It is our understanding that the City wishes to identify the engineering_ costs associated with updating the existing 1985 plans and specifications for the "Lawton Drive Extended Gravity and Pressure Sewer Interceptor", a project designed by our firm. For the purposes of this proposal, we have separated our submit- tal into four phases. We anticipate performing the following: 1. Update the existing plans and specifications; coordinate utility changes; apply for Alaska Highways (A.D.O.T.P.F.) permit; apply for approval from Corps of Engineers (CORPS), Alaska Department of Fish and Game (A.D.F.G.), Alaska Depart- ment of Natural resources (A.D.N.R.), Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (A.D.E.C.), and Alaska Department of Governmental Coordination (A.D.G.C.); update the construc- tion cost estimate. Of these items, reacquisition of a permit to place fill in wetlands and related work within Beaver Creek is felt to be the area where our major effort will be directed.

Freas, City Clerk Approved by Finance: (9/11/92) kl MEMORANDUM TO: Kenai City Council FROM: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director DATE: September 11, 1992 SUBJECT: Kenai Courthouse FOR: City Council meeting of 9/16/92 1791-1991 C'rI t CITY OF KENA 210 FIDALGO KENAI, ALASKA 99611 TELEPHONE 283 - 7535 FAX 907-283.3014 Council 9/ 16/92 Courthouse - MCG Inspection Fee Increase Request The Kenai Courthouse project was shut down on July 29, 1992 because of contaminated soil problems at the site. After a tremendous amount of testing and preparatory work by Grace Drilling, ENSR, ADEC, McCool Carlson Green (MCG), Nelson, Kluge, the Alaska Court System (ACS), and the City, the contractor was given a notice to proceed on September 4, 1992. We have lost 37 days of valuable time. In ,an effort to keep this project going through the winter we have asked the contractor to accelerate his work. We need to get the excavation and concrete work done before our weather tunes to a hard continuous freeze. We need to get this project back on schedule to minimize construction costs and reduce any potential claims. I have given the contractor authorization to continue an accelerated schedule up to a total not -to - exceed amount of $70,000 over the original contract amount. I am presently working on a new method of payment by force account, (time & material reimbursement), for excavation and concrete work. The ACS has concurred with directing the contractor to accelerate his construction schedule. Both the ACS and the City strongly believe that the former lessee, Grace Drilling, is responsible for these additional costs. Accurate and detailed documentation is extremely important during this time of construction. We need to know exactly what happens, who does what. time spent, equipment hours, materials used, supplies used, etc. We need to know every detail of what is happening and when. Separate records are needed for work with the contaminated soils (being billed directly to Grace Drilling) and for tether work on the project. Extra project costs due to the delays caused by the Page 2 Increased fee request 9/ 11 /92 soils contamination need to be accuratley detailed for future billing to Grace Drilling. Soil quantity records need to be accurately kept. Attached is a request from Nelson & Associates, project Civil and Geotech Engineers, for additional funds because of the contractor's accelerated schedule. Their original proposal was for 120 hours of regular time and 30 hours overtime. As you can see, they are now working 12 to 13.5 hours per day and estimate needing 251.5 hours of regular time, 213.5 hours of overtime, and 20 hours of engineering time. I am sending this letter and their request to ACS today for their approval. Hopefully I will receive their reply before the Council meeting. Public Works recommends that: The City of Kenai increases the inspection contract with McCool Carlson Green on the Kenai Courthouse project by a not -to -exceed amount of $23,535.00 to cover the inspection costs due to the contractor's accelerated work. The accelerated work is necessary because of the delays caused by contaminated soils on the site.

S'O / hone # Fas � 2 Fea # RE: Alaska state courthouse,iLenai- Inspection Dear Xr. Carlson, As you know the excavation work on the Courthouse began on July 28th. Work was stopped on July 29th due to presence of contami- nated soils which were found'in the excavated material. The City directed us to continue inspection of the site during the first three days after the contamination was discovered, in order to document the areas where test holes were being excavated. Work was restarted on September 4. Due to the extensive delays and the presence of the contaminated soils, the contractor has been directed to work on a force account basis and to accelerate the work until the project is brought back on schedule. As a result the City has directed me to provide full time inspection of the work in order to maintain quality control and to document the force account efforts of the contractor. The job has been complicated by the presence of the contaminated material. The contractor is having to separate the contaminated material from the non -contaminated material as it is excavated and is stockpil- ing the contaminated material on lined staging areas on the adjacent lots. The work is proceeding in a piecemeal fashion as dictated by the contaminated soils. The result of this situation is that we will need to increase our budget in order to provide the full time inspection required by the circumstances. originally, we estimated that it would require 120 hours straight time and 30 hours overtime (fifteen 10-hr days) to inspect the excavation and backfill work. Since the contractor has resumed work our inspector has been onsite for 48 hours straight time and 28 hours overtime through September 9th. When combined with the inspection work prior to the resump- tion of work, the inspection time totals 91.5 hours straight time and 37.5 hours overtime. In addition I have had 6.5 hours of time on the project for meetings and coordination relative to the soil contamination. I asked the excavation contractor for an estimate of the time that he expects it will take to complete the excavation work this fall. He estimates that it will take approximately 4 more weeks 1 ZTT - to complete the work that needs to be done this fall. He said he will be working sun up to sundown, for an average of 12 hrs/ day. He said that he had been told that the general contractor intends to work two 10hr shifts, seven days per week to complete the, concrete work once he can get started. I assume that the con- crete work will start at that rate next week. I assume that the: city will need us to continue documenting time and material efforts as that work progresses also. in order to help keep costs down I propose to provide spot check coverage for the concrete work. We could probably spot check the concrete forming and rebar tieing work to maintain force account control an provide full time inspection during the pours. I have included 20 hrs for Engineering supervision/coordination and for site meetings, etc. My best estimate at this time is that our budget should be in- creased by $21,395.50 as detailed below: Inspection Coverage Testing Inspector: Engineer Compaction: 24@ $65= st 131.5 hrs x $50/hr = $ 6,575.00 of 183.5 hrs x $63/hr = $11,560.50 st 20 hrs x $85/hr x = $ 1,700.00 $1,560.00 $21,395.50 Compaction testing of areas to be excavated and backfilled under the contract is paid for by the contractor however, areas that are excavated only to remove the contaminated soils, which would otherwise be considered suitable in situ soils is not the con- tractors responsibility. I have prepared a spread sheet, attached, which compares our estimated versus actual coverage to date.

