RESOLUTION NO. 88-85
A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA,
PRIORITIZING STATE FUNDING TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS INCLUDING
MUNICIPAL ASSISTANCE, REVENUE SHARING, SCHOOL BOND INDEBTEDNESS
AND FORMULA FUNDING FOR SCHOOLS.
WHEREAS, it appears by all economic indications the State of
Alaska is continuing in a depressed economic condition because of
the slide in crude oil prices, and
WHEREAS, economic circumstance, in all probability, will result
in an attempt by the State to reduce pass through monies to local
government in one area or another, and
WHEREAS, a reduction in pass through monies to local government
will most probably result in increased taxes at the local level,
and
WHEREAS, the City of Kenai. A1asxa is extremely interested in
seeing any reauctions ve passed through to local government in a
fair and equitable manner, and
WHEREAS, the City of Kenai. Alaska, through its City Council
feels that the most equitable distribution of State pass through
monies to local government would be to retain Municipal
Assistance and Revenue Sharing at full funding and should there
be a necessity to reduce local funding, it should come in the
area of school bond indebtedness on the basis that everyone will
share in making up that difference as opposed to reducing only
funding to municipalities.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
KENAI, ALASKA that the State of Alaska, through :its legislative
and administrative branches of government retain at full funding
municipal assistance and revenue sharing to forestall any major
local tax increase that would result from the reducing said
funds.
PASSED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, this 7th day
of December, 1988.

FROM: Keith Kornelis, P.W. Director
DATE: 12/01/88
FOR: City Council Meeting of December 7, 1988
SUBJECT: Construction Bid for the project:
Renovation of the Kenai Municipal Airport Terminal_91do.
Page K-1 and K-2 of the contract documents on the above subject
project is the Kenai Peninsula Borough's Tax Compliance
Certificate. This is part of the bidding documents that need to
be completed and turned in at the time of the bid. At the bid
opening it appeared that Titan Construction, Inc. was the apparent
low bidder. A copy of the Titan Construction, Inc. Tax Compliance
Certificate is attached. On the bottom of the first page, K-1, is
a note, "This form must be signed on the next page by the Kenai
Peninsula Borough Finance Department personnel". Please notice
that page K-2 has not been completed nor signed by the Borough.
After the bid opening I called the KPB sales tax representative,
No. Dawn Lahmun. Ms. Lahmun stated that the sales tax registration
00996R88 is really a re -sale card number. Me. Lahmun also stated
that Titan Construction had not contacted her concerning this
construction bid. After asking her to search her records, she
found that Titan Construction, Inc. opened an account on March 1,
1988. They failed to file their March 31, 1988 return. Because
of failure to file this return the KPH fined Titan Construction,
Inc. $25.00. Titan Construction, Inc. has never paid the $25.00
fine. Titan Construction, Inc. did file their June and September
return and their filing showed -0- sales tax collected.
I asked Ms. Lahmun how she would have filled out the form, had
Titan Construction approached- the Borough.- She_ said- -that _ she Woul4
have filled it out saying that Titan Construction, Inc. was not in
compliance because of owing the $25.00 fine and their need to still
file the March 31, 1988 return. it is also unknown how much money
Titan Construction owes on their March 31, 1988 return.

Collins Construction and Consolidation Enterprises also did not
properly complete the Tax Compliance Certificate. Neither one of
these companies had the KPH sign that they were in compliance.
Prior to the bid opening the Public Works Department and the
architect had many bidders ask about not completing or waiving some
of the requirements of the Tax Compliance Certificate. Our
explanation to them was to carefully read the bid documents and to
fully complete all documents that were to be turned in with their
,
- - - - -
bid.
It is very important that this construction project be awarded very
shortly after the December 7th Council meeting. Because time is
of essence I have prepared two resolutions awarding this project.
One resolution awards the project to Titan Construction, Inc.,
while the other awards the project to G & S Construction, the next
low bidder. The resolutions will go in the Council packet
tomorrow, Friday, December 2nd. If the City Attorney's office
-
feels that Titan Construction, Inc., Collins Construction and
Consolidated Enterprises bids should be declared non -responsive
then they should recommend giving the project to G & S
Construction. I have also attached page D-4 from the Instructions
to Bidders where 5.2.1 states "The owner shall have the right to
.
I reject ... or to reject a bid which is in any way incomplete or
irregular."
We need a decision from the City Council at their next meeting on
December 7, 1988. I am sorry there isn't much time but perhaps
something can be hand carried in to Council at the meeting.

Dear Mr. Kornelis,

i cost for the referenced project as outlined
The estimated construction c p j
in Cost Synopsis No. 1 of my August 30, 1988 letter and modified as
directed by the City is as follows:
Base Bid $701,777
Roofing Additive Alternate $18,000
Total Estimated Construction cost $719,777"
After reviewing the eleven bids submitted with you yesterday, there
were three bids found non -responsive which are: Collins Con-
struction, Consolidated Enterprises, and Titan Construction Inc.. I
recommend that these bids be rejected for not properly completing
T
the requested Tax Compliance Certificate on page F-2 of the Bid
Proposal Form. The Instruction to Bidders Article 5.2.1, Rejection of
F
Bids, states that "The Owner shall have the right to reject any or all
'
Bids and to reject a Bid not accompanied by any required bid
security or by other data required by the Bidding Documents, or to
reject a Bid which is in any way incomplete or irregular." I had
numerous calls from bidders prior the to the bid date about the Tax
4.1
;..
Compliance Certificate and I directed each to complete the forms as
requested in the Bid Proposal Form. Allowances should not be made
for bids which do not submit the required documents in accordance

;✓ City of Kenai
DATE: December 7, 1988 +
RE: Construction Bids for the Project:
RENOVATION OF TH RENA MUNICIPAL AIRPORT
TERMINAL BU LI DINGS
Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director, has requested an opinion
!
from the Legal Department as to whether three bids should be
_
rejected for being non -responsive with regard to the above-
referenced project. The bids in question are from: (a) Titan
Construction (the apparent low bidder); (b) Collins Construction;
{
and (c) Consolidated Enterprises. Because Titan Construction was
the apparent low bidder, this memorandum focuses on it. However,
E.
the reasoning is equally applicable to Collins Construction and
k.
Consolidated Enterprises.
The bidding documents required to be filled out by contractors
- - =
included a document entitled, "Tax Compliance Certificate." A
portion of Page R-1 of that document reads in the first
paragraph:
"No contract will be awarded to any individual or
business who is found to be in violation of the Borough
t
Code of Ordinance in the several areas of taxation."
According to a December 1, 1988 memorandum of Keith Kornelis,
-------'
several -bidders approached the Public Works Department and-the--
r
E
�
f
f�
i
i
i
architect about waiving the requirement of the Tax Compliance
Certificate. They were told that the document had to be
completed in full and turned in with the bid package. The
position was that no waivers would be allowed.
The Tax Compliance Certificate was improperly filled out by Titan
Construction (Attachment U . First, the sales tax registration
is incorrect on Page Kr-1 of the document. Second, Page K-2 of
the document was not filled out at all, in addition to the caveat
at the top of Page K-1. On the bottom of Page K-1 is the
following note:
"This form must be signed on next page by Kenai
Peninsula Borough Finance Personnel."
Mr. Kornelis contacted the Kenai Peninsula Borough and spoke with
Ms. Lahmun, sales tax representative. She informed him that
Titan Construction had opened an account on March 1, 1988, but
did not file a return for that month. Because of the failure to
file, Ms. Lahmun could not tell what Titan Construction owed for
March. The Borough fined Titan Construction $25.00 for failure
to file a return for March. Titan Construction has never paid
that fine. Mr. Kornelis asked No. Lahmun how she would have
filled out the form if she had been approached by Titan
Construction. She informed Mr. Kornelis that she would have
written that Titan Construction was not in compliance. The
reason being that Titan Construction had not paid the $25.00 fine
nor filed the return for March.
Page D-4 of the Instructions to Bidders states in Article 5.2.1:
5.2.1 The Owner shall have the right to reject any or
all Bids and to reject a Bid not accompanied by any
required bid security or by other data required by the
Bidding Documents, or to reject a Bid which is in any
way incomplete or irregular.
However, such a clause does not give the City of Kenai authority
to declare a bid to be non -responsive for a non -material
variance. Centric Corporation v. Barbarosa & Sons, Snc., 521
P.2d 874 (Wyo. 1974).
The general rule in Alaska is that to declare a bid non-
responsive, there must be a material variation from the terms of
the Invitation to Bid. King v. Alaska State Housing Authority,
512 P.2d 007 (Alaska 1973). A material variation is usually
defined as one which "gives the bidder a substantial advantage
over other bidders and thereby restricts or stifles competition."
King, Supra at 892, citing, 10 McQu.illin,---Law Of. Municipal --
Corporations, Section 29.65, 3rd Ed. 1966; State v. Bowers Office
-Products, Inc.-, 621 P.2d 11, 14 (Alaska 1980).

Determination by a public agency of the responsiveness is subject
to judicial review to determine whether there was a reasonable
basis for the agency's decision. Belly v. Zamarello, 486 P.2d
906, 917-918 (Alaska 1980) .
The remedies available to an unsuccessful bidder who successfully
litigates the award of a public bid are twofold. First, the
challenger may receive the bid preparation costs, not loss of
potential profits. Ring V. Alaska State Housing Authority, 633
P.2d 256 (Alaska 1901). Second, the challenger may enjoin
performance of an improperly awarded contract. Alaska
Construction Law, at 62, 63 (5th Ed. 1985).
A public agency may by statute or ordinance establish the payment
of taxes as a condition precedent to receiving a bid award.
Brazie v. Cannon & Wendt Slectric Co., 405 P.2d 281 (Az. Ct.App.
1965). A contracting agency may not waive compliance with any
bidding requirements made mandatory by statute. George & Lynch,
Inc. v. Division of Parks & Recreation, 465 A.2d 345 (Del. 1983).
In City of Opa-Locke v. Trustees of Plumbing Ind. Pro. F., 1983
So.2d 29 (Fla. Ct.App. 1966), Metropolitan Dade County had an
ordinance requiring a certificate of competency to be submitted
with any bid to a public agency. The low bidder on a project for
the City of Opa-Locka did not submit the required certificate.
The City waived the requirement and awarded the contract to the
low bidder. The Florida Fifth District Court of Appeals reversed
that award, stating on Page 32:
"...To allow the city to permit bidders to qualify
after their bids are accepted would circumvent the
intent of S. 10-3(b). It would also be an unfair
advantage over those who must prequalify. If the city
may in its discretion waive this section it would be
conducive to favoritism by allowing some bidders to
qualify after their bids are accepted while refusing to
consider bids of others on the ground that they did not
prequalify. (Footnote omitted.)
In the instant case, the requirement for a Tax Compliance
Certificate was a policy decision of the Kenai City Council,
rather than an ordinance. However, the reasoning of the Florida
Court is applicable. The policy was clearly stated on the bid
invitation documents. Furthermore, the architect and Public
Works Department stated to several potential bidders that the
provision must be complied with and would not be waived. To
waive it-now_would.give anunfairadvantage to the three bidders .
who failed to comply with the bid invitation. See, Chris Berg,
rnc. v. State, Dept. of Transp., 680 P.2d 93, 95, 96 (Alaska
1984) (Rabinowitz, J. concurring) .
-3-
J
Had the City not possessed such a clear and unwavering policy,
the defect would probably have been non -material and therefore,
the bid would have been responsive. see, Centric Corporation v.
Barbarosa & Sons, Inc., 521 P.2d 874 (Wyo. 1974); Martel
Construction, Inc. v. Montana State Board of Examiners, 668 P.2d
222 (Mont. 1983).
It is the opinion of the Legal Department that the City of Kenai
should continue the policy it has maintained throughout the bid
process and require the Tax Compliance Certificate to be fully
completed when the bid documents are opened. Therefore, the
Legal Department recommends the bids in question be declared non-
responsive.

RE: Letter from Titan Construction's Attorney
This afternoon at approximately 3:20 p.m., I received a letter by
telefax machine from R. Eldridge Hicks who represents Titan
Construction (a copy is attached). This memo is a brief response
to his four assertions.
1. Mr. Hicks asserts that there was nothing "in these
Instructions to Bidders indicates What other documents are
'required to be submitted."' A careful reading of the
Instructions to Bidders reveals that in two places, it is
mentioned what documents need to be submitted. In both those
places, the Tax Compliance Certificate is mentioned. Those
places are 1) Major Index; and 2) Page F-2.
2. Mr. Hicks' client obviously knew exactly which
documents had to be submitted since he submitted all seven of the
required documents. His argument is that he did not know they
had to be completed. The Tax Compliance Certificate clearly
states that the document has to be signed by a Borough
representative.
3. In Paragraph 3 of Mr. Hicks' letter, he states it was
reasonable to interpret the bid documents the way his client did.
I disagree. Eleven companies submitted bids to -.the City.. Eight
of those submitted the correct tax documents. Some of those
companies did have questions on how to correctly -fill the tax
- documents. Those companies possessed the good business sense to
call and ask now to do it correctly. It seems from the
performance of the group of bidders as a whole, it was reasonable
�. to correctly fill out the tax documents.

vent will certainly come as news to the Borough. Mr.
locked with the Borough after the bid opening and was
Borough Sales Tax Representative that Titan
en, Inc. was not in compliance with the tax ordinances.
cites no legal for his assertion that Titan's bid may
ssified as non -responsive.
, there is nothing in Mr. Hicks' letter which changes
n of the Legal Department regarding Titan's bid.

Timothy J. Rogers, Req.
City Attorney
City of Kenai
210 Pidalgo Avenue
Ksnai, Alaska 99611
Res Titan Construction, Inc.
Kenai Municipal Airport Terminal Building
Dear Mr, Rogeral
As I indicated by telephone, I have been retained
by Titan Construction, Inc. to pursue whatever action is
necessary to anaure that it rocoivos an award of the above -
referenced construction project as the low bidder, in compli-
ance with Kenai Municipal Code g 7.15.040.
In arriving at your decision to the City Council
regarding the responsiveness of 111y client's bid, I would ask
YOU to please consider carefully the following analyses:
1. The Instructions to Bidders at page 0-3
provides that the submission of the bid must include "any
other documents required to be submitted with the Bid...."
flowever, nothing in these Instructions to Bidders indicates
what other documents are "required to be submitted."
Similarly, the Supplementary instructions to
Bidders tails to identify the Tax Compliance Certificate as a
documont that is "required to be submitted with the Hid...."
Only the bid security is mentioned at page E-3 as an addi-
tional document "required to be submitted with the Bid." No
other documents are identified.
In short, neither the Instructions to bidders nor
the Supplementary Instructions to Bidders ever mentions the
Tax Compliance Certificate as one of the documents "required
to be submitted with the Did."
x. The oily reference to the Tax Compliance
Certificate as a document for submittal is found at page F•2
Of the Did -Proposal itself, not in the Instructions, while
t
IF
f
L
Timothy J. Aogorn, Vaq.
December 7, 1908
Page Z
it is identified there as a document to be submitted "with"
the proposal, nothing in this Section F identities it as a
"required" document as defined in the Section D instructions,
and nothing states the amount of detail with which the Tax
Compliance Certificate must be completed.
3. When one then reviews the Tax Compliance
Certificate itself, it is reasonable to conclude that only
the first page must be completed by the bidder and that the
second page may be completed by the Borough Finance Depart-
ment if and only if submitted later by the City of Kenai
checking on the one low bidder. For example, the second
sentence on the Tax Compliance Certificate states, "No
contract will be awarded to any individual or business who is
found to be in violation of then Borough Code of ordinances in
Ti a several areas of taxation." (Emphasis added.) The word
"found" suggests that there will be a discovery of such a
fact by the City a!_ the bids have been opened.
It is reasonable for a bidder to conclude that the
Kenai Peninsula Borough Finance Department should not be
bothered with eight or ton Certificates of Compliance, when
in fact the bid will only be awarded to one low bidder.
Indeed, we understand that Titan Construction, Inc. was not
the only bidder to interpret the Tax Compliancu Certificate
in this manner. Apparently another bidder did not submit a
Certificate with a Borough signature. A more reasonable•
interpretation is that the Tax Compliance Certificate of the
low bidder (complete with information regarding registration
numbers and real or personal property information) will be
submitted to the Borough by the City after a determination is
made of who that low bidder will be.
4. Finally, and most importantly, Titan Construc-
tion, Inc. did substantially comply with all of the require-
ments for your bid information. All bid information was
submitted in a timely manner, including identification of all
of the required tax compliance information on the Tax Compli-
ance Certificate, except the signature of the borough repre-
sentative on page K-a. It will take only a moment for some
representativo of the City to learn that Titan Construction,
Inc. has always paid all taxes to the Kenai Poninsula Borough
and is in full compliance with all tax ordinances. Such a
minor technicality can never qualify in law for the purpose
Of declaring a low bid "unresponsive."
On behalf .of Vitan-Construction,- Inc.- x respectfully
submit to you and to the City Council that this minor vari-
ance in interpretation of ambiguous bid -instructions should
not result in the City of -Kenai paying $16,000 more to the
second low bidder, nor should it result in Titan

Construction, Inc. losing this construction job. Article
5.3.1 provides, "The Owner shall have the right to waive any
informality or irregularity in any Did or Bids received and
to accept the Did or Bids which, in his judgment, is in his
own best interests."
To avoid any further dispute, additional costs to
either party, and a higher construction cost to the City of
Kenai, I respectfully request that the contract be awarded as
soon as possible. You or any representative of the City can
confirm by a more telephone call that this low bidder is and
always has been in full compliance with all tax ordinances,
A signature from the appropriate borough official can follow
within hours.
I shall remain available to discuss this mutter
further at your convenience.

