Thomas J. Manninen, City Manager

January 28, 1994 fq~
SUBJECT- Deferred Compensation, 457 Plan
In October, 1993 you asked me to review a new deferred
compensation plan that is endorsed by the Alaska Municipal
League. As with the current ICMA plan, all contributions to
the plan are made voluntarily by employees; the City
contributes nothing.
Key provisions of this new plan include-
1) The plan sponsor is National Association of Counties
(NACo). The plan administrator is Public Employees
Benefit Services Corporation (PEBSCo). This
administrator has substantial experience in deferred
compensation plans.
2) Variable investment options include a substantial list
of mutual funds that can be tracked in financial
publications.
3) The fixed fund pays an attractive interest rate, has no
administrative charges or asset fees, and offers a 4%
bonus if money is transferred from another deferred
compensation plan. To receive the full 4%, money must
remain in the fixed fund for two years.
4) A maximum of 20% per account per year can be
transferred from the fixed fund to variable funds.
5) PEBSCo handles all administration and accounting.
It appears to me that the NACo plan may be advantageous to
City employees. I recommend that the City participate.
A resolution adopting the NACo plan is attached to this memo.
If you want to recommend to the Council that the City
participate in this plan, I suggest that you simply give the
City Clerk the resolution and this memo for inclusion in the
February 2, 1994 Council packet.

LIQUOR LICENSE RENEWAL - KATMAI HOTEL RESTAURANT
AND LOUNGE- Beverage Dispensary/Tourism - Two Years
Attached is the Katmai's liquor license renewal application. The
Borough has informed me the account is not current. The owner
(Jim Singree) has told them he will bring the account current by
February 8 (the next Borough Assembly meeting). The City of
Kenai needs to make their comments to the ABC Board by February
10 (30 days from receipt of the renewal notice).
The Katmai Restaurant and Hotel is on city-leased land. I have
been informed the lessee (Singree) is delinquent in lease
payments. KMC 2.40.020 states
Prior to approving renewal of any liquor license by the
City of Kenai, the Council shall enter findings in the
minutes of the Council that the afore-described liquor
licensees have satisfied all obligations to the City of
Kenai or that the applicant has entered into a City
approved payment plan with the Borough or City on any
obligations owed to the City and said applicant is in
compliance with said payment plan. After making such
finding, the City Council may grant the approval
requested.
Mr. S ingree does not have a payment plan with the Borough or the
City.
Does Council wish to make a motion to direct me to send a letter
of non-objection (by February 10) if notification is received
from the Borough and the City that all obligations are current?
If obligations are not current (by February 10), does Council
direct me to send a letter of objection?

Thibodeau stated this item was discussed during the last
Commission meeting/work session. The Commission members present
at the work session agreed this item should be included on the
goals and objectives list.
Ernst explained that because there were only three members of the
Commission present for the last meeting, no quorum was available
and that the goals and objectives discussed and agreed upon were
not officially accepted. Thibodeau agreed.
ITEM
OLD BUSINESS
a. Finalization of Goals & Objectives - Thibodeau reported
he submitted to the Commission (during the work session) proposed
goals and objectives. They reviewed the list. His list was
divided into four areas, i.e., terminal area; float plane
facility; ramp and taxiway areas; and airport in general. Some
of the items had been suggested by Ernst previously.
Thibodeau's suggested list:
Terminal Area:
1. Replace carpet.
2. Rejuvenate tick counters and car rental counters.
3. Provide new seating in the waiting area.
4. Create more parking.
5. Improve aesthetics
a. Introduce art in the terminal area
b. Display local crafts.
Float Plane Facility-
1. Install threshold lighting
2. Plan and install camping area at the south end of the
parking slip area.
3. Plan and install picnic area on the point at the southwest
corner of the water runway with pathway to the maintenance
road turnaround.
4. Plan and sponsor float plane fly-in.
5. Improve aesthetics of the Float Plane Facility
a. Fertilize lawns
b. Encourage citizen groups to plant flowers.
KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
JANUARY 13, 1994
PAGE 3
Ramp and Taxiway Areas'
1. Plan and install camping area for wheeled aircraft on
property between Kenai Air and the transient parking area.
2. Pave taxiway to CAP hangar.
3. Install compass rose in the North Ramp area.
4. Investigate possible camping area to the north of the
control tower.
Airport in General'
1. Improve aesthetics.
2. Appoint airport information person to insure maximum
exposure of every airport related event.
3. Produce Kenai Airport slogan promoting service and
friendliness.
4. Update Kenai Municipal Airport Master Plan.
Termin&l A~e& -
a. ANt Work Displ&¥ - Thibodeau stated the commissioners
discussed introducing art work at the terminal. Referring to art
work displayed by the miniature platform, Thibodeau asked if
there have been problems with items being stolen from there.
Ernst stated there have been. One is missing now and there have
been attempts for them to be taken from the wall. Ernst added
they have been fortunate in the past in regard to the Lake Clark
and Forestry displays in that they have stayed pretty much
intact. Ernst suggested art work of any value may present
problems.
Thibodeau suggested if there is a way to secure items, there are
many local artists that may be interested in loaning items for
display. Ernst suggested this could be a possibility in the area
where the musk ox and caribou are displayed. Ernst suggested to
start with items of lower value and see how things go.
Ernst stated he has had several artists talk with him about
painting murals on the walls. Ernst added his hesitation with
murals is that something may change and the mural may have to be
painted over. Perhaps several artists paint in different areas
of the terminal.
KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
PAGE 4
Measles stated he had no objection to the concept, however the
City would be liable for any stolen items. Thibodeau suggested a
release could be signed by artists in order that the city be held
harmless. Ernst stated there is security there some of the time.
b. ere&re More Parking - Ernst suggested moving Item No. 4
(create more parking) to an area called "long term goals." Ernst
added this will not be accomplished in 1994 and at this time
there is not a big justification for such a project.
A~TIO~.- There were no additions to the "terminal area" portion
of the list. "Create More Parking" should be moved to another
division called "long-term goals."
Float Planm F&cilit¥- Thibodeau reviewed the items for this area
listed above.
~ ~ a. ~Breshol4 Lighting - Thibodeau stated the threshold
~"· i1 lighting would be at the ends of the runway for night use.
b. ~urn&rcun4 Pi~ni~ A~e& - The turnaround picnic area
would include placement of a trail, grassed area and picnic
tables. Ernst stated this could not be done because the area is
within the safety zone of the landing area for the float planes.
Ernst stated he would not want people inside that area of the
water runway area. This area is now secured from the road area.
Ernst added he did not believe it would be wise to put people out
there in the landing area.
Thibodeau asked if there was a regulation on that. Ernst stated
yes, there are safety zone regulations. Also, pedestrians should
not be mixed with the aircraft area. Ernst stated he would
review the regulations. Ernst added a regular runway's safety
zone is 250' from the centerline of the runway. Ernst stated he
would review the regulations to see if a water runway area is the
same. Ernst added for safety reasons he did not believe that
would be a viable plan.
Bonewell stated she has reviewed Items 2, 3, and 4 (camping area,
picnic area, and fly-in). Bonewell stated she has had discussion
with other individuals who have previously been involved with
issues like these. Bonewell stated she came to the conclusion
that the camping ground and picnic area are ill-advised. There
are safety reasons. Bonewell stated she was also concerned about
security of the areas and protection of the property. She was
aware of theft and vandalism in that area last summer. Bonewell
KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
JANUARY 13, 1994
PAGE 5
was concerned there would be more of that if they encourage that
area to be used. Bonewell stated the property issues need to be
addressed above and beyond offering the general public to watch
planes come and go. There are many other things in the area to
enjoy.
Bonewell asked Ernst if he had been advised of vandalism and
security problems in the area last summer. Ernst stated yes.
The Police Department was advised and they were investigated. It
was determined the damage was done by juveniles.
Holloway stated he believed the picnic area would be for pilots
only and not for the general public. Bonewell stated she would
be in favor of an area for the pilots. Ernst stated he did not
have a problem with an area at the south end of the parking area
for use for the flying public. However, not to go beyond the
security of the fence for the public. Ernst stated there would
be a safety problem if the public was allowed in the area.
c. Improve Aesthetics - Fertilize Lawns/Flowers - The
lawns suffered from the last winter. Suggestion was to have them
fertilized. Ernst stated the lawns around the terminal are
fertilized. A considerable amount of money is spent on the grass
strip. The water runway area has not had any care, but they
anticipate something will be done this summer in connection with
the contract with Ward's Landscaping. The east side of the
emergency access road will be fairly green and nice. The banks
of the basin is difficult to cut after fertilizing without having
a sickle-type blade. Ernst stated he had no objection to the
fertilizing.
Thibodeau suggested flowers be planted around the float plane
basin. Ernst stated flowers are placed there at the sign.
Ramp and Taxiwa¥ Areas:
a. Camping Area/Kenai Air and Transient Parking -
Thibodeau stated that is a fenced-in area. Thibodeau asked if
Ernst was considering changing the fence or putting it between
the road and the fence. Ernst stated it will have to be
discussed later because with the taxiway being adjacent to the
area, the tendency is to walk along that area. This is not
permissible. The area may have to be fenced. This will be only
for the aviation people and not the general public. Development
KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
JANUARY 13, 1994
PAGE 6
must be done in a way general public will not be attracted
(cannery workers). There will have to be a system for checking
them. Ernst stated he had no objections.
b. Pave Taxiwa¥ to CAP Hangar - Thibodeau stated his
reason for placing this item on the list was because the Civil
Air Patrol has given and donated a lot to the Kenai area and
continues to do so. When FAA gave the airport land to Kenai,
they recognized the CAP's involvement and designated this area
for the CAP for as long as they wanted it. This is a volunteer
organization. The taxiway is paved to the edge of the CAP
property. Thibodeau added the CAP property is City of Kenai
property/Airport property. Ernst corrected this statement. The
property is federally deeded to the CAP and is not a part of
Airport Lands. Thibodeau stated according to the deed he has, it
belongs to the City of Kenai and was turned over to the City of
Kenai airport property a long time ago. However, it states it is
expressly eliminated from the control of the City and that the
) property would be used for the CAP. Ernst stated he would review
his files. Ernst added he has always been under the impression
the property has always been federal property which belongs to
the CAP. The reason for it being at the end of the airport is
there was a trade-off from the Cart's shopping mall.
Ernst stated there is no argument that CAP would like to have the
area paved. Thibodeau agreed. Ernst stated the only argument he
anticipated was the property is not Airport Lands because it
belongs to the CAP. Ernst stated he would assume (and will check
this with FAA), it is probably not AIP fundable. The funds would
have to come from the Airport Lands system. Payment for the
project would have to be an outright gift from the City.
Holloway stated he believes the deed states if CAP ever decides
to move out, the land reverts to the City. Ernst stated he will
review the deed. If he is mistaken, there could be a possibility
AIP funds could be acquired. Ernst added there had to be a
reason why the paving stopped at that property line. Ernst
stated the City must get a waiver from the CAP to plow snow in
that area.
ACTION: Scott stated to leave this item on the list and Ernst
will review the deed, etc. Before any decision is made on the
project.
c. Installation of Compass Rose - Thibodeau stated the
project, needs to be coordinated with the "99er~s" as they have
~ ..
KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
JANUARY 13, 1994
PAGE 7
volunteered to help with it. Thibodeau added planes must have
their plane compasses checked once a year. It would be nice to
have one available for pilots' use and the north ramp had been
discussed for that area.
d. Camping Area/North of Control Tower - Thibodeau stated
the Commission discussed this item a few meetings ago. It is
something the Commission would like to investigate and possibly
plan for this year.
e. Ski Lan~ing Area - Holloway stated they also discussed
the placement of a ski-landing area on the north ramp.
Airport In ~eneral:
a. Improve Aesthetics - More flowers, etc.
b. Airport Information Person - Thibodeau suggested an
interested member of the Commission or information officer to
insure maximum exposure of all airport events. Ernst asked if
this would be a volunteer or paid position. Thibodeau stated a
volunteer position. Thibodeau suggested someone from the area
interested in aviation. Thibodeau suggested a free airplane
parking space could be given as compensation.
Scott asked for more specifics as to what the person would be
doing. Thibodeau referred to the readiness test for airplane
crash, etc. A good public relations person could have given the
event more exposure. Other information to report might be
placement of the proposed camping area, etc. Information could
be sent to national publications. Someone to write articles.
c. Airport Slogan - Something to state the goals of the
Kenai Airport (friendliness, service, etc. ) Thibodeau added as a
commissioner, this is one thing he would like to see. Persons
coming into the airport will see this is a nice place and like
flying into the area. Holloway suggested having a bear give bear
hugs.
d. Master Plan Up4ate -
ACTION: Ernst suggested to move AIP projects to the top of the
list before Terminal Area projects. These can be listed as goals
as well. Ernst suggested these projects be listed in the
following manner:
KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
JANUARY 13, 1994
PAGE 8
1. Airport signage project - most critical. Funding has
been requested.
2. Front-end loader funding - awaiting funding.
3. Sander / Plow Truck
4. Master Plan
Ernst suggested under Float Plane Facility a goal to complete the
installation of the automated fuel system. Scott asked if this
project was already funded. Ernst stated the project is funded,
however, the logistics of it and how the fuel will be kept in the
tank (bid it out, etc); getting it installed; building ramps to
the area (this was not included in the initial price). Also
advertising of the fuel system.
Ernst stated there are no projects funded through AIP Funds at
this time. The signage project is the only project for which the
pre-application has been submitted. They will try to piggy-back
the front-end loader on the State. The Master Plan will depend
on how much money is left. Ernst stated he anticipates only
about $600,000 in funding available for this year. Approximately
$450,000 is already spoken for in the. first three projects. It
could be more.
Scott asked if the list needed to be finalized. Ernst stated yes
because the Council requested they be submitted for this packet.
Ernst stated the list will be re-typed and submitted.
Ernst suggested adding installation of the automated fuel System
under Float Plane Basin and delete Item 3, Fly-In; place the
Master Plan Update under AIP Projects; leave Terminal Area, Item
4, Create More Parking under Terminal Area but add in parentheses
"long-term goal." Paving to the CAP hangar could be left in
because it is a goal. Ernst added these are goals, but
logistically, some of them will not get done.
Thibodeau stated that many will not require funding, but
volunteer work. Holloway asked if there is electricity available
for the threshold lighting. Ernst stated he thought it would
have to come from the fuel facility. The FAA Maintenance
Facility is right there, but their equipment is fairly critical
and he did not know if they would want other lines going off
their facility. Their electrical is three-phase. There would
not be a lot of lighting, perhaps four to five lights on each end
which can be remotely controlled.