This is to cover additional costs due to the soils contamination problem and the necessary accelerated work schedule. It is for additional inspection costs by McCool Carlson Green and Kluge and Associates. I have received verbal approval from the Alaska Court System for the additional work by Nelson and Associates. (Item C-7a in packet.) I request that the Council amend Resolution No. 92-64 (Item C-7) by increasing the $23,535 amount by adding $13,537 for a new total of $37,072. I also request that the Council change the Public Works recommendation on McCool Carlson Green's inspection contract (see page 2 of Item C-7a): The City of Kenai approves of an increase in the inspection contract with McCool Carlson Green on the Kenai Courthouse project by a not -to -exceed amount of $23,535.00 to cover the increased inspection costs by Nelson and Associates due to the contractor'§ accelerated work, subject to written approval by the Alaska Court System.^e City of Kenai approves of an increase in the inspection contract with McCool Carlson Green on the Kenai Courthouse project by a not -to - exceed amount of $13,537.00 to cover &increased inspection costs by McCool Carlson Green and Kluge and Associates due to the contractor's accelerated work, subject tckwritten approval by the Alaska Court System.

Attached is a proposal letter froth i11 Kluge i the he anticipates. While it is hard to quantify the exact number of�at mi t be necessary there will definitely be impacts and it is only fair that we.be compensated for our additional time. For both Kluge and McCool Carlson Green a potential impacts include the need to assist the contractor in getting back on schedule. That mesas we are and will be evaluating alternate methods of construction that will help him expedite the job. We are doing this in a effort to minimize the time and cost impacts to the City and the Court System. We are requesting that our not -to -exceed fee for Construction Administration be increased by the following amount: McCool Carlson Breen Staff Architect - 8 hrs x 4 weeks • 32 hrs @ $75 a $2,400 Kluge Associates $10,125 Mark-up @ 10% $1,012 Total additional fee $13,537 At this point we believe this will cover our additional time. If we need to spend more that this we will make every effort to notify you before empending additional time. Kluge is requesting authorization for the additional fees by September 18, 1992 so I would appreciate your response prior to that date. Sincerely, McCool Carlson Green Michael P.

ALASKA STATE COURTHOUSE KENA ALASKA IIINIIIIII As you are aware, our August invoice included a separate billing for services pertaining to soft contan- i- notion issues. The Contractor has agreed to an accelerated schedule of construction, as requested by the City. Included, as part of the work plan, is two crews woofing twenty hours a day. six days a week. As of a September 9,1992 letter from 0 dot S Construction, the Contactor asdmtcd 35 days to be back on track with the building. This schedule and the City's request to maintain records of additional constntc- tion cost related to delays are requiring additional sen►ices on our part. Attached is an additional services proposal based on construction continuing on an accelerated schedule until October 16, 1992. The schedule requires overtime and additional workforce not included in our agreement. We have included a credit for services that were budgeted in our original contract. Also included in the proposal is time expended on communication and involvement with the contaminated soils issue, Excavation in the building area is nearing completion. Our involvement in the construction is going to be increasing rapidly. We are and will be required to spend more time and workforce than budgeted dealing with Contractor's sequencing, expedited schedule, expedited work methods, weather concerns, documentation of equipment for accelerated schedule, eat. The Contractor has been demanding consid- erable amounts of our time for this project which were unforeseen and a direct result of the soils issue. I trust that this explanation and the attached proposal will satisfy the City's concerns of additional service Costs. Our proposal is based on projected limo to reach the original sch impact cost of our services, We will continue additional services proposal, until September 18, 1992, Written authorization will be If you have any questions or need more information please feel free Sincerely, KLUGE & ASSOCIATES Bill Kluge, noipal Architect BKltw Attachnielit edule timing.

