Dear Mr. LaShot:
Enclosed are two (2) copies of the State/Local Agreement for the referenced Historic
Preservation Fund. grant project.
As you are aware, the time line for the completion of the FY'96 grants has been condensed due
to the late receipt of the federal apportionment. We have re -worked the schedule and provided a
suggested time line. Please carefully review the scope of work and suggested milestone dates for
each activity. If you do not feel these dates are realistic for your work schedule, we can work
with you to arrive at a time line that will fit your needs as well as our own.
Also please review the budget. It has been altered to include the additional monies allocated to
this project by the Alaska Historical Commission. The alterations are based on recent
discussions with your office. Should you have questions on the budget, please contact us and we
can review it with you.
Providing you find the agreement acceptable as written, both copies should be signed, notarized
and returned to our office. .Appendix F of the agreement contains a number of certification
forms. Be sure to sign and date these, and return them along with the agreements. Upon full
execution, a copy of the agreement will be returned to you for your files. As a reminder. no
funds can be tt commi_,�_ ed or �Dent for this project before we have a fully executed grant

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Williams and Council Mem ers
THROUGH: Rick Ross, Acting City Manager
FROM: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director
DATE: September 11, 1996
SUBJECT: Dock - Additional Floats
FOR: City Council meeting of 9/18/96 - Ordinance 1718-96
Public Works would like to purchase 3 additional floats that are 8' x 32' for
the city's dock facility. Our plan is to use them to extend the floats
between the launch ramps and provide other areas to temporarily tie up
boats. One area is where the abandoned boat grid was located.
Carlile gave me a cost estimate of $67.88 to ship the 3 floats from
Anchorage to Kenai. I questioned them many times about such a low cost.
After discussing this with the Harbor Commission, I called Carlile again.
They remembered giving me a quote of $67.88, but after questioning them
again, they re -figured it. They said they made a mistake. The new cost for
shipping is $300.00.
Please use substitute Ordinance 1718-96 to increase revenue and
appropriate the funds to purchase these 3 floats. This increases the cost by
$200 to cover the shipping increase.
The Harbor Commission supports Ordinance 1718-96 and the purchase of
the 3 floats. See the attached memorandum to the harbor Commission
dated 9/5/96.
A PO for the purchase of the 3 floats to Prescott Equipment is also included
in PO's over $2500 for council approval.
If this is approved, Public Works plans on working on these floats this
winter between snow falls. Please note that we will have to add flotation
logs at an estimated cost of $1570, later this year.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Harbor Commission
FROM: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director
DATE: September 5, 1996
SUBJECT: Dock - Additional Floats
FOR: Harbor Commission meeting of 9/9/96 - Approval
The Harbor Commission discussed using additional floats in the middle of
the river for dip -net fishermen to tie to while waiting to use the ramp. It
was decided that this could possibly create a liability situation for the city
and therefore the idea was dropped.
Since then, I have had discussions with Swede and Will Jahrig about how
we could use these floats at our facility. We are always in need of more
floating dock space!
We would like to purchase all three (3) floats, which are 8' x 32'. We plan
on replacing an existing 20' float with one of the new 32' ones on the floats
between the ramps. This will get us 12' further out into the river. We also
have some extra concrete ramp planks to extend the ramp. We are also
planning on setting up a set of floats where the old grid used to be. There
is already a ladder there that will work for access. These floats that we
want to purchase are actually metal frames only. The city will have to add
floatation logs to make them floats. We plan on fixing the floats this winter.
We feel that these floats would be very helpful to our facility and they are
well worth the cost of $2,000 each, for a total of $6,000. 1 received a
shipping cost from Carlile of $67.88 so put $100 in budget.
Public Works suggests that Harbor Commission pass a motion in support of
Ordinance No. 1718-96 and the purchase of these three (3) floats.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Williams and Council Member
THROUGH: Rick Ross, Acting City Manager
FROM: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Directo�
DATE: September 11, 1996
SUBJECT: Kenai (Dock - Bent Piling
FOR: City Council meeting of 9/18/96
Last winter a few of our 24" main steel pilings at the city dock were
damaged. I think that a huge sheet of ice hit and dented some of the piles.
These piles have a 1 /2" thick wall so I was very surprised.
Bill Nelson, the engineer that designed the dock, feels that the piles should
be filled with concrete, and I agree.
I have received the attached 3 estimates to fill the piles with concrete. The
lowest is from Tri City's Construction for a total cost of $5,987.50.
The city Finance Department suggested transferring the money that is
needed to do this from Dock Operating and Repair supplies to Dock Repair
and Maintenance. I have asked Finance to prepare a resolution to make this
transfer. Also included in PO's over $2500, is a PO to award this project to
Tri City's Construction.

Ernst explained this is the big item for tonight and drew attention to the drawings
provided in the packet. Ernst asked if the group had looked at it and if they had
comments. Ernst advised he had a few comments.
Group withdrew to the copy Ernst posted on the wall for discussion.
NOTE: FROMTHIS POINT, GROUP DISCUSSION AND MANY REFERENCES WERE
NOT CLEAR TO POINTS ON THE MAP.
Ernst stated they had included improvements that the Commission had talked about
like the taxiway. Ernst noted the one thing that is worrisome is the taxiway
extension that is about to be done. A $2 million dollar project. Showed how it is
placed on the drawing stating he would rather see the aircraft parking moved and
the strip moved. Edwards asked why and Ernst stated so we don't have to make
the "dog leg". Bielefeld stated he agreed and asked if the taxiway is aligned adding
it looks like it may be off a little. Discussion about how it seems off but compared
to the aerial view and noted it is very close. Ernst stated he would talk to Aires
and the project engineer with FAA and see what they think. Ernst stated if they
accept the plan, noting it has not been accepted yet, they should stay consistent
with it. Ernst stated if they can, move it over. Bielefeld stated he likes the idea of
a straight shot adding hutting parking on other side of strip complicates things.
Ernst stated if that is the case, then leave it where it is because either way it will
be close.
Bielefeld asked if the new taxiway will be as wide as the old one and Ernst stated
yes, 75 feet.
Thibodeau asked where they were now with the grass strip in relation to parking.
Ernst explained where the grass strip would be and the parking for it. Thibodeau
asked if it would have it's own access from the road. Ernst explained it would stay
there and have it's own access. Ernst stated the taxiway will be really close to the
runway itself. Ernst stated the worst case scenario would be taking the trees out
but those are the largest trees on the airport. Thibodeau stated it would be nice to
preserve some of those trees adding he thinks about Birchwood when they cut
down trees and then hundreds of aircraft got destroyed in the next big wind storm.
The trees would provide protection. Thibodeau stated it would be easy to leave
until needed and change as necessary.
Ernst stated that was his biggest concern. The other concern is the taxiway behind
the commercial slips. Possibly it could be moved over. Thibodeau stated he thinks
anyone who would want to lease in there would want access direct to their aircraft
in front of their place. Thibodeau added he didn't feel the taxiway would be used
that much but it is necessary to give access to the runway.
Ernst stated it was mainly to access this (pointing to map). Ernst stated the road
could easily be made into a taxiway adding he would like that better. Knackstedt
then you would have vehicular access up to the pond. Edwards what would you
do with the road. Ernst probably build another road probably on the inside.
Thibodeau noted there; would be one crossing then. Thibodeau then probably
Airport Commission September 12, 1996 Page 2
Minutes
another crossing for the commercial. Ernst stated you need to realize that is 400
feet also.
Bielefeld stated they are starting to talk about separating cars and aircraft at Lake
Hood. Bielefeld stated it seems to him they could combine the taxiway adding it
works pretty well at Lake Hood and it is a very short distance. Ernst stated the
FAA is very skittish and that is one of their top priorities. It would be a matter of
getting them to sign off on it. Thibodeau stated when you think about it and
picture cars, maybe the forward one would be good because it won't get that much
use and have a place that doesn't look that much like a taxiway but is a taxiway.
Thibodeau stated he didn't think it would get that much use and it might cut down
on a lot of vehicle problems. Bielefeld you have to have automobile access to float
planes.
Continued group discussion about possibilities and possibly moving wheeled aircraft
toward float pond. Ernst stated he hated moving wheeled aircraft toward the float
pond adding what is the facility for. Thibodeau commented you can't afford to
build a facility for just floats and Ernst stated they had did it. Thibodeau stated he
was speaking from a commercial operator's viewpoint.
Knackstedt asked if aircraft could use a road if prop not running? Noting they could
be towed backwards on the road. Thibodeau stated that somebody who had a
float plane over there might want to have a wheeled plane too and be working both
ends of the business.
Ernst stated he thought the FAA would have a real problem if start talking about
based wheeled aircraft over there too. Thibodeau stated it has to be only used to
get them back and forth once and a while. Ernst stated that is what he pictured it
as.
Knackstedt commented that this gate (on map) has limited access. Advised is it a
locking gate. Discussion about the gate and if it was necessary. Ernst stated it
will always be a gate because secure from the main airport. Bielefeld stated the
vassey lights have a click, click, click system and any airplane taxiing would have a
radio and could open the gate. Ernst stated the reason it is a wheeled gate now is
because there was not power over there before. Discussion about the gates and
problems in the past.
Bielefeld stated at Lake Hood variety of ways for access adding some planes are
moved to lake via fork lift or trailer. Bielefeld noted how Pennair has parking across
from taxiway and people walk across taxiway all the time.

