Assemblyman Torgerson states at the bottom of his letter Resolution No. 93-111 will become effective after it is "presented and passed, in resolution form, by all the municipalities that wish to be involved in this dues structure payment schedule." You will remember, the AML fee schedule has been discussed twice at council meetings. The first time, during your meeting of September 1, 1993. Action taken: Directive to send a letter to AML stating the City's approval of the concept of the weighted vote and strong disagreement of the AML Board of Director's" proposed fee schedule. The second time, Mr. Torgerson spoke to Council during your September 15, 1993 meeting and discussed his proposed alternate fee schedule. No action was taken by Council approving the alternate fee schedule or disapproving it. DOES KENAI CITY COUNCIL WISH TO SUPPORT THE ASSEMBLYMAN TORGERSON'S ALTERNATE PAY SCHEDULE?

You will note that the Kenai Borough has paid the dues for all the Municipalities within It's boundaries, since the League was formed. This was an optional payment plan, that this Borough felt It should do, to insure that all the Municipalities that wanted to, could pay the service fee, and be a full member of the Alaska Municipal League. At It's August meeting, the League was requested to come up with a self pay system so that all municipalities across the State, would be on the same self pay system, at the same rate. As it turned out, this dues system was adopted, and it was declared to be mandatory. As you can tell by the attached, this change does impact your City's budget, and without the Borough paying a portion, the impact is considerable more. I have requested that this issue be heard at the Assembly meeting of October 12th, 1993. In order for this resolution to become effective, it must be presented and passed, in resolution form, by all the municipalities that wish to be involved in this dues structure payment schedule. After approval by all councils, and the Assembly, we must ask for an exemption from the mandatory provision that was adopted by the League.

This analysis is based on the assumption that dues and populations would remain the some, and changes in population or dues structure Would cause a change in the dues. The Kenai Peninsula Borough is asking that the Board of AML adopt a rate structure that produces approximately these figures, if dues rates and population remain static.

Borut Dear Mayor: I have enclosed an information kit to assist you -in taking a leadership role on National Unfunded Mandates Day, October 27, 1993. Your active participation in this nationwide effort to educate citizens and members of Congress about the tremendous financial and administrative burdens of unfunded federal mandates is essential, both on October 27 and during the coming months. The information kit contains basic information to help you draw attention to this issue in your community and with your Congressional delegation. I urge you to take the following steps during the coming weeks and on October 27: (1) Adopt the enclosed resolution on unfunded mandates at a governing body meeting before October 27. (2) Personalize the enclosed news release and send it to your local and regional media before October 27. (3) Provide an example of at least one federal mandate that has had a significant impact on local operations in your community and send a desorption of that mandate to NLC headquarters by October 13. Your summary should include a general description of the specific federal requirement, an estimate of the cost to your community, and a brief description of the impact this mandate has had on your community. We will use these examples in Nation's Cities - Weekly and in national reports about the negative impact of unfunded mandates on local governments. (4) Conduct a press conference or information briefing on October 27 to announce your community's plans to participate in the national campaign to end mandates as we know them and change the way the federal government implements national (over) OCTOBER 27, 1993 CAUTIis 11 CAUTION MANDATMAM01►TES 7)National Unfunded Mandates Day ""7/ Mayor September 27, 1993 Page Two policies affecting local governments. We urge you to include all members of your governing body in this briefing, along with county officials, school board officials, and business leaders who share your concerns about the impact of unfunded federal mandates on local priorities and local budgets. The information kit includes a proposed statement that you can use at your press conference that day. (5) _Personalize and fax the enclosed letter to members of your Congressional delegation along with a copy of your adopted resolution on October 27. Simultaneous faxes to Congress on October 27 will make it clear to national leaders that this issue is a significant concern to local leaders throughout the country. Please notify your State Municipal League of your plans on October 27 so that they are aware of activities throughout the state. In addition to the specific events on October 27, we are planning follow-up activities in Washington to work closely with national leaders to produce results from this effort. There will also be a track of sessions focusing on mandates at the Congress of Cities in Orlando, December 2-5. While your participation in National Unfunded Mandates Day is an important starting point for this effort, it is equally important that we maintain momentum beyond that day in order to achieve long-term change. It will not happen overnight, but it will happen if we continue to work together. Thank you for your commitment and support. Sincerely, Donald M. Fraser President Mayor, Minneapolis Model Mandates Fax Letter October 27, 1993 The Honorable U.S. Senate/House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20510/20515 Dear Senator/Representative: We are writing on behalf of the citizens and taxpayers of our city to ask you to act to reduce current unfunded federal mandate burdens and to urge your action to force change :in the way the federal government considers future mandates. :» The cumulative impact of federal legislative and regulatory requirements to perform duties without consideration of local circumstances, costs, or capacity, or be subject to cWH or criminal penalties for noncompliance directly affects the citizens of our cities and terns, Federal -mandates require ,7ompliance regardless of other pressing local needs and p. ioritiesaffese=1 g the health, welfare, and ,fety of our citizens, forcing a combination of higher'kycal-Mes iii&fees and reduced local services. Too often federal rules and regulations are inflexible, one -size -fits -all requirements that impose unrealistic time frames and specify procedures orfaeilides-where less costly alternatives might be just as effective. It is time for that to change. Today we are beginning a public education campaign in our city about what federal mandates are and what they mean to our mutual constituents. Nx'e intend to make clear the real costs that are passed on to our city. »><: We want you to take a leadership role in turning back the tide. Enclosed is a copy of a resolution on federal mandates adopted by our governing body. We would like to report that Congress will act to reduce stormwater and drinking water mandates before this session adjourns. We would like to report that no future law or regulation will be imposed without close consultation with local leaders and without the federal government picking up its share of any costs. We will make progress reports to our council and our community about what you are or are not doing to help us. So please join our campaign to end unfunded federal mandates and to reintroduce government as a partnership to serve our citizens. Sincerely, - -..- YY fit) 'i �F' •)'�;1'7Z ..F.R _ - N. ' - I - _ Sample News Release on Unfunded Mandates Day Leaders (or your title and name) of (your community) announced today (their, his, her) intention to support and participate in a nationwide campaign to break Washington's habit of making local governments pay the cost of expensive and intrusive federal programs, commonly referred to as "unfunded mandates." October 27th will be observed as "National Unfunded Mandates Day" in cities, counties, towns and villages across the United States through a coordinated joint effort organized by the National League of Cities, state municipal leagues and several other public interest groups representing local governments. The term "unfunded federal mandate" describes actions taken in Washington that impose, but do not pay for, a costly program or requirement that local governments are directed to carry out. For cities and towns, unfunded federal mandates have become an increasingly difficult and intrusive problem. Along with the growing financial burden of their costs, they also have the effect of distorting local priorities by diverting resources that might have been assigned to other community needs. "We want to make it clear that we usually have no quarrel with the intentions of laws enacted by Congress -- such as assuring a healthful environment and enabling people with disabilities to participate fully in our society," said ( title and name ). "What concerns us is that the costs and tasks of these good intentions are all too often left for us to pay for and carry out. Adding to our frustration is the fact that these programs, enacted by distant lawmakers in Washington, can lay claim to our local tax funds ahead of the needs and priorities of the people who elected us to address those needs," said ( title and name )• ( if you have any specific intentions to convene a special council hearing, town meeting, news event, etc., in October, it might be mentioned here. ) ( over ) Some mandates, especially in the environmental area, constitute an enormous burden by themselves. Many others may seem modest by themselves, but taken together, their total costs, along with time-consuming regulations and paperwork, are choking the limited resources of local governments. ( Cite example(s) from your community or region, if possible. ) The events in October will mark the official beginning of an ongoing campaign by the National League of Cities to build a grassroots awareness and understanding of the ways that unfunded mandates encroach on local decisionmaking and local revenue systems. "We believe that the elected leaders and professional administrators of our cities and towns can play an essential role in helping local citizens and taxpayers learn first-hand about the ways that unfunded mandates can affect their community," said Donald J. Borut, NLC executive director. "That first-hand perspective is what will explain this difficult issue best." In addition to increasing public awareness of unfunded mandates, the events in October also will serve as a catalyst to initiate actions in Congress to reimburse local governments for federal mandates, or to provide relief from their excessive burden. "Washington must begin to tackle its budget problems, just as our community and other cities have been doing for years," said ( title and name J. "This is no time for Washington to think it should solve its problems by passing their cost on to us." Work on current and pending legislation already is underway, and the organizations representing local governments also are involved in seeking institutional reforms to the federal regulatory process. Those initiatives would provide local governments a stronger voice in the development of rules, procedures and compliance deadlines drawn up by federal agencies. Sample Press Conference Statement on Mandates We are announcing today that our community is joining a nationwide grassroots campaign -- led by the National League of Cities and other public interest groups -- to break Washington's habit of making local governments pay the cost of expensive and intrusive federal programs. These programs, often referred to as "unfunded federal mandates," have become one of the single largest financial burdens on our nation's cities and towns. The increasing number of federal mandates has forced local governments everywhere to raise taxes, increase utility bills, cut services and shift resources away from local priorities. Over the past few years, the number of mandates has increased substantially while funding from Washington has decreased dramatically. At the same time, the federal government is actively pursuing enforcement actions -- with fines and penalties -- to tighten compliance with these unfunded mandates. Americans ignited a revolution over "taxation without representation." Unfunded mandates are "spending without representation," and we don't like them any better. They are a hidden tax on everyone who lives in our city. We are getting a checklist but no check. It's like the fine print on so many kid's toys -- "Batteries -not-included." - - -- - All across America, in big cities and small towns, local officials everywhere -- Democrats, Republicans and Independents -- are rising up to say, "Enough is enoughl" - Cite example(s) from your community or region. J ( over) No city can realistically afford to fund all the pending federal requirements within the foreseeable future, let alone within the timetables legislated by the lawmakers in Washington. When there was a strong federal -local partnership to help pay the costs af-federally imposed mandates, --our nation made great_ -progress in_ meeting national goals and objectives. This partnership has broken down, however. It has been replaced by dictates from Washington -- often in a "one -size -fits -all" approach that refuses to consider local conditions or capacity. We need to change this irresponsible habit. We feel that if the same people who write the laws and draft the regulations have to pay for them, they will be much more careful about the costs. When federal standards are established, we believe the federal government must assure that local governments have adequate capacity and time to achieve those standards. Here in our community, we do support the broad national goals laid out in many of the important laws enacted in Washington. We don't support the "my way, but you pay" approach that has come to characterize federal policy actions. What we need now is to work together to achieve these shared objectives. We must put a stop to unfunded mandates, and we call upon all of the citizens in our community to join in this campaign.