Our intent was to provide services utilising threw employees as sentation by our firm for this work was budgeted as listed for the time period below; days per week con - indicated, Repro - Services included in our Original Contract: Notice to Proceed of July 28, 1992 thru October 16,1992 Principal Architect 64 Ilrs. ® $85/4r, $3,440 Intern Architect 4e Hrs, SAir. 2,160 Clerical 32 Me. r35/11r, ,yM Total Fee $8,720 This level of services represents 3.2 manhours of inspection per 8 hours of construction. Proposed Services of Accelerated Schedule Acceleration of the construction schedule to twenty hours per day, six days per week is a 2.5 time in. crease in scheduling, Twenty hours per day demands overtime hours and additional manpower of Kluge &c Associates for parity in representation. A proportionate increase of representation does not allow for changed critical path issues, More attention and time will be expended brainstorming and providing acceptable approaches to expedite work. We are currently working with the Contractor and prime Architectural firm modifying waterproofing requirements to accommodate the new schedule, Changes such as these are taking additional time on our part, Cold weather and proper protection of work will soon be an unanticipated increased demand on our firm. Our proposal allows time to deal with such issues, It is in the City's best interest to accommodate the Contractor to the greatest extent possible in returniq this project to its original schedule. Lack of Owners Representation on site can result in further delay claims by the Contractor. Delay claims resulting from inability to get direction or appro- vals in a timely fashion, will cost the City far more than the cost of added representation on site. Pull time project representation would be an optimum approach in limiting further delay claims, We are proposing to provide periodic additional Owners Representation as follows: Notice to Restart Construction September 4, Principal Architect overtime Staff Architect overtime Intern Architect Clerical Total Fee Credit for Original Total Additional Fee 1992 thru October 16,1992 32 Fits $85/Hr. 32 Hrs.. $127.50/Nr, 48 Firs, $65/Hr. 48 Hrs, $97.50/1:4. 40 Hrs. $45/Hr. 48 Firs, $35JHr. proposed schedule $2,720 4,080 3,120 4,680 1,800 IM $18,080 E$ 9.720 > $9,360 This level of services represents 2.4 manhours of inspection per 8 hours of construction. Written notice to proceed with proposed additional services will be required by September 18, 1992, The above quote is based on acceleration dates set forth, Until the. project is back on schedule, similar Increases could be necessary. Prior to September 4, 1992 Kluge & Associates expended t1mr, respond- ing to the finding of contaminated soils.

MOTION: Bryson moved approval of Resolution PZ 92-28, Home Occupation Permit for Bob Cude. Goecke seconded. Bryson said he would like to make sure that the applicant not store any equipment on site, other then the tools indicated on the application, which will be stored in his truck. Graveley directed staff to keep an eye on this development to make sure that: the applicant does not bring mobile homes on site. KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION September 9, 1992 Page 2 Smalley said that a similar development in that area had gotten into trouble because they were manufacturing and fabricating on site. Smalley did not feel that Cude intended to bring mobile homes onto his property, but that he would go to the mobile homes site. Graveley said he appreciated the fact that the applicant had wished to be in conformance with the KMC. VOTE: Bannock: Yes, Graveley: Yes, Bryson: Yes, Goecke: Yes Scott: Yes, Hanson: Yes Motion passed unanimously. b.

Development in TSH Zone: Consiel La Shot reported that the applicant was building an addition onto his house, which would be placed on an existing concrete slab. The building materials will be similar to the house. Scott said she had been by the site and felt that the development was within the context. of the TSH zone requirements. MOTION: Scott moved approval of Development in TSH Zone for Consiel. Bryson seconded. VOTE: Bannock: Yes, Graveley: Yes, Bryson: Yes, Goecke: Yes Scott: Yes, Hanson: Yes d. Development in TSH Zone: Fos.,; Graveley said he had spoken to the applicant who wished to move an existing abandoned building and renovate it into a usable home. Graveley noted that the applicant was i.n the audience to answer questions from the Commission. KENAI PLANNING AND September 9, 1992 Page 3 MOTION: ZONING COMMISSION Scott moved approval of Development in TSH zone Foss. Hanson seconded. Bryson asked what the setbacks of the building would be. Foss answered about 50 feet, so he could put in a nice yard. Scott asked if the lot was on City water and sewer systems? La Shot answered no, the lot would not have access to those systems. Scott asked the applicant if he had received the proper permits from DEC for domestic water and sewer systems. Scott felt that the permits should be obtained before the building was moved, or it would just be sitting on Foss's lot unusable. Foss said he would look into obtaininq those permits. He didn't even have anyone lined up to move the building but he would find someone. VOTE: Bannock: Yes, Graveley: Yes, Bryson: Yes, Goecke: Yes Scott: Yes, Hanson: Yes e. Development in TSH Zone: Poppin Gravely introduced the item and said the applicant had a possible buyer for this property. The buyer might wish to build a cabinet shop on one or more of the lots, the applicant was looking for direction from the Commission whether the cabinet shop would be feasible in the TSH Zone. Hanson said he was a ILittle hesitant to rule on a cabinet shop because often times hazardous materials are used in cabinet making. Scott reported that the TSH Task Force had discussed the possibility of purchasing the area aroL.nd these lots to develop a "heritage village". This "village" would possibly include some of the old buildincls behinca Ft. Kenay and other historic replicas. Scott felt that if there was no huge harry for the applicant she would like mc,�re time to consider this site. Bannock said he felt that this was not, the proper way for the seller of the property to be seeking direction from the Commission. The buyer should submit more details, such as which lots should be used, size of cabinet shop, etc. Bannock said he was not KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION September 9, 1992 Page 4 comfortable giving a decision on this application without more information. MOTION: Bannock moved to send a letter to from P&Z, and inform him that if development he should come before application. Hanson seconded.

