APPROVAL OF AGENDA Pat Porter asked to add Loretta Breeden's resignation from the Board to the Agenda. There being no further additions or deletions to the Agenda, Roger Meeks asked for Unanimous Consent. There were no objections. 3. APPROVAL OF MIINUTES OF PRIOR MEETING There being no additions or deletions to the Minutes, Roger Meeks asked for Unanimous Consent. There were no objections. 4. OLD BUSINESS a. 251h Anniversary Celebration Pat Porter reported that she, Sylvia and Betty met to discuss the celebrations. Porter said the posters are finished and passed them out. She also passed out a copy of the invitations stating they have been sent to the Council members, Borough, AK Board on Aging, local Legislators and major contributors (Unocal, Phillips, etc.). Tickets are being sold beginning today, $8.00 for non -senior and $5.00 for seniors and kids under 10, and there are 300 of them. The barbecue will be ribs and chicken. Porter said that Sylvia is making a collage of pictures from 1971 to present. She stated they ordered cups made with "Kenai Seniors" written at the top and "Since 1971 " at the bottom. Porter asked the Board if they wanted to include a short program during the barbecue, i.e. having the Mayor speak, etc. Roger Meeks concurred that would be a good idea. Porter said there will be nice decorations and food and asked for further suggestions. It was discussed and decided to ask Page 2 Council On Aging Minutes August 19, 1996 some past directors to speak at the program also. Porter said she will continue to work with Sylvia and Betty to come up with more ideas. Linda Swarner asked if the posters were being sold and where. Porter asked the Board members if they felt they should be sold (they were $1200 for 500 posters). Meeks suggested selling the posters for $5.00 at the center. MOTION All Pease Moved to sell the Senior Center Anniversary posters for $5.00. Sam Huddleston Seconded. Passed by Unanimous Consent. b. 1996/97 Budget Porter passed out a copy of the budget report. She said she will do a summary page and suggested everyone take the report home and review it. Swarner asked Porter if the rentals are up or down from last year. She replied the rentals are up. c. Increase in Meal Donations/$3.00 Meeks stated this item was tabled at the last meeting. Porter said most of the Sr. Centers in the state have increased their price to $3.00. She said she was asked about this at the grant review in which she replied that effective July 16, we were going increase to $3.00. She added it is up to the Board, if they want to leave it at $2.50 and see how it goes for awhile, but to consider she did figure the budget at $3.00 There was discussion concerning what was said at the last meeting. Porter read from the minutes: Huddleston asked if they wanted to increase the meal donation? Porter stated that she thought it should be addressed noting that meals are $3.00 in almost every other center. Porter advised that she and Pease came in the office before the meeting and they got statistics together. Porter stated that depending on how the program income is and whether or not they are where they should be with their donations - Al interjected that the way they have been going this Page 3 Council On Aging Minutes August 19, 1996 year, by the 1 ' of July they should be on schedule with what they figured the cost should be. Pease advised that the cost and the income are running at 87% of what was projected. Thus, if the income and expenses continue as projected, they should be right on the money. PEASE MOVED TO INCREASE THE COST TO $3.00 BUT THAT IT BE HELD IN ABEYANCE UNTIL AFTER JULY TO SEE IF IT IS NEEDED. AT THAT TIME IF A NEED IS SHOWN, IT CAN BE PUT IN EFFECT. Huddleston asked why they didn't table it to the next meeting. Pease stated that if they put it in as contingency, they wouldn't have to get everyone back together again for a special meeting to vote on it. Pease noted they can go with the $3.00 if they need it after July. Seay noted he has supported every increase they have had so far but stated that if they don't have to increase it, he would like to leave it the way it is. Seay added that somewhere they have to stop raising prices. Seay noted that people can go to McDonalds and eat cheaper. Seay stated he is not saying that he wouldn't support it but he'd have to feel it must absolutely be raised. Pease stated that is basically what he had said. Porter stated she felt Al was alluding to the fact that if they don't get the money from the federal government for the food program, then there may be a need to raise it. But, if the $118,000 is received, it appears as if the history of getting contributions for meals is right on target. Porter added that it will probably repeat the same thing next thing (time?). Porter stated that they might be very safe in continuing to keep the meal contributions at $2.50. Meeks stated since they will know by next meeting, wouldn't it be better to wait until next meeting. Porter stated they could have a meeting at the end of June once they know how much money will be received from all agencies and they would know if they would need to do that. Porter stated that could be the only thing on the Page 4 Council On Aging Minutes August 19, 1996 agenda or perhaps they could discuss the auction issue. Huddleston stated that he wondered if we don't raise the price, would the United Way and some of the other contributors decide that we don't need that much money. Porter reminded the committee that if somebody doesn't want to pay anything for their meal they don't have to, it is a contribution. She added this Board is merely suggesting raising the contribution amount. MOTION Sam Huddleston Moved to raise the suggested contribution to $3.00 effective September 1, 1996. Al Pease Seconded. There being no objections the Motion Passed by Unanimous Consent. 5. NEW BUSINESS a. Senior Center Town Meeting Porter said this is a new idea she has come up with and wanted discuss it with the Board. She suggested having an evening Senior Citizen Town Meeting the first of October, asking people 60 and over to come and give input as to what they would like to see provided at the Senior Center. She said this would be a way of reaching out to younger seniors and asking them to participate. Porter said older people are staying much more active today than they did 20 years ago. She said, for instance, there is more interest in exercise classes, and trips than there is in craft classes. Porter added there is still interest in these things, but not in the numbers there used to be. She said that to grow and to continue with the program, it has to be able to change with the times. Porter said there may be just a change in time schedules for people that are busy during the day making programs available in the evening too. Georgetta Funk stated that we will never know unless we try it. Swarner said the Fairbanks Center has a potluck once a month. She said her parents attend and there is a different turn out at the evening event than the day event. She suggested having center members, Gene for instance knows photography, why not use their skills to share with others. Page 5 Council On Aging Minutes August 19, 1996 There was more discussion regarding types of new classes - computer classes, etc. Porter asked if the Board was in concurrence with having a dinner. The Board unanimously agreed. Porter asked what day of the week would be good. Huddleston suggested Friday. Porter asked what kind of food would attract new people. It was suggested to try halibut or salmon. Porter said not to put salmon on the menu, no one would come. Virginia suggested having desert rather than a full dinner. It was decided to go with halibut and steak dinner. Discussion continued concerning charging or not for dinner. The Board concurred that 60 and above, with spouse, are free and there will have to be reservations made. Porter suggested limiting the dinner to Kenai residents. Meeks said that since it's free and it's Kenai's center they should be able to state only Kenai residents. Further discussion followed and it was decided not to say Kenai Citizens, but instead advertise it as "Kenai Senior Center Service District" since so many non -Kenai residents use the center. The date for the dinner will be set for mid -October b. Non -Senior Meal Fee/$6.00 Porter reported that non -senior meals have been $5.00 for many years and the average cost per meal is $7.33. She said that Palmer and Wasilla have raised their price and so is Soldotna. Porter suggested raising the cost to $6.00 per meal. Meeks stated that since the cost to seniors is being raised, it should be raised for non -seniors also. Seay concurred with Meeks. There was some discussion amongst the Board Members concerning the average cost of meals at other places. Swarner stated that as a non -senior, the price should be raised to $7.00. She said $7.00 is still much lower than the average fast food place. Page 6 Council On Aging Minutes August 19, 1996 MOTION Sam Huddleston Moved to increase non -senior meals from $5.00 to $7.00. Gene Seay Seconded. There being no objection the Motion Passed Unanimously. c. Exercise Instruction/Charge for Service Porter stated that she decided to break down the cost for the exercise instructor vs. the number of people who exercise. She said it costs approximately $300 per person to participate in the exercise program. Porter said this is using an average of 12 people @ $3900.00 (per year) and includes 3 hours per week. Porter went on to say that with the crafts, we do get money back from sales, but with the exercise program we are getting nothing for what is provided. She stated the money is in the budget for the year but it is something the Board many want to look at, she is only advising the Board of the cost. Huddleston stated that it seems the participants should help pay for the cost. There was general concurrence among the Board Members. Pease suggested maybe charging $1.00 per class for exercising but not charging for the line dancers. Meeks concurred since they do so much P.R. work and suggested asking the participants for their ideas to off -set the expense. d. Loretta Breeden Resignation Porter said Arlene Enfield and Sylvia Johnson filled out applications for the Board. She said she will put a notice in the next news letter regarding the opening on the Board. Gene Seay said he will be moving out of state and asked if he should turn in his resignation. Swarner suggested putting it in the next news letter and she will also mention to the Council the resignations with a recommendation if the Board wishes. Porter said it is our turn to host the dinner where all the local senior boards get together and asked when the Board would like to have it. Meeks suggested before it gets cold. It was decided to have it at the end of September, during the middle of the week. No definite date was set, bring up at next meeting. Page 7 Council On Aging Minutes August 19, 1996 6.