WHEREAS, by KMC 16.10.070, the City Council has the authority to determine the percentage of costs to be assessed in special assessment districts; and WHEREAS, reduced State financing for public improvement projects makes it necessary that more costs be assessed to benefited properties; and WHEREAS, citizens desiring to form assessment districts have a need to know in advance of the petitioning process the portion of the project that is likely to be assessed. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, that: Section 1: The policy of the City Council regarding percentages of costs to be assessed in special assessment districts.is a general rule. It is meant to inform the City administration and citizens of a usual rule to be followed, and it applies to all types of improvements. The Council reserves the right to apply percentages different from those that follow based upon unique characteristics of each project. It is not implied that the Council must form an assessment district with each project. The policy is subject to all State, City Charter, and City Municipal Code requirements and restrictions. Section 2: In developed areas that include numerous property owners, each benefiting somewhat equally, the assessment rate will be 25% of all eligible costs. The Council intends that all eligible costs include the entire project costs defined by KMC 16.05.090. Section 3: In partially developed or undeveloped areas that include one or a small number of property owners, the assessment rate will be 100% of all eligible costs. This is the rate that will apply in situations where the owner or owners are essentially acting as developers, with the intent of marketing and profiting from the developed land. The owners may have to waive the limitations placed on assessments, as provided by KMC 16.05.010(b) and Section 7-3 of the City Charter. In addition, the City may require cash or other assets to be advanced or pledged to the City as security that the assessments will be paid. Generally, the unsecured portion of the assessments should not exceed 30% of the cost of the improvements. The City may require that the owner or owners enter into a contractual relationship with the City to ensure payment of the assessments.

(907) 842-5140 FAX (907) 443-2409 Dear Municipal Official: The Shared Fisheries Business Tax Program is a new program created by the Legislature in 1991. The purpose of this program is to provide for a sharing of state fish tax collected outside municipal boundaries with municipalities that have been effected by fishing industry activities. This is the first year for this program. Municipalities around the state will share approximately $675,500 based on 1992 fisheries activity as reported by fish processors on their fish tax returns. The law that created this program requires that program funding be first allocated to fisheries management areas around the state based on the level of fish processing in each area compared to the total fish processing for the whole state. Then the funding is further allocated among the municipalities located within each fisheries management area based on the relative level of impacts experienced by each municipality. Details of how the program works are presented in the application under Program Description. Your community is located in the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area. The municipalities located in this area include Homer, Kachemak, Kenai, Seldovia, Seward, Soldotna, the Municipality of Anchorage and the Kenai Peninsula Borough. The FY 94 program allocation to be shared within this area is approximately $32,500. In fisheries management areas where the program allocation is less than $50,000, program regulations provide for a "short -form" application. This is the situation in your area and you are therefore receiving She attached Short Form Application. We encourage your municipality to complete the FY 94 Shared Fisheries Business Tax Application as soon as possible. FINAL DEADLINE for submissions of applications is December 15,1993. If you have any questions about the program, or require assistance in completing the application, please call me at 465-4751 or Bill Rolfzen at 465-4733.

The proposal of the apparent low bidder, Glacier Environmental, appears to be complete. At this point, I would tentatively recommend that the project be awarded to them. The City Engineer concurs with this recommendation. I am still in the process of verifying references. I will let you know by Tuesday if any information given by the references changes my recommendation. Some things to be aware of: 1. This soil is going to follow us around forever if it is not cleaned up properly. Neither bioremediation nor soil -washing has quite as good a track record as thermoremediation. However, the thermoremediation bid was quite a bit higher than either of these methods. 2. The City will still be considered the responsible party until, and even after the soil has been released for final disposal. Any problems with the workplan, Contractor, or cleanup level will be addessed to us. 3. None of these contractors likely to start work this year. All of them propose to be finished by September 1, 1994. If council chooses not to Award the project to any of these bidders, I will start work on the next three: Tuboscope Vetco, Inc. - soil washing Soil Services Inc. - thermoremediation Alaska Roadbuilders - thermoremediation to asphalt Let me know if you have any questions. Glacier Environmental Mukilteo, Washington Bid: $425,015.00 Method: Segregation/Soil Washing Work Plan: Proposes to segregate the soil on -site into 20 cy piles and test. Piles that test below the clean-up level will be disposed of (no specific location for disposal is included), piles above the clean-up level will be chemically washed on -site. After confirmation testing, the cleaned soil will be disposed in an ADEC approved location. Wash water will be recycled and treated. Schedule: Approximately 2 months for a bench scale study, 2 weeks for segregation, and 2 months for washing. Total with disposal is approximately 5 months. QAPP: yes. Experience: Extensive in Washington, limited in Alaska. Largest Project - 20,000 cy (transportation, excavation), 3,000 cy for remediation. Largest Alaska project $100,000.00 Other: One regulatory agency said that this Contractor began a project prior to receiving approval from ADEC. One reference said that they had never known this Contractor to have a problem with regulators. This Contractor has never submitted a workplan for review in Alaska. Bid Clarification: On item #9 of the Bid Proposal, this Contractor wrote the words °fifteen dollars even" under the unit price, but wrote the numbers 115,000.00" under the Total Bid Price. According to Bid Specs, discrepancies between words and numbers are resolved in favor of words. The contractor has stated that he will not declare a mistake on this item, and will accept a bid price of $15.00. His Total Bid was recalculated from $440,000.00 to $425,015.00. Fertech Enviro Systems, Inc. Moberly, Missouri Bid: $430,000.00 Method: Enhanced bioremediation Work Plan: A bioremediation cell will be constructed off -site, and contaminated soil (both above and below ground) will be transported there for treatment. After confirmation testing, contaminated soils will be landfilled by Arctech Services. Schedule: 3-4 months for remediation. (ADEC suggests that this would be unrealistic for a non -enhanced bioremediation) QAPP: This Contractor does not currently have an approved QAPP, nor was the ability to get one mentioned in their submittal (as requested in the Bid Specs). They have told me verbally that they are in the process of getting one. Experience: No work has been performed in Alaska. Largest project to date is 2000 cy. Largest cost $56,000. Other: This Contractor mistakenly identified himself as responsible for testing and analysis. This is not allowed per ADEC regulations. An independent third party must do confirmation testing and analysis. No testing for Diesel Range Organics was identified (the primary contaminant in this soil). Offsite remediation could require public notice by ADEC. Have not had a workplan approved by ADEC yet, are in the process of having one reviewed. As of yet, no bioremediation project has ever been bonded in the State of Alaska, however, this Contractor has assured me verbally that he will be able to get one. Sound Environmental Anchorage, Alaska Bid: $608,145.00 Method: Chemical Stabilization Work Plan: The contaminated soil (both above ground and below) will be chemically treated on -site to a clay -like mixture. The mixture would be transported to the Kenai Municipal Airport or other approved site and spread out on prepared subgrade, and capped to form a parking lot and airplane tie - down. The bidder estimates he will be able to cover approximately 90,000 square feet of surface, the City Engineer estimates the equivalent paved area would be worth a maximum of $100,000.00. Schedule: Approximately 3-4 months from start to final disposal. QAPP: yes - by third party Experience: Extensive experience in Alaska. Largest project listed in Alaska - 6,500 cy. Largest cost for remediation in Alaska is 2.OM. Other: The Bid Specs did not make City property available for disposal in this manner. Similar (but not identical) workplans have been previously approved for this Contractor by ADEC. Bid Clarification: On item #12 of the Bid Proposal, this Contractor wrote the words "forty-eight and 41/100" under unit cost, for a Total Bid Price of $48.41. He did not multiply the unit cost by the quantity, 3000 cy. The actual Total Bid Price for this item is $145,230.00. His Total Bid was recalculated from $462,963.41 to $608,145.00. -0 C/KENA WI-1 KENAI PENINSULA BOROUGI 144 N. BINKLEY . SOLDOTNA.