Scott asked if there were other comments regarding goals and

but it was a consideration.

b. Advertising
Ernst stated he placed this item on the agenda. Ernst advised
the Commission he is working on the budget and is now intending
to place $5,000 in the budget for advertising. Ernst asked the
Commission if they wished any changes to this item. Ernst stated
the choice of how the money is spent on advertising would be up
to the Commission. It could be used for radio and other media.
Ernst stated the Commission used more than $5,000 last year.
However, there were special monies from Council.
Scott requested a motion from the Commission to set the budget
advertising amount.

ITEM
AIRPORT MANAGER REPORT
a. Enplanement/Parking Receipts - Ernst reviewed the
enplanement figures and long-term paid parking receipts to date
from his written report included in the packet.
b. Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Concession
Plan/Terminal Leases
Ernst explained the FAA has required the City to have a DBE plan.
Part of that is to advertise for lease spaces (expiring) at the
terminal. The goal has been ten percent and to this date, it has
not been too successful. Now, however, Payless has applied and
are probably eligible as a DBE and that will help considerably.
Ernst requested the Commission members to review the proposal for
discussion at the February meeting. Ernst requested the
Commission keep in mind the information is basically set and not
much may be able to change. The areas of high bidder situations
may be able to be changed.
Ernst suggested if the Commissioners had questions to contact
himself, Kim Howard or City Manager Manninen.
ITEM 8:
COMMISSION COMME~S AND QUESTIONS
Commissioner Koerber stated she had not heard about DBEs before.
Ernst suggested she review it now and discuss it with him or Kim
Howard. Ernst added this is something that has to be done. The
City has no choice in the matter. Koerber asked what the
advantage is to be designated as a DBE. Ernst stated it
increases the Airport's percentage of DBEs. An unidentified man
from the audience stated he was also a DBE. Ernst stated you
cannot just assume you are a DBE. There is paperwork needing to
be completed.
The unidentified person asked why the DBE designation required.
Ernst answered in order to continue receiving AIP funding from
KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING
JANUARY 13, 1994
PAGE 11
the federal government. Ernst added terminal space must go out
for bid. The car rental agencies are the first to come up.
Their contracts expire June 30. Ernst stated the car rental
agencies will be receiving a copy of the memorandum on Monday.
Forms to be designated as a DBE are available at City Hall. The
applications are reviewed by Kim Howard and the City Attorney to
establish whether or not they are DBEs.
Koerber asked if anyone can bid on the spaces. Ernst stated he
supposed. Unidentified man from the audience asked if the
guidelines are set out in regard to this bidding. Ernst stated
yes. Ernst added they will be receiving a memorandum and
necessary information in regard to the designation. Ernst stated
he included the information in the packet as a courtesy to the
Commissioners so they have a lot of time to review the
information, etc.
Unidentified man ~from the audience asked if this is for
discussion or is the City going to change the leases in July
without any discussion. Is this in concrete or is there a
possibility it will not happen. Ernst stated at this point in
time, it will happen. There is some flexibility. Ernst restated
he did not intend to discuss this tonight. The information will
be sent to the car rental agencies. There will be more than
enough time to review it. Ernst stated he put it in the packet
as a courtesy for the Commission to review.
Unidentified man asked if the City was going to arbitrarily
change the leases or does the Commission have anything to do with
it. Does he have to go to the Commission or to the City. If he
spends his time and goes to the Commission to stop it and the
Commission has nothing to do with it, he is wasting his time.
Ernst stated it is not a matter of stopping it. The FAA has
required the City to do this. It is a federal mandate. The City
will comply in order to not lose AIP funding.
Unidentified man asked if there is documentation that the FAA
requires it. Ernst restated he will distribute memorandums on
Monday with the necessary information. The last two pages are
explicit in defining the City's DBE plan.

to plat Haida Drive as a 50' right-of-way; administration does not have a problem with it;
it ties into an existing stub street off of Tanaga Avenue, which is 50'; the major street

recommendation of having a minimum of paving, rolled curbs, signage and proper
drainage. He added his recommendations are taken mainly from the code.
Goecke asked where Haida Drive comes out at in relation to the townhouses on the end

PUBLIC HEARING
Dave Segura, 1120 1st Street. Segura stated he bought his home on 1st Street to get
away from city traffic and businesses. He said the neighborhood is quiet and has a family
atmosphere. Segura said he feels by letting this business move into the subdivision it will
only pave the way for other businesses to do the same. He said the property is already
an eye sore; there are cars and auto parts in front of it. Segura stated his concerns
regarding homeowners property value and the apartment buildings around the lot having
lots of children getting on and off the school bus in the area. He said young, children
don't know the difference between trespassing and getting in a wrecked car to have fun;
possibly injuring themselves. Segura asked if there is going to be a fence put up around
the lot.
Michael Routh, owner of Payless Car Rental. Routh said he would like to address Mr.
Segura's concerns. Routh stated he was told by the landlord the property was zoned for
this use by grandfather rights. He later found that is not true. Routh said Blue Ribbon
Auto & Repair is no longer in existence at this location. He said all he is doing is washing
and maintaining rental cars. Routh said they are all new cars and they plan to be out of
there at the end of May. He said his lease goes to June 15, and the stuff that is on the
proporty is the landlords; the only thing he has them is a car trailer.