MOTION SECONDED BY WERNER-QUADE. Glick asked for additional staff comments. La Shot stated nothing additional; however, noted a representative from McLanes present to answer any questions. Mahurin stated there is nothing filled in on the application as to what the intent of landscaping is. Rich Riggs with McLanes Consulting Group introduced himself. Riggs explained everything is included in the site plan in items a through f with the exception of item d. Mahurin asked Riggs to explain Type B seeding adding she is not sure if they are planning to put shrubbery or leave trees. Riggs explained that Type B seeding is identified in Note number 6 which explains the application rate. The location of the dwarf mugho pines are identified in the legend and shown on the site plans basically at the corner of the approaches and southwest property corner. Where the mugho pines are not used, seeding will be done with existing vegetation remaining on north side of the property. Riggs stated onsite snow storage area will be on the north end of the parking area which will be gravel. Drainage patterns are identified on the slopes indicated on the site plans, basically the westerly portion of the parking lot flows to southeast to drainage swell to existing ditch on Tern Ave. The northerly portion of the pad is surrounded by ditch which will be excavated to existing sands. Riggs stated there will be a lot of ground water percolation but anything that daylights will come out onto Tern Avenue. Riggs stated the information they have is that it will be steel building, single story. Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes Page 3 August 28, 1996 Mahurin stated she understand that the circles are the mugho pines and asked if it shows that and she missed the information. Riggs stated it is shown on the site plan legend, the ninth symbol down. Mahurin noted they were not given that information. Christian asked what the acreage of the lot was? Riggs stated it is 2.959 acres. Christian asked how much will be landscaped, is it 5 percent. Riggs stated he feels it may be slightly less than 5 percent. Riggs stated he believes 5 percent is the City of Kenai's maximum requirement. Riggs stated if you take into account existing vegetation, stated he is not sure what the area is but could find that information out. Christian stated he toured site today and stated if much of the vegetation is cut down the apartments behind the lot will be looking right at the business. Christian added he was wondering if there will be some way to protect their view adding he believes there will be complaints if there isn't some way to protect the view. Christian added he is afraid there will be overhead parking lights affecting the residential area as well. Riggs advised he is unsure what the owner has planned for parking lot illumination. Riggs stated the existing vegetation will remain on northerly section but where the ditch does comes in on the easterly corner. Riggs stated the intent was to leave as much vegetation as possible. Christian asked if there was no intention to leave any natural vegetation in front. Riggs stated that was correct as far as along Tern Avenue and Bridge Access. Glick asked if this building will be similar to their present building only larger. Riggs stated he believes so based on conversations with owner adding the plans have not been finalized. Riggs stated he was told it will be larger than the present building and similar to those constructed in Wasilla and Anchorage. Christian asked if it will be an expanded version of what they have now. Riggs stated that is correct. Christian asked if they are expecting to need 75 parking spaces. Riggs stated there will be 78 spaces with two van accessible. Riggs stated their computations came out with 63 spaces required so came out with additional spaces. Christian commented he felt it seemed like a lot of parking spaces. Christian asked if the 62 feet between the landscaping and the building itself would be a drive. Riggs explained the original plan for parking adjacent to the building with five foot walk between the building and the parking stalls. The owner, for budgetary concerns, wanted to delete those parking spaces. Riggs added he plans in the future to have parking there. Glick asked where the loading ramp is if there is enough distance for semi to back up without blocking Tern Avenue. Riggs stated the intention is to back in and leave trailer set up with the landing gear. Riggs stated it will not be blocking Tern Avenue but they may be in the right of way when backing up. Planning & Zoning Commission Page 4 Minutes August 28, 1996 Glick asked for further Commission discussion. Christian stated he is new and to be excused for sounding like he is lost. Christian stated he thought the idea of landscaping plan was to enhance the look adding he doesn't see that this will enhance look. Christian states he sees a bare metal building with sign over it and scrub trees that will stay looking like plastic bushes and a little grass and nothing but asphalt in front of it. Christian commented there is a beautiful stand of trees there now and was wondering if we couldn't enhance area like some of the other building sites in that area by leaving a few larger size trees in front. Christian commented that these artificial type scenes do not enhance the building. Christian stated he sees this as a problem especially with the large parking lot. Christian stated it would seem we could sacrifice parking spaces to give larger landscaping or landscaping inside the parking lot. Christian stated he thinks trees along the north, the strip, was an after thought to qualify for 5 percent rather than to make a beautiful site. Christian stated he has a question on that personally. Bryson, asking La Shot to clarify, stated that he thinks the 5 percent refers to up to five percent not a five percent requirement. Bryson stated he feels being a retail store they definitely have a need for exposure and not something that can be obscured adding might get away with a wholesale situation but not retail. Regarding the number of parking spots, Bryson stated he was not knowledgeable about what they perceive as their needs. If the city has a requirement for 60 some, they need to be there. La Shot stated the code would require 63 spaces. La Shot stated they have found in the past the code is minimal in requirements and normally recommend an additional 25 to 50 percent spaces. La Shot noted this is a large commercial business. They have 78 planned which is approximately 25 percent more spaces than they need and it looks like they have space available for additional. La Shot stated he thinks they are wise in doing that. Mahurin stated she shares Christian's concern and the latest experience with another steel building and the minimal landscaping that we have seen brings back the concern. Mahurin noted she understands that we can't require them but perhaps concerns could be shared with the owner and that we would like to see some natural trees left. Mahurin stated that the new grass will be bright and wherever he (the owner) thinks it would be possible we would appreciate whatever he could do and would recognize his efforts to preserve the natural tree vegetation as possible. Mahurin noted that was all that she could see the Commission could do. Goecke stated as a retail business owner in this town, you can never have too much exposure. If you start putting a green belt in front of a retail outlet, you cut down exposure tremendously. Goecke stated you are putting a real burden on a merchant if the people can't see his store. Planning & Zoning Commission Page 5 Minutes August 28, 1996 Christian responded he is not talking about something would block but maybe two or three trees on the sides. Christian noted if they were limbed up a ways you could still see the store. Christian stated perhaps they could put some more on the side to break up the asphalt look that is so the opposite of eye appealing. Goecke commented that when you start working the dirt you will kill the trees anyway because the root system of the spruce trees grows 50 feet in circumference or more and three feet into the ground. It will be a matter of time before they die because the root system has been disturbed. Goecke stated he doesn't have a problem with taking the trees out to the front and the west side. Glick stated it has been his experience with landscaping that single, big trees that the wind will get them. But clumps of trees will stand. Glick stated it is better to plant nice new ones like at the 7-11 at the corner of Willow Street. Glick noted that they have grown up to be nice trees; however, it did take a while. Bryson stated that requiring landscaping of this type has had mixed success. The 7-11 was done voluntarily and probably on state right of way and they have done well. The variation of that was in front of the bowling alley where trees were left there and there at considerable stress to the Planning Commission at the time. Bryson noted they are not there now and nothing has been planted subsequently in their place. Bryson commented that smaller plants as proposed are the better long-term solution. Bryson noted shorter roots can adjust to soil configuration and presumably will be maintained. Bryson noted on the Bridge Access they held parking back 10 feet that holds a green belt on their lot that we can comment. The area in front is state right of way and if it is to scale is probably 60 feet. Bryson noted we haven't had much compliance in that area. Bryson stated he will be supporting the plan as proposed. Glick asked for additional comments. VOTE: BRYSON YES WERNER-QUADE YES GOECKE YES CHRISTIAN NO MAHURIN YES GLICK YES MOTION PASSED 5 TO 1. 8. OLD BUSINESS: 9. CODE ENFORCEMENT ITEMS: Planning & Zoning Commission Page 6 Minutes August 28, 1996 10. REPORTS: a. City Council Councilman Smalley stated a copy of the agenda is in packet. Under Item 3 there were two items. Terry Linebarger was not in audience to speak but Assemblyman Nash was here to speak about project park improvement for the handicapable wheel chair access type park. This is possibly to be built possibly on the back side of Oiler Field between the backside of the field and the golf course. After much discussion, it was remanded back to Nash to visit with the Oiler board to talk about project and develop a more clear cut proposal to bring back to council. Mr. Kluge spoke to council concerning signage on Visitor Center. Kluge's concern was letters to be placed on the Center approximately 15 inches tall that would identify the building. This was a recommendation from the visitor's board. Smalley stated they will be going forward with it. The third item was with reference to construction of building off Beaver Loop belonging to Mr. Garcia. Smalley stated the cement pad that is there is from an older building that has been there and the building came down. They are building on top of the pad and the corner of it is on city property where the property is. The chain length fence is several feet away from the property line. It was Mr. Garcia's understanding that the fence was on the line or even over onto his side when the fence went in years ago. Smalley stated that is not accurate from the survey. Council requested another survey completed and to try to remedy problem so that Mr. Garcia could continue with construction or whatever that remedy is. Smalley noted the fact that the park is tied up with agreement with the city that the land is to remain dedicated as a public park and should it ever not be that it would resort back to the legal heirs, Cunningham estate. Smalley reiterated the city is looking into that. Items C1-4, 5, 6, 7 all passed. Item C-7, the Doors and Windows unlimited contract, is replacing the complete mechanism been there since 1983. Smalley commented it will not make it through the winter noting the wear and tear the doors have received over the years. Smalley stated he believed Doors and Windows the only bidder and thinks they put the first set in. Item G1, Leif Hansen Park policy, Smalley reported there has been much discussion on this in the past. Parks and Rec sent council a recommendation some time ago. That recommendation left it up to the city manager and Parks and Rec director to determine what could be held there. Council remanded it back to Parks and Rec. They came back to council with recommendation that is more stringent and more comprehensive identifying the uses that they would like to have at the Memorial Park. A letter from Dr. Hansen was there and several other individuals identifying what they would like to and not to see there. Council accepted the recommendation of Parks and Rec which could eliminate the River Festival from using the facilities. Some of the objections was Planning & Zoning Commission Page 7 Minutes August 28, 1996 to the commercial type of activities that were ongoing in the festival. Some of the council members and all of the Parks and Rec thought the new facility with the $50,000 restroom, green strip, etc. would be more appropriate. Smalley explained that under Item 2, the city has an agreement with Mr. Cherrier in Old Town behind his apartments to hopefully get the paving project completed. The city and Cherrier had had discussions about paving he wanted done. An agreement has hopefully been reached to pave right of way through there. Smalley stated that in the process they found additional sand and silt there so will be additional costs, between $7 and $8,000. Smalley noted this is a grant project from the ISTEA program. Smalley stated that under New Business, Item 6 they scheduled next Wednesday, a Board of Adjustment on the Prime Residential zone. The City Council will hear the appeal and has 30 days to respond with a decision. The city is going on with it's ADEC matching grants request proposal. Smalley reported the Snug Harbor leases were amended to make modifications in some of the parking and storage areas at the dock to actually help them have more space which will help alleviate confusion. Also the city and the Harbor Commission is going to be developing a proposal to have longer term leases on the dock facilities and staggering them so they don't come due at the same times. Also set for the next meeting is to begin the review and the search for the next city manager. Smalley stated they will look at advertising from three years ago and make determinations as to scope of the search. Smalley noted there are a lot of time restrictions attached to different advertising companies. In addition, they will discuss how in-depth the search will be, nationwide, limited to certain areas, etc. Ex -police chief Rick Ross will become the interim city manager effective Wednesday, September 4th. Goecke asked about the item under New Business, #4, if he is being given $35,000 if he is here for a year or a month. Smalley stated he will be paid $7,000 per month. Ross will be responsible for all taxes, etc. adding he will have no other benefits. Council felt that he should be paid equal to or a little more than the highest paid city employee noting the highest paid city employee is paid approximately $7,000 a month. Ross is looking at it as a short term position. Smalley stated they anticipate finding a new city manager in January or February. b. Borough Planning Bryson stated the August 26th KPB Planning Commission agenda is in the packet. Item C, the consent agenda, was approved unchanged. The land use permit requesting Planning & Zoning Commission Page 8 Minutes August 28, 1996 to operate a halfway house in North Kenai. Bryson noted this had gone through work sessions and public hearings. The legal department of the borough reviewed comments that the Planning Commission had given them and made a determination has to the appropriateness and defendability if applied as a condition of operation. Keeping that in mind, the resolution was approved with all conditions that the legal staff felt defendable. Some items were eliminated. No additional comment from the public at that time. Bryson reported the public hearing items were all approved. Bryson noted the vacation not requiring public hearing was postponed. The platting waiver was approved. Item H-2, was an appeal of the Planning Director's decision as to whether a borrow pit already existed because he had gone through the expense of planning. The item was approved and reversed the Director's decision. Bryson stated that concerning highway speed limits they approved a recommendation from the state and borough concerning modification of speed limits in Moose Pass and Cooper Landing and Oilwell Road in Ninilchik. Additionally there was testimony received concerning the Sterling Highway from Kasilof to Clam Gulch be added for request for modifications for speed. They were added to the request. All plats were approved. Bryson stated that concerning the Kenai River Habitat Protection, there were five requests for CUP. The first concerned a woman requesting to move a cabin and was approved. There were four somewhat similar requests in Poacher Cove Subdivision to construct car ports. The first lot 47 denied, lot 57 withdrawn, lot 56 was denied, and the fourth was found to have initiated construction prior to the applicable date of the ordinance grandfathering what was proposed. This effectively grandfathered in the action. Approved Item K of the Coastal Management Program. b. Administration La Shot stated he has been gone on vacation and has nothing to report. He offered to answer any questions. Smalley added that council had a discussion on attempting to place some type of control of vehicular traffic on the bike path. Smalley stated he thinks there will be a public hearing to receive input from community to assist in controlling the traffic and protection of the green strips. Planning & Zoning Commission Page 9 Minutes August 28, 1996 Christian asked if they discussed barriers. Smalley stated that this is on right of way and the city wouldn't be involved in that. There was discussion about putting a barrier between Carrs and Dairy Queen and thinks someone is being contacted about that. Smalley stated that as far as any kind of barrier on the bike path itself noted he thinks the city may be making the request. Smalley added he feels the state will advise the city if they want to do it to take care of it. Glick asked if the city had been made to remove the one at Beaver Creek. Smalley stated yes because they considered it an endangerment. Mahurin asked what kind of vehicles they are talking about. Smalley stated any motorized vehicle. Glick commented he noticed the bike path is getting a lot of use. Smalley stated project should be finalized Friday adding council had given them a list of items to work on. La Shot stated they did a walk through today. Goecke stated he had talked last week with the engineer in charge of this project, Chuck Sweenor. Goecke added he has felt that the traffic lights were laid out inefficiently and stupidly in this town. Sweenor did not disagree and provided the name of Tim Vigg of USKH in Anchorage. Goecke stated he called him and voiced his concern. Vigg stated it didn't sound right and would check into it. And added that the state probably does not have anyone on the payroll who repairs or times the clocks. Goecke stated that is exactly what the problem is. Vigg provided another name, Dennis Morford, adding that he hasn't called him. Goecke stated the IC Act which is federal moneys —short for intermodel carrier act. Vigg stated he thinks this project of putting lights on a clock so if you it the first one green, and drove the speed limit, you could go all the way through town could qualify for the program. Vigg stated it would bear some looking into that there would be moneys available through this act to do that. Smalley stated he felt that the City has a thick folder in dealing with communications with the state adding that Goecke should visit with Kornelis and La Shot and share the information. Goecke stated the three new lights are not tied together, there is no intercommunication between them. 11. PERSONS PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED: 12. INFORMATION ITEMS: a.