STAFF REPORT La Shot stated that Mr. Butler wants to refurbish the interior and exterior of the Kenai Texaco station. The automotive service department will be turned into a convenience store and the gas pumps will remain in place. Bryson asked for comment from Butler. Butler stated that he would like to clarify that Kenai Texaco will now be known as Butler's Texaco. He stated that the metal panels on the outside of the building will be removed and replaced with the new Texaco design. The building will have a light metal skin; the three auto bays will be framed up and glass will be installed; the auto equipment will be removed and replaced with convenience store items. (Butler passed around a picture of a similar store.) There will be some reconstruction of the walls. A wheelchair accessible, unisex restroom will replace the two that are there now. Butler stated there is a professional crew that does this type of remodel all over the state and he expects this crew to be here toward the end of October. The inside remodel will take approximately 60 to 80 days. Butler stated the plumbing will remain the same and the drains from the old auto bays will not be used; they will be blocked off. KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION Meeting - October 13, 1993 Minutes Page 3 Bryson asked for questions from the Commission. Glick referred to Butler's request for removal of some trees and asked for clarification of which trees he is talking about. Butler replied this is just a request for removal of the trees. (Butler passed around a picture of the trees in question.) Butler stated the location of the trees is along the Spur Highway by the driveway. He added the trees are too big, he would like to remove them and replace them with some new, smaller ones this spring and re -landscape the area. Butler stated he spoke to Mayor Williams about the trees and asked if the City Parks and Recreation department might be interested in them. Glick asked if the trees are on Butler's property or in the right-of-way. Butler stated the trees are in the right-of-way. Butler added he wants to move the trees so that his business can be seen from the road. He will landscape the area this spring so that it looks nice. Glick asked Butler when he plans to move the trees. Butler stated he would like to trim the trees for the winter and move them this spring. He stated he does not want to damage the trees in case the City, or someone else, wants to replant them. Glick referred to the staff's recommendation of more parking on the west side. Butler pointed out he has eleven (11) customer parking places planned with employee parking in the back. He stated he plans to use D1 in the back for employee parking and also to landscape around the area. Butler stated the backside of the building will look nice so people coming from the airport will not have an eyesore to look at. He added he will stripe the parking and install bumpers for parking. Butler said if the Commission wants more parking there he will do it, but if he has even eleven customers parked there all day long he'll be filthy rich. Bryson referred to the ingress/egress area indicated on the east side of the building and stated it may be in trespass. Butler said the property line is the dotted line on the drawing and you can drive through there although he does not propose to use it. He added that the neighboring building has its trash container there and he plans to put his trash container there also so it will not be seen from the road. Bryson asked for action from the Commission. MOTION Goecke MOVED FOR APPROVAL of the Site Plan as proposed. Bannock SECONDED. Bryson asked Smalley if the park across the highway would be able to use the trees KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION Meeting - October 13, 1993 Minutes Page 4 Bryson asked Smalley if the park across the highway would be able to use the trees Butler proposes to move. Smalley stated the Parks and Rec. department is interested in the trees but now is not a good time to move them. He added that a place will be found for the trees.

Goecke SECONDED. Bannock asked if the City has an interest in whether or not M.J. Grimm and R.J. Johnson are going to change the original use of the business. Bannock clarified himself to ask if the leased property can still only be used for the purpose for which the lease was originally written. La Shot referred to the Assignment of the Lease and read "the Assignees agree to comply fully with all the terms and provisions of the Lease." Bannock stated that the only thing changing is the responsibility of the lease and any actions that were changed on the lease would require another motion. La Shot stated that was correct. Bryson, hearing no objection, MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. 7. OLD BUSINESS None 8. CODE ENFORCEMENT ITEMS None 9. REPORTS a. City Council - Hal Smalley Smalley stated that Council dealt with the changes in the T.S.H. ordinance. He said one of the changes will allow the Planning and Zoning Commission to permit a structure larger than 2500 sq. ft. into this zone. He added that principal uses in the land use table were amended to allow for theaters in the zone as a conditional use. Smalley stated there was a lot of discussion regarding the approval of the proposed maps. He stated the map approved was the Townsite Historic Task Force's second map. Smalley stated some of the concerns of the Council and Task Force. Smalley stated the City does have the application for preservation grant money. Smalley stated the grant request for money for the fire truck has passed and the grant request for water quality is under review. Smalley added that the Eicholtz/Pitts extension approved by Planning and Zoning was also approved by Council. KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION Meeting - October 13, 1993 Minutes Page 7 Smalley mentioned the water samples taken at the test well. He stated additional money was approved to dig deeper if necessary. The water is still cloudy at 250 ft. b. Borough Planning Commission - Phil Bryson Bryson stated there was only one item concerning the City and that was the Barron Park Subdivision which was approved earlier. He stated the item that took the majority of time at the meeting was the State of Alaska, Division of Forestry, Five Year Schedule of Timber Sales in the Kenai Peninsula area. He added that the Commission did approve the State's schedule. C. Administration - Jack La Shot La Shot informed the Commission that Louie Schilling might be adding on to his building by adding another level for a private club. La Shot stated it looks like a principal use in the zone and he just wanted to let the Commission know what is going on. He stated the holes in front of Paradisos are the telephone company's. 10.

Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. SO ORDERED. ITEM B: SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENT B-1. Dan VanZee - Rental car parking spaces/Kenai Airport/south end of terminal building. City Manager Manninen explained car rental agencies have requested the use of five parking spaces at the south end of the terminal. Manninen added Airport Manager Ernst reported at the staff meeting an agreement had been worked out between himself and rental agencies and the matter was removed from the agenda. After 4:00 p.m. today, Dan VanZee telephoned the City Clerk and stated there was no agreement in regard to the parking spaces. Manninen stated the matter has taken enough of Council's time and should be handled administratively, allowing the Airport Manager to work out an agreement. Manninen added he believed VanZee should be able to represent the Kenai Airport Business Alliance (KABA). Manninen stated he would rather the parking space agreement be worked out on a 30-60-90 day probationary period, trial basis. Dan VanZee - Introduced himself as the operator of Hertz at the airport. VanZee referred to his statement included in the packet at Item H-5. VanZee stated they too believe an agreement should be handled administratively. VanZee stated he was approached by Ernst and they discussed the parking spaces and agreed to a compromise. VanZee stated at the end of that conversation he did not believe he had the authority to speak for all of the rental agencies. VanZee added he proposed the compromise and does not have a reason to disbelieve that there can be a compromise. VanZee stated the KABA Board said the discussion should be before Council. VanZee added he did not speak for KABA or the Airport Commission. The Airport Commission brought the item forward through Ernst. VanZee stated he thought it time for the item to be discussed as five or six months have gone by since the idea was brought up. The rental agencies feel they have the right to use the spaces in front of the terminal. VanZee stated their leases allow for it. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 3 Manninen responded saying at this time, speaking for himself and administration, they want a closure to the discussion. However, that does not mean the rental agencies have a right to the parking spaces in front of the terminal. Manninen added they want the leases to be successful. Manninen stated the rental agencies' leases do not reflect VanZee's statement as to the right to parking spaces in front of the terminal; nor is there any contractual right to them. Manninen stated administration's policy is they are here to help. Williams asked Council if they had any comments. There were none. Williams stated Council should be directed to handle the matter administratively, listening to both sides and handled that way. There were no objections from Council. ITEM C: PUBLIC HEARINGS C-1. Ordinance No. 1567-93 - Repealing Ordinance No. 1133-86 and Replacing it With Ordinance No. 1567-94, Changing the Structure of the Townsite Historic District and Creating a Historic District Board. MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED for the adoption of Ordinance No. 1567- 93 and Councilwoman Monfor SECONDED the motion. Public Comments: Sandra Vozar - Owner of Toyon Village Apartments and Beluga -RV, Park. Vozar stated her property was first zoned as General Commercial. Vozar stated she was unaware their zoning was changed to Townsite Historic (TSH). Vozar stated she believed the property owners should have been notified. Vozar stated she submitted an application to change the zoning application back to General Commercial. A copy of the zoning application is included in Council's packet for their information. Vozar stated she would like her property and that of Bay Arms Apartments (she stated she was speaking for the owner) out of the TSH zone. Dorothy McCard - Representing the Holy Assumption Russian Orthodox Church who is the largest landowner in Old Town (15 acres). McCard gave general history of the Church. McCard stated the Church completely supports the boundaries proposed by the Townsite Historic Task Force (TSHTF). McCard stated Council KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 4 should ask themselves whether they can live with the careless destruction of the bluff. McCard added people come to Kenai for the history, not for shopping. Old Town is a historic area. McCard requested Council to not compromise the size of the area; to make their decision carefully; and to disregard the boundary proposed by Planning & Zoning. McCard stated the Church will not accept any other boundary other than those presented by the Task Force. Karen Mahurin - Mahurin stated she has lived in Kenai for 24 years and enjoys visiting the Old Town area. Mahurin stated Old Town is the focus of the city, i.e. the landscape, tourists and people who live there. Mahurin stated her concern for the bluff and encouraged Council to adopt the ordinance. Mahurin stated she likes the idea of a historical district board and does not want commercial development in the area. Roger Meeks - Meeks stated he was a member of the Task Force from the beginning. Meeks stated he was under the impression that the people in the area had all been notified and had a chance to comment. Meeks stated he believed they had not been. Meeks stated he does not want to be a part of forcing people to do something they do not want to do. Meeks stated Council needs to think of the people that live there first. The City needs the tourism, but asked that the people living in that area not be sacrificed for the sake of tourism. Meeks urged Council to look closely and keep the zone as small as possible and develop what they want to develop. Meeks added the biggest majority of the historic townsite is already developed, Meeks suggested the property needing to be included is the area for the Heritage Village and below the bluff. Meeks urged the Council to concentrate on the area below the bluff. Ed Segura - Born in Kenai in 1923. Requested the City/Council leave some of his heritage. It would be good for his culture. Jim Arness - Was a member of the Task Force. Arness stated the Task Force was involved in rewriting the existing ordinance and recommended changes to the boundaries. The Task Force also made a list of possible projects for after the Board is set. Arness stated the intent of the Task Force was based on the concern for the approach taken by Planning & Zoning. P&Z's KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 5 approach was to leave the ordinance as it exists and restrict the use of the land mass involved. At that time, the Task Force was created to review the matter. Arness stated his opinion is the ordinance has had some superficial changes, i.e. establishment of a board to work with P&Z in an advisory role. P&Z and the Task Force reviewed and compared their findings in a work session. P&Z agreed to the board because it has no enforcement powers. P&Z wanted to reduce the land mass to what they proposed. Arness stated there has been a lot of time and work put into this, but nothing has come out of it. The ordinance only works with the people. The board can be established with the ordinance and needs an area with which to work. The restricted area proposed by P&Z has already been developed. There are only two areas open for development, i.e. that of the proposed Heritage Park and the Fish & Wildlife property. Arness pointed out that as the ordinance stipulates now, the Katmai Visitor Center would not be able to be in the TSH zone. Arness stated the Task Force is saying, if you are going to do it, make the area different than any other in the community. They do not want Kmarts there. It was not even their intent to encourage tourists to come there. The area is just for the people. The Task Force would like the land mass as they have suggested and would like the Council's cooperation. Arness added it has been frustrating as the Task Force made their recommendation in January. Since then, there has been development in the zone which would not have been able to be done if their ordinance, etc. had been in place. Arness requested Council do the whole thing, or nothing at all. Discussion followed regarding the square footage allowed for commercial buildings at (e)(3)(i) of the ordinance. Arness stated their intent was a business organization could occupy no more than 2,500 square feet of a building. Their idea was to limit shops or restaurants to smaller organizations. Arness stated that applies to everything. The Task Force did not want a large individual facility. They wanted to keep the businesses small and to scale. Williams stated it could then be interpreted that a museum could not occupy more than 2,500 square feet. Smalley suggested a definition be included in the ordinance to circumvent future problems. Williams reminded the audience and Council there were four separate ordinances needing action. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 6 Will Jahrig - Was a resident of Old Town for many years and is a landowner in the area. Jahrig stated he would like the history preserved. Jahrig stated he has a hard time with the city wanting to further their properties if the city is not going to take ownership of the property or help with the development. Jahrig stated he wants to better the area as it has been stagnant for a long time. Jahrig stated he would like development of the area to be faster. Jahrig stated Council is now trying to put a clamp on the property to take care of past problems and future ones. Jahrig stated he is not sure how this will help the property owners. Jahrig stated he has not been asked about developing it. Jahrig stated he does not have a problem with positive development. Jahrig stated he has tried to sell some of his property, but the real estate agent will not touch it due to the restrictions now there. Jahrig added he has a hard time finding out what the Council is trying to accomplish. Jahrig suggested action be held for a time until the property owners are asked their ideas of what to do. It was determined the Task Force began their work in 1992. Prior to that, the Planning & Zoning Commission reviewed the ordinance. Williams added the ordinance before them now was introduced in September. Swarner asked Jahrig if he received the letter sent in August. Monfor stated there have been articles and editorials in the Clarion as well. Kornelis confirmed all property owners within the proposed zone and all property owners within 300 feet of the zone were sent information regarding the public hearings, etc. The addresses used were those from the Borough tax rolls. MOTION TO AMEND: Councilman Smalley MOVED to amend Item (c) to include the comment from the Judith Bittner memo (included in the packet), i.e. "The Board shall develop a local historical preservation plan that will be compatible with the Alaska State Historic Preservation Plan and produce information that is compatible with the Alaska Heritage Resource Survey." Councilwoman Monfor SECONDED the motion. Smalley referred to Bittner's letter and suggested the item subparagraphs be renumbered or this sentence be added as Item 9. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 7 Swarner stated she believed she had a conflict of interest because her husband co -owns property in Old Town. Attorney Graves stated generally a councilmember may vote to rezone property. Direct financial gain is limited from a rezone of property. Graves added Swarner would not be getting direct financial gain. Graves stated in his opinion, there is no direct conflict. Williams added he did not see a direct conflict of interest. There was no further discussion on the amendment. VOTE ON MOTION TO AMEND: Smalley: Yes Swarner: Yes Williams: Yes Monfor: Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. MOTION TO AMEND: Bookey: Yes Measles: Yes Councilman Smalley MOVED to amend the ordinance on Page 5, adding an Item 13, "Individual Use - Refers to an individual business in its entirety." MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF SECOND. Graves stated it is his understanding Arness was referring to any business organization or organizational unit. Williams referred to Page 3, Item (e)(3)(i) regarding the size of the unit. Williams asked if Council wants to limit the size of the units to 2,500 square feet. Williams stated he was concerned for the Heritage Park if it is decided to put a museum there. Measles stated that item discusses commercial buildings. Measles asked if a museum would be considered a commercial building. Graves stated he did not think a government building is commercial: However, if there is a conflict here, it should be resolved now. Williams suggested Item (e)(3)(i) be a separate entity and should be a section addressing commercial buildings. After Council defines how to treat a commercial building, then the item could be separated. Monfor stated she believed it would be discriminatory to allow government entities in the area and not allow individuals. Measles stated he believed they could be if the type of activity is limited. Arness stated one of the basic concepts of the historical district is to be concerned with the scale, i.e. size relative to KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 8 the other business and structures there and what was there previously. Arness stated the intent of the Task Force was to keep the entities to a size commensurate with that portion of the community. Williams stated a theater would have to hold 100-150 people. City Engineer Jack La Shot explained item (e)(3)'(i) talks about uses. The Land Use Table has included in it the uses of the property. La Shot suggested cutting out the word "commercial" if the sentence is a problem. Williams stated Graves' suggestion of including an exception, i.e. "except that the commission may allow such a structure if in compliance with the zone." Discussion followed. The proposed amendment was discussed. Measles stated they would not be changing the total size of the building. Arness stated it was the Task Force's intent to eliminate large interests. Measles stated he did not believe the 5,000 sq. ft. should be changed. Smalley stated the Planning & Zoning Commission would have the authority for conditional uses, etc. The Board would make recommendations. MOTION TO AMEND: Councilman Smalley MOVED to amend Item (e)(3)(i) and to remove Item (i) and make it a separate Item 4 and re -number 4 to 5. Measles suggested to end the sentence after 115,000 square feet per story. Start a new sentence with "Any individual unit within the structure of no more than 2,500 square feet except that -the commission may allow a larger individual unit if it determines it is compatible with the zone." Smalley agreed. Councilman Measles SECONDED the motion. VOTE ON AMENDMENT: Smalley: Yes Swarner: Yes MOTION PASSED. Williams: Yes Monf or : No Bookey: Yes Measles: Yes KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 9 VOTE ON AMENDED MOTION: Smalley: Yes Swarner: Yes Williams: Yes Monfor: Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. BREAK: 8:29 P.M. BACK TO ORDER: 8:40 P.M. Bookey: Yes Measles: Yes C-2. Ordinance No. 1568-93 - Amending KMC 14.25.020 to Add Townsite Historic (TSH) District to the Definition of "Commercial and Industrial Development" as It Applies to Applications for Landscaping/Site Plan Regulation. MOTION: Councilwoman Monfor MOVED for adoption of Ordinance No. 1568-93 and Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion. There was no public comment. Swarner asked why the amount was set at $10,000. Arness stated $10,000 is the existing amount. There were no other comments. VOTE: Smalley: Yes Swarner: Yes Williams: Yes Monfor: Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. Bookey: Yes Measles: Yes C-3. Ordinance No. 1569-93 - Amending the Official City of Kenai Zoning Map for Certain Lands Described as a Portion of Section 5 & 6, T5N, R11W, Townsite Historic Zone. MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED for adoption of Ordinance No. 1569-93 and Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion. Public comments: Duane Bannock - Representing Planning & Zoning Commission. Bannock stated when the Planning & Zoning Commission decided this issue, Ordinance No. 1567-93 had their blessing if that ordinance KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 10 was attached to the boundary the Commission recommended. Bannock stated he believed he could speak for the whole Commission because they were unanimous with their vote. Bannock added if the boundary size is different than their recommendation, the Commission would not approve Ordinance No. 1567-93. Sandra Vozar - Stated she preferred the P&Z Commission's recommendation of boundary size. Vozar stated she would like Toyon Villa and Bay Arms Apartments out of the zone but understands she must go to P&Z in order to do it. Vozar stated Council needs to be think what they are doing to the property owners of the area when they attach the area. Karen Mahurin - Stated when she first read the ordinance, she believed the existing boundary was too large. Then she drove through the area a number of times. Mahurin stated she feels a lot of the property owners knew the area was historical when they first purchased property there. Mahurin added she believes the ordinance has lots of ways to handle development. Mahurin stated it is important to have more than tall buildings, etc. Mahurin recommended the boundary stay large. Mahurin added history is important. The area needs compatible use. what is existing is compatible. Requested Council to be cautious and selective. Mahurin stated she prefers the existing boundary (Map "A"). Her second choice is Map "C" (TSHTF Alternate No. 2). Jeff Jefferson - Lives in Kenai and does not own property in Old Town. Jefferson stated he does not favor the P&Z recommended boundary as it has no relationship to the historical area. Jefferson added the P&Z recommendation exempts five buildings that are very historical. Jefferson added the City of Kenai needs to make a harder decision, i.e. do they want to create a small zone around the church and make it impossible to develop around the church or have a zone to include all the buildings and loosen the regulations to have other development compatible. Jefferson stated the TSHTF Alternate No. 2 is logical as it recognizes the existence of the historical area. Jefferson stated he believed the City needs to have a historical area and it should include historical buildings or make the area very small around the Church. Jefferson recommended Map "C," TSHTF Alternate No. 2. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 11 Will Jahrig - Jahrig stated he believed the smaller zone is better for management, but may be negative for development. Jahrig added he believes (the smaller zone) will restrict movement in that direction. Jahrig added they need a positive direction from the City. If the City purchases a block or section to install a park, that would be a positive step. Jahrig stated he does not like restrictions put on his properties. Jahrig added if Council chooses a smaller area, they will take out a lot of historical buildings. Jahrig stated there are loopholes in the new boundary. If restrictions are needed, the City should hash them out with the property owners. Williams stated if Council chooses the P&Z recommendation, the zone will be a small area. Most of its land is owned by the federal government or the Church and some apartment buildings. The P&Z boundary recommendation would be the smallest zone with the least effect on the entire area. Williams added Council is not wanting to restrict development, but use guidelines on how to develop the property. Williams stated he personally would prefer to include the entire Old Town area. Development can be done compatible with the area. Smalley stated he appreciated the Task Force and their long and hard work. Smalley stated in 1986-87 the original TSH zone was passed. Since then, lots of time and effort has been put into the handling of the zone. P&Z has dealt with numerable concerns, praises, etc. Smalley stated he has to go on record supporting the P&Z map with the exemption of the Miller house, Cowan's office, etc. Those properties are on the perimeter and the owners have asked to be exempted from the zone. The reason P&Z exempted some and not others was to protect the reason behind the TSH zone and that is the Church property. Smalley added those properties exempted are not exempted from preservation grants. Smalley stated the P&Z boundary reduces the size and restricts more. Smalley stated he supports Map (D), the P&Z recommended boundary. Monfor stated the P&Z recommended boundary is fine if it is the desire to only protect the Church. Monfor stated she supports Map "C" (TSHTF Alternate No. 2). This boundary is smaller than Alternate No. 1, but takes in more. Monfor stated she does not think the property owners understand they are all a part of Old Town. This does not mean they cannot move forward. The City is not representing only the tourists. Kenai is unique. Ownership of that area has not changed much. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 12 Monfor added she would not approve any taking of property by any means but protection is needed for what is there and use Map "C," (TSHTF Alternate No. 2). Bookey stated he has lived in Kenai for 33 years. Bookey stated he does not think the TSH zone hurt the city. Bookey stated he went through the steps when putting in his RV park. Bookey stated the zone has been good for the city and good for his business. Bookey stated he respects the Task Force's work and recommends Map "B" (TSHTF Alternate No. 1). Swarner stated she supported Map "C" (Alternate No..2). MOTION TO AMEND: Councilwoman Monfor MOVED to amend to have this ordinance include the Townsite Historic Task Force rezone recommendation of Alternate No. 2, Map "C." Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion. VOTE ON AMENDMENT: Smalley: No Swarner: Yes MOTION PASSED. VOTE ON AMENDED MOTION: Smalley: No Swarner: Yes MOTION PASSED. Williams: Yes Monfor: Yes Williams: Yes Monfor: Yes Bookey: No Measles: Yes Bookey: Yes Measles: -Yes C-4. Ordinance No. IS70-93 - Amending the Land Use Table to Include Townsite Historic Zone. MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED for adoption of Ordinance No. 1570-93 and Councilwoman Monfor SECONDED the motion. Public comment: KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 13 Jim Arness - Pointed out the recommendation of the Task Force was for single family homes, no duplexes. The P&Z recommendation allows duplexes. Sandra Vozar - Stated she has been in Alaska for 24 years. Vozar stated she owns Tract 3A on the bluff. Vozar stated people who were in Old Town in the past have left. There has been no development in Old Town. Vozar discussed her opinion of the negatives of the Land Use Table. Vozar stated the land uses are very restrictive. Vozar stated if someone wants to build a nice building, let them have the right to do it. In order for profitable development, more area is needed. Williams asked Bannock and Smalley in their tenure (approximately 15 years) on the Planning & Zoning Commission, how many times a conditional use permit has been turned down. Smalley stated Mr. Tomerle's business was turned down due to the restrictiveness of the ordinance. Tomerle could not build a metal framed building. Bannock stated some were discussed, but never produced. Other conditional use permits were discussed.

