As we understand, it is their intent ion to lease this land for the purposs of adding two more screens to their interprise. They presently have three screens on this site, and Orca Theaters has two screens at their site on Kalifornski Beach Road. This intention to add screens to an already overscreened area is not in the best interest of the community, or the movie industry as a whole. There is a industry formula that governs how may screens an area can adequately support. This formula indicates that for each screen built, it requires a population of 10,00e people. As of the population count of 19879 there was 27,347 residents in the Kenai/Soldotna area, which includes Nikiski, Sterling and outlying areas- Based on this formula, our area can only support 3.65 screens. This formula is further justified by. the fact that neither of the existing theater owners is presently in a prof it,pIaturs. Our firm is on a break even basis, and we would assume the Kambe is also. The addition of any new screens at the present time could cause economic distress to an area now holding its own. Also, there is a limited product available at any given time. The movie distributors control the distribution of their product. They .do not allow two theaters within a 10 mile radius to show the same movies. An addition of two more scrMns, making a total of seven screens would not bring more product to the Kenai area, and would probably result in longer scheduling time of each movie, and also result in more re -runs of movies already viewed.

The City of Kenai Public Works department has made some changes to the original application which lowers the total Project funds to $180,000. After much coordination and planning between the Public Works Department, Greater Kenai Chamber of Commerce, and the Kenai City Council, the following attachments are being resubmitted as part of the grant application for this project. 1.

As mentioned in the program narrative, this project provides a unique opportunity to show how private businesses (Kenai Chamber of Commerce), local government (City of Kenai), State Government (State of Alaska), and Federal Government (National Park Service) can all work together for the benefit of the people and the environment. In many cases, projects such as this which involve volunteer labor and donated equipment and materials have numerous difficulties and problems during its construction. The City of Kenai, by accepting this grant, agrees to place its resources towards the successful j completion of the project and insures that the project will be Ii completed correctly. If any further information is needed please feel free to contact Jack La Shot, City Engineer, or myself at the above address or phone number.

Brown, Finance Directorea Q DATE: October 6, 1988 SUBJECT: Kenai Flats Wildlife Viewing Area Attached is a pencil draft of a substitute to Ordinance No. 1289-88 that includes new donation levels as set out in the Chamber of Commerce letter dated October 5, 1988. Please review this substitute and advise me if you think it should be revised. I know that you are aware of the potential for problems with regard to adequate, verifiable documentation for donated labor, services, and materials, as well as for City employee labor and equipment. You and I have discussed this several times. However, for the record, perhaps it is time to begin addressing some of these concerns in writing. Donated Labor: Design a time sheet that can be used by individuals donating their labor. It should include days and times worked, type of work, total hours worked, individual signature, and supervisor signature. This information could be entered onto a spreadsheet to summarize values. You should also document the labor rate. Other service and Materials: Try to obtain actual invoices or statements from companies or individuals donating survey work, shop time, supplies, etc. Land: The City's land should be appraised. City Emaloyees and Equipment: Design supplemental time/equipment reports for each employee to complete. Finance can supply the appropriate employee rate (including benefits). You should supply the appropriate equipment rates. These reports should be submitted at the end of each month with regular timesheets. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of good documentation. Auditors will take a close look at any recorded costs not substantiated by cash. They will question hours and appropriate rates. As a final note, please make sure that the grant matches the expected sources of revenuesasclosely as possible.

Review of Cold Storage Project by City Manager. i Bill Brighton said the Cold Storage Proposal needs one more clearance befor the final disposition in Washington. He said that at this time there is no action needed by the EDC. ` B. Finalize Draft Letter to the Kenai Native Association. - Chairman O'Reilly reviewed the Draft Letter and said that he will do the final form and submit it to the Kenai City Council. j � All Commissioners present felt the final draft should go befor ?€ the City Council befor sending to the Kenai Native Association. C. OEDP Presentation Commissioner Jim Carter passed out the OEDP Table of Contents and gave some background information on the OEDP, and some additional information on the Borough plan and the Overall Economic Development Plan. Kevin Fenner, who is the Director and Planner explained what work was currently being done and the methods being used for gathering data. He said all those involved are moving forward with the developing of the EDD and at this time r Jim Carter passed out the booklet for viewing that the � Committee had put together. Also it was mentioned that they had contracted for a study on the LNG. Mr. Fenner gave some background on the Comprehensive Plan for the City of Kenai and said that it is one priority with the - committee since it had never been finalized. He stated that J they would like to work with the EDC, the Kenai City Council, and the Planning Commission to update that document and are moving ahead on this work to bring it to the point of - adoption. Shelf Edwards,who is the planner Shelly _ p ,. presented what they were now doing at this time on gathering Data for the Data s Base and using the information to pass on to interested groups and individuals. Commissioner Darren Bond asked if - the information that they were gathering would be accessible 7 11 7 i ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION October 13, 1988 Page 3 since in the past it had been difficult to obtain figures and what was being done? She replied that all the information that they were gathering would be made available and by keeping an open communication with committees and commissions plus organizations they would be trying to not duplicate work all ready done. Stan Steadman mentioned the GIS program (Geographic Information System) and all commissioners and persons present were surprised at the capabilities of such a program. Again Mr. Carter said that the EDD wanted to finalize a work session with the Kenai Economic Development Commission so that will be done in the near future. D. BOROUGH DETACHMENT At this time Chairman Vince O'Reilly asked that those present follow along with him in reviewing the Study Prepared By The City of Kenai Economic Development Commission, for The Kenai City Council. All commissioners present were asked to comment about the study and the feeling from the EDC Commissioners was that a great deal of work at gone into the study and it should go to the City Council. At this time Karen McGahan,Gary Superman and Jack Brown asked to make comments to the EDC Commission on the Borough Detachment. These people had not seen the study and asked to be able to read it. Mrs. McGahan said she believes the State of Alaska representatives that she has talked to are encouraging those interested to pursue this Detachment issue Also she felt the school board was very pro Soldotna and by having a new borough there would, he more of a equal voice for the various districts. Questions were asked -as to why Nikiski was not able to accompolish what they needed and why only a few people were working on this issue? Sallie Bailie asked Jack Brown what time frame they were looking at in order to move ahead on this issue and it was stated that none had been established at this time. ! A great deal of -discussion followed with all persons present end the three people from Nikiski felt they could not snake a good E° presentation at this -time-. I: Z r r �u ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION October 13, 1988 7 pm Page A Mr. Brown said that the Detachment Committee is relying on the City of Kenai to furnish information and was pleased with the Study that the EDC had completed. Mr. Superman said that there are four or five folks working on the Detachment Committee and feels more information needs to be gathered plus fund raising befor the issue can be put to the people. Jim Butler stated that the people are concerned with this detachment issue and it needed to be addressed and settled in a timely manner. Chairman O'Reilly asked if a motion was in order at which time Commissioner Barry Thomson made a motion that the Study be submitted to t_e_Kenai City Couna an mores t was needed grid Perhaps a Seconded by Commissioner Darren Bond. Roll Call Vote was taken: Darren Bond Yes Barry Thomson Yes Jim Carter Yes Jim Elson No Vince O'Reilly Yes At -this time Chairman O'Reilly stated for the record to be included in the minutes what the EDC recommendations were: 1. Perhaps the Kenai City Council will need a better definition by the North Kenai Groups of what is wanted and to what degree of citizen support exists for those wants. 2. That they may want to consider that since the risks of all parties, kenai, north Kenai, the Borough, the State, are different and unequal, that any negotiations must include all parties that are at risk. if the wholesale , retail center, that we are is considered and the sensitivity of that and the people, it is felt the City of Kenai should not be in the position of greater risk. All parties at risk, the Borough, the State,North Kenai and Kenai, should be involved in the negotiations. Also since.North Kenai seems to be more interested in additional powers and controls and the balance of the Borough seems to be more concerned in maintaining the present tax base there may be some type of a compromise where service areas can share -tax base and this should be examined by North Kenai. --Bill-Br-Dr-said he felt the EDC should -go thru the extensive - information on Borough Detachment provided and sort out the necessary information needed. He felt the Council was asking for help in this matter and the EDC had been charged to do this. L ■ T ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION October 13, 1988 7 pm Page 5 i Commissioner Thomson said the EDC was directed to do this without any direction given , only to provide Council with as much information as could be obtained for their consideration and it certainly can be sent back to the EDC with more direction given. Also the Council is an elected body by the people of Kenai and the EDC is an appointed Commission. Commissioner Bond reminded those present that the EDC was not asked to make a recommendation and also not asked to sensor the information gathered but rather to gather as much information and then present it to Council. At this time Commissioner Jim Elson asked to make a statement to be included in the minutes and recorded. He is opposed to pursuing i this issue any further. First this is the third time that the City has been involved in Detachment and there has been reference f made this evening by a couple of witnesses at the attempt in 1972 and it was eluded that at that time information was not put together properly, nor was there proper information provided and also that the opposition came from other areas other than the Nikiski area. Having been a part of that and a representative of the City of Kenai at that time , he has different memories of that and for one the 1 opposition of the unification at thattime came strongly from the j N iski area, opposing the unification. Secondly, the City at this point has noting to gain except the lower tax base and we have all the powers that are needed plus we ! are in a good position now with an excess of some 65 million that j ` the city has for a number of years struggled to get those assets and he sees no reason to put this in any kind of jeoparady, of which there is that possibility. I Third, in refering to the supposedly lower tax base, there are things � that could occur within the supposedly new borough, as refered to the j by the Nikiski people such as pollution control and cleanup, which l could raise their tax base, so there really is no promise of their being lower taxes. Looking at the report that Mr. Lynn presented, there are numberous questions raised as to how the assets of the tax base and services could be provided and there is no cohesive answers ' and possibly years of litigation that would be involved in resolving a number of these answers, in which the City of Kenai would have to bare some of those expenses. -If the people of Nikiski are really serious in pursuing the separation and want to include the City of Kenai than he thinks they have to come to the city with a much stronger and better prepared proposal, answering some of these questions. He doesn't feel at this point it should be the position 4 of the City of Kenai to be the one to provide those answers. Again the City should not be the one to provide those answers because the City has nothing -to gain from it. The answers as to how the bonded indebtedness is to be split, whether it is going to be a 2nd class borough,whether it would be unified? There needs -to be some -concrete - proposal and until we know that the people of Nikiski are satisfied with the type of government they are seeking, there is no reason for the City of Kenai to make a financial committment or take a position one way or another.Again the city has nothing to gain by pursuing L W r- N ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION October 13, 1988 7 pm Page 6 this any further. The people of Nikiski have everything to gain by finding the answers to these questions and then coming to the City with a concrete proposal. A proposal of which we could get legal advice as to if it is pursued, what would be the outcome? Now, there are so many questions nobody knows where to begin. Nobody even knows what to ask an attorney. He does not see it as the responsibility of the City of Kenai to pursue it! He states that "we have been offer- ed ideas and some grieviences that some people have presented against the present borough and there is nothing to guarantee that if we are a part of a new borough that animosity be shifted -toward us as being in control of either the population or economics, as well as incurring animosity from the rest of the population that we serve." The attempt in 1972-was supported by very influential people from Nikiski and there was a great deal of media coverage and a very active campaign from both Kenai and Nikiski however it did not have the support of the people. "I feel something has to be done to bring this befor the population. Commissioners Barry Thomson,and Darren Bond were in agreement with Commissioner Jim Elson and wished to go on record as supporting his statement. These minutes were to be done for.the October 19 Kenai City Council meeting. Because of the indebt nature and the information that the EDC wished provided to City Council there will be an amended sheet to include Commissioner Thomsons report on the RDC meeting.