COMMISSION COMMENTS & QUESTIONS: Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes Page 10 August 28, 1996 Mahurin welcomed Mike Christian and congratulated Teresa on the birth of her baby after the last meeting. Bryson stated he is appreciative of the map but several things concern him. Bryson stated there are several areas on the plat that he does not remember being rezoned. Bryson listed the industrial arts building shown as being RS-1 or 2, Inlet Woods shown as RS-1 or 2. Don't think they should be depicted as such unless there is documentation. Also near Hall's new building, small situation, yellow reduced so that it is not the depth of the other lots. Bryson stated he remembers the lots were replatted but doesn't remember any rezoning. The adjacent lot that Hall made the trade with should have a split zoning until formally modified. On the other side of the block on Birch Street two lots are shown as being commercial. One belongs to Swearingin. Bryson stated he doesn't think those are commercial lots. Bryson stated there was never any rezoning there. Bryson requested administration follow-up on these. Bryson noted that this does come from the Borough. Christian thanked everyone for welcoming adding that he hopes he is not too much of a pest with his questions. Christian asked if there is any intent to fill in the trench across Birch. La Shot stated that was done by the utility company and should be patched. Christian offered a comment that as a person who sat in the audience that the sound doesn't carry well to the audience. Christian asked if this could be checked adding that Bryson's voice tends to be soft and hard to hear. Werner-Quade welcomed Christian adding that the map is beautiful. Added hopes to get an addendum sheet with corrections. Werner-Quade commented that the highway is beautiful. Smalley asked La Shot about where they are working on the lights in town. Smalley stated they are digging into asphalt and replacing with cold patch. Smalley stated that he understands that they believe it is patched. La Shot stated he will check on it. 14.