Toppa added it is time some of their recommendations are taken more seriously by Council. Williams stated the item was discussed as to whether it should or should not be brought to Council. One of the members of the car rental agencies indicated he could not speak for all the agency owners. Council believes it is an administrative matter and does not need to be discussed by Council.

KPB Resolution No. 93-111 will only become effective after Borough municipalities have passed resolutions supporting Torgerson's proposed pay schedule. Freas asked Council if they wish to support Torgerson's alternate pay schedule and if so, should Administration be directed to prepare a supporting resolution for action at the October 20, 1993 council meeting. Measles asked if the weighted vote issue had been settled. Williams stated he did not know. Measles stated if Council agrees to the resolution regarding the pay schedule, they were not supporting the weighted vote. Council could still move back from the weighted vote issue.

Ernst stated no because the request arrived after the last Commission meeting. Swarner requested the rent reduction request be forwarded to the Commission for recommendation first. Toppa stated rent reduction requests had been discussed several years ago. Monfor stated the gift shop was not open a lot during the summer. Monfor asked if the Commission could review that KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 19 matter. Williams stated he has talked with the operators and discussed whether the leasing structure could be rearranged to be one operator instead of three. It might be decided the gift shop is not a viable business for the terminal. Smalley asked if there would be a limitation as to what can be done due to the vendor agreements. Swarner requested the item be taken to the Airport Commission. There were no objections. Bookey suggested the Airport Commission review all leases. Bookey feels they are circumventing the leases each.time a rent reduction is requested and approved. H-5.

McGillivray referred to a memorandum distributed to Council at the beginning of the meeting and added to the agenda. McGillivray stated they have completed one month of charging a user fee. McGillivray stated only adults are charged the fee. The staff has not charged students. They have sold nine punch cards. McGillivray estimated they will collect $7,000 to $8,000 a year. Smalley stated Council was under the impression (when the item was discussed at the 9/21/93 meeting) students would be charged a fee as well. Smalley stated he does not have a problem charging adults, i.e. age 18 or over. McGillivray stated he discussed fee charges with other recreation departments throughout the state. Fees are charged from $1.00 to $2.50 for other gyms. Monfor asked if the fee was advertised first before collecting it. McGillivray stated it was posted at the Center for approximately two weeks. The sign stated the fees would continue from the summer charges. Monfor recommended when a fee is to be instituted or an increase in a fee is to begin (like the boat ramp), an announcement be put in the paper and on the radio. Monfor added it really irritates the public when they have no notice. Williams stated it caught him off -guard that a fee was instituted without Council's knowledge or approval. McGillivray stated the matter was discussed at the August Parks & Recreation meeting at which time the Commission thought they had approved the fee and KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 21 the matter was forwarded to Council. It was discovered no formal motion was made, so it was brought back to the Commission and discussed again, motioned, and approved. Williams questioned the renting of the gym for aerobics classes, etc. and the person renting then collects fees from the students attending the class. McGillivray stated the gym'fee (for use of the whole gym) is $15.00 per hour. If someone uses one-half the space, the charge is $7.50. McGillivray stated it has always been their policy to rent the gym for aerobics and the teacher charges a fee, etc. If there are over 20 persons in a class, the Recreation Center charges $.50 more a person over the $15.00 gym charge from the instructor. Williams stated he is concerned it may be a conflict with private enterprise. McGillivray stated this matter was discussed with Council last year. Smalley stated it was brought up by people from an entity outside of the city limits. Bookey stated he agreed with Williams. Smalley stated the survey information stated the Recreation Center had the highest use. Smalley added he did not believe the City is in competition with other city businesses. Smalley asked where the line would be drawn, i.e. if another racquetball court opened in Kenai, or weight training, dancing, would the facility's scope be changed? Measles stated his concern is like any other lease for a city building; what is the City's liability for the class and the students in the class. Measles suggested the person teaching the class (renting the gym) should be required to have insurance coverage. McGillivray stated all instructors have waivers for their students to sign. McGillivray added Attorney Graves reviewed the waiver. Graves stated insurance coverage is better than a waiver. Graves added he remembers looking at the waivers about a year ago. Graves stated he will review the insurance question if Council desires. Measles stated he would like the matter reviewed. Smalley asked who covers the insurance for City league basketball, whether they are using a school gym or city gym. McGillivray stated he believes the City does. Graves added there has never been a claim to the City from league basketball. Williams asked Council if they wished to continue the gym use fee. Consensus was yes. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 22 Smalley stated if there are adjustments to the charge, the matter should be brought back to Council for review and action. ITEM I: ADMINISTRATION REPORTS Mayor 1. Tree Transplanting - Williams stated he has learned Barron Butler has purchased the Texaco station in Kenai. Butler stated he plans to cut down the evergreen trees situated in front of the station. Williams suggested Council, through its beautification efforts, have the trees transplanted. Monfor asked if Butler has returned the City's sign. Monfor added Butler should get nothing until the sign is returned. Swarner stated transplanting grown trees is pretty involved. McGillivray stated his department's experience in transplanting trees has not been very successful. No action was taken. 2. Restroom Plans - Williams requested $2,500 to $3,000 for the drawing of restroom plans. The restroom had been discussed previously with Council. The restroom would be placed by the Plant Test Site by the ballfields. Williams stated the plans must be signed by a licensed architect because it is the City who wants to build the facility. Monfor stated she thought the work would be done in-house. Williams stated the plans must be stamped by an architect. Swarner stated she had a problem with that much money. Williams stated he had hoped to have the facility built. Williams added he has discussed the matter with Finance Director Brown and Brown believes the funding can come from the Daubenspeck account. Monfor asked if this design could be used for other facilities. Williams stated the standard outhouse design would need changing. Monfor stated she was thinking about the use of the design for a new facility at Cunningham Park. Measles stated he would like to have the facility built but not to have it designed by an outside entity. Measles added lots of ports -potties can be rented for $3,000. Monfor suggested Williams first finds out if volunteers will commit to building the facility. Williams stated he planned to KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 23 ask the Lions Club, Rotary, etc. to volunteer to build it. Williams added it will cost $20,000 to $25,000 to build the facility (no electricity, no hot water). Swarner suggested Administration find pre -drawn plans from the State, Council consensus was "no" to spending $3,000 for restroom facility plans. 3. ISTEA Program - Williams advised Council the ISTEA program has been changed around. However, the Mission Street funding is in the program. Kornelis added the DOT priority list is included in the packet as Information Item No. 2. 4. courthouse Project - Williams suggested having an open house and ribbon -cutting ceremony for the new courthouse during AML week.

