C. PUBLIC HEARINGS
C-1 Ord. 1305-89 - Amending KMC, Title 14 - Bed & Breakf,ist
Establishments
MOTIOI4:
Councilwoman O'Reilly moved, seconded by Councilman
Measles, to adopt the ordinance.
There was no public comment.
Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote.
C-2 Ord. 1306-89 - Amending KMC, Title 14 - R/V Parks
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley moved, seconded by Councilman
McComsey, to adopt the ordinance.
There was no public comment.
Mayor Williams. Regarding prohibited use
(14.20.245-d-3). This is recreational country. We
have a lot of R/V's and recreation -minded relatives
coming to visit us. I don't think this allows for
that. Councilman Measles. a) Regarding blocking
vehicles - that could be determined as those with
leveling under the vehicles. b) Who will enforce ov=r
30 days? Councilman Smalley. 30 days was the biggest
discussion at P&Z. The statement was, generally
speaking, unless it is called in, the City will not
enforce. But it allows the City to take action whet
there is a problem. Skirting -in was in reference to
trailers blocked up, skirted and lived in. Councilman
Measles. The other problem is putting a law on the
books that is not enforced till there is a complaint.
Atty. Rogers. That is exactly what will happen with
this. It will be selective enforcement. It will have
to be expanded and explored in the courts. Councilman
McComsey. Item d-3, is each one reason to enforce -
or do all have to be violated? AEty. Rogers. Any one.
He suggested changing to, "includes but not limited
to." Councilwoman Swarner. Why not delete item d? We
are more concerned about R/V parks, not places they
cannot park. Councilman Smalley. If you delete item
d, you will have a problem. Complaints received thus
far are spelled out in this ordinance. The City does
not have manpower to enforce, it will be by complaint
only. The way it is now there is nothing. Mayor
Williams suggested Council specify areas most concerned
with and hold to March 15 meeting. Councilwoman
O'Reilly. I am thinking in terms of families living in
Kenai that have a family that will stay more than one

month. We do not have camping space. Mayor Williams.
They cannot hook up to water & sewer either.
Councilwoman Swarner. If we keep item d in, there
should be a time frame, so if you had company, they
could stay for a short time. Mayor Williams. All
cities have laws regarding campers parking in streets
and camping. It is very dangerous.
Planning & Zoning Commissioner Bannock. P&Z felt that
hook-ups were in reference to a 30 day time limit. `.'ou
could do what you wanted up to 30 days, take them out
after 30 days and put them into developing R/V parks
Mayor Williams. The ordinance was written for one pctrt
of the City but other parts could let R/V's stay in
their area. Councilman Smalley. a) The definition of
blocking should be added. b) There should be a time
frame. Commissioner Bannock. P&Z is trying to keep
people from living in R/V's in back yards. Mayor
Williams. Should it be 30 continuous days? Councilman
Smalley suggested 30 consecutive days. Commissioner
Bannock. Our tourist season is 90 days. After 30 d&ys
in a driveway, it should be moved. Mayor Williams. We
have had complaints in the past regarding neighbors
parking for a long time? Public Works Director
Kornelis - no.
Councilman Measles. A vehicle is parked in a driveway,
this only applies to occupying and using as sleeping
accommodations. Is it not a nuisance if it is parkec:
all year? Many people park all year and only use in
the summer. Councilman Smalley. The ordinance is criy
dealing with R/V's being used. Councilman Measles.
Why is that more of a nuisance than the other?
Councilwoman O'Reilly. Under item d-3, saying "but is
not limited to" does the opposite of your intent.
There are other indications of putting up house -keeping
but we do not know about it. Atty. Rogers suggested
adding the word "includes" before the phrase. Mayor
Williams. This gives discretion to the municipal
official, hopefully they will exercise discretion.
Councilwoman Swarner. The ordinance refers to R/V
parks, this refers to R/V use. It should be separated.
Mayor Williams. The reason for the ordinance is to aet
people to use the parks for long term use.
Councilman Measles. Items E-1, A-1 and A-2 refer to
R/V parks. E-1 is for canneries. Commissioner
Bannock. I do not remember discussing A-1 and A-2.
Councilman Smalley. Discussion was that canneries that
had been there for a long time would be affected.
MOTION, Amendment:
Councilman MCComsey moved, seconded by Councilwoman
O'Reilly that the ordinance be amended to read:
Section 14.20.320-62, line 3. Change "motive" to
"motor."
Section 14.20.245-d-3. "While such vehicle is parkec
on private property and set up for long term use. Lcrig
term use includes, but is not limited to, connection t.o
external fuel tanks or natural gas, skirting in, or
exceeding thirty (30) consecutive days."
Section 14.20.245-e-1. " Section (d) above shall in no
way be construed as to prevent the historical use of
recreational vehicles by workers employed in the
r"=—

cannery business if the recreational vehicles are on

Clerk Ruotsala reported the Kenai Borough has submitted
a protest against renewal of the liquor license because
of delinquent sales tax and property tax. Mr. Baxter
asked to speak to Council.
Mike Baxter, Kenai. Within the next week to 10 days I
will clear up this account. I understood there would
be 30 days before action would be taken. I was
surprised with the Borough action. I would ask Council.

Program Director Porter. The reason it had to be done
up quickly is, she received a letter from the Older
Alaskans Commission. They had $14,000 left from
training funds that needed to be spent by March 31.
People could put in proposals. I put in one for
$1,300. I put in for a 2 weeks advance ticket
pre -paid. I received approval late Friday.
Councilwoman Swarner. Who is going? Program Director
Porter. I had requested Liz Schubert because of the
Day Care training, she did not want to, so I will go.

Director Porter'. Yes, with no match.

KENAI CITY COUNCIL
MARCH 1, 1989
PAGE 6
Motion passed by unanimous consent.
Councilwoman Monfor asked for an explanation. Public
works Director reviewed Change Order #2, distributed
this date. Councilwoman Monfor. I was not at the last
meeting. Part of the problem is, there is more
asbestos than they thought? Public Works Director
Kornelis - yes. Councilwoman Monfor. Have they
searched and there is no more? Public Works Director
Kornelis. This was asked at the last meeting. Mayor
Williams. This is the 2nd time, the 3rd batch of
asbestos.
Public Works Director Kornelis. It has gone from
$12,000 to $21,000 to an increase of $26,000. It will
be $48,000 if this ordinance passes. People removing
the tile looked at the insulation on the piping. The
joints were asbestos, the roof drains were asbestos,
the pipes were fiberglass. We have to make note that
there is asbestos. If we don't, we are liable; we haje
to remove or encapsulate. Anchorage airport :is having
t:he same problem. The same firm as ours is doing the
work. Bill Kluge tarchitect) did some calling.
Anchorage felt they were a good firm. If we do not
remove the asbestos, we have 3 options as listed.
Option 1 would save about $9,000 but we would have
quite a problem, we would have to watch it. I though:
of purchasing equipment to handle this, but it is not
cost effective. I asked if the Borough could help us,
but it would be difficult to work with them.
Councilwoman Monfor. We don't have much choice with
this. somewhere along the line we should have found
out about this. She suggested Public Works Director
Kornelis or someone go to the next asbestos class to
see how it is managed. If it costs $21,000 to take up
tale, someone is making a bundle. We are caught in a
band. It will not be ready for the tourist season.
Councilwoman O'Reilly. Regarding option 3, is that a;i
insurance policy? Public Works Director Kornelis.
Option 2, the mastic that giued the carpet has
asbestos. 'EPA and the Borough has said we cannot
encapsulate, it is still there, we have to note on thf�
drawings. Option 3 is to take all mastic up, but it
would be $45,000 plus $21,100 that we already have. We
do not recommend option 3. Councilman Measles. We
already at the last meeting approved $21,000 and now
another $26,000 and we are not doing option 3. We will
spend $48,000. Public Works Director Kornelis. For
that we will not get all the asbestos out. If we wane_
option 3 it would be $45,000+. Many times asbestos it
not removed. The change order has been passed at
$21,000+. This change order is for $26,000+.
Councilwoman O'Reilly. Do we have guarantees? Public:
Works Director Kornelis - no.
A'_rport Manager Ernst. I am upset about this. Whether
it is Architect Gintoli or Architect Kluge, they shou..d
note these situations and let us be informed of this.
There is nothing we can do about it. These people are
reputable and reasonable. Mayor Williams. I am upse+:
we did not check the furnace. Any 10 year old building
has asbestos.
Architect Bill Kluge, Kenai. We did check but they had
asbestos on the fittings. The insulation exposed was
fiberglass. We hired a consultant for asbestos, they
came back positive. We got prices. After the asbestos
KENAI CITY COUNCIL
MARCH 1, 1989
PAGE 7
contractor came on the property, he pointed out 2 other
areas. Councilwoman Swarner. When did you have
samples done? Mr. Kluge. Before the first change
order. The plans did not show existing piping. The
consultants came on the project, they are familiar with
this and they took samples. I talked to the EPA
representative. He said if layering material was left
in, it would have to be under repair and maintenance.
Anchorage airport was started with $30,000, is now
$160,000. We got 2 prices for abatement, they found
additional asbestos.
Councilwoman Monfor. Page 10 of the Feb. 15 meeting,
Public Works Director Kornelis had said he doubted it
(if they will find more). Mr. Kluge had said he did
not see any more. I am afraid we will be doing this
again. I want to know who is in the room with all the
danger signs checking for our interests. Public Work.
Director Kornelis. They will not let anyone in. Mr.
Kluge. I am the inspector on the job.
According to Mr. Stewart (Central Environmental
Services), we have identical problems (as Anchorage).
We have a contractor that has worked well with us. HE
has not asked for an extension of time. The
subcontractor has asked for the time it will take. I
see a possible impact claim, that would be money
wasted. Timing is critical.
Councilman Smalley. In your best opinion and the
opinion of the man doing the work, have all areas beer
exposed that could contain asbestos? Mr. Kluge. To
the best of my knowledge. The specialists have said
yes. Councilman Smalley. It may be in the best
interests of Council to have the gentleman talk to us.
Public Works Director Kornelis. He will be out of here
by the end of next week. Mr. Kluge. Part of his
service is to document his work. Then we can start oLr
operation and maintenance. The glue on the new carpet
will encapsulate. Then you monitor the carpet for
holes.
Councilwoman O'Reilly. Suppose we decide to recarpet?
Mr. Kluge. It is easy to release the glue.
Councilwoman O'Reilly. If the carpet was removed in 5
years, would there be Federal requirements? Mr. Kluge.
You would have to monitor the work. But one of the
reasons we had additional adhesive that was not
identified is because it was in the dining room. It
was not visible because the adhesive was covering the
asbestos.
MOTION, 2nd Reading:
Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilwoman
Monfor, to have the 2nd reading of the ordinance this
date.
Motion passed by unanimous consent.
MOTION:
Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilman
McComsey, to adopt the ordinance.
There was no public comment.

D-3 Economic Development Commission
Mayor Williams. The Economic Development Comm. had a
meeting Feb. 16 without a quorum - 3 of the 5 members.
They took action, Council will have to act
independently in order to pass the request for the
Alaska -Korean representative donation. They also
approved their budget. The motion should be to refer
to Council for approval. Also, they could not approv
the budget without a quorum. Councilman McComsey. Is
there any benefit to us (sending a representative to
Korea)? Mayor Williams. The Borough Economic
Development District will send a person based on
several projects they are involved in. Whether or not
any great benefit will accrue, we do not know. It is
like advertising. You cannot pinpoint. They are
asking all cities for funds. Shelly Edwards, EDD, will
be going. Councilwoman Swarner. Would it come out of
Economic Development Comm. budget? Answer - yes.
Councilwoman Swarner. What part? Answer - travel.
Councilwoman Swarner. Are there funds? Accountant
Parnell was asked to check the balance in the account.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Swarner moved, seconded by Councilwoman
O'Reilly, to allocate $250 at Economic Development
Comm. suggestion if they have it in their travel budget
(to help send a representative of the Economic
Development District to the Alaska/Korean Conference).

VOTE:
Councilwoman O'Reilly. Did you receive any information
regarding the cost and number of members that are

with working with the Koreans on LNG. It is on hold by
the Koreans. They will be here for about 6 weeks to
look at all our energy resources.
Accountant Parnell reported there was enough money.