Minutes
Ernst stated that maybe they should look at it again and think about it adding he
doesn't know what the time crunch is. Ernst stated maybe they could come up
with something more creative. Thibodeau asked when the future maintenance road
is proposed. Ernst stated in 99. Thibodeau stated coming around makes the most
sense. Ernst stated that would be his first choice. Holloway noted that is a long
distance for guys who will do it six times a day. Knackstedt asked if you will be
accessing the future middle marker, what is the savings. Knackstedt stated he
assumes they would have to have a road out to that too. Knackstedt stated what
is there now is a trail. Ernst asked how wide does road have to be. Knackstedt
stated for one vehicle. Thibodeau stated he has gone across the existing road with
a plane on a trailer. Ernst asked how wide it would have to be and Thibodeau
stated 20 feet adding any road would built would be 33 feet. Thibodeau stated it
would eliminate any chance of it being a regular thing and basically operating from
here would be basically floats but you could still get your airplane to take it off
floats, etc.
Ernst stated even though costly it would satisfy FAA and safety. Thibodeau noted
the tower would have control over them all the way in then. Thibodeau stated the
only problem is it makes sense and it would probably never work. Ernst stated he
would push for it. Thibodeau stated it does need to get around there so you can
start leasing lots.
Bielefeld another concern the runway noting he wants to make sure it is way in the
future. Ernst stated his has seen it in three different places adding he thinks they
just have to put it in to satisfy FAA. Ernst stated he didn't think they could just
eliminate it. Bielefeld stated it seems that the gravel strip would take care of any
need.
Ernst stated they should write it down to eliminate that strip and reroute the road.
Thibodeau stated the idea of the grass strip, an airport within an airport. A country
strip within a major airport complex. Maybe a place with picnic tables. Ernst
stated Lake Hood strip is like that. Ernst stated they can keep it friendly but there
will definitely be some rules and regulations. Thibodeau stated he thought having it
down and away where they have their own entrance with a lot more gravel, trees,
and grass would be nice. Ernst stated it could come off Marathon and Thibodeau
stated then they could have their own parking area.
Knackstedt stated it is; not clear what is going on at the south end of the float
pond. Ernst stated that is the maintenance road. Discussion about planned
improvements for the float pond.
Airport Commission September 12, 1996 Page 4
Minutes
Ernst stated we are in desperate need of sand noting the city is quickly running out.
Ernst showed where some excavation on map could help but added they are using
the fill.
Thibodeau stated he thought they should shoot for the road with a priority with an
extension down here rather than this (on map). Thibodeau stated he didn't think
they would find FBO's until they have access with wheeled aircraft to the tower or
runway environment. Thibodeau stated that having FBO's operating is what will
give the airport the traffic needed to justify doing the other work.
Ernst stated last month 421 operations on there. Thibodeau stated if you had an
FBO operating there it would be much higher. Ernst commented on how maybe
shifting the emphasis of the airport from where it is now to itinerant business.
Ernst added he didn't know how the council would look at that or what it would
cost.
Thibodeau asked how you build a road, lay out typar and cover it with sand.
Knackstedt stated you probably could but not a road you would pave. Knackstedt
stated you would want to take the peat out at least and use a typar material. Ernst
stated he thought it would make a good road base adding it is good sand and if it is
not disturbed. Thibodeau stated he remembers the pipeline where they just laid
trees across and then covered them. Ernst stated they found out it was better not
to disturb it.
Ernst stated that was his concerns and that he would convey them to Aires.
Knackstedt stated regarding the future wash rack and asked what it was doing
there. Ernst stated the: airport pollution prevention plan had storm water and EPA
and that they figure people washing their planes would become a problem. Ernst
noted it wasn't something he had put in there. Thibodeau stated planes have a
tendency to gather oil on them. Thibodeau stated they probably figure if there is a
place to do it even the FBO's might do it. Ernst stated he knows the point but is
not sure how much it Will be used. Bielefeld stated he has seen them used at
Merrill. Knackstedt stated the water will have to go somewhere adding he is not
sure how expensive it is. Thibodeau stated he has seen them and water runs
through with pellets and the water runs through and by the time it gets to the
bottom you can drink the water. The pellets are changed every once in a while.
Knackstedt noted there would be a problem somewhere, either at the sewer
treatment plant. Ernst stated it would take constant monitoring. Knackstedt stated
it may be a great idea but he was just wondering about it. Emst stated we are so
close to Cook Inlet.
Airport Commission September 12, 1996 Page 5
Minutes
Knackstedt stated they had done a lot of discussion on the southern approach as
far as a precision approach adding he had seen a letter from the FAA. Knackstedt
stated he didn't realize there were ground surface obstructions. Knackstedt
discussed slopes. Knackstedt stated he expected Aires to come back and say that
a precision approach didn't make sense because of the number of days that it will
be needed. Knackstedt stated they didn't. Ernst stated perhaps the Commission
should let them know adding it is the Commission's job to make comments.
Bielefeld stated it is true that there are not very many days that the weather isn't
so bad that you can't do the circling approach.
Ernst stated all of a sudden he has had a bunch of people doing GPS readings.
Today they were from NOAH placing markers (showed where on the map).
Another person from the university is at the glide slope shack doing something with
the surface of the earth to try to figure out when the next earth quake is.
Knackstedt stated it looks like the cost to the carrier would mean they would really
have to want to use it. It costs a lot of money for the equipment and training.
Adding he wasn't clear about where they talked about the airport putting in the
facility. Bielefeld stated that is the advantage because we don't need a facility.
Knackstedt read a portion of the letter stating what this would require. Knackstedt
stated they also talk about. lighting requirements. Bielefeld stated there are lighting
requirements for various types of approaches adding Soldotna doesn't have it.
Bielefeld explained the lighting approaches and how the minimums change.
Ernst stated that whatever concept is decided on adding he didn't think he would
see this in his tenure noting they had done one ten years ago. Ernst stated if you
go on the idea that it is still changeable and you may not see this in the next ten
years. Ernst stated they can be put in and then taken out as they go. Some things
have been done because they needed to be done. Ernst commented he felt that
overall he thought it looks good with the changes they had discussed.
Ernst stated he will talk to them and report back at the next meeting.
6. New Business
7. Airport Manager's Report
Ernst stated he needed to let them know they have done preapplication for the
Alaska Regional Fire Training Center and the taxiway extension. They have met
(Dave Burnett, Jack La Shot and himself) to review RFPs for the Fire Training
Center. Ernst stated they received six. They selected Morrison Maierle and are in
Airport Commission September 12, 1996 Page 6
Minutes
negotiations with them, at present for a price to do the project. Ernst showed the
group Morrison Maierle's proposal which shows the facility at Helena adding this is
basically what Kenai is looking at for their facility. Ernst noted they anticipate
going to grant in February when we have hard number from engineers. Ernst noted
the same is true of the taxiway extension. In this council meeting packet, not
trying to circumvent Airport Commission, had to put the award for council to
approve this bid, leaving blank the amount. The amount will be hand carried in.
Ernst noted this project has already been funded at $490,000. Ernst stated at this
meeting they will put in an ordinance to activate the taxiway extension to tune of
$125,000 which will cover engineering and RFP. That will be amount put into the
$2 million dollar project. Ernst noted that both of these projects will become actual
capital projects on books.
Ernst reported we are almost out of fuel will probably have to put more in. Ernst
noted they had had in excess of 3000 gallons. Ernst stated it is working smoothly.
There had been a couple calls stating not working but they didn't understand how
to operate it.
Ernst reported 421 operations this last month and anticipate September may be
similar.
Ernst noted they had gone out to bid for the sliding doors at the terminal. All sets
will be replaced starting in October. The back south door in process of replacing,
started but the core was wrong. Ernst stated this means they will have to get
another door.
S. Commission Comments and Questions
Holloway did you have comments on the C130 being in late last night. Ernst stated
that Chris Schmidt had called noting noise problem. Ernst stated the Coast Guard
came in Sunday with an overheated engine and they have been working on it.
Ernst stated they had brought in a lot of equipment.
Knackstedt asked if regarding the float plane basin if it is being worked on to get
into the AOPA. Ernst stated they have been working on that. Ernst stated it does
mention seaplane facility. Knackstedt stated it wasn't in the seaplane facilities
section.
Thibodeau asked if there has been anything more said about lights at either end of
the basin. Ernst stated it is just a matter of putting it together. Ernst stated they
are in a tough spot because have used all entitlement moneys and are looking until
construction year of 98 before we will have any more moneys. If it is a nominal
Airport Commission September 12, 1996 Page 7
Minutes
expense, it could be taken about from the airport fund. It would also depend on
how fast they would be talking about doing any extension of that. Ernst stated he
doesn't think they will have enough fill for the taxiway. Ernst stated they had
talked to the FAA about dredging the north end of the basin to get that fill. Until
there is an engineer on line to design it we won't know what the numbers are.
Ernst stated they have; taken a big hit on the stockpile and it has to be fairly clean
or they won't approve: it. Ernst stated they should keep it going noting they do
have power there now.
Bielefeld commented he wouldn't be in too big a hurry for lights if they are going to
be doing extensions. Bielefeld added he doesn't see point in putting in a few lights
until they can put in tine entire length for a legal night landing. Thibodeau disagreed
adding he thought it would be nice to even mark the ends. Thibodeau commented
on the need especially during hunting season or during search and rescue
operations.
Ernst stated the concern is safety because if they put something in that is less
there may be a liability. Bielefeld stated exactly if it is not approved system don't
do it. Bielefeld commented safer to put float plane on paved strip in emergency.
Thibodeau stated he doesn't know what an approved system is for a float plane
system. Ernst stated the basic threshold system is just lights on the end.
Thibodeau stated they could look into it and see what the minimum would be.
Knackstedt noted in the Aires memo they recommended moving the apron service
road out away from the terminal building. Knackstedt noted that has been a
problem for Ernst as the airport manager with people parking aircraft with wing tips
over it. If we did that sooner than later maybe, if functional, consider moving that
out then won't have the difficulties. Nobody will park further out on the ramp but
instead will park at fence. Knackstedt stated he thought the problems happened at
night or in the wintertime. Ernst stated that roadway, as he understands it, adding
he hates to see it. It is a whole different scenario if parking perpendicular to
facilities than parallel to them. Ernst stated he knows all the service roads for large
airports are out there but that is because they can't put them next to the terminal.
Ernst added he wanted to talk to them about that too. Knackstedt stated he didn't
even know that was a possibility. Ernst stated right now it wouldn't be prudent to
put it out there adding there is no reason to. Ernst explained that the one problem
we had has been resolved to a certain extent. Ernst stated it could have been
resolved early on when he takes his plane and puts it on his lease lot. Ernst stated
that was his recommendation. Now, everything he was told, he has done. Ernst
stated it is all paved now. Ernst noted it would have been a moot point. Ernst
noted he has been the only one they have had a problem with. Knackstedt clarified
it was not much of a problem anymore. Ernst stated not anymore adding he thinks
Airport Commission September 12, 1996 Page 8
Minutes
it would be a bigger problem to put the road out there now. Ernst reiterated he
doesn't see the need for it.
Bielefeld stated at this point it is fine right now. Knackstedt stated it was a
comment from Aires and it sparked a question. Ernst stated he had told them
before it was not one of his favorite ideas.
Koerber asked she was the only one missing the enplanements. Ernst stated he
didn't give them out. Southcentral hadn't provided their figures. Bielefeld offered
July was about 2400 people for Southcentral. Ernst added he had new computer
but had the Mac backup.
Thibodeau asked how the concession, Kangas concession, doing. Ernst stated he
hasn't checked with finance and doesn't know how she is doing. Ernst stated he is
assuming not real well. Knackstedt stated that she had been set up at Fred
Meyer's also. Edwards stated that is gone now also.
Ernst stated he was remiss in getting Knackstedt's comments into the packet so
they were handed out tonight. Ernst apologized for not getting it in the packet
adding it had been faxed to Aires.