PERSONS PRESENT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD 6. PUBLIC HEARINGS 7. NEW BUSINESS a. Ordinance 1513-92: Development of Commercial Tracts La Shot explained that this Ordinance was already introduced to Council. This Ordinance would facilitate phase development for commercial tracts. Traditionally a mall will be developed in segments to help with financing and establish separate ownership. The interior_ lot lines developed create problems with requirements of fire walls and setbacks. This Ordinance would eliminate those interior lot lines which allow for phase construction where they would not have to have special fire walls or conform to setbacks. This would allow malls such as the one being developed now to be built as a contiguous building without the special requirements. Ordinance was modelled after the Municipality of Anchorage's ordinance. MOTION: Bryson moved to recommend to Council approval of Ordinance 1513-92 Development of Commercial Tracts. Goecke seconded. VOTE: Bannock: Yes, Graveley: Yes, Bryson: Yes, Goecke: Yes Scott: Yes, Hanson: Yes KENAI PLANNING AND September 9, 1992 Page 5 8. OLD BUSINESS ZONING COMMISSION a. Resolution PZ 92-26: Rezone - See Harvey explained that she had sent a letter to the applicant informing him of the Commission's previous meeting's action. The Commission felt that a conditional use permit would be appropriate for the commercial use requested until the entire Spur Highway zoning issue could be addressed. There had been no response at packet time since the applicant was in Turkey. Smalley said that the applicant had enhanced the property in recent months and left an adequate buffer on the site, to obscure the proposed activity. Smalley felt the applicant would adhere to any criteria the Commission would require. MOTION: Bryson moved to postpone action on this item for one month (October 7th) to give applicant time to respond to the request for a conditional use permit. Scott seconded. VOTE: Bannock: Yes, Graveley: Yes, Bryson: Yes, Goecke: Yes Scott: Yes, Hanson: Yes 9. CODE ENFORCEMENT ITEMS a. RPM 's A copy of the letter from Cary Graves, City Attorney, had been included for P&Z's information. The letter gave Mellish until September 15th to clean up area. b. Quandt Property Harvey had sent a. letter to Department of Natural Resources requesting information on who was the present lessee of this property. There had been no response by packet deadline. C. Irene's Lodge A letter had been sent requesting the lodge to obtain a conditional use permit for the guide service, which appears to be operating from this site. The present Home Occupation permit does not include a guide service. Hanson said tie was a neighbor of Fandel's and said he had never noted any problem with their operation. KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION September 9, 1992 Page 6 Smalley said the City just needed the business to be in compliance with the KMC. From a legal standpoint everyone must be treated the same way. 10. REPORTS a. City Council Smalley reported that the City picnic was well attended and the Congregate Housing grand opening went well. A work session had been held. prior to the Commission meeting to discuss Capital Improvement Projects. The priorities were: Thompson Park sewer and water interceptor; Expansion of Sewer Treatment Plant; Addition to the Library; and park improvements, ice rink and boat ramp. Scott said :in light of the testimony regarding Cunningham Park at the last P&Z meeting, the Council may want to reevaluate the use of that park some time in the future. b. Borough Planning No meeting had been held since the lash report. C. Townsite Historic Task Force Scott reported that the Task Force had identified three areas to address: Definition of physical boundaries, with the possibility of non-contiguous sites sharing historic designation; define ordinance to include the Certified Local Government and National Historic Landmark programs; and address new developments in the TSH such as, trails, signage, streets, the Heritage Village, etc. The Task Force had requested that a moratorium be placed in the'rSH zone for the next six months. The group set meeting dates for the first and third Thursdays of each month. Scott said she regretfully had to resign from the Task Force as P&Z's representative due to work conflicts. Hanson and Goecke were chosen. to co -represent the Commission on this Task Force, subject to Counc:il's approval. d.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES August 4, 1992 Dorothy McCard noted that the reference to the Kenai Natives Association should be changed to the Russian Orthodox Church on page one. Mayor John Williams asked to give a brief report since he had to leave early to attend another function. The Mayor said he would like to see some of the old buildings from behind Ft. Kenay relocated. He would like to create a setting to display these cabins and some other artifacts and possibly name the area "Heritage village". The Mayor said that lands could be purchased from existing owners and there were sore capital. improvement monies available which could be used for matching grants to facilitate this project- 4. NEW BUSINESS a. Report - Townsite Historic Tour Chairman Arness asked if Task Force members had any questions regarding the tour, which had been taken on August 29th. CITY OF KENAI TOWNSITE HISTORIC TASK FORCE September 3, 1992 Page 2 Roger Meeks asked if there was an easement between the Toyon Apartments and the Green house. He felt that a trail system could be developed in that area for beach access. b. Task: Force Review Schedule The Task Force decided to meet on the first and third Thursdays of the month, with additional meetings as needed. Chairman Arness said he would like to identify general projects for the TSH area. Then the Task Force could recommend areas of improvements to Council. The three areas Arness identified were: 1. Establish physical boundary of TSH zone 2. Redraft or develop new ordinance to apply to the TSH zone. 3. Specific recommendations for projects or alterations to zone. Arness had prepared a Mission Statement for the group (attached). He felt that this would help to set the scope of work the TSHTF wished to accomplish. Arness suggested that the zone might be similar to the zone suggested by P&Z, which was basically the area around the Russian Orthodox Church. Other historically significant sites, such as the Li.l Hakkinen home might be designated as landmarks, and come under the same zoning criteria. Harvey said she felt it was important to look at the Ordinance as soon as possible, there were -three applications for development in the TSH zone scheduled for the next Planning and Zoning meeting. Consiel were adding a living room on their home; Foss wished to relocate the old Juluissen home to his property; and Poppin wished to sell four lots for a possible cabinet shop. It was hard for the Planning staff to direct these people because the zone is "up in the air" so to speak. McCard asked if the Planning and Zoning Commission would support a moratorium in TSH? Scott said that any recommendation should go directly to Council. MOTION AND VOTE: Malston moved to recommend to Council that a moratorium be placed on the TSH zone, with no building permits issued until March 1, 1993. McCune seconded. Passed unanimously. 4.