MAYOR'S COUNCIL ON AGING
November 16, 1988
Senior Center
President Sylvia Johnson Presiding
1. CALL TO ORDER
k* ;
2. ROLL CALL
Present: Sylvia Johnson, Betty Warren, Gene Sipperly, Patrick
Cartee, Fiocla Wilson, Francis Meeks
Absent: Shirley Henley, Roy Moore, Lou Schilling
3. APPROVAL OF AGENDA
Betty Warren asked to add an item to Old Business, Report on Ticket
Sales
MOTION:
Francis Meeks moved approval of the agenda with the addition,
seconded by Gene Sipperly
VOTE: `
Motion passed unanimously
4. APPROVAL OF MINUTES of September 13, 1988
Pat Porter asked that under item F-1 where Clarence Ladd spoke,
the name of Randolf Austin be corrected to Rudy Aust.
The minutes were approved as corrected.
5. OLD BUSINESS
a. Foundation
Pat Porter reported that Articles of Incorporation have been
signed, sent on to the attorney, a fee of $35 was sent with that to
register with the state so we are waiting for that to return.
b. Congregate Housing
Pat Porter: These are two separate items, the congregate housing
and the building expansion. These are items we need to get on the
bandwagon and support as a unified group. The City of Kenai -has -
- --- - - --
listed both of these as priority items on the Capital Improvements
list, the Borough -has listed the congregate housing as -a priority
within the Borough. You are going to have to become very involved {
in lobbying for these two if you expect them to materialize. This
is a very tight year for funding through the legislature, but
nothing is impossible. It just depends on how badly we want
L
t

a
these projects and how much time and effort you as board
members and individuals are willing to put into the effort.
There may come a time when you will have to make a choice
between the expansion and the congregate housing. The
.
expansion is worth is about $500,000 and the congregate
housing is worth about $1 million.
,"-
There will be a meeting at 2:30 P.M. with legislators on 12/8/88.
Paul Fischer, Mike Navarre, Swackhammer, Jim Zawacki, Mike
Szymanski, and Jay Kerttula have been invited since the congregate
housing is a regional project. Paul Fischer and Jim Zawacki have
,.
accepted. We need to have as many seniors here as possible.
• s;
Pat Porter presented the plans for the expansion of the center.
President Johnson asked to go on the record stating that there is a
committee from the Center that met with the architect and this
.,
drawing is the result of a lot of time spent.
d. Sign
'
Lee Baily has been working on the sign and hopes to start
c
construction on it in the spring.
e. Sale of Tickets to the Style Show
-
Betty Warren reported that she sold 25 tickets at the Chamber of
Commerce meeting today as a representative of the Kenai Senior
Connection group. Total tickets sold number about 50 and asked for
-
(i
help in making deliveries and collecting money. We should try to
sell 100 tickets to make this fund raiser a success.
There will be no host cocktails from 6-7 P.M. put on by Lou
Schilling. The g tickets for the cocktails will be $3.00 and the
seniors will be getting a portion of that as a donation.
The fund raiser is to help supplement the meals served at the
center. There are 2,000 more meals served than we are funded for
by the City. Pat Porter explained that the Kenai Senior Connection
¢
and the City funding are separate.
6. NEW BUSINESS
a. Policy

1. Day Care Transportation

President Johnson a lained-that -a
xP packet of information had been
......---.----._-.--
passed out regarding the policy at the Forget -Me -Not Day Care
Center by the Director Liz.
Pat Porter stated that there is a slight change which was a
recommendation that she had made in response to problems and they
"
would like to have you approve. It is under the transportation

portion item d. The problem is that when the elderly were taken to
the home there was no one there to care for them and there are some
that cannot be left without supervision and yet it is not the
responsibility of the adult day care program to provide services
after a certain time. The new portion of the policy would read,
"In the event that the care giver or family is not at home when the
participant arrives home from the Center the driver will poet a
note on their door that they arrived at such time and have returned
to the Center with the participant. The driver will radio the
Center that they are returning the participant and notify the care
giver. The family care giver shall make arrangements for picking
up the participant at the Center. A $10 per hour -fee will be
charged for the time the participant has to wait at the Center for
pick up. Pamilies and care givers shall be made aware of this
policy at the time of admittance to the day care program. A signed
copy of this policy will be placed in each participants chart."
Pat Porter: I recommended that because people began to take
advantage of those type of services unless there is some type of
penalty. Because we can't just go off and leave the frail elder I
feel it's someone's responsibility to pay for the extra care being
caused because they weren't home.
Gene Sipperly: I feel it's no more than fair that it be done.
Pat Cartee: It's no more then fair that they at least leave a
notice for somebody who can look after them if they're not going to
(~'
be there.
Pat Porter: I think you should give that option of waiving it but
I didn't want her to put it in the policy in case she did have
problems. Some of these people would expect her to accept any
excuse they gave her. Pat Cartee: You can handle that on an
individual basis.
MOTION:
Betty Warren moved to approve the policy change with the
stipulation that the director have the right waive the fee in an
emergency and her individual discretion, seconded by Pat Porter.
VOTE:
Motion passed unanimously
2. Donations
Pat Porter explained that at the next meeting you will be asked to
approve a donation policy in view of things that are donated to the
Center. -The--attorney.-will _write that up. - For _instance, who- .will
determine whether it goes to the City or the Senior Connection. A
written policy will help.
b. Senior Card Charge
Betty Warren explained that in the past when people come in to get
their Kenai Senior Citizens card with the sticker. We have never
M
COUNCIL ON AGING
November 16, 1988
Page 4
asked for any proof of age or identification. There have been
people in the community who have been using these cards for
identification other than at the Center. I feel that if we don't
ask for identification, these people who have been using these
cards to say they are 60 years old when perhaps they aren't.
Also, we have been picking up the cost of these cards. I think we
should charge $1.25 to $2.00 in order to help with the cost.
MOTION:
Betty Warren moved to charge $1.50 for these cards and that we ask
for proof of age, seconded by Pat Porter
VOTE:
Motion passed unanimously
7. PUBLIC COMMENT
a. Clarence Ladd
This portion of the minutes are verbatim. A * indicates words that
are inaudible within the text due to the taping system.
Clarence Ladd: I asked for an agenda and Pat was good enough a few
days ago to have one, somebody else wants an agenda. I was trying
to talk to four of the members setting over here now, and ask 'em
some things, I was just curious, I been gone for three weeks, I
been to the Philippines, I come back four days ago. Why did Sylvia
Johnson, childish I thought, come up behind me with a mike and
stuck a mike around me, that was ok, I'll talk in any mike or any
public place here ah, with a clear conscience. Anyway I thought it
was very childish, I tried to turn my back and she followed me
around, I was asking friends the Meeks for an agenda, thanks to
Francis she let me look at it there.
I have nothing to say here today, there's some things that I've
always had in my little note, things that could improve all the
seniors around here and I'll, since I got back I've heard many many
things, I don't think there's much truth to it, but I do understand
there's an investigation going on here at the Kenai Senior Center
and I guess that's why Sylvia Johnson's very cold *, Betty Warren
yesterday.*. They -were very cold to Clarence there, I'm a big boy
I can take it. See if Clarence is the only one here today * to be
heard here.
Then I also heard this investigation is going, Sylvia Johnson,
Betty Warren, and our director Pat Porter here. So I guess I was
*,-Clarence made a couple -of acquisitions (pronounced acquisitions,__.
probably means accusations) at City Hall and I don't know really
just what -they- mean by -that. - -But here -two -months ago at your
meeting in here, Clarence did get up and spoke on a few things and
especially small claims deal that turned into the court * $204.00
so I've heard these acquisitions here that I made the .... Pat
maybe you can explain to me what is .. takes ... explain to the

members and the senior citizens what is taking place here, big
Kenai investigation well something's wrong here. And on the record.
Tape Change
�•
"
Pat Porter: Well, I'll just make a couple of comments.
Clarence Ladd: Yes
-
Pat Porter: First of all Clarence you are very aware of the fact
y "
that the investigation is going on.
Clarence Ladd: I haven't heard.
Pat Porter: The Alaska State Troopers had been to visit you before
you left for the Philippines, they had been to visit a couple other
-
senior citizens that you referred them to so you're very aware of
1.,
what was going on before you left.
:.....:..........:...__-._. .{
Clarence Ladd: So you say. About what.
Voices are overlapping and inaudible individually.
Pat Porter: Well, I think that, well, it's still under
investigation, there are criminal charges, which I have had to get
outside counsel for and I don't really feel that this is an
appropriate time to answer or to go into that until I have been
totally exonerated from those charges. So at this time, unless my
attorney advises me I will not make any comments regarding anything
that has anything to do with the case.
Clarence Ladd: Ok Pat, thanks. The difference before when I come
back the newspaper even wanted a statement from me. No comment.
Because I really really don't know what's behind it but I do know
two months ago when I set in a meeting and asked about the small
r`
claims property $204 I was plainly told by you Pat there it's none
7
of my business, and I agree, * business that's going on and I think
many things come out of that there since that by me as another
person, checking through the court records, that's it's certainly
-
open to the public over there. And I happentojust come in on
that. Something else got involved while some bigger money we won't
go in and discuss this bigger money but that we won't go in and
-
discuss this big money, that money was floating around. Police
records show that the four persons over here at the Center and I
for one and other people that was at City Hall at that time was
_
very much concerned about it and I think * for saying it's none of
our business. We are seniors and we are concerned about the whole
`-
Center, Pat I'll look right at you, Sylvia, Betty, if you can't say
- - -. - - - -
to Clarence you -never said anything ng or -run this Center down, all--
- -- - --- -
four of you, you do a beautiful job here but I would like to hear,
the -people, seniors to be -heard a -little -more, -I -made a -comment one
- - ---
time I had something to say to the Center 'cause I got accused of
by people, if I had it, I was told, I denied that, I was plainly
told that I couldn't talk to people in the dining room because they
COUNCIL ON AGING
November 16, 1988
Page 6
don't understand. Well, Clarence is one and Clarence don't
understand things so he comes in and asks questions and gets simple
answer.
Betty, I'm looking right at you, I ask questions to you and you
direct me to our director. Sylvia this is directly to us * Sylvia
there. So that's all I have to say on that. There is some minor
things, very very important here that I'm very much concerned about
the Center and I certainly hope that this here Council on Aging
four people setting here today plus the two officers setting right
behind me now. What I would like to see more of the Mayor's
Council on Aging show up here and some have missed four meetings.
*. But they don't have to show up I don't say nothin' about that
as long as we got a committee here of senior citizens and they will
speak up for theyselves and be willing to listen to Clarence and
listen to some of the *. I said before, here I'm going into a
speech so I'll make it short but many of 'em don't come to these
Mayor's Council on Aging to be heard because they cannot be heard
and they are plainly told to shut up or plainly told to or you only
have three minutes, there's Betty there says president * Clarence
only has three minutes and shut up, well Clarence said he'd go to
City Hall and he says, two months ago Clarence says thank you Pat
thank you something like that. And I go to City Hall. So I guess
Clarence ... *.
So if there's investigation going here I'm very much concerned
about it and I certainly not going to bad mouth this Center over
here or the people. And if Sylvia Johnson and Betty Warren don't
want to speak to Clarence, Clarence is a big boy. Clarence can go
to church on Sunday Clarence has a clear conscience and he does
feel he is a Christian and more than I can say for certain folks.
Thank you.
Betty Warren: Madam Chairman. The Alaska State Troopers and
Sylvia and I spent several hours with * and about 2 1/2 hours, it
was all taped, because I personally will not be at a meeting with
some persons unless it is taped, because there have been times in
the past statements have been made that then you have to go to
other persons that were at the meeting, very difficult to have
total recall, on some of the accusations that are made. I did talk
to the State Troopers and we have an investigator here at the
Center and he did say that this was a criminal investigation and we
were not to discuss it with other persons. So, um, I personally
will not discuss the accusations that were made by Mr. Ladd and
Mrs. Vozar because I, I was told by the State Troopers not to do
Q.o, . and .l was also -told ..to come to the Council .with .that so that is
why we are not making statements today and I am sure Mrs. Porter
was probably given the same advise.
I will say for the record I have no intentions of talking to Mr.
Ladd. I do not wish to have anything to do with him. It is my own
personal opinion that he has been very destructive, that he has
taken away from the senior citizens that come to this center the
time that the director and the assistant director spend helping
L
w�rr
V

Page 7
other seniors. If there are any seniors in this community who do
not come here for whatever reasons Mr. Ladd has stated, I am fairly
well known in this community, Mrs. Johnson is and other persons on
this board are, I've known Francis Meeks for 20 or 30 years, I've
known Fiocla for that long and no one to my knowledge goes to them
and makes the accusations that were made. So I feel, as a free
white American citizen, 70 years of age, that I do not have to talk
to anybody that I feel is trying to destroy the Center. This is my
own personal feeling and you do not have to agree with me. But I
do not intend to talk to Mr. Ladd. And he is not to call me Betty.
My friends call me Betty. I'm Mrs. Warren.
Pat Porter: Sylvia, only one correction I would like to make, I'm,
I feel that I wouldn't want to have it in the minutes without a
correction being made that anyone was ever not allowed to comment
or speak before the Council on Aging. I can't remember maybe they
have been silenced in the past but for whatever reason by either
the board members. I don't know can you even remember of anyone
who wanted to speak before the Council and was not allowed that
privilege. I think that you need to go on record as, as, not
agreeing with the statement that was made.
Betty Warren: I think the members of this board should state their
name and whether they agree with that or not. Starting with
Fiocla.
Fiocla Wilson: Inaudible
Betty Warren: It won't be on the tape if you don't speak louder.
Fiocla Wilson: Inaudible.
Patrick Cartee: I'm Patrick Cartee and I think everyone has, I
can't think of anyone * ever been turned down, but I * further than
it should have been and I *.
Francis Meeks: I'm Francis Meeks and I don't, like I said I, I've,
there have been some people that have gotten quite * and ... maybe
repeat themselves. But otherwise I haven't spoken to or remember
anyone that wasn't able to speak.
Gene Sipperly: I agree. Nobody has been turned down to my
knowledge. That wished to speak.
Sylvia Johnson: I'm Sylvia Johnson and * and I've been on the
Council on Aging for approximately twelve or thirteen years and no
one has ever been turned down that's requested an opportunity to
speak before the Council -1 do know that I asked Mr. Ladd one time
when he went into a tirade and was bad mouthing people that were
not here, I told him -that -he -could not do this, -I would not allow
it, I was presiding officer and if he cared to speak on what he was
supposed to speak on he would be allowed to speak and he was not to
bad mouth anyone that was not here. And I will not allow anyone, I
don't care who it is to do that while a public meeting while I am
in

chairman and in charge of. And so, I feel I did the right thing.
I do not feel that I have to defend myself for doing something that
was, because he lost his manners I thought that, I was not out of
line by reminding him that good manners went first. And that's all
I care to say. But I've been at meetings, I don't think I've
missed very many meetings, in my thirteen years and I've been many
many subjects brought up by many many people and there's a limit of
time to a subject they want to speak to maybe five minutes or ten
minutes, whichever *. So anyone that has something that has
something to say is allowed to say it. And if we have nothing
further.
Betty Warren:- Madam Chairman 1-just would like to say that, since
I will not speak to Mr. Ladd, yesterday he told me that I was not a
Christian. And
Clarence Ladd: An active one.
Betty Warren: I, I do resent that. I think that in the last 17
years of my relationship with this Center and other activities in
this community that I have never been accused of not being a
Christian, of not being a * and I will not tolerate such horrible
accusations *.
Sylvia Johnson: I, I need a motion for adjournment (person making
motion inaudible) second (also inaudible)

Kenai, Alaska 99611
Dear Billt
At the November 15th meeting of the Bicentennial Board of Directors, we discussed
several items, many of which involve coordination and approval by the City of Kenai.
Two of these items aces
(1) The possibility of street signs in the downtown Kenai area reflecting the
"English-Russian-Dena'Ina" spellings. If approved by the City administration,
we would proceed to obtain the proper spellings for each street selected.
(2) In a presentation by Mr. Alan Boraas of Kenai Peninsula College, the Board
was advised that Mr. Boraas is considering an archaeological dig in the area
of the Kenai Municipal Park off Forest Drive, which is considered to be the
site of the original village at the arrival of the Russian Fur Traders on
August 20, 1791. Therefore, we would ask that should the City of Kenai be
considering any upgrades, etc* to the Park, that the historical significance
,,. be included in the plan and that Mr. Boraas be contacted and his pending pro-
ject be coordinated with any efforts on the part of the City.
We are excited about Kenai's heritage and are looking forward to working with the
City of Kenai in preparation for our Bicentennial celebration.

loan to the Alliance Bank happens to be the physical location of
the Tesoro Service Station on Gusty S/D Lot 1. Obviously, in order
to collateralize that the bank requires an assignment of the lease,
since it's on city property. We came to the City Manager's office
yesterday with the Alliance Bank version of the lease. The City
Manager and City Attorney looked at it in preparation for this
evening. The City Attorney has made some recommendations and we
accept these recommendations and modifications as they have been
made and request your approval.
Legal Assistant Graves: The only comments I have are contained in
a memo sent out to Council by -Miss Howard. The Alliance Bank
assignment, had we agreed, would have made us indemnify the bank
for any losses it might have suffered as a result of this
assignment. Obviously I and the City Manager felt that was
completely unacceptable. The other major item we cut out was
clause it waiving any claims we might have against the property or
against the Fergueons.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Monfor moved that we accept the assignment of lease
with the amendments from the Attorney's Office for paragraphs 3 and
11, seconded by Councilwoman O'Reilly
VOTE:
Motion passed with Unanimous Consent
2. Mr. Jack Brown Resolution for Marine Transportation Svstem
Mr. Brown: I attended the infamous meeting in Girdwood at Max's
Bar & Grill. There were two items of significance for our area;
a) the first is this resolution that I am going to introduce to the
Assembly on November 15th. I am asking for your support on this.
I feel that if it were introduced right now it would be a tight
vote. Soldotna City Manager gave me 100% endorsement. The
Soldotna Chamber of Commerce is inviting me to speak Tuesday and
tomorrow I will speak at the North Peninsula Chamber of Commerce.
I believe that we're going to get support from those organizations.
Basically, this feasibility study is being done in conjunction with
Mat -Su and Anchorage Boroughs and if you will notice in section
one, the Kenai Peninsula Borough is going to pay $12,500 and that is
on a per capita basis. Anchorage has voted to pay the bulk of the
cost and that is $75,000. The Kenai and Mat -Su Borough would split
the remaining $25,000 or $12,500 each. I'm not here asking for
money.
We had two gentlemen from the Alaska Marine Highway there and they
explained their operation to us and we mentioned right from the
beginning that this projected -ferry -system may or may noti go under
the Alaska Marine Highway system. We want to do the feasibility
study and then see if it would be better served by private sector.
I got a sense from many Anchorage and Mat -Su assembly people that
is
71
i
r
..KENAI CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 2, 1988
PAGE 3 {
they would prefer it was private sector. I don't have an opinion
yet, I want to the see the study.
The ferry system serves 400,000 people annually of which 80% during
the summer are tourists. Their annual budget is $63 million, their
revenues are $33 to $34 million so you can see that they are being
subsidized heavily by the state. One of the highlights of this
proposal, if we do an Anchorage/Kenai/Mat-Su run is that it
potentially could be self supporting which would make it the only
route on the ferry system that is. The closest one that is self
supporting is the Puget Sound run which is 90% self supporting. If
we do elect to go under the Alaska Marine Highway system we could
offer them something not currently being offered.
In looking at some early study projections, it looked like there
would be at least 80 truck loads per week that could be shipped
from Anchorage to the Kenai Peninsula. They are currently paying
$2.00 per mile or $632 per truckload that comes down from
Anchorage. They feel that they could reduce that price to $230 per
truckload by using the ferry.
The 80% tourists that use the system, in my opinion, in the
Kenai/Nikiski area we really don't tap the tourism market to any
extent and the ferry system has a lot of exciting possibilities for
us. Whether it ends in Nikiski or Kenai both communities are going
to benefit. If it terminates in Nikiski, there is one road and
they have to come through Kenai.
There are three modes of transportation looked at right now; the
ferry, the hydrofoil, and hovercraft. Again I don't have an
opinion.
I feel that this study is going to be done whether the Kenai
Peninsula Borough participates or not and I want to be in on the
ground floor. I think Anchorage and Mat -Su see a lot of potential
uses, they're looking at the west side of Cook Inlet, the coal
development. Obviously if they start the coal development and
we're not involved the workers aren't going to live here, they're
going to live in Anchorage or Mat -Su.
Councilman McComsey: Would this ever be run to Homer. Mr. Brown:
One of the concepts are that you could have a triangle _ferry system
connecting with Homer and/or Seward. Councilman McComsey: I can
see one thing that this might be good for would be the tourist
because they can come down on the ferry and drive back the other
way. Mr. Brown: I read a study the other day of the 10 top areas
that were visited by tourists in Alaska and I think the Kenai
Peninsula Borough ranked 9. 1 think the ferry system would
-catapult us up.
Councilwoman O'Reilly:-- Is the -discussion about -possibly -ferry - -
system during the tourist season and one of these other
transportation means during the rest of the season? Answer from
Mr. Brown yes. Both will be looked at. one will be strictly for
L

the tourist season and the other that appears to appeal to most of
us would be a year 'round operation. If the private sector does it
my feeling is that it would operate mainly during the tourist
_
season only. The exciting thing about this is that all of us are
going to have equal input. Anchorage has made every effort to make
-
sure that Mat -Su and Kenai are in concurrence with anything they
do. They are proposing to form a three person board that would
oversee this first study so we would have the same input as
Anchorage and Mat -Su.
Mayor Williams: I think it's unique that we have an opportunity to
participate with the Borough in this study, not personally from the
participation of the city but financially with the Borough in that
--
.
part of our tax money will be used for it. It's for a project that
,i
could conceivably benefit the City of Kenai. I'm not sure what the
meaning will be whether they will wind up in a private concern that
wants to fund the ferry themselves and come back and ask for help
:'.
from the state or if they're looking at an extension of the Marine
Highway System.
Mayor Williams: Relative to the Marine Highway System, to my
3
memory it was never allowed to run up the Cook Inlet to Anchorage
because it paralleled an existing federally funded highway system.
Was that discussed. Mr. Brown: Yes it was. A representative from
Senator Stevens' office, Lisa Sutherland was there. In fact there
'
is federal funding available now under the Urban Mass
Transportation Act for that very thing. In the lower 48 they are
funding ferry system that parallel major highway systems and I
guess part of the rationale is cutting down on pollution. There is
a commitment from Senator Stevens' office to work from federal
+
standpoint on this project. Mayor Williams: So we could
conceivably see the Malaspina run up Cook Inlet.
Mayor Williams: How does Council feel about backing a resolution
of this sort.
Councilwoman Monfor: I especially like it because it isn't going
to cost any money. I would have no problem supporting his
resolution. Perhaps we'll have a bicentennial ferry from it.
Mayor Williams: Will this require a specific resolution from us or
-
can we just, as a matter of record, indicate our support for this.
Mr. Brown: Either way. I think it would be extremely helpful if
the Borough Clerk was informed either by letter or resolution and
f,
it can go into the Assembly packet as backup material. it would
really strengthen this resolution. Councilwoman Monfor: Mayor,
you will probably have to write a letter on behalf of the Council
since we wouldn't have time to do a resolution.