Did you invite the Cherrier Bros.? Answer - yes
I talked to Bob Scott (Salamatof Seafoods). I
said that the City is against the wall with any

the shore leases. Bob Scott said he did not
realize this. I told him the EDA block put a
block on the Governor's $1 Million request.
Neither legislator will move without consent of
the processors. The Governor has defended this,
but I cannot ask him to continue without support
at home. If the result of the meeting is that the
City should not be involved, I will call the
Governor March 20 and release the $1 Million. I
do not. want to. I showed Bob Scott the City

Subject: Legislative Funding Requests
Here are some funding requests which were endorsed by the Soldotna City
Council at a regular meeting held February 15, 1989. They include:
1) A request for $150,000 to be appropriated to the Department of
Transportation and Public Facilities for planning and design expenses
incidental to a proposed bike trail / safety path to be constructed as a part of
the Kenai Spur Highway Widening Project (MP 0-10.6), Project Number F-
022-1(4).
DOVI'F has declined to use advance planning funds for these expenses, so it
appears that a legislative appropriation of General Funds Nvill be necessa,,y,
if the path is to be constructed as a part of the federally assisted project. Note
that this proposal was also recently endorsed by the Assembly of the Kenai
Peninsula Borough.
2) A request for $100,000 to be appropriated to the Department of
Environmental Conservation or the Department of Natural Resources,
Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation for a Kenai River Water Quality
Study to establish base line data relating to the characteristics of water in the
river. Apparently, this data is needed to establish whether or not various
water quality characteristics are changing in the river and to facilitate
review of various development and operations proposals related to the river.
I am enclosing some material which was submitted for the Council to review
regarding these proposals.
These endorsements represent just another "menu" of spending proposals which
appear to have local consensus. These endorsements do not replace the City's
overall legislative priorities which were submitted to you under a letter of
December 13, 1988.

BIKE PATH
Notes from conversation with Ed Mulcahy, project manager for D.O.T.
on Kenai Spur Highway widening project. 1-30-89 10:30 a.m.
The Federal Highway Agency participates only in road construction,
so we won't get any money from the feds for a bike path.
The 1989 legislative session is not the absolute deadline for
including design of the bike path in the overall project. Ed said
that in Anchorage paths have been added after a road project is
completed. However, an add -on is more expensive and cumbersome.
It's better to build a momentum for the path as the overall project
progresses through its various initial phases. The phase we're in
now is the reconnaissance phase, which precedes Environmental
Impact, r-o-w purchase, and maybe even other aspects that come
before the actual design.
Mr. M. said the price tag of $150,000 for design is just a ballpark
estimate, and a good price as bike paths go. He suggested that
$50,000 would be enough to have D.O.T. begin including the path in
its planning of the project. Call it earnest money, if you will.
He suggested that to make noise and raise a little money for the
bake path now is a good plan. since it would make the local public
come to expect it and pull for it.
It is possible for an independent designer to design the path as the
D.O.T. design squad designs the overall project, but Ed said that
would be awkward (unless the independent designers sat down with the
D.O.T. designers and used their information).
The overall project is problematic, according to Ed. Many utilities
would have to be re -located, storm drains must be installed, swamps
filled, right-of-way purchased, etc. He said the D.O.T. now has a
"small" amount of seed money to look at the possibility of widening
the Spur, and the bike path they "haven't even thought about ... yet."
The design of the overall project will take about 3 years to
complete.

Dear Ms. Farnsworth: Next Council Meeting — Attach copy of Dolly's
letter for Review by Co
I am in receipt of your letter concerning our plans for the
reconstruction of the Kenai Spur Road between Soldotna and
Kenai.
I understand your main concern regarding a pathway
connecting the communities of Soldotna and Kenai. I would
like to include the pathway in the preliminary plans on this
project, but as of today, there has been no _funding
appropriated for this phase of the work. It would be
misleading to draw prelimiinary plans for something that is
still in the "talking phase".
I think it would be prudent to wait for the funding to be
secured before we draw preliminary plans for this pathway.
Hopefully, this will be accomplished during the 1989
legislative session.
Your other concerns, namely the traffic signal and Marydale
Avenue, the storm sewers along the Spur Road in Soldotna and
the highway lighting for the entire project, are very valid,
and will' each be looked at in detail during the design phase
of this project.
Thank you for your interest in this project and the time you
spent in spelling out your concerns. I :ill keep you
informed on the progress of this project during the time I
will be involved_in it during the next year or two.

Re: Kenai Spur Road MP 0-10.6, Soldotna to Kenai
Project No. F-022-1(4)
Gentlemen:
Here are some review comments of the City of Soldotna on the scope of preliminary plans and
studies for the Kenai Spur Widening Project
We are pleased that you are proceeding with this project and hope that it may be completely 'bid
ready" by the 1991 construction season. Soldotna prefers Alternate 3, as presented at the Public
Meeting held this week in Kenai, which would provide for reconstruction and widening of the road
with a realignment at Pickle Hill to reduce curves and bring grades to standards.
As to the "bike path issue", you have estimated that design and construction of a bike trail/safety
path built as a part of the widening project would cost $1,425,000; you estimate that it would cost
$1,900,000 if built as a stand alone project. The savings that could be achieved by building the bike
trail/safety path as a part of the widening project justifies proceeding with preliminary
engineering for the pathway. Therefore, we petition you to include a bike trail/safety path from
Soldotna to Kenai in the scope of &U location, environmental and engineering studies to be
undertaken so that necessary right-of-way can be acquired and utilities relocated in time for a
bike trail/safety path to be constructed as a part of the widening project
We acknowledge that a bike traiVsafety path may not be eligible for federal funding, but tl.is
improvement is sincerely desired by our constituents. The bike path proposal has the Soldotna
Parks Advisory Committee, the Soldotna Chamber of Commerce and the Soldotna City Council as
advocates. We think the savings that could be achieved by building it as a part of the Spur
widening project justifies keeping this idea alive.
You have estimated that the design cost for a bike trail/safety path would be an additional $150,W0.
Please look around in your advance planning funds to find the money for these design expenses.
If the design was done by DOTlPF employees, you could handle these design expenses without an
increased appropriation. Perhaps, it could even be done as a volunteer project by a willing State
employee who thinks like we do.
We will seek an appropriation for any additional right-of-way and construction costs incidental
to the bike trail/safety path when the time is appropriate- We assume the right-of-way funding
would be needed in Fly 1991 and the funding for construction in FY 1992.
Maintenance costs for the path could be a<sumed by the Central Peninsula Road Maintenance
Senice Area since the facility would be located outside of the corporate Limits of Soldotna and
Kenai. The cities of Soldotna and Kenai alread-.1 assume most of the cost for cleaning sidewalks
and mowing the grass along the Spur Hignway because your maintenance personnel have given
these items such low pnonty
There are some other items that will need attention as you proceed with your preliminary
engneenng studies'
A traffic signal is needed at the intersection of Marydaie Avenue with the Spur Highway to
mitigate conflicts generated by the left turning traffic heading to and from Centrai
Peninsula Hospital, Soldotna High School, the Soldotna Post Office, and the Kenai
Peninsula Borough and School Di6tnCt Building.
The storm sewers along the Spur Highway in Soldotna are too small to handle drainage from
adjacent areas and the storm sewer outfalls need sedimentation and treatment facilities to
prevent pollutants from spilling iuto the Kenai River.
Highway lighting is needed along the rural section of the road from Soldotna to Kenai for the
safety of the traveling public as well as the safety of moose and caribou.
If you have questions or require additional information regarding any of the matters in this letter,
please just give me a call. 'Thanks for the chance to participate in your planning process.
Sincerely, /
Dolly)'. Farnsworth

Bear M1-s.,--31-0t
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
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
considered. DOT&PF has limited maintenance personnel and funding. Maintenance
of the bike path would be a low priority. 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 S150,000 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 !file
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 S150,000 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 S200,000 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.

Dear Murphy
Our Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors recently discussed and
approved supporting the concept of a bike safety path on the Spur Highway
between Solootna and Kenai in conjunction with the Spur road widening
protect. Even through construction will not be for sometime; preliminary
planning is currently taking place. The source of funding for the path with
no aoubt be a consideration; but at a later time - but we need the design
effort now.

If unauthorized actions are taken by a creditor against a debtor, the court may punish that creditor. A creditor who is con-
sidering taking actions against the debtor or the property of the debtor should review 11 U.S.C. 5 362 and may wish :0 seek

RE: Report on RDC Meeting 2/23/89
Attached is a report from Commissioner Thomson who attended the
reguiar Resource Development Council meeting (not the seminar) on
February 23, 1989.in Anchorage.
The report is being submitted at the request of Councilwoman Swarner
and in support of the budgeted expenditure for attendance at the
regular meetings.
Revort On 2esource Development Council
?� February 1989
Anchorage
Informal Discussions
J.K. -Alaska Oil & Gas
Richard Tyndel'. - Northwest Forest Service
John Henry - RDC Foundation
Don McGee - Alaska Development Corporation
Business:
Most Business was focussed on the RDC Conference which was
to start 24 February. Outstanding speakers had been
confirmed, and all RDC personnel were enthusiastic about the
program.
Other business involved President Bush's statement that the
White House would not veto any legislation concerning the
opening or ANWR. :senator Jan Faiks has introduced a "No more
Wilderness" bill to prevent ANWR lands being locked up by
being proposed as wilderness. She indicated that some 45% of
USA wilderness lands were in Alaska.
Program:
The program put on by ASMI personeel was a good example of
marketing expansion into new markets, and could be adapted
easily to market a variety of products, services or
localities.
Marketing Alaska Seafood Here and Abroad
Jeff Stephen - Vice Chairman
Mary Gore - Special Projects Co-ordinator
Alaska Seafoods Marketing Institute
ASMI is a public -private partnership between the State and
the seafood industry to promote Alaskan seafood sales in the
U.S., Japan and France. The present budget is funded by the
state ($1.7 Milliom) and through self -taxing of the seafood
industry ($2.7 Million).
The present thrust is mainly to sell frozen salmon, in the
face of fresh pen -reared stock from Norway, Scotland, New
Zealand and Canada. The main sales resistance is the
purchaser notion that "fresh is best", and the inconsistency
in size and quality of the wild stock.
The marketing strategies have been prioritised as follows:
1. Magazine advertisements, store displays and direct mail
promotions are used to publicise the existance of the product
in the eyes of the consumer. Norway presently spends over $7
million to promote pen -reared fresh stock sales. ASMI is
publishing that frozen salmon is Alaska's #1 export.
2. A multi -species local program to target specific species
to consumers, promoting a "Fresher Frozen" campaign to offset
European competitors "Fresh is Better" promotions.
3. To offset the price disadvantage of the Alaskan frozen
product, the notion of wild stock being unpolluted and living
in pristine ,raters is being promoted. Store posters and (in
the U."'.) radio advertisements in major population areas are
used.
4. Education of: consumers about the ease of cooking fish.
Recipes are available in stores and magazines, as well as
demonstrations ire promoted.
5. An agressive public relations effort is used in business
and local publications to bring constant media attention to
the Alaska seafood industry and to publicise the products.
6. An cngoing effort of education of fisherman and
processors in improving quality of the product by improving
handling techniques to prevent damage to the product before
processing.
7. Each individual species is being differentiated for the
consumer, so that rather than being attracted to one product
("Alaska fish";, the advertising base is broadened.
Mr Steuhen fielded several questions from the audience
after the presentation and produced examples of posters,
magazine advertisements and store promotion displays. He also
emphasised that pen -reared product was not an alternative to
be considered in Alaska.

Honorable Drue Pearce
Alaska State Senate
Box "i
Juneau, AK 99801
Dear Senator Pearce:
Thank you tar your letter of Feb. 17, 1989 expressing
support for recommendations of the State Economic Recovery
Committee.
You may recall that Governor Cowper has included in his
Capitai improvement Budget $1 Million for the City of Kenai
to help in the development of our seafood industrial park.
I am including for your information a brochure developed by
us in support of that project. You will note on page 3 the
items under project costs. The $1 Million will be used
specially for land acquisition, site preparation & road
construction, and water main & power.
We face a dilemma in that the Corps of Engineers has
indicated to us in no uncertain terms that they will not
allow another wetlands permit for fill purposes along the
waterfront. The result is that we must acquire upland lands
for any further development. Thus the inclusion of the
$310,000 for the adjoining 31 acres of uplands.
Your continued support for this project will be of
tremendous help in our long term planning for economic
development and self sufficiency within the City of Kenai.
Thank you very much for your time and interest.