Page 6
Pierce asked if there are any provisions being made to remove the cars that are on the
property. Routh state three of the cars belong to the landlord; one is Blue Ribbon's and
was never taken care of. Pierce asked if the cars are used; Routh stated no. Pierce said
the CUP states July 15, as a deadline for the CUP; what provisions are being made to
locate new facilities by that date? Routh stated he has spoke to Kim Howard about
getting some city property by the airport. He added he would like to put up a metal
building with an attached apartment. Pierce asked if the majority of Payless' business is
generated from the airport; Routh responded yes. Pierce asked what travel, route Routh
is using to and from the airport. Routh said he is using Redoubt and 1st Street. Pierce
asked how many cars he deals with a day. Routh said anywhere from 3 to 5 during the
winter,
Goecke asked for Routh's reason for using Redoubt and 1st. Routh said he travels slow
to keep the cars clean; it's easier to travel slow on that route rather than the Spur,
Goecke stated the neighbors concerns of traffic through the subdivision; he suggested
using the Spur Highway and Wildwood for access to appease the neighbOrs. Routh
agreed to change his route.
Walker asked if the shop is fitted with a wash rack; Routh stated no. Walker asked if
there are any provisions being made for the potentially contaminated materials from the
cars; grease, oil, etc. Routh said there is an existing trap in the floor. Walker asked if
the trap is DEC approved. Routh stated the landlord told'him it is. Walker asked if he
had ever seen any paper work on the trap; Routh responded no. Walker asked if he is
hooked to city water and sewer. Routh said it was put in last fall. Walker asked staff if
he could be hooked up to city water and sewer in the garage. La Shot said there are car
washes hooked to the city sewer system with approved traps. He offered to have the
Building Official take a look at the trap in the Payless building.
Bryson asked Routh if the garage is on the same property as the four-plex; Routh
responded it's on a separate lot. Brgson said the drawing shows the lot as going out to
Wildwood Road. Routh said his landlord told him the property does go to Wil'dwood Road
and he took his word for it. He added this is only a temporarg set-up for the winter.
Bryson asked if Wildwood Road is city maintained; La shot responded yes. Bryson noted
snow 'maintenance is not a reason to run commercial access through a residential area.
ka Shot said he felt Routh is' looking at the speod he is driving; he would like to go slower
to keep the cars clean. Routh said he has never had a problem using the Redoubt & 1st
Stroot as access. He addod there are three poople washing cars and they are not out
hot-rodding the cars.
Goecke asked if Routh would be accept a deadline of on June 1, 1994 to be out of the
building. Routh said he had plann~ to be out sooner, June 1 would be good. He added
his lease on the property is up June 15. Routh said someone in the Planning department
suggested giving him an extra month on the CUP. Goecke said up until that date, the
kids will be in school; after the end of May they will be out of school. Goecke said using.

June 1 would, for the most part, take care of the "kid" problem.
Rhonda Stewart, 1118 1st Street. Stewart said she wants to keep the neighborhood
residential; if one business comes in, others will follow.
Duane Bannock, 1105 1st Street. Bannock said his main concern is traffic and. the
children during the summer. Bannock stated an amendment to the motion, that may be
forth coming, would alleviate some concerns. He said a May 31 cutoff date and access
by Wildwood would be in the best interests of everyone concerned.

property and Wildwood Road so they have no direct access to Wildwood; they will .have
to go on California Street. Bryson stated he wants to see this terminated;, although he
feels it should be terminated in an orderly manner. He said for that mason he will support
the amendment but would not support the motion without the amendment.
Werner-Quade verified with La Shot he will send the Building Official to inspect the drain.
La Shot stated he will.
McComsey said there was a letter issued to Holley; did he lease there before? La' Shot
said Holley is the owner; Routh is leasing from Holley. La Shot added the CUP would
not apply to the owner; only to Payless Car Rental.
Walker stated the Commission should be very attentive to the specifics of just washing
and maintaining cars. He said there should be no one else in there doing work on
vehicles; if the permit is granted. Walker said he is concerned with what is going down
the drains.

prior to the city advisory commissions looking at them. He said the City of Kenai has
been concerned about it and so have the Cities of Soldotna and Homer. La Shot said

formal request similar to what the City of Homer has done; having the cities review before
the Borough reviews. La Shot stated he would recommend doing this.
Walker suggested letting the Council review this.

9_. REPORTS
City Council- Hal Smalley
Smalley said Council apprOVed the vacation for the Oilers and Doyle. Smalley stated a
.pOlice car has been purchast~l from Hutchings Chevrolet; it was a budgeted item.
Smalley said there was a lot of discussion on the Thompson Park Water and Sewer
assessment district. He said in most cases, citizens want the water and sewer but-are
unhappy with the methodology by which the city uses to determine the proposed
assessment. Smalley said someone asked if they were to have their property assessed
and cl~allenged the assessed value the city attached to it, and it lowered their rate, would
the city accept it. Mr. Brown said yes because it would be officially assessed. Smalley
said a lot of residents think everyone should pay the same amount. Mr. Brown told them
the methodology he is using is the way it has always been. Smalley said a couple of
residents didn't want anything to do with city water and sewer.
Smalley said the Council will evaluate the City Manager, City Attorney, and City Clerk.
He added the department heads have been given the opportunity to evaluate the City
Manager also.
Smalley stated on February 5, 9:00 a.m., the Council will be meeting with 'different
commissions on their goals and objectives. Smalley said he presented Planning &
Zonings goals and obiectives with the Council. He said he strenuously discussed the
issue of including Planning & Zoning in the capital improvements.program; he told them

it is in the code. Council said there are public hearings held on the capital improvements
program; Planning and Zoning is welcome to attend. Councilman Bannock stated to
Council it is in the code for Planning & Zoning to participate and if they are not going to
do it that way then the code needs to be changed. Smalley said La Shot was appointed
to the K.R.S.M. Board as the city representative, and Bob Scott was also asked to sit on
the board.
La Shot said there are several different boards related to the K.R.S.M. He said the
Borough has a Coastal Zone Management committee to review land along the river for
habitat protection.
Pierce. asked if the interceptor to Thompson Park was approved by residents in the
subdivision. Smalley said the residents have nothing to do with the intemeptor and it is
not included in their assessments. He said right now the city is in the preliminary process
of determining what the costs are going to be for the individuals hooking up. He added
if a resident is within 200' of city water and sewer; the code says it is mandatory to hook
up. Smalley said their wells have to be cappod and sealod and the septic cl°sed. Pierce
asked if the city set the rate of 10% for assessments. Smalley said yes. La Shot added
there are DEC regulations that have to I~ follow~ when capping wells and closing septic
systems.

.COMMISSION COMMENTS & QUESTIONS
Walker asked if Planning & Zoning is under the same guidelines as elected officials as
far as the open meetings rule goes. Smalley said he believes the Commission falls under
the Open Meetings Act. La Shot was asked to check with the City Attorney regarding the
Open Meetings Act. It was clarified that items on the agenda cannot be discussed
between two commissioners that are on the same commission. Bryson stated to the
Commissioners to watch out for people cornering them on an item; especially when there
is a public hearing involved. He said the best thing to do is to tell them you have no
opinion until the public hearing is held.
Werner-Quade commented it is time to start thinking about a work session to review the
Comp. Plan.
Pierce said he attended a meeting earlier where he saw information that showed new
construction on the Peninsula. He said Kenai's construction was way up and he is glad
the Administration is in support of new construction.
Smalley said he will not be here for the February 23rd meeting.

Public Comments:
Tommy Thompson, 440L Lupine, Kenai. Questioned how the
assessment amounts were formulated. Finance Director Brown
explained the method and the columns as shown on the assessment
list, attached to the resolution. Thompson stated in 1990 the
cost was estimated at $7,000 for property owner. Thompson added
he did not understand how the water and sewer cost was assessed
from the size of the lot. Brown stated there are other ways to
assess the property, however, the Code provides that unless the
Council directs Administration to use another method, the method

ii~ JANUARY 19, 1994
~ PAGE 4
stated in the Code must be used. Brown added another method of
determining assessments was used only one time, however all the
lots were the same size (Inlet Woods).
Brown added the method used is the one prescribed by law. If a
change in the method is ordered, action on the resolution would
have to be postponed until all property owners are informed of
the change, etc.
Thompson stated he felt another method should be used that is
more equitable to finance the project. Thompson added everyone
should be charged for water and sewer depending on the size of
the property. Each household should pay the same. Everyone that
has a lot or house should pay for just that. If another house is
built, the property owner should pay again.
Ro~ RoSe, son, Z4O ~evada, Kenai. Stated he was not familiar with
past projects and asked how past projects compared with this
project. Roberson stated it seems high. Brown stated he did not
compare projects. Brown added not that many assessed projects
have been done. Roberson asked if all grant possibilities have
been reviewed. Brown stated the McCollum project was assessed at
25% cost. The amounts may have been smaller, but the method was
the same.
Roberson asked if they will be paying for future expansion costs.
Brown stated no, the main interceptor, etc. have been eliminated
from this cost.
Roberson questioned the difference in value if a lot has a house
on it and if it is empty. Brown stated he shared Roberson's
concerns. HoweVer, the Charter states the City cannot assess
more than 25% of the fair market value of the property. If a
house is built on that empty lot in two years, the owner will
have a real break (on the assessment for that lot). Brown
advised to. change the Charter, a vote of the people is required.
Monfor stated she lived in Thompson Park for eleven years. Since
she has been on Council, it has been a priority to get a feeder
line into Thompson Park. Monfor added the assessment list looks
expensive, however this may not be the final cost. The bid could
come in lower.
Brown added the assessment can be paid over a ten-year period at
ten percent interest. Roberson asked if all grant avenues been
explored. Answer was yes.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
JANUARY 19, 1994