Respectfully submitted, Loretta Harvey Transcribing Secretary CITY OF KENAI TOWNSITE HISTORIC TASK FORCE MISSION STATEMENT The purpose of the City of Kenai Townsite Historic Task Force (THTF) is to develop specific recommendations to be presented to the City Council of the City of Kenai relating to the proposed area to be included in a Townsite Historic District, a revised Townsite Historic Ordinance, and suggestions for the restoration and enhancement of properties and structures considered to have historic significance. The intent of the THTF is 'to enhance and identify the City of Kenai's heritage. To present this heritage in a manner that promotes civic pride and an awareness of from where we as a people have evolved. The THTF will focus on community improvements including rules and procedures intended to clearly define any proposed development. The intent of these rules and procedures is to provide a basis for what is considered acceptable development or alterations to existing properties :in a manner that can be clearly understood. and also positive in attitude to welcome change. The purpose of the THTF is not to promote any specific industry or enhance the marketing of any product. Our intent is to provide a framework from which private and public interests can create their own goals. The framework is based on specific recommendations as well as a more generalized concept of how the historic portion of the City should be preserved and presented. We feel confident that the efforts of the THTF will have a positive effect toward accomplishing this goaa.

Minutes approved as amended. 4. OLD BUSINESS a. Committee Vacancies McGillivray said that the vacancies had been discussed by Council and there was presently no one interested in serving on Beautification. Sparks felt that the Committee should declare to Council that there were three ✓acancies which needed to be filled. Perhaps an ad could be placed in the paper to get volunteers for these positions. Breeden recommended that the Chamber or Bicentennial Board be approached to have a representative on the Committee. b. City of Kenai Flags McGillivray said that Council had decided to stay with the same flag at this time. Kenai Beautification Committee September 8, 1992 Page 2 C. Flower Boxes Swarner reported that she and Breeden had gone to the Feldman Is home to look at their flower beds. The Feldman's had said they might donate some perennials to the City. Pictures of the flower beds were available for the Committee to get an idea of what types of flowers would be available. Swarner asked if the City would be interested in these flowers. McGillivray said that perennials are the hardest beds to maintain. He also reported that the planting of flower boxes within the city was not feasible for the P&R Department since there was no storage space available for the 52 boxes the city presently uses. Breeden said she felt the Committee should make suggestions as to what kind of flowers would be planted throughout the city, even if the nurseries provided the boxes. Sparks requested that Breeden and other committee members bring suggestions for flowers to the next meeting. Swarner recommended that Warren Larsen, with the Extension Service, be contacted to speak to the Committee about f lowers which would be most suitable for planting in the boxes. Harvey said she would try to contact Ijarsen for the next meeting. 5._ NEW BUSINESS 6.

Present were: Freas; Sue Carter (representing the public); Mike McCune (representing Dragnet Fisheries); Patrick Klier (representing Inlet Salmon); Bob Scott (representing Salamatof Seafoods) was available upstairs in an Airport Commission meeting. Mayor Williams arrived at approximately 7:30 p.m. TASK DETERMINATION To investigate a workable solution for a designated camping area for summer cannery workers. CONCERNS Klier (Inlet Salmon) stated his concern that to be fair, a facility is needed on both sides of the river. Klier added the OSHA problems that may arise, i.e. if furnishing housing, a minimum amount of square footage per person must be provided. This regulation will carry onto tent cities as well. Klier added that if OSHA does :investigate, which they have not as yet, everyone will be checked. Liability problems were a concern. Housing needs are not known from year to year. It depends on the salmon availability. NEEDS OF THE FACILITY Needs proposed for the facility were: Parking lots Restrooms Sewer Water Fire pit areas 16x16 ft. plots Showers (if possible) Contract for camp host for supervising the area. Facility area should have some trees, no brush, more open for better sight. access, better visibility for patrol, etc. Klier stated that Inlet Salmon had a camping area this summer with designated camping sites. A cleaning deposit of $50.00 was -1- collected from each camper. The deposit was returned when the camper left the area if it was cleaned. Inlet Salmon also provided fire wood for their campers. McCune stated another suggestion as a weekly fee of $10.00. The cannery could offer to pay the weekly fee as an incentive for the good workers to stay and work all summer. McCune stated that on the Cannery Road side, he felt the citizenry would prefer an organized camping area instead of unorganized and have them run amuck. SUGGESTIONS Write to Mary Miller and Mr. Duthweiller, owners of property on the Inlet Salmon side of the river, to be included in the Task Force. Contact Cook Inlet Processing to be involved in the discussions. The City could offer incentives to the canneries, i.e. provide sales tax reductions. Williams stated that would not be possible, as a tax incentive would have to be offered to all types of businesses. McCune suggested a tax credit. Contact City of' Homer and get information regarding their cannery camping area and how it is supervised, etc. Contact City of Seward for similar information.