It was nice to chat with you the other day. I hope
your visit to Juneau turned out to be successful. Thanks very
much, also, for your encouragement during the Senate Finance
Committee meeting. My own naivete has not yet been fully
eroded, and I approach each trip to Juneau with the strong
conviction that "right and reason will prevail." Then,
usually, about halfway through the visit I get the uneasy
feeling that I don't have the slightest idea what's going on
or why!
As I mentioned, John, CFAB does a fair amount of
business with processors in Kenai. We also have a good number
of individual borrower -members in Kenai and throughout the
Borough. I'm enclosing copies of three current brochures so
that you might have a file in your office in case there's ever
any inquiry. CFAB nearly self-destructed a few years ago. In
the process of gearing up for rehabilitation, which is now
pretty much accomplished, we've acquired a credit staff that
is highly regarded in Alaska financial circles. As a result,
we often find ourselves spending time and "consulting" on
proposals that potentially have nothing to do with CFAB.
We're happy to do that, and I hope you'll feel free to call
any time you think some objective input from us might be
useful.

Thanks for your recent letter regarding the bicentennial

and the speech were very moving.
The bicentennial is a very important milestone in
Kenai's history and I am sending information from the
Congressional Research Library on possible grants and
foundation support. I am also contacting Judi Bittner of
the Department of Natural Resources to see if they can
assist in your endeavors.
Lisa Sutherland of my staff informed me of her meeting
with Mrs. Carter on other issues. If she plans to be back
to discuss the Kenai Bicentennial, she should contact my
Scheduling Director, DeLynn Henry.
Thanks again for writing about your project.
With best wishes,

I want to thank you for your testimony before the House Finance
Committee* last week and for the recommendations that you offered
from the Conference of Mayors.
I feel as though you have taken a very responsible and realistic
position in suggesting alternative revenue sources to supplement
our existing ones. It does not take long for people to reach
similar conclusions after they evaluate the painful alternatives.
Although you received some discouragement from some of the members
of the Finance Committee, I want you to know that there are many
other members of the House that feel as you do; that it is
important to raise additional revenues so that we don't have to cut
services at both the state and local level in a way that signifi-
cantly and negatively affects our constituents.
Thanks again for taking the leadership in this area, and I look
forward to working with you and the other mayors of Alaska to
achieve these objectives.

TO: Kenai City Council
FROM: Charles A. Brown, Finance Director
DATE: March 14, 1989
SUBJECT: Jesse Wade, Dena'Ina Point
G-1, March 15, 1989 Agenda
In your packet is a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Wade requesting to retain
Tracts B-4 and B-5, and my letter to Mr. and Mrs. Wade dated February
17, 1989. I make the following comments.
1) The letter from Mr. and Mrs. Wade is not signed. I am always
skeptical of unsigned documents.
2) Council authorized, and I specifically said in my letter, that the
Wades would have to pay amounts necessary to obtain any of the lots.
This is what is allowed by the deed of trust; it calls for "principal
reductions" and "payments".
Mr. and Mrs. Wade have proposed to select Tracts B-4 and B-5, cancel
all the existing notes, and take out a new note for the difference of
the reconveyance amounts listed in the deed of trust and the
installment principal payments. This would be:
Amount to reconvey 3-4 $ 54,332.81
Amount to reconvey B-5 56,467.92
Subtotal 110,800.73
Installment Principal Payments
on all "B" Tracts (32,634.94)*
Difference (new note) $ 78,165.79
I believe the Council has been more than fair (perhaps generous) in
allowing Mr. and Mrs. Wade to rescind the contracts, while allowing
them to obtain title to some of the land through the partial
reconveyance provision.
However, this latest request is unacceptable to me. It is not at all
what they originally requested (see attached 1-27-89 letter). I
request the Council to reject their offer.

* This amount is $1,177.74 greater than appears in my 2-17-89 letter;
a payment was received on 3-8-89.

Attn: Bill Brighton
City Manager
Subject: Sec. 36 Dianna Estates
Dear Sir:
I have decided to submit a request to the City of Kenai, in asking for concurrence
to utilize the proportional release concept in applying equity of principle payment
for property title.
I have also found it necessary to seek release from purchase contracts covered on
Escrow Contract PK 1088-M1, Quit Claim Deed, Deed of Trust (3), Deed of Trust Notes
(3), and collection agreement contract. The reason for these request is due to the
down turn economy and economic hardship circumstances that make it unfeasible to
continue the contracts.
The purchase contract was entered into June 1985. Since then I have paid into the
composit contract package $296,519.67. This has rendered a principle reduction of
$120,932.73.
I submit this for consideration at the-earlist next meeting for most expedient
possible relief and proportional releases. I would be happy to consider almost
any mutual precieved benefit results.
I have enclosed copies of referenced documents and payment records for your review.
Respectfully yours
Jesse S. Wade

and B-5, apply the principle reduction amount referenced in your letter
and request term pay out on the balance under the cities standard note
payment plan.
We presume this will comply satisfactory with your stated outline and be
acted upon at the earliest convenience.

Re: Tracts B-1 through B-8, C-2, C-5, Dena'ina Point Estates
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Wade:
The Kenai City Council, at the February 15, 1989 meeting and
pursuant to your January 27 letter, directed the Administration
to prepare the paperwork to allow a mutual rescission to the
referenced three contracts, and allow you to obtain a partial
reconveyance on one (or possibly more) of Tracts B-1 through B-8.
Only the installment principal payments (not the down payment)
that have been made on B-1 through B-8 will be applied toward the
partial reconveyance. That amount is $31,457.20. You may obtain
one or more lots by paying the difference between the
reconveyance amount or amounts in the Deed of Trust and such
principal payments that you have made, plus accrued interest.
Please inform the City, in writing, your desire to accomplish
this and which, if any, Tracts B-1 through B-8, you desire to
have reconveyed.
Sincerely,
Charles A. Brown
Finance Director

Fib Kathy Scott, ALASI A TOURISM MARKETING COUNCIL (ATMC)
SUBJECT: ATMC FEBRUARY MEETING F
ATMC rnet in a two day session February 8 and a in Juneau. Full council
session ;^gas preceeded by a day of meetings for the Advertising,
Collateral, Fall - ^linter -Spring and Research Committees. As in most
organizations, the actual detail work is done in committee. Our goal is to
shorten our time commitment for Council sessions to one day as soon as
practical.
The highlignt of I=eur.iary s meeting ',eras a presentation by Governor
Cowper wrio addressed the Council on the need for this private
iniustra-governrnent Council to move ahead in super motion cooperatively.
he suggested areas the Council should address and charged the members to
conesi, ely for we nsverment of tourism development in Alaska. His
rern rKs w8r"e weili tar,k:en and wiH continue to guide the purpose of the
C 3uns I.
Hera s a oriel SUPIn1drij Of conwrittee reports and council responding_
action
Collateral: This groups primary tasi< is to produce the Alaska placation
Planner used to forefill thousands of requests for information about
Alaska vacations - also to convert those individuals from "probable"
Alaska travelers to "definate, got to go to Alaska right noye travelers."
T "
T Ile focus group studies of consiimars and travel agents validated n jny of
our suspicions, that the "planner" needed some major changes.
Recommendations included 1) organizing material in regional format
including a Highway section 2) including a map .3) considering an entirely
different approach for travel agents who have no time to read the
publication and frequently ci-jnfu! e it with a brochure because it is "too"
pretty 4) better" focus on attractions, locations of parks and recreation
sites Bi a tablIshi-nent of y table of contents and cross index by activity
6) inserting calendars of events in regional format. Bradley Advertising
(the state's contractor) conducted the studies and prepared the analysis
whiLA'r also showed there is considerable misconception about costs
related to Alaska travel. Major changes will occur with the publication of
this year's planner, Such commitments to change represent a major
undertaking well underway in just four month; of the new ATMC's
organization.
Ad�er"jsinnj ,.r_mmittee- Results of the advertising strategy study
conncted on .1 _ second T''V ads showed that executional elements of the
commercial re_Arlted in excellent recall but the primary objective (to
overcorne the cold or inclimate weather objection) did not work. The
sceneru is so over powering - that the primary abject of demonstrating
"ple,a ant ''„leather" is not recalled by viewers. The committee recommends
a on YYort::iro str3te0es through additional marking analysis dealing
;rrtt acces_,it!ilit�a, "the last frontier image", scenery, value/expense and
actl'vltle . Our April Council rneetinq will include a committee report and
rrcornmendationc regarding advertising strategies.
Fall -Winter -Spring Committee- This committee, through a by-laws
amendment, will most likely be revised to just "winter." Most visitors do
neat ' 1e``+ tall and sprinq with •,•inter, but %lgith the summer visitinq season.

SUBJECT: Pizza Hut/Dan Roberts
H-7 of March 15, 1989 Agenda
Dan Roberts is requesting to purchase Lots 3A and 3B, Baron Park
Subd., Lot 3 Addn. He is requesting that the City accept a note that
would be in second position to an existing bank loan.
The City Code provides for this if adequate security exists. The
numbers, based upon information given to me, work out as follows:
Fair market value of Lot 3A $ 92,800
Fair market value of Lot 3B 63,800
Fair market value of Building 211,000
367,600
Bank Mortgage (estimate) (95,000)
Excess Security Available $ 272,600
City note [($92,800 + $63,800) X .85] $ 133,110
Therefore, it appears the City could accept a second (refer to any
Attorney opinion).
Based upon recent experiences, I advise the Council to accept a second
position note under absolutely no circumstances.

MEMORANDUM
TO: William J. Brighton, City Manager
FROM: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director
DATE: March 7, 1989
SUBJECT: City Boating Facility
FOR: Council Meeting of March 15, 1989
The following is a list of items that are badly needed for this
summers operation at the Kenai City Dock. I propose that the
following items be taken out of the project funds left over from
the construction of the Kenai Boating Facility. These items have
been discussed with the Kenai Harbor Commission and have received
their approval.
1. Four Mooring Buoys. The City of Kenai has applied for and
received the Corps of Engineers Permit for placing four mooring
buoys next to the Kenai -City Dock. These buoys would be used to
anchor boats that are waiting to unload their fish or to receive
fuel from our dock. At this time we are thinking of letting each
one of the dock lessees use one of the mooring buoys with the City
of Kenai using the other two for the boats waiting for the City's
unloading station or fueling facilities. Each one of the four
buoys would consist of a 1000 lb. dankworth anchor, a swivel.
shackle, about 22.5' of chain, another swivel shackle, a rope
thimble, 40' of 1" rope, another rope thimble, another swivel.
shackle, a 58" steel buoy, another swivel shackle with another rope
thimble and 20' of 1" rope, another rope thimble and a small vinyl
buoy. We want these mooring buoys to be first rate since we will
have many different boats tied to them. At this time we are
considering a purchase from Marine and Contractor's Supply,
Washington Chain and Supply or Silvertip.
2. Boat w/Motor. This piece of equipment is needed to move our
floats around, hold them in place for installation, repair and
maintenance under the dock, installation of ladders, hoses, pile
hoops, working on electrical wires and lights under the dock plus
various other requirements of work that take place below the dock
surface. Safety is another reason that this boat is needed. If
Page 2
somebody was to fall in the water they could very quickly be
carried quite a distance from the dock because of the fast flowing
water that often occurs near this area. The boat that we are
looking at is a heavy duty aluminum work boat built by Cooper Sea
Skiffs. It would be powered by a Johnson 35 HP motor from River
and Sea Marine.
3. Float Extension. This would be for two 5' x 20' Nordic Floats
with 14" cleats. In the Council packet is a purchase order to
Nordic Marine to furnish these floats. The floats would be to
extend our existing floats on the river side of the dock to provide
additional area for fueling. These new sections would be identical
to our existing one that we would be conneting too. At the present
time the fueling system is being congested by many boats waiting
for their boats to be fueled. The additional floats would allow
another row of boats to be rafted against the floating docks.
4. Increasing the Fuel System. One of the biggest needs at the
Kenai Dock is to increase our fueling system. At the present time
we have an excellent fueling system however it is very slow. We
are working with Peninsula Plumbing and Heating, AirTek Electrical
and Northwest Pump and Equipment Supplies to improve our fueling
system. We hope to improve our gas system by increasing the flow
with larger size filters and changing to a higher volume automatic
nozzle. We hope to improve our diesel fueling system by also
increasing the size of the filters and going to a higher volume
automatic nozzle plus increasing the size of the submersible pump
from 2 HP to 5 HP. We are also looking at adding a new high volume
dispenser which would give us another hose for fueling. This would
include a 100' hose and reel that would reach further down our
floats which we are presently planning on extending by another 401.
Increasing our fueling system should be one of our highest
priorities. Besides providing a very badly needed service, this
function provides a great deal of income for our boating facility.
5. Potable Water in the Dock. This is another item that is badly
needed. Our present water supply on the dock is not drinkable and
needs to be treated. The water in the restrooms has been
tremendously improved with a water system by De Best. The purchase
order that is being presented to Council is for another small water
treatment system that will :be located in our storage shack on the
dock and will provide potable water to the boats along the dock
surface. A good portion of the boats that work off of our City
dock have been requesting drinkable water for supply to their
boats. In the past we have! not been able to supply this service
but we wish to in the future.
Page 3
This is a list of the major expenditures that we would like to see
completed as soon as possible so that our operations this summer
will run smoothly. There has been some discussion concerning the
use of the City dock for the month of April for herring and the
month of May for halibut. We would like Council approval for
purchasing the above material equipment and labor so that these
items can be ordered. Many of the items listed above have a
rather long delivery date. The floats have to be built in Seattle
and shipped to Kenai. Much of the equipment for the fueling system
may have an eight week delivery date. The work boat that we hope
to obtain is going to be built to our specifications and
requirements. It is for these reasons that I am requesting
Council's approval to proceed with the above items.