We are concerned that certain'information relevant to the potential tannexation of our Wildwood acreage used•_as, the basis for wawycous recommendation to the- Mayor and City alarif ication. We have chosen to prepare this partial response" to""""'�I some of the issues raised in your May 1988 report by letter nowe rather than 3gaLt action to address these •� s, n :hopes that misinformation or m -interpretation may be avoided. , Although RNA does have responsibility for providing certain services at Wildwood which are normally provided by a municipality (such as road maintenance and repair, snow removal, water and sewer operations and maintenance, etc.), the costs of doing so 1 have not been ._yrohibitive. The point made at our meeting with r omm scion was..that KNA was not a professional in providing these services and did not care to continue to provide them. Our position is tat pr va a ent ties should not be providing services that a municipality is better equipped to provide. It is true that the State of Alaska may at some time determine that it is in its best interest to exercise its option to purchase the prison at Wildwood. However, the prison facility consists of less than one ercent_.of_the�land under discussion for annexation. The VViffTema nder of the property is ideal for industr al siting. Therefore, the future real property tax base for revenue generation could be potentially much greater than the prison could ever generate. As you should all know, RNA is actively seeking opportunities in that area. It is our opinion that it will be- easier to attract industry if services are provided by the municipality rather than a private entity such as RNA.- -What this seems to boil down to is the -old chicken and egg situations Should the City wait until industry indicates a desire to locate at Wildwood prior to annexation or should the City annex now and allow that factor to be used as a tool to attract industry? L j F7 City of Kenai July 8, 1988 Page 2 Our current understanding of the 1991 Amendments to ANCSA lead us to understand that if our land is "productive" in a profitable sense that it would not be tax exempt. Therefore, if RNA is successful in attracting industrial clients the property :.' would be taxable to the extent of its use. Of couse, everyone will have to abide by any court opinions rendered to the ! contrary. However, RNA has no intentions of carrying the banner into the - -- `i court room on behalf matter. of other native groups on this The State of Alaska has been extremely cooperative in allowing and providing access to the prison compound for any sort of maintenance work which has been necessary. This is not a maximum security prison facility. No one has ever expressed to - RNA any reservations about working inside the fences, especially since the guards are present and the prisoners could be isolated, if necessary, during work periods. In sum, the prison fences have never a to in proved problem RNA getting anything accomplished. You should be aware that RNA is presently working with the Army Corps of Engineers to locate, identify, remove or otherwise render harmless any hazardous substances which may be present on this former military installation. Although we have not requested a legal opinion on this particular issue from our counsel, it is .s our current opinion that the ultimate liability, if any, for asbestos d er such substances will relate back to the United States Government or the contractor who initially located the materials onto Wildwood. " Although there are several other matters raised in your report which are questionable in our opinion, the above addresses our major concerns. Wa co ursuit for annexation and are confident that the matter can be succes-TMly resolved to the satisfaction of everyone. .a - sincerely, KENAI NATIVES ASSOCIATION, INC. Katherine W.

As a result of that meeting the Commission looked into two parcels in the area that are city -owned, Lawton Acres and Lot 1 Spur S/D and asks that the following recommendation be passed on to you: The Commission feels that the two city -owned parcels in the general vicinity of Walker Lane are unacceptable for the following reasons: 1) children having to cross a busy street (Walker Lane or Lawton Drive) to get to the park 2) as HEA power poles are on Lot 1 Spur S/D they present a problem with placing any equipment on this location - service trucks would need to cross any portion of this buffer strip and could damage landscaping and play equipment 3) power poles in the vicnity of children playing is not desirable for several reasons 4) do not want to create additional maintenance problems S) Lawton Strip is not suitable due to the proximity of the Spur Highway 6) do not want to create any further pocket parks at this time. A copy of the minutes of that meeting are attached. ial 1 KENAI PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION October 11, 1988 Page 3 6. OLD BUSINESS a. Request for Release of Lands - Miller & Baily (see memo from Mayor Williams) Director McGillivray presented maps depicting the lands that had been discussed previously. The motions to correct the minutes have taken care of this item. 7. NEW BUSINESS a. Request for Park - Walker Street Area - Mavor Williams Director McGillivray informed the Commission that the original request was for some lands which are now in private hands. Several years ago the land was all city -owned and could have been subdivided to accommodate this request. At the time the park was first discussed years ago, the concept of pocket parks was discussed and the decision was that there were enough parks. There is one small parcel that is owned by Homer Electric that Mayor Williams had considered, however, that would present a problem with possible high voltage equipment. Also mentioned was the Lawton Strip. The only other land available would be the strip adjacent to Walker Lane from the Spur Highway to Tern which is the easement for the HEA power poles. The Commission discussed creating a park with some play equipment, clearing and grass, however, with the power poles there and the need for the large trucks to service the poles, the general feeling is that any development would stand to be damaged. MOTION: Commissioner Sandahl moved that the Parks & Recreation Commission examine the possibility of establishing a small pocket park at the end of Walker Lane, come up with a basic design, and _request that the engineering department cost out the equipment needed to furnish the park so that the area may be better served, seconded by Commissioner Massie. The Commission wished to list the objections to a park in that area: 1) kids having to cross a busy street to get to it, 2) • equipment and development stand to be damaged by HEA equipment working on the poles, 3) power poles in vicinity of children playing not desirable, 4) do not want to create additional maintenance problems 5) Lawton Strip is not suitable due to proximity of the Spur Highway, 6) do not want additional parks at this time. If the City were to put a park in for Walker Lane, then Woodland, Redoubt, etc. will want -a park also. - - VOTE: Motion failed unanimously by roll call vote r --I 1791-1991 CITY OF KENI.. owl , „ Del monoA<oo KENA�,ALABKA aoa1� TIMMMAaaa-MS Ir FAX OOT-283.3014 „ j MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Williams and Council Members FROM: Parke & Recreation Commission -� DATE: October 17, 1988 �E ¢� SUBJECT: Release of City -Owned Lands i In response to a memo from Mayor Williams regarding the motions made pertaining to the release of city -owned lands, the Commission felt that their intent would be clear if a correction were made to the minutes of the meeting of September 20th.