appropriated the money. It is now ready to go out to bid on the 19th.
Kornelis stated that the Corps permit to allow the fill at the turnaround has not yet
been completed and they may have to do the fill later. He stated that there will be a
boardwalk to allow access to the dunes and a stairway is planned at Forest Park to
access the beach. Commissioner Jahrig stated that if it goes over budget, then the
stairs at Forest should be the first thing deleted. Councilman Bookey stated that
Council was concerned about going over budget and would probably cut the stairs
first. Kornelis ,stated that the project is supposed to be completed by May 1.
B. Additional Floats - Commissioner Jahrig stated that he spoke with Wayne Freaden and
felt it would be a good idea to use the added floats for the extra tie-up space.
Kornelis reported that Council has already had the first reading and they should be
able to appropriate the money for the floats at their next meeting. Councilman
Bookey stated that Council would need a good breakdown and use statement for the
floats. He stated that Council would also need to know the cost of the flotation logs
and shipping. Commissioner Jahrig stated that these could be added in stages as the
funds became available.
Kornelis stated that he had gotten a bid for filling the pilings with concrete at
$10,000. Commissioner McCune felt it would be nice to have the additional floats,
but questioned the need for them. Commissioner Jahrig stated it would help with
staging the boats.
Commissioner McCubbins MOVED to approve the ordinance and the purchase of the
three floats. Commissioner Spracher SECONDED the motion. The motion passed
with four yes votes and McCune voting no.
6. NEW BUSINESS

Commissioner McCune asked if the Commission is going to readdress the Snug Harbor lease
issue. Kornelis stated that Council approved the lease contract but that the Commission

options that other libraries use for handling internet use. Some libraries actually check out
Library Commission
September 3, 1996
Page 1
the machine for a given period of time using the patron's library card. There are also
screens available that allow only the user to view the screen. This preserves the patron's
privacy and screens what they are viewing from other patrons. Commissioner Forbes asked
if there was direction on minor's using the internet. Director DeForest responded that
parental permission is required for internet use by a minor.
Commissioner Peters asked if using a device to block certain channels was a violation of
rights. DeForest responded that the library is liable.
Commissioner Peters stated that one of the Seattle libraries has an evening program that was
geared to teenagers. Commissioner Brenckle felt that would be a good alternative to the Rec
Center for teenagers. Commissioner Peters suggested a winter reading program. DeForest
stated that they are going to have a writing contest through the Middle School and the Battle
of the Books will happen soon.
DeForest passed out a valuation sheet of books and materials presently owned by the library.
She stated that there will be a writer, Jackie Ells, who used to live in the area to have a book
signing.
6. FRIENDS REPORT
Commissioner Heus was not in attendance to give the Friends report.
7. OLD BUSINESS
Library Expansion Committee Report - Commissioner O'Reilly stated that the Friends are
meeting every Monday night until the bond issue. The Friends have divided their efforts
among the committee in order to better cover the issues. He passed out a preliminary report
and felt that the Friends have all the information necessary to make a supportive report.
Commissioner O'Reilly was concerned that the public be brought into awareness that taxes
do not necessarily have to be raised in order to support the bond issue. since the city will be
retiring their existing bonds soon. He stated that the existing revenue currently being used to
pay these bond expenses could cover the new bond. Councilman Moore stated that the city
was at a deficit this year and wasn't sure how much of that money might be geared to cover
expenses.
Commissioner O'Reilly passed out a draft letter from the Friends to the Clarion. He asked
that any recommendations or suggestions on the letter go to Laurie.

8. NEW BUSINESS
Library Policy on Internet Use - Commissioner Peters wanted everyone to be aware of
library internet use. Director DeForest stated that she would like to get the Commission's
thoughts on a policy before one is written up. She liked the idea of checking the computer
out on the patron's library card. She felt this would allow the ability to track how much it is
used.
Commissioner O'Reilly f:lt that after the bond issue is over, the library needs to look at the
issue of computer use and what direction the library wants to go in the future.
9. COMMISSIONER COMMENTS/OUESTIONS

commission. He reminded everyone of Monday's Friends meeting.

Chairman Glick noted that although this was not a public hearing he would accept
public testimony.
Megan O'Neill, 5450 King Salmon Drive. O'Neill stated they live next to the lot
they are speaking about and maintain the road. O'Neill stated the road needs to be
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 2
Minutes September 11, 1996
updated if anybody else is going to be living there. When it is plowed sometimes and
there is too much snow, they have to bring in front end loaders. It requires four wheel
drive a few weeks out; of the year. O'Neill stated she felt that if anybody is looking to
have more than one or two houses if they will be building in that area, they need to
upgrade the road. O'Neill added that this is the requirement of the land below them.
Glick asked O'Neill which street they lived on and was advised King Salmon Drive.
O'Neill stated they road they are talking about upgrading is their driveway.
Bryson asked which of the easements or streets that appear on the plat itself, which is
developed? La Shot stated King Salmon Drive. Bryson noted that King Salmon Drive
and Chisik are shown.. La Shot stated Chisik Street is a city maintained street and
added that King Salmon Drive contains a driveway to O'Neill's house which is on Lot 1
of Reidel Subdivision. O'Neill noted that it is basically a driveway and two cars couldn't
use it at the same time.
Bryson noted the property is not dedicating any ROW with action; they are splitting a
lot without dedication. of ROW. Bryson stated he would assume that the city doesn't
require a road agreement on this.
La Shot stated we do, and it doesn't necessary have to involve ROW dedication. La
Shot offered the following history: When lots 1 and 2 of Reidel SD was platted, the
entire 60 feet of King Salmon Drive was dedicated at that time from the Reidel
property. Reidel wanted to subdivide off Lot 1 so he could sell it. The city did allow
that without install agreement; however a note was placed on plat that further
resubdivision of Lot 2 would require an installation agreement. Now, across the street
four lots are being formed which would enter the ROW dedicated by Reidel. It appears
appropriate that they should be required to join into an installation agreement. Bryson
asked who? La Shot stated the owners of the property that this is platting.
Bryson asked which tract dedicated the right of way. La Shot stated it was dedicated
by the Reidels. Bryson commented that they committed another property to an
installation agreement. La Shot stated Reidel on the other side of the street dedicated
a full ROW. Normally, they would dedicate half. La Shot noted that any further
resubdivision of that property would require construction or half construction of the
street.
Chairman Glick asked. if additional questions of Ms. O'Neill. None noted.
Glick asked La Shot if he had additional comments. La Shot stated nothing but that he
does recommend the installation agreement.
Christian asked if there is anything proposed along Lot 5 adding that he sees lines on
the plat. La Shot stated this plat will dedicate a half a right of way to match the
existing half adding that is the normal procedure. Christian asked when you say that
Planning & Zoning Commission