Mr. Brown: As a point of interest, both boroughs had between 90%
to 100% attendance at the meeting. They also talked about revenue
sharing, the Railbelt Energy Fund, economic development and school
funding. One thing that was very significant, both of the boroughs
were going to pass a resolution wanting to spend the Railbelt
Energy Fund this year on a per capita basis to be distributed to
the three boroughs. Even though I was unofficial, when asked my
thoughts, I objected. They did not pass that joint resolution. I
suggested that we look at a more equitable formula. I do see a
window of opportunity and they've asked us to come up with a
formula by AML. In listening to several of the politicians speak,
it doesn't look like it's going to stay there. My feeling is that
Anchorage is so hungry for the money, Assemblywoman Flynn said we
just want money, we don't care what horse it comes in on. I think
we can deal on a position of strength.
On school funding and revenue sharing; the Municipality of
Anchorage leaned more towards revenue sharing because that was a
significant part of their budget. The other two boroughs lean more
toward school funding because that is 75-80% of our budget. This
was all discussion.
City Manager Brighton: If we were successful in holding municipal
assistance and the revenue sharing, that's liquid money, you can
use that for schools. But if revenue sharing and municipal
assistance are sacrificed for school funding then only the borough
wins and Seward, Homer, Seldovia, Soldotna, and Kenai suffer. If
we hold the revenue sharing the borough can go to the revenue
sharing for their additional school funding. What I'm saying is in
one process, if it goes to school funding then the cities lose.
If it goes to municipal assistance than none of us loses. The
point is school funding goes directly to schools - period. If you
have a short fall on that but we're able to retain municipal
assistance and revenue sharing the Borough also shares in that and
they can take that additional money and put it into the schools.
But if we lose on municipal assistance and revenue sharing the only
source we have is the tax.
Mr. Brown: Most Assembly people don't have that concept,
obviously. I would suggest a meeting with the assembly before they
go down to AML. My understanding is we came out with our
operational priorities last night and our first operational
priority was the school funding. I don't think municipal
assistance and revenue sharing was on the list. There is a broad
difference in view point and I for one suggest the cities be
present and state their case.
City Manager Brighton: In a unified situation such as Anchorage or
- Juneau, --it doesn't snake any difference -but when we-havee-a second -
class borough and home rule cities it makes a tremendous
difference, and I certainly will be willing to come over and talk
because it's logical.

Mr. Brawn: The fish tax was brought up last night and my feeling
was that there were some assembly people that were willing to
r
listen. I don't think anyone wanted to give the cities the 25%
that they were looking for. I would suggest all four cities make a
joint presentation. Mayor Williams had a good point that the
cities do provide a lot of services to the fish processors residing
`'.
in the cities that the borough doesn't. There is a point in
perhaps some of that money coming back to the cities.
;
City Manager Brighton: It was my intention later on in my report
to suggest that the time had come to get the managers and mayors of
the four cities together so that they can go back and talk to their
representatives on the assembly so that they have got all the facts
and there is a strong possibility that we might be able to change
their minds.
a
Y.
Mayor Williams: The Kenai Caucus took a stand on the Railbelt
Energy fund and were very insistent that that fund be retained in
T
order to develop the intertie system between the Bradley Lake
project and our neighbors to the north. The concern being that if
'
we do not have an upgraded tie line it will affect us in two ways,
1) unreliable power to the Kenai Peninsula and 2) we could find
.,_.:4
ourselves in a position of having to pay for Bradley Lake through
rate increases because we are the only users. In all discussions I
heard, that seems to be a very real possibility.
Mr. Brown: I agree, its just a question of whether that money is
going to be there.
,!
Mayor Williams: Again, discussing municipal assistance and revenue
sharing as opposed to the school funding, it would seem that the
wording of a resolution that we would want to introduce or pass
'?
would prioritize the items in that manner with municipal assistance
a
first, revenue sharing fund second, school debt retirement third.
In expressing it in that manner would show our number one priority.
1
I don't know how the borough would view it if it were passed up to
r
them.
Mr. Brown: At least your wishes would be made knowN. Right now I
..
think there's no opposition, everyone is going for school funding.
Mayor Williams: Therefore I would like to ask administration to
l
prepare a resolution regarding municipal assistance, revenue
;j
sharing, and school formula funding and debt retirement in a
r.
prioritized manner that would best benefit the cities interest. I
would also like to have a resolution passed reiterating our desire
--- - - - - -- -
to retain the -Railbelt Energy Fund -for -the -development -of the
intertie system and I would like to have Council consider those
resolutions- and -have them passed to the Assembly and -the- Kenai
Caucus. I realize that probably can't be done prior to AML,
however does Council feel comfortable with those resolutions?
Councilman McComsey: This is a very important issue but it seems
i
like the Assembly is going for school funding and it sounds like
KENAI CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 2, 1988
PAGE 7
perhaps the Assembly people from our area might be in the same
frame. Perhaps we should meet and talk with them soon and see if
we can get our wishes known. Mayor Williams: Do you have any
objections to the resolution? Answer no. Councilman McComsey: But
if we don't let them know our wishes then they're still going to be
thinking the school funding is the most important.
Councilman Smalley: I wonder if there's time for the city mayors
and managers to get together and discuss these issues. Mayor
Williams: Probably not prior to AML. There is a meeting of all
the mayors at AML on another matter and I don't know if there is
time. The Kenai Caucus has not had time to set their meeting yet.
Councilman Smalley: I think it would be advantageous to the city
and to the other cities throughout the Borough to get that
message to the Borough Assembly, perhaps they are not fully aware
of the situation. Mr. Brown: I would say that at least some of
them are not.
Councilwoman Swarner: Would it be better not to include the school
bond indebtedness and list the municipal assistance and revenue
sharing. Mayor Williams: We might be better off showing it as a
priority item for the city and that we are definitely interested
and concerned but we need to show that the first priority is
municipal assistance and revenue sharing. Mayor Williams to City
Manager Brighton, how do you feel about leaving it out.
City Manager Brighton: I think if we leave it out altogether then
we have created a fight between municipalities and boroughs and I
think what we need to do is be as rational and logical as we can in
explaining the situation, that if we're in for a state cut of
revenues, as opposed to only cities having to raise taxes to cover
the cut, it ought to be cut at the borough level so that the tax
raise includes every one in the borough, not just city dwellers.
Mayor Williams: Administration will prepare those resolutions. I
will also look into getting together sometime prior to AHL.

.--_ Seward Hiahwav as #1 Priority
MOTION:
Councilwoman Monfor moved for adoption of Resolution 88-84,
seconded by Councilman McComsey
Mayor Williams called for public comments, there were none.
Councilwoman Monfor: I thought our number one priority was the
Spur Highway, did I miss something.- Mayor Williams: That portion
of the highway between milepost 50 and 65 has been in the works for
a long time and I was under the impression that they let a contract
out on it. I thought they were going to do it this year and I
don't know where it's at. Councilman McComsey: I saw surveyors
this summer.
Councilman Monfor: The only reason I may not vote for this
resolution is that I would hate for anything to disrupt number one
the Spur Highway, especially when I drive over it at least twice a
day. Mayor Williams: I might point out that we have already
passed a resolution setting our number one priority. Councilwoman
Monfor: I think theirs should be the Spur Highway also. Mayor
Williams: I wonder how they would feel about it being called the
number two priority.
Councilwoman Swarner: Who requested this. Mayor Williams: I
think probably it came from Seward from their Council. City Clerk
Ruotsala: Yes, Seward sent a resolution and you suggested putting
it on the agenda and let Council discuss it. Councilwoman Monfor:
Could we not make this number one please?
City Manager Brighton: If you were to pass this as the number one
priority, it's going to make I and the public works director and
the former mayor look pretty silly because every DOT district wide
meeting we've had we have banged the table and said this is the
number one priority, this is the most heavily travelled road
including the Sterling Highway on the entire Kenai Peninsula. If
you were to pass this the next time we go over they are going to
question that. To amend this and have it read a priority to DOT,
would that not perhaps be acceptable to the people who are
requesting it without making it a number one priority.
Councilman Smalley: I think even if we amend it it will leave a
shadow of doubt as to what our priorities are so I would have a
�.: tendency to vote against it.
" Councilman Measles: Where does milepost 50 to 65 start and stop.

City Manager Brighton: By the DOT's own count, the most heavily
travelled road on the Kenai Peninsula is the Spur Highway between
Soldotna and Kenai. The people that travel that road are locals
and are not people from Anchorage going to Homer and I can't believe
that we would sacrifice continuing to support that. Our local
people travel it two and three times per day. I can't believe we
would move something in front of our number one priority. To
support improvement on the Sterling Highway would not put us in a
position of abandoning our number priority. The longer it goes the
more deteriorated that highway is going to become. There is no
indication that the volume of traffic is going to fall off. That
is the road we should really be putting first.

Mayor Williams: With Council's permission I will write a letter to
the City of Seward indicating that we have long since set our

to pass the resolution as written. Council agreed.

Mr. Kornelis sat in on the last meeting, however, we need someone
full time.

as quickly as possible as we have a lot of interest, especially with y.
that five miles of river. The best thing about having Mr. Rainey
on the Board is the fact that he is not a member of Council. The
last time one of the problems of the Board is that it was so top
heavy with bureaucracy and this gives them a citizen plus one that
t lives on the river.
I.'.... Mayor Williams: Let me pose a question. I supported the retaining
of all rights of the lower portion of the river during all of the ,
discussion at the last meeting of the Board. I have since made the +
- statement on various occasions that I am sorry I didn't fight to
retain those rights clear to the city limits. The other day I
posed a question to the city attorney after speaking with the
- people from the Fish & Wildlife Service, the question was, by whose
right and by what authority was the Kenai River Management Board
ever allowed to abrogate the rights of the City of Kenai, a first
class city, over what they should do with their lands on both sides
of the river and it now comes before their attention that we also
own the bottom of the river and that the surface rights belong to
the Coast Guard and the federal government as a navigable waterway.
With all these things combined, where did anyone get the idea that
- — --"-- - -` - they had any right within the City -of Kenai The -City -Attorney- f
said, you have posed questions under which I could research and C
retire finding the answers to, we could litigate this forever, I
believe you have a valid point. I don't recall this City Council
- t

ever giving any kind of authority, approval, recognition, of any E
sort to the regulations that they placed. I know the first Board I
1 ;
was set by legislation and I believe I'm correct in saying that it
was sunsetted, and the next question I asked was by whose authority
did the second one become seated. It was at the request of Neil
-
Johanson. In my opinion, under Title 29 and the Kenai Charter,
.
they have no authority to do anything with that river within the
boundaries of the City of Kenai and we need to bring that to their
attention. It came as a surprise at one meeting when they learned
;.
that the City of Kenai owned the bottom of the river.
PW Director Kornelis: One of the topics they brought up was the
- -
lower five miles of the river. They are very anxious to include
-
{
that in their plan. It as not discussed because the chairman said
that was not on their agenda. Also, in our information is a letter
a
`f.
from the Corps regarding the study of the siltation of the river.
Councilman Measles: How about sending them an official notice of
}
withdrawal of all of that up to the Kenai city limits and let them
litigate it. Mayor Williams: Mr. Chris Garcia has been unable to
tie his boat to a buoy in the river in front of his house, a buoy
he obtained a Corps permit for and he can't move his boat to his
property because he has in excess of 35 horses, yet we gave Waldo
Coyle the submerged rights to that tidelands in front of his home
for the same purpose. Councilman Measles: Withdraw from the
.
management group, withdraw our lands along with it and let them
worry. Mayor Williams: Declare that they have absolutely no
.
authority as far as we're concerned?
5. Library Commission
Councilwoman Monfor: We had a meeting last night and you don't
have the minutes in your packet. We will not be having a meeting
in December. We did not seat a student representative because the
t
application was not done in a timely manner. I will be getting
back with you when the Friends of the Library Christmas reception
will be.

6. Recreation Commission
!�
Councilwoman Monfor: On the minutes of October 11th for Parka &
Recreation Commission, discussion was held regarding the smokers in
front of the Rec Center and the consensus was that nothing would be
done because it goes on outside the building. It seems to that
outside the building is still city property so we should have some
jurisdiction and you can't buy cigarettes if you're not a certain
age, then they shouldn't be able to smoke them there. If we have
to _have cooperation with ..Chief-Ross'-s_men -for a _while then maybe
_-- . - ---_--.-_------ .- --_ ------
that's what we need to do. I do see it as a problem. Sometimes
I'll drive up there and there are five or six students smoking
i
throwing their butts all over.

Parks & Rec Director McGillivray: We have talked about it. Bill
Mussen is the manager and I believe he has been working through the
students and I think a good deal of that out in front of the
building has stopped. I'm not saying the smoking has stopped but
at least they're finding a different area. It is city property and
we do have the right to say they can't but the point I was making
to the Commission was that it is hard for the people inside to also
take care of outside. One adult on duty upstairs inside and if
they are outside running down smokers then they run wild inside.
Councilwoman Monfort I would like to request that if this
continues that we contact Chief Ross to have a couple of his people
drive through periodically and inform those students. Councilman
Smalleyt It is state law as far as having cigarettes. Mayor
Williams: I believe the law was changed to 19 for the use of any
sort of tobacco of any sort. Parks & Rec Director McGillivray: We
do it more on dance nights where we have large groups of kids, but
we have gotten good cooperation from the police department on
having periodic checks through the parking lot. As far as
specifically asking them to do anything about the smoking we
haven't. Councilwoman Monfort If Council asks they will respond.
City Manager Brighton: I can imagine the problems from Chief Ross
when we ask him to enforce the cigarette law. The second problem
we run into is that we're only going to enforce it on city property
that is somewhat discriminatory because the law covers the mall and
schools as well. I think the best way to handle it is the way Mr.
McGillivray has handled it in that they've had pretty good
cooperation. If it looks like its getting out of hand he can
probably get on the phone and take care of it.
Parks & Rec Director McGillivray: We are aware of it and we are
trying to get some of them in a different location. Right out in
front of the building is not a good image.
7_. Planning & Zonina Commission
Councilman Smalley: I reported the minutes of the meeting that we
have before us on October 19th, I don't know if there's a problem
with getting the minutes to the Council but these have been
reported on. A work session was held and work was done on a bed &
breakfast ordinance concept and were going to do the RV at the Game
meeting and found it was an impossible task to get both done. I
would say they are close to drafting an ordinance and should have
one at the next meeting which will be similar to the Soldotna
ordinance. As soon as possible they are going to work on the RV
ordinance.
During the meeting, an approval for a bed & breakfast and guide
service business on South Ames came up. At the very end of the
meeting there was a vote of reconsideration so it will be coming up
again.

Councilwoman O'Reilly: What is the normal procedure for getting
the minutes submitted. Why can't they be written up or is that
idealistic. City Clerk Ruotsala: I did those minutes in addition
to my other services because Janet Loper was not able to come to
the meeting. I did the very best I could and that was the best I
could do. Councilman Smalley: I was referring to the October 26th
minutes. City Clerk Ruotsala: The packet goes out the next Friday
so that means she would have had to do them in two days.
Councilwoman O'Reilly: Is that an unreasonable request to have
them done the next day. City Clerk Ruotsala: yes it really is
because that is not all we do. We do the best we can but there's -
no way we can get them all typed up. We have a secretary that does
all other minutes but she does not do Planning & Zoning nor any -
others that meet during the day. Janet and I split those meetings
and the secretary can't even get them in within a day. It just
can't be done that fast and the secretary has help.
Mayor Williams: I would also mention that we are in the midst of
elections and there is a lot of absentee balloting going on right
now and that takes up a considerable amount of time. City Clerk
Ruotsala: Janet Loper has been doing all the minutes since the
election period started so she's been helping me on that. As soon
as the election is over I will start doing the Council minutes, but
she's had the Planning Commission minutes, Council minutes, plus
all the packets for all commissions and other duties. There is
just no way we can do that the day after the meeting.
Parks & Rec Director McGillivray: I might mention that Councilman
Smalley was talking about the RV ordinance with Planning & Zoning,
it's my understanding that the two commissions will be meeting on
December 14th.
Mayor Williams: I might pass on that Pat Nault is the new chairman
and Margaret O'Reilly is the new vice chairman.
Councilwoman Swarner: I request that the minutes of the Council
and the Commissions get top priority from the secretaries so they
do get in our packets promptly and that be done before other
correspondence. City Clerk Ruotsala: Are you speaking of the
correspondence that is given to me from the Council and the Mayor
and my own. Councilwoman Swarner: Specifically the Mayor and the
Council.
Mayor Williams: One of the problems that we face with the Clerk at
this time is a tremendous amount of effort goes into the election.
I'm hoping that after the election is over if we can bear up
another week, that we may be able to get some backlog cleared up.
We did have an unfortunate accident, Janet Loper did fall down the
stairs and was injured and off work for three days during the time
that these meetings were going on and the minutes were to be out
- and left more of a load on the -Clerk.
City Clerk Ruotsala: Is that the consensus of Council.
Councilwoman Monfor: I agree that that is probably the top
r
.KENAI CITY COUNCIL

'• '�...
priority, Planning & Zoning and Council. Those are the two most
important sets of minutes that we have. Councilman Smalley: Is it
possible they could be brought in the evening of our meeting.
Mayor Williams: As I said, I think we would have had them if it
- _
had not been for the accident. I think Councilwoman Monfor has a
.
legitimate request in that the Council and the Planing Commission
are very important especially at this period of time as we are
watching with enthusiasm in that we are urging them to complete a
:.
couple new ordinances for us.
Councilwoman Monfor: I do realize that this election makes a lot
of difference but I hope that after the first of the year we see a
difference. Even before elections there has been a problem with
-: -
the minutes and we are all aware of it. It's real important that
they're there.

Mayor Williams: I might comment to our engineer that I was
intrigued by their drawing on the back regarding replacement of the
gradient with some other form of retainment and I would like to ask
you if you view that as a good sound engineering system.
PW Director Kornelis: In our case I don't think it would work as
good as gabions which is what was used on our existing facility.
Mayor Williams: Rather than just a straight retaining wall. PW
Director Kornelis: That is correct. Gabions would also be less
expensive.
Councilwoman Monfor: Is this where the old Fisherman's Packing
used to be? Mayor Williams: The map on the back shows where it is
in relation to Columbia Wards. They are just getting into the
phase II.
Mr. Korby Hanes: Inlet Fisheries has requested the Fisherman's
Packing plant. Our proposal is to take over the existing lease and
Planning & Zoning Commission has approved it. Some of these dates
are not correct, we are resubmitting the same material except for
those dates. We have a letter from the Corps of Engineers and all
we have to do for their part is sign our name for the transfer.

Administrative Assistant Howard: You will see in the mutual

rescission of release it was contingent upon Mr. Wade paying an
amount owed which was $776.86 which would be current through
October 31st and they did make that payment.
Councilwoman Monfor: Would you please tell me which piece of land
_
that is in relation to the Chamber building. Administrative
- - ----' -
Assistant Howard: It is on the Chamber aide of Napa Auto. City
Manager Brighton: It is a pie shaped parcel that I don't think is
'
big enough to take a structure on its own. I know that it took us
nearly three years to get it available for lease to Wade. His
original intent was to use it for additional parking.
Councilwoman Monfor: I hope that we will mutually rescind this
lease and that we will keep this property on hold for the
„
bicentennial land committee to look at. Councilman McComsey: I
would agree with that but I would also agree that I believe the
same property is the one with all the wrecked junk cars and cars
that are being worked on. If we're going to take this back they
�.'.
are going to have to clean that up. Isn't that just this side of
that garage. Administrative Assistant Howard: That may be on the
Napa lot, I'm not sure. Councilman Smalley: Right behind that
.
you've got the Bookey property that is going to be cleaned up.
Mayor Williams: I Mould suggest that our building inspector, when
he's making his rounds during the day time makes sure that lot is
cleaned for as so there isn't any junk and that the rescission not
be given until we are sure there isn't any junk on it.