S¥~ Ayer, Fern Street - Asked if the $600,000 removed from
the project grant and used for the water department was ever
replaced. Brown stated no. Brown added the money was
reallocated for the upgrade of the sewer treatment plant. The
City requested more grant money from Juneau and has received 75%
of the grant money. No more grant money can be used on the
project.
Carroll Murphy, Eisenhower - Stated his lot is one of the
largest lots in Thompson Park (gA). Believes the city should
accept some of the responsibility for the cost of the project
because the people need the water and sewer. The lots were all
substandard in size for water and sewer and that's why people are
having so much trouble. The City should accept financial
responsibility.
Murphy referred to two letters (surveys) received a few years ago
asking whether property owners 'were interested in getting sewer
and water in Thompson Park. The letter gave an estimated cost of
$13,000-14,000. The survey's responses were mostly no. In the
second letter, the cost was estimated at half the first cost and
the survey responses were favorable. Murphy requested the
responses be reviewed. Murphy suggested something else be
figured out. Murphy stated he will be paying approximately
$16,000 for not using the system.
Murphy asked if there will be charges to the property owners for
stub outs. Measles explained there will be a hook-up charge for
both water and sewer. The hook-up charges will be paid by the
property owners. There will also be the connection from the main
to the house which will be the property owners' responsibility.
Murphy suggested it would be fairer for one hook-up fee to be
divided among everyone equally. Murphy stated he did nOt see
what the size of the land had to do with it. Murphy suggested
the surveys be reviewed to see what the big difference in cost
was.
Jerry Thompson, Bishop Drive, Nikiski - Owner of eight lots
in Thompson Park. He received letters for' seven of the lots.
Thompson asked why the frontage lots (on the highway) are not
getting water and sewer. Kornelis stated those lots will be
served in a second phase of the project extending to the 3W
Subdivision. The second phase would not be put in for a number
of years. Thompson asked why the lines will not be placed in the
easements. Kornelis stated a larger interceptor will be needed.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
JANUARY 19, 1994
PAGE 6
Kornelis added some easements have been vacated. Kornelis stated
there are other engineering reasons for the design. Kornelis
invited Thompson to come to his office to discuss the design with
him and the consulting engineer.
Thompson stated he is against the project. Thompson added he
wants the whole area served, or not at all.
David Wallingford, Eisenhower - Asked where the stub-outs
will be. Kornelis stated they will come off the main and will
stop at the property line. It is the owners' responsibility to
put in the hook-up line. There will be two ditches, one for
water and one for sewer. Kornelis added the City must do an
inspection of the hook-up and there is a $100 inspection fee.
Martha Ellen Anderson, Primrose - Asked what choices do the
property owners have to connect. Brown referred to his letter to
the property owners. Brown stated according to the Code, the
property must be hooked up. There is no grace period. The Code
does not give one.
Anderson stated she would like a choice. Anderson stated she
believes it is a part'of their historic system to have a choice.
There are some reasons why some people will not benefit by not
hooking in. And some have good water and sewer now. Brown
stated he cannot make the decision of whether they have a choice
to tap in or not.
Kornelis explained the Code requires everyone to hook in if the
structure is within 200 feet of the line. The Code would have to
be changed. At the time this hook-up requirement was put in the
Code, it was a DEC requirement. There is still a DEC requirement
that there must be a specific distance between the well and
sewer. That is a state law and cannot be changed through the
City.
Dale Sandahl, 4040 Lupine - Asked if the resolution only
deals with setting the assessment district or does it deal with
whether or not the project will be continued. Measles explained
it allows for the continuation of the project and the assessment
district. If the resolution is not passed, the assessment
district will cease and the project will be on hold.
Sandahl stated he is a strong proponent of the project. Sandahl
added he knows and understands the cost of the project. Sandahl
stated he is still in favor of the project.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
JANUARY 19, 1994
PAGE 7
Larry Lowenstein, 120 Nevada - Stated there is a disparity
of assessments. Does not believe it is fair to other people if a
property owner owns two lots with one developed and one not. The
undeveloped lot assessments will be less. Lowenstein added he
has been against the project from the beginning. Lowenstein
added he believes the process has been wrong from the beginning.
He doesn't believe the numbers are real. Everyone should pay the
same. They will pay the bill for empty lots that will be built
on after the water and sewer goes in. Lowenstein added he does
not believe anything illegal is being done, but believes it is
not fair. Lowenstein suggested another look at the process.
Lowenstein stated he does not want to be hooked up to the water.
Brian Olson, Lot Z, Block I - Stated he attended a meeting
at the Eagles with Mayor Williams and Representative Mike
Navarre. The question of what would be an equitable way to pay
for the project was discussed. Olson stated it was his
understanding the assessment process would use the Borough
assessments. Now they are being told the fair market value will
be used. Olson stated he is willing to pay his fair share. His
main question was why using fair market value instead of Borough
assessments.
Brown explained the Charter limitation requires using the fair
market value, not the Borough assessments. Brown stated he did
not know what was said at that meeting.
Smalley stated that meeting was not a city meeting or council
meeting. Smalley added it was not a fund raiser either.
However, Williams and Navarre got together with people to discuss
different matters as well.
Brown stated the fair market value column will be reviewed again
when the final assessment roll is done. That may be in a year.
If more development is done on a lot or the value goes up or
down, the fair market value can change. That includes the
Charter limitation test.
Joe Fisher, 230 Eisenhower - Fisher stated he has concerns
of how the equity of the assessed value is computed. Fisher
stated he believed the major benefactors of the project will be
people who own smaller lots. They will be getting a better
quality of water and meeting current regulations. Because of his
property size, he will be paying more than the small property
owners and getting less benefit for what he will be paying.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
JANUARY 19, 1994
PAGE 8
Measles stated it appears the estimated fair market value has
been escalated to a greater degree on the smaller lots than the
larger lots. Brown agreed. Measles added this reflects they
will be receiving a bigger benefit than the large lots. That
also increases the amount of their assessment. The other side of
equalizing all the lots is the small lots could not pass the 25%
of fair market value test that is required that limits the
assessment that can be placed on a lot.
Measles asked twice if there were any other comments from the
public. There were none. Public comments were closed.
Monfor questioned if Mr. Murphy owns nine acres and his home is
800 feet from the street, why would he not be exempt from the
whole process. Brown stated because it is such a large lot, he
was assessed for the first 150 feet from the street. Murphy was
not assessed for his entire lot. Murphy cannot be eliminated
from the assessment list for the same reason another vacant lot
along the street cannot be eliminated. He has to have some
assessment because he is adjacent to the improvements. Because
the house is situated further back on the property, Murphy would
not have to hook in. Murphy questioned why he should pay for
something he will never use. Brown stated there may be other
vacant lots that will never use the water and sewer either.
Lowenstein - Asked if the assessment will run for a ten-year
period to be paid off. Brown explained if that is what Council
wants to do. Lowenstein asked if it is, why not look at the
whole project in a ten-year program to see who develops the lots
and assess them then. Then everyone would get an equitable pay
out for what they receive.
Measles explained they cannot go back on an assessment into
history. Once the final assessment roll is approved at the
completion of the project, that's what it has to be. Lowenstein
suggested finding another assessor and make them all equal.
Lowenstein added even though the process has been the same for
many years, what makes it right. It isn't equitable. There is a
problem and it needs to be addressed.
Measles stated anything done at this point to change the
procedure will delay the project for at least a year and possibly
longer because it would mean changing City codes.
Kornelis stated the assessment is set up on the cost of the
project. The estimated figures received were determined by a
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
JANUARY 19, 1994
PAGE 9
consulting engineer. The consulting engineer determined the
lineal feet of water and sewer and the cost of the project and
derived the estimated cost of the project to be $2,700,000.
Grants were received for a large portion of that cost. If all
were assessed the same amount, the cost of the project would
remain the same. This would cause one property owner's cost to
be decreased, and another's increased. If all property owners
received the same assessment, it would be $4,130. Those persons
with smaller assessments as figured on the assessment roll
presented, would not be happy about that. The method in the Code
is by square footage. When the ordinance was placed in the Code,
it was decided it was the most equitable way to serve all.
An unidentified lady from the audience asked if the project would
be delayed very long if the lots along the highway were included
in the project and were those property owners asked if they
wanted to be included in the project. Kornelis stated to include
the lots would increase the cost of the project considerably.
Estimates were received to include lots along Spur Highway and
Thompson Place ($442,000). There is no funding to do it. If
added, it would delay the project. Public hearings would need to
be held, etc.
Bannock stated he was struggling with the way the assessments
were computed. However, understands that if that's the way the
Code requires it, it has to be. Bannock asked who personally
establishes the fair market value. Brown stated for purposes of
the preliminary assessment, he did. Bannock asked if he would be
the one to do it for the final assessment. Brown stated yes.
Bannock asked if a property owner could hire an appraiser to make
an assessment, challenge those figures and if found to be
appropriate, could an adjustment be made.
Brown stated yes. Brown added he may enlist the aid of an
appraiser to spot check some of the fair market values when he
does the final roll. Brown added he has wondered about this
during the whole process. There is some room for error. Brown
stated they must understand that in approximately 90% of the
cases, the fair market value could be off maybe tens of thousands
of dollars and it would make no difference because the assessment
is really levied on a square footage method. The fair market
value is only for purposes of the charter test.
Brown used Page 1, fourth line down as an example. There is an
estimated fair market value of $30,000. The Charter limit is 25%
of the fair market value. The Charter limit says an assessment
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
JANUARY 19, 1994
PAGE 10
cannot be more than $7500 on that lot. When he uses the square
footage method in allocating cost and square footage, the
calculated assessment of $5,848 is figured. That is what he
would use (the smaller column). The estimated fair market value
could be substantially less, dropping from $30,000 to $23,393.
The margin of error is $7,000 and it makes no difference.
Bannock stated he will feel comfortable with the ordinance if
there are assurances that any one of the property owners have the
ability to get the fair market value adjusted if they have
substantiation from an appraiser.
Brown stated he will be sending out similar information and
property owners will have the opportunity to challenge it.

other. Monfor stated she spoke with Swarner and was told Swarner
did not have a problem with the evaluation, one way or the other
either. Vice Mayor Measles asked if Council wanted the
department heads to use the form included in the packet. Monfor
stated yes.
There was some question as to what the motion was. Smalley
explained his motion meant to have the department heads use the
evaluation form in the packet to evaluate the city manager.

J-1. Citizens
a. Dan Pitts - President, Kenai Airport Fuel Service.
Pitts stated he was bringing to Council's attention a volatile
situation at the airport. Pitts stated currently his company is
finishing a $500,000 upgrading of a tank farm at the airport.
The project has taken three years to complete. When the project
is finished, it will be to 1998 standards.
Pitts stated he is concerned he will not have customers when the
project is completed. Their major contractor .supplies fuel and
cargo to Nondalton, Trading Bay, and other Bush communities.
Pitts stated the contractor is continually harassed by the
airport manager regarding lines on the airport that no one can
see. Pitts stated he is concerned there is a lack of support
from the airport manager and beseeched council to investigate his
actions. Pitts stated he is concerned there will be more
businesses going to other airports and for one reason.
Bookey asked Pitts if he has discussed this with the new city
manager. Pitts stated he has through the Airport Alliance.
Pitts added ten members of the Alliance met with the city manager
for two and one-half hours. They told their problems and it has
been to no avail. Pitts added they have gone to the Airport

Commission who have agreed with them and have voted in favor of
problems. However, they go no further with Council. Pitts
stated the problem needs to be addressed.
b. Richar4 Perry - Previous owner of Peg & Roy's Laundry.
Perry referred to his letter which was included in the packet at
F-1. Perry stated he assumed Council knows of the sewer problem
at the laundry. Perry stated he and his wife were denied
compliance with the City Code to have the laundry connected to
the sewer line. Perry stated the City should start treating
citizens with honesty. Perry added he has stated Brown and
Graves have blatantly lied and he was there for them to face
their accuser. Perry stated Brown and Graves told him they have
no records. Perry added Graves lied when he told him he did not
have records of what was paid.
Perry requested Council to refund the amounts paid for sewer
service just as though he was 1,000 feet from the sewer line.
The City never required Mr. Tietjen to have a sewer permit and he
was not inspected. Perry stated he was asking the City to treat
him fairly. Perry distributed a letter to Council. There were
no questions from Council.
J-2. Council
Bookey- a. Requested goals and objectives from the
Visitors Center. Freas was requested to write and ask for a

the architect for the Visitors Center) with Manninen and
Kornelis. The contractor has been storing the extra carpet and
needs to move it to make space available for his stock. Bookey
wants to find space in a city building to store the carpet.
Bookey stated it has been suggested to sell the carpeting if
there is no place to store it.
Kornelis stated he has looked for a place to store it and has not
found one. Kornelis suggested storing it in cold storage.
Bookey suggested finding a way to deal with it before the next
meeting.