they need to get into this installation agreement, what are you saying. La Shot
explained it means to improve the road.
Bryson asked if we were done with public testimony. Glick asked if anyone had
additional comments. None noted.
Bryson noted that apparently the Rex Eagle homestead dedicated a 30 foot right of way.
La Shot confirmed this. Bryson stated he wondered why they were being allowed to
dedicate a 30 foot easement rather than a full dedication. La Shot noted that normally
half a dedication is the way it is normally done. Then, when the property subdivides
across the street, they dedicate the other half. Bryson noted they are proposing a ROW
easement, not a ROW period. La Shot stated he is not sure whey they called it an
easement. Bryson noted they retain use of that property. La Shot stated he is not as
worried about that one due to the flag configuration. It may be appropriate to say
further resubdivision of Lot 5 would require an installation agreement for M Street
properties.
Bryson questioned if the Rex Eagle property was outside the city limits asking if the
limits are right on that line,. La Shot stated yes and that further complicates it. At this
time there is no street :in there.
Goecke asked what happens with this subdivision now and the installation agreement
is that the developer on this plat must bring King Salmon Drive up to code even though
it is on the Reidel property. La Shot stated that was right noting it was in a right of
way.
Bryson asked if the parent property of this addition number one was part of the Reidel
property noting it is in the same quarter section. Bryson asked what created this
quarter section? Was it transfered from the state? La Shot read the legal description
adding it is all one property and he doesn't know where it came from.
Christian asked when we are going through and we require installation agreement. Do
we hold off approval until they do this or do we approve it and they are expected to do
it. La Shot explained it is approved with the stipulation that there be an installation
agreement. The borough will not file the plat until the installation is completed or
there is an agreement.
Bryson stating he didn't know where the city boundary is other than it lies on the solid
line at the bottom of the plat. Bryson questioned if on the right hand side is also in city
limits, between unsubdivided and Ridgeview Addition. La Shot stated he thinks the
property line is on the north boundary. (The group took time for Ms. O'Neill and La
Shot to look at maps.) La Shot advised that city limits run along the south and the east
boundaries of this plat;.
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 4
Minutes September 11, 1996
Bryson stated he is uncomfortable with a nondedication of a 30 foot right of way on the
north adding he doesn't know the access problem on the east. Bryson stated that
particularly with the 30 foot ROW existing south of this property, it would seem
appropriate to dedicate that 30 foot easement particularly since they are breaking this
into a lot situation. Goecke commented making it a dedicated 30 foot ROW instead of
an easement. Bryson stated that is what he felt was appropriate adding that the
borough may comment on it.
La Shot stated they may have done that to try to avoid an installation agreement. La
Shot added that the surveyor had indicated they didn't plan to get into that with the
city since they weren't dedicating on King Salmon Drive. La Shot noted his
recommendation is to have an installation agreement. La Shot noted he is not worried
about the M Street right of way because of the large Lot 5 configuration. They could
enter from Chisik and if they further resubdivide La Shot noted at that time he would
recommend an installation agreement.
Goecke commented that he thinks it would be cleaner if we required the 30 foot ROW
dedicated now and have it over with on the south side. Goecke stated if he is breaking
it up, there is a chancre he will continue and will just have to come back. La Shot stated
that at that time we can require street construction on M Street. Goecke stated he
would rather see the :ROW on the south side of Lot 5 a dedicated ROW rather than
ROW easement.
Bryson asked if they were to come in for a building permit on Lot 5, would their setback
have to consist of 25 feet from the ROW edge or from the property line. La Shot stated
from the end of the ROW. Bryson clarified from the ROW easement. La Shot stated
they would take the easement line as the beginning point for the setback.

Glick additional staff comments. La Shot stated nothing additional adding that they
did obtain a variance to encroach in the rear yard previously. When they finished the
house, found they were encroaching in the front yard. Had they moved house back one
foot, for example, they would have been okay. La Shot stated he thinks they tried to
give a little more rear yard to the house.
Smalley asked Chairman Glick if it would be appropriate to ask a question of La Shot.
Glick advised yes. Smalley asked what would prevent these encroachment requests in
the future asking if there is something that the city can do to prevent these from
occurring. La Shot stated he thought the closest thing would be to require that the
house corners be staked in the field by surveyor. Now they are required to submit a
plot plan from a certified surveyor and an asbuilt but it doesn't require them to
physically stake the corners. Smalley asked if we had any idea of the cost to have those
stakes done to identify the corners? La Shot estimated from $100 to $200. Smalley
commented if an encroachment isn't granted, there is a cloud on a house and it can't be
financed.
Mark Zimmerman, Route HC, Bog 755, Soldotna—Zimmerman explained he was
the one who did it. Zimmerman stated he had gotten the permit explaining it was a
tight lot and tried to maximize it. Zimmerman stated they could have gotten the house
on the lot okay but would have had to have turned it and wouldn't look right with the
other houses which are square with the street. Zimmerman explained they got permit
to straighten the house with the street. Zimmerman noted they had the lot surveyed
because it was so tight. When the concrete subcontractor came out Zimmerman noted
they had a discussion about getting right and was assured it was right. Zimmerman
stated they set the footings and laid the block. Zimmerman stated he checked it and
the house ended up being turned a little, didn't go into the back as far as first thought.
Zimmerman explained. that there is a bedroom that sticks out on the front and when he
checked the left hand corner it was okay, the right hand corner was 6 inches over the
line. The house ended up with a little twist that put that bedroom over. Zimmerman
explained they were trying to get it too tight. Zimmerman noted he could have just
pushed the house back because he had permission to do that but were trying to get it
right and missed. Zimmerman offered this as a point of explanation and added they
did survey the lot because of the tightness of the house.
Bryson commented that this, to him, is a typical situation. They attempted to do it
right, followed rules on book, and at some point something relatively minor occurs.
Bryson noted he thinks this is the appropriate use of this type of approval, after the fact
and it is acknowledged at this time. Bryson stated he thinks this is the purpose of the
ordinance rather than. a violation.

Goecke asked Chairman Glick if it would be appropriate to ask Mr. Zimmerman a
question. Glick advisE�d yes.
Goecke asked Mr. Zimmerman if in his estimation with what they were talking about
earlier with requiring the corners to be staked, would that additional cost be a
detriment to you as a builder. Goecke added that we all know that would be passed on.
In your case, if the city had required you to have your surveyor stake the corners of the
house to make sure you are within the setbacks, would that $100 more.
Zimmerman stated he has never heard of a surveyor staking corners of a house.
Smalley commented he thought it was property corners. Bryson stated they are talking
about putting about references for corners of the house. Zimmerman stated when they
know it is going to be this tight adding they had to do the preliminary and that was
why he had the surveyor locate the lot corners. Zimmerman commented that in some
cases it might not be a. bad idea adding that in some cases you cannot always find those
corners. Zimmerman commented that if he hadn't surveyed it he might have been two
feet off.
Goecke stated his question was if had the city required the surveyor to stake the
corners of the house prior to digging, and this costs from $100 to $200, would that cost
extra to pay surveyor be a detriment to the sale of that house? Zimmerman responded
it wouldn't but you have to dig afterwards and it is hard to keep the stakes there for the
house. Zimmerman added that if you string the corners from the lot, you can measure
off the strings. Zimmerman explained how the excavation makes it difficult to
maintain the stakes. ;:.7,immerman explained that he had gone back and checked and
the left corner of the bedroom and it was okay but it was the right corner that was over.
Zimmerman added you cannot keep stakes on the corners during construction.
Zimmerman commented that he thinks when doing a certified plot plan, in some cases
it wouldn't be a bad idea to say you need to survey this.