Phil Nash (filling in for Terry Linebarger), Kenai Lions Club, Handicapable Park. Nash stated that the Kenai Lions Club would like to make a park behind the Oilers ball park that would be accessible and useable by people in wheelchairs. They have discussed widening and flattening the existing trail through the park. No trees would have to be cut, only brush. One area would be smoothed off and be developed with fire pits and tables designed for wheelchair use. Nash said the Lions wanted to let the Council know what their plan is and ask Council if they have any objections. He said they are not asking Council to do any of the work or spend any money. He stated that Parks & Rec is generally in favor of the plan; they just need to know how Council feels. Councilman Smalley stated that when the gate is open at Oilers Field the young people go into the area to meet. Nash said he talked with the Police Chief a few years ago; and the police were looking at the problem at that time. He said it appears the problem is not as bad now as it was then, and that he believes the problem would take care of itself once the public became aware of the park's existence and use. Councilman Measles said that he is a Board member for the Oilers, and that they are concerned about leaving that area unlocked. Nash stated that the proposed park would be on only a small part of the Oilers Park, but access is the issue. Mayor Williams asked if the Parks & Rec department had been included in discussions about the proposed park. Bob Frates came forward with pictures of the project area, including the steep portion of the trail that would need to be flattened. He said that the Parks & Rec Commission had been approached a couple of years ago about this project and had no objections. Mayor Williams asked if a drawing could be provided to show a clearer picture of the planned changes. He also asked if Council had any objection to the plan. Councilman Smalley again spoke to security concerning young adults using the space for their gatherings. He asked if the Lions had looked at other locations. Nash said they had, but this location is good partly because a trail already exists that isn't being used very much. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 3 of 21 Mayor Williams suggested the Lions Club take this issue up with the Oilers again to work out access, and develop a more formal plan about the development of the park. Councilman Measles suggested the Lions meet with the Oilers Board and convince them that vandalism won't be a problem. Measles said there have been problems even with the gate locked, such as a fire started this year in the concession stand. Nash said he would get on the agenda for a meeting with the Oilers Board. B-2. Bill Kluge - Visitors' Center Signage. Kluge stated that the Visitors' Center administration and board have elected to place 15" high off-white plastic letters on the gable end of the front of the building to the right of the entry. He said he met with the Board and expressed his displeasure with their decision, but the project is proceeding. Kluge stated the building will be damaged by the holes needed to attach the signage. He said the letters are out of context with the character of the building. Kluge also said he is concerned with additions and upgrades being made to the building without being well thought out. He gave an example of speed bumps recently added to the parking lot, one bump which was placed between two handicapped parking spaces. Kluge handed out a to -scale drawing of the Visitors' Center showing the proposed lettering on the building and showing the trees blocking part of the letters. He said this is the view of the building from the highway. When the building was constructed, placement of signage was quite limited, he said; but now signage could be placed diagonally to the intersection and displayed with flowers, making it easy to see. Kluge also stated that someone should talk to DOT about the fact that there is really no turning lane into the Visitors' Center parking lot after going through the intersection at Main Street Loop. You must use a joint turning lane that people use for the light. He stated that the safest and best way for people to enter the parking lot would be to go around the Chamber building, and that maybe directional signage could be attached to the stop light. Further, Kluge stated that he sits on the Townsite Historic District Board. He said they have been trying for several months to come up with signage rules for the area to keep signage in context with the character of the historic district (i.e., KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 4 of 21 discreet and tasteful). He said the Visitors' Center is right at the "gateway" to the historic district, and he asked Council to take action to stop the placement of these letters on the Visitors' Center. He said, "As I professional, I am recommending we consider an alternative to placing these signs on the building itself." Councilwoman Swarner stated she saw the lettering and that she thought it looked nice and not degrading to the building. Councilman Smalley asked Councilwoman Swarner if she knew why the letters were being put up. Marian Nelson, Townsite Historic District board member, was in the audience and stood to speak. Nelson said the Board had thought to put the letters on a temporary board and see how it worked. She said that to say the letters are white plastic cheapens them; they are vacuform letters which are attractive and are used everywhere. Nelson also stated that the Board did not make a hurried decision about the signage. Nelson also said it's not a good idea to combine a situation like the speed bumps in with the signage issue because Keith Kornelis can address the speed bumps, and the Board will address the signage issue. Councilman Smalley said his question had to do with why the Visitors' Center Board felt more signage was necessary at all. He said it seems like the traffic through the Center is always increasing. Nelson answered that many people who come in say they had trouble finding the building. Kluge stated that the signage along the path to the Center also needs improvement. He said when you are coming off of Bridge Access there is only a question mark on a sign --there is no other information. He said there should be a sign that leads people to the Center and another that identifies the Center so people don't pass by it. The sign that is already there maybe just needs to be moved to a better position, he said. Councilman Smalley asked Nelson if the Board had considered a sign out by the street on the lawn. She said yes; they have tried to think of all the possibilities. Mayor Williams asked if the permanent, cement sign could be moved to another location. Nelson said they have tried to think of a better place for it, but nothing looks like it will work as well as a sign up on the building. No action taken by Council. Mayor Williams stated that Council has a policy of letting the Board handle the operations of the Center. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 5 of 21 B-3. Chris Garcia - Building Permit Garcia stated that if something isn't done about this issue he is probably going to lose his building to the weather as it has no roof. He said as soon as he learned there was a discrepancy he stopped construction. Garcia referred to the map handed out by Kornelis and said it doesn't agree with his information. Garcia said that at the time of the survey the City came to him and said that the boat launch was on his (Garcia's) property. Garcia told them he didn't really care; they could just leave it there. The City then told him the boat launch was real close to the property line, he said; and they asked him if it was all right to "fudge" the fence on his side of the property line so they could keep the boat launch and then run the fence down the property line. Garcia stated he was told it was only two or three feet, so he told them to go ahead with construction of the fence. Since then, Garcia said he has utilized the property up to the fence as his own. He said even the City police have run people off of the property and told them to stay on the City side of the fence. After Garcia began reconstructing his building, he said, the City building inspector told him he was infringing on the City's setback. So Garcia checked the setbacks and learned it was 15' on side property lines, he said; and because he was 19' from the fence he didn't see a problem. Garcia stated he discussed this with Mayor Williams and was told the Mayor didn't see a problem either. "The building inspector told me he was going to send me a letter telling me everything was okay, and he never did," Garcia said. When Garcia approached the building inspector about the subject several months later, Garcia was told there was still a property line dispute which needed to be resolved, he said. Garcia stated nothing has been done on this problem all spring and all summer, and he would like to get it resolved. Garcia suggested that maybe the survey which was done in the late 1970's was wrong. He said he is willing to buy the property from the City or "whatever it takes," because he has a lot of money invested in a building that he doesn't want to remove. Mayor Williams stated that the fact is that Mr. Garcia's building is on City property. The location of the fence, he said, seems to have caused the misunderstanding about where the property line really is. Mayor Williams said it's not possible to say why the fence was put where it was or why the foundation of the second building was placed where it is. He asked Garcia how long the original foundation has been where it is. Garcia stated it was KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 6 of 21 after the fence was up, maybe the late 1970's or early 1980's. Mayor Williams said that when an encroachment goes unchallenged for so long the property in question usually goes to the encroaching party. City Attorney Graves stated that compounding the problem is the fact that this is dedicated City park land. He said, if the City doesn't use the property for park land, it reverts to the heirs of Martha Cunningham. Garcia said that the City stopped using the land as park land when the fence was built. He said he has used the land up to the fence ever since the fence went up. He said he has planted grass and stored things in it. "The City has not used that particular part of that property as park land since the fence has been there." Attorney Graves said he was told that the fence was put where it was in order to provide a buffer between the park and Garcia's property. Garcia said that was one of the original reasons for the fence, but that doesn't speak to why the fence was put on City property. Garcia stated that when the surveyors were there, Garcia was told that the river side of the fence was on his property; but he agreed to that because he wanted the fence and because the boat ramp would not have to be cut out. Councilwoman Swarner asked Garcia if he put the original slab in for the new building. He said he did that after the fence was built. She asked if he had a building permit for that project, but he couldn't remember. Kornelis said the only permit for that property was for the construction of the home. There is no as - built or any other record for the new building, Kornelis said. Mayor Williams asked Administration to research the problem and try to find a solution short of tearing the building down. Councilman Bannock said that the building is approximately 19' at its closest point from the fence. He asked Garcia if he was led to believe that the fence was the property line? Garcia answered yes. Bannock asked if it would be possible for the City to bear the expense of resubdividing that property and giving the 19' "sliver" back to the Cunningham's because it is not being used as a park. He said then Garcia could negotiate with the Cunninghams to solve the encroachment problem. Attorney Graves said the problem is in contacting the heirs of Ms. Cunningham. The estate has been closed (probably), he said, and we don't know how many heirs there are or if they could be found. Councilman Smalley pointed out that the City is, and has been, in violation of the agreement because that section of the property has not been in use as a park. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 7 of 21 Councilwoman Swarner asked if the March 1996 survey could be incorrect. Mayor Williams said that until a solution to this problem is obtained Garcia should not be fined. Councilman Smalley agreed that a new survey might be a good idea. Councilman Moore asked if a survey was done before the fence was built. Kornelis said Jack La Shot was in charge of putting this fence in and he has been on vacation recently. Kornelis said he was told that Jack had placed the fence away from Garcia's property line because Garcia wanted a buffer zone and the fence because of the number of people in Cunningham Park. Mr. Garcia said, "That's not so." He said all he ever wanted was a fence just so people would know to stay off his property. He said again that has always been under the impression that the fence was built on the property line except on the river side where it was on his property. Kornelis said Jack would back on Monday and that he might have some documentation on the subject. Mayor Williams directed Administration to try to come to a solution without any ramifications to Mr. Garcia. No objections from Council. ITEM C: PUBLIC HEARINGS C-1.