Lease Application Approval - James H. Doyle
Lot 1, Block 3, Gusty Subdivision #4
On January 20, the City received the attached lease application
from James H. Doyle for the above referenced property. Mr. Doyle
currently leases the property. The lease expires on June 30.
The appropriate good faith deposit and filing fee have been
received. Attached is a map depicting the area.
The Federal Aviation Administration recommends this area remain
free and clear of all obstructions. The FAA allows the City to
issue short-term (10 year) leases to be cancelable for any reason
by the City with 90-days written notice. This is to ensure the
leases have no effect on the airspace or navigational use. The
applicant proposes to continue to store trailer vans on the
property.
The Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of
the lease application at their January 26 meeting. Does the Kenai
Council recommended approval of this lease application, with the
lease to be cancelable for any reason by the City with 90-days
written notice? If so, an appraisal will be ordered and
forwarded to the FAA for concurrence.

Request KPB to Change Platting Review Procedure
Please review attached information regarding the problem of some plats being reviewed
by the KPB Planning Commission prior to the various City advisory commissions' review.
This has been a problem for some time. A draft KPB Ordinance is being proposed to
make it mandatory for the cities to review plats, within their jurisdiction, prior to the KPB.
The Kenai Planning Commission gave their support to the change in the review procedure
and recommended it be forwarded to the City Council. Does the Kenai City Council
request the KPB revise the Code of Ordinances to make it mandatory for City
adviso~ Planning and .Zoning Commissions to revie~ plats before the KPB?

RE:
REQUEST FOR CHANGE IN PLATTING REVIEW PROCEDURE
Due to schedule conflicts in meeting dates, between the KPB and City of Kenai
Planning and Zoning Commissions, the City Staff feels there is not adequate time to
review/comment on items specific to Kenai. In an effort to better serve the public we
would request that plats be reviewed by the City before they are addressed at the
Borough level, unless there are special circumstances (such as abbreviated plats)
which need to be addressed within a time-frame that makes this impossible.
I spoke with Maria Sweppy, KPB Planning Secretary, on the above referenced date.
She informed me that an ordinance is presently being drafted which would require that
plats go to cities before the Borough. The City of Kenai Administration would support
such an ordinance as it would better sente citizens and improve communications
between the City and Borough Planning Departments.
Sincerely,
Administrative Assistant,
Planning Dept.
AGENDA ITEM I.
OTHER/NEW BUSINESS
Commission~ Coleman expressed objection with the Commissioners approving plats before the local planning commission reviews
them. He said that sometimes the Borough Planning Commission approves plats which the Soldotna Planning and Zoning
Commission hasn't seen. Commissioner Coleman felt that it was important for the Borough Planning Commission to have the
comments from the local planning commissions. Commissioner Clutts agreed with Commissioner Coleman except for the
unincorporated areas where the local planning commissions don't hold regular meetings.
Mr. Troeger stated that the City of Homer formally requested that the Borough r~vise the sex:t, ion of the Code of Ordinances which
outlines how plats are processed. This has been a problem for a number of years and has become more pronounced as the cities have
grown larger and assumed more planning activities. Mr. Troeger agreed that the plats needed to have city review before Borough
Platming Commission review-, however, presently the Code is not structured to accommodate this approach. The surveyors and their
applicants have the option to go directly to the city before submitting their plats to the Borough and some do. However, this is not
a requirement. The Borough is compelled by State statute to follow certain procedures, and certain items might need amendment at
the State level..
Mr. Troeger stated that an ordinance is being prepared which would make it mandatory for the cities to review plats before the
Borough. This ordinance will be brought to the Borough Planning Commission for review in about a month. Mr. Troeger recognized
that this was a serious problem, and steps are being taken to resolve it. Mr. Troeger suggested that the Cities of Soldoma and Kenai
submit formal requests similar to the City of Homer. Another option would be to wait until the ordinance is prepared and then
comment.
Conmaism'oner Home pointed out that the Commissioners reviewed numerous items from the unincorporated areas. She thought that
required review by the local planning commissions would encourage the advisory planning commissions to meet on a regular basis.
Mr. Troeger concurred. Rec~atly a plat fi'om the Cooper Landing area was conditionally approved by the Borough Planning
Commission pending comment fi'om the Cooper Landing Advisory Planning Commission, which was received today. Mr. Troeger
pointed out that the cities had enacted ordinances which were unique to each city.
Commissioner Clutts wholeheartedly supported the concept of the advisory planning commissions. However, sometimes these
commissions don't meet regularly which inhibits the review process. Commissioner Clutts expresseA eoneem that a plat would be
delayed waiting for advisory planning commissionreview. He didn't foresee a problem with waiting for comments fi'om the dries.

SOLDOTNA, AK 99669-9707
(907) 283-5761
POSITION PAPER ON HB 366 AND SB 241
Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association (ClAA), having observed and
participated in many meetings of the Board of Fisheries,
understands that allocation of fisheries resources is an extremely
technical matter, involving a large array of complex biological,
physical, limnological and sociological considerations.
The Board of Fisheries was established to determine fair ·
allocations of the State's fishery resources. Members of the Board
and their staff have the legal authority and technical expertise to
properly address allocation issues.
The legislature does not have, and should not be expected to have,
the appropriate expertise and background to properly address
allocative issues. CI3~k agrees with the Kenai Peninsula
legislative delegation that fishery allocations should be done by
the Board of Fisheries and not the legislature.
ClAA has also observed destruction of stream side vegetation, river
banks and associated fish habitat caused by existing levels of
sport fishing activity in the Kenai River. CIAA must, therefore,
out of concern over maintaining productive riverine habitat, oppose
this attempt to significantly increase sport fishing pressure on
the Kenai River.

Dear Mayor Williams and Members of Council:
Having both owned and operated a retail business in downtown Kenai since 1965, I would
respectfully urge caution in your involvement relative to sport and commercial fish allocation
debates.
Like many other merchants on the Peninsula, we certainly welcome tourist dollars; however,
we also owe our own livelihoods to our "year-round" customers.
The Kenai and Soldotna areas are both blessed with a sizable population of these loyal, hard-
working customers who pay taxes and raise families here -- they consist of both commercial
and sport fishermen l
We should all appreciate and welcome their year-round Ioyality and patronage.
Sincerely,
Fred F. Braun
Kenai City Council
Kenai, Alaska
Feb. 1, 1994
Dear Council Member,
Tonight you will consider a resolution regarding legislation mandating an allocation
of Kenai River sockeye salmon to sport fishing interests. I would like to offer some input
on this issue.
Due to the Alaska Board of Fisheries refusal to answer the concerns of the majority
of the Kenai's salmon resource users, non-commercial fishermen, the legislature has been
asked to become involved. As the attached document shows, this request is
understandable.
Please recognize that I am not in favor of the legislature becoming involved in ·
allocation issues. I believe that these issues truly would be better handled by an unbiased,
responsive board. However, given the boards actions I also believe that legislative actions
are needed. Perhaps not through legislating an allocation but rather through compelling the
board to revisit the Cook Inlet allocation issue in a special meeting and reexamining the
issue in a constitutional and legal aspect.
I believe that whatever action you take tonight will be taken seriously by the
legislature and our representatives. I hope that you will take the opportunity to offer more
than the usual rhetoric that has been associated with this issue. That you will take a
leadership role by encouraging the legislature to explore other options available to provide a
fair and reasonable opportunity for everyone in the use of this resource.
The attached document has been forwarded to both the Governor and Mr. Tillion,
the Governors fisheries advisor. I believe that it fairly discusses the issues surrounding
allocation and includes much information often overlooked in discussions of this topic. I
hope that you will take the time to look it over and will find it's information useful.