Woody Cole - Failure to Uphold City Landecage Ordinance 6: k Woody Cole, Vice Chairman of the Landscaping/Site Plan Review Board: It is my understanding that we elect all Council members and Mayor. I also understand the balance of City Hall are either appointed, contracted, or hired. I have not been able to ascertain the right of any appointed, contracted, or hired official to circumvent or blatantly disregard the Kenai Municipal Code. Especially if they don't happen to agree with it. That's :. why we have a democratic process, public hearings and elections. If city officials don't agree with portions of the Kenai Municipal Code, or find they are not workable, they do have the same democratic process available to them. They do not have the right to selectively choose which portions will be followed and enforced and which will be disregarded. You, the Council have the ultimate KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 2 responsibility to assure the voters, the taxpayers, the citizens, public at large, and yes even the visitors that the Kenai Municipal Code is followed, that our basic rights of expression are not put up or. some shelf and looked at some many years from now. I'm referring specifically at Title 14 which is the Landscape/Site Plan Review Board. In a nutshell, it says that in order to build or make any improvements on any lot within the City designated industrial and business, that a site plan will be provided and will be reviewed before a building permit will be issued. I'm not totally sure how many building permits have been issued at this time without that process. The Windmill Restaurant is one, McDonalds, and I'm not sure about the Kambe Theater. They are currently in violation of KMC 14.25.020 which specifically states, "it shall be unlawful for any person to construct, erect, or maintain any structure, building, fence or improvement including landscaping, parking or other facility on property designated as commercial tracts unless such improvements are constructed or reconstructed in a manner consistent with the approved plan. There has been no approved plan. Building process should be public. I feel very strongly about that. I think there needs to be an investigation into this to find out what exactly it is. As I see it, we have a choice, some of them may be drastic. One is to rescind 14.25 through the proper public hearing process. Remove the offending officials and I think that would be a real poor choice. All of the public officials we have do an excellent job. And last, to assure the public that this hypocrisy at City Hall is forever, and will be a thing of the past. A closing comment I'd like to make on this is simply, from the tourist comments and the residents, visitors, even people in Soldotna, they all comment on how great Kenai looks. One of the over riding concepts of the landscape ordinance and the beautification committee is still the pride in the community and hopefully, on a voluntary basis, enhance the City accordingly. One of the target areas was the Carrs area. I'd like to point out, that on their own accord Carrs has added a lot of landscaping in front. This is exactly what we have been trying to instill. We don't want to legislate in that everybody has to do something, but we need a way of getting it started. And now that we're starting to get some momentum, lets not derail it for the sake of perhaps misunderstanding or circumvention. Councilwoman Bailie: I'd like to know the Administration's comments. City Manager Brighton: Primarily, I guess I'm basically responsible -because I suggested to the Building Inspector that perhaps we ought not continue to follow that section of the code on the basis that the Supreme Court has ruled _ It is illegal to hold a building permit hostage for construction f or other ancillary affects around that building that were not substantive to the building itself. Now, obviously I'm not legal KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 3 council for the City but it would appear to me that if we held the building codes permit, and the individual had met all the requirements for the building itself, that we would come under the ruling of the Supreme Court that says that that is a unlawful taking or restriction on an individual's property. But that was the reason. If it followed up and we held our building permits hostage because something else was not done on the property or away from the property we would be in violation of that Supreme Court ruling and subject to whatever the consequences might be _. 4 under those circumstances. Woody Cole: Before the attorney issues a comment on that, part of . - - -.. the requirements here have -nothing to do with holding hostage and z� have nothing to do with, as you said, sundry items, they have to do with snow, removal, proper drainage, proper lighting, safety features. If the attorney does agree that this is, in fact the way it is, he is probably the only attorney anywhere in the country that does agree with that because most all cities have n continued to support this. Everything that I've read from the National Homebuilders Association, from the publications that I find in the City Manager's office, I believe it named something ,. about municipal. ' City Attorney Rogers: I'm not acquainted with your research you haven't given me any citation at this time, however, there is exposure on behalf of municipalities in enforcing the provisions l� similar to what we have. It's been noted in the Wall Street .¢ Journal as well as case law. The case law is in a state of flux :j right now. So I guess basically I'll have to take exception to your legal interpretation and indicate that there is exposure on behalf of the city insofar as conditioning a building permit upon 4 beautification and upon certain other unrelated purposes to the actual building of the structure. From an economic standpoint, some of the smaller buildings, it wouldn't be feasible for them to resist, however, that's not the criteria that we should use as a city in making decisions. I only heard of this late this afternoon. You've chosen to come to the Council in public meetings, I'm not aware that you've come to my office with a complaint or to the City Manager's office. Certainly, when it was brought to my attention this afternoon, I conferred with the City Manager and we agreed that we need to take a look at it. Either rescind the ordinance, rewrite the ordinance, or in some manner either hold it in abeyance or enforce it. In view of the various rulings that come down showing that, in fact, action such as is set forth in our code has been subject to litigation and has resulted in a finding by some courts of condemnation_of_-the_person's property to the extent that they have to expend additional sums to comply with non -building criteria in order to get a building permit. I would concur with the City Manager in that there -is exposure. if you -have some authority otherwise I would appreciate you submitting it to the office. We do have McQuillan and various other legal treatise you're welcome to look at. ,. KENAI CITY COUNCIL — MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 4 Woody Cole: I have no quarrel at all with your interpretation or anybody else', what I am concerned with is the fact that the ordinance is on the books, and if there are legal problems to it, why has it not been resolved rather than just shoved in the back room and not gone before public process and re -interpreted at the whims of whoever. This is what I feel is wrong. City Attorney Rogers: I take exception to your insinuations that it is shoved in the back rooms. I believe that the City Manager indicated that he has dealt with the situation in a couple instances administratively. It's now being brought to my attention, you obviously chose to bring it into a public forum rather than discuss it with us, that'-s you're prerogative. I'm sure the Council will direct us to make a report back to Council regarding the viable alternatives that we see in our recommendations in dealing with the problem. Woody Cole: I'm sorry that this is the first you've heard of it because this is not the first that I have mentioned it. City Attorney Rogers: I'm not in the permitting business, it's brought to my attention often times when there is a problem, obviously there's a problem. Councilwoman Monfor: I agree with Mr. Cole, there seems to be a problem. We worked for a long time getting that ordinance on the books and I'm stressed at the fact that we didn't know that the Supreme Court has said that perhaps our ordinance isn't any good and because of the work that was done by the Landscape Review Board, and the Beautification Committee this town speaks for itself and is a model for other communities within the State of Alaska. I would hope that if it needs to be rewritten we do that immediately, that people who are building the buildings know that we still have a landscaping ordinance that is still in effect and they still must adhere to it and that matters like this are dealt with when they come up and not pushed aside so to speak, hoping they'll just go away. People like Mr. Cole will be out there knowing what's going on. Councilwoman Bailie: I don't think we should ever lose sight of the memory of the bowling alley which we had some problems with, one site plan was presented before Planning & Zoning and a totally different structure was built. I think another thing that we need to keep in mind is the fact that we have people within this community who feel strongly about how this community looks and are willing to volunteer their time to serve on boards. I think we in the administration part, if they find that there are problems with a certain area, then they owe it to these people who are volunteering theirtime _ to explain- .to them. -why_ they, are circumventing certain areas of the code. As well as they owe it to this Council. In addition, I think that this particular ordinance was modeled after the one in Anchorage, very closely to it and it was not the t r N 1 -- --- --M fY� ■ KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 5 building permit if I remember, it was the certificate of occupancy. I think it is important that we remember this and I „-, ..4 agree wholeheartedly with what Councilwoman Monfor says, it did take a while to get this on the books, we do not stand out there _.-.. like the lone ranger. Soldotna has a very similar ordinance, Anchorage has one, and a lot of other communities. I would hate to see us abandon it totally. I appreciate Mr. Cole bringing.it to all of our attentions because apparently it would not have been brought to our attention had we not chosen this way to do it. City Attorney Rogers: I'm not aware that we are meeting any resistance from those building, I don't know why, I assume we will find out, but I am aware of the exposure that all municipalities face. The fact that Anchorage had one, -they had a tow ordinance up there too that somebody's going to nail them on. So just because they're big city doesn't mean they always do right. Councilwoman Bailie: That's true. But just because they're big city that doesn't mean that all their ordinances are going to go by the wayside either. City Manager Brighton: It was my intention in the interim to ". " prevent the City from being held liable under this set of circumstance, and obviously I think there's probably a way that we r. can work something out that will do what the Council wants to do without putting the city in a liability situation. Councilwoman Swarner: I would like to thank Mr. Cole for bringing y. this to our attention. I'm upset about it because we just found out about it now after the building this summer. Have any other buildings that have been issued? City Manager Brighton: Other than the one's he mentioned I don't know. Mayor Williams:- We want to thank you for bringing this to our attention and we will definitely have administration look into the matter and perhaps bring forward some case law or something pertaining to the structure of the code in the event that it has 'i to be modified. Added Item: { Mayor Williams: While on the subject of building, the - - administration has arranged to have Mr. Hackney, our Building -"_ Inspector designated as the Fire Marshall, inspector on commercial building as opposed to having to transport plans to Anchorage to the Fire Marshall's office for review. This saves a developer considerable time in getting his plans approved and his building -. constructed. He has also been designated as the person in charge ' of handicap access for our area. Councilwoman O'Reilly: Don't we have someone with that -- -------- - designation within the City? City Manager Brighton: Thisie a - i restricted Fire Marshall area. It is from a commercial new Jl: m -- - - k •- -- --- .._. �d1 I i KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 6 construction standpoint. The fire department has fire protection " and inspection in which they do all present structure. They also will review plans of a new structure, but this was to avoid the „ unnecessary trip to Anchorage. Mayor Williams: Also on the Building Inspector's desk is the plan to double the capacity of the Kambe Theater. 2. Chamber of Commerce - Wildlife Viewing Area r This will be in regards to item H-3. ' } Fred Braun introduced Rhonda Webb, the new Executive Director and Manager of the Ohamber� _Mrs._ Webb passed out letters to the Council detailing commitments on behalf of the Chamber. Fred Braun: There was some concern that the project was not moving as rapidly as it should. With this updated sheet I think it can be submitted and the City is in the position to receive the $90,000 grant from the State Division of Parks for the - - - -± construction of the viewing platform for the Kenai River Flats. Mr. Braun detailed the figures for the Council. We would like to begin construction as soon as the ground freezes, hopefully the middle of November or December to drive the spikes. I would like .,'. to list some of the agencies that are involved in it; Chamber of Commerce, Audubon Society, Sierra Club, Ducks Unlimited, Dept. of Transportation, U.S. Fish and Wildlife, State Division of Parks, .. State Department of Fish and Game, and the Kenai Conservation Society. The Chamber does appreciate the support of the City of - Kenai. This does not include several other donated items. Mr. Braun: This would be the first phase of three and should be the toe hold that we are looking for. The Division of Parks has just completed it's mylar signage that will be put in place in the spring of 189. It is approximately $20,000 for this type of sign which include sea life, caribou, volcanos, six different topics in }. all. u, h C. PUBLIC HEARINGS -I - 1. Resolution 88-83 - Request of Legislature - Development of f . Senior Citizen Independent Living Program - $6.5 Million 1, MOTION: Councilwoman Monfor moved approval of Resolution 88-83, seconded i by Councilwoman Bailie. _ --" -- -- Councilwoman Monfor: It was brought up last night, by a lady who is married to a retired FAA person who was under the impression that there were -restrictions on that land for -any presidential use and I would hope that that would be researched. City Manager Brighton: Not to my knowledge, but we will check the title. 1•, r) l KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 7 i Councilwoman Bailie: A suggestion, in the third whereas it speaks to utilities, I think it might help if we put a dollar figure in there because it would show that we are putting up a goodly portion of the project and it might help in going to Juneau to help the legislators make up their mind. City Manager Brighton: To Keith, is there a way to calculate an amount at this point? PW Director Kornelis: I'm not sure that a dollar amount would be that great. Water and sewer service is right there so you're talking a very minimal amount. The connecting road would be part of the grant we're asking for, and unless you want to discuss the road to the Senior Center, there would be minimal cost. Mayor Williams: Unless you count the value of the land which is in access of $100,000. City Manager Brighton: In order to get that figure we probably should get an appraisal so we would be in the ball park. Do you want us to get a figure and have it available at the next meeting? Councilwoman Swarner: I don't think a dollar figure is necessary but I do believe there are some seniors who would like to testify. Mayor Williams: I support this project 100%, 1 just want to let You know that during Saturday's Kenai Peninsula Caucus meeting I took the artists rendering of the project down and explained it to the Caucus, they agreed to bring it on to the agenda for their next meeting and vote on the resolution then. However, we may need to talk about. Last week, during discussions with the Governor and Mr. Smith of the Department of Commerce who expressed concerns about the economic viability of major capital improvement projects through the CIP funding process. Would Council consider breaking this into two basic parts of the same resolution, asking for the money for the expansion and the other for the development of the congregate housing. It has been said to me in no uncertain terms that in order to go with a project like this it is going to take a tremendous amount of legislative support. Perhaps if we offer an alternative the resolution might look better. This is only a suggestion. Councilwoman Bailie: In the past we have looked at many of our requests in just this manner. We have gone down there and "worn the white hats" and what has it garnered us, not a lot. When you're talking about this particular resolution the last whereas says it all. I don't think people understand the inequity that is existing today what it costs to be in a pioneer home versus what it costs to be in a nursing home. This is going to show the State of Alaska that there is an alternate method and that it can be economically feasible. I think if-we--break-it up our -chances are very good that we'll only get a portion of it. Mayor Williams: I put that out as a suggestion and understand your feelings. I will work just as hard to get this project through as any that I've ever worked on and I will do everything in my power but I do want the Council to understand that this r- KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 8 particular year, as much as the last two years, its going to be „ very difficult. Councilwoman Bailie: What feeling did you get from the Caucus _ regarding this being a peninsula wide service. Mayor Williams: I think they were comfortable with it. The Caucus isn't represented by all of the communities on the peninsula, I understand that Homer has ha$ some reservations and were not at the meeting. I also understand that Homer is looking at some type of elderly .� " housing and may be in competition with ours. Most definitely they ct are not in the advance stage of planning and design that we are. Councilwoman Monfor: If the Caucus isn't going to meet until -- ---- after the AML meeting in November, and we're trying to decide if this is going to be one of our projects or an area wide project, i. does that not put a crimp in what we're doing? { Mayor Williams: No, we discussed it as an area wide project based i on the studies that have been done. Councilwoman Monfor: You want something out of us by the end of this month, how can we send something to Juneau without that decision. Mayor Williams: I think what we need to do is pass our resolution and depend on the Caucus to come along with theirs. The `.. legislature won't be in session until January. AML is going to - formulate their package at that meeting and the Caucus will meet ,- prior to AML. The legislature will recognize it as coming through the Caucus. Councilwoman O'Reilly: I think we should go ahead with our own resolution as well. In addition, I might suggest that if there . are any capital projects money available on a state wide basis, the legislature is going to be looking at all of those with a very careful scrutiny and the first consideration is economic opportunity or advantages to the community. Can we add another whereas to speak to the economics. - } City Manager -Brighton: one of the problems with that is it would �. probably make Seward, Homer, and Soldotna more competitive in order to acquire it into their area as opposed to continued support from those areas to put it in the Kenai area. To relate to the Homer situation that I was unaware of, you must remember .i that the State of Alaska paid for the survey and the consultant x. who did the survey for the peninsula and their conclusions were that a home of this nature was needed on the peninsula and the ideal location is in Kenai. This was a survey conducted with state money and for someone else to get the state to fund another home of this nature in another art of the p peninsula, would appear -=,- .------- - --- to me -to be counter productive with state dollars. Mayor Williams opened the item to public comments._ Betty Warren, Box 116 Kenai. I am not a resident of the city but I am a tax payer. We have been working on this project for about ` 1 i P 0 so KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 9 five years. We started out looking for a pioneer home. We had a picture of Jette Petersen on the front of the newspaper in a bed outdoors with a caption that read please bring me home or get me 4 in a home. Jette is in the Anchorage pioneer home. I know finances are bad, but the need is critical. There are so many persons we try to help. This is an important project for the merchants, for the beautiful new building in Kenai, and most important to the older persons who have lived here and want to stay here and not have to leave. 71, Pioneer homes probably are not economically viable any more. The Juneau home had a hard time and ended up being run by private enterprise similar to the,other homes. Congregate housing is a ( , project that will allow the City of Kenai to continue to support --- seniore like you've always done. We will continue to work on behalf of the project by contacting legislators as we have always done. There are people writing for the Senior Voice to help. Councilwoman Monfor: If we were fortunate enough to have this facility constructed are there any other costs that you could see the City saving in other senior programs such as perhaps the meals on wheels or anything? Answer yes. That is a good example as well as other areas. Mayor Williams: I took the liberty of taking the artists -� rendering over to the senior center to be placed on display, it seems more appropriate. VOTE: j Motion passed by unanimous consent D. COMMISSION/COMMITTEE REPORTS 1. Council on Aging Councilwoman Swarner: A committee has been meeting with the architect regarding the expansion of the dining facilities and there will be another meeting of Friday and it's progressing well. 2. Airport Commission Councilwoman O'Reilly announced that there will be a work session tomorrow with the Economic Development Commission. 3. Economic Development Commission Mayor Williams: You have associated with your packet a copy of j} the detachment_ study.. _The Commission and consultant is. be commended on the work that has been put forth in the development of this study. This is not an answer to the question of whether - - - -- _ - or not to detach, but rather a synopsis of potential events and questions to be asked which would help with that decision. Prior to this report we had little knowledge of the impacts on all KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 10 levels. The Commission will be going over this report at their <� meeting of October 13. As mentioned the two commissions will be meeting tomorrow, the purpose is to begin exploring the potentials of marketing the infrastructure that would be put into place. The Governor, along with Fairbanks, Anchorage and the federal government have been working towards getting new airport industry going. Anchorage is being designated as one of six gateway cities for foreign countries which will open doors for direct flights to Asian countries. It is my thought that Kenai can become a part of it. What is a small amount to Anchorage would be a large amount to Kenai. Seward hired Bill Gates as their marketing director for their ports. a. Harbor Commission Barry Eldridge: No report, however, I had not heard that we were to be a part of the meeting tomorrow night. Councilwoman Monfor: I was a recipient of one of the surveys that were sent out -and I would like to say that it was very lengthy and does not address set petters which upset me because there are a lot of set netters. I think there was a large area missed by not including more portions directed towards them. There were two pages in there that were time consuming and fairly complicated dealing with figures and I feel that many fishermen would bypass. 1 I question how accurate the survey is going to be and I think the administration and Harbor Commission should take a look at it because it may not be what you were looking for. Barry Eldridge: I believe he patterned it after the survey done in Homer which don't have many set netters. PW Director Kornelis: The Harbor Commission did review the survey before it went out. Councilwoman Monfor: I'm sure they did, but I think it would be good for everyone to look at. Mayor Williams: It was pleasing to see the net results at this point in the year's operation of the harbor facility plus the creation of jobs during the summer plus $61,000 net. S. Library Commission Councilwoman Monfor: We had a meeting last night so the minutes will not be in the packet. I would like to remind everyone of the town meeting tomorrow night at the library. The Commission had discussed having a student representative and we are finding_ that this is a difficult task._ Probably we will not be seeing a student on the commission in the future. The student appointed last year was never able to come to a meeting. The Commission feels that if they do not have business, they won't meet, saving the City time and money. L i KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 11 Mayor Williams: Speaking of student representatives, I have only " had one application for the Library Commission and it is not from a resident of the City. 6. Recreation Commission Director McGillivray: A couple of things not included in the minutes which were in your packet; the motions that were made were not reflective of the discussion and the motion made. We will be meeting next Tuesday and we will again discuss it so that there - will be no question. a The minutes reference a recommendation that a dollar fee be put on for students using the weight room. We have stayed away from any fees on the students for facilities and a reduced fee for raquetball. However, there are groups of young people getting a. into the weight room not in there for weight lifting, we've had some equipment disappear and possibly vandalized. The idea of the ••-- fee would tend to discourage improper use. I am assuming that it should be a vote of Council and any fees usually have been. � u Councilwoman Swarner asked what is the dollar fee? Director McGillivray answered $1.00 per day. A shower is included. Councilwoman Monfor asked if $1.00 was enough. Director McGillivray answered that we will find out if this approach -� doesn't stop the congregating. MOTION: ` Councilwoman Monfor moved to establish a fee of $1.00 per day for t - use of the weight room, seconded by Councilwoman O'Reilly. VOTE: Motion passed by unanimous consent Councilwoman Swarner asked about the stair climber. Director McGillivray answered that he has had several conversations with the provider who recommended that we not go with the specific equipment we had asked for which was the $4,000. He recommended the same type of equipment but at a price of approximately $2,100. The reason is based on an unsupervised room, the computer portion - would be a target. i - Councilwoman Bailie: Regarding your memo to the Commission for ' pocket parks on Walker Lane, this was discussed several years ago when I was on the Commission and I think there could be a problem. At that time there were so many areas within the City that this concept could_ be used in, the Commission needs to discuss the . _ entire concept. If they decide to p go with the pocket park perhaps we should look at the adopt a park program that is working in Anchorage. I would like to see the Commission further discuss - - — this before as you suggested having the engineering department - , come up with a plan. If we do it, we're going to have to be looking at more personnel to take care of these parks. f; 4f ). A; KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 12 Mayor Williams: I have no objection to beginning some sort of adopt a park program if that is what it takes. I know we do -have a couple of pocket parks in town now. In looking over the real estate there is only place one could go is midway down Walker Lane. I agree with Councilwoman Bailie that the entire subject ,t needs to be looked at. The neighborhood has grown and it is a `"r` `"" ° young population with emall children. �t Councilwoman Swarner: The area at the end of Walker bane does t need to be cleaned up, is that City land? Answer no. Councilwoman Swarner: My A-H group happened to be cleaning up Walker Lane last year and there is old garbage. That would be a great place for a kids group or a service club to make this a project. r 7. Planning & Zoning Commission i ' Councilman Measles reported that he was at a Council work session and not at the last meeting, however, the minutes are in the packet. Chairman Smalley: The two main items that came up were items which are not dealt with in the code and are the RV parks and bed & breakfasts. There are some Council members here that were on the Commission when we first began dealing with the RV question. :.-:._•,'' At our next meeting we have a work session scheduled to begin a recommendation to Council. Also, the Comprehensive Plan will be on the agenda and will be a longer process. Mayor Williams: You still have one vacancy on the Commission? Answer yes. Mayor Williams: I am trying to garner more applications for you. c Councilwoman Bailie: I would like to suggest Duane Bannock who I has shown great interest in the City. While I have not discussed this with him he would be an asset and I think he would. And Don McCloud who is employed by the Borough maintenance department but did serve thirteen years on the Borough Assembly while a resident of Seward. 8. Misc. Commissions/Committees None E.