Honorable Mayor Councilmembers & City Manager
Although we are some 6000 miles away apart of us remained
With you on Kenai. One does not leave a place he has lived
in for 10 years completely. We are there in spirit.
we subscribe to the Clarion to keep in touch and have been
reading of the problems you are having with asbestos at the
Airport Terminal. When I read the first article two or three
weeks ago regarding the floor tiles, immediately called
Reith. I explained that we had no way of telling what was
under the carpeting. We had no reason to suspect asbestos -
after all we had totally gutted $000 s.f. of the north end of
the terminal 5 or 6 years prior and had no problem with
Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM).
One of the last projects I did while in Kenai was a
renovation to the Birchwood Elementary School in Anchorage.
Currently, one of my responsibilities as Manager, Facilities
Planning for Palm Beach County is the renovation of the Palm
Beach County Courthouse. A building which has every type of
asbestos imaginable in a building. In both projects, as in
any confrontation with ACM's the rule is, "If the components
containing asbestos are not disturbed, they need not be
abated." Hence, components such as floor tiles which are to
be covered, can be covered; pipes with asbestos insulation
which are not being removed need not be subject to asbestos
abatement. The Birchwood School has cement asbestos panels
lining the interior corridor walls. We abated only those
panels we disturbed.
Page 2
No one is more familiar with your dislike of change orders
than I and the feeling that we are at the mercy of the
contractors. But besides the fact that the specification I
produced for you limit that which a contractor can charge you
for overhead and profit, and requires sufficient back-up to
prevent overcharges, in the case of asbestos abatement,
finding asbestos after the fact is less costly than if you
had retained a consultant to do an asbestos investigation,
which lead to contract documents. Let me give you an
example; We (Palm beach County) recently bid the abatement of
some of the asbestos in the Courthouse. This, was sprayed -on
fire proofing on the ceilings of the stair halls. People
were scratching their names, inscribing graffitti etc in it
with their fingernails, Hence abatement was necessary. The
low bidder's price is $73,000 for the abatement of asbestos
on ceilings in four stair halls. The design fee to produce
contract documents for bidding as $25,000.00. This does not
include contract administration (inspection services) which
are $45,000 for on site representation during the abatement
process.
So by suspecting the asbestos during construction, sampling &
testing and having a specialty contractor remove it actually
costs less than if you had decided to have an investigation
of the building done prior to renovation.
I hope this information eases the pain of the $48,000 change
order.
In closing let me reiterate; 1) we had no reason to suspect
asbestos inside the building; under the carpet or elsewhere.
2) any asbestos containing material which is not disturbed
need not be abated.
Please feel free to contact me at anytime you have a
questions regarding any of the work I have performed for you.
With fondest personal regards I remain,
Sincerely,
Carmen V. Gintoli

RE: Justifications for State Aid to Municipalities and for Fairness in
Balancing the State Budget
For your information and use, I have enclosed a copy of a presentation I made
today to the House Finance Committee Fiscal Policy Subcommittee. It presents
some philosphical and statistical analysis regarding state aid to municipalities.
In summary, municipal programs have been cut disproportionately, cuts to
municipal programs shift the burden to the local government and taxpayer, and
the health of the State is dependent on the health of its political subdivisions.
These points, and the data in the attached tables, should prove helpful as you
discuss the current budget situation with your legislators and during the budget
workshops scheduled for various locations in the State. If you have any
questions about the information in this presentation, feel free to call either me
or Chrystal Smith at the League office, 586-1325.

Justifications for State Aid to Municipalities
and
for Fairness in Balancing the FY 90 and Future State Budgets
A Healthy State Depends on Healthy Municipalities - A healthy state
depends on healthy municipalities where Alaskans live, work, and play.
Constitutional Mandate - Local government is protected by the Alaska
Constitution. Article X provides for maximum local self-government.
Local Service Delivery - State services and programs are delivered to
Alaskans at the local level. State aid to municipalities is not expendable
because of tough financial times, especially in a state as large, remote, and
diverse as Alaska.
Revenue Redistribution - Oil resources and the revenues derived from them
belong to all the people of Alaska. The revenues are collected by the State
and must be redistributed back to Alaskans where the services are provided,
which is mainly in municipalities. In state spending -reduction and revenue -
raising discussions, the implication seems to be that state revenues should
somehow be reserved to run state government; that state government exists
for some reason other than to provide services to the people of the State;
that the State has no responsibility to municipalities, which serve the same
people; and, that the municipalities should raise their own revenues from
other sources.
Essential Services - State aid to municipalities provides services to Alaskans.
State funds are used by local governments to provide essential services such
as fire, police, roads, water, sewer, health, telephone, garbage collection,
schools, airports, docks and harbors, transit, planning, libraries, recreation,
laundry facilities, and administration. Which of these should be cut to
compensate for the loss of state dollars?

Justification for Fairness
February 27, 1989
Page 2
State Cuts Increase Taxes - Cutting funds to local government to balance
the state budget in lieu of raising revenues is politically convenient for state
officials, but it merely shifts the burden to local officials to again raise taxes
or reduce services. The citizen pays either way. Scott Goldsmith's study for
the Office of Management and Budget on the impacts of state budget cuts
(Working Paper 89.1) found that a 15 percent cut in state spending (an
average of $651 per capita) would reduce support to local governments an
average of $215 per capita, with per capita decreases in support to local
governments in 10 election districts of over $250. Any such decrease in
state funding will have to be made up at the local level.
A logical guideline for cutting the budget to avoid raising taxes would be to
not approve any cuts that would result in local tax increases to provide
services.
Municipal Programs Already Cut Disproportionately - The State has cut
municipal aid programs significantly, in some cases by over 30 percent, in
the last four years. Cuts in municipal aid have been disproportionate to cuts
in other portions of the budget. During the same period, the overall state
operating budget has declined less than 7 percent (See Exhibit 1) and
agency operating budgets have been cut only 9 percent (House Research
Report 88-171). At this point, making equal cuts in state agency and formula
program budgets from the Governor's proposed FY 90 budget, as is being
suggested, will impact municipal programs and local taxpayers more severely
because of the large cuts local governments have already suffered in the last
four years.
Municipal Programs Small Portion of State Budget - Formula programs,
which make up approximately 43 percent of the state operating budget, are
incorrectly equated solely with aid to local governments. Municipal
assistance and revenue sharing together represent only 4.5 percent of the
total state budget. Funds for education, a constitutionally -mandated state
responsibility, make up 21.3 percent of the total budget. See Exhibit #2.
State general fund expenditures for formula funded and entitlement programs
as a percentage of operating expenditures have remained relatively constant
since statehood, varying between 42 and 48 percent (House Research
Report 88.171).
Justification for Fairness
February 27, 1989
Page 3
Local Governments Paying More For Education - Even though education
is a state responsibility according to the Alaska Constitution, the State has
reduced state funding for education by 14 percent over the last four years.
In addition, municipalities are now statutorily required to contribute an
increasing amount of local funds to education: local contributions are
currently 26 percent of the total federal, state, and local education operating
funds. As an added burden, municipalities have been required to make up
the shortfalls in state education funding (debt reimbursement, foundation, and
pupil transportation) of over $75 million in the last four years. See Exhibits
1, 3, and 4.
Municipalities Pay For Underfunded Entitlements - The State has not met
its funding obligations to municipal entitlement programs. Underfunding of
state entitlement programs for municipalities has cost local governments over
$121 million over four years. See Exhibit 4.
Double Burden from Certain Shortfalls - The underfunding of certain state -
mandated programs (e.g., the senior citizens property tax exemption
program) causes a double burden on municipalities. The State restricts the
municipalities' ability to raise revenues to provide local -priority programs,
while at the same time requiring local governments to raise taxes to meet
state funding shortfalls. Municipalities currently pay for over 62 percent of the
state -mandated senior citizens tax exemption program.
Municipalities Save State Money - Reductions in state assistance to local
governments and the increasing disincentives of mandated but unfunded
responsibilities may well force municipalities to disincorporate and discourage
new incorporations, thus increasing the State's costs of providing services to
citizens in those areas.
Shared Taxes Not State Funds - Shared taxes, which are included in the
formula programs as pass-throughs, should not be viewed as state funds.
The taxes on fish, utilities, liquor, aviation, and amusements are intended to
compensate for the costs of regulation and the impacts of those activities on
local communities. The taxes are collected by the State for efficiency, but are
shared with the municipalities that regulate and are affected by the activities.
Municipal Cuts Politically Expedient - State aid to local governments in
areas such as municipal assistance, revenue sharing, senior citizens property
tax exemption reimbursement, school debt reimbursement, and pupil
Justification for Fairness
February 27, 1989
Page 4
transportation is vulnerable in the budget -balancing debate not because of
the relative value of these programs to Alaska's citizens, but because
constitutional amendments or statutory changes are not necessary to reduce
funding for these programs. The vulnerability of these programs is increased
when they are grouped with other formula programs for proportionate cuts..
Good public policy and fairness should prevail over political expediency in
considering these programs during the budget process.
State and Local Responsibilities Unclear - Oil wealth has resulted in
irrational growth in the state budget to a level that is unsustainable with
current revenues. During this period, the distinctions between needs and
wants, and among state, local, and individual responsibilities, have become
blurred. Cuts in the absence of a clarification of these relationships will be
unfair, unproductive, and potentially damaging to the State.
State Mandates Have Increased Local Costs - The State has shifted
additional responsibilities to municipalities without compensation, and, at the
same time, it has reduced state aid to local governments. This was done in
the absence of a clear division of state and local responsibilities. In addition,
the Legislature has instituted new programs in the absence of legislation
requiring fiscal notes on local impacts and in the absence of legislation
preventing additional state mandates without reimbursements for costs to
local governments of implementing them.
Municipal Assistance Not Overfunded - Legislators point to municipal
assistance saying that FY 89 funding ($56 million) was in excess of the
funding floor (i.e. 30 percent or greater of the prior year's corporate income
tax - or $54 million at a minimum in FY 89). Although funding for the
program did grow in wealthier times along with the overall state budget, the
State did not fund the municipal assistance program at the 30 percent floor
as recently as FY 84 and FY 85, when funding fell short of that minimum level
by over $9 million and $10 million, respectively.
Equity - Taxpayers in municipalities pay for services locally that are provided
by the State at no local cost to residents of the unincorporated areas. Also,
taxpayers in municipalities bear responsibilities imposed by the State that are
not required by the State of residents in the unincorporated areas. This
raises serious questions of equity.

1 All amounts except for Foundation Funding are General Fund appropriation levels. Foundation Funding is actual amount for FY 86 -
FY 88 and includes approximately $20 million in federal funds each year.
2 Beginning in FY 88, the Foundation Formula required school districts to pick up the State's match of Teachers' Retirement System
(TRS) contributions from the amount the district received for Foundation funding. This TRS match had formerly been a separate budget
line item and grant to school districts. The new Foundation Formula was based on an estimate of an annual TRS match of $25 million.
Since this amount now has to be picked up by school districts, this table has included both the actual Foundation grants and these
amounts minus $25 million to show the impact of reduced funding on Alaska's school districts.
3 The 30.6 percent decrease in state funding for this state -mandated program has come at the same time as the value of property
eligible for this tax exemption has increased nearly 50 percent (the entitlement was $4,977,451 in FY 86 and $7,430,000 in FY 88).
During these four years alone, municipalities have been forced to pick up $13,302,708 In property tax exemptions mandated but not
paid for by the State.
4 Although funding for school construction debt reimbursement has increased slightly during this period, municipalities' entitlement to
reimbursement has increased at a much higher rate, thus imposing an additional burden on local governments. Entitlement has
exceeded appropriations to the program by $29,360,746 from FY 86 through FY 88. Municipalities have had to make up this shortfall
by cutting other municipal programs.
5 Decrease in assistance to municipalities, taking into the account the additional responsibility for TRS match they were required to
absorb by the 1987 revision of the Foundation Formula (see Footnote 2). During this period the cost to municipalities because of
underfunding of the Foundation Formula and the transfer of responsibility for TRS funding from the State to school districts was
$92,600.800.