The.,, Dilemma.,,of A,!aska,'s, Fisheries
Allocation
By Dick J. Bower
January 27, 1994
Pandora must be turning in her grave. The latest volley in the battle for allocation of Cook
Inlet salmon, the threat of legislation, has not only opened her dreaded box but it has dumped it
out, Chopped it up and burned the pieces.
What was inside should give everyone interested in fisheries, resources, or the workings of
state government reason to stop and think. For amid the mis-conceptions, mis-representations,
bias, opinions and fear that have spilled from the box into the media and legislative personal
opinion messages a few truths have surfaced. Truths based on facts and such lofty ideals as
reality, fairness, democracy, and the State Constitution.
One truth, however scary, is that fisheries allocation is a political matter. Long before
limited entry, "biological management" or the Cook Inlet Management Plan some long time
A~ · · o
laskan s got together and composed our State ConstltUt~on. In Article VHI of that document they
outlined how the resources of the State would be developed and managed. In the words of these
founding fathers "The legislature shall provide for the utilization, development, and conservation
of all natural resources belonging to the State, including land and waters, for the maximum benefit
of its people." If we accept the idea that fish are a resource then we must accept that the legislature
has the responsibility to assure that they are managed accordingly. The Constitution guarantees
our fight to have politically managed r~sources. '
The legislature then, having a full plate of other concerns, created a Board of Fisheries and
vested in it the authority (keep in mind that you can delegate authority but not responsibility) to
manage the State's fisheries resources in accordance with it's constitutional mandate. This
authority, of course, includes fisheries allocation. The seven member Board is appointed by the
Governor, a political position, and is confirmed by the legislature, a political body. It's members
are required by statute to be appointed "on the basis of interest in public affairs, good judgement,
knowledge, and ability in the fieM of action of, the board, and with a view to providing diversity of
interest and points of view in the membershi ' AS 16 05 221 a
· . p. ( . . ()). Note that they are not hired
for b~ologlcal expertise but are political appointments and nowhere in the appointment criteria is
biology mentioned. The truth is that the Board is a political body and by statute politics is involved
in allocation.
Another truth is that allocation is an economic matter. Commercial fishing interests have a
long history of aggressive, organized involvement in the allocation and regulation process.
Whether on the board or in court, through lobbyists or lawyers the commercial interests have
carefully developed and protected their economic interests. This involvement has paid off in past
appointments to the board. Of the seven current members at least five can be said to have a
financial interest in the commercial fishing industry. The Board's refusal to place recent petitions
and proposals fi'om non-commercial groups on it's agenda, to even allow a public hearing in one
of it's meetings, would seem to reflect the prevailing interests of the Board. ~
We are told, however, by Board Chairman Elias that the Board would like to take up the
allocation issue but, unfortunately, the Board can only take up these issues when the proposals are
based on biological reasons. Something that none of the petitioners has been able to do. The truth
is, this is hogwash. The Board itself has adopted guidelines under which it will consider
regulatory changes.
These guidelines are included in 5 AAC 39.999. The code states "The board will accept an
agenda change request only (A) for fishery conservation purpose or reason; (B) to correct an error
in a regulation; (C) to correct an effect that was unforeseen when a regulation was adopted." (5
AAC 39.999 (1)) Further, in section two it states "the board will not accept an agenda change
request (thaO is predominantly allocative in nature in the absence of new information found by the
board to be compelling." Nowhere in the guidelines is the word biology mentioned. The closest
the guidelines come to a biological basis is the term "conservation "which through legal action has
been defined in the statutes as implying "controlled utilization of a resource to prevent it's
exploitation, destruction or neglect." (Kenai Peninsula Fisherman's Coop. Assn. v. State, Alaska
198~)
Looking then at these guidelines we can see several reasons that the board should
consider the proposals and petitions of the non-commercial interests. The great imbalance evident
in the present allocation would certainly seem to be exploitive on the part of the commercial
interests and this fact would permit consideration of proposed regulatory changes under guideline
A. The fact that the current allocation ratio appears to so conflict with the
constitutional and statutory requirements of fair and reasonable opportunity, has
forced the 'legislature to become involved. This must be one of the unforeseen effects
mentioned which allows consideration of changes under guideline C. Finally, the fact that non-
commercial interests are concerned about the inequity of past allocation practices would certainly
seem to be compelling new information were the Board at all interested in doing the fight thing by
fulfilling its responsibilities.
The truth is, the Board has adopted guidelines as policy which are subjective at best and
when approached to make changes which will upset the status quo and may effect previously
granted proprietary economic protections has refused to take the logical course of addressing the
issue. If we accept that old saw that "them that has the gold, rules" then allocation is most certainly
an economic issue and the idea of an unbiased Board at this point is questionable.
A further truth that emerges is that allocation is not a biological issue, unless you
are allocating fish between escapement and harvest. In reality our fisheries resources
fall into two management categories. Biological management and what could be called harvest
management.
Again, a look at the Constitution tells us that "Fish, forests, wiMlifle, grasslands, and all
other replenishable resources belonging to the State shall be utilized, developed, and maintained on
the sustained yieM principle, subject to preferences among beneficial uses."(Art. Vili Sec. 4)
This sustained yield principle is the basis then for the biological management of the resource and is
the foundation of the concept of escapement.
Biologists have determined that to ensure the sustained yield of the resource, each salmon
producing river or fiver system must have a minimum number of fish returning to the spawning
grounds. This number is known as the minimum escapement. Because the exact number of
spawning fish necessary is unknown, counting methods are not 100% accurate, and many fish
counted down stream will not reach the spawning beds due to predation, fatigue, or injury or other
reason, these same biologists have established a target escapement range which will allow for
perpetuation of healthy runs. Once the target escapement has been met any remaining
fish are not biologically necessary, can be considered over escapement~ and
becOme the harvestable resource. Management of this harvestable resource then is
the basis for allocation decisions.
Now let's examine allocation in the context of harvest, not biological, management where
it tightly belongs. After sustained yield concerns, the number two priority of the Board of
Fisheries is allocation of the harvestable resource between user groups. While many would have
us believe that this includes commercial fishermen, sport fishermen, personal use fishermen,and
subsistence fishermen, the truth is these fish are allocated between two user groups,
commercial and non-commercial fishermen. Commercial fishermen sell their allocation
while non-commercial fishermen keep their's for their own use. Pure and simple.
AS. 16.05.251 (15(e)) establishes by law the Board's authority to allocate fishery
resources among user groups. It states that the Board "shall" adopt criteria for the allocation of
fishery resources and "shall" use the criteria as appropriate to particular allocation decisions. And
it goes on to suggest some criteria that the Board may look at with this regard. Included are
such factors as the history of each fishery user group, the number of residents
and non-residents past and future who have or will participate in the fishery, the
importance of each fishery in providing residents the Opportunity to obtain fish
for personal and family consumption, the importance of each fishery in providing
recreational opportunities for residents and non-residents, and more. In fact, the
majority of the factors mentioned in this statute seem to indicate the importance of allocating
fisheries resources to the benefit of the general public or non-commercial user.
The same statute in paragraph 15 (d) states that regulations regulating resident or non-
resident sport fishermen, 'tnust, consistent with sustained yieM and the provisions of AS
16.05.258, provide a fair and reasonable opportunity for the taking of fishery resources by
personal use, sport, and commercial fishermen."
With this in mind, let's look more closely at the present allocation breakdown. Taking
Cook Inlet as an example we see that historically the Kenai River produces the lions share of the
harvestable sockeye stocks. Thus it is the most visible and hotly contested resource at this time. A
look at the Kenai River Sockeye Salmon Management Plan adopted by the Board of Fisheries and
codified in the Alaska Administrative Code tells us that the commercial gillnet fishery shall be
managed to obtain an escapement range of 400,000 to 700,000 fish "to insure an adequate
spawning escapement and provide for a recreational harvest".(5 AAC 21.360 (a)) Interestingly,
we see that the Board has introduced yet another user group, recreational
fishermen. One not defined in the related statutes.
Looking further we see that in a year when the projected escapement, not harvest mind
you, is less-than 400,000 fish the code requires that "the departtnent shall close the recreational
fishery for sockeye salmor~" (5 AAC 21.360 (c 1)) No mention is made of additional restrictions
on the commercial harvest yet the department is projecting that the escapement will not meet
minimum sustained yield levels.
The code goes on to state that in a year when the projected escapement is within the
acceptable 400-700,000 range recreational fishermen will receive a "guideline harvest often
percent of the projected escapement". (5 AAC 21.360 (c2)) Note again that this is not of the
projected harvest but of the escapement. Using this figure, recreational or more appropriately non-
commercial, fishermen receive 40-70,000 fish or 3.5 percent of the harvest in a bad year with a'
projected harvest of 2 million fish. In a good year with a harvest of 4 million fish this
percentage will drop to 1.75 percent.
Now look at the numbers of fishermen participating in the harvest. Using figures
presented by the United Cook Inlet Drift Association, 3,500 harvesters currently .participate in this
fishery. By contrast, the Alaska Sportfishing Assoc. identifies 133,000 licensed sport anglers in
southcentral Alaska. Comparing these numbers shows us that commercial fishermen make up
2.63 percent of the total potential users of Kenai River sockeye salmon. Put these figures
together and we see that the Board of Fisheries has allocated 2.63 percent of the users between
96.5 and 98.25 percent of the harvest while the largest potential user group the 97.37 percent who
are non-commercial share only 1 3/4 to 31/2 percent of the harvest.
Commercial fishing interests have said recently that by becoming involved in allocation the
legislature is bowing to pressure from a special interest group. According to these figures
who exactly is the special interest group. If you define special interest as a relatively small
group of inte~sted parties utilizing political action (lobbying) to further their interests then the
answer seems fairly clear. The truth is that a special interest group has long dictated
the allocation of this resource. And in true democratic (this is still a democracy) style it is the
people who are acting to protect the common interest.
The truth is that fish allocation is a political issue no matter who is making the decisions.
That the legislature has been forced into action by an unresponsive Board of Fisheries shows that,
in a democracy with a system of checks and balances, the people do have recourse. It shows that
the same system which allows the people to protect an industry by limiting competition thru
constitutional amendment Will also protect those people from an exploitive special interest.
Yes, along with the emotionally based bias and opinion, the mis-representation and mis-
conceptions which have so carelessly been spilled from this "Pandora's Box" a few truths have
emerged. They will not be popular with certain interest groups. They will have far reaching
impact on the way this State manages its fisheries resources. And they have emphasized the point
that given facts and truth, emotion and opinion just don't hold water. The final truth is, "the truth
can be so limiting".

K~nai $_~ur Highway- Swires to Tinker
Council meeting of February 2, 1994
I met with Keith Moberg and Dean Redick of DOT/PF today to discuss the lighting
between Swires and Tinker. The state will install some intersection lighting on the Spur
Highway in this area, but will not maintain the lights, nor pay for the power for the lights.
I will have a map of this section of the Spur at the council meeting, which will show which
lights the state will pay the O & M costs for, and which ones they will not. They said they
will only pay for O & M costs for the lights at the road transitions of this section of the
Spur. They will, however, pay the O & M costs for the continuous lighting from Tinker to
Bridge Access Road.
I think we should tell the state to go ahead with the intersection lighting and worry about
the O & M costs later, lam not sure I should write another letter complaining about how
DOT/PF is reducing the project to save costs. Every time I write such a letter, they just
cut more.

Kenai Reoreation Center
I have visited with Bob Springer about the questions raised by
staff about the air quality at the Rec Center. The following
action has thus far been initiated.
1. MSDS sheets were requested and received from Russ
Construction Co., Inc. and Peninsula Flooring. Bob discussed these
reports with DEC and a representative from Alaska Health Project
(AHP). AHP requested copies be sent to them for analysis and at
this time nothing has been received back from them. Both DEC and
AHP felt if there was adequate ventilation in the building there
should be no health risk.
2. To further improve the air quality in the Recreation
Center, the Parks and Recreation Department has ordered an air
purification unit to be installed in the reception area. This unit
should be on hand and installed within a week to ten days.
3. Bob plans to have our heating and ventilating system
checked to see if some controls might be used to give a continuous
air circulation in the building during the winter months. At the
present time, air is circulated only when the heating units are
operating. In the summer, we are able to switch to manual to get
continuous circulation.