PUBLIC HEARING OPENED.
Jim White, 1509 Toyon Way White explained his property is three lots away from
this property. White questioned if a guide could come in and rent this and have fish
fries every night, people drinking beers, and rattling coolers and throwing them in the
boat at 5 a.m. Could that happen? White noted this is not a bed and breakfast if the
owner doesn't live there. Instead more like a Comfort Inn where you rent a room and
get a continental breakfast.
La Shot noted the applicant indicated daily rental with breakfast service and/or dinner
and didn't indicate if the owners would live there or not.
White commented that next to his property there are two empty lots and asked what
would keep someone from building another motel there? White asked if that could
happen or would they have to go through someone.
La Shot asked Glick if he wanted him to answer theequestions.
Lats Shot stated it wanted
Conditional Use Permit is specific to this property. sanyother
to do something similar, they would have to go through the same process.
White asked if it would it be easier since the precedent was set. La Shot agreed it may
set some precedent.
White stated that based on that this, he would be opposed to this separation of
commercial versus residential properties. White stated that this is a nice property,
expensive property on the bluff and wouldn't want to see my property damaged as by
what I see as a motel.
DeWayne Craig —Listed residence as Vancouver, Washington at present. Craig stated
that when talking about how to fill out the application when talking to people upstairs
they indicated that a bed and breakfast specifically designed for residential house.
Craig stated that what he wants to do is operate a bed and breakfast adding he would
live there and take all the pride that someone would take in their own home. Craig
stated he feels he has demonstrated that over the years. Craig noted he has won a
beautification award, put steps in to the beach, put bench there, planted the beach
grass along the walkway, and planted the trees. Craig stated he feels he has shown
pride and ownership. The concern about the lots next door that are vacant next to Dr.
Bailie is specifically zoned in the covenants for single family. Craig stated his lot was
specifically zoned for apartments adding the whole street all zoned for apartments and
that there aren't any residents there on Forest Drive. Craig stated that right now the
way it is being rented someone could have a beer party and it could last all night.
Adding there is nothing keeping it from happening. Craig commented that he felt with
a bed and breakfast situation there would be a lot more control as you would be living
there and could evict them on the spot. In an apartment it takes weeks sometimes to
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 8
Minutes September 11, 1996
get somebody out of apartment. Craig commented that the apartment, the next one up
street the gray one, was used by Louie for a couple summers as a nightly rental noting
this was the overflow from Louies. Craig noted there has been some precedence set.
Craig noted he wouldn't want to use it as an overflow but wanted to use it as a bed and
breakfast.
Christian asked Craig if his intention is to live in it. Craig stated absolutely. Craig
noted he has been living outside, has grand kids here, and has been trying to figure out
a way to come back four or five months in the summer. Christian asked what Craig's
plan was for the other months? Craig stated it will be either vacant or as it always has
been, rented as an apartment.
PUBLIC H EARING CLOSED.
Glick asked if there was an additional staff report. La Shot noted if the commission
would like the owner to occupy the building when they rent it by the night, they should
make a specific motion. La Shot noted this was not noted in either the application or
the staff report.
Chairman Glick drew attention to the items handed out tonight relating to this item.
La Shot asked if there were any questions on handout.
Werner-Quade asked if this handout 6b is in regard to this particular rental
application? La Shot stated yes. Werner-Quade asked what the intent was and if it
was to point out the regulations? La Shot noted the one memo is from the Kornelis'.
Werner-Quade asked if that is the Public Works Director. La Shot stated yes and that
he is attempting to show that this is a use not shown in the land use table. The other
item is to show things that were done to allow uses that were not listed in the land use
table.
La Shot stated he thinks memo from Kornelis was submitted as a citizen. Werner-
Quade asked if it is in opposition. L a Shot stated it appears to be. Werner-Quade
concurred with that. Werner-Quade stated she would like to note this is an apartment
and is not four separate cabins.
Goecke noted he got as much as ever of calls from people in that neighborhood from
people complaining although noted there is not one here tonight. Goecke noted it may
be because he knows some of the people who live over there. Goecke stated they were
not real happy when they got this letter and called. Goecke noted he has a problem
with it adding he doesn't think that that neighborhood was ever thought to be designed
for a nightly thing. This is not a commercial zone. Goecke stated he thinks that is the
way it should be and think it should be left that way. Goecke stated that nightly
rentals, to me, are a little more on the commercial side. Goecke noted that because of
this he will be voting against this.
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 9
Minutes September 11, 1996
Christian asked if Mr. La Shot indicated that if we wanted to make a specification that
we do it in a motion. Glick confirmed this.
CHRISTIAN MOVED THAT THIS B&B BE OWNER OCCUPIED AT THE TIME
THAT IT IS USED AS A DAILY RENTAL. AND, AT ANY SITUATION THAT HE
IS NO LONGER IN RESIDENCE THAT THE CUP BE WITHDRAWN.
MOTION DIES FOR LACK OF A SECOND.
Bryson stated the conditional use permit applicaton does not state that it is requested
to be used as a bed and breakfast. Bryson stated he didn't see where he uses that word.
So, presumably we cannot approve it on that basis.
La Shot stated the reason the CUP was used because of them being apartments and the
square footage being used would exceed that allowed for bed and breakfast. If you put a
stipulation that the owner did occupy it during times of nightly rental it may amount to
the same thing without it really having the definition of a bed and breakfast.
Smalley stated that he thinks a number of years ago when serving on P&Z there was a
situation in VIP where a four plex that came to the same procedures. Smalley stated he
thought this was right about the time that approved of B&B ordinance. This was an
apartment complex that the owner lived in one of the units and the other units were
then allowed to be used as B&B's, like La Shot was saying. Smalley noted so there is
precedence on record. Smalley stated with Christian's motion that failed a concern that
when it is not owner occupied that the CUP be completely gone which means he would
have to apply again. There is a precedence in the city where conditional use for B&B's
of such are on record in residential areas.
Werner-Quade stated she did not have trouble with the amendment until if Mr. Craig
isn't there then CUP would be revoked. Werner-Quade asked what if he had to go out
of town suddenly for an emergency, what if he has a daughter or someone else who
could oversee the B&B. Werner-Quade stated that is why she couldn't support the
amendment even though supporting the basics and think someone should be there.
Werner-Quade stated she would want that to be Craig but if someone should check and
you are out of town the permit revoked.
Bryson stated concerning the staff reference to difference general conditions how this
proposed use affects the neighborhood and the area. Bryson stated he doesn't feel that
the access problem where it might increase traffic is valid. Presumably the units are
already created so the traffic count wouldn't modify that much. Bryson noted Forest
Drive is the same width development on the north end of Redoubt Terrace as on the
south. Virtually half the subdivision uses the north end and only Toyon Way uses the
south end. Bryson stated he feels the infrastructure is adequate. As far as the affect on
neighbors, I would think it would have an affect. Bryson stated you get into a situation
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 10
Minutes September 11, 1996
that could the lot next to it justify the same use because their neighbors have that and
at that point, where d10 you stop.
Christian stated he agrees that there is so much traffic on Forest that he doesn't see
much increase in traffic there. There seems to be adequate parking for numerous units.
Craig noted that for the first year he just planned on renting one or two units.
Christian stated it doesn't seem it will be that large a burden because Forest Drive is a
very active street. Christian stated he would think impact would be minimal.
Christian stated he would like to see something in there that would identify this as a
bed and breakfast which says the owner would occupy building when it is used as a bed
and breakfast. Christian noted he would like to make a proposal that would keep this
from being rescinded as soon as he leaves.
CHRISTIAN MOVE THAT THIS CUP WOULD BE WRITTEN AS A BED &
BREAKFAST UNDER THE STIPULATIONS ALREADY IN THE CODE FOR
B&B AND THAT ON A LONG TERM BASIS WHEN THE OWNER IS NO
LONGER OCCUPYING THE BUILDING THAT THE USE AS A BED &
BREAKFAST BE TAKEN AWAY EITHER TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENLY.
BRYSON SECOND THE MOTION.
Smalley noted he cau;;ht one thing when talking about the stipulations in the code in
reference to bed and breakfast, it gives a specific square footage in a home. The
precedence that has been set in apartment is larger than that 30 percent figure. Do
you want to leave it ail; that 30 percent or make it a similar situation where it is more
than the 30 percent. Smalley noted he believed the one in VIP is three of the four
apartment units were rentals.
Christian stated he has a problem if we go with the 30 percent either this owner or a
subsequent owner could subdivide into numerous rooms that could make it into 8 or 12
units and noted he wouldn't like to see that either.
Smalley stated the amendment could speak to the number of apartments that would be
allowed for B&B in the facility.
Werner-Quade asked :For clarification of how many units there were and that the owner
intends to occupy one. That would leave three units available for the nightly rental.
Werner-Quade stated if amendment was changed to state that the owner would occupy
one of the existing four units leaving three available for nightly rentals that would be
an amendment she could support.
Christian stated he would change amendment.

GOECKE RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF PZ96-60, LANDSCAPE/SITE PLAN
REVIEW, PAD C, COOK INLET INDUSTRIAL AIR PARK. MOTION
SECONDED BY CHRISTIAN.
Glick asked if there was anything additional to the staff report. La Shot noted nothing
as long as everyone understands that this is one of the small pads in front of Carrs.
Bryson went on record as abstaining from discussing or voting on this as working on
other phases of this.
Christian asked if we are talking about the first pad on left or the second. La Shot
stated the first pad as going east from the intersection past Dairy Queen. Christian
asked if he understands this and that they will have a fence facing Spur Highway, a
wooden gate to match fence. Christian stated he is wondering what fence adding it says
a 6 foot high cedar fence and that is what will be facing the Spur Highway. La Shot
stated it is hard to see but looks like a short piece of fence. Christian asked if it is to
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 12
Minutes September 11, 1996
hide trash bins. ChriStian noted we are not being told what retail business will be in
this. La Shot stated he didn't think it was a secret adding he thinks this is a
pizza/video place. Christian stated the entrance is by way of the two parking lots on the
side? La Shot stated he believes so. Christian added that the front that faces Carrs
does not have entrances. La Shot stated he couldn't say for sure from looking at this.
Christian stated his worry is that as we are driving through town and looking at the
back end of a building; adding he would object to that. Christian stated he would like to
see the finished building. Christian stated it looks like it will be facing Carrs and all
the landscaping on the side facing Carrs. Christian stated he realizes there is existing
landscaping on the road side. Christian stated it doesn't give us as much information
as I would like to have. Christian asked if it is possible Bryson could explain more.
Bryson stated he was not familiar adding that his firm is doing the water and sewer.
Goecke stated he is oi:'the same opinion as Christian. Goecke stated he has a hard time
with putting the fenced in dumpster and loading dock on the Spur Highway adding that
he understands what the developer is wanting to do. The developer has the whole
parcel and he is wanting it to be an all inclusive thing. Goecke stated that as long as
the entrances are on the side, he would think that this would be better served if that
building was turned 1.80 and that dumpster was next to a parking lot not out to the
street. Goecke stated he was wondering adding that maybe it shouldn't even be
brought up but asking the developer about that (noted he wasn't here). Goecke stated
he would like to either personally or have someone ask him his intent. Goecke noted
that consequently this would mean putting this on hold.
Glick asked Goecke if he would like to make a motion to table to the next meeting.
GOECKE MOVED TO TABLE RES PZ96-60 UNTIL NEXT MEETING OR UNTIL
WE CAN ACQUIRE MORE INFORMATION FROM THE DEVELOPER WITH
INFORMATION AS TO HIS CRITERIA FOR PUTTING THE BACK SIDE TO
THE HIGHWAY.

Werner-Quade questioned if under New Business 7a was it changed as on agenda it
says 96-57 and questioned if it should be it 96-60. Kebschull advised it should be 96-60
as noted on the resolution and note the change on the agenda.