I. ADMINISTRATION REPORTS
1. Mayor
a. I have Parks & Recreation Commission needs one member, answer
no, the Commission is current.
b. I am happy to report that the Commissions are full.
C. At AML the mayors on the peninsula are going to try to get
together and discuss some method whereby we can begin to look at
funding a borough -wide tourism development business and some form
-�
-KENAI CITY COUNCIL --
NOVEMBER 2, 1988
PAGE 18
of funding that would be collectable by the borough and returned
back to the cities similar to that of sales tax. It was the
consensus of Mayor Farnsworth and others that we would discuss
this.
d. I have a request to authorize payment to Mr. O'Reilly for a
Resource Development Council meeting on 20/14 in the amount of $86
"
and Mr. Thomson on 10/20 for $77.50. In requesting these I would
like to bring to your attention that we are attending these RDC
E
meetings regularly. Some time ago we said that if it was going to
cost us $2500 per year we should have some representation there.
Rather than bring the authorization before the Council on a monthly =_
;.
basis, would the Council desire giving a blanket authorization for
expenses for a member of the EDC to attend the RDC meetings '
monthly.
t`
Councilwoman Monfor: I like the idea of the Commissions coming to
;?
us. It gives us control over the travel situation. I'm sure that
we would never turn anyone down but it gives us the control.
-- -
Mayor Williams: We are approving this after the fact that is true. -..
We have had this ongoing discussion with EDC back and forth whether
or not to authorize once a month. If we could get a set pattern it
would be easier.
Councilman Measles: Is it budgeted. Answer yes, it comes from the
EDC budget. Councilman Measles: Could Bill authorize it. City
�i
Manager Brighton: If they are authorized to go Council is going to
z
have to authorize it and I'm not going to pay it until Council
authorizes me to pay it.
Councilwoman O'Reilly: What is the problem with authorizing the
payment after the fact. Mayor Williams: The Council's position
=
has always been that we should know if they are travelling ahead of
time and we should have the right to authorize it prior to. There
have been a couple of occasions where spur of the moment trips are
required and then got the authorization.
i'
Councilman McComsey: They are attending once a month? Mayor
l
Williams: Yes. RDC meets every week in Anchorage but we have
limited our participation to once a month. Councilman Measles:
-
And the Commission decides who is going to attend those meetings.

Mayor Williams: I don't know how they decide who is going.
Councilman Measles: Apparently they went to two in.October. Mayer
Williams: No, Mr. O'Reilly's request is one that he attended with
me. It was for our Economic Development Commission meeting not and
RDC meeting.

MOTION:
Councilman Measles moved the Council authorize the City Manager to
pay one trip per month for whoever attends from the EDC to attend
the RDC meeting provided the money is in the budget, seconded by
Councilwoman Monfor
City Manager Brighton: Would you like to see a report from these
meetings? Councilwoman Monfor: For all this money we're spending
plus $2500 per year. Councilman Measles: I believe that was talked
about some months ago when we started talking about approving these
trips for commissioners, that the Council would receive a report.
I don't think we've ever seen one from anybody.
Mayor Williams will send a letter -to the MDC regarding the
attendance at these meetings, submitting a report, and the proper
method of reimbursement.
MOTION AMENDMENT:
Councilman Measles moved to add a requirement that a report be
given to the Council after each meeting as a part of that motion,
seconded by Councilwoman Monfor.
Councilman Measles: I do have a problem with the Council approving
expenditures for anyone to go to a meeting and they are acting on
behalf of the City and we are the elected officials and we don't
know what they're doing up there. I'm not saying they're doing
anything wrong but as the elected body we should know.
Councilwoman Monfor: I think we talked about this last year and we
agreed to send somebody and one of the reasons was to keep informed.
We still don't know and it's probably time to spend the money
again.
Mayor Williams: I think Mr. Thomson should come before the
Council, give his views on RDC and give a report. Council agreed.
e. A note from the City Clerk states that we have $754.18 left in
the transportation budget and that includes the costs already
expended on the AML trip.
City Manager Brighton: The important part of that is that you are
getting close to the legislative session and you're talking about
substantial monies for transportation and what she is doing is
letting you know that the budget is nearly gone. Councilman
Measles: We're only four months into the fiscal year and we've
nearly used up the entire budget.
Finance Director Brown: The fourth page of the financial report
shows the original budget. This is before the AML expenses. What
the City Manager is talking about is for the Council and Mayor to
go to Juneau, that's in intergovernmental transportation. Your
lobbying efforts -are going to be allright.
Mayor Williams: This $9,000 for miscellaneous travel includes the
L
r
it
v
,KENAI CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 2, 1988
PAGE 20
AML, NLC, and other travel for Council. Councilwoman Monfort I
have a problem with starting out with $9,000 and having $700 left
and no one has gone anywhere, what happened to the money. Finance
Director Brown: The miscellaneous trips are not identified other
then AML. City Clerk Ruotsala: Its going to cost about $250 each
for AML for the plane tickets. Mayor Williams: So with all
expenses, its about $4200 for six Council for AML. Councilwoman
Monfort I think next year we should look at just one or two going
to AML. Councilwoman Swarner: I Mould like to see a list in our
next packet of trips. Finance Director Brown: I can print it out
on the computer for the next meeting.
Councilwoman Monfort The bicentennial commission was sunsetted and
there was $3200 in that budget. Can we transfer that into the
travel budget? Finance Director Brown: Yes, we can do that at the
next meeting. Mayor Williams: I can account for about $6500 off
the top of my head. Councilwoman Monfort Mayor, when you take
your trips, does it come out of this fund, answer yes. I know we
did some transferring in that budget, maybe we didn't put enough in
it. Councilman McComsey: That $3200 would be enough for the near
future wouldn't it, answer yes.
2. City Manager
a. Last evening, Pat Porter, Linda Swarner, and I were at the
Borough public hearing on their CIP list requesting them to add our
congregate housing project. That is the only CIP project that the
city is going to be involved in. All of the cities are going to be
asking for what they feel are area wide projects that the Borough
could put on their list to support. I think that we need to do
some work with the people in the other communities on the fish tax
issue because it is important to us. It's become obvious that
every source of revenue we have is being reduced rather than
increased and that needs to be done prior to Christmas. It's
possible, along with your Mayor's meeting in Fairbanks along with
most of the Managers there might be a possibility of joining them at
that time. We're asking the Borough to give up a half million
dollars and they're not going to give it up. Each city needs to
work with their assembly that the fishing industry receives no
benefit from the fish tax from the Borough. All we're asking for
is the fish tax on what is processed inside the cities. The
Borough will still get 50% of all processed fish outside the
cities and there are lots of those.
b. The survey on Thompson Park - we have drawn the samples, the
envelopes have been addressed, I need to know how you want those
questions worded.
Councilman Measles: Just one simple question, yes or no; do -you
want water and sewer under a special assessment bond. Not or.
City Manager Brighton: What if they call and ask how much it is
going to be. Councilwoman Monfort We don't know. City Manager
Brighton: If it were a percentage it would be easier. Councilman
a .
1
KENAI CITY COUNCIL
NOVEMBER 2, 1988
PAGE 21
Measles: I think it should be under the normal sewer and water
assessment that is set up already - up to 25%. City Manager
Brighton: If you want water and sewer on the basis of up to 25% of
the cost. Councilman Measles: The cap on that part of the code is
25% of the value of the property. If 25% of the cost of the
property exceeds 25% of the property value then that limits the
amount.
C. I have a six page fax letter from Bernie Riechert of EDA.
There is a breakfast in the morning with the Mayor, and EDA
representative, Kroger store representative, Lt. Governor, and the
situation is Dragnet has sent a letter to their attorneys to the
EDA asking them to reject our application for a cold storage. I
will get you copies.
Councilwoman Monfor: Is it true that they have closed for the
winter and they have no more space, Seafoods from Alaska. City
Manager Brighton: I don't know what the actual situation is, I've
heard that Alaska Seafoods got Dragnet to lease them space for
one million pounds and then changed that and said they could only
have space for 200,000 pounds. At the time they need space to
carry them through the winter, there is no space available.
Mayor Williams: Seafoods from Alaska is managing to squeeze
through right now by hiring a whole bunch of Sealand vans parked
outside the plant.
City Manager Brighton: The gentleman who asked to lease that lot
next to Inlet Fisheries indicated to me that he did not want to get
involved in this controversy, however, if it were available, he was
convinced that he would be able to use some of that space. I think
it will be important to attend that meeting. Bernie Riechert who
has helped us all the way through will be here and he needs some
answers to the accusations that have been made.
Councilman Smalley: Going back to the Thompson Park situation, if
its 25% of the assessed property value I am thinking that in terms
of $100,000 home and a $200,000 one will pay more. Finance
Director Brown: It's based on the fair market value of the
property after taking into account any improvements. When you're
talking about 100% assessment district, let's say you have a house
on a lot with a house. Let's say the lot next door is vacant and
it's only worth $10,000. if you run a water and sewer line,
apportion out the costa to all the property, you come to $5,000 to
each lot. Those two lots are the same size. The one that has the
house on it would get the whole $5,000 assessment. The empty lot
you would take 25% of the $10,000-value so -instead of .that lot
getting assessed $5,000 it could only be assessed at $2,500.
That's what the 25% limitation.is,

complaint.

r:
a. There is a notice from the ABC on suspension of the Rig. It
means that they haven't opened this year and they have to open 30
days of each year in order to keep their license and they have
requested from ABC to be exempted from this. It was granted.
-- - --" " -
b. A telephone poll was made on 10/21, there is no motion
necessary, but I do have to read it into the record. "The Kenai
,
Public Works Department and the Airport Manager request Council
approval to issue a purchase order to Saltz General Construction
for $2,665 to rent their D-9 for pushing up sand for winter
_.,:, ...
maintenance. The sand is at the Kenai Peninsula Borough landfill
who have authorized its use but it must be pushed up into a pile to
provide an unfrozen face to work off of". There were six yes and
one no.
C. I was asked to find out if Jan Bobek was a resident of the
City of Kenai, she was not.
z
r
d. There was a notice in your packet of election changes.
_' - •..
5. Finance Director
�
a. The financial report is in your packet. There will be another
finance report from the auditor on compliance with grants.
" l
b. Regarding the Daubenspeck property, for years all we received
was $88 per year for the lease of that property. The revenue from
leases, royalties on gas and oil are dedicated to athletic programs
so we now have a reserve in the general fund. Beginning in April
of this year we started receiving money from Unocal and Ciri and
thanks to Kevin Tabler and John Monfor we now are getting $16,000
or about $3,000 per month. At that rate you can determine that you
"
can have some athletic programs.
You -can thank Vince O'Reilly for asking for research on this. We
were losing identification on what tracts of land the revenues
should be dedicated to. I talked to both Kevin Tabler and John
- ...
Monfor for hours trying to identify the lands that were generating
these revenues so I could determine if it was supposed to be going
h
into reserve accounts or not.
6. Public Works Director
a. The airport renovation is out for bid and we'll have the
-
results at the second meeting in December.
b. The Swires project and the float plane basin are shut down for
the winter. I don't think we're going to be able to close them out
g.
because there are some things left over that need to be done.

C. The question at the last meeting regarding putting banners
across the Spur Highway, we did a rough estimate for the poles and
it looks in the neighborhood of around $10,000. This is for two
steel poles, structurally strong enough to hold a banner stretched
across the highway. This does not iincl de lighting.

w�d. We received a Corps permit for placing oevering buoys in
the river. We hope to have them in place this summer. At this
point we have four mooring buoys in the river permit, we have the
parking and staging area, and also for the Swires/Lawton loop
project, for the sewer line to Ttp2pson Park. Those pending are
-\e* f-4 for the cold storage site and foeftredging. The last one was for
the wildlife viewing area. We were told originally that we would
not need one, however, I did fill out the paperwork for the Coastal
Zone Management who think we might have to.
e. EPA five year permits are due for the waste water treatment
plant. The forms are filled out. There may be more stringent
requirements we have not needed to do in the past. We will know
---- - - --
later. Also up for renewal is the sledge disposal landfill. We
_.
haven't done any landfill or sludge up to this point. It's a three
year permit. The reason we haven't done it in the past is because
of all the changes at the airport, the landscaping and float plane
basin but we do plan on doing some next year so we have reapplied.

f. In reading through the minutes, the issue of the private road
.
brought up by Fr. Targonsky, where public works is actually out
'
plowing snow on private roads and the liability and I noticed
that the Mayor mentioned that public works will take care of his
end of the problem. My end of the problem was to write a memo to
-
the legal department asking for direction, until then we plan on
continuing to plow the road this year.
Mayor Williams: I had an interesting discussion with the Lt.
Governor this afternoon relative to Title 29 and he advises me that
'
Title 29 allows the taxation of church property and that the only
church property that is not taxed is that property used immediately
by the use of the church. That excessive properties beyond what
the church uses specifically for its needs are taxable. I don't
-,
think we do that though. The question came up in Valdez when a
church there had a great big long parcel that wasn't church
�•,,- -
property and it was taxed.

Dear Governor Cowper:
I was disappointed to learn that I was not among those selected to represent the
citizens of the State of Alaska on the newly organized Alaska Tourism Marketing
Council, which has been established to further develop Alaska's tourism industry.
Though a highly respected and capable person, the individual selected to serve on
the Board from the Kenai Peninsula is fairly new to the tourism industry and has
not had the opportunity to work with the various entities concerned.
My experience in marketing and advertising has been extensive and I have had the
opportunity to serve in such capacities as Publicity Director for the Washington
State Apple Blossom Festival, administrative assistant to the President of an
advertising firm in San Francisco dealing in promotional endeavors as well as
Executive Director for the Kenai Chamber of Commerce and Director of the Visitor
Information Center for the past 5-1/2 years. I am also pleased to announce that
I have been selected to serve as the Executive Director for the Kenai Bicentennial
Visitors & Convention Bureau.
It is my desire to serve you and the State of Alaska in any capacity that you may
deem beneficial. Please consider this letter as my sincere request to be con-
sidered for a future appointment.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Sue Carter

TO: Tim Rogers, City Attorney
FROM: Keith Kornelis, P.W. Director
DATE: 11/29/88
SUBJECT: Changing Ig C concerning towing vehicles
The Public Works Department has had difficulty with snow removal
because of vehicles being parked on City streets. Section
13.30.030 of KMC prohibits people from leaving unattended vehicles
on City streets between 4:00 am and 8:00 am of any day from October
1st of each fall until May 1 of the following year. This section
is a great help, however, the next section states that when a
vehicle is in violation it can be towed when it "is interfering
with snow removal". This presents a problem because we often do
not get to many areas for snow removal until after this time frame,
thus, it is too late to have the vehicle removed.
Will the City Attorney's office draw up an Ordinance changing our
Kenai Municipal Code, giving us the option to tow any vehicles
parked on a City street from 4:00 am to 8:00 am, regardless of
whether or not we are moving snow at that time. Possibly the
changes could be as I have written on the attached copy of the
code.
Another problem is that in some instances, the "PARKING PROHIBITED
ON CITY STREETS 4.00 AM TO 8.00 AM FROM OCTOBER 1 to MAY 1," signs
have been taken down, knocked down, or are missing. The City has
had to pay for the impound of vehicles because of a missing sign.
Something else we may want to change at this time to prevent a
problem concerns the requirement for notification in the newspaper ..
and on the radio.- So -far, this has riot been a problem but should
the newspaper or radio miss a printing or a notification is
inadvertently left out, -I- do- not feel that this would -be- an excuse
for the violators not having to pay for their vehicle when it was
improperly parked.
We have another problem with private contractors and property
owners pushing snow out of their driveways or parking lots into the
I
Page 2
roadway or covering a fire hydrant. This is especially a problem
if the contractor or property owner removes the snow after we have
plowed the main road. In some case the tailings or snow that is
left in the main road is a safety hazard. Often Public Works is
not even aware of these safety hazards for quite awhile because we
have already plowed in those areas and are concentrating elsewhere.
I do not know what the solution to this problem is but possibly
something in the code that specifically names it as being unlawful
with some type of penalty to help enforce it.
These are immediate problems and I would like to request that, if
possible, an Ordinance be introduced at the upcoming December 7th
Council meeting. This would require completion of the Ordinance
prior to Friday, December 2nd so that it can be included in the
Council packet.
After reading this memo and the attachments, please contact me so
we can discuss this and hopefully get a quick solution.

No. 88-30. Page 2 is a copy of the City's Resolution No. 88-75
accepting this grant.
Whenever we receive the "STANDARD AGREEMENT FORM FOR MUNICIPAL
GRANTS" I fill out the project explanation. I have always filled
this out with a very broad explanation so that the funds could be
used for a very large range of different projects. The State has
never had a problem with my explanations before.
Attachment B is a copy of the explanation I gave the State for our
two grants. The explanation is exactly what I have used before and
they have accepted it.
attachment C is a copy of the State's letter of October 10, 1988
asking me to change the explanation to make it more specific.
Attachment D is my reply to the State and the revisions to the
project description. I took out the phrase they wanted, hoping to
satisfy them, while still keeping our options as open as possible.
Attachment_E is the State's letter of November 10, 1988.once _again.
returning the grants stating they want the explanation to be more
specific.
Attachment F is a copy of what I think that the State of Alaska
might accept. I talked with Keith Gilmore, State Administrative
Officer, concerning these grants. He said that there should be no
reference to Sewer whatsoever in the "drinking water improvements
project." He also said that there should be no reference to water
or sewer in our roads grant and that the other items should say.in

Kenai, AK 99611
Dear Mr. Kornelis:
We are again returning the enclosed grant agreements because
the project descriptions contain language that is not
consistent with the intent of the legislature:. on grant
4/89:706 the legislature appropriated $562,100 for the
nking w r im r ve a 'ect". '':ie intent
purpose -if
of the legislature s that these funds will be used only for
expenditures related to drinking water improvements. The
problem we are having is that the description provided by �.
the city includes several references to water and sewer
improvement projects within the city limits.
First, any intended work on setA, nes would y .)t
be consistent with the intent of the legislature. S4cond,
the severe references o water projects Iff—tee description
are too broad and conceivably could include work on
something other than drinking water iuiprovcments such as
water fire hydrant lines and so on. We will =P- 5
w at ts" a:t: intended by
the city before we can execute the grant agrc-ement.
on grant 8/89-706 the legislature appropriated $70,000 for
the purpose of area wide street improvements. Again, the
intent of the legislature is that these funds be %-.qed only
for area wide street improvements and nothing further.
Included in the city's description is reference to water and
sewer improvements, sidewalks, seeding etc. much of which
does not appear to directly relate to street improvements.
In addition, the description provides for Lire opening of -new
roads. It seems the legislatures by usinr3 t:zu Hord
improvements is rOfer to work Q:1 already cxisting roads ill
the Kenai area. "Finally, the description includes other
- -miscellaneous it�evis" which again seems to be too generic.
Enclosed you �.iiil find two new copies of standard agreements
forms for municipal grants for each of the crants mentioned
above. Please provide a more specific explanation as to the
intended use of these f�lc.s by the-c tv (. Kenai.

— - - - - REs Kenai Spur Bike/Safety Path
`.� Kathleen F. Scott, Executive Director
Soldotna Chamber of Commerce
i P.O. Box 236
Soldotna, Alaska 99669
- Dear H� t
Thank you for your letter requesting information on the cost to design and
construct a bike path between Kenai and Soldotna in concert with the proposed
=' ! Kenai Spur Widening Project. Per our conversation, the department will be
looking to the local communities to secure funding for the bike trail project.
..- The department, because of limited federal funding and very restrictive federal
f highway program requirements on bike path construction, will not use federal
funds for this project. Also, because of extremely limited state General Funds
and several pressing priorities to provide basic highway improvements to
communities, we will not pursue a state General Fund bike path project through
the DOT&PF Capital Improvement Program process. However, if the communities can
secure funding for the project, the department will be glad to design and
construct the bike path as part of its Kenai Spur Widening.Project proposed for
construction in FY'92.
Maintenance of the bike trail once it is constructed is also an issue to be
t� considered. DOT&PF has limited maintenance personnel and funding. Maintenance
;f of the bike path would be a low priossty. It would be beneficial for the
communities to propose a method of funding the maintenance using municipal
personnel or volunteers.
- = We estimate that the cost of the path would be $150,000 per mile if constructed
as part of the widening project. This cost estimate assumes that the bike path
project would begin at the end of the existing sidewalk in Soldotna, near Mile
1.0 of the Kenai Spur Highway, and would end at Kenai High School at the existing
bike path. It is also assumed that no additional right of way would have to be
acquired. The total length of the bike path would be approximately 8.5 miles.
The, estimated total -construction cost -of the project Is $1, 275, 000. Design Cost
would be approximately 12% of this total or $150,000 in addition to the
construction cost.
If the bike/safety path were constructed as a stand alone project, we estimate
the cost would be approximately $200,000 per mile. Total project cost would be
approximately $1,700,000, with an additional $200,000 needed for design costs.
{ The same assumptions as above would apply.