Councilwoman - "`---' — Bailie: I was concerned that in the appraisal and surveying of KENAI CITY COUNCIL, - MINUTES t OCTOBE:R 5, 1988 PAGE 15 } these lands I was hoping that the City would keep the option to choose the appraiser themselves. Apparently that is not going to be the case. City Manager Brighton: No, probably we will retain -the right to chose, on a particular bid basis. Very seldom do we get the request for platting of tidelands or for real estate for lease or sale because most of it has already been platted. However, the reason for this particular measure is that there was a time it only cost us $150. The FAA has insisted upon -more critique from the appraiser which makes the appraisals longer and more time consuming. They have also insisted upon a review by MIA of that appraisal which has run the cost of an appraisal up to approximately $1200. Councilwoman Bailie: This question was posed to me last week after this was suggested by an individual who wanted to know if we are allowing an individual who wanted to lease lands to choose the appraiser. My answer to him was I was sure we were not, but apparently today we did. City Manager Brighton: That was a special circumstance. MOTION: Councilman Measles moved to introduce Ordinance 1290-88, seconded by Councilwoman Bailie VOTE: - Motion passed by unanimous consent City Manager Brighton: The reason we wouldn't permit them to hire their own appraiser is because they are setting the price on the real estate.

Discussion - Student Ad Hoc Member for Council Mayor Williams: I received a call and correspondence with the new high school teacher in charge, Mr. Phelan who is very interested in furthering the cause of student participation in student government. I do not know the mechanics of it, if this has ever been done before, if we want to get involved with it, and I want the feelings of the Council. Councilman Measles: As an ad hoc member I'm not sure the Council can appoint to an elected body. As an observer it may work out and the whole class can do that similar to the procedure used by Mr. Ackerly. City Manager Brighton: Ad hoc has a legal connotation to it. Councilman Measles: I would have a problem with us doing it in that manner. Commissions would not cause a problem as Council appoints members to all of those bodies. Councilwoman Monfor: The school board has an ad hoc student who is elected from the students within the peninsula when they have their meeting of the student body president and it is addressed in their policies. I would agree with Councilman Measles and would question how long someone would be willing to stay with us. What we do does not pertain to what they do, as where the school board does pertain to them. I would say the way Mr. Ackerly handled it is the best. - - Councilwoman O'Reilly: Another suggestion to be investigated and one of the positive effects of this would be involvement of a i it KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 17 number of students and if we negotiated an ad hoc member that would not happen. Perhaps you could suggest a r.ntating official i observer program. 5F. Mayor Williams: A continuous line of participation by the student group. I'm finding through the school system a great amount of interest but of course this is election year. 11. Discussion - Release of Lands for Sale - Kenai River & Beaver Creek Areas Mayor Williams: As indicated by memo to the Recreation Commission, their negative motion being voted on with a negative vote cancelled out the motion, however the following paragraph indicates that they did not want us to take any positive action on the sale. I feel it needs to be opened to discussion. Administrative Assistant Howard gave a summary and outline with maps. Mayor Williams: Isn't that area mostly wetlands? City Manager Brighton: One area is a great deal more than the other and that is the one on Angler Drive. The other one has a substantial amount of hillside. There is no road access to either property, the only access available is the river or by acquiring an easement from private property owners. Councilwoman Monfor: It wasn't very clear in the minutes, why do these people want to buy this land and why does the Recreation Commission objection to selling it. Councilwoman Bailie: It is ideal habitat for snow geese, eandhill cranes, caribou, etc. Councilwoman Monfor: Why do the people want to buy the land? Administrative Assistant Howard: It was never indicated to me why Mr. Miller requested the land for sale. Dana had mentioned that he said he had played there as a child. These lands would go to public notice and he might not be the high bidder, however he would have the option of first refusal. Director McGillivray: In short, there are some members of the Commission that do a great deal of fishing and hunting and their feeling was that especially the area that Mr. Miller wanted is in an area of a lot of wildlife habitat. The other area is the area that is what they call the Beaver Creek slough and goes clear through and they felt that if it were opened up it would be desirable to open up for a large increase in traffic. It also could eliminate the area for good fishing and duck hunting. Councilwoman Swarner: I would like to hear from the Planning Chairman.- --- (_-. - L KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 18 Chairman Smalley: I have spoken to two members of the Recreation Commission and we felt the same, that is a prime habitat area. This is one of the most heavily fished king salmon area on the river. Last week during the high tides much of this was under water. The hillside is steep. The Commission had mixed feelings about it, I think it was a 3 to 2 vote. We also discussed accessibility accept through private property and felt that somewhere down the line in the future the City may have a use. The same holds true for the Beaver Creek parcel. The petitioner in this case was a person that lived in the area and we had no understanding as to why he was petitioning, perhaps he wanted to leave it in it's natural state. one of the things that came up was a recommendation that when people coming -in want to petition lands be made available for sale that they come and present a reason why. When we made our motion we phrased it to show that we supported the Recreation Commission decision that it not be made available for sale. Mayor Williams: In the last paragraph of the letter from the administration is states that, "barring any affirmative action taken by Council by ordinance to authorise sale, the city administration will reject the applications". Council agreed with the two Commissions. 12. Discussion - "Welcome to_Kenai" Sion Councilwoman Monfor: The biggest thing about this that bothers me is that the person that made this complaint didn't even come before us the night that he had the opportunity to do so. I felt that since we had already told the other person to go ahead, basically he had the bid and go ahead and do the sign and I find out now he can't do it. MOTION: Councilwoman Monfor moved to separate the cost of *:he sign and the cost of the installation and proceed with Mr. Sherman There was no second to the motion. City Attorney Rogers: I assume that this may happen. Upon reflection by the public works, they may be able to do a portion of that.- or if not, another can do the installation and that can accomplish your purpose. My apologies to Council, I was in preparation and was not present during that period of time. Yes, I think administration can proceed along those lines. City Attorney Rogers and Councilwoman Monfor discussed possible solutions to the problem of accepting the Sherman sign, City Manager Brighton: One of the problems is the $8500 price. Number two in the memo from the attorney is a quote of a case in which they indicated a sign was not a professional situation. i. j MUM .J.. IA_._„_.,_ KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES 1: OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 19 1 1 Councilwoman Monfor: I disagree with that. City Attorney Rogers: I Then if it's the Council's desire to go ahead and call it professional services it is Council's prerogative. Mayor Williams: We have agreed with Mr. Sherman that his design of that sign is sufficient under our cause and we've agreed with the type of installation for that sign. Later on I will discuss with you a request by another artist to sell the designs to the City. It seems that perhaps Mr. Sherman could indeed sell his design work to the City and then have the City contract with him to install his design, if Council so desires. As Councilwoman ;. Monfor so aptly pointed out, Mr. Sherman and Mr. Stephan were both I scheduled to be here and Mr. Stephan did not appear. i Councilwoman Bailie: I think administration has direction from Council and I would ask that a resolution or ordinance be brought forward that would change the amount from $6500 to perhaps $10,000 that would have to go to bid. It's been several years since that has been changed and I think if we look around things certainly I - - - - have gone up and this would give us some latitude in making j decisions such as this. " City Manager Brighton: From the administration standpoint, we have had that subject under discussion from the public works and ,. 'j finance department standpoint. That figure has not been raised in the last ten years as I recall. Finance Director Brown: When i Betty Glick last served on the Council she was instrumental in changing it from $5,000. I can't tell you exactly when that was. t City Manager Brighton: You're talking about a 5% per year appreciation, we've held that figure for six or seven years and j perhaps the time has come to raise it to $10,000. It was going to I be our recommendation to Council that they do that, however if you feel uncomfortable with it, we don't have a reason to push it. You are going to be approving anything over $1,000 anyway. a Mayor Williams: It is Council's wish that you came back with an _ ordinance raising the minimum bid line from $6500 to $10,000. i - { Mayor Williams: We talked about red for the main letters and I need to say that I am opposed to that color. Councilwoman Monfor: -- - What colors would you suggest. Mayor Williams: We need something - other than red. Councilwoman O'Reilly: Do we still have a copy of the artist's - rendering? Mayor Williams: I believe so. Councilwoman O'Reilly: '! I would like to take another look at it. Councilwoman Swarner: Didn't the Beautification Committee decide on the colors? Answer -- ---- --� yes. ----- --- ---'" - Councilwoman Bailie: The Beautification Committee felt very �} comfortable with the design that was presented and the colors. If I might, sometimes the artists themselves have a better feel for L r KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGGE 20 this than individuals do. I hear what you're saying Mayor, I think it's difficult to get a consensus of seven people what you like or don't like. The seal itself would be in gold, the letters in red, and the bottom would be blue. The background is going to be the distressed grey. I think we need to look at his track record as far as some of the other signs he's done in the area. I think we can cal-1 him an artist. His comment was that he felt this was going to be a very impressive looking sign. when you look at the colors of the Kenai Kardinals we're talking red and then incorporating the red, white, and blue to go along with the bicentennial. Mayor Williams: I have no objections to the artist's design, it's just the color. Councilwoman O'Reilly. I think we have to rely on the Beautification's judgement on this. VOTE: Motion passed by unanimous consent 13. Discussion - Street Lights Mayor Williams: This matter was brought to our attention during a work session regarding capital improvements. MOTION: Councilwoman Swarner moved to purchase the street lights There was no second to the motion. Councilwoman Swarner: I would prefer to go with the public works recommendation and delete those of the bus drivers. Finance Director Brown discussed the budget. Mayor Williams: Any new street lights now will require a reappropriation from the general fund. Councilwoman Monfor: I think the idea of the City purchasing yard lights may not be a bad idea. Councilwoman Bailie: Would HEA let us do it? Councilman Measles: My suggestion was not that the City buy them and people come and get them, but rather if someone wants one have them contact HEA, have it installed and the City will reimburse them. If HEA will install a yard light for $29 it is cheaper than putting up a street light. Councilwoman Monfor: Could Keith research this and come back? Councilwoman O'Reilly: Wouldn't we have to do something to assure the location of the lights? City Manger Brighton: There would need to be some restrictions placed on it to prevent every one in town from putting up yard lights. The catch-all here is when they are going to be required to pay for the electricity there -will be __...._. -. .._ _. more reluctance. Councilwoman O'Reilly: How about if we write a letter to everyone who own these properties we have outlined in these memos from Keith asking if they would be willing to do this. L KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 21 City Manager Brighton: I think the public works department needs to go to HER first, bring that information back to you and see if it still sounds reasonable and then at that point follow the suggestions. Council agreed to wait until public works returns with results of e meeting with HER. H-14 Added Item: Capital Proiects Mayor Williams: Regarding sewer :.ines to Thompson Park. It may be worth while for the City of Kenai to ask for $2 million instead of $1 million if we were to garner $1 million for a sewer project we have $500,000 that have been reappropriated that could be used. We also have another $200,000 that we could pull out of the sewer plant fund. It has been indicated that the extension of the main line from Swires Road to the Eagles would run $1.2 million. I would like to see us hold back $100,000 to take care of cleaning up the water. The public works department should be just about ready to present us with a plan. Councilwoman Monfor: Is administration still formulating a survey to send to the Thompson Park residents? City Manager Brighton: No, we are not as yet. If you would like it formulated we can start tomorrow or the next day. We had it under discussion at the last meeting. Councilwoman Monfor: I think we should send it out because if they're not willing to pay then I can't see taking it out there. H-15 Added Item: Councilwoman Monfor: We had a Bicentennial Convention and Visitor's Bureau meeting on Monday. They will have at least a two paragraph statement saying what those monies will be used for, probably by the first of next week. I. ADMINISTRATION REPORTS 1. Mayor a. The Harbor Commission is changing their meeting dates to the second and fourth Monday of the month. The next meeting is October 17th which has a public hearing already set. Barry Eldridge: We are trying to get it set for about ten days prior to the Council meeting to give staff time to get material between Commission and Council. b. Landscape Review Board is in need of two persons. Recreation Commission -needs two and you have approved those. - c— Regarding the memo concerning the Economic Recovery Project meeting on 10/14/88. One of the Council members expressed in P -' KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 PAGE 22 concern regarding attendance at that meeting both from being worthwhile and from the economic standpoint. The memo stated that the person attending would be reimbursed for coats for attending. Mayor Williams: My concern about the entire concept of the project is that unless we are there we are not protecting ourselves and whatever occurs there, and if all goes according to the plans, it could benefit Kenai. The intent is to present a ilist of capital projects to the state that would include an �} infrastructure within communities which would lead to more jobs and industry. I do -plan on attending that meeting to see if they get it off the ground. Councilwoman Bailie: Over the years the City has always used the funds that we have obtained from tho state for the same things that this group is forming now. one of our priority items is the same thing that they have gone ahead and spent their monies on. We are going to be going up there and encouraging them to be ' getting things that we already have and they're going to be discouraging things from the legislature that we really want. We _._ need to keep this in mind. Mayor Williams: I am aware of that and have had lengthy discussion about it with Mr. O'Reilly. We are all of the opinion that it may very well be a ploy to garner more funds for another city to the north. However, if we were able to garner $2 million to enhance the airport to draw in the P-3 project, then it would-" be worth it. The cultural center would have to be presented on such a level as to indicate good economic benefits package. . d. There is a Economic Development Commission and EDD meeting 10/14/88. City Manager Brighton: The EDD will be able to discuss everything of interest to the Council, EDC, and Planning & Zoning on what they think their task is. They will be discussing things that are of an area wide nature. e. I attended the Caucus meeting on Saturday, it was well attended by legislators and their representatives. rf. National Guard Commander in Anchorage has contacted Mayor Williams regarding a mission of the National Guard that may be 'f tied with a visit to the Pacific Command headquarters for the - _ Navy. I am having-EDD staff members contact Admiral Hayes and Hernandez to set up a meeting. It would be no cost to the City. g. Regarding the purchase of Mr. Doyle s gravel pit; Mayor Williams had been asked to initiate such discussions with the City. Mr. Doyle does not know how much it is worth, however gravel is currently being sold for approximately $.60/yard. There - -- -. = is -room -for negotiations- - There -has been -some discussion of- -- developing Cunningham Park with a parking lot across the road. If --- ----- - -- -,---- - you chose to continue the discussions we can continue. KENAI CITY COUNCIL - MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1988 t PAGE 23 . Councilwoman Bailie: We do need gravel. It is an ongoing situation and the location seems to be appropriate. I suggest we continue. Mayor Williams: Let me advise the Council of the cost. The cost . of 54 acres will be in excess $500,000. City Manager Brighton: That would not discourage the public works department from taking a look at the sand in different areas within that whole acreage and perhaps look at ten acres of the tract, then we are not looking at the entire amount. The City does have an ongoing need --- - 4 for sand and gravel. We no longer have a source, it is now gone - 1 and we are going to have to find some, not that it must be in that�� location. The public works needs to take a look at lands the City , __ _•, __.. _. _ owns first. - - - - - - -- Mayor Williams: 1992 will see construction of the double lane - .. highway between Kenai and Soldotna, hopefully. The portion of the highway from Beaver Loop can be served by that gravel pit. We { will need gravel for the parking lot also. 2. City Manager a. The Planning Department of the th encouraged Borough has e g g . Borough to adopt a policy of CIP funding from the state to hold ., {j public hearings in outlying areas that are unincorporated to provide monies to those areas as opposed to also carrying -_ municipalities on the basis that those cities can stand alone. I Il object to that strenuously in that every one in the City of Kenai pays exactly the same Borough taxes as those people outside the cities pay. The Borough has a responsibility to represent every ' ono and not just those outside the cities. 3. Attorney a. I will miss the 11/2/88 meeting, Cary Graves will be filling in. b. We had an administrative hearing relative the Church lease on ` the bowling alley on a redetermination of the rent which happens every five years which was contested by the Churchs'. As you recall the City sets a return 6% of appraised value. It was and is our position that that was the lowest possible rate that the City would receive under any of the scenarios presented by the - opposition. We do not yet have a decision by the arbitration ' panel. This is the first one that has gone all the way through to the arbitration. Others have paid the lease rate after making a determination that it was in fact the lowest rate they would pay. I will inform you as soon as I have a decision on it. -4 .