FROM: Kim Howard, Administrative Assistant DATE: September 11, 1992 RE: Larry Powers Lease - Tract C, Kenai Tidelands No. 2 Larry Powers has submitted the attached letter requesting approval of a sublease to Cook Inlet Processing. I am attaching a map of the area and memorandums to the file regarding my conversations with him on this matter. His lease states: 3. Assignment or Subletting: Lessee with City's prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably denied, may assign, in whole or in part, its rights as Lessee hereunder. Any assignee of part or all of the leased premises shall assume the duties and obligations of the Lessee as to such part or all of the leased premises. No such assignment, however, will discharge Lessee from its duties and obligations hereunder. I left a message for Mr. Powers at 10:00 a.m. today that we had not received a copy of the sublease. He evidently was on his way to Anchorage. About 11:00 a.m., Pat with Cook Inlet Processing called me. Pat said they wanted an Assignment of Lease rather than a Sublease. I faxed her a sample assignment and she faxed me the attached, proposed assignment. At the time of the packet deadline, it is unclear whether the parties wish to have a sublease or an assignment of lease. I anticipate that their request will be more clear by the night of the Council meeting. Also, I told. Pat that the lease states the request will not be unreasonably be denied. However, I told her that the Kenai Peninsula Borouqh has not received payment for 1992 property taxes on this property. The amount due now is $145.65.

He wished to deliver a letter to the City Clerk for the Council. Carol referred him to me. He gave me the letter. I asked him if he had a copy of the sublease as backup. He said it was already done, that "they" had already purchased his dock, and the attorney in Anchorage was going to fax the sublease to us. I told him that we hadn't received it. I told him that the City Attorney should look at it and it needed to be approved by the Council. I told him that the City Council didn't like to be handed things out at the meeting and that we should have it in the packet. Carol told him that it would need to be here by noon tomorrow in order to get in the packet. Carol asked what his attorney's name in Anchorage was so that we could contact him if we hadn't received it. I said no, Powers should check back with me to make sure it had been received. I felt as though it was something that he should provide to us, not something we should be chasing after for him. Carol also asked him if the backup was not received, was it something that could go in the following packet? Powers said no, that if it wasn't on the agenda he would personally beg each Councilperson to approve it. I told him Council would need to take action in a meeting. I told him that normally the Council sees the agreement before it is signed. He then told me that it hadn't been signed. I told him I would ask the City Attorney to look at his request and we would schedule it for approval on the agenda. I told him again that we would need a copy of the sublease by noon, on Friday, to be included in the packet.. /kh I x TO: File FROM: Kim Howard, DATE: September 2, RE: Larry Powers :MEMORANDUM Administrative Assistant 1992 Lease Today about 3:30 p.m., Larry Powers came into the office and spoke with me. He said he sold his dock to Cook Inlet Processing. He said he leased two lots in Kristine Subdivision (uplands and not owned by the City) and was subleasing one to Cook Inlet Processing. He said he wished to sublease a portion of the property he is leasing from the City (the tidelands) to Cook Inlet Processing. He said then he was going to lease space from the City at the City dock. I pulled his lease and reviewed Covenant 3 (Assignment or Subletting) with him. I asked him to provide us with a letter, explaining what he wanted to do. I made a copy of Kenai Tidelands Survey No. 2 for him and asked him to indicate on the map which area he wanted to sublease and return it with his letter. I clarified with him that he did not wish to subdivide the lot, only sublease it. I told him that the next Council meeting is September 16. I asked him to have his request in writing to me by September 10. I told him that I would ask the City Attorney to review it and providing there were no major problems,, we would schedule it for the agenda on packet day. I told him if the sublease was approved by the Council, he would get a consent to sublease document from the City or a letter from the City Manager saying it was okay to sublease. He also said that Cook Inlet Processing wanted a letter from the City saying that we would allow them to sublease. I told him that if the City Council approved his sublease, Cook Inlet Processing would be subject to the same lease as he, and therefore any sublease proposed by them would need prior written consent. I told him I would discuss this situation with the City Attorney. I told him I would call him if there were any changes to our discussion. cc: Cary Graves, City Attorney Charles Brown, Acting City Manager /kh 1791-1991 CITY OF KENA 210 FIDALGO KENAI, ALASKA 99611 TELEPHONE 283 - 7535 FAX 907-283-3014 MEMORANDUM TO: Council Members City of Kenai FROM: Carol L.