Public Health Nurse Facility - Williams stated he spoke with the Jean Berger, Public Health Nurse and learned they have put in a $1 million request for a new facility. Williams stated he told Berger Council will be pleased to do a resolution in support. Williams added he has discussed with Council before the donation of land for a health facility between the Senior Center and the Leif Hansen Memorial Park. The building would be approximately 5,000 square feet. Williams suggested Council consider this matter. 6. Ice Rink - Williams stated the Ice Rink Task Force will meet on Tuesday, October 12, 1993 at 7:00 p.m. The Task Force. has hired a consultant for fund raising events and KPHA has joined in the effort. KPHA will be funding the cost of a brochure. Williams added the Task Force has discussed a number of different ways to raise money, i.e. Permanent Fund Dividend check, City's money, etc. Smalley stated he has discussed the brochure with Nate Kiel. They are in need for an additional $150 for funding the brochure. Smalley asked if the Mayor or the City could donate the $150. Williams advised Council there will be a major town hall meeting at KCHS, tentatively scheduled for November 9 to discuss the ice rink. Swarner stated she is not in favor of spending City money now. Swarner added she would like to see the people truly KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 24 interested to come up with the front money. Swarner stated the City can give support with paper products, etc, but no money now. No donation was approved. I-2. _ City Manager 1. Fire Truck Grant - Manninen reported a letter confirming the fire truck grant approval was received. The grant is for $214,000. Manninen added nothing has been heard about the water improvement grant as yet. 2. Water & Sewer Increase Letter - Manninen reported the water and sewer increase letter was revised and sent out. Manninen offered a copy to anyone interested. 3. Well Drilling - Manninen reported the allotted amount of money was spent for the well drilling. A test well was drilled to 300 feet. Manninen passed water samples from the present well and the test well. Manninen requested $10,000 to either go deeper or pump water from the test well to see if it gets clearer. Manninen stated the test well is a large source of water, but is not very clear. Measles suggested to go another 500 feet or so because he did not think any wells have been drilled that deep here and no one knows if there may be better water at that depth. Bookey was concerned if the well is drilled to 500 feet, salt water may be found. Kornelis stated he does not think that would happen. Kornelis requested $4,500 more for drilling. Kornelis added he did not, know if they would have to go that far and maybe will not use all that amount of money. However, if better water is found, they will have it tested. MOTION: Councilman Measles MOVED to allow the not -to -exceed amount of $5,000 be issues in a purchase order to Kraxberger Drilling for continuing with the drilling of the exploratory water well. Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion and requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT. There were no objections. SO ORDERED. I-3. Attorney No report. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1993 PAGE 25 I-4.

The hydrant needed to be moved before the paving on Second Avenue to save having to cut the pavement at a later date and also it will cost much less to do it now. The amount of the purchase order is $2,000.00. The telephone poll was approved (four yes, one no, one out of town). 2. Historic Preservation Fund Program - Freas referred to her memorandum included in the packet and information regarding the Historic Preservation Fund Program. A short discussion followed.

Council Packets - Freas reported Kathyrn DeLacee of the Kenai Airport Business Alliance contacted her office and spoke with Sheryl. DeLacee stated she tentatively wanted to be placed on a list to receive a council packet. Freas requested input from Council as to what charge should be fixed for the cost of packets. Freas stated during the discussion DeLacee stated she was not sure they wanted to receive the whole packet, maybe only a portion of it. Freas stated to Council she would not put together only a portion of a packet. DeLacee (from the audience) stated she had not received a copy of the agenda from the Airport Manager. Freas stated the agendas are always available for the public on Friday afternoons through the time of the meeting. Copies of ordinances, resolutions and back-up materials are available upon request. DeLacee asked if something came up at an Airport Commission meeting or is listed as a discussion item on the agenda that KABA would like to offer written comment to, is there a time when they could get that information to Council prior to the meeting. Freas stated the cut-off time for information to be included in the packet is noon on packet day (the Friday prior to the meeting).

Swarner - RV Park Building Permits - Requested to see an ordinance or some manner of directive requiring building permits for RV parks.

Manninen, City of Kenai 210 Fidalgo Avenue Kenai, Alaska 99611 Dear Tom: F-i 217 Second Street, Suite 200 ■ Juneau, Alaska 99801 ■ Tel (907)586-1325, Fax (907)463-5480 City Manager i OCT1993 ii, "'ITY aer�l1;�. Thank you for your recent letter expressing the concerns of the City of Kenai regarding the "self -pay" dues structure and referring to the weighted vote proposal. I wish to point out that these are two separate issues, and either could be implemented without the other. The AML dues are set by the AML Board; the weighted voting issue must be decided by the delegates at the AML Conference. The dues change is seen by the Board as a matter of equity, in that, under the current system, cities located in the unincorporated borough or in boroughs that do not pay AML dues on an area wide basis pay a much higher rate than similar cities in boroughs that choose to pay AML dues on an area wide basis. Please note that the changes the AML Board has adopted are essentially revenue neutral to the League - as city dues payments increase, borough dues would decline. I understand that alternative local dues structures are under consideration within Kenai Borough, and that an exception to the "self -pay" structure will be requested of the AML Board. Perhaps this will respond to the City's concerns. Weighted voting is a separate, but not entirely unrelated issue. This matter has been raised before, coming to a vote on the floor at the 1988 AML Conference. At that time the issue was a one -to -five spread based on population. The question was defeated with opposition from some who have now become proponents of -a weighted vote. In this case a one -to -eight spread, weighted on the basis of AML dues paid is proposed. The proponents clearly see this as a fairness issue - large dues paying entities feel they should have a greater voice in making League policy than those who pay only a few hundred dollars in fees. I would think this matter would be debated in depth before it is decided by the delegates at the upcoming AML convention. With best regards, Kent E.

OF KENAI The Soldotna City Council has authorized me to contact you to inquire whether the City of Kenai would be interested in a joint venture with Soldotna to solicit proposals for engineering services to prepare plans and estimates of cost for a water treatment plant and transmission main to interconnect our water systems. We are interested in exploring the feasibility of a treatment plant that would improve the quality of our drinking water. We suspect that the cost of our water could be less, if the expense of operating a treatment plant could be spread over the larger rate base of the combined populations of Kenai and Soldotna. A water transmission main between our cities along the Kenai Spur Road would enable extension of water service to the Ridgeway area and could generate additional revenue for operating the plant. A public corporation our cities could be organized to construct and operate the plant. I suggest that a joint committee of ourselves, our mayors and city engineers be organized to formulate a competitive request for engineering proposals. The solicitation would give explicit notice that this project will not proceed unless a substantial amount of grant funding is received for the engineering. The committee would evaluate proposals received, select a consultant and negotiate an engineering contract for this project subject to approval of our Councils. Then, we would jointly seek state and/or federal grant funding for the cost of the engineering contract. . I hope the Kenai City Council will authorize us to begin working together on this. If you have questions, require additional information or have alternative ideas about how to implement this proposal, please call me. Thanks for your consideration.

The existing facilities are in need of repair and Flo not meet ADA standards. With the help of the Public Works Department, a cost estimate of $193,760 has been established. The LWCF grant is a matching grant, with the City responsible for one-half ($96,880). The deadline for the letter of intent was October 15, 1993. I realize the letter -was sent without Council approval, but we are under no obligation at this point. Our letter of intent must first be approved by the State Department of Natural Resources and, if it is approved, Council can then determine if they wish to continue with the application. cc: City Manager CITY OF KENAI it Od 4 414,4" 210 FIDALGO AVE., SUITE 200 KENAI, ALASKA 99611-7794 TELEPHONE 907-283-7535 _ FAX 907-283-3014 1III�1 1992 NMOPANDUN TO: Thomas J. Manninen, City Manager FROM: Charles A. Brown, Finance Director qa DATE: October 14, 1993 SUBJECT: Softball Fields and Park near Main Street Loop It is my understanding that something will be in the next Council packet regarding building toilet facilities near the Shelter along Main Street Loop. In 1990, City staff analyzed general fund uses of airport lands. We issued a memo that addressed fourteen areas of such use. The result was that the general fund purchased several parcels of airport land. An area that was not purchased or leased was the softball field complex near Main Street Loop. The justification for not doing so was that these were only grassy areas and not permanent facilities. We'd consider approaching the FAA to release them if somebody wanted to purchase or lease. That area now has fenced ballfields, playground equipment, an agricultural plot (on which the City recently extended the lease or use permit), a permanent shelter, and proposed permanent toilet facilities. Let's not revert to the old ways of doing business. Don't you believe that what we have really done is taken the land from the airport and turned it into a permanent general government park? The land is of fairly high value. The airport clear zone starts about 500' from Main Street Loop. We may have already reached the point of no return. Certainly, in my mind, if any further development takes place there, I think we have to admit that the land is, and will continue to be, a park.

Sales money for lifetime advertising boards. 3. Private, non-profit organizations' donations. Grant funding is in the process through the Economic Development District for the amount of $100,000.