After ' the game there will be a caravan parade back to Kenai with a barbecue at the high school. C. Councilwoman Swarner: Regarding the commissions and - - committees that are lacking members, perhaps it's time to sunset a some that can't keep members. } Mayor Williams: There are no committees or commissions that are ;! without membership to that extent. There is a vacancy on the Airport Commission but I received that today. it's hard for me to keep up with 14 of them. I have been very slow to appoint members to the Planning Commission and that is not because I don't want to , its because I'm trying to find people who will take a strong . - - -- - interest and are not biased on either side of the present question. „. Councilwoman Swarner: Perhaps its time for the department heads to take an active roll in finding members. City Manager Brighton: "4 Department heads should not be involved in that at all. That is - rLl Council and Mayor's prerogative. J Mayor Williams: I have an application for the Planning Commission from Chris Reynolds today, however, I want to take a look a couple -- more. I am still looking for a young lady for the Airport Commission. ! d.

As you probably already know, from the two Kenai area representatives on the Board, the Board at its August meeting did decide to hold the 1989 conference in Juneau. However, the Board members remain interested in considering Kenai for a future conference site. Board member Kristin Lambert of Soldotna elaborated on your written proposal at the meeting. Kristin indicated that because the logistics of the meeting locations, accommodations and transportation still needed some more work perhaps a 1990 or �991 meeting would provide more time to finalize the arrangements. Because the Board also had a bid from Juneau which has hosted in the past, the Board accepted the Juneau bid for �989. If you are interested in hosting at a future date, please keep in 1 touch with me and, as it gets closer to the summer of 1989, the time ?> to pick a site for 1990, submit a letter reaffirming your interest and ,F updating your proposal. Your support of the League and of its annual conference, one of the biggest and most important AML activities of the year, is greatly appreciated. _ Sincerely, Scot A. urgess Executive Director -- ,- -- - - cc: Betty Glick - - - - - - Kristin Lambert - -- - -- - - Rich Underkofler CA/kenaicon r MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL LEAt1UE OF CITIES AND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES 1, rr 1 f: L J a L. �H 1 _�...

Known as the Statewide 1 Economic Recovery Committee, the group believes that the key' to economic recovery and diversification is developing successful private -public partnerships. • I The objectives of the Statewide Economic Recovery Committee are to increase statewide, long-term private sector economic activity and to diversify Alaska's private sector economy. I Because Alaska's lack of infrastructure often limits economic growth, the committee will seek to identify . opportunities where a public sector investment in critical infrastructure, whether it be a port, airport, or utility improvement, will generate private sector investments and long-term, private sector employment of Alaskans. Alaska's economy requires a concentrated effort to attract private sector development, which will complement existing industries or allow new ones to establish themselves within the state. To pioneer this effort, the committee will identify opportunities for private public partnerships in capital investments, which they will then support before the governor and legislature. 1 1 Draft Statewide Economic Recovery_ Committee policy The committee will make a clear distinction between capital investments and capital improvement projects of an indirect nature. The committee will foous on projects that accelerate the development of critical infrastructure related to private sector expansion. Examples of direot infrastructure improvements include projects such as. industrial facilities at ports and airports, harbors, power projects, water/sewer/road improvements related to resource development, and regulatory reform targeted at encouraging private sector development. The Statewide Economic Recovery Committee is soliciting proposals from around the state that will have a high probability of fostering private sector growth in a region. Ideas which are proposed will be evaluated with assistance from municipalities, universities, and/or contracted staff. Those proposals with anticipated long-term economic benefit will be recommended for funding or enactment to the governor and state legislature, whether they involve the creation of 5 or 500 jobs. The following criteria should be addressed by communities in developing projects for consideration by the statewide -- - - - - Economic Recovery- Committee: 1. Will the capital investment stimulate activity which, over a period of time, will justify investment? 2 n Draft Statewide Economic Recovery Committee Policy 2. Indication of private sector benefit. 4 j 3. indication of support from the local community. 4. Estimate of operational costs and identification { owho will bear those costs. f h S. Description of state assistance needed. 6. Potential for Private/public partnership with investment by the state/community, resulting in ---- - additional investment by industry. ` 7. Estimate of short- and longterm employment for Alaskan$# utilising the existing workforce as much as possible. i a. Impact an the operation and maintenance costs of the state or local community. { 9. Estimate of time required to complete proposed { :( public and private development. 10. Potential for spin-off private investment and development as a secondary benefit.

Rogers, City Attorney City of Kenai DAT October 19, 1988 RE: Zoning After First English Two recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court have cast doubts on the ability of local communities to regulate land use and remain free of potential liability. The first of these, First English Evangelical Church of Glendale v. County of Los i Angeles, 482 U.S. , 96 I, . Ed . 250, 107 S. Ct . 2378 (1987) , the Court held local governments could be held liable for money damages if land -use regulations were found to be overly restrictive. Prior to the First English decision, courts had held invalidation the only remedy to an overly restrictive land - use ordinance. Agins V. Tiburon, 447 U.S. 255 (1980). First English caused great concern among municipal officials and land - use planners. Michael Berger, attorney for the church, stated his interpretation of its effects: Even though the short-term consequences are hazy, it may take a whopping judgment against a small town for People to realize it's not business as usual. Darnell, The Land and the Law, American City and County, Jan. 1988, at 38. In Nollan v. California Coastal Commission, U.S. , 97 L.Ed. 677, 107 S.Ct. 3141, the Court held that any restrictions or _fees. had to be. closely related to _the .lands. usage.. In Nollan,_ the Court threw out a requirement that the Nollan's grant the public an easement for about one-third of the beach front -1- 's 1, ti. �3 L r- property in order to get a building permit to increase the size of their house. Five other cases handed down that term clouded the regulatory picture further. Keystone Bituminous Coal Association v. De9enedictis, 1075 S.Ct. 1232 (1987); United states v. Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, 107 S.Ct. 1487 2076 (1987); Bowen v. Gilliard, 107 S.Ct. 3008 (1987); Florida Power Corp. v. FCC, 107 S.Ct. 1107 (1987); Model v. Irving, 107 S.Ct. 2076 (1987) . While current state of the law is somewhat unclear at this time, two factors have appeared that the Court will look at to decide future zoning cases. First, there must be a sufficient nexus or connection between the portion of the land regulated and the harm sought to be avoided by the regulation. Thus, in Nollan, the Court held a zoning condition providing for increased physical access to the beach was impermissible when the harm sought to be avoided is unsightly land development and the property regulated is the land which is itself being developed. The Court could, however, hold that denial of the occupancy permit regulates the building and not the land outside which is the real vroperty sought to be regulated. From my review of the recent cases handed down, it does not appear the Court would go that far. The second factor is the nature and extent of the imposition upon the property. The greater the imposition is upon the land, the more closely the Court will look at the regulation. In Nollan, the plaintiffs were required to grant an easement for about one- third of their property to get a building permit. Had the easement required been smaller, I do not think the Court would have been as inclined to strike it down. The landscaping requirements of KMC 14.25 at seq. are relatively small when compared to the overall building costs. For that reason, it is less likely that a court would find the ordinance invalid. In conclusion, while the law of zoning is currently in a state of flux, it appears that KMC 14.25 at seq. would be upheld without any liability for the City. CRG/clf I 1 - 1 1 LAW OFFICC OF VICTOR C.