Freas, City Clerk City of Kenai DATE: September 11, 1992 RE: ALASKA MAPPING SYSTEMS/TOM LOZNY This afternoon Mr. Luzny came to City Hall to speak with me. Luzny stated that he had just met with Mayor Williams and that the Mayor suggested he speak to me to be placed on the agenda for the September 16, 1992 meeting. I stated to Mr. Lunzy that he was too late to be placed on the agenda at Persons Scheduled to be Heard as the packets were already copied. However, he could speak to Council at Item J-1, Persons Present Not Scheduled to be Heard. Luzny stated that would be fine. Lunzy stated that he wants to find out if the Council is going through with purchasing 50 copies of his mapping book. Luzny stated that he would, after getting an answer, go to the Borough and work out either a payment plan for monies he owes, or will pay them the total amount owed. I stated to Mr. Luzny that at the last meeting he attended, the Council had motioned that they would purchase 50 copies of the book, without the copyright, contingent upon his taxes being current. I also stated to him that the minutes state that errors were found in the books and that pages were out of order. Luzny stated that he would be sure the pages were correct, but that. any addresses incorrect in the book would not be corrected. I asked Luzny if the books he may be selling to the City were already printed. He stated yes. I told Lunzy that he should bring three or four copies of the books to me on Monday morning in order that someone from Public Works, the Fire Department and Police Department will have time to review them prior to the :meeting. I stated to Luzny that no one from Administration had the opportunity to review the books prior to his speaking to Council last November. Luzny asked if he should get written :statements from the Fire Department and Police Department that . they were wanting the books. I stated th,_at a representativefrom those Departments were normally present at the council meetings and they could speak to it at that time. -1- I have discussed this matter with Acting City Manager Brown. Charlie stated that it would be inappropriate for the City to purchase any books (50 x $35 = $1,750) if they are incorrect or not useful to the Department:. Charlie's recommendation is to allow time for City departments to review the books and then buy only the quantity requested by the departments. Attached is backup information from my files and from the minutes relative to Luzny's request. clf -2- MEMORANDUM TO: John J. Williams, Mayor City of Kenai FROM: Carol L.

Luzny came to my desk on last week and asked what the Council wanted to do about ordering his mapping books. Luzny stated that he had been out-of-state, but that he was back for a few days and would be leaving again. I told Mr. Luzny that as I remembered it, the Council made a motion to order 50 copies of the books, but did not want to purchase the copyright. Also, the sale was dependent upon his being current with any Borough taxes he may owe. Luzny asked what he should do in :regard to the City purchasing the books. I suggested that he speak to Council at "Persons Not Scheduled to be Heard" at tonight's meeting. I have attached a copy, of the minutes from November 20, 1991 when Mr. Luzny last spoke to the Council. I am not aware of whether Mr. Luzny has made the corrections to the books that Council mentioned during that meeting. Today, at 2:20 p.m., I spoke with Linda at the Borough.

Neighbors Reaching Out To Neighbors That is the motto of the Kenai Peninsula Food Bank, Inc. In communities throughout the peninsula, there are families and individuals who for a number of reasons find themselves without food and morn;y. It is our belief that the people have a basic right to freedom from hunger. The Kenai Peninsula Food Bank, Inc is a centralized nonprofit clearing house that gathers, stores, and distributes surplus food to charitable feeding programs throughout our communities. In the last year 500,000 pounds of food was distributed in communities from Seward to Homer, Nikiski to Ninilchik, and Kenai to Soldotna. Over 3 000 people monthly benefited from this cooperative effort. The facility in Soldotna has become too small for the demand. Through the efforts of the board and staff of the Food Bank we were able to get a lease on some BoroL;Ih land at $1.00 a year. It is our goal to build a building to help us to serve the needs of our neighbors We are asking your assistance in don.iting money to the building fund in order that we can continue to reach out and help our neighbors. The Kenai Peninsula Food Bank, Inc. is raising funds by offering sponsors for each "Square Foot" of the building for $25.00. In recognition of your contribution, you wil receive a certificate suitible for framing. Yesl I want to help my neighbor I WT sponsor __.

A Letter From United Way Last month the Kenai Peninsula United Way distributed twenty six separate grants to the crisis intervention, family service and youth leadership non-profit agencies of the Kenai Peninsula. With an avera ,e ,grant size of S13,000 and four grants in excess of twenty thousand dollars it is easy to see why this year's theme is: Your United Way ... Helping Where Help is Needed Most. It is easy sometimes to forget how important these non -profits are 11> the economy, social fabric and quality of life in our communities. Nu;e Of our United Way agencies are located within the All -American City of Kenai, and their annual budgets are in excess of 4.6 Million dollars. healthy and active non-profit sector is important to everyone in our community. But Federal and State dollars are shrinking and this is where the business community, the non-profit sector and local service organisations have to join together and make it happen for those in need. Charlie Pierce of Enstar has been chosen as Campaign Chair for 1992. The annual six week fund drive will begin on September 28. A;i exciting Kick -Off is being planned. Volunteers are needed to help in planning, organising and participating in this Peninsula -wide team e' teark. We; face a trough challenge this year. Bad national press and a faltering economy are very real hurdles on the way to our goal. We need to get the real message out that our local United Way is simply a dedicated group of volunteers who want a mechanism to respond to th,r immediate problems of the truly in need in our community. For the past six years our volunteers have taken up the task to the tune of over two million dollars. By minimising overhead, mandating total community involvement in the distribute:on of the grant awards, and ensuring accountability through an a;;nual review process our volunteers can proudly put our local non-p:-ofit agencies forward in a single unified effort once each Fall as a choice for everyone's charitable dollars. Becoming involved with the United Way Drive can be personally gratit'ving.. life enhancing and annually addictive behaviour. Should yoi; wi�;h to become involved, c:�tll 262-3200 during normal office hours an-] dis�u� s your potential involvement and expertise with our staff.