Box 107001 Anchorage, AK 99510-7001 Re: Letter of Intent for Application State of Alaska Historic Preservation Fund Grant Dear Ms. Clemens: In yesterday's telephone conversation, I advised you that the City of Kenai is interested in the State of Alaska's Certified Local Government (CLG) Program for funding historical preservation projects. In order to be eligible for a Historic Preservation Fund grant, the City must be an approved Certified Local Government. Our Application for Certification is enclosed for approval. In addition, it is our understanding that this Letter of Intent will hold the City's place for a grant if the CLG certification is received. The proposed project is a Heritage Village in the Kenai Townsite Historic District. The Townsite Historic District includes such national historic treasures such as the Russian Orthodox Church that is currently on the National Register, and the Russian Orthodox Parsonage. The Townsite Historic District also includes other historic sites that must be surveyed, inventoried, rehabilitated and preserved for the City's future. In addition, technical assistance, historical preservation ordinance preparation, rehabilitation, planning assistance and engineering are needed. The Kenai City Council on October 6, 1993 adopted Ordinance No. 1567-93 changing the structure of the Townsite Historic District and creating a Historic District Board. At this time, members of the Board have not been appointed. Also adopted at the meeting was Ordinance No. 1569-93 which delineates the Townsite Historic District in accordance with the recommendations of the City of Kenai's Townsite Historic Task Force. These ordinances are attached for your information. The City of Kenai realizes that we have very important work to do, namely finalizing appointments to the Historic District Board; inventorying the existing sites within the Townsite Historic District; developing a plan for the Kenai Heritage Village concept and implementing it. This will include the possible rebuilding of a Fort Kenay complex; building a platform for viewing Cook Inlet; and providing a location for historically significant artifacts and equipment relating to fishing, fish processing and KenaiIs200-year history. Please identify how much funding is available and what are the priorities of the Alaska Historic Preservation Fund Grant program? Can land acquisition be funded through this program or other resources? The City of Kenai is excited about the possibility of this multifaceted project becoming a reality. We need your approval of the Application for Certification and we request your assistance in developing these concepts through the Certified Local Government Program.

Congratulations to you and the City of Kenai Townsite Historic Task Force on the adoption of Ordinance No. 1570-93! Especially with the inclusion of the 100 acre historic district. It is heartening to see that concern for Kenai's heritage has prevailed. A basis is now established for Kenai to become a Certified Local Government (CLG). We look forward to working with the city in becoming a CLG. Once this is done, the city is eligible to receive historic preservation fund grants. These grants can be help establish design guidelines for your new ordinance, set up a local historic preservation plan, and survey and inventory historic properties. While the deadline for sending in Letters of Intent for FY94 CLG grants has passed, there is a possibility that a second round of grants may be available March 1994. If not, then Letters of Intent to apply for FY'95 CLG grants will be due in July or August 1994. Please contact me or Janet Clemens, Local Certified Government Coordinator, at'762-2622 if we can be of further assistance. Sincerely, Judith E. Bittner State Historic Preservation Officer MEMORANDUM TO: Keith Komelis, Public Works Director FROM: Jack La Shot, City Engineer DATE: October 15, 1993 SUBJECT: Slaughter Residence Sewer and Water Service Attached is a letter from Judith A. Slaughter concerning the problems they have with their existing on -site septic system and with tying into the municipal system. Basically, the septic crib is failing and ADEC will not approve of a replacement of the system because the Slaughters are within 200 feet of the municipal system. We have an ordinance that says if a structure, (which creates sewage or uses water), is within 200 feet of a sewer or water main, that structure shall be connected. In this case, even though they are within 200 feet, it will require main line extensions about 80 to 90 feet within the Grant Place right-of-way to accomplish the connections. This, of course, is expensive and has always been the responsibility of the owner, unless it is extended in the course of a capital project. The area around Grant Place was served with sewer and water by a City capital project in 1983. The project did not include Grant Place, and was not assessed to the property owners. The main lines were stubbed out to eventually serve Grant Place at that time, however, were not extended due to a half dedication of the street and the existence of only a driveway. Other areas served were mostly existing streets, except Eadies_ Way, which was added to the project at the request of property owners, I believe. Mrs. Slaughter has cost estimates to extend the mains of around $10,000, which is probably three times what a replacement of the septic system and continued use of her well would cost.

My residence is 212 Grant Place (Lt .7 Mulvaney Estaci:a Suod . ) I currently use a crib system for waste disposal and my wel l water does not meet the standards of the City of Kenai . City sewer and water 1 ines are approximately 8u' from my property line. There is one lot bordering my ..property and :3rd Avenue. 1 cannot connect, to 3rd Avenue lines, without disrupting my neighbors property or the Grant Place fright of way) . I have been informed. by David Johnson, Dept. Environmental Conservation, Environmental Engineer, that I cannot, under any circumstances, replace my existing i l'?5 7. clrcal crib, even with a DEC approved system. Ny existinq crib is deteriorating rapidly. My options appear non -ex istant . The only option is, for the City of 1:::enai , to install sewer and water, 1 ines on Grant Place (right of way) . if this cannot be accompi ished, I would 1 ik:e the council to provide. a written response and a copy of city ordinances, supporting that decision. It is oertinant that this be accomplished by snow+all or I must additionally, request that the council, explore and provide, an alternative option +or my sanitation needs. I have had numerous conversations with Mr. Jack La Shot, Lity Engineer. i am disappointed that Mr. La Shot has not brought this to the council. Mr. La Shot has been aware of my need +or years. I addressed this issue again. with Mr. La Shot. be+ore the paving of this area began. I will be very disappointed if additional cost is incurred, should anv work need to be done under paved areas. i was instructed, by Mr. La Shot, that installation was my responsibility. I take issue with that statement. Grant Place is a city right of way. I do not own the property bordering :3rd Avenue. So, is Mr. La Shot correct in advising me, that I disrupt Grant Place, a city right of way, at my expense, to install sewer and water lines, that are otherwise :afforded to the rest of the property owners in this area at city exoense Or. is he suggesting that I disrupt the bordering oropertv7 Additionally, I was instructed that I would be responsible for the engineering tees associated with the different agencies involved. Furthermore, if the City of Kenai does not provide for my needs, as the city does for the rest of the neighborhood. I cannot helo but find this to be highly discriminatory.

Gay The White House Interagency Task Force on federal wetlands regulations released its final recommendations last month. The proposed one percent Alaska rule was aban- doned, although a 53 million acre exemption for "prior con- verted cropland" in the Lower 48 was continued. The White House document asserts that the Corps and EPA will, within the next 90 days, initiate meetings with a variety of groupsto "consider other environmentally appropri- ate means to assure regulatory flexibility and the feasibility of alternative permitting procedures in Alaska." Thewedands debate is nowfu!ly engaged in Congress and the Administration's guidelines are reflected in legislation which may improve the 404 program. It may even consider Alaska's contribu- tion to wetlands protection, if Alaskans are given a chance to make comments. Formal comments are being drafted now. In order to impress upon policymakers the abundance and variety of wetlands in Alaska, RDC and the Alaska Wetlands Coalition (AWC) members coordinated a field trip to Alaska for key Congressional committee staff members. The statewide trip had the group on the ground from South- east Alaska to the North Slope, seeing forested wetlands to permafrost in a week of hard traveling. A special thanks is due all the Congressional staffers and the EPA liaison, Bob Hickmott, whodemonstrated professionalism, stamina, knowl- edge and a great sense of humor atthe rigorous, early -to -late schedule we put them through! Another big thanks goes to the many Alaskans who helped show the AWC members and Congressional staff around Alaska. In Sitka, Mayor Dan Keck was the lead tour guide, with APC staff Rollo Pool, Pat Joensuu and Ralph Warner making the False Island logging camp trip as suc- cessful field trip. In Juneau, Planning Director Murray Walsh and field trip coordinator Jan Caulfield arranged for a special lunch which included Assembly members Rod Swope, Al Clough and Rosalie Walker, Juneau Wetlands Committee members and Executive Director Becky Gay and Projects Coordinator Ken Freeman on Anvil Mountain near Nome on the wetlands tour. Photo by John Kerekes a few locals. AWC Co-chair Rick Harris provided an excellent technical briefing, with a special welcome by Bob Loescher, both of Sealaska Corporation. Dr. Paul Rusanowski, Director of the Division of Governmental Coordination for the State of Alaska, rounded out the day with an overview of Alaska wetlands and geography. In Bethel, after breakfast with local city officials, AWC Co - Chair Bill Bivin and the staff of Bethel Native Corporation gave a first-rate tour of the townsite. Then, off we went down the river by boat to Napaskiak, where the group met with villagers, heard from City Administrator Joseph Steven and Mayor Peter Williams, Sr., and toured the village and school. Nelson Angapak of Calista flew with a smaller group to Kwethluk, with on -the -ground help by Phillip Guy. In the Arctic portion, the Prudhoe Bay tour was led by Mike Joyce of ARCO and Chris Hergulson of BPX and mada possible by those companies. Pat Boinski of ARCO. Tony Kinderkencht and Cindy Bailey of BPX, and Gary Schultz of DNR Lands Division also helped make the permafrost tour educational. Thanks to Mayor Tom Fink and Paula Easley of t�, Municipality of Anchorage and Priscilla Wohl of the Decar ment of Environmental Conservation for the tour of Anchor- age, Potter's Marsh and Turnagain Arm. In Girdwood, Larry Daniels, Directorof Planning for Seibu, Inc. discussed design analysis of the new hotel and tram project, wetlands avoid- ance and minimization efforts and permitting time, and gave a quick tour of the new luxury hotel under construction. In Nome, Mayor John Handeland lived up to his reputa- tion as a great field guide, bus driver, and general entertainer while he showed the AWC group his town. Helped by Irene Anderson of Sitnasuak and Tom Sparks of Bering Straits Regional Corporation, the tour ended with a good look at the people who make Alaska such a great place to live, and the abundant wetlands which make Alaska such a unique regu- latory challenge. Page 2 / RESOURCE REVIEW / September 1993 Thoughts from the President by James L. Cloud Your future is at stake In a world of resource conflicts and contradictions of human behavior, the Resource Development Council stands for the responsible use of natural resources to better the lives of people. This organization strives to bring some balance to the inevitable conflicts over competing uses of our country's natural resources. We all know the vital necessity for the availability of natural resources to create products, shelter, food and en- ergy. People cannot survive without these resources. Yet there is perpetual disagreement among resource consumers over their uses. Access and availability of natural resources are the foundations to any social and economic system, �lanized or not. When access or availability is restricted, the yap between the "haves" and the "have nots" widens, leading to increased poverty, decreased wealth, and social and political unrest. One must only read the depressing accounts of the struggle that residents of Sarajevo have been through just to obtain vital resources to provide heat, shelter and food. If our country is to prevent the kind of economic and civil collapse that has occurred in Eastern Europe, our leaders in Washington must work to keep natural resources available for people to use. We cannot continue to lock up our re- sources, driving up reliance on imports and exporting domes- tic manufacturing jobs. If America does not control the source of raw materials, it will find itself importing finished goods. RDC has fought many battles through public educational efforts and advocacy. And we have many more battle to fight. Our staff reviews and comments on the scores of land use plans, environmental impact statements, and public com- ment requests concerning the restrictions being placed on natural resources and their access throughout the state. As talented as they are, our small staff cannot do this job without your help. Our good reputation for thoughtful advice and follow through helps us get our foot in the door, but the comments and support of our membership is very important to the effectiveness of our efforts. RDC needs your help more than ever. The issues are complicated and of the utmost importance to the future of Alaska. Wetlands: How do we change wetlands regulations to allow reasonable development in our villages, cities and ports and access to minerals, timber, fisheries and parks? Mining Law reform: How do we encourage Congress to be sensible when tinkering with the economics of delivering raw minerals to goods manufactured through mining our country's resources? Oil and Gas: How do we assure access to exploration and production lands for our future energy needs? Timber: How do we work to keep an adequate supply of timber available to ensure the production of lumber for our homes, paper for our work, and jobs for our communities? Tourism: How do we encourage government to increase access to some of the country's largest national parks and reduce crowding along our few roads and recreational areas? Fisheries: How do we work to keep wildlife preserva- tionists from blocking subsistence, sports and commercial fishing from the source of sustenance? Education: How do we ensure that our young minds are aware of resource needs of people throughout the world? Virtually no sign of oil spill in Sound Results of scientific studies conducted by scientists from leading universities, consulting companies and independent research institutes has revealed that Prince William Sound has almost fully recovered from the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill. The results of the multi -year science program, spon- sored by Exxon, sharply contradicts claims made by some that the spill injuries persist, are widespread and will be long lasting. Some of the latest findings were reported by two leading scientists this summer at an Anchorage luncheon forum sponsored by the Resource Development Council and the ,ka Oil and Gas Association. David Page, a Professor of Chemistry and Chairman of the Chemistry Department at Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine, and Edward Gilfillan, Director of the Marine Research (Continued to page 6) Last month RDC officers assessed shoreline recovery in Prince William Sound during a tour conducted by Exxon.