There were no public comments. Councilman Moore asked if we have a commitment from the FAA for this project. Mayor Williams said no, but that the money is actually coming from the Airport Land Fund through a grant arrangement. Randy Ernst, Airport Manager, said that the application has been submitted and that all indications from the FAA are that the application is being processed. Ernst stated that to get to the grant phase of the project, the City has to have the "hard numbers" by the engineering firm. There is nothing to prevent this project from going forward, and he will be getting a letter of intent, Ernst said. Moore asked if this money is going to be reimbursed. Mayor Williams said yes it will as the project comes to fruition. Ernst stated that the City's commitment to the project is $455,000, and the FAA's commitment is about $7.2 million. Ernst stated that 15 engineering firms have already asked for bidding packets for this project.

MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 96-62 and Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion. Councilman Moore asked if this property is the old Kenai Packers' processing plant yard and if the City owns it. Engineering Tech Rachel Clark explained that the information contained in the packet is only a sample. The property at issue is the two lots next to the courthouse. Councilman Smalley asked if Santa Fe Drilling would pay if the project gets extended and the cost goes up. Attorney Graves answered that they would pay their pro rata share. The soil was segregated: Santa Fe is responsible for Lot 13 (300 yards), and the City is responsible for Lot 14 (120 yards). John Bova, Vice President, The Terrell Group, stated that the process of soil remediation is called hot air vapor extraction and has been used successfully for 2-1/2 years, including on a KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page it of 21 big project for the U.S. Navy. They have had a 100% success rate with the process. He explained how the process works. Councilman Smalley mentioned that the last problem the City had with soil was in removal of the "heavy" oils. He asked Bova if this could happen again. Bova answered that the process being used is designed primarily for diesels and heavy oils. He said the process might be slowed slightly (up to 7 days), but there should be no other problems.