Rozak will pay the City Airport Fund $2.00/CY for sand he will use on the Kenai Courthouse.

I am asking you to join in this challenge to reduce waste at the source of generation and through recycling. The enclosed grant information package summarizes eligible projects, funding, and proposal content for applications which are due on or before November 29, 1992. For additional information on this grant program, contact David Wigglesworth, Chief of the Pollution Prevention Office at (907) 465-5275. Thank you for your interest in preventing pollution. Sincerely, �ASandorL Jo n Commissioner JAS/DW/cg (CO-comm`,hzmatch.5' Enclosure: Hazardous Waste Reduction Matching Grants Program Application Packet printed on recycled paper t y C.0 HAZARDOUS WASTE REDUCTION MATCHING GRANTS PROGRAM APPLICATION PACKET The State of Alaska is challenging businesses to identify and use pollution prevention techniques. To accomplish this challenge, financial assistance in the form of matching grants is available to businesses, trade associations, local government, labor organizations, and not -for -profit organizations. This grant program is being initiated pursuant to AS 46.03.317. Purpose This grant program is designed to help businesses develop and put in place programs to prevent, minimize, recycle, or eliminate pollution that may enter the air, land, and waters of the state. The matching grant program is administered by the DEC Pollution Prevention Office. Eli ibilit Only projects which address pollution prevention through source reduction or recyclin are eligible. Projects which address treatment or disposal of waste after generation will not be considered. Proposed projects will be accepted for review from businesses, manufacturing firms, trade associations, local government, labor organizations, and not -for -profit organizations. Trade associations include any organization which represents a specific group of Alaska industries. Businesses and rnanufacturing plants at which the project(s) are conducted must be located in Alaska. Proiect Preference Preference will be given to proposals which focus on reducing pesticide wastes, eliminating pollution from entering public drinking water sources, reducing priority hazardous air pollutants (including ammonia, benzene, and chloroform) and reducing non -point source pollution. However, any potential sponsor who has a source reduction or recycling project. is encouraged to participate. Projects that focus on waste treatment and disposal will not be considered. Eliaible Proiec_rS Proposed protects must cover the feasibility of applying specific methods or technologies which prevent pollution or minimize waste volumes of specific waste streams. Potential projects can range from the characterization of waste streams as a means to identir✓ pollution prevention techniques, to in -plant pilot -scale studies of reduction techroloaies. Other examples of possible project include: Projects ./ill t)e considered which identify, evaluate, and implement reduction tecr,niq jes sL.,ch as inventory con-rol, improved operating practice. cn mical s�al)-3tituticns, use of less/nonhazardous raw materia:s, improved production; process modifications, and in -plant recycling and reuse. V`, rite reductions audits and tench or pilot scale project, ,lay be eligihle Industry -wide applications of the above projects and other such as: survey of waste streams generated by member firms, evaluation of applicable source reduction or recycling technologies, demonstration projects, and development/distribution of technical materials on pollution prevention techniques; reducing ammonia releases from fish processing activities through process redesign and/or preventive maintenance activities. reducing pesticide waste through residue recycling projects, or using integrated pest management practices instead of pesticides; preventing non -point source pollution by identifying and reducing sources of urban runoff that contribute to such pollution; • developing wellhead protection programs that incorporate source reduction practices to prevent groundwater contamination; • evaluating new tank designs or automated flow control systems to prevent chemical leaks and spills; • designing programs to prevent pollution caused by motor vehicles including analysis of alternative fuels, carpooling programs, alternative transportation systems, and activities that encourage battery and anti -freeze recycling, and scrap metal recycling programs. Funding and Timing Approved projects will receive grant support on a basis up to $10,000. Applicants must provide a "dollar -for -dollar" matching contribution in cash or in -kind contributions such as staff salary, equipment, laboratory analysis, or consultant's time. Costs for rental of pilot -scale equipment eligible to conduct analysis and feasibility of waste reduction techniques are eligible. Costs for testing, analyzing, and evaluating the waste reduction technique or methodology are fully eligible. Grant funds cannot be used to purchase g ui ment In general, projects should be started and completed within six to eight months from the award of the grant. A final report to evaluate technical and economic aspects of the waste reduction project will be required within one month after the project completion. Other details will be specified in individual project grant agreements. -2- Proposals must be received by November 29, 1992.