The Honorable John Williams
Mayor of the City of Kenai
210 Fidalgo Avenue
Kenai, AK 99611
Dear Mayor Williams:
This letter is our second progress report on the Cook Inlet
Fisheries Economic Values Study, which we are sending to
persons who have expressed an in~eres~ in the s~udy. As you
know, the sgate legislature authorized $300,000 to fund an
economic study of Cook Inlet salmon fisheries. The general
purpose of the study is to look at the economic values of the
salmon fisheries in Cook Inlet. ADF&G has been asked to put
together the Request for Proposal (R~P) for the economic study
and to administer the funds. The study will be don~ by a
contractor. A 9ublic meeting was held on the study in
Anchorage and in Soldotna in September 1993. Since then, an
ADF&G working ~'oup of economists and other staff has been
meeting to develop an RFP. The working group has been
considering how to refine the scope of the project, so that it
has ~he best chance to produce a successful and useful study.
The project scope that has taken shape looks like this. The
economic study probably will analyze several defined scenarios
concerning late run red salmon and king salmon on th~ K~nai
River. These scenarios met specific selected criteria: (1
they are important to user grou~s and embody management issues
that might reasonably be considered by the Board of Fisheries,
(2) there is substantial, detailed historic management
information available on them, (3) the magnitude of harvesting
impacts are large enough that economic models may be able to
differentiate between benefits and costs to interest groups,
and (4) it appears possible to analyze these fisheries within
the constraints of the authorized funding.
The RFP will request that a contractor analyze the economic
effects resulting from a wide range of red and king salmon
abundance and price scenarios, and different management
alternatives. Under these scenarios, the economic effects of
the fishing opportunities to different user groups can be
analyzed and compared.
The project probably will involve a cost and benefit analysis
11-K I OLH
Page Two
January 21, 1994
from an Alaska accounting stance, and an analysis of the
9otential effects on income and emgloyment on the Kenai
Peninsula and in Alaska of the fisheries under the different
scenarios. Impacts likely will be analyzed for different
types of commercial fishing groups, recreational fishing
groups, and related interests. The project will require an
analysis of several existing data sources on the fisheries.
Depending on responses to the RFP, the project could require
a survey of a sample of persons from the different user groups
or businesses.
As stated above, the study will be done by a contractor. The
projec~ will be subject to review at significant milestones
during its progress by department economists, biologists, and
other scientists drawn from several divisions.
The schedule of the project is also taking shape. If things
stay on schedule, an RFP probably will be released during
February or early March. The study will be awarded soon
after. Initial survey work on the study probably will begin
during early summer.
At this stage in the project, the Department of Fish and Game
would like to thank the public for the great interest in the
study. There was a useful exchange of ideas on study scoge,
methodologies, accounting stance, and other topics at the
public meetings. Several letters and phone calls also have
been received byADF&G working group members. The develogment
of the study has benefited from these types of contributions.
If you have questions or comments about the progress of the
study, please feel free to contact ADF&G:

Kenai Airport Fuel Services & Alaska Flying Network
403 N. Willow Street, #1
Kenai, AK 99611
RE: CITY MANAGER ADDRESSING YOUR ON-GOING KENAI MUNICIP~.,
AIRPORT'S MANAGEMENT CONCERNS; PROPOSED ACTIONS
On January 24, 1994, I spent nearly one hour with Dan Pitts
specifically listening to concerns/complaints about the airport
manager and enforcement of the airport road. While I may agree
with your right to express your legitimate concerns, I firmly
disagree with your conclusions. You have rights to operate without
"undue" harassment by either the Kenai City management or airport
management.
On the other hand, I also believe that you have the responsibility
as an airport lessee to abide by both the terms of your airport
lease as well as by your March 23, 1993 special use permit; your
limited, non-exclusive right to use a 20,000 square foot area,
crossing the airport roadway, adjacent to your leased airport
property. In short, you are allowed to block the road within the
special use permit area while fueling planes. However, you are
restricted in the limited amount of time that you can close the
roadway due to these fueling operations. Furthermore, planes
should not be left blocking the road unnecessarily.
As we discussed on January 24, 1994 you are also allowed to do dry
cargo loading in the special use permit area. However, you cannot
close the road for dry cargo loading operations. Recently, both
the fueling and dry cargo loading operations have created
considerable consternation and confrontation between you, your
employees and the airport manager. It must stop!
I feel that the "road issue" on the airport is significant. It
appears that your perception of the road and its existence and
necessity for safety purposes does not agree with the City
Council's establishment of the road for safety purposes. This
airport road was discussed on June 16, 1993. The Kenai City
Council took action to establish this airport roadway on the east
side of the parking apron. Also, the City Council directed Airport
Manager Randy Ernst NOT to eliminate the road. Since then, there
have been several occasions that the Everts Air blocked the
vehicular roadway with dry cargo as well as with their aircraft.
Yesterday, January 25, 1994, you called me, somewhat irritated and
excited, stating that Cliff Everts is ready to move his operation
to Soldotna and that I should be concerned about Everts' threatened
move. I am concerned with those economics.
However, my main concern is with the continued proper, permitted,
and safe airport operations. This protects the City's economic
integrity as well as limits its future legal liability exposures on
airport property. We both share this airport safety concern. I
have shared this with you and the Kenai Airport Business Alliance
members since our July 27, 1993 meeting. (See the September 7,
1993 letter sent to the KAB~ spokesperson, Katherine Y. DeLacee,
copied for your information.)
I am chagrined and stunned by your recent comments at the January
19 City Council meeting that your July 1993 and prior meetings with
the City Manager had been to no avail. Naturally, I see the issue
differently, as I have responded to your concerns in a September 7,
1993 letter that I have provided to you. Furthermore, I have an
open-door policy and open-telephone policy. That is, I return
phone calls and I set up meetings and have done so consistently and
regularly whenever you had an issue to discuss with me concerning
airport problems and concerns. That is, simply, my job.
I disagree with you on your interpretation of the results and I
feel strongly that your non-exclusive special use permit area for
loading fuel and dry cargo should be complied with. Unfortunately,
your interpretation seems different, and the airport manager has
the unpopular role as the City's compliance officer for the airport
leases and special use permits. I can understand that no one likes
being caught in any violations and therefore, the airport manager's
position may be unpopular when his duties force him to enforce more
of the more unpopular but necessary leases and special use permit
conditions. Yet, this is his job. To paraphrase: "An airport
manager is an airport manager is an airport manager." I know you
understand that, and I know you agree that, regardless of who is
the airport manager or city manager, they have an overall City-wide
responsibility and accountability to the general public that
transcends more than appeasing the individual lessees at the
airport. This is an over-riding concern for the welfare of the
general public and for limiting Kenai's overall safety and legal
liability at the City of Kenai's airport.
Finally, therefore, I would hope that in terms of resolving this
issue, that you will approach your subcontractors and your agents
in a spirit of cooperation and collaboration, rather than
confrontation and threats of actions or volatile situations at the
airport. It is your responsibility to point out to your aqents and
your subcontractors that you have an obligation and a
responsibility to comply with your leases and also with your
special use permit. If your subcontractors do not comply, by
breaking your leases and special use permit, then by your action or
inaction you may place your special use permit and your leases in
peril. The City does not look at this lightly. You have a
significant investment to protect. Compliance is part of the rules
of airport operations. It protects your investment as well as the
City's.
Please stop the unwarranted, incessant carping. Stop the arbitrary
and sporadic airport manager/City management bashing. Start
accepting your responsibility to control your employees and your
subcontractor's actions. Work within your lease and special use
permits. I will control the airport manager. You control your
agents and I am sure it can work.
Thank you for your input and concerns about the Kenai airport
operations. I am looking forward to meeting with you and Mr.
Everts at 1:30, Friday, January 28, 1994.
Kindest personal regards,
Thomas J. Manninen

Dear Ms. DeLacee:
Re: City Manager's Response to Kenai Airport Business A11ianoe,s
(F, AB&) Con~erns about A~rport Management
Thank you for the opportunity to listen to KABA's concerns about
airport operations at the July 27, 1993 meeting. I have shared
your concerns with the airport manager. I hope these comments
address KABA's concerns and will allow us to continue a shared
vision: "TO DO WHAT~ IT TAKES, TO WORK TO~ETHER TO MAKE THE
KENAI AIRPORT A MODEL OF SAFET~ FO~ THE TR~VELIN~ PUBLI~, WITH
COOPERATION AND COLLABORATION AMON~ THE USERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS,
OWNERS AND REPREBENT2%TIVEH."
I have some concerns over the KABA group's perception of the
"unsympathetic airport administration.,, I have had several frank
and candid discussions regarding airport operations with the
airport manager since the July 1993 meeting. I have been assured
by the airport manager that the airport administration will work
with the lessees, airport commission and city management to improve
public relations without shirking airport management responsibility
and accountability.
Meeting airport regulations and avoiding liability are
difficult/dual concerns of airport/city management. Liability
"i e. a liability occurrence
issues generally have "long-tails, . ,
may not be resolved for a number of years. The adversarial
proceedings resulting in a final resolution may or may not be
satisfactory; however, it will be costly! Therefore, it is
procactively responsible for airport management to identify,
respond and meet these potentially costly, expensive and high-
exposure airport concerns. Nonenforcement or benign neglect on the
city's part is the easier but non-responsible path. I support the
airport manager pointing out these difficult enforcement issues.
The airport manager has been sensitized to these airport public
relations needs - he is committed to balancing meeting public
relation needs with active enforcement. Nevertheless, I need and
appreciate your continued dialoque on airport matters too.
According to the airport manager, the glass partitions requested by
KABA are currently being installed between the car rental booths at
the airport.
Please advise me how the city/airport administration can continue
active "coalition building" with KABA, the airport lessees/users,
the airport commission and the city council to make the Kenai
airport, and the city of Kenai, continue its hard-earned ALL
AMERICA ~ITY designation.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact airport
manager, Randy Ernst directly. Thank you.

I just received your January 12, 1994 letter last week, concerning the city's project of
running water and sewer to Thompson Park.
You are correct in that the city did not notify you that water and sewer is not going into
Thompson Place. We have only notified the 146 people that are involved in the local
improvement district that will be receiving the water and sewer. Thompson Place will not
have water and sewer services as part of this project. The lots along the Kenai Spur
Highway in Thompson Park and Valhalla Heights Subdivision will not have water or sewer
service as part of this project either.
The City of Kenai is using two state grants and almost all remaining funds from its water
and sewer capital improvement account to pay for this project. We have used all of the
available funds for the Thompson Park Water and Sewer project as it is presently
designed.
The next phase of running water and sewer to East Kenai would be to construct main
interceptor lines from Togiak along the Spur Highway east to Thompson Place, Sungate
Park, etc. plus the subdivisions on the other side of the highway.
Please feel free to stop by Kenai City Hall or call me to discuss this matter at your
convenience.