RECESS FOR BREAK RETURN TO ORDER Smalley: Yes Bookey: Absent Mayor Williams asked if Council would allow changing the agenda at this time to put the discussion of Leif Hansen Memorial Park (G-1) before commission reports. No objections. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 12 of 21 ITEM G. OLD BUSINESS G-1. Discussion - Leif Hansen Memorial Park Policy Proposal. Parks & Rec Director Bob Frates stated that this issue has come to Parks & Rec a couple of times before. The Commission has now written this general policy statement, and they feel large group activities should be excluded. Only weddings and small memorial services should be held in the park, they feel. The Commission also recommended that the $50 deposit should be increased to $200 to cover costs of replacing a plaque or a tree if it is damaged. Frates said the Commission didn't want to dictate exactly how large a group could use the park; they hope that the activity will dictate the size. Frates said the Commission's concern is that large groups would want to use the park. He said the Kenai River Festival Group has done an excellent job in cleaning up after themselves, but the Commission is concerned that other groups might not be so careful. Suzanne Little spoke about her work on the design of the park and her recent talk with Dr. Hansen about his letter to Council (in the packet). Dr. Hansen told her he didn't mean to say there should be no cooking in the park --he meant no camp fires. He told her he didn't want dancing on the grass, but if the grass were protected then it would be okay. Little stated that Dr. Hansen was not displeased with the Kenai River Festival being in the park. He intended the park to be a fun, festive place, she said. She stated they did not discuss the issue of non- profit or for -profit groups doing business in the park. She said her personal feeling is that it is probably "a policy gone too far." Little stated -that requiring a $1,000 bond for large events might be all that's needed to control damage. Councilman Smalley asked if the Kenai River Festival group has responded to the Parks & Rec Commission's suggestions. Lori Landstrom was in the audience and spoke. Regarding the issue of no commercial use in the park, Landstrom stated she was not ready to speak for the committee on that issue. She said she attended one meeting of Parks & Rec and voiced her concerns and the intentions for which she believed the park was established. She said she didn't attend the next meeting because she didn't see any support from the Commission for the River Festival being held in the park. Peggy Mullen, 355 Lingenberry, Soldotna, stated that Kenai and Soldotna both suffer from a lack of too few public gathering places. She said Leif Hansen Memorial Park is becoming a "town commons" because of its location. Mullen asked Council to KENAI CITY COUNCIIa MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 13 of 21 remember that the River Festival is unique in that it is not only a joyful event but: an educational one. She wondered if Council "would maybe grandmother in" the River Festival since they have proven that they do a "careful job." Mullen stated that the Festival people do their own risk management as they go along, and that, allowed to use the park, they would probably want to talk to Council about the no commercial use clause because that would impact them. Pat Porter, Kenai, spoke "as a citizen," saying that she was involved with the original concept of the park. She said it was never meant to be a sad place, but was never meant for big parties either. Porter stated that she is against the use of the park by large groups. She also said that vendors who used to have booths along the Spur Highway for the Fourth of July parade were forced to move to the ballfield. None of the vendors were happy about the move, but it's working out just fine. She said the Senior Center does quite well there. Councilman Bannock. said it seems that any regulations, rules or guidelines that come from Council or the Parks & Rec Commission are interpreted as. an attempt to "kill the Kenai River Festival." He stated that is not case. He said he wants to look at the original intent, and that the Commission was not at all confused about what they wanted to happen in the park. The two issues they looked at were safety (i.e. highway location), public parking, and the intent. Bannock said the Commission looked at the $50,000 public restroom, electricity and city water located at the ballfield strip. That area was set up for handling large groups, he said. Bannock said a lot of work went into the drafting of this policy and that he supports it as written. Mayor Williams stated his support for accepting the Commission's policy. He said he's not sure the deposit should be set too high because the only person who is careful is the one who actually puts up the deposit. The Council accepted the policy as written by the Commission, including $200 deposit. ITEM D: COMMISSION/COMMITTEE REPORTS D-1. Council on Aging Councilwoman Swarner reported that members voted at their last meeting to increase the suggested donation for seniors' meals from $2.50 to $3.00 and non -seniors' meals from $5.00 to $7.00. The seniors are going to sell their poster for $5.00. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 14 of 21 Loretta Breeden resigned from the Council on Aging, so there is an opening. Another member will be leaving soon, as well. Names will be submitted. D-2. Airport Commission Councilman Measles reported the minutes of the last meeting are in the packet. He said there are two FAA employee applicants for the open position. Since Council members do not know the applicants, Mayor Williams was asked to meet with the applicants and make a recommendation to the Council. D-3. Harbor Commission Mayor Williams said he spoke with the Harbor Commission at their last meeting about putting out an RFP for bluff stabilization to run from Old Town to Kenai Packers. He said he proposed a sheet pile wall be placed 20-30' from the bluff, and the space between the wall and the bluff be backfilled with crushed car bodies, broken cement, old refrigerators, washing machines, etc., and all be continuously layered with sand. Williams stated that if nothing is done, the property along the bluff will continue to be lost (in 1953 there were properties 145' from where they are now), he said. Councilman Smalley said he would like to know the additional cost to the city police department, the parks and rec department, and the city dock for this summer's fisheries. He said those costs should include Port -A. -Potties, extra work hours, etc., and a letter should be sent to Fish & Game and the State legislature requesting them to budget the monies to repay the City and "budget them in the future if they wish to continue the fisheries." D-4. Library Commission Councilman Moore reported the next meeting is on Tuesday, September 3, 1996. Librarian Emily DeForest stated they are still working on promoting the addition to the building and selling lottery tickets. D-5. Parks & Recreation Commission No report. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 15 of 21 D-6. Planning & Zoning Commission Councilman Smalley reported on the last P&Z meeting (minutes are in the packet). He said there are two openings on the P&Z Commission. The Clerk. was asked to write thank you letters to Mr. Walker and Mr. Booth for their participation on the Commission. Because Booth is taking a leave of absence, his letter should also state that he should contact Council immediately upon his availability. The application from Michael Christian was considered by Council. Councilman Smalley stated that Mr. Christian has been very active in the community. He said he believes Mr. Christian would be a worthy commission member. Council decided to appoint Michael Christian to one of the vacancies on the P&Z Commission. D-7. Miscellaneous Commissions and Committees D-7a. Beautification Committee Councilwoman Swarner reported that the committee is looking at designs for banners for the City; these would be for next year's budget. There will be a volunteer appreciation function in September, she said. Bob Frates handed out new brochures about the City's flower :beds to be handed out at the Visitors' Center and City Hall. D-7b. Historic District Board Next meeting is September 23, 1996. D-7c. Challenger Steering Committee Next meeting is September 5, 1996. D-7d. Kenai Visitors & Convention Bureau Board No report. ITEM E: MINIITTES E-1. Regular Meeting of August 7, 1996. Approved by consent agenda. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 16 of 21 ITEM F: CORRESPONDENCE None. ITEM G: OLD BUSINESS G-1. (Item G-1 was moved between Items C-7 and D-1.) G-2. Approval - Agreement for Dedication of Right-of- Way/Mission Street Paving/Cherrier. Attorney Graves stated that the wording of the agreement is fairly straight forward. Kornelis said the test holes were dug today, and a layer of silt and mud was found in the road under a foot of hard gravel. He said the Finance Department found records from 1967 assessing Mr. Cherrier for bringing the road up to good gravel standards in front of his place. Kornelis said the new estimate is $5,000 for Dl and paving, and about $3,000 for digging out the mud and replacing it with good material --a total of about $8,000. He stated, however, that $3,000 to $3,500 is for fixing what wasn't done properly in the first place. Kornelis said he talked with Mr. Cherrier today, and Mr. Cherrier has no problem with 'the agreement as it is written. Kornelis told Cherrier that the area could be replatted and then each one of the property owners could sign the replat showing they had dedicated that right• -of -way to the City. He said Public Works recommends that Council go with this agreement. Councilman Bannock stated, "I don't really have an objection to the project proceeding. I'm still not necessarily in agreement with this agreement because I'm thinking that if I was a property owner in a situation just like this I guess I'd want to be the last person to negotiate with the City because there's a couple other property owners that didn't get anything for their rights - of -way that they gave up." He said that the City didn't negotiate with those property owners "dollarwise." Mayor Williams replied that the City negotiated long and hard with them otherwise, however. Kornelis stated that in this case the Church came to the City with Mr. Arness and offered to give up their right-of-way to create the paving project. Mr. Cherrier was not involved in that request; the City then went to him and asked him to do it. No further discussion. Council directed Administration to proceed with the project.

Mayor Williams stated that the Council meeting agendas with full text of ordinances and resolutions are now available on the City's Internet web site.