Kenai and Morgan Our File Nos.s BURJ-01 and SCHM-01 Dear Gentlemen: As you know, I have been retained by William and Jill Burnett to pursue their claims for damages arising from the loss of access to property along the Kenai Municipal Golf Course. At the time that the Burnetts' property interests were impaired, they still owed a sum of money on the property, secured by a deed of trust and note. The beneficiaries of that deed of Trust have also retained me to represent their interests. These beneficiaries have instructed me to convey that they are willing to forego any claim for damages or equitable relief in return for Candlelight Drive Extension being restored promptly and their right to unfettered access to their property assured. On behalf of the beneficiaries, I respectfully request that your respective clients review this proposal and advise me of their decisions. The offerof-the beneficiaries is limited to their claims - alone and in no way is to be construed so as to affect the Burnetts' claims. I look forward to hearing from you shortly.

Rogers, and opposes plaintiff's motion to reconsider. Since defendant presents nothing new in its motion to reconsider that previously was not a matter of record, defendant City of Kenai assumes the request for reconsideration requested by plaintiff has to do with the Court overlooking, misapplying, or failing to consider something that was before it prior to entering its order of September 8, 1988. However, it is impossible to ascertain specifically what defense counsel maintains was overlooked, misapplied; or not considered since the -motion- for- f reconsideration does not specify which grounds.

This case appears to be just the type of case the rule was instituted to cull. There has been no action in the past year and there will be none in the future at least until the Bureau of Indian Affairs' probate proceedings determine who the heirs are. The plaintiff has given no estimate as to how long it will take to determine the heirs. It could be years. The named plaintiff has apparently moved to another state. No one is quite sure which one of the other forty-nine it is, however. In his affidavit, counsel for the plaintiff states he has verbal authorization from the "appropriate representatives of the Bureau of Indian Affairs" to proceed with this action. This raises the question of 'Just who is counsel representing in this actionC Is counsel representing the Bureau of Indian Affairs or Mr. Chulin? The Court should dismiss this action without prejudice. It could be brought back when, and if, the named plaintiff can be found and the heirs can be determined by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. If it is not dismissed, it will languish in the Court's calendar for an indeterminate, but almost certainly lengthy, period of time before some action is taken, if ever. 1rJRPEQ.1A7TF.8AB day of October, 1968. ice - The """'111mcd hereby certifies that on 4CITYTDFAIday of -+oA Rogers •.c�ttorney s ::T lZaBcrs by - ... ��!�� r f 2 — OPPOSITION If7 VPP�TING MEMORANDUM IN 4J OPPOSITION TO MOTION TO RECONSIDER L A i I AN IN THE SUPERIOR COURT FOR THE STATE OF ALASKA THIRD JUDICIAL DISTRICT AT KENAI WALTER CHULIN, et alp ) Plaintiff, ) VS. )1 CITY OF KENAI, et alp ) Defendants. ) 3KN 87-52 CI Slate of Alosm.

Jim Burling and Kathleen Weeks, both of the Pacific Legal Foundation, accompanied RDC staff Kim Duke, Carl Portman, Debbie Reinwand and me. On the train, we were serenaded by the stewards, who had a repertoire that ranged from old standards to some new tunes. Those travelling to Healy by private car included Executive Di- rector Becky Gay, and Boardmembers Earl Beisillne of Fair- banks, Curtis Foster of Arco, and his wife Jan, O.K. "Easy" Gllbreth of AOGA, and his wife Mllly, Len and Jeanne McLean of Anchorage. E.H.

Other guests included Kelt� Silver of City Insurance in Anchorage, Jennie Gay, Becky's moths who is visiting from Phoenix, Chris and Bud Duke, Kim's parents from Fairbanks, and Dan Egan, also of Fairbanks. Once at Denali National Park, RDC board members boarded a bus for the short ride to Harper Lodge, a beautiful new facility just above the banks of the Nenana River. An outdoor hot tub proved Inviting for some, while others enjoyed the outdoor deck or dined white watching the Nenana River rush by. The formal board meeting followed at 7 p.m. In the Harper Lodge conference room. On Saturday, it was up bright and early for a bus ride to the Usibelli Coal Mine headquarters in Healy.

A few weeks ago, a member of the state administration address- ed the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce. His remarks centered around the fact that Alaska is different than other states In that much of the wealth and land ownership rests In the hands of the state. For this reason, the actions of our state officials should be measured differently than officials or other states. Since Alaska is an "owner" state. our state officials need to be given the leeway to take more "entreproneurlal" actions. He likened the state admin- Istratlon to the board of directors of a large corporation with 500,000 shareholders. One of the points he made was that the citizens of Alaska have made it difficult for the administration to perform this "corporate" role because 4 has not been able to gain a consensus among the "sharehotdere" as to which projects to pursue and In what manner. While 1 was encouraged to hear the administration recognizes entrepreneurial actions need to be taken by the officials of our "owner" state, I was disappointed (but not surprised) to hear that they think a consensus is needed in order to take action. An entrepreneur Is defined in Webaters New World Dictionary as "a person who organized and manages a business undertaking, assuming the risk for the sake of a profit." I can't Imagine any entrepreneur (or corporate board of directors) waiting for a consen• sus before he takes action. A corporation hires corporate officers and boards of directors to determine the appropriate goals and actions with the attendant risks necessary to reach the goals. Shareholders expect firm, decisive actions from their corporate officers. r-- "By employing the entreprenurial approach, the final score card will indicate we are all winners." Beneficial results are not possible without taking risks. Since risks are involved, every action will not end up with expected results and no reasonable shareholder expects that the correct decision will be made every time. There Is, however, a score card kept. The overall success is, of course, measured by the Increase in value or income of the enterprise. Failure to attain the desired result over time will result in the officers and board being replaced by the shareholders. In the September 1988 issue of Management Review, Alan J. Zakon discusses the differences between corporations which are on the move and growing and those that are not experiencing growth. He observes; ...It is not unusual for corporations to have more staff members planning what will be done, reporting on what has been done, and coordinating what Is done than actually doing It" He adds, "this represents the central tendency in all organiza- tions — the almost automatic diversion of energy from the creation o/ values to the preservation of the organization. Successful com- panies build strong Infrastructures tosupport valuecrealion; declin. Ing companies build overheads." 0 our state leaders are to be successful entrepreneurs, it Is essential they accept risks (such as long-term timber commit- ments). Uke business people, they need to determine how to add value to our state's vast resources, make decisions on how to do It, and stick with them instead of taking a poll to see how popular the decision is going to be with a particular constituency. A real corporate board would work hard to add value to its assets while protecting Its Interests by staying involved in land exchange negotiations. Entering as an Intervenor in Important law- suits which have a tremendous impact on state land would also be In its best interests. By employing the entreprenurial approach, the final score card will indicate we are all winners. Red Dog construction proceeds Port and mine site work on schedule RED OOG — With just over a year and a half to Install and complete all of the necessary facilities to make Red Dog a world class mine, things are now In full swing at the mine site. This joint venture between Cominco Alaska Incorporated and the NANA Re- glonalCorporationis scheduled to begin operation in early 1990. With proven reserves of 65 million tons, once in full production, Red Dog will be the largest operating zinc mine in the western world. However, to turn Red Dog Into an operating mine is a major project. With development costs estimated at $420 million, all of the facilities needed to make the mine functional must be brought Into this remote site. Construction on the project began in the summer of 1986 when a shallow water dock and staging area were installed at the port site. The following year, construction began on a 54•mile road ,vhlch would link the port site with the Red Dog mine. By November 1987, the road contractor had completed an initial pioneer road work Installing the offshore loading conveyor supports, the concen- trate storage building, and three 2.3 million gallon, double wall, fuel storage tanks. One fuel tank was erected In 1987. Activity at the mine site has also been heightened this summer as contractors worked to install a building capable of storing up to 35.000 tons of concentrate, as well as water and fuel supply tanks. The accommodations facility which can house 300 workers, and the services complex which Includes offices, maintenance and warehouse facilities, are also under construction. Meanwhile, the site work preparation has continued with the completion of the failings dam and construction of the -water supply dam. - - - - The mine Is scheduled to begin production in early 1990 and will employ about 300 people. Concentrates will be trucked down the road on a year-round basis. Shipping and receiving materials at the port site will be limited to a 90.100 day window during the Ice -free months of July Into the mine. In August 1988, the road was completed to final through October. grade with all of the necessary bridges and culverts In place. The majority of the work in 1968 has occurred at the port and mine site. At the port site, three primary contractors have been at September 1888 / RESOURCE REVIEW / Page 3 Hove much wilderness is enough? continued Irom cover Breaking It down, Alaska has some 33 million acres of designated Wilderness in national parks. 18.6 million acres in na- tional wildlife refuges and some 5.4 million acres In national forests. Designated Wilderness Is not just a term that means an uninhabitated piece of land. It means development of any sort is statutorily prohibited. No commercial activ- ity of any type is permitted, including the construction of public and private recre- ation facilities. With some exceptions, roads are also banned in addition to new access trails and cabins. Resource de• velopment, including hydroelectric genera• Von, timber harvesting, commercial fishing and oil development is prohibited. Even the use of chainsaws and portable electric generators are not allowed in most cases. Only the most primitive recreation activity Is permitted. A number of ANILCA provisions give federal land managers some discretion in administering federal Wilderness in Alaska. For the most part, however, wilderness policies are so strict and inflexible that some provisions, such as those addressing access and Inholder rights, are of little help.

RDC recognizes that various provlsionc` within ANILCA are suppose to guarantee residents access and use of their private islands in the vast sea of wilderness zones. However, as a practical matter. Gay sold the wilderness designations make life much more difficult for inholders, Increas- Ing stringent regulations and procedures which greatly restrict and tightly regulate access and activities. Throughout the state there exists a gen- eral, cumulative overlay of land manage- ment schemes with the ability to severely frustrate development of every human kind. Wilderness is the worst example, Gay warned. "Take a close look at the contiguous or adjacent conservation units presently in the Alaskan arctic," Gay said. "Combine them with the latest wilderness recommends- lIons and a proposal to designate the vast National Petroleum Reserve a wildlife re- fuge and one can reasonably assume a move Is underway to lock out multiple -use opportunity In America's arctic lands." For Instance, it is presently impossible to cross north to south on the Alaska Penin- sula or the Aleutian Chain without crossing a conservation system unit. With the excep- tion of the narrow trans -Alaska pipeline car- ridor, it is impossible to cross the vast main- land of Alaska from south to north witho entering at least one highly restrictive con' servation unit. (continued on page 5) (continued from page 4) Alaska wilderness designations cover some 66 million acres, enough to lock -up -� the entire state of Minnesota. i At the ALUC Fairbanks meeting, RDC urged the federal agencies to accept the concept that wilderness proposals for one park are not independent of other existing and potential wilderness designations. "Wilderness designations must not be con• sidered in isolation since asizeable percen. tage of Alaska's productive lands have been withdrawn from multiple use, di- minishing our timber and mineral base," Stastny said. "Fifty-six million acres of de- signated wilderness would be the 11th largest state, between the size of Oregon (62.1 million acres) and Utah (64.3 million acres)," Stasiny noted. 'The time has come to consider the cumulative effect of additional wilderness designations on the opportunities to explore for and develop Alaska's vast nat- ural resources," Stastny continued. "The cumulative effect on economics and na- tional security has not been addressed in the environmental impact statements. Yet the prospects are frightening when the cumulative effects of designated Wilder- ness are contemplated on the economic activities of tourism, mining, timber harvest- Ing and energy resource development." Although the national parks are already withdrawn from multiple use and are not available for economic or resource de- velopment, RDC believes wilderness de- signations within the parks pose a serious threat to potential community and resource development adjacent to park boundaries. And although Title XI of ANILCA allows for crossing CSUs, the fact Is, it has not been done through that provision. Mining Despite provisions in ANILCA which guarantee access and various property rights, inholdersand miners within Alaska's national parks have experienced great dif- ficulty and frustration In using their property since 1980. RDC disagrees with the Park Service that a wilderness designation does not adversely affect the ability of a miner to work a valid existing claim. Wilderness designations bring increasingly stringent regulations on a mining operation, Increas- ing costs while reducing profits and the ac. tual viability of the operation — in turn threatening the livelihood of the people working the claim. "Experience has clearly shown it Is ex- traordinarily difficult to develop any mining claims near wilderness areas due to the level of regulatory gridlock, a terrible amount of bureaucratic Inertia and reluc- tance to permit." said Jim Burling of the Pacific Legal Foundation. "Equally serious In the private sector is the reluctance to Invest in mining properties Inside or near wilderness areas." Burling added. "Most in- vestors are understandably gun-shy." RDC is also concerned with the adverse fallout wilderness designations could have on mine development through the enforce- ment of regulations aimed at protecting the wilderness character of lands surrounding a mining claim. It Is not hard for RDC to Imagine how the viability of mining opera- tions could be damaged by viewshed or buffer zone regulations. Visitor Use In regard to visitor use, Alaska's growing tourism industry could be seriously affected by new wilderness designations, which pre.