AML Priority Legislation
State Aid to Municipalities Funding Package
HB 16 - Appropriations to the Department of
Education for K-12 support and school construction
for FY 90. The Health & Social Services Committee
unanimously passed a committee substitute, CS HB
16 (HESS), on 2/23. The CS made changes in the
title to narrow the focus of the bill exclusively to K-
12 support and school construction debt retirement.
In addition, funding for the Foundation Formula was
increased by $27,897,245 and for the Schools for the
Handicapped by $328,900. A $3,116,707 reduction
was made in the appropriation for the School
Construction Account, leaving that amount just short
of $112.5 million. Referred to Finance. AML
Position: Support (Municipal Platform) as long as
the Foundation Formula is fully funded and the
appropriation for school debt reimbursement remains
at $109 million or above.
Removal of Municipal Liability Imposed by Busby
Decision
SB 66 - Removal of Busby liability. Pulled from the
Senate floor on 224 and brought back to the Rules
Committee by the sponsor, SB 66 was replaced by a
substitute, CS SB 66 (Rules), which removed
Subsection 2 granting conditional immunity to the
rr..unicipalities and the State for damages to
individuals while they are in protective custody. The
Senate passed CS SB (Rules) on Wednesday, 3/1, on
a vote of 14-5 (Duncan, Fahrenkamp, Pourchot,
Rodey, and Szymanski dissenting, presumably along
Legislative Bulletin # 16-8
party lines in support of the Governor; Kerttula
excused). Senator Rodey had offered an amendment
to add "gross negligence or" to the liability standard
of "intentional misconduct." Senators Rodey and
Szymanski spoke in favor of the amendment, but it
failed 7-12 (Duncan, Fahrenkamp, Kelly, Pourchot,
Rodey, Szymanski, and Zharoff voting Yea). SB 66
moves to the House, where it is scheduled for a
hearing (in conjunction with HB 116) on Tuesday,
March 7, in the Labor and Commerce Committee,
pending referral. AML Position: Support
(Municipal Platform).
HB 116 - Removal of Busby liability. HB 116 was
heard in the House Labor and Commerce
Committee on both Tuesday and Thursday and will
have another hearing on Tuesday, March 7 (along
with SB 66 if it is referred to the committee).
It is obvious from the hearings in the Labor and
Commerce Committee that the committee is
unsympathetic to the AML position of requesting
complete immunity. The Chair, Representative
Donley, has submitted a CS that calls for a standard
of gross negligence for the municipality and the
State for the decision to pick up or not pick up, to
release or not release, and for actions taken while a
person is in protective custody, but a standard of
intentional misconduct for the individual police
officer or emergency patrolman for the decision to
pick up or not pick up! Representative Gruenberg,
meanwhile, has proposed a CS that would
incorporate the "gross negligence" language defeated
on the floor of the Senate for SB 66.
The Senate bill, CS SB 66 (Rules), will be the
vehicle for final legislation and will end up in House
Judiciary, where any immunity may be hard to get.
The Trial Lawyers Association is supporting simple
MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL LEAGUE OF CITIES AND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES
negligence, but consider the source! In any case,
that is the implied standard without a bill.
Municipalities and the State need some resolution to
the Busby situation and want and need a bill.
Revision of Municipal Election Code
SB 173 - Municipal elections and petitions;
replacing recalled officials. SB 173, an AML
priority bill, was heard by the Senate C&RA
Committee on 3/2 and passed out. Two amendments
proposed by the Division of Elections were adopted:
one would clarify that to vote in a municipal election
a person must be eligible to vote in a state election
under AS 15.05.01.0, and the other would allow
municipalities to require voters whose registration
had been cancelled under the provisions of 15.07.130
(Elimination of Excess Names) to reregister to vote
in municipal elections. Referred to State Affairs and
Finance. AML Position: Support (Municipal
Platform).
Exemption from Taxation of In -Place Resources
SB 181 - Exemption from taxation of in -place
resources. SB 181, an AML priority bill, was heard
by the Senate C&RA Committee on 32 and was
passed out. Two minor amendments were made:
one changed the sunset date for the bill to July 1,
1991, and the other was to indicate that the study of
the issue could include options other than those
specifically named in the bill. Referred to Resources
and Finance. AML Position: Support (Res. 89-21
and recent Board identification as a priority issue).
New BO Intmduced
In the House
HB 143 - Regulation of aboveground and
underground petroleum and chemical storage tanks.
Introduced 2/3 by Rules at the request of the
Governor, HB 143 calls for the regulation of both
aboveground and underground storage tanks used to
Page 2
store both petroleum and chemical products. Under
the provisions of the bill the State may delegate
regulation to a municipality if the municipal
requirements are at least as strict as state regulations
under AS 46.03.410 -.450. Exemptions are provided
for farm and residential (single family or duplex)
tanks with a capacity of 1,100 gallons or less and for
tanks of 1,100 gallons or less used solely for storage
of heating oil for use on the premises. Referred to
Labor and Commerce, Resources, and Finance.
AML Position: No position.
In the Senate
SJR 28 - Relating to oil and gas development within
ANWR. Introduced 2/15 by Uehling, Kelly, halford,
et.al. (11 sponsors), SJR 28 urges Congress to open
the Arctic Coastal Plain of ANWR to
"environmentally responsible" development. The
Finance Committee heard this bill on 3/1 and
unanimously recommended its passage. The
resolution was referred to Rules. AML Position:
Support (89 PS IX.F.1).
SB 187 - Withholding state education funds.
Introduced 2/24 by Zharoff, SB 187 would require
the Commissioner of the Department of Education
to withhold a school district's foundation funds if the
district or a teacher in the district failed to comply
with AS Title 14 (Education) or regulations
promulgated by the Department. Further, if the
State Commission on Human Rights determined
some discrimination on the basis of race, sex, or
national origin, the Commissioner would be required
to withhold at least 25 percent of a school district's
foundation funds. Referred to HESS and Finance.
AML Position: No position.
SB 188 - Increasing the motor fuel tax. Introduced
224 by Rules at the request of the Governor, SB
188 would double the motor fuel tax from eight
cents per gallon to 16 cents per gallon. The tax on
aviation fuel and fuel for watercraft would stay at
the current levels, and the six cent rebate for users
of fuel for non -highway purposes would be
unchanged According to the Governor's letter of
transmittal, the passage of the bill would move
Alaska from having the second -lowest tax rate on
motor fuel, 49th, to 25th. He also added, "It is my
intent that the increased revenue from this change
AML Legislative Bulletin #16-78
March 3, 1989
should be used to pay for highway maintenance."
Referred to Transportation and Finance. AML
Position: No position.
SB 189 - Examination of intoxicated persons in
protective custody. Introduced 224 by Rules at the
request of the Governor, SB 189 would change
present law (AS 47.37.170) requiring a physician to
examine intoxicated or incapacitated persons taken
into protective custody to allow 'other qualified
health practitioner[s]" to conduct the exam. In
addition, the Department of Health & Social Services
would be permitted to determine the extent of the
exams required and the qualifications of the
practitioners who administer them. Although a
physician's certificate would still be required for an
intoxicated or incapacitated person to be committed
for emergency treatment, AS 47.37.180 would be
amended for consistency with the above to read
"physician or other qualified health practitioner," but
would require the certifying physician to review the
results of the exam before signing the certificate.
Referred to HESS. AML Position: No position.
SB 195 - Relating to Fnfish farming and aquatic
farm and hatchery permits. Introduced 227 by
Resources, SB 195 would allow finfish farming in
Alaska beginning July 1, 1990. Finfish mariculture
would be subject to the same laws regarding the
acquisition of stock as hatcheries and would join
shellfish and aquatic plant farming in existing
statutes. Regulation of the conditions, standards, site
selection, expiration date, etc., of the permit would
be at the discretion of the Commissioner of the
Department of Fish & Game. Referred to
Resources & Finance. AML Position: Support
(89 PS DCD.6).
House Action
HB 87 - Requiring a long-term financial plan. State
Affairs Committee offered a substitute, CS HB 87
(SA), on 227. The CS reduces the time span of the
financial plan for estimated expenditures from five
to four years and for projections of revenue from 20

Municipal News
How Did We Get By Without It?
Recently, many AML members, the Board of
Directors, and the Legislative Committee have
received urgent documents and notices from AML
on their FAX machines. During the legislative
session, when response from municipalities is often
needed immediately, the telefax has proved to be a

real timesaver compared to first class mail,
particularly to our rural members whose mail may be
delayed by poor weather conditions. The FAX
machine has been a giant step forward in
communication with and among our members. We
have even used it during teleconferences to transmit
written documents for consideration.
The 1989 Municipal Officials Directory lists FAX
numbers for the communities that indicated they had
a machine. In addition, we have received FAX

numbers for several other municipalities since the
publication of the directory. Listed below are those
communities for which we have FAX numbers. If
your community has a FAX machine, and your city
or borough is not listed, please contact an AML staff
member at 586-1325 and let us know so that we will
have a quick and reliable way to contact you with
timely information and requests.

"Drug -Free Workplace Act" Regulations Published
Federal regulations to implement the 'Drug -Free
Workplace Act," which was part of the Omnibus
Drug bill signed into law late in the 100th Congress,
were published in the January 11, 1989 Federal
Register (pp. 49464969).
The 'Drug -Free Workplace Act" requires cities and
towns that receive block grants or entitlement grants
— i.e., direct recipients of federal funds - to be
certified as "drug free" or face the loss of federal
monies.
In order to qualify for drug -free workplace
certification requirements, cities and towns as
grantees must:
o publish and distribute to workers a policy
prohibiting illegal drugs in the workplace;
o provide each employee to be engaged in the
performance of the grant a copy of the above -
mentioned statement;
AML Legislative Bulletin #16-78
March 3, 1989
establish "drug -free awareness programs" to
inform workers about the danger of drugs,
penalties for using them at work, and
available drug counseling programs;
require workers to notify their employer if
they are convicted of any workplace drug
crime; and
o punish convicted employees or require their
participation in a drug rehabilitation
program
The National League of Cities has requested some
clarifications of the proposed regulations and has
asked for input from others. Local government
officials are encouraged to review the regulations and
to submit written comments no later than April 3,
1989. If you do not have access to the Federal
Register, AML can provide you with a copy of the
proposed regulations. Comments should be sent to
Docket Clerk, Docket number 46084, Department of
Transportation, 400 7th Street, SW, Room 4107,
Washington, D.C. 20590. Please forward a copy of
your comments to Janet Quist, Office of Federal
Relations, National League of Cities, 1301

A1Pf�/J.ltl News:
Why Should Municipalities Prefer a
Pooled Risk Management Program?
With conventional insurance, the control of your
insurance dollars rests with the insurance company.
The company calls the tune! Under the AMIJJIA
Pooled Risk Management Program, our participants
call the tune! The key word is control, and the key
question is "Who has it?"
Your JIA program will stabilize your coverages and
costs. We smooth out those insurance pricing cycles
that are disastrous to the municipal budgeting
process. JIA also provides loss prevention programs
and claims services tailored to our members' needs
rather than to those of an insurance company. The
JIA program promotes participant management
rather than insurance company management
Participant representatives are members of the
AML/JIA Board of Trustees. This participant
management responds directly to municipality
requirements, and sets policy for the various
programs that are offered in addition to basic
insurance needs!