STERLING SPECIAL WASTE SITE CLOSED OUT
=)v Fo - 7
No. a
November 1988
The Kenai Peninsula Borough, under the oversight of the Department
of Environmental Conservation, has finished virtually all the cleanup
work at the Sterling Special Waste Site.
The borough -owned site, which operated for a decade by a
contractor as a central site for disposal of industrial waste, was
closed out on November is.
When closeout began, several pits on the site were filled with
largely liquid drilling muds, which should have been solidified by the
sites operator, and it was thought that unauthorized materials might
have been disposed of at the site before it was abandoned in 1986.
Failure to solidify the muds, and the practice of pumping water
accumulating on top of the pits into other pits, spread the potential
for Isaobing o! heavy metals or other substances into the soil and
., groundwater. Although no contamination has been discovered in soil or
groundwater away from the immediate area of the pits, several homes and
a school are nearby.
To close out the site, two large pits were lined with a thick,
high -density polyethylene. Drilling muds were solidified by mixing in
cement, and the muds and nearby contaminated soil were moved into the
lined pits, which were then covered with more polyethylene and a layer
of clean soil.
The project involved moving some 83,000 cubic yards of material,
including 24,000 cubic yards of muds and 9,000 cubic yards of
:contaminated soil. The remainder was clean soil, moved either in
preparing the site for cleanup or to cover the lined pits. in October,
with work nearly complete, several workers were stricken briefly by
Illnesses that may have been associated with pockets of gas in the
soil. Tests of the workers, the soil, and the air revealed no sign of
any toxic substances.
Over the winter, DEC and the borough will finalize a long-term
groundwater and soils assessment program. This final action is an
important step in the cleanup process, because will further define the
extent of the original contamination, and it will provide information
about the cleanup's long-term effectiveness. The site and its
monitoring system will be watched indefinitely, using test wells and
other methods, to provide early warning in event of pollutants
migrating offsite in either the .groundwater_.or. soil. In the spring,
vegetation will be planted to prevent erosion and to better seal the site.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE KENAI CLEANUP PROJECT
COMPREHENSIVE INVENTORY OF WASTE SITES: Postage -paid cards wer
distributed across the Peninsula to allow the public to help compile
working list of sites that may need action. More than 50 potential
problems have been identified through the cards, interviews and
telephone tips. Information: Jim Hayden, DEC Anchorage, 563-6529;
Lester Leatherberry, DEC Soldotna, 262-5210.
- MOOD PRODUCTION FACILITY: An asphalt plant at the has processed
nearly 5,000 cubic yards of oil -contaminated soil. The cleanup of
contaminated soil should be finished this month, but the project, with
asphalt to be made from processed contaminated soil, will not be
completed until spring. The company has shipped more than 600 bags
(6,000 pounds each) of contaminated dust to a disposal site Outside. A
compliance agreement for site closure and long-term monitoring has been
drafted. Informations Don Seagren, DEC Soldotna, 262-5210.
ANCHOR POINT BENZENE: A vapor extraction system was tested at
the site, and was found to work well in pulling spilled gasoline from
the soil. Exploratory water well drilling, part of DECls Village Safe
Water programs alternative water supply feasibility study, was
completed on October 28. Eight wells were drilled. One yielded a
significant amount of water, about 30 gallons per minute, in
preliminary pump testing. An extended constant -rate pump test
completed on November 10 showed water flowing at about 25 gallons per
minute. The study is an attempt to find alternative water supplies for
homes and businesses whose wells were affected by the spill. A public
meeting DEC had hoped to hold this month will be moved back tor!
December to allow DEC to analyze the data and prepare recommendations. -

agencies, public land managers, and other interested parties for
review and comment.
Enclosed is a draft report presenting long-term forecasts of
electricity demand prepared for this study by the Institute of
Social and Economic Research at the University of Alaska. The
forecasts have been developed for each significant electrical
end -use category, and are specified for each of four Railbelt
areas: the Kenai Peninsula, the Anchorage area, the Matanuska-
Susitna Valley area, and the Fairbanks area.
You are invited to review the report and send us your comments at

sands and thousands of
governments that have less

cording to NATaT Director
of Federal Affairs Anne
Colo.
"As an association, our
mission is to get Washing-
ton to realize that when the
federal government cuts
funds, increases responsi-
bilities of local govern-

tions, the majority of gov-
ernments in the country
don't have the things we
assume that a larger com-
munity has: staff, city
manager, computers, staff
attorneys and all this other
stuff that puts a community in a better place to help itself."
Schiff says.
In Washington, NATAT provides specific guidelines for fed-
eral policy -makers to develop realistic, flexible and responsible
programs and policies enabling local governments to play the
role assigned to them by the federal government.
Accordingly, attendees spent much of the conference focus-
ing on regulatory -flexibility, the issue they brought to the- ac.
tention of members of Congress during their march on Capitol
Hill.
R i 1980, re-
quires all federal agencies that write regulations affecting -small
governments to consider the differing abilities large and small
governments have in tending to national goals.
Further, the act requires agencies to complete an initial and
final report proving tocwerements have th htd-

Schiff says demanding that federal agencies observe the reg-
ulatory flexibility act "would be the next best thing Congress
do for us, short of restoring revenue sharing."'

Russell says.
EPA Administrator Lee

pathizes with the plight of
small governments in this
"Regulation age of new federalism, has

i� istration will take to assist

,,You will we a continu-

Thomas says. "I'm in-
creasingly concerned that
many (small-town govern-
ments) are going to say,
'It's not that I don't want
to (implement EPA direc-
tives), it's that I don't see
Jeff ssch"I how it can be done."'
11 Thomas says the partner-
ship between federal and
local government could be strengthened. "Smaller communi-
ties will face some of the toughest challenges as you look at the
financing required to carry out the directives." he says.
Each year, NATaT honors an individual with the Dave Dur•
enberger Local Grass Roots Leadership Award. for innovative
ideas to deal with increased responsibilities and regulations.
Before presenting this year's award, Sen. Durenberger of Min.
nesota-toldthe delegates, "Coming here is very important ...
NATaT is all about making the federal system work.
"A good government can only work uniquely when the part-
nership between the federal, state and local governments works
most effectively. It's one thing to say, like we've said the past
eight years, 'We're sending all the responsibility back home
where it belongs, where you can do it more effectively; but if
the resources are not there, human resources are there. They're
in the room today ... if the finances aren't there, you have a
problem ... when we celebrate public service ... we really are
celebrating creative imagination..." ❑ J

Res Kenai Float Plane Facility
Dear Mr. Kornelis,
Attached is a copy of Pay Estimate No. 8 signed by myself and by
the Contractor. This Pay Estimate includes payment for the
paving accomplished under Change Order No.3, Resetting of fencing
along Float Plane Road, south of Fourth Avenue, and other
miscelleaneous items of work under the contract. Please note
that as we discussed, payment for paving approaches is included
under Additive Alternate Bid Item 40.02 at a reduced rate that
was negotiated per your instructions. A calculation sheet is
included as a means of clarification. A calculation sheet is
also included to clarify "in kind" work on the fencing at various
locations on the project that was paid for under item 70.14 on
Additive Alternate No. 1.
There are some remaining items of work that have not been paid,
specificly Topsoil and Seeding along Float Plane Road. These
items were not satisfactorily completed prior to winter shutdown
of the project. I am also concerned that the seeding on the
basic bid, which is amounts to $45912, may not have been
sufficiently established prior to freeze up. We will monitor the
progress of the seeding next spring. In the meantime it is my
recommendation that the 5% retainage be held to cover the cost of
reseeding and/or refertilizing if it is necessary to do so next
spring.
Sincerely,
oe

Sewall, Keene ,
Mr. Skogetad requested the removal, as sponsor, of Ord. 88-45 from i
the agenda. He stated the request for the ordinance was a reaction
to problems raised in the recent Board of Adjustment appeal. On i
further thought, however. he decided it was more appropriate to allow `
the Assembly/Planning Commission Task Force complete its work before
repeal of the existing KPB 21.12.
There was discussion as to whether an item could be removed from an
advertised agenda without a vote and Mr. Reeves stated until the
agenda is approved by the assembly it is tentative and a sponsor of
legislation did have the authority to withdraw it without a vote.
The agenda was approved as amended without objection.

ASSEMBLYMEMBER MOOCK MOVED THE ENACTMENT OF ORD. 88-40.
Mr. Crawford stated the Finance Cmte. recommended amendment to the
substitute and postponement.
Mrs. Maack reported many of the changes adopted by the co®ittes were
not in the original Ord. 88-40 so a substitute was prepared.
Pre@. Sewall opened public hearing.
Tim Cashman; Soldotna, his concern was with lodging - @ervicas for s
Perloo or Lbas than 30 days. He stated he agreed with the intent of
the ordinance but believed much of the summer tourist lodging could
be exempt through easy manipulation of the word of the ordinance.- He -
suggested rather than sales tax on lodging, Levy a bad tax. He
supported generating additional revenues so that the year around
rentals could be exempt. In regard to changes in the sales tax

ceiling, he noted tourist package$ were presently being sold on the
baais of the old ordinance and he felt guides should be advised of
the change.
Mrs. Meoahan asked Mr. Cashman to take a copy of the ordinance and
sketch in the alternatives he proposed.
in answer to questions from the Mayor, Mr. Cashman stated he felt
very strongly that tourist dollars coming into the community should
be taxed. He reported he deals with a lot of guides and tourist$ who
need lodging and is convinced a lot of revenue is being lost which
could be cutting down some of the tax burden for the year around
residents. Via concern was for the small income people who could not
afford to own their own homes. He offered to meet with the committee
to work on such a program.
Public hearing was closed.

ASSEMBLYMEMBER CRAWPORD MOVED THE ENACTMENT Of ORD. 86-41.
Mr. Crawford reported the finance Cmte. had a "do pass"
recommendation.
Mr. Skogstad reported Local Affairs Cate. discussed the ordinance and
it opted not to make a recommendation.
Mr. McLane reported the Public Works Cmte. discussed the ordinance
briefly and had a "do pass" recommendation on a split vote. He noted
the borough commitment is for planning purposes only and not
construction and maintenance funding.
Mr. Hodgins reported persons present from the Economic Development
District that could answer questions raised during the committee
meeting.
Public hearing was opened and as no one wished to speak, was closed.
Shelly Edwards. of Economic Development District, and Bill Wasson,
c orage, owner of Native Alaskan Seafoods and consultan or ort
Graham, were available to answer questions. Me. Edwards stated the
Village of Port Graham is requesting the Borough commit to fund half
the cost of the feasibility study for the proposed breakwater. The
cost has not yet been estabiishedi the Corps of Engineers is involved
in a reconnaisance study which will establish that cost. She stated
the Port Graham dock is privately owned and the Corps of Engineers
requires a local municipal sponsor. As to references to a four year
construction phase in the backup material, she stated after the
feasibility study, if it is deemed a project that should be built,
the Borough might be asked if it would like to participate.
Mr. Wasson, who prepared a cost estimate which was backup information
for the ordinance, answered questions from Mrs. McGahaa by stating he
purposely did not send a copy of the estimate to the Corps of
--gngineers becausehe - _wanted to go over it with the Village and
Borough before doing that. He stated the figures were only to show
that over the course of the project there would be a requirement for
local cost_shars• Part of the cost could be an in kind contribution
of gravel. He believed it was -unclear exactly what- the borough's
port powers were. The Village corporation currently owns the

is to dead property adjoining the cannery to the village council for
a dock. He stated the cannery baeically(')

construction of public
provides coammnnity services because of the lack of them from a public -
antiey at this time. Although the village does not want to
incorporate as a municipality they would be willing to consider
forming for
,
a service area related to infrastructure fisheries and
docks. He stated the Corps' procedure is to respond to a request by
ggoing to the most local municipal entity for support and funding and
!�
if funding was not available from the borough, they would then going
to the state for funding would be a logical evolution of the process. (.
Mr. Wasson stated in addition that there are two projects ongoing.
both at the study stage at this point. There is no commitment from
any sector to do construction but the commitment to study is critical
in relation to the long term capital improvement of the community.
Mayor Gilman, in answer to a question from Mr. Brain. stated that I
,
-
requests -from areas outside borough& are channeled from the Corps to 1
- -
the seats, but where the area is inside a municipality, it gets the
request. He stated the difference between this request and that of
.,
one from Ninilchik is that the facilities built there were construct-
ed by the Corps of Engineers in conjunction with the state in the
196Os. If the had formation Borough,
early request come after of the
the state probably would not have gotten involved with it. The
!;
situation in Port Graham is different in that the dock is privately
owned and the proposal is to build a breakwater which will provide a
for dock.
Safe mooring place to vessels, protection the existiag and i
a public facility which could support the ferry system. He stated
the request from Ninilchik came as a result of the vote to approve

Mr. Crawford stated in any given year there has been the amount
i
reQussted or more derived from the fish tax from that area. The only
services provided are schools and solid waste. He stated without
these needed improvements there is a good chance Chugach Alaska will
mow out and those revenues will be lost.
Mr. Mullen commented part of the key to the Success of the plan is to i
t
keep an essentially private company in the area for the economic
j
benefit to the community.
!
Pros. Sewall passed the gavel to Vice Pres. McGahsa in order to
comment in support of the ordinance. He believed the molding of the
public and private sectors is Something to be considered more and
more. While opposed to situations where the State has tried to

falsely subsidize the sport economic entities and lost money. He was
concerned that the project not be found feasible only through the

ASSEMBLYMEMBER GLICK MOVED THE ADOPTION OF RES. 88-87.
Mr. Nash expressed concern for the retention schedule of election
registration books. The clerk explained the lists are sent to Juneau
for recording of voter history following the election and then reside
at the Borough for 2 years. it appeared to be sufficient as there
has been no request for them in the past.
RES. 88-87 WAS ADOPTED BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT.

ASSEMBLYMEMBER GLICK MOVED THE ADOPTION OF RES. 88-89.
Mr. Crawford reported the Finance Cmte. first voted to Defeat, then
to Table the resolution. He stated the fish tax is distributed quite
differently throughout the state between the cities and the boroughs.
The legislature last year amended the law to state the boroughs an
distribute the funds to the cities and decided to wait to see What
action the legislature took this year.
Mr. McGahan •poke for defeat of the resolution as it represents a
good amount og money which the borough needs.
Pres. Sewall passed the gavel to Vice Pres. McGaban in order to state
he would support a motion to Table, recognizing the cities of Kenai,
Hooter and Seward have all adopted such a resolution. Ho agreed with
the cities' assertion that they provide the majority of the services
within their boundaries. The borough does provide some of the
services fish processors use however. particularly the landfills. and
funding for them must come from somewhere. He fait some considera-
tion should be given to more equitably dividing the revenue but he
could not support transferring the borough's share outright.
The gavel was returned.
Mr. Brown agreed with former comments and expressing his surprise
there was no one representing the cities at the meeting.
Mr. Nash noted the lose of a quarter of a mill would be significant
and would have to be made up by some other form of tax.

i
Mayor Gilman referred to his memorandum to the chairman of the
Central Peninsula Emergency Medical Service Area Board and the
Ridgeway/Starling Fire Service Area Board. He stated some problems
have occurred with using Borough facilities for purposes other than
what they were built for. A year ago a voluntary fireman injured
himself during a Halloween activity and he filed for workmen's
comFonfloaut
ion. It was denied but the issue is unresolved. The issue i
i$ ghfacilities need to be oovesed by liability insurance and
to tablish this, activities the facilities are being used for must
be established. The memo does not intend to restrict activities,
only to identify uses so that insurance needs can be provided for or

Mr. Nash asked the Mayor for information regarding reports of
personal becoming sick while closing the Sterling Waste Site. Mayo!
Gilman reported he had issued a press release that reported the cause
of the gas had not been found. Personnel were examined but since
they did not report the problem until they had been sick for 24
hours it couldn't be identified. He stated the questionable material
has been.ieolated in a lined pit so that if the lab reports find the ;
material is hazardous. it can be located and disposed of in another
way. This was the procedure ADEC recommended. Cappping of the pit$
has begun. The monitoring system will be presented for public -review
in approximately two weeks.

Mr. Nash referred to the earlier process of reporting the 10 worst
cases of tax delinquency asking if the -Ma or would continue that.
Mayor Gilman stated he would be providing lists of all delinquencies
monthly but not selected accounts.
Mr. Brown reported attending the meeting with Anchorage and Matanuska
-Susitna Borough in Girdwood as a non -representative of the Assembly.
He stated he agreed with Pre@. Sewall's decision not to send official
representatives. As a Chamber member, he was pleased to participate
in the discussion regarding the ferry. He stated it is estimated the
feasibility study would cost 8100,000, allocated on a par capita
ba@is. He stated other subjects discussed were revenue sharing,
school funding and the rail belt energy fund. He reported they were
set to page a joint resolution in support of distribution of rail
belt funds on a per capita basis but with his objection, he was
invited to come up with a more equitable solution. n speaking with
Anchorage Assembly members on budget problems, it was stated the
hiring of a budget analyst totally accountable to the Assembly solved
many of their problems.
Mrs. McOahan reported receiving favorable comments on the Mayor's
meeting with the road maintenance board. She wished to make clear
her preference was for hospital board members who are regular health
care consumers and have no professional contact with the hospital.
She was contacted by a board member who reported a motion was
approved to send the Ma or four names and the Mayor only received
one. The vacancy was advertised several times, Reople applied, but
someone failed to follow through with the board a recommendations.
She, asked the Clerk to check with the Division of Elections on
getting the Nikiski polling place advertised in the Clarion along
with District S locations. She requested permit sequiroments be
changed to include a mandatory comment from Dept. of Fish and Ono on
any activity which might allow waste elements to get into Cook Inlet.
Mr. Skogetad commented on his withdrawal of the repeal of KP$ 21.12
stating when the Task Force has completed its work a new ordinance
could be drafted which would deal with problems the existing ono did
not address and repeal the old chapter at the esme time. He reported
the Task Force would moot again on Monday at S p.m. after which he
would try to got the consensus of the Assembly on a preliminary
draft.
Mr. Poindexter commented on the Coastal Management Plan, believin`
there were items which should have been included such as trails and
access or agriculture as an activity. Io regard to the Soldovis
Native Association holds 23,000 acres in the center of Kachemak Say
State Park which they plan to cut for timber, which would have a
visual impact on Homer. The Borough has a Memorandum of Understand-
ing that the Association won't use that land until they have a land
trade with the State. He stated he would introduce a resolution
:eking the State to come back to the negotiating table. He reported
one tho road from Illiamna which has a bridge that washed out and
people are continuing to use the road, fording the stream. He
stated DOT has had materials stockpiled but not found the money for
transport to the site. He believed Soil and Water Conservation
Districts had valuable expertise to determine soil and water
compatibility and should be involved in the permitting process.
Mr. Hodgine reported that EDD did not contribute to a local c aign
fund as reported in the Clarion. He spoke in support of aoint
meeting with Anchorage and Mat -Su Borough once or twice a year,
ppo881bIyy to be initiated in the spring. He stated the Data
Processing Steering Committee met yesterday and approved three items
a computer for KFSA, a computer and software for Borough Maintenance
to assign costs to various schools, and a computer for Borough
Maintenance to comply with asbestos reports -required by State and
Federal agencies.

Control Your Losses —
Control Your Costs
Municipalities insured through the AMU
11A receive a monthly claims report that lists
reported claims, paid settlements, and loss
reserves. Other municipalities may also re-
ceive this type of loss information from their
Insurers, The value of this information can-
not be overstated because it relates to loss
control and cost control for the municipality.
Loss data should always be treated as con-
fidential as they pertain to an individual
claimant. While loss runs are a valuable in-
temal management tool, they can often re-
veal information to a claimant that would Im-
pair the insurer's ability to seek a proper
claim settlement on your behalf, Loss infor-
mation on a particular claim is regarded as
privileged until a final settlement or court
award is made. Under the Freedom of Infor-
mation Act, you may be required to release
generic information with the claimant's
name removed. So long as it is impossible to
determine the particular claim that a reserve
applies to, this information may not be harm-
ful. However, giving out reserve information
on a large reserve for a death claim where
only one death claim has been reported
would be an improper disclosure of informa-
tion because it is easily determined which
claim the reserve pertains to.
When in doubt about releasing claim in-
formation, contact your municipal attorney
or the AMUJIA.
Keeping claim costs under control benefits
us all, so be aware that individual loss re-
serves and claim settlement matters are con-
fidential.
A key element in successful claims ad-
justing is the speed with which the investiga-
tion of facts begins. Evidence, witnesses, and
claimants' attitude all deteriorate with time.
In the case of workers compensation claims,
late penalties are assessed for late payment
caused by late reporting.
Good loss control practice dictates that
every incident likely to result in a claim and
. every serious incident that could possibly
result in a claim be reported promptly.
Prompt notice of an incident allows prompt
assessment of liability, factual determination,
and prompt, fair settlements where
- indicated. - -- -- -
f When reporting incidents, obtain all facts,
witnesses' names, places, times, and pictures
that are readily available, but dontt delay the
report for days while waiting for complete
facts especially when dealing with serious in-
judes, death, or significant property damage.