"Considering 33 million acres of national park lands in Alaska are already desig- nated Wilderness, the Park Service has failed to demonstrate in an objective man- ner why wilderness values should take pre- cedence over other activities on the re- maining lands." sold RDC's Gay. "Why shouldn't tourism operations catering to a much wider variety of park users have pre- cedence over primitive recreation on the remaining lands" she asked. There is a serious need for new roads, visitor centers and campgrounds in Alaska's national parks to relieve pressure brought about by Increasing numbers of tourists. At an anticipated growth rate of five percent annually, the number of tourists expected to visit Alaska will exceed two million by the year 2000. World -class visitor center complexes offering a variety of recreational opportunities to a wide seg- ment of the public are likely to play a major role In the successful development of the International tourism market In Alaska. The Park Service environmental impact statements do not adequately address the Impacts of the new wilderness proposals on such needed facilities. ROC contends, since they virtually ignore visitor demand. After a thorough analysis of the wilder- ness Issue, the Alaska Land Use Council adopted a position against adding more wit• derness to Alaska's national parks. The Council will soon advance its "no more wit- derness" recommendation to Interior See. rotary Don Hodel.

ALL FEDERALLY -OWNED LANDS IN ALASKA The 220-molion acres of federd lands within Alaska alone would comprise the second largest state in the union. This acreage, a large portion of which severely restricts or prohibits economic de- velopment and public access, is comparable in size to the following combination of 15 states: Maine Connecticut Delaware NewHampshire Newyork Maryland Vermont Newwtersey Virginia Massachusetts Pennsylvania NorthCarolina Rhode Island Ohio SoulhCarvlina September 1988 / RESOURCE REVIEW / Page 6 W F, Publisher tackles environmental lobby on Tongass Ketchikan editor seeks to offset environmental propaganda machine by Senator Frank Murkowskl it looks a little like the biblical story of David and Goliath. Ketchiken Daily Now a publisher low Williams is on an ambiti- ous crusade to tell America about the importance of the Tongass Umber harvest program — and he's challenging the mammoth environmental lobby to stick to the facts. The lobby groups have been distributing to the national press misinformation and distortions about the timber program in the Tongass. Their emotional appeal has resulted in a number of editorials in national newspapers that are unfair to Alaska, and the Ketchikan publisher has decided to do something about It. Using his network of newspaper contacts in the lower 48, Lew receives copies of the propaganda being mailed to the press by the Wilderness Society, Sierra Club and other lobby groups. He then responds with a mailing of his own to the national papers, telling them the facts about the timber Industry and its importance to the communities of Southeast Alaska. For Lew and the other people of Southeast, the outcome of the Tongass debate now before Congress is very significant. It's about their economic survival. Having followed this issue closely for many years. Lew Williams Is probably the best able to explain It to others, and I'll use his summary from one of his recent editorials: "The forest plan, fought for by Alaskans and professional fores- ters as far back as the 1920s, calls for harvesting 1.7 million acres of the 16.7 million -acre Tongass over 100 years. At the end of 100 years, cutting of second growth begins in the same areas, providing Jobs and opportunities for future Americans in a land of clear air, beautiful scenery and plentiful resources. The second growth will be quality timber in twice the volume of the old rowth, thanks to husbanding of professional foresters. The pro- gram can recycle for hundreds of years without touching 90 per- cent of the forest. 'The plan never really started until pulp milts were attracted to the Tongass In the 19809. More than one-half of Tongass timber Is low grade wood, unsuitable for lumber. To log in a responsible manner means taking the low grade with the lumber grade, not leave it lying in the woods. The only place to send that volume of low grade Is to a pulp mill. 'The timber Industry In Alaska provides several good side be. nefits. It provides a stable economic base for people who enjoy and respect the outdoors. It provides roads which open up fishing and recreational areas for residents and visitors. It provides ex- ports which improve the balance of trade. "The plan went well until Congress began political tinkering in 1980. The tinkering was needless. It also was costly. There were areas that never would be logged -even without the wilderness designation. It was all laid out in the Tongass Land Use Plan in the 19709. the first such land plan in a U.S. national forest. "When Congress did tinker in 1980. at the instigation of the Wilderness Society and other environmental groups, it destroyed a balanced program. To compensate, Congress authorized S40 million a year to assure the timber harvest could be maintained despite timber going Into wilderness. That solution was the brain - Page 61 RESOURCE REVIEW / September 1986 Approximately one thud of the Tongass National Forest (6.4 million acres) has been put into wilderness for all time, compared with one -tenth (1.7 million acres) allocated to the timber industry over 100 years. Modern forest management practices will allow a har- vesting cycle to continue for hundreds of years without touching 80 percent of the forest. child of the environmentalists, used to win support of Alaskans In Congress. "Now the Wilderness Society is describing the $40 million as a subsidy for timber. It's more a subsidy for wilderness or compen- sation for timber lost to wilderness. Now Congress is being panicked into political tinkering again, frightened by the Wilderness Society's editorial pets and its associates in the environmental community." That's a pretty succinct summary of the Tongass Issue — one which the Ketchikan publisher Is sharing with editors across America. Another waythat Lew Williams Is making his case tothe national media Is by sharing with them the editorials of other newspapers In Alaska — almost all of whom have come out in support of the position opposing "further tinkering" of the plan. He has mailed editorials from The Anchorage Times, Fairbanks News -Miner, Juneau Empire and Peninsula Clarion to the major newspapers in the Lower 48 that have shown an interest In the subject. In his quest to offset the environmental propaganda machine and get fair media treatment for Alaska about Tongass, Lew Will- iams is accomplishing something else. He's reminding Alaskans of something we learned long ago. but may be forgetting in recent years. If we're going to have any kind of economic base or future for our state, we must rally to- gether. Because Alaska Is a big state with a small population, Alaska communities cannot stand by while another community or region is under attack by Outside interest groups. We're an easy target for special interest environmental organi- zations that depend on special causes to raise money. it's easier for -them -to "win" -here, because we don't have the popwatknor resources to match their arsenals. We certainly don't have a chance if we don't all band together when one of our communities Is under fire. When Lew Williams writes his editorials in the Ketchikan paper. he's not writing just for the people of Ketchikan. He's hoping the( rest of Alaska, and America, is listening as well. This article appeared September 16 in The Anchorage Times. A r The Healy Cogeneration Project In a nutshell, the proposed Healy Cogeneration Project Is a mar- riage of leading edge technologies which could produce very signif- icant benefits for the Railbelt and Indeed the whole of Alaska. The Healy Cogeneration Project comprises a coal -tired power plant with the design capacity to produce betwen 100 and 150 megawatts of electric power and a coal processing plant which would utilize heat energy from the power plant to process or dry typical Healy coal to produce a premium quality fuel. The initial capacity of the coal proces- sing facility would be 600,000 tons of product a year from about 650,000 tons of raw feed coal. The Healy project is expected to cost approximately $300 million and would be the largest single non-milkary and non -all and gas related venture ever tackled in the Alaska Ralibelt region. Usibelli Coal Mine Inc., and Brown & Root, joint partners in the project, recently concluded that the time had come to commit the human and financial resources needed to promote and move ahead with the project. Making the Healy project become a reality is a complex and challenging task yet the rewards for Alaska and the Railbelt region cannot be denied. The proposed powerplant will utilize a technology which has prog- ressed over several decades in Europe and Asia. The boiler will utilize atmospheric circulating fluidized bad technology (A.C.F.B.) which brings new performance levels in terms of efficiency and re• sponsiveness to coal-fired facilities but most importantly has major environmental benefits. In ACFB boilers the sulfur contained in the coal is neutralized in the combustion chamber resulting in very low sulfur dioxide emissions. ACFB boilers operate at much lower combustion temperatures than conventional coal-fired plants, which virtually eliminates the for- mation of nitrous oxides providing another major environmental plus. The third Important consequence of coal combustion is the formation of fly ash, however, this is controlled by conventional bag filters or by electrostatic precipitation methods which work very effectively on Healy coal. Thus, ACFB combustion technology installed at Healy handily meets the very strict atmospheric standards applicable to a she which is within a few miles of Denali National Park. Usibelll coal is a low -ash, low -sulfur, but high moisture coal mainly used for power generation. The challenge for Alaska coal, which Us►belli recognizes, Is not strictly to produce clean coal, but to produce a low -moisture, low -sulfur processed coal. Because simple drying results In an unstable product which can rapidly reabsorb moisture and spontaneously combust, the proces- sing of Uelbelil coal Is more complex and involved than first Impres- sions Imply. Different technologies are being evaluated to provide the best and most -cost effective system for use in the Healy project. Besides expanded marketing opportunities for a better quality proces- sed coal, there are very significant transportation savings that can go far towards offsetting the processing costs. Guest Opinion -�-t . = by - John Sims Vice President �, tw _ Marketing Usibelll Coal Mine �'�/ tj A key element of current efforts Is to evaluate the marketability of the processed coal output from the Healy facility. The combined attributes of good heat value and low sulfur content are expected to command a premium price in the future. A market for the electrical power Is fundamental to the project feasibility, therefore the project partners want to win the support of the major Railbeh utilities by convincing them that coal-fired genera- tion provides the best assurance of low cost energy for the Railbelt well Into the twenty-first century. Utility power demand projections are currently not very encouraging, however, the Healy project partners are confident that the Railbelt economy will recover and the proposed Increment of power will be needed. In fact, the availability of power at an assured low cost could be a major catalyst In the growth cycle that will surely follow the present deep recession. Historically, utilities have tended to rely on adding gas -fired gen- erstion, or most recently state -funded hydroelectric capacity, to satisfy demand growth. With more than 80% of generating capacity In the form of gas -fired units concentrated in relative close proximity to Anchorage, there are legitimate concerns regarding the vulnerabil- ity and undue dependence upon natural gas for power generation. The case for coal-fired generation can be argued very effectively, however, the mindset of the ublitles must shift somewhat from short• term considerations to genuine longer term perspectives for the merits of coal to be fully recognized. Probably the single greatest determinant In the short-term to pro- ject viability hinges on use of the Ralibelt Energy Fund (REF) to secure favorable financing. Leveraging, not spending, the corpus of the REF to provide low-cost financing through the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA) would ensure viability. The benefit of the low interest financing rate attendant upon this proposal would be passed through to the Railbelt consumer in the form of low cost electricity. This should be a formula which the elec- trical utilities would support since it provides for future predictable low cost power for their customers. The Healy Project, although challenging in terms of human in- genuity and resourcefulness, could pave the way for economic recov- ery and needed diversification in the Railbelt. Final report gives Prudhoe clean bill of health A final U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service report analyzing predictions made about the development of the Prudhoe Bay oil field concludes that no significant environmental harm associated with North Slope oil development has occurred. The report shows the envonmental impact of oil and gas development for the most part has been far less than was originally forecast in the 1972 environmental impact statement. The report concludes that "the environmental record for oil -related development on the North Slops speaks well for both the planning and execution of this monumental project." An earlier draft copy, which alleged oil development had caused more damage than what the government had originally predicted, was- leaked to the press. The Incomplete and biased draft was trumpted by environmental lobbies and received top billing in newspapers across the nation. The report had not been approved by either the regional director or national offices of the U.S. Fish 8 Wildlife Service because It had not undergone peer review and evaluation to assure objectivity. Such unrevlewed documents allow for personal opinions to be taken as fact. Unfortunately, the facts presented In the final report have been ignored by most national newspapers. As for all and gas leasing on the Coastal Plain of ANWR, the final report noted that "This analysis provides reason to believe that the outcome would be measurably better in the conduct of an orderly oil and gas leasing program on the 1002 area of ANWR.' september 1988 / RESOURCE REVIEW / Page 7 I tt. 9(enai community Pdna%y A PUBLIC LIBRARY IN SERVICE SINCE 1949 103 MAIN STREET LOOP KENAI, ALASKA 99611 REPORT FOR THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER 1988 Circulation Adult Juvenile Easy Books Fiction 1197 281 992 Non-fiction 1636 173 305 Total Book Circulation 4584 Films, Phonodiscs, Pamphlets, Periodicals 293 Total Circulation 4 Additions Adult Juvenile Easy Books AV Gifts 37 4 14 - 108 43 62 - 55 213 Purchases Total Additions 26 Interlibrary Loans Ordered Received Returned Books 35 50 16 AV 22 22 22 Interlibrary Loans by our Library Books Films AV 46 20 .9 Volunteers Number .. 26 Total Hours .. 506 696.70 i 148.85 326.50 . al Income for September 1988 .. $1,172.05 - i I Wenal eommunify Xitta41J.