COMMUNITY FO-
CUS ON GAMING
PERMITS
Soldotna Chamber of
Commerce along with
Little League, Senior Citi-
zens, the Hockey Associ-
ation , Elks Club, Lions
Club and many others de-
pend on gaming permits
(formally known as Per-
mits for Authorized
Games of Chance and
Skill). Community organi-
zations have relied for
many years on income
from bingo, pull -tabs, raf-
fles and drawings to meet
the financial demands of
their programs. Activities
may occur as freguently
as weekly and others just
occassionally. Some are
conducted with the assis-
tance of paid staff; others
totally by volunteers.
Considerable attention
has been given the "new
age business", Pull -Tabs
City, a Peninsula Center
Mall store front where
"rippies" sell from 1 Oam to
9pm six days a week and
noon to 5pm on Sunday.
Operators differ from per-
mit holders in that they
are contracted to oper-
ate the permit activity
and must guarantee
payment of 15% adjust-
ed gross income from
sales to the permittee.
Permittees freguently
"operate" their own ac-
tivities keeping the ad-
justed gross income af-
ter expenses for their
organization's program
use.
The visitor center,
community calendar, as-
sistances for conven-
tions and meetings, is-
sues and answers
forums, merchants pro-
motions and this news-
letter are all elements of
the Chamber program.
Building ballfields and
youth hockey tourna-
ments are Little League
and Hockey Association
programs.
Several key factors, be-
sides the appearance of
a pull -tab operator on the
Peninsula effect our le-
galized gaming laws.
Since the enactment of
new regulations and the
publicity surrounding li-
censing of "operators"
the popoularity among
non-profit organizations
for these permits has in-
creased dramatically, so
has the competition. Per-
mits are now granted with-
in three years of an organ,
ization forming -before the
law required five years.
Profit margins have been
greatly reduced with in-
creased cost of reporting,
a new three percent tax
on pull -tabs net gain and
a restriction on who may
wholesale pull -tab sup-
plies. No additional re-
strictions to qualify permit
holders have been esta-
blished, i.e. federal tax
exempt status. The City
of Soldotna offers Ordi-
nance 478 prohibiting
professional operation
within the City limits. Bo-
rough Assemblymen Jack
Brown and Phil Nash pro-
pose Borough Ordinance
89-16 with the same pur-
pose only Bourough
wide. The Assemblymen
recently hosted a comuni-
ty meeting to discuss fur-
ther regulating the permit.
The Chamber's primary
purpose is to create a
positive climate for trade
while actively supporting
the business community.
We find ourselves in a
precarious position-54%
of our operating budget is
derived from net pro-
ceeds of the gaming per-
mit, net proceeds which
have been non-existant
for two months. The
Chamber Board of Direc-
tors at this writing takes
no position on either the
City or Borough ordiance
considering such action
would be counter pur-
pose to its own mission
statement in support of
private enterprise.

Hutchings Chev-

ber recently re-
ceived a letter from

which says "In the
fall of 1987 my mot-
orhome broke
down just outside of
town. Your Chevy
dealer, its employ-
ees and the people
of Soldotna are the
greatest, most help-
ful and friendly. I
look forward to our
return." Mr. and

Through the establishment of policies for receiving checks,
merchants and business owners can minimize their risks at the
intake point. A policy should require the following from the
check presenter and acceptor:
LB
ESS ' Presentation of ID (preferably with photo)
EFS ' Document the following numbers on all checks:
1. drivers license
2. work phone and home phone number
3. social security number
4. date of birth
5. physical residence address
' Initials of employee accepting check assures abilty to recall for witness if needed
Determine that all imprinted check information is current
Avoid accepting checks that are:
1. presented by those out of town
2. drawn on out-of-town banks
3. only general delivery addresses
Post your bad check fee in plain view
Maintain an in-house list of bad check writers (but it must be protected from public access)
Once you have taken a check that is returned by the bank, merchants have several avenues
for collecting the funds, but the success rate of recovery diminishes when good intake policies
have not been established or implemented.

Dear Mr. Call:
The City of Kenai appreciates your concern for safety in your
request for a street light at the corner of Cook Inlet View and.
Lilac Street.
Homer Electric has recently given me a cost estimate of $1,675.00
for furnishing and installing the light. I have passed this
information on to our City Council.
The Kenai City Council has asked that I let you know that they will
consider your request during their upcoming budget hearings.
Again, thank you for your concern.
Sincerely,
Keith Kornelis

AML Priority Legislation
School Construction Debt Reimbursement
HB 37 - Insurance for school facilities and
equipment; state aid for school construction.
House HESS subcommittee considered this bill on
3/6 and adopted several of the amendments suggested
by the AML Task Force on HB 37/SB 100.
Amendments to the bill included rolling back the
effective date of Section 19 to FY 91; requiring a
district to obtain the approval of the governing body
of the municipality before applying for a grant; and
including all costs of a bond issue as allowable for
reimbursement (as is now the case).
The subcommittee adopted in concept an amendment
about not considering the number of students in
determining priorities: the wording will be that all
factors in the list (with number of students added to
the list originally in the bill) must be considered and
that a priority decision may not be based solely on
the number of students affected The subcommittee
also adopted an amendment that would sunset the
bill at a given time (yet to be determined -- the
choices seem to be 1993 and 1994) but would not
reenact the current program
The bill will be heard by the whole HESS committee
on Wednesday, March 15, and the sunset date as
well as proposed AML amendments to make the
interrelationship between the municipality and the
Legislative BWkfin # -16-9
school district more specific will be discussed at that
time. The current bill calls for the school district to
apply for grants, determine its capital program needs,
make a determination of priorities, pursue a grant,
and receive a grant, all without the concurrence of
the municipality, which is responsible, by statute, for
acquiring the sites and constructing the schools.
The Task Force and the sponsors of HB 37 and SB
100 will be working on a compromise for Section 19,
the allocation formula, in the next couple of weeks,
AML Position: Support (Municipal Platform).
SB 100 - Insurance for school facilities and
equipment; state aid for school construction. SB
100 was scheduled for a hearing in the Senate HESS
Committee twice this last week, but the committee
never got around to it. Word is that on Monday,
March 13, the Chair of the committee, Senator
Fischer, will allow the first testimony on the bill.
Senator Sturgulewski, the sponsor, has prepared a
sponsor substitute which, among other things, deletes
the sections calling for reenactment of the current
program when the bill sunsets.
Increase in Minimum Entitlements
HB 101 - Increase in minimum entitlement under
state revenue sharing program. This AML priority
bill is scheduled for a hearing on Thursday, March
18, in the House Community and Regional Affairs
Committee. AML Position: Support (Municipal
Platform).
MEMBER OF THE NATIONAL LEAGUE OF CITIES AND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES
Removal of Municipal Liability Imposed by Busby
Decision
SB 66 - Immunity for treatment of intoxicated
persons. CS SB 66 (Rules) was given a first reading
in the House and referred to Labor and Commerce
and Judiciary. The Labor and Commerce Committee
considered it, along with HB 116, also on the Busby
issue, on 3/7 and passed out a committee substitute,
CS SB 66 (L&C). After much far-ranging discussion
of the need for the Iegislation, its impact on victims,
and whether or not the Busby decision really has
caused trouble for municipalities, the bill was
amended to add "gross negligence" to the Senate
bill's "intentional misconduct" standard.
The Trial Lawyers' representative, former Attorney
General Av Gross, stated during his testimony that,
so far as he knew, "no one has ever successfully
sued" on such a case and that he really thought
there was no need for any bill, choosing to overlook
entirely the question of defense costs against
nuisance suits. In the last two hearings Gross has
been the only witness against the bill.
Representative Gruenberg sponsored the "gross
negligence" amendment and has indicated to staff
that this is the best bill he thinks can pass the
House. The AML position continues to be to
support a higher standard of proof than gross
negligence. It is now very important, however, that
SB 66 in some version get through the House
Judiciary Committee (Gruenberg and Goll, co-chairs;
M. Davis, Miller, Martin, Ellis, and Davidson) and
pass the House. AML Position: Support with
deletion of "gross negligence" (Municipal Platform).
Exemption from Taxation of In -Place Resources
HB 159 - Property tax exemption for in -place
resources. On 3/8, Representative MacLean offered
a sponsor substitute, SS HB 159. The SS is a
identical to Senator Adams' bill, SB 181, including
the minor amendments made last week. Referred to
C&RA, where it is scheduled for a hearing Tuesday,
March 14, and Finance. AML Position: Support
(Res. 89-21 and recent board identification as a
priority issue.)