Re: Water & Sewer in Thompson SUbdivisiOn

We reside in a dwelling that existed before many of the homes in the
Thompson Park Subdivision. It was renamed Thompson Place, a part of'
Thompson Subdivision when the rOad w~U~graded., we also own the very.
last piece of commercial property on th~_.~ighway at mile 5 1/2 just past
the 'One Stop'. It is our understanding that Water and sewer is going into
Thompson Subdivision but we have never had any sort of formal'noti
that water and sewer is or is not go'ing'ii'~r~C° Thompson Place 'at least not
that we are aware of. ~"
We certainly hope that we are not being simply "excluded" and that. perhap$'i"'
this is an oversight. Please advise us as soon as-possible with information
so we might at least have the opportunity to pursue this in'much more detai
~f necessary, Thant<s!

Dear Friends,
Alaska is blessed with many wonderful volunteers -- now's the time to honor these
faitht~ii Alaskans. ~i hanks to volunteers giving so generously of' tl~eir time anO talent.
our corner of the world is a better place in whicla to live.
Too often our volunteers' efforts are overlooked or forgotten. The beautiful part is
that it doesn't bother these "unsung heroes" because a thank you is not the motivation
for volunteering. They just want to be of sen'ice and help! Volunteers are one of
Alaska's most valuable resources.
Let us recognize some of the outstanding community volunteers around our state
through the First Lady's Volunteer Awards Program.
Please take the time to nominate a volunteer you feel deserves special recognition
for outstanding service in your community.
In this way we can bring to the attention of every community the worthwhile
contributions of these fine, caring Alaskan volunteers.
Thank you for assisting our First Lady's Volunteer Awards Committee by nominating
a special volunteer.

expenses. It appears that revenues nearly cover expenses provided
the housing revenue figure is relatively firm. Once money is ,

Alaska Municipal League
1993 Local Government Conference
Hos~ Committee Post-Conference Report
The municipalities of Kenai, Soidotna and the Kenai Peninsula
Borough shared hosting of the 1993 Alaska. Municipal League (AML)
Local Government COnference staged at the Central Peninsula Sports
Center, 502 Kalifornsky Beach Road, Soidotna, Alaska. Local
government representatives from the municipalities formed a
conference host committee of about twelve active members. The
committee contracted the Kenai Peninsula Tourism Marketing
,.
Council to serve as the housing bureau and K. Scott & Associates,
Inc. to provide overall conference coordination in behalf of the host
committee. This report summarizes the work of the host committee
from the perspective of meeting Alaska Municipal League's
conference site requirements dated April 30, 1992.
This is the first AML Local Government Conference held in rural
Alaska. Previous conferences have been in Anchorage, Fairbanks and
Juneau; suburban to urban size communities with centralized
housing and developed public transportation systems. Although the
driving distance across Anchorage is probably equal to the eleven
mile distance between Kenai and Soldotna, conference attendees in
Anchorage do not drive that distance because sufficient housing
exists in a core area near the conference site. The Kenai-Soldotna
Conference in contrast required housing conference delegates in
numerous locations some long distances from the conference site.
The AML Conference Host Com.mittee met the challenges of hosting .a
370 delegate conference through excellent committee cooperation,
supportive and giving com.munities and their ingenuity and skilled
leadership.

time sporting events) from their trade show booth so that folding
Chairs could be used. The chairs were comfortable, but cold as the
metal legs conducted the frozen sub-floor temperature.
Conference tables supplied from multiple sources, were topped with
heavy white vinyl material providing a uniform and pristine look.
Only trade show, food service and head tables were skirted.
The covered ice floor was compartmentalized by arranging pipe and
drape walls behind trade show walls. The look was pleasing and the
floor use. was efficient. Sound carried over the eight foot drape
walls however, making it difficult to hear speakers when
simultaneous presentations were going on.
Most important to the success of the conference was the quality of
the sound equipment. Twin Cities Productions provided ample
podiums with mics and amplifier/microphone equipment for the rink
"dining room" and "auditorium."
Catering
Meal contracts for coffee service, lunches and a banquet were
contracted directly by AML. All meals were adequate, however
kitchen facilities at the CPSC are small and insufficiently equipped.
to feed 450 people. The banquet was served in less than 20 minutes
however and the consensus was that the food was ample, tasty and
served hot. Caters supplied table linens for all meals and the coffee
service contractor also monitored water pitcher service for head
tables in the five meeting areas.
When multiple caters are providing meals to the conference it is
helpful to hold a pre-conference meeting to address expectations of.
the conference host committee. All but one contractor attended the
session held the Friday preceding the conference and organizers
attribute this generally hassle-free phase to having this briefing.

Conference in 1991. When that option became unavailable, the .Host
Committee contracted with Laidlaw Transportation to provide
school buses for shuttling conference delegates between the
conference site and their accommodations Wednesday thr~ough Friday.
The iow number of riders was disappointing to the host committee
particularly in relationship to the cost for providing the service.
Host committee members reported receiving complaints about the
infrequent number of trips offered between the Central Peninsula
Sports Center and' hotel. Transportation services were $2,164.40,
$425.40 more than estimated by the Transportation Committee.
Unanticipated stand-by time due to a few conference events falling
behind schedule caused minor delays. Transportation schedules were
printed and~ distributed in the same fashion as mini-programs. In
addition to bus transportation, conference participants rented
approximately 200 vehicles from area car rental companies.
Housing Bureau
The Kenai Peninsula Tourism Marketing Council was contracted to
provide housing bureau (accommodations booking) services. Area
hotels, motels and bed and breakfast agreed by contract to pay a 10%
booking fee. For this service, the council was paid one half of the
funds generated by the commission. The budget also provided for
$300 for phone, fax and postage. The primary responsibilities of the
housing bureau were to design a registration system (including
contracting with room providers and creating registration packet
information), procurement of room blocks, making room
assignments and invoicing and collecting 10% commission from
lodging contractors.
Early budget projections for lodging revenue estimated $20,000
income. Later scenarios reduced the anticipated amount to $13,500.
As of January 14th, the housing bureau reports Collections of
$9,640.20. A separate reported will be filed by the housing bureau
including data relative to impact of group conferences to the area's
economy.

Host Committee Post Conference Report
9:05AM to 10-45AM Friday, January 14, 1994
Present:
John Torgerson, Kathy Scott, Rich Underkofler, Bonnie Golden, Loretta Harvey, Andrew
Carmichael and Sharon Baldwin; Dave Karp and Kim Booth participated via conference
call from Seward; Lions Club Representatives Bob Harrison and LeRoy Godes were also
present.
Underkofler requested notes be taken for documentation and historical value should the Sports Center
wish to house another convention in the future.
K. Scott distributed and reviewed her draft post conference report with the host committee members. It
was ~noted the AML conference held at the Sports Center in November of 93 was the first rural
government conference.
Torgerson mentioned to the Lions representatives they may wish to utilize early hookups for RVs during
their convention week of May 11 through 14th. It was noted that the Postmasters also would be meeting
in our area, expecting approximately 30 participants; as well as a Republican statewide convention is
planned for the Soidotna/Kenai area on the 20th of May. Torgerson will make some calls in an attempt to
find out where the Republicans will be meeting.
K. Scott suggested to Underkofler the City may wish to consider no longer equipping the kitchen at the
Sports Center; but rather only providing it with the bare essentials and let the caterers provide their own
linens, chairs, place settings, etc. Currently them are not enough dishes to provide for meals for large
events. Underkofler said it's not feasible to assign someone to inventory the kitchen equipment each time
it has been used by a caterer, it may be practical economically to give one caterer an exclusive franchise on
the sports center.
K. Scott also mentioned that skirting for the stages and a presentation set of flags would be appropriate
equipment for the Sports Center to acquire if the intent is to host future conventions. Also, overhead
projectors, flip charts, easels, VCR/monitors and utility carts are needed.
Dave Karp and Kim Booth joined in the meeting via conference call at this time. Karp reported that all
revenues from the housing should be received by the end of the day. This amount totals $9,640.20.
Torgerson asked why the amount is different than the projected amount. Karp replied that collecting is
cumbersome and the honor system is used. All outstanding receipts for housing will be collected by Karp
and Booth on their return to Soldotna later this afternoon.
·
Underkofler asked if the idea of markup on the hotel rooms proved worthwhile. Karp replied that if funds
received did not have to be shared with another group, it would prove profitable. Karp believes the
conCept is valid. Underkofler informed Karp representatives of the Lions Club were present to gain insight
toward their upcoming Lions Convention in May.
K. Scott asked Karp how many hours were expended in overseeing the housing project. Karp replied that
a greater number of hours than anticipated were expended because of the fact that the AML Convention
was a first experience and various forms had to be drafted as well as troubleshooting different areas all the
way. This convention has been a learning experience and Karp believes everyone involved with the
process is now mom knowledgeable concerning the "how tos" for next time.
AML Host Committeee Post-Conference Report
January 14, 1994 AML
Underkofler said he 'would never authorize another fixed sum contract for the Sports Center, but rather it
would be based on a time and materials basis.
Bob Shastany's estimate for personnel costs was discussed. Andrew Carmichael said in his review of
records, it appeared the overrun was all in overtime for having people available for support. K. Scott
mentioned that on several occasions she noticed support people didn't look too busy, and wondered if
possibly there was one or two people too many available. Carmichael will check with Dale.
K. Scott complimented Bob Shastany and his staff as well as Rowen Decorating with supplying superior
people to work with.
Torgerson and Scott will work on a comparative budget and the actual end of conference budget.
Underkofler will use these figures to evaluate the facility to see if it's economical to host conventions of
this type. Accurate figures are required for proper evaluation as well as to base any future conventions on.
LeRoy Godes from the Lions said their organization would be interested in the transportation figures.
Underkofler would like feedback from the local hotels on the AML conference. K. Scott said that a total
quality survey of the hotels could be performed including their feelings on the 10% markup.
The post-conference report will be finalized and distributed to the Committee members.
Meeting adjourned at approximately 10:45 AM.
Respectfully submitted,
