations that produce black
smoke rarely take place and then for a
brieftime.
In the gas separation process, small
quantities of other gases may Le re-
moved along with natural hydrocarbon
gas. Some of these like carbon dioxide
are natural components of air and may
be released into the atmosphere. Or.
these gases may be reinjected into a
subsurface rock formation along with
reinjected natural gas.
In some fields, a gaseous component
is hydrogen sulfide, which at certain
concentrations is very toxic to human
beings. It also is very corrosive to met-
als. Whenever this gas is present in well
fluids, all subsurface and surface sys-
tems are especially designed to protect
against its various hazards.
Disposal methods fir water removed
from well fluids depend on several fac-
tors, including salinity and geography,
Usually, separated water contains many
salts dissolved from the limitation rock
and mate le as salty its sea water. For
this reason, in some offshore areas, this

pumped into the sea.
In other offshore areas and most on-

Likewise, in two other 1985 surveys

Most howheads passed the Ham-

As a result of a t is in arms , l
researchers concluded that the absence
of whales in water less than about 98
feet deep or near the Hammerhead site 4
should not be attributed to noise at the
site, but to a natural, overall pattern for
the 1985 migration.

For the first, four hydrophones (one i
such ut depths of nbaut 9.8.19.7, 2f; -• - � _ - - - and 59 feet) measured underwater j
noise. They were placed at various dis- 1
tunes from the drillship, ranging from
(Continued on page 6)

u
A Study of 6owheade
(Continued frpm page 5)
►bout 0.12 to 5.7 miles, and at three
different directions from the ship (port
side, bow aspect, and starboard side).
Sound levels were measured in vari-
ous frequencies in the range of20-1000
Hertz (cycles per second). The frequency
range was chosen because bowhead
calls are predominately in this range.
In general, the noise level was found
to increase as hydrophone depth in-
creased. Noise levels along the port and
starboard sides were comparable and
slightly higher than levels on the bow.
In general, the rate at which sound
levels diminished with increasing dis-
tance from the drillship was not rapid
and was less than expected (based on
previous studies in the Canadian Beau-
fort Sea), but certain components of the
sound that appparently originated at or
near the drillship did decrease at the
expected rate. A significant level of
sound apparently generated by a sup•
port ship with damaged propellers may
have biased these acoustic results.
In addition to the hydrophone mon-
itoring system, an array of five anchored
acoustic buoys was installed about 6.8
IWIles east of the Hammerhead site and
operated for nine days in September
until it was destroyed by ice.
The acoustic -buoy system was de-
signed for two purposes: (1) to test the
feasibility of tracking bowheads through
monitoring their calls and (2) to mea-
sure variations in drilling -related noise
over time.
Unfortunately, no bowheads were
heard because none appeared to be in
the area during that period of the study

This map shows the locations of migrating bowhead whales sighted during the study
involving drillship operations described in the article beginning on page 1. Whales

these routes, wereflown lown between September 11 and October 20,1985.
(as revealed by the aerial survey), so it
was not possible to test the system capa-
bility for trucking whales. Nevertheless,
the researchers found that calibration
tests involving industrial sounds showed
that the system had good localization
capability and appeared to be a viable
monitoring tool. They concluded that
Industrial noise could mask the de-
tection of distant whale calls as for away
as about 0-7 miles from the drillship.
The buoy system also was used to
evaluate temporal variation in noise
surrounding the drilling site. Sound
levels and composition were deter-
mined for segments of 8.5 seconds
taken once each hour for 176 hours.
For 9517a of the hours studied, noise
levels exceeded natural sounds that
would be expected under gale weather
conditions, called "sea state six" condi-
tions on the Beaufort Scale. Noise levels
in the 20-1000 Hertz band fell below
113 decibels only 5% of the time.■

K. INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCES
(a) Ord. 88-10 "Amending the City of Seward Comprehensive
aL n�Q'ee flan and Amending the Seward Urban District
Zoning Code and Map" (Mayor @ Req. Planning Commission)
ASSEMBLYM1dMBER GLICK MOVED TO SET ORD. 88-10 FOR HEARING ON MAY 3,
1988.
Mr. Skogstad reported Local Affairs Cmte. recommended hearing be set.
Pres. Sewall invited public comment.
ludv Hildebrand, City of Seward. objected to the restriction against
an ma s Inside the City contained in the ordinance. She reported for
10 years she had owned animals not allowed by this ordinance except
through a conditional use permit. She believed the way the code
currently read concerning cleanup was reasonable and adequate. She
noted there was an active 4-H group in the city and this ordinance
would curtail such activities.
Mrs. McGahan stated she had been concerned for some time about the
restrictiveness of the Seward zoning ordinance for a small town in
Alaska. She recognized a person concerned about livestock in the
city limits might not know this ordinance had anything to do with
animals from the published title. She felt it was unfair to persons
who had purchased property in the City knowing there was no such
restriction to afterwards impose it.
In response to questions from Mrs. Walli, Acting City Manager Darr 1
Schaefer�meve�r reported the ordinance as recommended by the Uty
ma—ining Commission was approved by the City Council. The decision
was made that livestock in the City was better handled by zoning than
by the health statute.
Pres. Sewall passed the gavel to Vice Pres. Carey in order to comment
that since the City has preferred not to take over their own zoning,
they expected the Aseembly not to rubber stamp, but to make a
decision. He felt additional people should have opportunity to
address it on May 3rd.
The gavel was returned to Pree. Sewall.
Mr. Berman, of Nash Road. outside City, referred to the 4-H organiza-
tion ind Umber of families involved in the rodeo and other activi-
ties. He reporting hearing many disparagging remarks in connection
with the proposed restriction. He Spoke of the beneficial effects on

Mayor Gilman reported receiving three applications, and finding no

protected. Only estimates are available as to what the incentive
might coot the borough. The Boroughs one -quarter share being
applied for would come to $750,000 for the three applications. No
other municipality in the state has participated in the program. He
stated he anticipated working with one of the processors to do a

Mr. Mullen stated the effect of the ordinance would be to take

processors, with a possible tax increase to residents to coommppensate.
Currently they can get reimbursement from the state up to 50x of the
tax. He urged it not be set for hearing,

Several proposals for the equipment are in hand within the amount
requested. He stated the Clerk had verified none of the proposals
were from companies her husband was connected with.
In response to questions from the Assembly, the Clerk reported three
proposals are required by the purchasing ordinance and the third
proposal is overdue this date. One of the firms will be selected to
provide all the equipment requested so that they can do set-up and
verification that the system works. The three proposals were from
Alaska MicroSysteme, Denali Computer Services and Computer Land.
Mrs. Phillips stated in light of the fact that the $13,500 requested
will undoubtedly be saved through codification of ordinances she
recommended approval of the resolution and purchase of the equipment
as soon as possible.
Mr. Mullen also encouraged passage, noting a lot of research had gone
into the decision regarding what equipment should be purchased.
RES. 88-21 WAS ADOPTED BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
(b) Res. 88-29 "In Support of the Program Provided by
Tfa-Tr Tne Fish Hatchery" (Sewall/Glick/Skogetad)
ASSEMBLYMEMBER GLICK MOVED THE ADOPTION OF RES. 88-29.
Mr. Skogetad reported Local Affairs Cate. heard Regional Manager Tom
Crone and Trail Lakes Manager Terry Elison as well as CIIA Director
Tom Mears, No actual recommendation was voted upon.
Mr. McLane commented the bill signed by the Governor last week and
from the cooperation exhibited between representatives of ADF&G, FRED
and CIIA, he did not feel the resolution was necessary.
Mr. Skogetad believed this resolution was only asking that the
parties to any agreement consider carefully the economic impact of
any change to the existing program.
Pros. Sewall passed the gavel to Vice Pros. Carey in order to comment
that passage of 410 by the House and Senate made Res. 88-22 moot and
it should properly be Tabled when returned. This resolution reflects
one passed by the Seward Ch6mber of Commerce and has none of the
negative conotatione of the former one, but is positive in every
respect.
The ggavel was returned to Pree. Sewall and Mr. Carey spoke in support
of tine resolution which he said only asks careful consideration.
Mrs. McGahan commented that since Cook inlet Aquaculture Assn. had
pledged to continue the existing programs and eventually expand them
if they took over operation of the hatchery, the resolution was not
against that option. She was sure if CIAA did take over the
operation they would insure the program is continued in Resurrection
Bay.

Pres. Sewall invited public comment.
Darr 1 Schaeferme er, Acting City Manager of Seward, stated the
resolution was ntroduced at the request of the City as part of the
commitment made by the City in connection with the refinancing of the
Spring Creek facility. a reported the reversionary clause was
included three years ago when the Borough deeded the land for the
facility to the City of Seward to insure it would be used for the
intended purpose. Now that the prison is completed, the City would
like to see the reversionary clause removed. The facility is
designed to be doubled in capacity and the land will be so used for
many years to come.
In answer to questions, Mr. Schaefermeyer reported that of the 260

Mayor Gilman also responded that the port of entry process is a

obtaining port of entry status. Before you can have a foreign trade
zone, you also must have a customs facility.