DIRECTOR DATE: 10/14/88 SUBJECT: STREET LIGHTS i vA_l3 S-roga. 'T C /GETS Cm&0iV4.f0- /001/8 i I spoke with Ron Rainey of SEA concerning the possibility of having property owners request that HU install a yard light on their property and having the City reimburse them or paying SEA for the capital costs. He said that there is no more $28.00 capital costs for yard lights and that the City would not save any money by doing it that way. The cost would depend on many different things like availability of secondary power, distance to secondary power, need for transformers, existing or new poles being needed, location, etc... If the yard light was installed by SEA before the meter, the owner would pay the same monthly lump sum rate for the light ($13.38 per month). Another option is for the property owner (or City) to hire an electrician to hook into the power after the house meter and to furnish and install the complete yard light system. SEA would then not be involved with the yard light at all. The electrician would be paid for the capital costs and the property owner would pay for the power through his normal house meter. Maintenance and repair would be the property owners responsibility. After talking to Ron Rainey and writing the above, I studied my Old (Jan. 11, 1982) REA handbook of rules and regulations (which I understand is still in effect). Pages 7, 48, and 69 are attached. It sounds like we may be getting "street light" and "yard light" mixed up. Their definitions are: STREET LIGHT YARD LIGHT A system or fixture of A fixture or fixtures In - such system, for the ill- stalled to illuminate umination of streets, private homes and areas, alleys, and other public including places and Places and areas, installed areas to which -the -public and operated at public has access, but which are expense. privately owned and con- trolled. Therefore, the idea of having the property owner request a yard light for the street does not fit their definition. I can not find any rules or regulations on street lights in their booklet. i Page a I do not know the answer to the street light problem. Everyone thinks they need a light on their street corner. (Except a few who don't like them near their house.) I had a request for continued lighting of R-Beach road from the Bridge Access to Robinson's Grocery store. (I told her to contact the DOT/PF since it is a state road and outside of the City.) The Public Works Department did prioritize the requests we received from our citizens, that list is attached. if you would like we can start all over again and evaluate the request as if they were new, however I don't think much has changed since then. Except maybe new bus routes and stops might have changed. On the subject of existing street lights; Public Works is presently mapping and will have on computer the location of each street light that the City is involved in. The street lights that are metered the City operates and maintains through an electrical contractor. The street lights that are unmetered are operated and maintained by HEA.

Attachment A is the list of street lights that were k presented to Counc in the fall of 1986 and approved. Notice that k the first 34 were from Burton Carver Bus Company. Attachment 8 is 4 a copy of the purchase order to HEA for $19,500 to cover the Installation of 10 new lights in VIP. They have been installed. I 1 have been waiting for the costs to install the remaining 40 lights from HEA. They came and looked at the locations on December 5, 1986. j AttachmenttC is a new list (to replace the old list) of new street {I light requests. I worked with the Laidlaw dispatchers (who finally j ended up giving each bus driver a form I made up) to come up with a >� new list of bus stops that need a new street light.

This is more y a o arks recommen a On as to priority, no o a eo u ough,.Lahts aE,e a safety item they are still e luxury not afl ahanl,4-need. Public Works -recommendation for First Priority consists of 12 new lights. With the 28 requests from Laidlaw and these 12 we have the 40-new lights that are budgeted. Notice that each group -of new lights are listed in alphabetical order. Page 3 shows 11 new light requests that I would suggest not be considered. Also page 3 gives a summary of the number of lights waw..wwL wJ ATTACHMENT C pang / no 9 r..,.. These new lights have been estimated to have a capital coat ofr around $1,800 each or less depending an if there is an existing pole ` or transformer nearby. The new lights would not be metered and the costa for maintenance and energy would be $13.53/each per month plus $15 service or billing charge. Therefore the costs for 40 new lights would be $556.20 per month or $6,674.40 per year. If we were to do all 65 lights it would coat $894.45 per month or $10,733.40 per •year.

I was assured • .... street lights wouid be installed the following spring. UUtil now, lack of 1 street lights has been nothing more than a minor inconvenience. Now there } are several elementary school children using this street to walk to and ( + from school. This is not a question of economics, I would gladly pay for electricity j used by these lights. I use outside house lights, at critical times they YY simply do not provide enough light. The point, however, is the rest of Yi Woodland Subo has street lights and since our property assessments are f based at least in part on these services ( how else could a 75ft. X 150ft. lot be assessed at *15000.00 ) we should have them too. 1 Should you decide to install them, a light at the corner of Sycamore & Wal- nut and one at the apex of the cul-de-sac on Sycamore Circle would be ade- quate. ri r Respectfullys I I �� eve A.

However AML membership Is not required to attend and participate in the conference discussions and activities. New members will also be eligible for member rates at the Conference. O READ THE POLICY STATEMENT The major purpose of the AML Conference is to develop the League's legislative program and policy for the next year. The AML Policy Statement Is discussed during the annforeaee and adopted at the Friday business meeting. -Each member municipality with delegates In attendance gets one vote. The AML Polley Statement serves as -a guide for the legislative activities of the League Board, Legislative Committee, and staff. This year conference delegates will also be discussing and approving a new legislative advocacy document. the Municipal Platform. The AML Board of Directors, meeting in Sitks, approved this now document, the Municipal Platform, as the prima^ advocacy tool for the League. Each year's Municipal Platform will focus on the League's top five to ten priority Items and include a brief position paper on each. The AML Policy Statement will continue to be used as a reference resource on League positions on a variety of Issues by AML staff, members. and others. Now to the Polley Statement starting this year are background statements and explanations of the issues so that persons using It can better understand why the League has taken a given position. Copies of the draft 1989 Policy Statement were seat to all AML members In late September. Copies of the proposed Municipal Platform will be included in the conference registration packets, as will additional copies of the Policy Statement. Copies are also available to non-members upon request. The Policy Statement acid Municipal Platform will be the basis of discussion during the conference. The Policy Statement will be voted on at the Friday business meeting. Please read the Policy Statement, familiarize yourself with it, and discuss it In your community prior to the Conference.

The policy sections on Wednesday afternoon and all day Thursday and workshops on Friday morning will provide learning opportunities for delegates. Legislaton, commissioners, and other knowledgeable individuals will make presentations j on a variety of Issues.

The Board of Directors has recommended three amendments to the Constitution and Bylaws to come before the general membership for a vote this year. The first Is an amendment that would Increase thb membership of the Board by splitting Senate Districu J and K. thus giving Fairbanks a seat on the Board. The second would allow weighted voting by population, with the largest member municipality, Anchorage, having five votes, and the others proportionately fewer (4, 3, 2, and 1). The third amendment brings the constitutional language concerning committee appointments Into line with the Resolutions Procedure adopted last year by the Board. Copies of the proposed amendments will be mailed ! to all member municipalities in early October. Please consider them carefully, discuss them with the governing body of your municipality, and come prepared to vote on them at the Conference. If you need s copy of the AML Constitution and Bylaws, please contact the League office In Juneau.

The elections procedure approved by the Board last year will once again be used. Detailed information on nominations for district vacancies and nomination forma were Included in the June "Special Bulletin.• Since that time Nell Anderson, Second Vice President, who would have automatically succeeded to the position of First Vice President for 1989, has decided not to run for re-election to his municipal office and, thus, will have to resign from his AML post. Therefore, there are now vacancies for both the First and Second Vice President positions, and member municipalities should consider nominations for both positions. Each member community should submit names of nominees who will be effective and active in representing local government in Alaska, the AML, and their community. Nominations must be submitted on the proper form by noon on Wednesday, November 16, 1988. Remember that currently the Constitution and Bylaws call for nine (9) directors from districts and one (1) director at -large, in addition to the officers (4) and the past presidents (up to S). Directors and officers must be elected members of the governing bodies of their member municipalities. Representatives of the managers, clerks, and attorneys associations also sit as ex-offieio members of the AML Board, but are elected/appointed by their associations. AMR. President Heather Flynn will appoint a Nominating Committee, which will review nominations from member municipalities and present a elate of at least two (2) candidates for the offices of First and Second Vice President and for each of the director vacancies (the even -numbered districts and the at -large position) at the Thursday general session. Additional nominations can come from the floor at the Thursday general session. AML President Flynn will also appoint an Election Board -to .conduct _ the eleetione. Voting will take place Friday morning between 9:00 and 11:00-a.m. The tint woodas of the new AML Board will be Saturday norniagg,, -November -19, 1988 at the Westmark Fairbanka.

Elected officials and municipal staff are eligible to serve on the committee. Nominations for two-year appointments to the Legislative Committee must be submitted on the appropriate form, which was included in the June Special Bulletin. If you need more copies of this form, please contact the AML. The form requires the signature of a presiding off leaf of the governing body, mayor, or firm or agency officer supporting the nominee. Such a signature Indicates acceptance of the responsibility for paying costs associated with the committee meeting participation. Legislative Committee members appointed last year will automatically continue to serve their second year unless AML is notified that they no longer wish to serve or unless they are no longer in municipal office. Nominations should be sent to the Alaska Municipal League, 217 Second Street, Suite 200, Juneau, Alaska 99801, or given to AML First Vice President Delbert Rexford or an AML staff person by 2:00 p.m. Thursday, November 17.

In the material enclosed, please note that the distribution of 1-5 votes based on actual population has been adjusted to reflect the payment of dues by boroughs on an areawide or non-areawide basis and the payment of a service fee by cities within boroughs paying on an areawide basis. tinder the proposed amendment, cities paying a service fee would get one vote as if they were paying a similar amount based on population. For example, the Fairbanks North Star Borough is allotted 4 votes because it pays on an areawide basis ($33,500), that is, for the total population in the Borough and in the Cities of Fairbanks and North Pole. The City of Fairbanks, within the Fairbanks North Star Borough, gets only a single vote because it only pays a service fee of $450 and, even though it has a population of 27,099, it pays dues of a city with only a population of approximately 320. The Northwest Arctic Borough, on the other hand, pays on a non- areawide basis, i.e. on population outside the cities within the Borough. With a non-areawide population of 277 the NWAB pays $405 in dues and, therefore, has only one vote. However, the City of Kotzebue, which is in the NWAB and an AML member, has a population of 3,594, pays $3,370 in dues and, therefore, is allotted 3 votes. Amendment #3s Brings the Constitution language regarding the Resolutions Committee into conformance with the adopted Board policy. Proposed language AML Constitution, Article v - COMMITTEES Section 1.

The committee shall review, accept, mend, or reject each resolution introduced by member municipalities.] Bach resolution accepted IM the committee shall be presented at the annual meeting for ratification by a majority vote of the member municipalities voting at the business meeting. Summary of effect The proposed amendment would bring the AML Constitution in compliance with the resolutions procedure adopted by the AML Board and implemented at last year's conference. Reference was also made to the Board's proposed amendments in a recent AML Newsletter. Please review the material to make sure you understand the amendments and are prepared to act on them at the annual meeting in November. if you have questions, contact your AML Board representative or myself.