New Bills In&oduced
In the House
HB 198 - Nonretention of teachers. Introduced on
3/3 by Foster, HB 198 would allow a school district
to dismiss a tenured teacher if the board determined
that insufficient funds were available. Referred to
HESS and Labor & Commerce. AML Position:
Support (89 PS H.A.5).
HB I" - Continuation of teachers' salaries during
collective bargaining. Introduced by Wallis on 3/3.
HB 1" would allow school districts to not increase
the salary paid to teachers while collective bargaining
was going on after the expiration of a contract. An
exception is made for increases that would result
from any increase in experience or education earned.
AML Position: No Position.
HB 200 - Acquisition of tenure rights. Introduced
3/3 by Wallis, HB 200 would increase from two to
five the number of years of continuous service in a
school district required for tenure. Referred to
HESS and Labor & Commerce. AML Position: No
Position.
HB 206 - Creating the public school foundation
reserve account. Introduced along with HB 207 by
Hoffman and C. Davis on 3/8, HB 206 would create
a foundation reserve account in the general fund to
be used for appropriations to the public school
foundation program. Appropriations could not be
made from the fund for school debt retirement.
Although this is not a forward funding bill, the
account could be used for the early funding of
education. The Dept. of Revenue would manage the
account and the interest would be accounted for
separately. Referred to HESS and Finance. AML
Position: Support (Res. 89-3).
HB 207 - Using the earnings reserve account of the
Alaska Permanent Fund to fund the public school
foundation reserve. Introduced on 3/8, HB 207
would use the balance of the earnings reserve
account of the Permanent Fund, $605,000,000, to
fund the public school foundation account being
AML Legislative Bulletin #16-9
March 10, 1989
proposed in HB 206 (see above). Referred to HESS
and Finance. AML Position: Support (89 PS I.A3).
HB 209 - Making appropriations to tonrism,
recreation -related projects, grants, and expenses of
state government. Introduced by Brown, Ellis,
Boyer, et al. (6 sponsors) on 3/8, HB 209
appropriates $6,007,900 from the Railbelt Energy
Fund for various projects in the Railbelt and Kenai
Peninsula. Most of the projects involve historic
preservation, state parks, or tourist facilities.
Referred to Resources and Finance. AML Position:
Support concept of using Railbelt Energy Fund to
aid residents of the area (89 PS IX.C.2 & Res. 89-
32) although there are several other proposals to use
these funds also on the table.
In the Senate
SB 207 - liens on real property to secure payment
for services provided by a utility owned by a
municipality. As the title suggests, SB 207,
introduced by Adams and Coghill, allows
municipalities that own utilities to place alien on
real property to secure payment for services provided
by the utility in case of a delinquency.. Such alien
would take priority over other liens except those for
property taxes, sales and use taxes, and special
assessments. Referred to C&RA and Judiciary.
AML Position: No position.
House Action
SJR 28 - Relating to oil and gas development within
ANWR. SJR was read in the House for the first
time and referred to Resources. AML Position:
Support (89 PS IX.F.1).
SB 95 - Combining sales and use tax proposition
with incorporation of borough. SB 95 passed the
House (Yea 35, Nay 0, Excused 5) and was sent
back to the Senate for enrollment on 3/6. SB 95
was then sent to the Office of the Governor. AML
Position: Support (89 PS VM.D).
AML Legislative Bulledn #16-9
March 10, 1989
SB 153 - Supplemental appropriation for
reimbursement to municipalities under fisheries tax
refund and aviation feel revenue -sharing programs.
SB 153 read in the House for the first time and
referred to C&RA, Resources, and Finance. AML
Position: Support (Res. 89-36).
HCR 12 - Requiring a marine highway master plan.
Originally introduced by Rep. Hudson on 2/8, HCR
12 was considered by the Finance Committee and a
substitute, CS HCR 12 (Fin.). The CS requests that
the Governor direct DOT/PF to complete a marine
highway system master plan and submit it to the
Legislature for review by April 15, 1989. The master
plan is necessary to acquire federal funding for
proposed fast ferries in Southeast Alaska. The
resolution specifies twelve issues that must be
addressed in the master plan, including a summary of
the relationship between it and the overall state
transportation long -tetra plan.
The bill was passed by the House and sent to the
Senate. AML Position: Support (89 PS V.D.1).
HJR 13 - Education Endowment. The Health,
Education, & Social Services Committee offered a
committee substitute for HJR 13 on 3/3. CS HJR
13 (HESS) specifies that the funding from the
endowment would be for nubiic education only and
changes the date that the fund would be accessible
for appropriation from 1/1/2000 to 7/12003. In
addition, the repeal clause is enacted five years
earlier, the CS sunsetting the appropriation from the
Permanent Fund to the endowment fund in the year
2005 instead of the year 2010 as proposed in the
original bill.
The committee adopted the following letter of intent:
"It is the intent of the 16th Alaska State Legislature
in passing HJR 13 to the voters, that future
legislatures should not consider income from the
endowment as the only source of funding for public
elementary and secondary education, but that
additional funding sources may be sought as
determined by the will of future legislatures to meet
future educational needs."
Referred to Judiciary. AML Position: No position.
Page 3
HB 23 - Credit for part-time service in public
employees' retirement system and teachers'
retirement system. HB 23 was replaced by the
HESS Committee with CS HB 23 (State Affairs) on
3/3. The CS adds language to clarify that the
amount of credited service a person receives during
a year may not exceed one year. Referred to
Finance. AML Position: No Position.
HB 68 - Liability for release or threatened release
of hazardous substances; recovery of state costs.
Originally introduced by Rules at the request of the
Governor, HB 68 was considered by the Resources
Committee on 3/6 and a proposed substitute,
CS HB 68 (Res) was offered. The CS adds "liability
of response action contractors" to the title, as well as
adding three new sections and necessary language
changes to define "response contractors" and explain
their liability in the instance of a hazardous waste
accident.
In addition, language was added to specify that
municipalities' liability in clean-up efforts is limited to
gross negligence or intentional misconduct. AML
Position: No Position.
HB 80 - Increasing the excise tax on cigarettes.
HESS Committee offered a substitute, CS HB 80
(HESS), on 3/3 which changed the title of this bill to
"An act increasing the excise tax on cigarettes, and
authorizing municipalities to levy and collect taxes on
the retail sale of cigarettes and tobacco products
without limitation." In addition to specifically
granting municipalities taxing power on these
products, the bill raises the excise tax on cigarettes
from 5.5 mills on each cigarette to 15 mills (the
original bill called for an increase to 10 mills).
Referred to Finance. AML Position: No position
based on specific Policy Statement language, although
89 PS I.C.1 would indicate we should support it.
HB 106 - Relating to hazardous waste. HB 106 was
replaced with a committee substitute by the Finance
Committee on 3/3. CS HB 106 (Fin), unlike the
original bill and the Resource Committee's CS,
would not require an annual progress report to the
Legislature. The Finance version would, however,
allow a department representative to visit hazardous
waste generating sites for various purposes without
such a visit being regarded as a formal investigation
or inspection. Language added in the Resources CS
disallowing citations and penalties as a result of such
Page 4
a visit has been deleted from the Finance CS.
Referred to Rules. AML Position: No Position.
HB 107 - Appropriation for hazardous waste
redaction grants. HB 107 was reported out of the
Finance Committee on 3/3. Referred to Rules.
AML Position: No Position.
HB 118 - Modifying the ELF. Resources Committee
offered a substitute, CS HB 118 (Res), adding an
effective date clause to the title and providing for
retroactive application to January 1, 1989.
Provisional effective date language would make the
act effective the first day of the month in which the
bill is passed, in case the courts were to strike down
the section requiring retroactive payment.
CS HB 118 (Res) would require all taxes due,
including the retroactive portion, to be paid by the
20th of the calendar month following the effective
date of the act. Taxes not paid by that time would
be considered delinquent and assessed interest
charges under AS 43.10 (enforcement & collection of
delinquent taxes). If a producer's tax liability were
reduced by the retroactive application of the new
ELF, the overpayment would be credited to the
taxpayer's future tax liability. Referred to Finance.
AML Position: Support (89 PS I.I.4).
Senate Adion
HJR 21 - Disapproving Local Boundary Commission
recommendation for annexation of territory to
Fairbanks North Star Borough. Up for its final
reading before the Legislature on 3/3, HJR 21 passed
the Senate (Yeas 11, Nays 7, Excused 2). The
resolution was engrossed, enrolled, signed, and sent
to the Governor at 10:18 a.m. on 3/6. AML
Position: No Position.
SB 10 - Deadlines for action on funding of public
education. The Finance Committee considered SB
10 on 3/3 and recommended a substitute, CS SB 10
(Fin). The CS would change the Legislature's
deadline for funding education programs from the
original SB 10 date, March 16, to April 7.
Additionally, the CS would grant the school board an
additional five days to submit the district's budget to
the borough assembly (April 20 instead of April 15).
AML Legislative Bulletin #16-9
March 10, 1989
Senator Binkley signed "no recommendation"; all
other members signed "do pass." Nonetheless, the
feeling in the capitol is that the concept of early
funding for education is in trouble. Referred to
Rules. AML Position: Support (Res. 89-14).
SB 73 - Extension and modification of retirement
incentive program for PERS and TRS. The State
Affairs Committee offered CS SB 73 (SA) on 3/7.
Several changes affecting both TRS and PERS,
including dates of eligibility and language relating to
former municipal service, were made. Referred to
HESS & Finance. AML Position: No position.
SB 85 - Issuance of private activity bonds. SB 85
passed the Senate on 3/6 and was sent to the House.
AML Position: Support (89 PS X.B.5)
SB 153 - Supplemental appropriation for
reimbursement to municipalities under fisheries tax
refund and aviation fuel revenue sharing programs.
SB 153 passed the Senate on 3/6 and was sent to the
House. AML Position: Support (Res. 89-36).
House ComedU a HewingslMft ngs
SB 168 - Autborizing gambling enterprises in
municipalities and on state lErries. Considered by
the Community & Regional Affairs Committee, SB
168 was reported out on 3/3 without
recommendation. Referred to State Affairs,
Transportation, & Finance. AML Position: No
Position.
SJR 28 - Relating to oil and gas development within
ANWR. SJR 28 moved from the Rules Committee
to the Senate Floor on 3/3. Senator Pearce asked
for unanimous consent to abstain from voting due to
a conflict of interest. There were objections and SJR
28 passed the Senate (Yeas 15, Nays 0, Excused 3,
Absent 2). The resolution was sent to the House
(see House Action). AML Position: Support (89
PS IX.F.1).

Why the AMUJIA Program??
The AMUJIA Pooled Risk Management Program
offers its members control of their own risk and
insurance destinies. The claims we pay are our own-
-no one else's. The participants control the claims
handling process. Our claims administrators work for
the AMUTA and its participants, not for an
insurance company. We don't settle claims for the
sake of getting them "off the books." If we think a
claim has merit, we try to settle it quickly and fairly.
If it does not have merit, we will fight it.
Our Loss Prevention Management Program is a
management program — not just an inspection
service. We assist our members in organizing their
loss prevention and safety programs and also with
implementing and monitoring them. This is an
active, hands-on management approach. The key to
the success of the over 75 public entity pools now in
operation is control -- control of your risks both
before and after a loss occurs!
Join the AMUJIA NOW and utilize our assistance
in helping your municipality control its losses and
control its costs!

Control Your Losses, Control Your Costs
What is the number one type of employee injury?
Back problems!! Back problems arise from
overdoing it and improper lifting. Two simple
suggestions:
1. If you have a heavy load to lift or carry, GET
HELP!
The motto is, "LOAD TROUBLE? - GO
DOUBLE!!"
2. If a load is difficult to handle, GET HELP!
The motto is, "GIVE YOUR BACK A BREAK!!"
Following these two simple suggestions can help
prevent your employees' back problems and save
your municipality money.

Central Kenai Peninsula Commercial Fishing Study
Introduction
This study was requested and partially funded by the City of Kenai at
the request of the Economic Development Commission and the Port and
Harbor Commission. The principal goal of this study was to examine the
economic impact of commercial fishing on the City of Kenai.
Commercial salmon fishing has been an important part of the Kenai
economy since the early '50s. It has taken on added importance in the
past three years for two reasons; one, the downturn in oil production
in Alaska has placed a greater emphasis on other sectors of the economy
such as commercial fishing and tourism. Secondly, a combination of
management and environmental factors have combined to produce healthy
fish stocks wftich have resulted in record catches and record gross
values.
Recognizing that commercial fishing is an important part of their
economy the City of Kenai has been searching for ways to assist the
continued development of this industry such as the development of a dock
and other support facilities at the Port of Kenai. The City realized,
however, that there was not adequate documentation of the impact of
commercial fishing to logically plan for its development. Thus the need
for this study.
Early in the planning phase of this study I recognized that it would not
be meaningful to look at the impact of commercial fishing on just the
City of Kenai. The fisheries and the infrastructure that support them
are regional and looking only at the City of Kenai would be too
restrictive. I decided then.to make this an area study with a focus and
emphasis on the City of Kenai. This study area takes in the Central

Commercial Fishing Impacts
Assessing the impact of any industry on a local economy is never easy.
The total economy of a city, region, state or nation is composed of many
sectors which interact in a variety of complex ways. Economic impact
can be viewed as the answer to the question: "What is the economic
activity generated by the use of the resource?" (Fay and Thomas; 1986).
Economic impact is usually evaluated in terms of both income and
employment. Economic impacts of commercial fishing can be separated
into direct effects (income and employment received in commercial fish
harvesting), indirect effects (income and employment generated from
business purchases by fishermen, value added by seafood processing, and
business purchases made by processors), and induced effects (income and
employment generated from the spending of income from direct and
indirect effects) (Kruse, 1988). These induced effects include
employment and income generated from building, repairing and maintaining
vessels, selling merchandise to fishermen, air and ground transportation

The remainder cf this report contains a general description of the
Central Kenai reninsula fishing industry, a summary of the data obtained
from the two surveys and some conclusions about the direct and indirect
impacts of the commercial fishing industry on the local area economy.
THE: CONM RCI.AL. FISIIG IMUSTRY
The following is a description of the commercial fishing industry as it
existed on the central Kenai Peninsula in 1986.
Saivestingr Sector
The dominant fishery of the Central Kenai Peninsula is the Upper Cook
Inlet (UCI) salmon fishery. In 1986 a total of 1323 permit holders
participated in this fishery. Of this total, 586 were drift gillnet
fishermen and 737 were set gillnet fishermen. Residents of the study
area ;ho n.m Permits for this fishery include 233 drift fishermen and
294 setnet fishermen.
In additycn to the UCI fishery residents of the study area participated
in a variety of other permit fisheries including: halibut, herring,
blackcod, clams, crab, shrimp, bottomfish and others.
Table 1 is a breakdoim of Alaska fishery permit holders, their landings
.and esttnated earnings arranged by resident community within the study
area for 1986. It also indicates the number of out -of -area permit
holders who participate in the UCI salmon fishery.
'""1BLE 1
In 1986 the ex -vessel (yarned by fishermen) value of the UCI salmon
fishery was $46,°61,000, 63% of this went to drift gillnet fishermen and
379.1 to setnet fishermen. Residents of the study area received 45% of
this gross value or $20,923,000. Other Alaska permit holders received
$18,460,000 (390) from this fishery and $7,540,000 (16%) ;rent to out-of-
state fishermen. City of Kenai fishermen earned $6,951,000 from the UCI
fishery, the highest for any unit within the study area.
The 'other" fisheries participated in by study area residents earned
them a total gross income of $8,782,000. City of Kenai fishermen's
share of this was $2,505,000 (290).
Because the UCI fishery is so important to area residents Table 2
examines the distribution of permits and income from this fishery to
study area residents in more detail.
TABLE 2
Residents of Kenai hold 160 of the UCI drift gillnet permits and 11% of
the UCI setnet permits. In the "other" fisheries category 34% of the
permit holders reside in Kenai. For the total UCI fishery 390 of the
drift permits and 32% of the setnet permits are held by residents of the

study area. - i:a r�sti;, .o note that local setnetters caught over
501, of tle tctal :;e_tnet _atcn in 1986 (Tablo *her Alaskan
residents told 31 '; ,t '-he drift and Setnet ermits for UCI •;bile
only 29% of the _:rift _ 2rmits and 1^% of the zetner- „e,nits are held I,v
PRQCESSIlIG SECT^R
The processing sector has a greater impact on the local economy than the
harvesting sector. This sector is not easily d,2rin=d nor are *.he
impacts atraight `o rrard. A processor can be as simple as an individual
who buys fish __cm a fisherman and sells it directiv to a market in the
area, region, state or thousands of miles away. At the other end of the
spectrum are the full-scale processors with permanent facilities and
employing hundreds of people. In this report most of the emphasis will
be on the latter because they process the majority of the fish and have
the most impact on the iocai economv.
In 1986 there were 33 processors licensed by the Alaska Department of
Fish and Same to buy and process fish in the Upper Cook Inlet. Sixteen
of these could be considered small operations. Usually they only
broo!cer the fish or they bought and processed small quantities. There
were 10 medium sized ,Processors and 7 large ones. iNineteen of these
processors iiere located in tte -study area (8 small, 6 meaium and 5
large).
Eighty to iiinety percent of the fish processed in the study area are
dressed (headed and gutted) and frozen before being sent on to markets
throughout the world. approximately ten percent of the fish are dressed
and shipped out fresh and 'h_ z_mainder of the catch is canned. A small
but growing percent of the fish processed in the study is reaching the
gourmet food market in the form of smoked fish and other speciality
products.
The immediate destination for most of the processed fish from the study
area is Japan, Seattle and Europe with Japan ranked as the number one
destination. The majority of product travels by sea with air freight
the second most important. Virtually all of the fresh product leaves
the area by air. Land transportation is frequently used for nearby
destinations such as Anchorage and Canada.
The principal economic impact of processors is as the buyer of raw fish
and in the jobs creatad in the processing operation. They also make
major contributions to the local economy through goods and services
purchased. These factors will be addressed under the Economic Impacts
portion of this report.
Management Sector
Fisheries management is another important aspect of the commercial
fishing industry that results in significant economic impact. In the
central Kenai Peninsula there are three branches of fisheries management
to be accounted for.