Kenai spur Highway - Kornelis reported he will be meeting with DOT for final inspection of the road on Friday, August 23, 1996. If anyone has any project concerns, let him know before then. Councilwoman Swarner mentioned that when the State sprayed grass on the rights -of -way they missed the dirt in several areas. She also mentioned that the sidewalk in front of Arby's has gaps in it that need to be fixed. Councilman Smalley said he is concerned about the dips in the road between Walker and the Spur Highway, and another near the high school. He said they will fill with water and cause problems. Also, he said, there are no drains between the exit roads from the high school. Kornelis said he will mention these items to the DOT. Mayor Williams said he would like to see an ordinance charging a $500 fine and confiscation of the vehicle for anyone caught driving any motorized vehicle on the new bike paths. Councilwoman Swarn.er asked Kornelis to have a post placed in the path between the Dairy Queen and Carrs to keep people from driving there. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 20 of 21 Mayor Williams said the state highway engineer emphasized the City's responsibility to protect the bike paths once they are constructed. Kornelis said he has learned since that the district will not allow the State to put "No Motorized Vehicle" signs on the paths --instead the signs will be pictures of pedestrians. Councilman Smalley said that there is still a problem at the intersection of the Spur Highway and Bridge Access Road. He said he still sees trucks that turn that corner and drag over the curb. Kornelis said he has pointed that out to DOT and they will not change it or the one on Airport Way. Mayor Williams said there is another problem at Tern Avenue and Bridge Access --there is not enough room in the left turn lane. Kornelis said he has written to DOT about this problem as well as not enough shoulder space in that area. He said they did come back and put more fill on the shoulders, but they said they would only look at the left turn situation in a future safety project. Mayor Williams told Kornelis to begin immediately on that safety project because there have already been some accidents there. Councilman Smalley said there are noticeable bumps where the new highway meets the old highway. Kornelis said there are also some problems with the signals; they aren't UL approved, or something. Kornelis said he will make a list of these items and go over them with DOT. b. OSHA Citation at STP - Kornelis said the OSHA citation at the sewer treatment plant has been corrected; "we are in compliance now." Councilman Smalley said the light at Willow and the Spur is still not working properly. I-7. Airport Manager No report. ITEM J: DISCUSSION J-1. Citizens a. Tim Navarre - Navarre reported that the Borough Assembly dealt with the half -way house issue by putting a six-month moratorium on their ordinance. They are going ahead with the half -way house at North Star, however. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES August 21, 1996 Page 21 of 21 Navarre said the Animal Control ordinance in the Borough was defeated 4 to 5. Councilman Smalley asked Navarre if the City could count on supporting the City's right to maintain its own authority with regard to development of any kind within the City. Navarre said that he can guarantee that he will support that. b. Bob Peters - He asked what happened to the dog house. Councilman Smalley said the City had to spend more money than anticipated on the new well and other things. Peters said that he thinks there is a problem with the arrows in the left turn lane of the highway, especially in front of the high school where there is a "Do Not Enter" sign. J-2. Council Bookey - Absent. Swarner - She would like to have a report set for selection of a new city manager and re -writing the job description. Mayor Williams suggested. there could be a discussion at the next council meeting and a work session could maybe be set. Council directed the Clerk to put this discussion on the agenda for the September 4, 1996 meeting. Moore - No report. Measles - No report. Bannock - City Council members are invited to lunch on September 9 at noon with the Kenai Rotary Club for the dedication of the Old Town park (as guests). Smalley - No report. Williams - No report.

Paulsen, Acting City Clerk MEMORANDUM TO: THROUGH: Mayor Williams and Council Members Cary Graves, Acting City Manager Ci FROM: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director DATE: August 30, 1996 SUBJECT: FY 98 Capital Project Matching Grant Program FOR: City Council meeting of 9/4/96 - Discussion Attached is the application packet for the FY 98 Capital Project Matching Grant Program. Please note that the deadline for submittal is October 1. I would suggest a work: session to discuss this. Last year the grant amount was $149,947 of state funds and $64,263 of city funds.

DEADLINE: October 1, 1996 Mail to: Lena Simmons Division of Administrative Services Department of Administration PO Box 110208 Juneau, AK 99811-0208 Phone: 907 465-5647 Fax 907 465-2194 Internet - Lena_Simmons%Admin@state.ak.us Application Checklist Make sure your application contains the following: ❑ FORM A List of proposed projects. This list needs to be signed by the Mayor or other authorized person. ❑ FORM B Project Description - one for each project you submit ❑ RESOLUTION Passed by your assembly or city council, attesting that the project list submitted contains the projects the municipality wishes to fund and committing to payment of the local share of the projects. 1 INSTRUCTIONS Use the dollar arnount you received in FY 97 as your base. Add to it any account balance! you may have. Account balance information was mailed to you in July with your allocation notice. The sum of these two items is the total amount you can request under this program. NOTE: do not request more than this amount as it will slow down the application process. 2. Select the projects you wish to propose for funding and rank them in the order of importance - the number 1 priority being the most important, etc. Be aware that, if funding is reduced, we will propose funding for your projects in the Governor's proposed capital budget in the priority order you submit. REMEMBER: Projects have to total a minimum of $10,000 (state plus local share). 3. For each project, decide how your community will fund your local share. It can be cash, or in -kind contributions of labor, land, equipment usage or materials. Administrative costs do not count as match. Your required local share percentage was on the allocation chart sent you in July. To determine your local share amount: A. divide your local share percentage by the remainder obtained when that percentage is subtracted from 100%. For example, if your local share percentage is 5.5%, you would divide 5.5 by 94.5 B. Multiply the result obtained in A, above, by the dollar amount of the state grant funds being requested for the project. Round the amount to the closest dollar. For example, if your local share is 5.5%, and the State share of your project is $20,0010, you would: 5.5 divided by 94.5 = .05820 $20,000 times .05820 = $1,164 This number ($1,164) is the local share required for this project. So, state share + local share = project total $20,000 + $1,164 = $21,164 4. Complete Form A. List your projects in order of importance. Make sure Form A is signed by the Mayor or other authorized person. Make sure each project totals a minimum of $10,000 and that the total of all projects does not exceed the total amount you determined in step 1 as being the sum of the municipality's available balance plus its FY 98 grant allocation amount (FY 97 amount). 5. Complete a Form B for each project you submit. Make sure the application explains how your municipality is going to meet the match (i.e. cash, labor, materials). 6. Adopt a local resolution that endorses all the projects, requested grant amounts, and local share amounts that are listed on form A. 7. Mail the entire application packet to: Lena Simmons Division of Administrative Services Department of Administration PO Box 110208 Juneau, AK 99811-0208 Phone: 907 465-5647 Fax 907 465-2194 Internet - Lena_Simmons%Admin@state.ak.us Use the checklist on page 1 to make sure you have included everything you need. 3 APPLICATION DEADLINE: October 1, 1996 Last date for amendments to DOA December 1, 1996 After this date, mail application forms or requests for changes to Jeff Hoover Office of Management and Budget PO Box 110101 Juneau, AK 99811-0101 Phone: 907 465-4697 Fax: 907 465-2090 Intern et:Jeff_Hoover%Gov@state.ak.us Last date for amendments to OMB February 1, 1997 after this date, all amendments to projects must be submitted to your legislator Make sure you send this office copies of all grant requests, changes, etc, even after the December 1 cut-off! 4 PROJECT SELECTION CRITERIA When the department receives your materials, we will review them for completeness.

The following is an account of what I remember from 1982. 1 administrated a contract in the summer of 1982 to install fencing in various locations within the City. One location was Cunningham Park along, the east and west sides of the park. The reason for placing the fence was to restrict use of the park to established areas upland of the river. People were trespassing, littering, and starting fires in the grass. had the fence installed between the park and the Garcia residence being certain to keep it: well on City property and off the Garcias' lawn. It was apparent, at: the time, that the Garcias' were using some City park property to store items and for lawn. Mr. Garcia, after observing the fence installation, came to my office thinking that we had installed the fence on his property. After much discussion, looking at maps and plats, and even physically locating a monument and measuring to the adjacent property corner, we were both certain that the fence was well on City park land, not along the property line or on the Garcias' property. Considering the effort to determine the location of the property line, I was quite surprised to see the building being constructed in this location. 3 sic) I S11 '1h /16 <�r� TO -'` ENCROACHMENT: sign 9.2' OCK cable _ n a ---�_ fence I _ f 0 O O) I r7 J M 2gS. two—story 0 self—contained 'l garogi.� restroom unit,' i under I ` consf.