Mr. Brown stated basically a foreign trade zone is an area with U.S.
Customs supervision under which foreign products can be brought to
the U.S. deferring payment of duties until the goods leave the zone.
Nearly 46 letters have been received by one applicant. from Japan and
Korea, indicating a free trade zone would potentially attract their

Don Berman. Nash Road, addressed the flooding problem reoccurring in
s area. He reported he had purchased his Nash Road property in
1982 and soon after moving in experienced the first flooding or the
creek. He brought his problem to the state legislators and the
borough assembly, but although it was recognized as a serious
problem, no one offered a workable solution. He described obstruc-
tions in the stream that cause it to flood but because of interest in
keepingg the fish spawning undisturbed, they are not removed. He
described his efforts to correct the problem which were frustrated by
regulations against his activity. He Bug sated real estate brokers
be required to advise, over signature of seller and buyer, that
wetland sales are under restrictions. He noted in time this area
will be required for development as a result of the prison facility.
He felt the condemnation solution might be the only answer. If the
price paid was fair he would be agreeable. He repeated hie request
for some entity to solve the problem.
Pree. Sewall commented the flood plain ordinance introduced would
address some of hie concerns. He reported Planning Director Fenner
was working on a plan for further rectifying the problem which would
be forthcoming.
Mayor Gilman noted in regard to the flood problem, when there is a
disaster, regulations are set aside in the interests of providing
needed help. When the disaster is over, the regulatory process is
extremely slow. The Borough has contracted with an engineering firm
to do an analysis of the area and what can be done to protect
property. When that is accomplished a proposal will be taken to all
the concerned agencies and then to the legislature for funding.
Other areas will be looked at also for potentially hazardous condi-
tions.

KENAI PENINSULA BOROUGH ASSEMBLY REGULAR MEETING OF APRIL 5. 1988
Mr. McLane expressed frustration with practices referred to as
traditional since the Assembly is a constantly changing body. He
supported placing of rules in the code or in the manual.
Mr. Skogstad believed there was widespread concern for having some
controls over outfitters which don't exist at this time. He stated
guides in the state are basically managers of specific districts with
the responsibility of maintaining a stable game population year to
year. Since there is no law regulating outfitters, they can bring in
as many hunters as they wish, pay no fees and be irresponsible as far
ae the amount of game taken. He believed the bill under considera-
tion was necessary.
Mrs. McGshan concurred with the idea of meeting in Nikiski. She
thanked the Mayor for the early budget document. She expressed
appreciation for the City of Seward and the opportunity to visit.
Mr. Nash expressed appreciation for the timing of the meeting during
beautiful weather.
Mrs. Phillips reported Don Young was in Homer this date, would be in
Kenai/Soldotna the 6th. She stated while she was in Juneau on
Community College business, she was impressed with the local legisla-
tor's fight for SB 330 and the overriding of the Governor's veto.
ASSEMBLYMEMBER PHILLIPS MOVED A LETTER OF APPRECIATION BE SENT AND IT
WAS APPROVED WITHOUT OBJECTION.
Mre. Phillips noted the achievement of Kristine. McInnes, although she
we from a small school, had no costly coaches, and had no travel
budget. She felt the people of Seldovia needed to be commended as
well for their support through fundraisers and encouragement.
Mrs. Walli asked concerning a petition she had heard was circulating
for elected Planning Commission members. Mayor Gilman stated his
information was that the bill would not leave committee. Mrs. Walli
thanked members of the public who attended the meeting for coming.
Mr. Crawford recognised the problem of the creek reported by Mr.
Berman, stating he hoped they would be able to offer more than
sympathy for his situation.
Mrs. Glick also thanked the Seward area people for hosting the
Assembly. She reported since the last Assembly meeting, the Kenai
Caucus has had two well attended meetings. She and Gloria Wisecarver
went to Juneau to lobby, contacting the Lt. Governor and a number of
legislators. She appreciated the help of Marla Huss and Sen.
Fischer's staff. She reviewed bills and appropriations they lobbied
for as well as having an interview with Huh Malone. She noted the
Seldovia Chamber has indicated a desire to join the Caucus.
Mr. Carey reported receiving calla from residents of Nikiski who do
not wish to have their children at the new school and noted many
different numbers abroad as to projected enrollment at the school.
ASSEMBLYMEMBER CARRY MOVED TO ASK FOR A POLL AT KCHS AND SOLDOTNA HS
TO DETERMINE HOW MANY STUDENTS PLAN TO ATTEND THE NIKISKI HS IF IT IS
OPENED.
Mrs. McGahan reported the first survey was done in 1971 (812 in'
favor) and with many since. She objected to another. As a mother,
she stated she had made the decision as to what school her children
attended and believed that would be the case in most families.
Mr. Hodgine believed once people see the new school, including the
students, they will understand -the advantages.
Mr. Brown stated the same situation existed in Houston where 57
students " elected" to -stay - in- the old school the first year and the
number has steadily decreased since.