a. City Council
Page 13
September 11, 1996
Smalley advised he didn't arrive at the meeting until the Commission and Committee
reports were being given. Smalley noted on the agenda you can see what was passed.
Item 2 made arrangements to pay interim city manager just more than the highest paid
city employee noting that is right at $7,000 a month. Smalley noted he is responsible
for all taxes, etc. He gets no retirement, etc.
During the committee reports a number of openings on different commissions were
noted and you may have received letters indicating there are other openings. Smalley
noted it is not because council thinks you should move on. Primarily other
commissioners get it when openings on this Commission because this is a truly working
commission. Smalley noted that not that the other commissions aren't but this one
meets twice a month and does more business for the city.
Old business, Item 1 and 2, set a meeting for the 16th on the Comprehensive Plan. You
will be invited to meeting on Monday. Also information on FY98 capital matching
grants programs will be presented beginning at 7 p.m.
Top of page three, the Garcia building in Cunningham Park. Smalley noted that clearly
the building is on city property. He has been at a stop order on his development and
the city is wanting the problem to be remedied. Smalley stated he would suggest that
by the evacuation of Mr. Garcia's work. Smalley added he didn't think those words
were in the minutes; however, he felt that was the intent.
New business, Smalley explained the reason why #4 pulled off, they wanted to deal
with it and it was passed. The advertisement item for the new city manager identified
publications that would be used for advertising. Those advertisements will go out
November 1st with a closure the 15th of December. Smalley explained it has to go into
November as some publications have minimum of 30 days pre -notice for advertising.
Smalley advised the city will be advertising in journals in lower 48. Smalley listed the
publications that will be used. Smalley stated they feel we will get a large number of
applications. Already have received one application which was unsolicited. Council is
looking at somewhere in January, February, or March being the date to expect a new
city manger on line. Council will meet in October to go through expectations, duties,
responsibilities of that position. Council is clarifying some of the issues from last time
because there was some confusion because it wasn't specific. Council will make a
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 14
Minutes September 11, 1996
decision if it will be reviewing the applications and holding interviews or if we will
contract with another firm. Last time elected to do it because fees run $18,000 to
$20,000 but when hiring someone who is basically CEO with salary of $100,000 small
fee to pay.
Inlet Woods subdivision lights put in seven light poles. Item 7, Smalley explained the
city is purchasing an evergreen tree and memorial plaque and placing in Leif Hansen
Memorial Park for a past councilman and mayor and teacher in the district for many
years, Eugene Morin.
b. Borough Planning
Bryson stated there was a regular meeting last Monday. Prior to the regular meeting a
work session on the borough's position considering ADEC's withdrawal from
wastewater review in borough. That was the third work session and have one more set.
On the regular agenda, Item C, all items approved without change. Item G, vacations
not requiring public hearing, request for vacation of utility easement was approved.
Special consideration items were all approved. Bryson noted an interesting one is
number 5. Jake Ivanoff, prior to the borough selected lands from the state, he had
made application to the federal government for a larger piece of property. That was lost
by the agency handling it and this is an attempt to settle the claim that Ivanoff has on
that property. It has been proposed and he would accept a five acre tract in that area.
On plats nine were reviewed. One was tabled pending public hearing. Item J, Kenai
River Habitat Protection, an individual proposed construction of a carport at River mile
15.2. The structure he has there was partially damaged by last year's flood. After
going through the testimony it was indicated he was proposing to enlarge what he has
rather than just rebuild. Action was to deny the request. He still would be allowed to
reconstruct what he has there noting he doesn't need a permit for that.
Werner-Quade questioned on the Kenai River Habitat, when he asked to expand and
the commission denied. What was the reason for the denial. Bryson stated he thinks
the sentiment was that the ordinance states that you cannot increase the development
in those areas near this bank. Bryson noted he happened to be on the other side of the
issue. The meeting before four situations that came up. He showed pictures of the way
these subdivisions appear. Bryson stated he assumes it is much the same situation and
couldn't conceive any impact than there is there already. Werner-Quade explained her
reasons for asking is hi case those issues should come to the city adding she knows the
fragility of the habitat that may come into play.

5. OLD BUSINESS
a. Banners
Helen Brown and Claire Donahue were in attendance to speak to the Committee
regarding the banners.
Claire Donahue asked to see the designs the Committee already had.
Hatt stated that Linda Swarner took the designs to High Flying Banners in Seattle
for a price quote which was faxed to city hall and handed out at this time.
Helen Brown showed the miniature banners she did using the dye discussed at the
Page 2
Kenai Beautification Minutes
September 10, 1996
last meeting. She stated one of the banners was washed 20 times to see if the
dye is colorfast. Showing the banner, it appears the color is virtually the same as
one that had not been washed. Ms. Brown explained to the Committee how the
dye works with the fabric.
Ms. Brown explained that a steamer is used to set the dye into the fabric. She
said that it can be done with a regular stove top steamer, except because of the
size of the banners the City is looking at, a much larger steamer would be needed.
Brown said she priced them from $300 and up. Her husband put together some
plans to build a large steamer for a minimal price. Brown went on to state the
fabric was quoted at $3.95/yd., plus shipping from L.A., and is sold in 100 yd.
bolts. She roughly quoted one bolt to cost $460.00. The fabric is 60" wide so
the banners would be 30" x 8'. Brown said the dye is fairly inexpensive, roughly
$65.00 for all 24 colors, and eventually she would like to be reimbursed for it.
Brown stated that 66 banners could be made out of a 100 yd. bolt of fabric if they
are 28" wide rather than 30" wide. (Making the banners 2-1 /2' x 8'.)
The Committee asked Brown for a rough estimate for 66 banners. Brown stated
she would guess a rough total of $800 to $850 which includes volunteer labor.
She said the estimate does not include $25.00 per design to be paid to the artist
for their design. Brown gave Hett copies of Copyright information for the artists.
She said the artist would basically be giving the City of Kenai the right to use
his/her design.
There was some discussion among the Committee regarding making smaller
banners for sale in gift shops. Brown said the cost would be approximately
$100.00.
Hett asked for a timer frame for production of the banners. Brown asked how
many the City is looking at and Nord estimated 70 or 80. Brown said she could
probably have at least half by May 1, or Labor Day. She added that she would
have to be reimbursed by the City in a timely manner (within 30 days) for the
purchase of the bolt of fabric.
Brown said that Bunny Swan offered to do some Dena'ina art work for the
banners, all the Committee has to do is call her. There was further discussion
concerning different native cultures art from around the state.

MOTION
Barb Nord Moved to have the Beautification Committee ask the Parks and Rec.
Committee for money to purchase these banners. Marilynn Dimmick Seconded.
The Motion passed by Unanimous Consent.
Linda Swarner asked Ms. Brown if she will warranty her work. Brown stated she
can warranty it for repairs for up to three years if the banners are not up through
the winter months. She added that she intends to hang a sample banner in
extreme light, i.e. fluorescent grow lights, for the winter to test the dye's colorfast
ability.
Hatt stated the Committee's greatest concern is probably the wind causing tears.
Brown stated that reinforcement can be added to the wind slits. She went on to
explain the heated exacto knife she found to use for the wind slits.
The Committee asked about the steamer and who's property it becomes once
built. Brown asked that the City pay for the material for the steamer and they will
donate the labor, but the steamer will become the property of the Art Guild. She
added the cost will be minimal, her husband even found a free gas burner to use
for it.
There was some discussion among the Committee concerning different designs
and Claire Donahue passed around some pictures of her work. Hatt was asked to
request some flower and Dena'ina designs from Bunny Swan.
6. NEW BUSINESS
a. Baskets
Hatt reported that Bob Frates was going to discuss this item with the Committee.
She stated she believes he is asking for support to have the greenhouse heated
during the winter to see what can be grown. Pat Porter offered to donate some
plants from the Senior Center for the project if approved.
Nord stated that she can attest to the low cost of running a greenhouse through
out the winter. She said her electric runs approximately $70/month, which
includes her home and greenhouse.

Kenai Beautification Minutes
September 10, 1996
Barb Nord Moved for the Committee's unanimous consent to support having the
greenhouse heated all year. Marilynn Dimmick Seconded. Motion passed by
Unanimous Consent.
b. Winter Meetings
Hett stated that the Committee did not meet from October through December in
past years. She suggested they do meet in October to discuss the banners some
more.
The Committee unanimously agreed to meet October 8, 1996 and suspend
meetings until January, 1997.
7. REPORTS
a. Chairperson
Hett reported that the trip to Anchorage was fun and very informational. Overturf
asked if there are any new ideas to give Parks & Rec. for next year. Hett passed
around some pictures taken.
There was further discussion among the Committee concerning names of plants in
the pictures.
Hett reported the Parks & Rec. bought some plants from Kenai River Nursery's sale
with funds left over from the Rotary donation.
b. Parks & Rec„
c. Council
Swarner commented on the donation requested by Brown to the Art Guild. She
said she didn't understand what Brown was asking for. The Committee agreed
with Swarner. Swarner said she will contact Brown to try and clarify the donation
request.
There was discussion among the Committee concerning the cost difference
between High Flying Banners cost and having local people do the work with
volunteers.
Page 5
Kenai Beautification Minutes
September 10, 1996
Dimmick suggested having volunteers make some designs for flower beds the Parks
& Rec. crews could work with next year. She said she would volunteer to do a
couple, that it is just a thought and asked the Committee for their comments.
The Committee unanimously agreed to bring some designs to the next meeting and
asked to have the item put on the Agenda.
Nord suggested to design the beds so that late bloomers come up over early
bloomers that die off sooner.

Alaska Challenger Center for Space Science and Technology
Project Summary
August 1996
The work of developing an organizational plan is near culmination with
the crafting of draft by-laws based on organizational ideas
brainstormed by the committee and consultant. Cary Graves, City
attorney has been instrumental in preparation of this and the
incorporation documentation. The steering committee is expected to
finalize and adopt the by-laws at the September 5, 1996 meeting.
An election of board officers will be held following the adoption of the
by-laws.
The City of Kenai has received notice that the Alaska Challenger
Center for Space Science & Technology is an authorized non-profit
organization. With this organizational phase complete, serious fund
raising can occur.
Flundraising
Northwest Strategies has proposed terms for contingency based
fundraising. A draft contract is before the steering committee for
approval on September 5. Kevin Bruce, President of NWS will be
present at the meeting to finalize the agreement. We have proposed a
fund raising strategy plan be presented to the board at the October
meeting with implementation starting November 1, 1996.
Jamie Kensworthy, Executive Director, Alaska Science & Technology
Foundation (ASTF) recently reported that the Board of Directors
recently reviewed its policy regarding funding of facilities such as ours.
They determined that science centers are educational, and like
Imaginarium of Anchorage and the Seward Sealife Center, the Alaska
Challenger Center for Space Science & Technology will not be eligible
for funding from the foundation. He kindly offered advisory support
however and asked to be kept up on the project's progress.

