MEMORANDUM
TO: John J. Williams, Mayor
Wm. J. Brighton, City Manager
Cary R. Graves, City Attorney
FROM: Carol L. Freas, City Clerk
City of Kenai
DATE: September 5, 1991
RE: PROPOSED SPECIAL ELECTION
At the September 4, 1991 Council Meeting, you discussed with
Council the possibility of holding a special election in early
February. You stated that if the Carr's people are able to give
Council some favorable and solid cost information at the Work
Session on September 9, 1991, Council may then proceed with
bringing the discussions to the citizens. You suggested holding
a Town Hall. meeting on October 9, 1991, after sending 75-100
letters to potential users of the facility encouraging them to
attend.
You also suggested that the petition be ready to distribute to
the desiring citizens attending the Town Hall meeting to begin
collecting signatures.
If Carr's comes forward with the necessary information and
Council decides whether or not to proceed with the project, the
following calendar of events is required.
October 9, 1991 - Town Hall Meeting and distribution of
petitions.
November 9, 1991 - Petitions must be returned to the Clerk.
December 9, 1991 - Petition signatures must be verified.
-1-
December 18, 1991 - Introduction of an Ordinance authorizing
a Special Election or passage of a
Resolution authorizing a special
Election (Charter allows either one).
December 19-20, 1991 - If a resolution is passed, authorizing a
Special Election, Pre -clearance request
mailed to the Justice Department. Allow
60-75 days from date mailed.
January 2?, 1992 - The first Wednesday of the month is
January 1, a holiday. I am assuming
Council may move the meeting to January
2, 1992. If an ordinance was introduced
at the December 18, 1991 meeting, it
will be before Council for public
hearing at this meeting.
January 3-4, 1992 - Assuming an ordinance has been passed,
Pre -clearance request mailed to the
Justice Department. Allow at least 60
days for clearance, preferably 75 days.
Count starts from date mailed to the
Justice Department.
March 4, 1992 - 75 days passed from December 20 -
Special Election Day.
1644
March 19, 1992 - 75 days passed from January 4 - Special
Election Day.
In speaking with Attorney Graves, it was pointed out to me that
the Charter, §11-1(c) also states,
ordinances dedicating revenues, ordinances making,
repealing, transferring, or otherwise changing
appropriations, and special ordinances, shall not be
subject to either the initiative or the referendum.
The above has not yet been investigated.