Dear Mayor Williams,
At our recent Council on Aging meeting, the board considered
the issues involving the possible woodshop closure.
It is the recommendation of this board to close the woodshop
immediately for other use.

n TO MAYOR'S COUNCIL ON AGING
Kenai, Alaska
DATE: May 3, 1988
We offer to the Mayor's Council on Aging, for their consideration, a
synopsis of the written material that was presented to Mayor Williams and to each
member of the Kenai City Council, at their meeting, held at Kenai City Hall on
April 20, 1986.
We have been assured, by members of the Medical Profession, that the
Carpenter Shop is much needed for Therapeutic purposes. Dr. Gaede has written a
letter to the City Council affirming this.
Mr. Afta, a Woodworking Instructor, for the Peninsula Community College,
attested to the fact that the machinery in the Carpenter Shop is safe.
We have well over one hundred sixty (160) signatures on our petitions who
agree that the Carpenter Shop should remain open, not only for the Seniors that
now use it, but for the use of future Senior Citizens.
In 1985, Proposition 7 was placed on the ballot. If Proposition 7 passes
It would give the Kenai Borough the power to subsidize all Senior Centers within
It's jurisdiction. Proposition 7 was passed by the tax payers by a substantial
margin. The tax paying voters therefore, feel that they have been premitted to
have a voice in this matter.
We have also contacted O.S.H.A., concerning insurance on the Carpenter
Shop. They informed us that the Senior Citizen Center is a public building which
Is being used by both Seniors and the Public; and that the Kenai Citizen Center was
built with grants from the Government. An insurance policy should have been pur—
chased for the protection of all personnel before the building was accepted by
Government Inspectors.
On Friday, April 22, 1988, I was accosted on the foyer of the Kenai Citizen
Center by Mrs. Betty Warren and Mrs. Sylvia Johnson, President and Vice President
of the Mayors Council on Aging. Both Mrs. Warren and Mrs. Johnson called me foul
names and Mrs. Johnson attempted to strike me with her purse. On Monday noon,
April 25, 1988, during lunch, while Mrs. Warren was informing the Seniors about the
Segregated Housing, and between sentences, Mrs. Warren, in an almost unavoidable
voice, apologized to me.
I am not satisfied with this form of apology. I request that Mrs. Warren
and Mrs. Johnson write their apology in paper and place the apology on the bulletin
board.
The path leading from Front Street to the Senior Center has been prepared
for gravel. Mr. Brighten assured us that the gravel will be delivered as soon as
possible.
If more information is needed concerning these matters, we suggest you con—
tact Mayor John Williams, Mayor of the City of Kenai. -

Dear Kurt,'
You and I have had several discussions regarding the City recently. I
would like to address a problem with the shop' in the Senior Center.
r
As I understand it, the City provides this facility for community
seniors. Part of the Center is a 'woodshop', available for in-
dividuals to use. As you know, even an adequately supervised woodshop
is an underwriting concern. In this case, however, you have mentioned
several areas that lead me to believe we have a serious life safety
hosard.
I refer specifically to these pointsa,
1. Lack of adequate supervision. Apparently there is no one who is
assigned to specifically monitor this area, just Center personnel
who are also assigned other duties.
2. Lack of safety and equipment training. I gather that the insured
has no program to make sure that all individuals who use the .
equipment have been properly trained in its use, nor do they train
In adequate safety precautions,.
3. Equipmant maintenance / lack of appropriate machine guarding. You
may that many of the machines have had their safety guards removed,
or that the equipment has been otherwise altered. Obviously ,this
poses phenomenal problems with potential liability.
Kurt, I am sure you are aware of the dangers inherent in 'shop'
operations of all kinds. The problems above make this part of the
operation unacceptable from any underwriting perspective. I would ask
that you discuss this with the insured, and either get a commitment
to correct the deficiencies above, or to stop offering this 'service'
.to their seniors. (It will definitely NOT be a 'service' when someone
is seriously injured due to the above).
Due to the serious nature of this hasard, I would appreciate a
decision from the insured ASAP. Could ___hear from you by the end of
this week (Q 5-8) ? Many thanks for your help...

Dear Tims
Thank you for your letter of April 26• 1988. 1 have
discussed at length the situation at the Senior Center with
John Pendergrass, the CIGNA regional national account
underwriting manager. Enclosed please find a copy of his
May 1. 1988 letter outlining specific points that need to
be addressed in the immediate future or CIGNA may exclude
the wood shop from your liability policy.
It is my opinion that it will be almost impossible to
comply with all three of the points addressed in Mr.
Pendergrass' letter. I therefore recommend that the City
consider dismantling the wood shop as soon as possible.
Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