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
IN THE MATTER OF MICHAEL CHRISTIAN
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 2
Christian: Okay. I would like to present to you the reason for
the zone. Why we put some time into it and some of the
background to it if you wouldn't mind.
Um, last year we were working with a ah element on zoning and ah,
we realized that there were a few discrepancies in some of the
zones, for instance, particularly, the fact that there is no
single family zone in any of our zones in the city coordinates.
And with that as a thought, and the fact that what we're trying
to look at, a committee of our members, mostly Woodland
Subdivision members, we thought that maybe we could propose, not
just a single-family zone, but also a high-class, or first-class
zone that could be used in a subdivision to attract the better
quality homes and. ah, protect people's homes that are in this
subdivision. Being in Woodland, we started out with subdivision
that had pretty high standards. With time, the standards
decreased to a point where, in the words of a person who lived
here for eight, for eighteen years before, left for seven and
came back to look. for a home said, "there isn't a good
subdivision left in Kenai."
And, ah, that, with that in mind, we thought maybe we could
propose a subdivision type, or not a subdivision, but a zone that
a subdivision could use that would have high standards and
attract these types of residents.
In the zone itself, we put a single-family only dwellings. We
had a 15,000 square foot minimum lot, underwater, ah underground,
excuse me, utilities. Must be connected with city water and
sewer, ah, that have two accesses to subdivisions other than one
single road, for safety purposes for emergency vehicle purposes.
That type of thing. No flag lot ah, where a person has to go
along somebody else's driveway in order to get to theirs. That
they leave ah, a certain number of mature trees on the lot so it
isn't a clear-cut, situation where a person thinks they're going
to buy into a wooded subdivision and then have a neighbor or
developer cut all the trees out next door to them and they would
be left.
The point again was to make sure, that if a person bought in a
lot, a lot in a subdivision of this zone, they could be assured
that the quality of the subdivision would stay high. We have a
couple of fairly high quality ones now, I don't if this person
saw Inlet View or Inlet Woods subdivisions that are very nice

IN THE MATTER OF MICHAEL CHRISTIAN

PAGE 3
subdivisions. We are hoping that by this type of zone, we would
keep those types of subdivisions from deteriorating, like Redoubt
and Woodland have.
Background on the zone: We proposed these things. Ah, the
committee put it together. It took us a month to decide what we
wanted and that type of thing. We ah, we were involved in
another process and we heard from zoning and planning that since
there is no single-family dwelling, that they could not address
that. We went back and put that into this proposal. It was
brought up on March the twentieth meeting. There was a working
draft brought back from the city to the Planning & Zoning and
they had a work session. A one -hour work session on it and in
which case, they dropped half the things off the code without
voting on it or saying anything to it or at least, they never
addressed it. I had to assume things not discussed were still in
the vote, but I don't know if they looked at it that way, I don't
think it was in the coordinates that was proposed to you, or at
least the proposal.
They worked on it for, for an hour and ah, in the process of it,
of the work session, they ah came up with a new key in the zoning
and planning code. I don't know if you have this one here ah, in
this draft. The key had Principle Uses, Conditional Uses,
Secondary Uses, and the addition in this work session was, Non -
Permitted column, which was part of the item they voted on. It's
way over to the side, such as ah, let's see, where did that
start. Page 14-65, there we go.
Ah, the family dwelling, one -family dwellings and then the end
notation, for any other type, and other types of uses and
somewhere, some subdivisions, they're conditional uses, we have
"N's." This is something that was put on and voted on by the
Planning & Zoning. On the next page there are a number of,
you'll notice there that there were very few conditional uses.
I noticed, in going to a number of Planning & Zoning meetings, a
lot of their activity is on voting whether something should be a
conditional use or a variance of some sort or another. In this
proposed zone, we would eliminate that kind of argument, "well,
can they build this or can they have kennels, can they allow an
outbuilding," those kinds of things. If it's an "N," they could
not even be considered or bother the Planning & Zoning with that.
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
IN THE MATTER OF MICHAEL CHRISTIAN
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996

Ah, the biggest sticking point seemed to be the size of the lot.
Um, there was a lot of discussion back and forth that 15,000 was
too great. Ah, we see a lot of houses that have three garages,
very large sized, 2,500, 3,500 square foot homes. You put that
on a 7,000 square foot lot, which is the minimum that they
proposed, it doesn't leave much for land. But a 15,000 square
foot lot, you have room for mature trees to be allowed to have
the proper paved driveways, ah, you can make the house look like
it fits on the lot itself rather than this small lots that are
the 7,200 square foot, which is mostly standard with city water
and sewer.
So that was the main sticking point and apparently was the thing
that ah, after they voted for this zone, as it was, with the
revisions that they made themselves, ah, it was reconsidered and
ah, when we wouldn't consent to amendments to reduce the size
lots and allow lots with on -site sewer and water, ah, that's when
they decided to vote it down. We think the city of Kenai
deserves a zoning, a zone, building, residential zone, that will
attract this higher level building and ah, and high -quality
development. If there are any questions, I'd be glad to answer
any from that.
Williams: Thank you Mr. Christian. Questions for Mr. Christian
from council? I've got a couple I guess I'd like to ask, kind of
just to clear some things up in my mind.
This prime residential zoning that you're proposing, as I
originally understood, it was to overlie, or overlay a great deal
of existing property within the city. Is that correct?
Christian: No, ah, we um, it was suggested to me by Mr. La Shot,
that I put down possible places to use this zone and so I listed
a large number of them because he said it would, people would
give it more attention if I just listed areas and so I listed
areas that were surrounding existing subdivisions that have
quality, or close to this quality already -- paved streets and
underground utilities, and so on. Ah, I didn't have any place
particularly in mind. I thought that if, if anyplace it would
go, it would be near the subdivisions and so I listed those.
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING

Williams: Is, in your mind, is there any large tracts of land,
undeveloped at this point in time, within the city of Kenai that
might, in the future, be developed under these standards with the
proposed lost size that you're talking about?
Christian: I think that the Dena'ina Estates area would be
excellent for that; ah, the old site 36, Section 36 along the
bluff would be excellent; we have sections next to Inlet Woods,
on both sides that would be real good for that; ah, there's 136
acres between that Parsons parcel there and ah, Woodland, that
could very well be developed soon. I think that would be an
excellent place for it. There ah, there's a huge wooded area,
not sure, we have First, Second, Third Avenues where they end, I
don't know the name of that street. Ah, let's see, here's one
(looking at map) -- this area here ah, without this area here,
this area might, and also this area could be used. I think any
of those areas are, are, have an opportunity to be developed and
turn into some beautiful view lots. Not necessarily view lots,
but good lots and for the purpose.
Williams: I noticed there was some consideration given to the
economics of changing from the present minimum size lot, which I
agree, I think is too small (I believe it's 7,200 square feet),
to a larger lot. You must have had some review or some look at
the market itself to determine whether or not the present or
perhaps a future market, pretty hard to discuss future markets,
but a future market could bear the expense of the larger lot
without disrupting any potential growth in the area?
Christian: Not being a developer myself, or a realtor, I have my
views. We were, the size was a lot size that we left open for
discussion to the Planning & Zoning and the only proposal was the
72 or the 15 and they didn't have anything in between, so I
didn't think it was appropriate to go with a 72. A twelve -five
would be fine. Our, my particular lot is a 70 or a 97 and, and
we just have a small 1,000 square foot. That's, that's too small
a lot even for that house. I, I think that if a person wants to
develop in an area and build a beautiful home that's maybe 135 to
$165,000 home, they'd like a lot that's got some size to it to
give them some protection from neighbors. That's, that's why
mainly why we thought 15,000 or we could go down to twelve -five,
I don't think that that would be a problem. They, they weren't
willing to put that into their proposal.

Williams: Councilman Moore.
Moore: Mr. Mayor, may I quote from the minutes of Planning &
Zoning?
Williams: Yes, please.
Moore: I'd like to hear your comment on a, from the minutes of,
Mr. Walker...
Williams: Could you give us the page?
Moore: Yes, July 4, 1996, page 8... ah, July 24, 1996, page 8,
top paragraph.
Mr. Walker stated that when he reads this "Notice of
Meetings," it: reaffirmed in his belief that it is the
major intent of this proposed zone to restrict
development, not enhance development and perhaps more
than anything to stop development within certain
subdivisions of town.
Would you comment on that?
Christian: Well, ah, what he took was, he mentioned was a Notice
of Meetings was a letter written by somebody who was not a member
of the committee ZLnd was confused that our zone proposal here had
something to do with another project that I was working with that
had nothing to do with this zone and that was an area of
development that Gre felt was not conducive to that area, being
close to the airport and ah, they were going to put in very small
homes and very close to the airport, we thought that might be a
problem for the airport having development right there and later
on having to purcb.ase that property because of noise, airport
noise, that type of thing. The person wrote the letter, was not
with our committee: and confused those two together and many of
the people who spoke early on in this zone, had that same
confusion. I think that Mr. Walker took that letter and assumed
that our zone was also attempted, you know, just for that spot to
prevent development there and that's not true. We had no
intention of, I mentioned the numbers of places because mr. La
Shot thought this would help us push this down the road, so we
mentioned these areas (pointing to the map), that area, this area
(which is not developed yet), this area, this area. There were a
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
IN THE MATTER OF MICHAEL CHRISTIAN

PAGE 7
number of areas on the initial proposal and the Planning & Zoning
said that it was not going to help you having that on there so we
took it off the first day. That was Mr. Walker's opinion, but
that's not the intent.
Moore: Sure.
Williams: Thank you. Further questions from Council? I
understood you to say that they had not arrived at a decision as
to what would be appropriate for the size of the lot.
Christian: Well, they did propose an amendment to reduce it to
that 92 on the very last meeting -- not not 92, 72.
Williams: To 72?
Christian: Yeah.
Williams: And, see, that would defeat your purposes...
Christian: Yes, I assume there's no point in having the zone.
Williams: I noticed that one commission member did not want to
concede to the 8,000 in the testimony. It would seem to me that
it would be rather tough to determine whether an ordinance of
this type should be in place if, in fact, we can't decide on what
to really size the lots at, what size they should be. Again, as
I said earlier, I agree that 7,200 is a little small, although we
do have one subdivision here that goes into the 6,000 category
there. They're grandfathered in in an old HUD subdivision. Ah,
some of the lots there are 62, 6,500 square feet. An extremely
small. 7200 isn't much larger, ah, but again, I'm a little
mystified as to how one could deal with this situation without
some firm resolve as to what size we would call these lots for.
We would put them at.
Christian: Well, we started with 15,000 originally, if that was
a question and you wanted a response to it.
Williams: Yeah, and there was some thought that 20,000....
Christian: Well, 20,000 is what ah, is proposed on areas that
use on -site septic and water inside the city limits and if they
can have a 20,000 square foot lot for that purpose, we thought a
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING

15 with sewer and water, would be a good balance between the ten
versus 20, you know, a good place to start from assuming that we
would have some adjustment to the size within the Planning &
Zoning and the only adjustment that they brought in was this very
low number and we! said I don't know how many times, over and
over, we're willing to bring this down a little bit. 15 is not a
hard and fast number, but...
Williams: Were any proposals forthcoming from your group to the,
a hard and fast number, to the Planning...
Christian: I mentioned the twelve -five would be something we
could, we could live with I think without trouble.
Williams: And what was their response?
Christian: It was never brought formally or even responded to,
I'm afraid.
Williams: Questions? All right, is there anyone else, is there
anything further that you wanted to add to your, I don't want you
to think that we're taking this as a very light topic to be
dismissed because; as you are well aware, we do have a full packet
of information to study from...
Christian: I understand.
Williams: ...so if there's anything you wanted to say in...
Christian: No, that's
Williams: ...wrapping up. All right thank you Mr. Christian for
your presence here this evening.
Is there anyone else from the general public that wishes to be
heard regarding the matter of the appeal as filed by Mr.
Christian. All right, seeing no one else to be heard, I'll bring
it back to council for just a moment. Is there any discussion
from council? Councilwoman Swarner.
Swarner: I guess I have a question of the attorney. Are there
any zones, by ordinance now, ah Cary, that we do not actually
have in existence that are just on the books per se?