September 1993 / RESOURCE REVIEW / Page 3 Proposed 1%rule for Alaska is gone (Continued from page 1) lands. The one percent rule would have exempted Alaska from such compensatory mitigation requirements until one percent of the state's wetlands had been developed. Unlike the rest of the nation, 99.8 percent of the 170 million acres -of wetlands in Alaska remain untouched. With 70 percent of the state's non -mountainous lands consid- ered wetlands, federal policy would place a heavier burden on Alaskans than on the rest of the country. Although disappointed with the Administration's deci- sion to kill the proposed one percent rule, Becky Gay, Executive Director of the Resource Development Council, said the Alaska Wetlands Coalition will work through Con- gress and with the Administration to achieve necessary regulatory flexibility so Alaskans can continue to expand their communities and build in a state that has an acute shortage of dry lands. "The Alaska Wetlands Coalition has always preferred to work for a good law as opposed to an exemption to a bad law," said Gay. "There is a growing awareness within the Administration and Congress of Alaska's outstanding con- tribution to wetlands preservation and the unique needs of its rural communities." Senator Ted Stevens warned that unless the strict mitigation requirements for Alaska are eased, further de- velopment and community expansion on state and Native iands will be severely hampered. The Clinton wetlands policy for Alaska, according to Stevens, breaks the state- hood compact and reneges on the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. Of the 105 million acres granted to Alaska Natives under ANCSA, some 70 percent or more may be wetlands. Native leaders are concerned federal wetlands policy will prevent development opportunities, thus stripping the eco- nomic value from their lands. Another 156 million acres of Alaska is blocked out in federal conservation system units which prohibit or se- verely restrict development. The wetlands policy not only applies to these federal and Native lands, but to state and private lands as well. While Alaska has preserved over 99.8 percent of its wetlands, over half of the wetlands in the Lower 48 have been destroyed. Ironically, President Clinton announced an exemption for 53 million acres of wetlands in the Midwest. His policy includes an expedited process for farmers to use when appealing government denial of permit requests to develop additional wetlands.

Believing one of the best approaches to educating law- makers in Washington about Alaska's unique circumstances is to see first-hand how an inflexible wetlands policy can adversely affect Alaska, the AWC has brought Congres- sional staff with jurisdiction over wetlands policy to Alaska overthe past four summers to learn about the many problems and experiences the state faces concerning federal regula- tory control. This summer's August tour began in Southeast and included Sitka, Juneau, and the logging community of False Bay. Southeast Alaska affords delegates the opportunity to see the diversity of Alaska's wetlands, ranging from muskeg to forested wetlands. The tour continued on to Western Alaska including the communities of Bethel and Napaskiak. A small contingent of delegates were able to visit the.fishing village of Kwethluk. The Kuskokwim Delta region has a tremendous, almost overwhelming amount of wetlands. Visiting this area clearly represents the conditions many villagers must endure and the obstacles they face developing their surrounding wet- lands. The tour also included the Arctic coast and the oil facilities at Prudhoe Bay. The North Slope represents one of the most environmentally -sound oil production infrastruc- tures in the world. These facilities clearly represent how well human -kind can work in concert with the environment and surrounding wildlife. Tour delegates also took a look at howa large community in Alaska has worked to protect the environment when they visited Anchorage. The Municipality of Anchorage has gone to great lengths to protect its wetlands in and around the city. The Municipality is currently working on efforts to update delineation of Anchorage wetlands. The final leg of the Coalition's tour was Nome where participants toured a community whose economic stability and prosperity rests significantly on responsible mineral development. Native corporations in Nome and the city itself have been fighting an on -going battle with federal regulators, hampering their economic independence. "These tours are crucial because they demonstrate first-hand how diverse and abundant Alaska's wetlands are compared to almostanywhere in theworid," said Becky Gay, AWC Coordinator. "TheAWC hasbeen instrumental in elevatingAlaska'sconcemson wetlands policy to date," Gay said.

RDC encourages Oil spill... sustained -yield (Continued from page 3) timber harvests Comments filed on 5-year plans Despite the promise of sustained -yield utilization of resources envisioned in the Constitution of the State of Alaska, the 49th state has had twenty years of the opposite in forest resources, noted the Resource Development Council in a letter to Tom Boutin, Director of the Alaska Department of Forestry. State policy has not encouraged sus- tained -yield harvesting of Alaska's vast re- newable forest resources, said RDC Presi- dent Jim Cloud. Commenting on the state's five-year forestry plans, Cloud said each area forester in Alaska is required by the Constitution to manage the forests for mul- tiple uses and encourage sustained -yield timber harvesting. To accomplish this man- date, Cloud said the biological annual al- lowable cut should be put up for sale. "Not to utilize our forests to provide opportunities and resources for Alaska citi- zens is unacceptable and un-Constitutional," Cloud said. Alaska's wood products industry re- mains a sleeping giant, a potential multi- billion dollar economic force that some day could employ over 10,000 people. With more than 10 percent of the entire nation's forest resource, Alaska's peak timber har- vest has never reached above one half of one percent of the nation's output. Alaska ranks far below other states that support annual multi -billion dollar industries on a much smaller resource base. To a large extent, laws, regulations, attitudes and the creation of wilderness and off -limit park and wildlife areas have dis- couraged timber harvesting. The result has been virtually no utilization of forest re- sources on state lands. Disease and insect attacks are destroying large areas of timber and natural mortality has, in many areas, surpassed growth, especially in the millions of acres devastated by the spruce beetle. RDC supports a state forest health initiative on the Kenai Peninsula where an over -mature forest is dying from the beetle. State foresters say logging infested areas will speed regeneration of the forest while salvaging the economic value of the trees. They warn that fish streams, wildlife habitat and view sheds are in greaterjeopardy from aging spruce dying and falling down. Critics claim the state's new five-year timber plan to combat the beetle infestation will harm fishing and tourism. They also oppose new roads built to access trees in the backcountry. Laboratory at Bowdoin College, spent much of this past summer on Prince William Sound beaches doing exten- sive field studies. Before the Anchor- age gathering, they reported that while there were acute short-term impacts from the oil spill, the injuries have not been long lasting as claimed by some government scientists. They said claims of long-term damage are, in many in- stances, based on a faulty interpreta- tibn by government scientists of data from a data base used by numerous government researchers. This -flawed interpretation caused them to assert that large numbers of biologic and sedi- ment ,Samples from the Sound con- tained remnants of Exxon Valdez oil when they did not. "We found that the Sound does have a lot of petroleum in subtidal sedi- ments, but through extensive finger- printing studies, we've shown that this petroleum comes in from seep areas to the east of the Sound, not from the spill as some have asserted," said Page. Gilifillan and Page reported that intertidal biological communities have generally recovered to levels of abun- dance and species composition com- parable to similar unoiled shores. Among the major points made by the two scientists were: - Except for the most heavily -oiled sites, within a year after the spill most of the oiled sites were very similar to unoiled sites. • Some assert that if oil is not found on the shorelines, it must have moved to the seafloor. This assertion is wrong. There are many sources of petroleum in the Sound that are not related to the spill. - Any changes that occur after an oil spill are blamed on the spill even though there are many othertactors in the environ- ment. • Predictions made by the media in 1989werewrong. There have beenover35 oil spills larger than the Valdez spill. Those environments rapidly recovered. We knew the Sound would, too. - By 1990, the Sound was well along the recovery path. Based on current field worts, there is very little remaining evidence of the spill. September 1993 / RESOURCE REVIEW / Page 7 You Could have put someone's eye out!