The State of State -Local Relations
',y5teven D. Gold
,epNnted with permission from
State legislatures, August 1988
Paternalism or indifference from state of-
ficials. Distrust and frustration from local of-
ficials. Hostility and disrespect on all sides.
To-3 often, these, seem to be the reigning atti-
tudes among the leaders of state and local
governments.
But casually perceived attitudes and rhe-
toric can be misleading. What's really hap-
pening in statedocal relations? Are things get-
ting better, getting worse, or staying about
the same? Difficult questions. Princeton Uni-
versity's Richard Nathan, one of the leading
scholars of intergovernmental relations, has
observed, "So much happens at the state
and local levels across this vast nation that it
is very hard to generalize about broad
trends."
This is particularly true about state -local
policies. Comparing one state to another is
hampered by the incredible diversity in state
and local systems. A critical problem in one
state may not even exist in another. To make
matters worse, state -local relations is one of
the less glamorous issues around. As former
Virginia Governor Charles Robb used to say,
There Is no faster way to clear out a room
"han to begin talking about federalism:'
John Shannon, until recently the boss of
the U.S. Advisory Commission on Intergov-
ernmental Relations (ACIR), has coined the
term "tend -for -yourself federalism" to
describe the current period. One of the main
reasons for this development is the enor-
mous cutback in federal support for state
and local governments. According to the
budget presented by President Reagan last
winter, federal aid for state and local govern-
ment operations was slashed 37 percent in
real terms between 1980 and 1987. As a
percentage of the gross national product,
grants fell from 2.2 percent to 1.2 percent in
those seven years.
In part because of this shrinking federal
role, NCSL's Task Force on State -Local Rela-
tions has predicted that "we are on the brink
of a period of significant change in the way
state and local governments interact:' Feder-
al cutbacks "create a vacuum that forces
states to reassess their policies."
There has not been enough time in the
two years since the task force approved this
statement to expect major policy changes,
but it is worth inquiring about the develop-
ment of state -local relations in the past few
- -years. Unfortunately, no comprehensive sur
vey is available on this issue. Still, the 111,0�ft,entary evidence available does reveal that
the winds of change are beginning to pick up
force in slate capitols around the country.
One of the most tangible impacts of the
AML Newsletter
L
task force is increased interest in creating
state ACIRs. The task force placed heavy em-
phasis on the role such groups can play in
providing a forum for discussion of inter-
governmental issues and for doing research
on solutions to state -local problems.
Jane Roberts, assistant director of the U.S.
ACIR, reports that there has been more dis-
cussion of establishing such bodies in the
past several years than ever before. (Editors
note, Roberts will participate in the AML
Conference to discuss ACIR legislation as
well as other state -local government issues.)
A new ACIR in Utah last year and one ex-
pected to be created this year in Rhode
Island are directly attributable to initiatives
by legislators who served on the NCSL task
force. Representative Bob Bianchini of
Rhode island explains, "State and local
governments should work together to solve
problems before they reach the critical stage.
The task force discussions convinced me that
a state ACIR can play an important role in
fostering that kind of cooperation."
As the rubric "fend -for -yourself feder-
alism" implies, local governments may have
to bear much of the burden of raising rev-
enue to finance their services. If they are to
do this, however, they must have sufficient
flexibility. Several states have relaxed con-
straints on the ability of local governments to
raise revenue. California, Iowa, Nevada, and
Utah are examples of states where limits on
property taxes or spending have been liber-
alized. California, for example, amended
Proposition 13 to allow localities to raise their
property tax rate to pay off newly issued
general obligation bonds, even if this means
having a tax rate of more than 1 percent.
Utah replaced a 6 percent limit on property
tax increases with a strong full -disclosure
process —notices explaining why taxes are
going up must be sent to taxpayers before
the increase. Moving in the opposite direc-
tion, Wisconsin this year imposed a new set
of limits on local governments land on the
state as well).
Another important trend is the loosening
of restrictions on local sales taxes. Among the
states to grant new sales tax authority are
Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri,
North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Wis-
consin.local income taxes have not been as
popular, but they are an integral part of a
sweeping local tax -reform program approved
by the Pennsylvania House earlier this year.
That states Senate was considering a dif-
ferent approach as this article went to press,
and some major reforms were given a good
chance of passage this year. South Carolina is
another state where a far-reaching reform of
local finances (developed by its ACIR) has
been working its way through the legislature.

Bob Healey, AMU11A Administrator.
Healy Takes the Helm
at AML/)IA
The AMLIJIA Board of Trustees recently
hired Robert F. Healey as the permanent In-
surance Administrator for the municipal risk
management pool. In announcing HealWs
appointment, Board Chairman Phil Younker
of Fairbanks said, "Bob brings to the AMUJIA
a wide background of public sector risk
management, pooling, and insurance bro-
kerage experience. He has the expertise we
need and the type of personality our par-
ticipants will feel comfortable with.'
At the time of his appointment, Healey
was serving as risk manager for Pima County,
Arizona. In this capacity he has been respon-
sible for the overall management of the
county's risk management program, which
includes a self insurance trust fund. In Pima
County he has worked with municipal and
tribal governments to resolve insurance cost
and availability crises.
Before going to Arizona, Bob served as the
first risk manager for the city of Duluth, Min-
nesota. He has over thirty years of insurance
and risk management experience. Though
he has spent most of his life in Minnesota
and New York, he is no stranger to Alaska,
having served In the U.S. Army at Fort
Richardson from 1949 to 1952.
The AMUJIA Board reviewed over seventy
applications for the position during a three-
month search. According to Younker, "Bob's
experience working with large and small
municipalities to create innovative and prac-
tical solutions to insurance problems made
him stand out from the others. We Jook for-
ward to working with him."
Healey takes over the daily operation of
the AMUJIA from Risk Management Consul.
tant John George, who was retained to get
the program under way and to act as Insur-
ance Administrator_ until a _permanent ad.
ministrator could be found. Healey and
George will both be available at the AML
Conference -in Fairbanks to matwithpar-
ticipants and prospective participants. Please
make a point of meeting them to discuss
your AMUJIA. After Conference you will be
able to reach Bob Healey at the AMUJIA's
new phone number, 586-3222.

Commissioner's Corner
by David G. Hoffman, Commissioner
Department ofCommunity
and Regional Affairs
Thanks to AML
I would like to open -this first "Commis-
sionees Comer' with a word of thanks to the
folks at AML for the opportunity to include a
regular column in their newsletter. As Com•
missioner of DCRA, a major goal of mine has
been to broaden the communication chan-
nels between the department and its consti•
tuents. You, the membership of AML, are a
fundamental part of that constituency. t want
to use this column as a forum for communi.
J cating with you on a regular basis —to keep
in touch and to keep you Informed about
what we're doing at DCRA.
Perhaps the most important part of good
communication Is listening. I intend to be a
good listener. I'd like you to consider this
t regular column as an open Invitation to let
{ me know your thoughts about what were
doing at DCRA and how well, or poorly, you
think we're doing it. I Intend for DCRA to be
responsive to your needs —as you see them.
' To do this, though, 1 need your feedback.
Thanks.
Over the next couple of columns, I will be
y outlining the department's strategy for assist-
ing Alaskan communities, reviewing our ef•
i forts to implement this strategy during the
j last two years, and bringing you up to date
on current initiatives like the Rural Economic
Development Initiative (REDI) program and
the Financial Outreach Services To Encour-
age Recovery (FOSTER) program.
AML and DCRA Ties
Seeing the AML staff in action during the
recent round of mayors conferences left me
with a great appreciation for their significant
talents and energy. I would like to congratu.
late them for their good work in assisting
local governments.
A special praise is due to Scott Burgess for
his initiative in forging a closer relationship
between AML and DCRA. The department
and AML clearly share many common inter-
ests and goals. The working relationship be.
tween the department and AML has never
been more cooperative or more productive,
largely due to Scott's personal efforts. For my
part, I have made a personal commitment to
nurturing closer ties with AML by increasing
MY own participation In key AML events in-
cluding board meetings and other special ac-
tivities such as the AML Legislative Commit-
tee meeting, which I attended recently hr
Kotzebue.
I'll Be Looking For You In Fairbanks
I would like to continue to deepen the re-
lationship between AML and DCRA and put
it on a more personal basis. I would also like
to work more closely with you on statewide
and local issues. We need to do this before
the next legislative session gets underway
and overwhelms us.
What State Grants
Are Available?
The Alaska Municipal League's State Ain
Catalog attempts to answer this question for
Alaska local governments. Over 100 state
financial and technical assistance programs
from sixteen departments are included in
this document. The nature and purpose of
each program are explained, and descrip.
tions of what type of assistance is available,
how the program is financed, who may app.
ly, and how to go about it are included.
The catalog Is updated annually by the
departments: new programs are included,
old programs are modified or deleted, and
funding levels are adjusted for the current
fiscal year. The State AW Cablod attempts to
list all state -administered programs of finan-
cial and/or technical assistance available to
local governments and is fairly comprehen-
sive. Copies have been sent to all member
municipalities, and additional copies, in-
cluding the three-ring binder, are available at
a cost of $20 by calling the Alaska Municipal
League at 586.1325 or writing 217 Second
Street, Suite 2W , Juneau, Alaska 99801.
Salary Survey Finished
Featuring a slightly new look and an earlier
publication date, the Alaska Municipal
League's FY 1989 Municipal Salary Survey
has been published and sent to the partici-
pating member municipalities. This publica-
tion represents a substantial time commit-
ment on the part of participants, as they
volunteer staff time to list actual salaries and
salary ranges as well as vacation, holiday and
leave, insurance, and other benefits for their
employees.
The Salary Survey includes over 50 dif•
ferent Job classes from municipalities of var-
ious sizes and from nearly every region of the
state so that meaningful comparisons can be
made and applied to the personnel situation
in your community. Salaries are listed by Job
description, by municipality, and even aver•
aged across the state.
Also new this year is a Data Processing De.
partment section, listing the positions and
salary ranges for department heads through
computer operators in what is becoming a
rapidly expanding municipal department
throughout Alaska.
Copies of this valuable source of personnel
- information are available free of charge to

North/Northwest Mayors Conference,
Barrow, October 14, 1988.
Good morning, Mayors and guests. I am
honored to welcome you to Barrow and the
North Slope Borough as a Borough Assem-
blyman and as the First Vice President of the
Alaska Municipal League.
1 have served on the AML Board of Direc-
tors for almost two years now and I will con-
tinue to serve my community, yours, and
others across the State as President of the
League beginning at the conclusion of the
annual conference in Fairbanks in Novem-
ber.
am proud of what the league Board, staff,
and we, as local government officials, have
been able to accomplish and are continuing
to pursue through the League to improve
local government and our cities and bor-
oughs. I would like to spend a few minutes
and review the AMUs legislative program —
the Leaguds most important program --and
emphasize how important you, as the North/
Northwest Mayors Conference and as indivi-
dual municipal officials, are to the strength
and success of the League.
The AML represents 122 member munici.
pal governments, directly. The municipal of-
ficials in these member cities and boroughs
represent over 95 percent of the people of
Alaska who live in our cities and boroughs.
Local governments have trouble in the Legis-
lature and in Congress for one main reason,
which sets the stage for our lobbying effort.
Municipalities are viewed as a special interest
group, not as a legitimate partner with the
state and federal governments. We balance
our budgets every year by raising taxes or
reducing services. This is done even though
local governments are receiving less money
and more requirements from the State and
federal government each year. Some of the
fault is our own for not educating those in
our communities, and in Juneau and
Washington, about what we are doing. We
need to remember that we represent the
people in our villages, cities and boroughs.
We have to do a better job ...
• of listening to and serving the needs of our
people.
• of providing the leadership to make the
hard choices and set the priorities, and
• of letting people know what we are doing
to provide needed services and how much it
costs.
The AML must set realistic legislative
priorites, tm There were over 250 bills
directly affecting local government in the
15th Alaska legislature which the AML staff
tried to follow to keep the membership In -
?ss.
Delbert Rexford, incoming AML President, was seen coast -to -coast in this photo, taken during
the recent whale rescue in Barrow and published in USA Todayas well as other papers. Unfor-
tunately, the photo captions identified Delbert only as an Eskimo whaler, not as AML 1st Vice
Presidents
formed. Only 50 of those bills passed in the
First Session and only 25 in the Second Ses-
sion. Only a few of those were AML priorities
and some were, frankly, harmful to good
local government.
Municipalities also missed a rare oppor-
tunity last session when the election year
rhetoric of helping cities and boroughs, and
our failing economies, was running high. The
municipalities, as a group, did a poor job of
defining or pursuing a well-defined econo-
mic recovery package. Instead, we got some
quick fixes like the jobs Bill and also lost W
million in the last seconds of the legislative
session.
We did have some successes .. .
• Municipal assistance and revenue sharing
were funded at last year's levels,
• Education funding was decided early, giv-
ing municipalities and school districts more
time to plan and prepare budgets,
• A regional economic assistance program
was established and funded,
• Another economic development tool was
provided by the legislation allowing tax in-
crement financing and expanding the au-
thority of the Bond Bank to assist in muni-
cipal financing,
• Legislation allowing the state and the
municipalities to share fish tax Information
passed,
• And, we resisted legislation requiring
municipalities and school districts to comp-
ly with binding arbitration and the Public
Employees Relations Act.
• Legislation providing relief from the
misinterpretation of the Supreme Court
under Busby v. Municipality of Anchorage
failed, and a costly cloud of potential liability
remains over our police departments.
• Two entitlement programs, the Senior Citi-
zens Property Tax Relief Program and the
School Construction Debt Reimbursement
Program, were, again, underfunded.
But enough of the past. With the muni•
cipal elections behind us and the state elec-
tions only a couple of weeks away, it is time
to turn our attention to the 16th Alaska Legis-
lature. The AML Board has approved a draft
1989 Policy Statement for discussion at the
38th Annual Local Government Conference
in Fairbanks, November 16-18,1988. In addi•
tion, the AML Board has approved a draft
Municipal Platform of suggested priority
legislation for next year. I will go over it brief-
ly. I hope you will discuss these issues In your
communities, and with our legislators, and
come prepared to discuss them at the Con.
ference.
Position 1. The AML will seek passage of
legislation requiring the State to reimburse
municipalities for the cost of any new State.
mandated programs. We recognize that the
State has less money now than in the past, so
we are not asking for a lot of new costly pro•
grams or a lot more money. We are con-
cerned that the State may continue to bal-
ance its budget on the backs of municipali-
ties, therefore, under this legislation, any new
state program or shift in responsibility that
cost money at the local level to implement
will have to be reimbursed by the State or
the lawwili sunset.
We also had some losses, in addition to
the $40 million in aid to municipalities I just
Position 2. The AML will seek adequate fund-
- mentioned :.. -- - -

Legislation, sponsored by Senator Hensley

parts. For FY 90, we are asking for very little

new money but instead asking that the en-
titlement programs "on the books" be fully
funded. These include the Miscellaneous
Services Account in the State Revenue Shar•
F ing Program that provides money for roads,
fire departments; and health facilities; the
Senior Citizens Property Tax Exemption Pro-
gram; the school construction debt relm-
bursement program; and funding for edu-
cation.
in addition, we want the Legislature to
fund the FY 89 shortfall in these programs
through a supplemental appropriation of ap•
proximately $23 million.
Position 3: The League supports the reintro-
duction and passage of the legislation, last
year's HB 360, that would finance all schools,
urban and rural, through a statewide priority
grant program.
Position 4: The AML is again seeking legisla-
tion introduced last year that would raise the
minimum entitlement for communities
4! under the State Revenue Sharing Program
from $25,000 to S50,000.
I: Position 5: Another priority repeated from
E last year is legislation providing relief from
the implied liability created by the Busby case
to take persons incapacitated by alcohol or
drugs into protective custody.
Position 6: The AML will also seek passage of
legislation to clean up the election laws that
affect municipal elections. The items listed
on the sheets we've passed out have been in
our Policy Statement for a number of years
I and it's time to take care of them to ensure
efficiency and fairness in our municipal
elections.
Position 7: AML will seek the passage of
a; legislation that will allow municipalities and
joint insurance arrangements, such as the one
4 AML created this year, to use debt financing
t through the Alaska Municipal Bond Band to
establish reserves to pay losses. This will be
more critical when the "hard" insurance
market inevitably returns.
This is a plate full, but with good discus•
sion, agreement; and hard work by you, the
members, together with the League Board,
Legislative Committee, and staff, we can suc-
ceed on behalf of the people in our com-
munities. Remember, the strength of the
AML is in its membenhip.
Let me summarize how you can help
make the-AMI. stronger and mote successful:
�. • Prepare for the AML conference next
�S- monthbymaking nomination%forlheLegfs-
`1,l lative Committee and for the Board —there
are vacancies in the First and Second Vice
President seats and the At -Large and District
2,4,6 and 8 Board seats.
• Prepare resolutions and policy language to
k educate your fellow municipal officials and
state representatives about the critical needs
in out communities.
• Review and discuss the draft Policy State-
ment and the Municipal Platform in your
council and assembly meetings, and with
your Senators and Representatives, and
come prepared to finalize it at the Con-
ference.
• Review the recommended amendments to
the AML Constitution, especially those
changing the Board structure and the voting
system.
• Come to the conference.
• And, finally, help accomplish the AML leg-
islative goals throughout the year by re-
sponding to requests by the AML staff for in-
formation and to contact your legislators and
the Governor on specific legislative issues.
In addition to the legislative program, the
AML is helping you by providing other serv-
ices to help your municipal operations. On
July 1st, AML started the AML joint Insurance
Association providingcomplete, pooled risk
management services to municipalities and
school districts. Barrow and Elim are mem-
bers, and other cities represented here are
also members. I encourage all of you to join
the AMUJIA to insure your future.
Another new program that has Just been
announced is that AML has negotiated a
contract with The Office Place to provide
FAX machines to AML members at 35 per-
cent off list prices. FAX machines are becom-
ing indispensable tools in municipal opera-
tions and now you can get a machine which
has been researched and which is available
at a very low cost. There are other programs
available to AML members and 1 encourage
you to contact our Executive Di(ector, Scott
Burgess, and his staff or your Board represen-
tatives for more information.