They updated/changed their proposal on August 29, 1996. The price for the seven (7) light poles in Inlet Woods has increased to $8,249. We have $7,500 in the budget so we are $749 over the budget. This extra cost could: 1. Reduce the $20,000 budget for other new street lights; or 2. We could reduce the number of street lights going back into Inlet Woods to six (6) at $7,071 which is within the budget. I have included in "Bills Over $2500" for this council meeting, a P.O. to Air Tek for seven (7) street lights for a total of $8,249. If council wants to change it to six (6), then they could change the P.O. to $7,071. HEA is presently working on a cost estimate for twenty two (22) other street lights that have been requested. Once I get the costs for those lights the council can decide which lights and how much the city should spend. KK/kw �C 7 c r HECY(:LED PAPER r�l Conlon"!010%Pre-Conouma-1DIV. Poo, 1-Cxwwn%,rPage NO.

I found the material extremely interesting and believe it does a good job in pointing out the importance of this kind of program. It is interesting to note the tremendous development of Challenger Learning Centers throughout the United States. The new missions that are being planned and the programs dealing with linking all of these centers together throughout the country are indigitive of the future generation of high tech learning. I think it supports the position that Kenai is taking with regard to bringing Alaska into the new century. If we are successful in developing our learning center, we will be networked with learning centers throughout the country. Our center will be able to offer valuable information with regard to new technologies to schools throughout Alaska. I urge all of you to continue to support the development of the Challenger Learning Center in Kenai, and as we move forward, choose opportunities to speak about the Challenger Learning Center to others. Thank you very much for taking the time to read the material. Sincerely, John J.

The electric utilities serving the interior and southcencral areas of Alaska are known as tht Interne Participants Group (IPG). The seven utilities that form the IPG are electrically connected to provide efficient service to customers in the region. The proposed Southern Interne will provide an additional connection between IPG utilities to improve reliability )f service and efficient distribution of power. Prci ct Overview The existing transmission line between Kenai and Anchorage is prone to outages and is lunited in its capacity to transfer energy; installation of a second line will improve reliability and increase the transmission capability of the electrical system. The proposed Southern Intertie Project will specifically provide a more efficient distribution of electricity between the Bradley Lake Hydroelectric Project on the Kenai Peninsula and the rest of the Alaska Railbelt. Study Approach K �; On behalf of the IPG, Chugach Electric Association is= - directing engineering and environmental studies for the ,= •ai proposed project. These studies are being performed by ^'; o- PO"NER Engineers, Dames & Moore and other local �.;• Alternative :, • consuitants. The project team is beginning a „• 3, Routes transmission line siting study, and input from the public, special interest groups, and public agencies is a critiical part of the planning process. This is the first of � several opportunities for public involvement in a two = pan;: process. Two open houses will be held to explain •-,,. yxi the project and the process (see schedule below). At the same time, the public will have an opportunity to comment Stung Process on the values and criteria that will be used to help identify route alternatives that will be .studied during the next step of the planning process. The next step is to conduct engineering and env:ironmental'studies to determine the feasibility of alternatives indentified. Open House You are invited to open houses at the locations listed below. Representatives from Chugach Electric Association, POWER Engineers and Dames & Moore will be available to answer questions and describe the project in detail. In addition, a formal presentation will be conducted at 7:00 P.M. which will focus on the current phase of the project. wesiva PalmerRegional Study Area ` �Beluge , Anchorage ' t Tymok SVal,� c rawood t 0:.

E Beginning at the Soldotna Substation, Alternative E would follow transmission lines and the Ensta Pipeline across. the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge to Tumagain Arm; where a submarine route would extend to south Anchorage. From the intersection of Old Seward and New.Seward highways, alternative routes would follow major roadways and 'theAlaska Railroad to the International Substa- don. A second option would involve the landing at. the Klatt Road area. Q Also beginning at the Soldotna Substation, Alternative Q would follow the .existing Quartz Creek transmission line parallel to the Sterling Highway and Seward Highway. The route'would cross portions of the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge,• Chugach National Forest, and Chugach State Park before connecting with the UniversitySubstation on Tudor Road or optional nearby substations. H Asa local option to Alternative Q, Alternative H would follow an existing transmission line route along Six Mile Creek.and cross under Turnagain Arm to rejoin the Quartz Creek line west of Bird Pont.

Williams and Kenai City Council Members FROM:C(4 Cary R. Graves, City Attorney DATE: August 29, 1996 RE: Off -Road Vehicles on the Spur Highway Bike Path During the last meeting, the subject of prohibiting off -road vehicles from using the new bike path on the Spur Highway came up. Mayor Williams indicated he thought an ordinance calling for a mandatory $500.00 fine and forfeiture of the vehicles was needed. It did not appear that there was any consensus from Council to proceed with introduction of such an ordinance. However, I thought that I should report to Council regarding what our ordinances now prohibit and possible options. KMC 13.40.020(c) prohibits operation of any off -road vehicle on a "City or State maintained roadway, sidewalk, or on a path or trail designated for bicycles or pedestrians, unless such travel is necessary to go around an obstruction or hazard." I spoke with Keith Kornelis Wednesday, and he indicated that DOT has apparently changed its mind and will designate the bike path as being prohibited to motorized vehicles. If that occurs, the City could cite persons for driving motorized vehicles on the bike path under the already existing ordinance. The penalty for such a violation would be up to a $500.00 fine. Setting a mandatory minimum fine would require an ame-ndment to the ordinance. Anchorage has a section in its municipal code which allows impoundment of off -road vehicles caught using sidewalks or bike paths. The owners must pay the impound fees to get the vehicle back. AMC 9.42.0020131. So in addition to the driver getting a ticket, the owner must pay towing and storage fees. Setting a forfeiture penalty, such as repeat DWI offenders face, requires setting up a separate forfeiture hearing in which any other party with an interest in the vehicle (bank, owner) must be notified. AS 28.35.036-037. The process is fairly time intensive for both the police and prosecutors. Mandatory impoundment such as Anchorage has would be easier to administer. Please let me know if the Council would like me to draft up a new ordinance or any amendments to the existing ordinance.

Ey TUATTON: The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable impacts including cumulative impacts of the proposer. activity and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation of the probable impacts which the proposed activity may have on the public interest-"�'�� y�r requires a careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each' -2- partic,;—'ar case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. The decision whether to authorize a proposal, and if so, the conditions under which '-t will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of the general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national concern for both protection and utilization of important resources. All factors which„av be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the cumulative effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general en,,),ircnmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, floodplain values, land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving 404 discharges, a permit will be denied if the discharge that would be authorized by such permit would not comply with the Environmental Prctectian Agency's 404(b)(1) guidelines. Subject to the preceding sentence and any other applicable guidelines or criteria (see Sections 320.2 and 320. 3), a permit will be granted unless the District Engineer determines that it would be contrary to the public interest. The Corps of Engineers is soliciting comments from the public; Federal, State, and local agencies and officials; Indian Tribes; and other interested parties in order to consider and evaluate the impacts of this proposed activity. Any comments received will be considered by the Corps of Engineers to determine whether to issue, modify, condition or deny a permit for this proposal. To make this decision, comment::' are used to assess impacts on endangered species, historic properties, water quality, general environmental effects, and the other public interest factor::> listed above. Comments are used in the preparation of an Environmental Assessment and/or an Environmental Impact Statement pursuant to the National Environmental Policv Act. Comments are also used to determine the need for a public hearing and to determine the overall public interest of the proposed activity. Comments on the described work, with the reference number, should reach this office no later than the expiration date of this Public Notice to become part of the record and be considered in the decision. Please contact Mr. Johnny J. Duplantis at (907) 753 2724, if further information is desired concerning this notice.