The Alaska D"Partr;^nt f Fish and Game Commercial Fisheries Division has
the larr,est ;,ianar_ter..ent role and consequent!,; the largest economic
ThiZ !Jvisicn ::as the ccmbined --esponsibility of stoc-
assessment and the development and application of regulations for ill
upper _^ok Inlet fi=herics. In 1986 the commercial fish division had sip
permanent staff .,embers and twenty-two seasonal staff members. Th.
combined employment time of the seasonal staff Teas equivalent to 3.5
full-time .?mplcyPes. The total operating budget of this division was
�$743,'30t 1
The Fisheries Research -nd Enhancement Division (FRED) of the Alaska
Department of Fish and Game also has a role in the Upper Cook Inlet
fisheries. Its principal duty is operating the Crooked Creek hatchery
and providing salmon smolt and fry for a number of enhancement projects
around Cook Inlet. This division has a staff of two full-time and five
seasonal emplovees. The seasonal employees are equivalent to one and a
"al` gull-T11z'e,empi_Qyees. This division has an operating budget of
Th third trance cf the management sector is the Fish and Wildlife
Protection :service, a division of the Alaska Department of Public
Safety. Determining the economic impact of this division that results
from their role in the commercial fishing industry is not straight-
fonaard. Not only i+oes the Protection Service enforce commercial
fishing regulations they also are charged with enforcing all wildlife

Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association
Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association,Inc. (CIAA) is an Alaskan regional
non-profit corporation established and operated for the enhancement of
salmon fisheries. Cook Inlet commercial fisherman voted in 1981 to
assess a 2% tax on gross salmon harvest from Cook Inlet. The tax is
collected by the State of Alaska from salmon processors and then paid to
the Associaton by the State in the form of a grant. The proceeds are to
be used for enhancement and development of the salmon fishery with a
`2, goal of stabilixinq the salmon runs and produce sufficient fish to meet
the needs of all user groups.
�oQ In 1986 CIAA had seven full-time employees and twenty-six part time
employees. The part time employees worked about three months each so
these twenty-six positions are equivalent to about six full-time jobs.

this business would net exist without the commercial fishing industry.
Commercial Fisherman's Survey
There were 1752 surveys mailed to commercial fishing permit holders.
This, included all of t;•:e t,. ^er Ccok Inlet setnet and drift net 7 ermit
holders and aoprc:,,imately 427 individuals who resiaea in the stud;r area
and particip,y�ed in .icneries ctner than upper CocK l:iet salmon. One
hundred and port"-ri:'e sui'evs sere returned wltn 'ncugh data -o be
included in the stuay. '.his represents a return rate ;i eignt percent.
Not as good as I wouid have iiked but adequate to prcviae reliable data.
Even though this study is i::cused on a particular geographic area
(central Kenai Peninsula) it was important to get a cross-section of
returns which represented all perrut holders. T,ble 3 indicated the
percent of returns from various areas and does show a good geographical
spread.
There ,,ere two major thr'ssts z this survey. G vas to examine the
spending pattarn of commercial fishermen in order to see 11ow and where
their income is spent. The second was to determine the number of jobs
generated by this industry. ;long with these major thrusts the survey
was used to ask a number of ether questions relative to economic
impacts, especially on the Cit,Y of Kenai.
Harvesting Sector Jobs
Jobs are an important indicator of economic: impact. In analyzing the
number of jobs created by the harvesting sector you have to avoid the
trap of equating crew positions with jobs. If a fisherman participates
in a number of different fisheries, i.e. salmon, halibut, crab, he may
have several different crew positions that are filled by the same
individual and in effect create only one job. The data obtained on the
fi-shermen's survey indicate there is a 0.7 correlation between crew
positions and jobs. This same correlation factor was found in a previous
study done by this author (Coughenower,1987).
Using the above correlation factor and crew data reported on the
fishermen survey I estimate there were approximately 3306 jobs created
by the UCI fishery and 525 jobs by the "other" fisheries. Verification
of these numbers was provided by another question on the fishermen's
IrZ_N 1 - 2/27/0-9
7
curvev -.;hich about jobs created. This data indicated 3127 jots
in the UCI' fisher _.nd ''C,0 jobs from the "other" fisheries category.
F r the _ ri ..itud i c
_ I =have chosen to average the t,70 sets of
figures and use "25u �bs for the UCI fishery and 562 jobs for the
" ether" fisheries. F'een in mind that these job totals include the
r:ermi.t holders as ;;e iI :s .any employees ( crew members 1 .
Because fishing in Alaska is primarily seasonal work it is not easy to
relate mobs in this industry with jobs in other business sectors.
--m,jerting seasonal ^'as to full-time equivalents is one technique often
used to overcome this difficulty. Even though I intend to make this
conversion there is an inherent risk in using this interpretation which
I will explain later.
a, e,:-.age, i^b reported in the fishermen's survey lasted just over
t°. ncnt.?`.:s. If :;e mult,rly the total number of jobs (3819) by t..o

the UCI .and other fisheries.
fine average net income reported by fishermen was $23, 530 for a permit
hider annd 5,672 for a crew member (employee!.
The risk alluded to above about using full-time equivalents for
compar:.n g flee fistrs ag industry to other businesses is this: the
salaries ,,-a_ne d in seasonal commercial fishing are often large enough to
provide :,n ,annual inccmn. The income earned in several months of
. ammerc:al is in some cases enough to provid-2 for annual living
e.xFenses aaj * le ishing toot crew member r operator does not need or
want tz: seek :additional employment. For ;aany fishermen their seasonal
j,Tb is eglua.,.alent to a full -time The true job impact these
f .sheri.es lies someWi�ere betwee 3819 seasonal jobs and the 679 full-
time equi-;alert: jobs, favoring I ,;o think, the seasonal number.
Of the <Mrew member jobs created by the UCI and "other" fisheries 24
went to Cit:7 of 'Kenai residents, 61. to other Alaskan residents and 15s
to out-of-state residents. This is the only job residency breakdown
developed from the data.
Harvesting Sector income
The average gross income reported by the respondents to this survey was
$158,000 with an average personal income (money used for personal
expenses) of $23,500. A weighting factor was used to distribute the
totals for each expense category over all the surveys received.
There is of course a very wide range of average incomes represented by
this group of fishermen so anyone making use of these numbers should
b,�ar this in mind. These numbers can be used, however, in estimating
the gross economic impacts of the commercial fishing industry.

A more useful .lay to =:7 r.:e results of these expenditures is to look

From Table 4 it is possible to see which areas represent major expense
for a fisherman, such as: cre�7 shares, 25`=.; boat leans, 5.89s; fuel,
2.6%; groceries, 2.7° ; and personal income, 181.
The spending patterns are also quite interesting. For any expense item

six geographic areas. For instance under Food and Groceries we see that

e use u in eeing where fishing in ustry money is going and what might
be done to change this distribution pattern.

Business Survey
A business survey was developed as a tool to examine some of the
indirect and induced economic impacts of the commercial fishing
industry. By surveying businesses who provide goods and services to the
industry I had hoped to develop an estimate of the induced income and
jobs this activity created.

Summary of Grass Economic Impacts
In `. i secti.M i 1"'L11 attempt to pull together all of the major
eccr.-mac impact factors developed in tie body of this report. The
prc•cessiLq sector has -een described in general but no specific economic
data s presentea. Table 5 summarizes processing data for the study
area. T :is Jata is cnl•, for Upper ,:,Dok Inlet salmon processed in the
stud-., area. Processing of "other" scecies is not included because there
is ro reliable data readily availably.
T1' BIu. 5
The estimated :;holesal` value for the Upper Cook Inlet fishery in 1986
is 107.5 million dollars. Of this amount approximately eighty percent
or 86.5 million dollars was handled by processors in the study area.
Hose much of this value accrues to the local economy is difficult to
measure. estimates from several sources are that fifty to seventy-five
percent of a prc--essers income is spent locally. For the purpose of
this study I will use sixty. Thus about 51.9 million dollars of the
processing sector income impacts the local economy.
Jobs generated b,.? the processing sector are also difficult to gauge.
From data obtained in the surveys returned by processors and from
persona mmunT - ions with processors I estimate there were
approximately 28W jobs in the processing sector (in the study area) in
1986. About one percent of these jobs are full-time, thirty-four
percent are half-~i:me, and sixty-four percent last for about 2 months.
The full-time erpui-:.alency for all of these obs would he abou 803.
Statewide statistics indicate that sixty percent of the seafood
proces` sue, t�or�1� s are from out-o - a�laska
ruse, 1988). The data )
obtained in my sun✓eys puts the out workers at thirty-three

Some Personal Comments on Economic Impact
Economic i.iipact is onl r cne way to examine iiow an i:id istr',� or business
or social activity effects a community. Certainly there are a variety
of considerations :Then trying to :stablish nat _.ii -r_articular
activity days in `.".e life cf community. factors and
traditional use are just. -•.;o t:tings that must i:e taken into account.
In my opinion you cannot use a single factor, li:e economic impact cr
cost -benefits, to determine if one activity is more iriportant then
another. The total economy of any community is more than the sum of its
many parts. Take away any single part and you .lay alter the nature of a
community far beyond anything we can predict.

TO CAREGIVERS: HERES HOW TO COPE
CARING FOR A DEMENTIA PATIENT MEANS
READJUSTING YOUR OWN DAILY ACTIVITIES.
SOME PRACTICAL TIPS:
* KEEP LIFE SIMPLE. Don't overwhelm
the patient with strange situations, back-
ground noise or several questions at once.
* DON'T ARGUE. Give choices, not orders:
"Do you want to go to bed now or sit out-
side another half hour?". This helps deflect
and emotional response.
*SAVE FACE. Talk. to your loved one; never
treat an patient as a "non -person". Encourage
your loved on to share in daily activities,
even if you must guide the situation.
*ACCEPT NEW ROLES. The illness of a loved
one may thrust unfamiliar duties upon spouse
and children. You may have to take over
finances or household chores. Don't be afraid
to seek help.
*MAKE PLANS. What will happen to the patient
is you become ill or die? Plan for backup care.
Some families make a "cope notebook" listing
the patient's needs and habits. This infor-
mation can be vital to someone who takes the
caregivers place.

TIPS FOR INTERACTING WITH ALZHEIMER'S PATIEI
REMEMBER THAT THE PATIENT IS DEALING WITH..
* confusion
* loss of self esteem
* anxiety
* irritability
* feelings of depression (when aware of
impairment
WHEN SPEAKING TO THE PATIENT...
* approach the patient from the front to
avoid startling them
* get their attention, address by name
* maintain eye contact, lean forward to
show your interest
* be calm and reassuring
* speak slowly and distinctly
* use simple, concrete words; avoid abstrac
concepts
* use non-verbal gestures to help him
understand your question
* the patient also communicates non-verball
be alert to his body language
* ask only one question at a time; too
many choices are confusing
* wait a few minutes, then re -phrase your
question if he doesn't seem to understand
* allow him adequate time to respond;
be patient!
* speak to the patient adult -to -adult; AD
patients may be impaired, but they are
not children
* use humor whenever possible, but not at
the patient's expense
* smiling is important, as is the ise
of exaggerated facial expression
* the feelings expressed in your vice
are as important as the words you say, so
try not to address the patient when you
are emotionally upset. Dementia patients
often "pick up" on emotionally charged
atmospheres and become agitated �:hem-
selves.
MAINTAIN A DAILY ROUTINE....
* Be consistent, the patient will have
trouble coping with change
* Daily exercise is an important part of th
daily routine
* Keep your expectations realistic
*Break down tasks into simple steps. I.f.
patient is not cooperative, stop and try
later
* Remember that the patient may have lost
the ability to judge between safe and un-
safe conditions. Evaluate each situation
avoid placing the person in a potentially
dangerous position
* A routine may also save the caregiver
time and energy