Interim Management
Services Program Seeks
Help, Those Who Need It emi
The Alaska Municipal Management
Association (AMMA), the Alaska Municipal
League (AML), and the Department of Com-
munity and Regional Affair; (DCRA) are
seeking personnel for the newly instituted In-
terim Management Services Program (IMSP).
The program is designed to provide expert,
experienced managers to manage a city or
borough or a municipal department tem-
porarily while a recruitment process is
underway to search for and hire a perma-
nent replacement.
Local governments are continually in-
volved in the process of personnel change,
and the IMSP can help. When a manager or
department head is terminated or resigns, it
can take from one to five months to recruit
and hire a replacement. Even under the best
of circumstances, there is usually a time gap
between the departure of senior manage-
ment personnel and the arrival of the
replacement.
Interim managers may be retired or tem-
porarily unemployed public administrators
or they may be city managers, department
heads, or state local government specialists
who are currently employed but may be
released for temporary duty. Persons in-
terested in being included in the IMPS'}
"talent bank" should send a resume outlin-
ing their relevant experience, along with a
letter detailing the types of positions for
which they wish to be considered, to
Chrystal Smith, AML Programs Manager, 217
Second St., Suite 200, Juneau, AK 99801.
To ensure the quality of interim managers
available under this program to Alaskan
municipalities, applicants for the program
must be approved by AML, AMMA, and
DCRA. When a municipality is looking for a
person with specific management skills, the
talent bank coordinator will be able to refer a
group of qualified people to the local govem-
ment, which can choose from this group. As
a condition of the program, the interim
manager may not apply or be considered for
the permanent position. Other conditions of
employment will be agreed upon by the In-
terim manager and the employing
municipality. A model form of employment
agreement for the interim management ser-
vice will be available from the program
coordinator.
The Interim Management Services Pro.
gram offers local governments an alternative
way to All the staff gap caused by personnel
turnover while helping to make changes for ..
the better. The interim managers are tem-
porary, outside individuals who step inside a(
Deal government organization to run affairs
until a replacement is hired. The interim
manager can do what Is necessary to help

So Youlw. Been Elected,
Now Whet?
°y Karen Graves
.eprinted with permission from
Kansas Government Journal
By their action at the polls, the people of
u a vote of
confide ce anur d expressed faithave given h in your abil-
ity to act in their best interest. Your willing-
ness to serve hopefully demonstrates you al-
ready possess a very important quality in
becoming an effective legislator —that is, you
take yuur new Job seriously.
The first thing a new council member
should ask for is an orientation. I don't mean
that the manager or clerk handing you a box
of books containing old studies, budgets, etc.
is an orientation. There is much information
you can glean from documents around city
hall, but nothing will substitute for a well -
planned and well -executed orientation ses-
sion with your manager and department
heads.
Once you have had your orientation, you
are ready to assume your new role as a direc-
tor of one of your locality's largest corpora-
tion. Your stockholders, the citizens, will ex-
pect big things of you. Go slow at first, and
take time to settle into your new role.
1 Here are some practicial "tips."
r Be prepared to devote sufficient time to
your job. Do your "homework" before each
meeting and plan to go to bed each night
with a study resting on your chest. If you
read all the material that comes to you, you
will be a very effective council member.
Study the agenda in advance of each meet-
ing. If you need more information, go get it.
It might mean an onsite view or placing
some phone calls to people. The most im-
portant thing is to READ, READ, READ.
Organize a place in your home or office
and devote it exclusively to council mattem
You will need a filing cabinet or an accord -
Ian -pleated file, which is very inexpensive.
Buy dozens of manila folders and start filing
papers. Your topics will depend on your lo-
cality, but mine begins with "AnnexatloW
and ends with "Toning Laws" with dozens of
-files in between. If you file your papers
several times a week, you can just pull the
appropriate file when you need that parti-
cular information, it's also a handy place to
put newspaper clippings and letters from
constituents.
Take the necessary time to develop an
--esprit d'corps-whh your fellow -council
members. You'll be seeing a great deal of
them in the next several years, and you will
(- jeed to develop a spirit of teamwork and
,--cooperation with them. A council acts col-
lectively, not Independently, and personality
conflicts can be very damaging to the har-
mony you need to function.
Most matters are decided not by consen-
sus, but by actual voting, which sometimes
creates a win -loss atmosphere. Sometimes an
adversarial relationship develops. It is terribly
important to remember that you are the only
person you are going to agree with 100 per.
cent of the time and each and every person
on your governing body is entitled to their
viewpoint and opinion.
There is an old saying that the squeaky„
wheel gets the grease, Toy to beware of the
"politics of intensity,' There are many
special Interest groups. They can be well
financed, well informed, and very vocal.
Often they represent very good causes. But
remember they do not always represent as
many people in the community as their
number in your meeting room would seem
to suggest. Their requests must be weighed
against the needs of the whole locality.
Don't be stampeded into quick action.
Hasty action taken at a meeting without suf-
ficient time for public opinion to develop
and without the consequences being fully
explored almost always results in bad legisla-
tion. When some individual sweeps into
your meeting with a deal that "if you dorft
take it right now it will be gone,' the red flag
should go up in your mind. No deal is so
good that government can take quick action
without incurring great risk.
Be aware of what the public expects of
local government When a citizen comes
storming into a governing body meeting,
riled up over a certain issue, if that person is
given a fair and courteous hearing and a
chance to state his or her case, often that
person will accept the decision, even if it
goes against him.
The public expects due process, which is
having their day in court or in this instance
their say in a public meeting. After sufficient
time passes, most people will no longer be
angry with you over your vote if they realize
you were doing what you thought best for
the greatest number of people in your
community.
Remember that what you say publicly and
privately is considered news and will be
repeated. Be especially careful with your
comments about people in the employ of
the locality. Either be prepared to defend
your employees or find a clear reason why
you can't defend them.
Also, it is very Important to avoid criticiz-
ing a fellow council members stand on an
Issue. There is a terrible temptation to agree
with -someone who says, "Why in the world
did Joe vote that way?" "Boy, I sure agreed
with you on that one:' That constituent Is ob.
- viously a- very discerning person with whom
you want to agree. it really is better policy,
however, to try to explain why you think
your fellow council members voted the way
they did, without putting them down.
Develop a policy manual. Ordinances are
laws; resolutions are policy expressions.
Every local government should have an
agreed -upon policy manual so that you treat
similar situations in a similar manner. An ex-
ample would be revenue bond financing for
Industries. Each and every one of our bond
issues was different, which didn't seem fair t$
the applicants nor to the citizens. So we
developed a policy that can be applied to
every case.
One of the biggest frustrations you will find
in local government is that we seem to spend
90 percent of our time on the smallest mat-
ters and 10 percent of our time on the most
important matters. A policy manual can help
reverse that.
Recognize that we are smack In the mW-
dk of a great consumer movement when
government is concerned. People feel
alienated because of their remoteness from
government, so they kxrk to the local level of
government to become involved. They want
a say in the decision -making process. Most
professional managers grimace at the
thought because citizens' advisory groups
are time-consuming and cumbersome. But
they must be given a chance, encouraged,
and made to feel that they have a role to
play. Besides, they often are made up of peo-
ple with expertise that would be expensive If
you had to pay for it.
Know your community. This seems trite,
but you must generally be aware of the phy-
sical, as well as the fiscal, aspects of your
locality. You should be in touch with the
demographics that give important clues such
as Income data, employment statistics, per-
centage of home ownership, minority per-
centages, religious atflliation, etc. Each com-
munity is unique and council members
should be aware of the many facets of their
communities.
Keep emotions out of government. Lean
to disagree without being disagreeable.
Words spoken in anger can hurt. They can't
'---taken back, Your public is intelligent, and
you will soon lose their respect if you argue
with other governing body members or the
public. There is no place in government for
vindictive people who can't let bygones be
bygones. Being terribly angry at other people
Is letting them control you and Is a terrible
waste of time and energy.
There's an old saying that goes like this,
"A politician looks ahead to the next eleo-
don; a statesman looks ahead to the next
generation,' When you start making deci-
sions based on the next time you run for
election, you have just compromised your
effectiveness to your communky. I happen to
believe it is not bad politics to do what you
perceive to be the right thing without worry-
Ing unduly about the political consequences.
Attend meetings and conferences and
grab up all the bee you can to read later
at home. Your state municipal league is a
treasury of Information and stands ready and

so newts that it Is the gowming body's
wponsibility to puotdde polNical leadership
in your community, You are to determine the
course of action, such as the need to vote on
a local sales tax. You then help develop the
course of action and sell the plan to the
taxpayers.
It is important not only to always do the
*M d tttg but to ghat the appearance of do-
Ing the tight thing. That may sound artificial
and superficial, but there will be times when
you will know what 1 mean. You will want to
take great care to explain to the media or
public why you did what you did.
By now you are probably aware that local
government has changed over the years. His-
torically, local governments provided those
services considered absolutely essential, such
as fire and police protection, streets, utilities,
etc. The concept has changed, and now the
public considers almost as essential parks,
recreation, entertainment, convention
centers„ cultural arts, human relations, etc. In-
deed, most of the things that directly affect
our daily lives are based on decisions made
by our local govemmenfs fathers and
mothers. Will we drive to work on good
streets or pothole -ridden ones? Will our
children have adequate parks near their
homes, or will they play in the streets? WIII we
breathe clean air or smog?
4 You cared enough about these concerns to
t oNer yourself as a candidate, and you were
j elected. I'll bet you thought you were elected
to a part-time lob. Being a member of a gover-
ning body requires large amounts of study,
preparation, Investigation and thought. You
can't turn it on for your meetings and off for
the rest of the week.
Being a council member is an around -the.
clock, 365-days-a-year transaction. You will
find you cart't turn it off mentally. You are now
!s: a public person, one who got off the back
side of his lap and decided to quit
complain-ing about government and start doing
something about it. Congratulationst You

State -Local Relations
(Continued from page 3)
Cities and counties often have an ambival-
t attitude toward the way in which states
.,sow them greater latitude to raise taxes.
Doug Fleterson, a senior policy analyst for the
National League of Cities (which last year
published a good report on local revenue di-
versification), says that sometimes cities are
appreciative and consider it a genuine help,
but frequently It Is an "empty offer” because
states generally have been requiring that
voters approve sales tax increases in mfemnda
that are difficult to pass, This boils down to
"removing one hurdle but creating another,"
he said.
Some states are helping local governments
to raise revenue by reducing some of the
"rough aches" of the property tax, the
mainstay of local tax systems. Maine and Ver-
mont expanded their property -tax circuit
breakers last year, reducing the heavy burden
of this tax on the poor. Oklahoma this year is
making a major effort to Improve property tax
administration.
Another important trend for both state and
local governments is the use of impact fees
that require developers to help pay for the
costs that arise when new development takes
place. A state can pave the way for such fees
by enacting legislation that spells out how and
when they can be employed. Assemblyman
-9ominic Cortese, who authored such a bill
assed by California last year, wanted "to
-make sure that local governments have the
tools to allow development to go forward and
to ensure that fees are not exorbitant." Califor•
nia has also created new kinds of special tax.
ing districts to pay (or such construction as
highway interchanges.
Even in an era of "fend -for -yourself feder-
alism;' states have not been placingthe entire
burden of paying for services on local govem-
ments. State aid to cities and counties was
relatively depressed in the early 1980s as
states wrestled with their own serious fiscal
problems, but it increased strongly after fiscal
year 1983, the low point for state finances. In
fiscal 1986 (the last year for which data are
available), states provided $50.6 billion in aid
to cities and counties, an 18 percent increase
In Inflatiomadjusted terms from 1983. The bit
gest recent increases have not been in the
traditional aid categories like highways and
revenue sharing but rather for categorical pro.
grams to help with transit systems, cor-
rections, and housing.
When the federal government abolished
general revenue sharing in 1986, many local
governments turned to their states in hopes of
obtaining a replacement for the $4.5 billion
that was lost. Most states did notstep Into fill _
• " breach explicitly. Connecticut, Delaware,
ho, Massachusetts, New Jew, and Rhode
island are among the few states that did create
or expand state revenue -sharing programs.
(The Delaware program was for one year and
has been discontinued.) Except for Idaho
(which shared with localities a portion of the
revenue from a state salmax increase), these
states were among the fiscally strongest in the
country. Most other states were not in great
fiscal shape and concluded that local govem-
ments could absorb the loss.
To keep matters in perspective, it is impor-
tant to recognize that nearly every state al-
ready has at least one aid program that pro-
vides general support to local governments.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, such
programs provided $13.4 billion of aid in
1986. In addition, states spent another $34.6
billion that year on categorical aid to local
governments not including school aid. Many
of these aid programs are regularly expanded
either by Increasing appropriations or auto
maticaliy because they are financed by ear.
marked Gated taxes.
Mother way that states assist local govern-
ments financially is by assuming responsibility
for functions that used to be paid for by local
taxes. The most important area where this has
been occurring recently involved financing
the courts. According to the National Center
for State Courts, Iowa, Michigan, and Oregon
are among states that have assumed greater
responsibility for court costs in recent years. Il-
linois, New Jersey, Ohio, and lRennsyhania are
other states where this is a hot topic. Last year
California set up a program expected to cost
about $500 million to relieve the counties of
most of the expense of supporting the Mal
courts. In 1988 Wisconsin approved a plan for
the state to assume the costs of local district
attorneys.
Other examples of increased state respon-
sibility include Nebraska's and New York's in-
creased assumption of local Medicaid costs
and New York's takeover of the City Universi-
ty of New York.
One of the most contentious areas of state.
local relations centers around unreimbursed
mandates. States often add to local burdens
by requiring local governments to provide ser-
vices or meet certain standards without help-
ing them pay the bill for these actions. One
response to this problem has been to increase
awareness of mandates by requiring fiscal
notes on bills that impose significant financial
costs on local governments.
Fourteen states have legislative or constitu-
tional requirements that states reimburse lo.
calities for new mandates, but some of these
provisions are honored more in the breach
than the observance, since the legislature may
suspend their operation in specific cases.
When a mandate reimbursement require-
ment Is embodied in the constitution, like
California's Proposition 13, states have been
mote successful In slowing the growth of new
mandates, according to a new report by the
U.S. General -Accounting_ Office . (which _
studied selected state programs to help Con-
gress consider what to do about federal man-
dates on states and localities).
California, Massachusetts, and Rhode Is-
land are among the states where mandate
reimbursement programs have been some-
what successful In restraining new mandates.
Califomia is one of the few states where man-
dates have actually been repealed. But Allan
Burdick of the California County Supervisors'
Association points out that it may be difficult
to terminate an existing program just because
the mandate for it has been eliminated. An
unusual feature of Massachusetts' law (which
derives from Proposition 24/2) Is that local
governments do not have to abide by a man-
date 0 the state does not pay for it.
While a lot has been going on in gate -local
relations, we still seem to be in the early or
of a major long-term shift. Illinois Senator
Dawn Clark Netsch, who chaired the NCSL
State -Local Task Force last year, puts It this
way: "My Impression Is that we've certainly
raised the level of consciousness about state -
local Issues. How much that gets trandated In-
to action remains to be seen."
This years task force chairman, New York
Senator Charles Cook, goes a step further.
"Wdie still living pretty much in a traditional
mode, but thaCs going to change," he says.
Cook, who chairs the New York legislature's
Commission on Rural Resources, foresees a
major reorganization of local governments in
New York and other Northeastem states, with
counties assuming some new functions and
towns taking on more municipal activities.
The state has an important role to play as a
catalyst for these changes, which he thinks
will take decades to unfold.
If there is going to be major change in our
state -local system, attitudes are going to have
to change radically. The Task Force called on
states "to stop considering Iota) governments
like just another special interest group and to
start treating them like partners in our federal
system of providing services to citizens." This
may already be occurring, but progress seems
rather slow. While legislators and local leaders
in many states have begun to place a higher
priority on state -local affairs, the executive
branch of state government has been notable
by its silence. Until govemors decide to make
local issues a top priority as they did the
discussion of school improvement, reform of
state -local relations will tend to remain on the
back burner.
Proponents of state -local reform may be
tilting at windmills unless they can convince
more people of the importance of the issue. A
fundamental problem is that this area is not
exactly sexy. In the words of essayist Calvin
Tdllin, "Government tends to be boring, and
local government bores absolutely."
There may be a way to overcome this for-
midable hurdle. We are living in an age when
nothing .is- more _.important_ _than. com-
petltiveness, and efficiency in government is
highly prized. Improving the state -local
- system can bolster both. When that becomes
clear, a new age for state -local relations may
actually emerge, confirming the proclamation
of Mayor Joseph P. Riley of Charleston, S.C.,
that the recommendations of NCSL's Task
Force on State -Local Relations would be seen
as a watershed in the history of this Issue.

Interim Management
(continued from page 6)
keep things running smoothly until a new
manager Is appointed.
The use of an Interim manager has been
found to be particularly useful when deci-
sion makers are not sure whether they want
to hire a permanent replacement by promo-
tion from within an organization. It's often
hard to promote an "acting manager" front
within an organization when that person is
also an applicant for the permanent position.
If a decision Is ultimately made to hire some-
one from outside and the interim replace.
ment must stepback, it can create a difficult
situation for everyone involved. Alaska's pro-
gram, which is modeled on the Interim
Management Service Program of the Interna-
tional City Management Association, will be
developed, marketed, and operated by the
AML, with the financial help of DCRA. The
expense of interviewing and employing an
interim manager will be borne by the local
government needing the service. AML will
develop and maintain the talent bank and
management referral system.
The IMPS is seeking both applicants for the
talent bank and municipalities who are in-
terested in hiring interim managers. For more
information, contact Chrystal Smith at AML,
586.1325.

Transportation Task Force
Outlines Issues,
Recommends Dedicated
)ser Fees
late In 1987, Governor Steve Cowper cre-
ated the Governor's Task Force on Transpor-
tation Facilities to review the distribution of
responsibility for transportation facilities. The
charge given the task force was to advise the
Governor and the Legislature about changes
that could be made to increase the efficiency
and equity of Alaska's transportation delivery
system. The Governor further directed the
Usk force to give its view of the course of ac-
tion that should be taken to provide the best
level of transportation services to Alaskans,
given the limited financial resources avail-
able.
The twelve -member task force was struc-
tured to provide a broad spectrum of views
representing state policy makers, local gov-
ernment policy makers, and user groups.
Representing local governments were
Mayors Don Gilman of the Kenai Peninsula
Borough, Juanita Helms of the Fairbanks
North Star Borough, Dorothy Jones of the
Matanuska-Susitna Borough, Willie Good-
win of Kotzebue, and Ernie Polley of Juneau
and Anchorage Assemblymember Joe Evans.
In an introduction to the report of the task
force to the Governor and Legislature, Com-
missioner Mark Hickey, who chaired the
group, said, "in addition to other benefits
gained, the task force has determined that
the delivery of transportation services could
be more efficiently and equitably provided if
the continued care of some of Alaska's trans-
portation facilities would be more widely
distributed among various private and gov-
ernmental entities:' The task force was also
unanimous in recommending that the main-
tenance of the transportation system should
be oupported to the extent practical with
dedicated user fees.
Summaries of findings and recommenda.
tions of the task force follow. For a copy of
the complete report, contact the Commis-
sioner's Office DOTPF, P.O. Box Z, Juneau,
Alaska 99811.2500.
Findings
1. Thecondition and efficiency of Alaska's
transportation system is of vital impor-
tance to all Alaskans.
2. There Is a vast inventory of transporta.
lion facilities that requires constant
maintenance and periodic rehabili-
tation.
3. There is currently not enough funding
allocated to maintain and rehabilitate
the transportation system.
4. Maintenance is being increasingly defer,
red over portions of the transportation
system.
5. Portions of the transportation system are
deteriorating and, as deterioration pro-
gresses, become more costly to repair.
6. There is little likelihood that additional
funding will be available from the
general fund; therefore, other sources of
funding need to be examined.
7. The DOTIPF is responsible for some
transportation facilities that would or-
dinarily in other states be the respon-
sibility of local government.
B. The DOfiPF's responsibility for local
transportation facilities makes it difficult
to give clear focus to statewide issues in-
cluding performance of a statutory duty
to provide statewide planning.
9. Financial considerations associated with
rehabilitating local roads will need to be
addressed regardless of how alignment
of responsibility is resolved.
10. The frequent changes in leadership at
DOTIPF cause problems that affect the
efficiency of the delivery of transporta-
tion services.
11. Funding for the road service account in
the Municipal Revenue Sharing Program
should be stabilized.
Recommendations
i. The maintenance of Alaska's transporta-
tion system should be supported, to the
degree possible, through user fees.
2. User fee revenues should be dedicated.
3. The state should have an annually up-
dated six year revenue plan for trans-
portation.
4. There should be greater emphasis on a
costlbenefit analysis of capital projects
during the state planning process.
S. Responsibility for the maintenance of
capital projects should be determined
before they are built.
6. Responsibility for existing transportation
facilities should W-clarified and revi-
sions made where cost efficiencies can
be clearly indicated.
7. There should be an orderly program de-
veloped to transfer responsibility for
some transportation facilities from the
state to local government.
8. - Statutory powers of local government
for providing transportation services
should be made more uniform.
9. The state and local communities should
eliminate duplication of transportation
services in some communities.
10. The state should aggressively attempt to
influence the new federal highway
program.
11. The merits of creating a board of com-
missioners to oversee DOTIPF should be
analyzed.
Ethical Insight,

ICMA recently published Ethical Insight,
Ethical Actions Ner*ecdvo for the ftaeal
Gowernmed Manama The book focuses on
both personal and organizational ethics, how
they are interrelated, and how they both af-
fect local government ethics. It Is a compen-
dium of fifteen articles that examine indivi.
dual vs. organizational ethics, offer guide-
lines for government organizational ethics,
and analyze codes of ethics in theory and
practice. The book also gives advice on how
to assess the ethics of individuals and ogpni-
zations, how to stop passing -"the ethics
buck;' and how to apply ethical tools to
achieve organizational purposes. Procedures
and programs to help strengthen values In
local government are described. A special
section details the wide-ranging arguments
for and against ethical codes and describes
ethical dilemmas managers are likely to bm
Elizabeth IL Kellar, Associate Director of
ICMA and staff advisor to ICMAs Committee
on professional Conduct is the editor of Ethb
atInsyht, Ethical Action.
ICMA established a Code of Ethics for city
managers in 1924 and has an ongoing en-
forcement program. Last year the association
investigated 33 ethics complaints, publicly
censuring one member and privately censur-
ing four members. The cases dealt with con-
flicts of Interest, failure to disclose a business
relationship, inaccurate resumes, and Politi-
cal activity. Robert E. Smith, former manager
of the Municipality of Anchorage, was pub-
licly censured for violating the third tenet of
the ICMA code of ethics, which calls for
dedication to the "highest ideals of honor
and integrity in all public and personal rela-
tionships in order that the member may
merit the respect and confidence of the
elected officials, or other officials and
employees, and of the public."

IIMC Produces Video on
Municipal Clerk's Role
The International institute of Municipal
Clerks (IIMC) has produced a 15-minute
video cassette entitled 'The Clerk's Worth;'
which focuses on the role of the municipal
clerk in local government. The popularly
presented, professionally produced video is
designed to inform the general public, serv-
ice clubs, community groups, and municipal
officials on the importance of the office of
municipal clerk.
it covers the historic development of the
office and the variety of its duties and func-
tions in cities throughout the world, with
specific examples of the actual services per-
formed by clerks in large and small jurisdic-
tions. The video shows the need for a strong
and continuous education program for
municipal clerks and discusses such things as
the IIMC Certification Program, the Academy -
for Advanced Education, the Municipal
Clerks Institutes, the Annual Conference,
and the Municipal Clerks Education Foun-
dation.
Prepared for IIMC by the Georgia Center
Glenda Catli
Secretary
for Continuing Education, the video is in full
color, professionally narrated, and features a
blend of interviews, on -site depictions, uni-
que graphics, and an original music score.
The project, which was almost three years in
the making, came about through the efforts
of the IIMC Professional Status Committee.
Copies of "The Clerk's Worth" video cas-
sette in VHS format can be purchased out-
right for$100 or rented for a maximum of 10
days, including delivery time, for $25 plus
postage (regular, express, or carrier). Special

Year substantive and some of them relatively superficial. Proba-
bly the most substantial change was made in executive per-
sonnel, most of which were initiated by senior executive
members taking advantage of the state and borough early re-
tirement plan. One area which had some major personnel

A review of existing borough departments ended in some
minor changes in other staffing and program consolidation.
In general, it was determined that borough government was
in good condition both financially and functionally.
'Economy'

The economy of the borough shows signs of reaching the
bottom of the recent downturn. Most troublesome still seems
to be the real estate values, particularly in commercial,
multi -family rentals and large residential properties. The
borough assessments dropped approximately $5Q0,00g.ML
from 9 "ear v

14961 overall. There was an expectation that a continued
erosion of the value of property would occur but at a much
lower pace (59b or less). However, sales figures compiled as
recently as October 15, seem to indicate that the expected
slide in values will not continue.
A problem area which surfaced for -the assessing department, - -
industrial assessments, has been addressed by retaining a
professional appraising firm to determine the value of the

assessments for 1989.
Seward has been setting a standard for all of south central
Alaska in aggressively working as a community to diversify
and strengthen its economy. Major private investments are
following in response to public investments for port, trans-
portation and correctional facilities. Leading the private in-
vestments are a $12 to $15 million sawmill, new and ex-
panded fish processing plants, bulk fuel storage facilities to
serve large marine vessels, other smaller but significant
marine related investments, and several commercial activi-
ties. 1988 saw 44 cruise ship dockings at the Port of Seward
Furthermore, housing unit starts were up by dramatic num-
bers (from 1 in 1987 to 30 through mid -October this year)
and taxable sales increased by over 69o' in the first two quar-
ters of 1988 (an increase of 9% in the 2nd quarter over the
2nd quarter in 1987).
The Homer area has felt the positive results of the Bradley
Lake Hydroelectric project. Furthermore, the fast vessel of
Oceantrawl's catcher/processor fleet arrived this spring to
homeport in Homer. As the first peninsula community to
attract a share of Alaska's expanding bottomfish industry,
public investment is going to build a more than $3 million
deepwater dock to serve this and a variety of other antici-
pated private investments, including cold storage and main-
tenance facilities. Homer port facilities will also serve as the
loading point for 26 million board feet of Korea bound logs
per year for the next 10 years as a result of a major timber
harvest on Ninilchik Native Association Lands.
Seldovia has hired a new city manager and efforts are
underway to strengthen the economic outlook in this commu-
nity. The Seldovia Native Association recently negotiated a
timber sale, and in the first two quarters of 1988 taxable
sales held close to 1987 levels, while gross sales realized a
modest increase.

ings of Cook Inlet fishermen, a strong summer tourism sea.
son, and steady employment at the Nikiski oil and gas proc-
essing facilities. Wdotna maintained its taxable odes lead
over peninsula communities for the first two quarters of
1988, while Kenai had dose to an 11% gain in second quarter
taxable sales over last year's second quarter.
Public investments in Kenai having had a positive impact on
the local economy include the now Federal Aviation
Administration's Flight Service Station and the City's public
dock facility. The recently completed Boat plane basin at the
Kenai Municipal Airport and a proposed cold storage facility
(to accommodate year-round processing of fish near the
public dock) are other municipal projects aimed at stimulaV
ing economic growth.
Soldotna is budding on its strengths as a hub of tourism
and retail trade activity with the recently completed Kenai
Peninsula Visitor Information Center. However, strides have
also been taken to diversify the economy with the private
investment of a seafood processor and processing plant (Sea.
foods from Alaska) and plans for industrial park development
at the Soldotna airport.
t The other areas of the borough have benefitted from the
strength of the area's basic industries. These other areas
... . . . . . . . . show a significant 27% increase in gross sales for the first
two quarters of 1988, while holding close to 1987 levels for
taxable sales. Prospects for the future still point toward the
major coal projects in the Beluga area as marketing efforts
continue and for the value-added development of other penin-
sula resources.

'Borough The borough has six basic services which the legislature or
the people of the borough have determined the borough shall
Services
. provide. They are: education, planning and zoning, assess-
ment and collection of taxes, solid waste, emergency services
'
(911), and senior citizen assistance. All other services are
provided by service areas in non area -wide functions. They
include: fire, ambulance (EMS), recreation, road mainte-
nance, and hospitals. EMS services usually include search
and rescue.
Education financing continues to be the major recipient of
. borough tax dollars for both facility and operating costs. The
1989 fiscal year budget allocated approximately 85% of local
resources to education. -.Of the general fund appropriations,
45% was allocated to pay school debt. Of the school appro-
priation, 60% was for debt. In other words, we have ex-
tremely high debt payments which, if not cushioned by state
a participation in the debt reimbursement program, could be
staggering to the taxpayers of the borough. If the state quit
paying on the school bonds, we would have to immediately
double the borough tax rate if the same service base were to
} be maintained. Maintenance of the entitlement payments on
- school bonds has to continue to be the number one legislative
,Y priority for this municipality!
The local share for school operations has reached its mad-
mum- The assembly can no longer add to the local share
_ - because the mill rate cap has been reached. In fact, it ap-
pears that the local share will be slightly lose than it was in
1
. FY 1989. Without getting into minute details, the cap has
.: been reached by a cause and effect relationship of the drop in
..... `' evaluation. Simply stated, school funding of local share is
based on the ability of a community to pay. As the assessed
value drops the ability to pay drops and only so much burden

is placed on the local area. We have reached the maximum
burden prescribed by law.

...Borough emphasis now must shift to maintenance of the existing fa-
cilities and the maximum utilization of existing space in
order to most efficiently use what we have already built.
The borough planning department has come under more
intense scrutiny in the past few months because of some
events that highlight deficiencies in the planning functions.
The denial of a location for a drilling mud disposal site, the
lack of a coherent forest management plan, the determina-
tion that oil and gas drilling constitutes a noxious, injurious
or hazardous activity which requires a borough permit, the
problems of isolated subdivisions which require crossing of
private land, and a myriad of environmental concerns within
the borough bring into question the wisdom of a 'no long
range planning' policy which has prevailed in the borough
since it was established. The assembly, the administration,
industry, communities, and the general public are going to
have to arrive at some kind of consensus concerning the level
of local involvement in the regulatory process. Ordinances
must be within constitutional guidelines to meet legal chal-
lenges. We must be careful not to reinvent the wheel and not
regulate just to be regulating. We need to coordinate and
communicate with other regulators so as not to overlap un-
necessary jurisdictions. But we must begin to take control of
our own destiny if we really are going to reflect the times and
conditions that prevail today.
The assessing and tax collection mandate given to the bor-
ough by the State of Alaska probably is in the best adminis-
trative condition that has existed in the history of the bor-
ough. The decision by the assembly to request that the State
Division of Motor Vehicles collect the personal property tax
on licensed vehicles will reduce -the personal property ac-
counts by about 12,000 (includes supplemental and re -
billings). It has freed one hill -time person to work on -other -
personal property auditing and the result has been that
nearly $100,000,000 more in personal property, exclusive of
automotive vehicles has been added to the tax rolls. In two

'...Borough days 87 mobile homes were located. Almost $25,000,000 in
Services' boats were logged in two boat harbors. `
Tax collections, particularly sales tax, have been tightened.
However, the final procedure for enforcement, which is
seizure of inventory, property, etc., is very time consuming
and can take weeks through the court. It is too early to tell
whether the enforcement process is really working at a level we wish.
Property tax foreclosure sales have lagged behind schedule.
The tax department is currently putting together a tax sale
which will be scheduled in the near future. in order to have
a functioning tax system we must be willing to enforce the
code through to the final act of selling property for taxes due.
The solid waste function of borough government is probably
the most bothersome, troublesome and potentially litigous
service in which we are involved. The lessons of the Sterling
Waste Site should be stamped indelibly on our forehead of
memory. The borough, reacting to needs of the industry and
to the direction of the State Department of Environmental
Conservation, provided land for a drilling mud disposal
facility. In a 13 year period the program went from a noble
venture to assist the development of the community to a
controversial item which pitted neighbors in the area against
the local and state government. The result has been a cost to
the state and borough taxpayer of over $1,000,000 to clean up
a facility and a need to monitor the site in perpetuity so that
if any harmful substances begin to enter the ground-
water they may be detected.
New laws and regulations, many of which shift the burden of
planning and regulating to the local government, have been -
passed by Congress, thestate legislature, and the agencies
responsible for the overseeing of the protection of the envi-
ronment. The major area of concern for the borough remains
the landfills and the issues surrounding the location and

b. Theborough, in conjunction with private recycling inter -
eats, should begin to establish a system of recycling that will

erations &
program has to be an educational program to get the public ,
to voluntarily separate those items. which are recyclable.
Recommen-
Private industry involvement in this project is more than
dations'
desirable. It is highly unlikely that a well thought out racy-
cling plan can be put into effect without private enterprise
,
involved in collection, storage. transportation and marketing.
6. The best estimate to put into effect the solid waste plan
just outlined would be in the $9 -10 million range. The
financing will probably have to be local in nature, more
specifically a bond issue in the fall of 1989. We have applied
to the state for matching funds, but the 60.60 program which
-
DEC has authorized, has not been funded for a number of
'
years. If we had to fund it ourselves through sale of bonds. 1
the estimate for the cost would be about 1/2 mill (A for a „
period of 10 years. That figure does not include any adds- 1
tional operating cost, which would be substantial.
t`
I hope the assembly will join the administration in placing
problem as the number one capital priority to address for i
this p
�
the coming year.
School Funding: I recommend that we reexamine the
c >'
methods we now use for determining the local share for
school funding.
1. The school foundation plan has abuilt-in cap. According
to the formula, only so much money maybe allocated for the !
'
T
local share. In fiscal year 1989-90 the cap will be reached It f
c
is estimated that the local share can not exceed the amount
- - ---------- - :-
appropriated during FY 1988.89.
- -
s
2. Since maintenance and insurance for school facilities
must be included in the local share for education, we will be-
'''
taking a very close look at what legitimately must be charged
to education. One option is to place maintenance under the
z,.
i,.
Li
- - J-
,- -
i
1 9 S 8 - 8 8

Page Z
"
school board and include the maintenance budgot as part of
the school budget. This would necessitate a very close identi-
fication of maintenance tasks versus public works tasks. It
probably would mean some personnel shifts from mainte-
nance to public works, Another option would be to consoli-
date the public works and maintenance departments with a
school maintenance section being charged to the local share.
1. We will be submitting a rewrite of our land management
'Other
and disposal ordinances. In the near future we will be able
Recommen. to give the assembly a complete analysis of our land, includ-
ing location, some information as to the characteristics, what
dations
resource values it may have and whether the land has some
commitment; i.e. lease to other parties. After this analysis,
we would be able to revise our code so that we can dispose of
land when it is deemed in the public interest to do so.
2. I will be recommending that we consider creating another
department. For lack of a better term, I will call it a "central
?
services" department. There are a number of functions that
'
are back-up to other departments, but belong to no depart-
ment. Some of those functions are: personnel, data process-
ing, emergency management, 811 communications, and
senior citizen programs. Some other functions are now
r
within a department but should not necessarily be charged to
t
that department. For instance, insurance is within the fi-
'' '
nance department but applies to all departments as is the
case with the print shop and purchasing in finance, and
'
records management with the clerk. As a result, many of the
above functions tend to fend for themselves and don't always
get the attention that they may deserve.
s
3. We will be putting before the assembly a tax foreclosure '
- - - - -
sale. We will be making this sale an annual event, to be held
in the spring (April or May). We must be prepared to take
the ultimate step in enforcement of our tax code. That step,
of course, is sale of land and property for taxes due.
t;
a]
'...Other
Recommen-
dations'
r'1
1 9 8 8 - 8 9
'State of the Borough Address'
Page XI

We will also continue to evaluate how successi d our steppe ,
up efforts in sales tax collection have been. I believe it is still
too early to determine whether those enforcement areas we `
began to stress are really doing the job or whether we must
take additional steps.
4. I recommend that we continue to give support to
the Economic Development District. I feel that we must
commit at least three to five years to the EDD before we can
fairly evaluate whether the district truly is a tool for eco-
nomic development.
b. There are thirteen service areas which had a total
of $10,879,953 appropriated for FY 1988-89 expenses. This is
in contrast to $8,913,114 appropriated for the general gov-
ernment (does not include school maintenance or insurance).
In other words, more tax dollars go toward service area func-
tions than toward the operation of general government.
Administratively we will be analyzing how much of our gen-
eral government burden is chargeable to service areas. We
will also be analyzing how service areas may function more
efficiently and effectively.
6. For a final recommendation, I feel we must take extreme
care in the signals we send to the state capital. This year,
and probably in several years to come, state revenues will be
dwindling. We cannot send a message of spend, spend, spend
without expecting to get back a message of cut, cut, cut.
We must be prepared to adjust as oil prices move up and
down. I believe that we will be asked to shoulder more and
more of the burden through local resources so we must be
ready to react through either curtailment of services, raising
of local revenue, or both. --
I feel we should drop our involvement in the state road pro-
gram as it relates to the prioritization of state improvement rMI

..Other on roads. We should only get involved when the legislature
or the State Department of Transportation (DOT) request
ReCOMMen' that we provide administration of projects. I believe we are
dational misleading the public when they are told that they have to
got their road on the borough's road Hat. State roads are the
responsibility of the State of Alaska and all we have done is
set up a buck pass system which results in the borough, the
legislature and DOT pointing fingers at each other. The
resident is left bewildered wondering who really is in charge.
My staff and I are working on all of these recommendations
and we will be bringing forward to you, the assembly and
public, most of these items either by specific ordinance or by
virtue of the budget.
I would be pleased if any of you would respond to thisstate
of the borough' message and let me know whether you agree,
disagree, or have other ideas for solutions.

FACT SHEET ON rARE!G11JERS
LM 1987, A NATIONAL SURVEY OF
"REGIVERS WAS CONDUCTED FOR THE
AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF RETIRED
PERSONS, AND THE TP,AQELERS COMPANIES
FOUNDATION. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS
RESEARCH, A CAPEGIVER WAS DEFINED AS
SOMEONE WHO PROVIDES UNPAID
ASSISTANCE TO ti SECOND PERSON, AGED
50 OR OLDER, NEEDING HELP WITH ONE
ACTIVITY OF DAILY LIVING, DRESSING,
BATHING, FEEDING, TOILETING AND
TRANSFERRING, OR TWO INSTRUMENTAL
ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING, GROCERY
SHOPPING, MANAGING FINANCES,
HOUSEWORK, MEAL PREPARATION,
TRANSPORTATION, ADMINISTERING
MEDICATIONS, ETC.
WHO ARE CAREGIVERS?
SEVENTY-FIVE PERCENT OF CAREGIVERS
ARE FEMALE.
. THE AVERAGE (AGE '3 46 WITH 28Y.
UNDER 35 AND 15Y. OVER 65.
SIXTY-SIX PERCENT ARE MARRIED.
ONLY 37% SHARE A HOUSEHOLD WITH
THE CARE RECIPIENT.
APPROXIMATELY ONE-THIRD OF
�REGIVERS "BECAME CAREGIVERS"
vcCAUSE THEY LIVE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY
TO THE OLDER PERSON; 18% BECAUSE THEY
HAVE A CLOSER RELATIONSHIP WITH THE
OLDER PERSONS AND 16Y. BECAUSE NO ONE
ELSE WOULD DO IT.
WHO DO THEY CARE FOR?
CARE RECIPIENTS ARE GENERALLY
RELATIVES OF THE CAREGIVER, 35%, MOST
LIKELY A MOTHER.
FIFTY PERCENT LIVE IN THEIR OWN
HOME OR APARTMENT.
FIFTY EIGHT PERCENT ARE HOUSEBOUND
AND 28% OF THE HOUSEBOUND OLDER
PERSONS ARE ALSO BEDRIDDEN WHILE 24%
ARE WHEELCHAIR BOUND.
THE AVERAGE AGE IS 77 WITH 24%
OVER THE AGE OF 85.
...ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
CHECK YOUR AGING RELATIVE'S RESIDENCE
IN TERMS OF THE FOLLOWING ASPECTSe
.IS THE TOILET CLOSE ENOUGH TO REACH
IT IN TIME?
.IS THE BED UP T00 HIGH? THE BED
SHOULD BE LOW ENOUGH THAT WHEN A
PERSON SITS ON THE SIDE, THEIR FEET
ARE FLAT ON THE FLOOR.
.IS THERE PRIVACY? SOME PEOPLE HATE
TO GO TO THE BATHROOM WHEN OTHER
PEOPLE AND KIDS RUNNING AHEAD TO THE
TOILET. IT MAY SEEM EASIER TO WAIT,
WAITING COULD BE TOO LATE.
.ARE WALKING AIDS ADEQUATE? WALKING
AIDS CAN MAKE THE TRIP TO THE BATHROOM
EASIER.
.IS THE TOILET CUBICLE LARE ENOUGH TO
ACCOMMODATE A WALKER OR WHEELCHAIR?
GETTING ON AND OFF THE TOILET IS NOT
AS HARD ON SORE, STIFF JOINTS WHEN THE
SEAT IS ELEVATED. GRAS BARS OR TOILET
SEAT ARMS ALSO MAKE GETTING ON AND OFF
EASIER.
.IS THE PERSON BEDRIDDEN, GETTING THE
PROPER BEDPANS COULD HELP WITH THE
PROBLEM.
IF CHANGING ANY OF THESE THINGS MAKES
A DIFFERENCE, YOU HAVE FOUND THE CAUSE
OF INCONTINENCE. IF THE PROBLEM IS
NOT ENVIRONMENTAL, THEN PSYSHOLOGIAL
PROBLEMS MAY BE THE CAUSE.
......PSYCHOLOGICAL
ALTHOUGH DELIBERATE INCONTINENCE IS
RARE, PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS CAN CAUSE
INCONTINENCE. DEPRESSION, BECOMING
LONELY, NOT FEELING IMPORTANT OR
NEEDED.... INCONTINENCE CAN BECOME A
SUBSTITUTE FOR SOMETHING YOUR TASK IS
TO FIND WHAT THAT SOMETHING IS. IF IN
FACT THE PROBLEM IS DELIBERATE
INCONTINENCE, YOU MAY NEED TO SEEK
PROFESSIONAL HELP. FEAR OF FALLING IS
ANOTHER CAUSE. IF THE OLDER -PERSON IS
UNSTEADY ON HER FEET, THE FEAR OF
FALLING MAY PREVENT HER FROM GETTING
TO THE BATHROOM ON TIME.
DEALING WITH BLADDER PROBLEMS .......NEXT
FRUSTRATION AND DISMAY ARE OFTEN THE FACTORS
INITIAL - - RESPONSE -TO THE ELDER' S LOSS
OF CONTROL OVER HER BLADDER. TO COPE *OUR AGING PE
WITH THE SITUATION AND KEEP IT FROM ZTO
COMING MORE OF A PROBLEM, YOU MUST
b6JECTIVELY LOOK FOR THE CAUSE. THE
PROBLEM COULD STEM FROM
ENVIRONMENTAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, 0
PHYSIOLOGICAL CAUSES. THIS MONTH W
WILL REVIEW THE ENVIRONMEN L
FACTORS.