Graves: I can't, I can't think of any that are just on the
books. This would be the only one where we had a zone without
any actual land that it controls, that I'm aware of.
Williams: Councilman Moore.
Moore: And, to the attorney as well, one thing that it was
alluded to, I couldn't pin it down, but could a subdivision re-
zone itself as a prime residential zone and then affect
undeveloped land on its borders due to proximities or...
Graves: It, it shouldn't, if, if a subdivision rezoned itself,
it shouldn't really have an affect on adjoining property, as long
as that adjoining property wasn't rezoned.
Moore: Okay.
Graves: Was that what you were getting at...
Moore: Correct.
Graves: It shouldn't really have any effect.
Williams: All right. Any further discussion of council? All
right. As a board of appeals here, we are required within 30
days after this hearing to render a decision on the appeal. We
can of course, propose appropriate conditions and safeguards in
accordance with zoning ordinances relative to any matter in this
hearing. What we will do is we will confer now with the
administration. We'll discuss the matter and study the documents
that have been prepared both by the administration and
discussions by the groups through the Planning & Zoning
Commission and we will render that decision within the 30-day
time frame. Now, how the decision will be rendered is there will
be a decision, a written decision made and the council will then
review the written decision, after making some recommendations to
the administration and we will vote on that decision and then it
will be presented at the meeting within the 30-day period.
So ... or it will be available to the general public within 30
days, it may not be as a result of a meeting.
All right. Anything further with regard to this matter? All
right. I want to thank everybody that worked on this, especially

MOTION:
Councilman Bookey MOVED to approve the consent agenda as amended.
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
ITEM B: SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENT
Mayor Williams asked if there were any members of the audience
needing to speak with council who would not be able to wait until
the end of the meeting for citizens' unscheduled comments.
Tim Navarre - Navarre reported during the Borough Assembly
meeting on September 3, the Borough animal control ordinance was
reconsidered. The assembly members requested a draft ordinance
that would include compensation, costs, etc. Navarre added, the
ordinance would pz-obably be approved subject to voter approval.
He hoped a special election could be held so that the matter
would not have to wait until October, 1997. The ordinance had
been set for hearings during the October and November assembly
meetings. Action should be taken during the last meeting in
November.
Williams asked if Navarre would be attending the Coalition
meeting in the morning and if he (Williams) could not be in
attendance, would Navarre pass on the city's concerns in regard
to the seriousness of the need for a borough animal control
ordinance. Navarre stated he would.
Councilwoman Swarner asked how the hospital was proceeding and
when there would be a vote. Navarre reported Mayor Gilman was
chairing a task force in regard to the hospital and it would be
making a recommendation in the near future. If the task force
has not made a recommendation by the time Gilman's term has
ended, he will suggest a recommendation to the new mayor.
Navarre added, the task force's meeting focused on what direction
the hospital should go. From that, the committee will discuss
its options. The recommendation will not go to a vote of the
people, but will go to the mayor -elect.
Williams noted a meeting in regard to the hospital was set for
September 9 at 7:00 p.m.
Navarre referred to the Coalition meetings and stated there were
four cities of the borough that meet throughout the year in
different locations. The membership brings up items to discuss,
mainly of how the cities and borough can work together. Each
city hosts for one year. Navarre encouraged council members to
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 3
attend the meetings. Navarre stated they would like the City of
Kenai to name one of its elected officials as its tourism
representative to the Coalition. The objective is to get the
cruise ship passengers from Seward to visit the rest of the
Peninsula. They are looking for a way to benefit the whole
peninsula.
In regard to the animal ordinance, Navarre stated he had not
received any negative responses from those persons with which he
had discussed the ordinance.
Williams noted he had requested the Clerk to start a clipping
file of articles, letters to the editor, etc. in regard to the
animal control issue in the Borough.

There were no public comments. Kornelis noted he had with him a
copy of the engineer's estimate, along with a set of drawings
available for council review. Williams asked if Kornelis had
discussed with the engineer the use of the volunteer work
presented by Kelly Wolf a few meetings ago. Kornelis reported he
met with Wolf and the engineer. A large part of the planned
development is hauling the pilings and that work could not be
done by volunteers. Also, a lot of the project will be pre -
manufactured.
BREAK TAKEN TO REVIEW THE PLANS (7:48 P.M.)
BACK TO ORDER: 7:57 P.M.
Councilman Bookey asked Kornelis if he was comfortable with the
amount budgeted to move the concrete barriers from the storage
site into place. Bookey added, he was concerned not enough was
budgeted for that part of the project. Kornelis answered the
engineer had called people to get an amount. He agreed, the
budget was very tight. Bookey stated he thought it would take
twice the amount budgeted. Kornelis stated it would depend on
whether the person moving the barriers would have a crane. He
added, the amount was an estimate from the engineer (Nelson).
Originally, they had discussed not bringing the piling to the
beach, however Fish & Game stated they would not pay for any
piling not used on the project.
Bookey stated he didn't want to have to come back for more money
to complete the job. Only two pilings would be able to be moved
on a truck. Measles noted oversize permits would be needed also.
Bookey added, two cranes would be needed to move the pilings from
the trucks. It will be costly.
Kornelis noted the grant for only $100,000. If the amount is
low, they may have to discuss cutting back on the project.
Bookey asked what would Fish & Game say if they did cut back on
the project? He added, he supports the project, but was
concerned enough was not budgeted.
Measles stated there was no place to cut $30,000 from the budget
unless they cut the whole budget. Kornelis stated he thought it
good for council to be aware there could be an overrun and more
money may need to be put into the project. Kornelis referred to
an information item in regard to the parking lot Corps permit.
He reminded council no money was set aside for enlarging the
parking lot. If a Corps permit is received, they will have five
years in which to obtain funding for the enlargement.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996

Swarner asked from where the funding would come to pay the mover
of the pilings. Kornelis stated it would be part of the
competitive bid for the whole project. Swarner stated after the
bid process, they would know whether more funding would be
needed. Williams agreed, council could determine after the bid
opening whether they would want to spend additional money for the
project. Williams asked if there was a time constraint to accept
the grant.
Kornelis answered yes, he had to send the grant application in
tomorrow. He added, Fish & Game granted very few grants this
year because of the time constraints.
Councilman Moore questioned where the information was for
Appendix A of the grant application. Kornelis answered, the
information he handed out (estimate, etc.) would be included as
Appendix A. The city will have to up -front the money for the
project. Measles asked if the estimate was being sent as a line -
item for the project. Kornelis answered yes, the grantee
required a cost e::".timate. The line item costs would be included
with the grant, but no money would be received until after the
project is completed.
The discussion continued in regard to when the requirements of
Appendix A needed to be completed. Williams suggested council
review the budget again when the bid was completed. At that time
they could decide whether to cut the budget to complete the work.
If they decided not to continue with the project after the bid
information was received, they could send a letter and tell Fish
& Game the city decided not to continue with the project.
Bannock asked if, by accepting the grant, would it obligate the
city or put it in a bad light to Fish & Game. There would be
nothing to lose by accepting it? Attorney Graves answered if the
council decided not to continue with the project, a letter could
be sent stating the city couldn't complete the project. Bannock
stated he thought it would be wise to accept the grant. Bookey
stated he agreed, but wanted council to be aware of the pitfalls.
Acting City manager Ross asked how much the city would have
invested in the project if it was turned down. Kornelis answered
$5,000 for the encKineering. Ross asked, prior to the bids, would
that be added to the project in any way? Kornelis answered, if
it was, it would be very little. Kornelis referred to page 5 of
the mutual agreement which gave a 30 written notice escape clause
for either parties. Graves agreed.

C-6. Resolution No. 96-65 - Approving of Contract Amendment
No. 1 to the Scope of Work for the Airport Master Plan
to Include an Environmental Assessment for the Alaskan
Regional Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Training
Center (ARFF) at Kenai, Alaska, in the Amount of
$50,000 to Aires Consultants, ltd.
MOTION:
Councilman Measles MOVED for adoption of Resolution No. 96-65 and
Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Measles asked why they
were wanting to amend the contract in order to eliminate the need
to go out to bid as a separate project. Airport Manager Ernst
answered that when Aries presented their Working Paper No. 2 they
discussed the matter with FAA. Because of time constraints to do
the environmental work, they said it would be allowable by FAA to
add it to the original contract since Aries was a consulting firm
with expertise and had already bid for the ARFF project. He
added, Aries approached FAA and FAA approached him (Ernst).
Amending the contract would save six months' time. FAA was in
full agreement.
Measles asked if a separate bid would have to be done if they
would not amend the contract. Ernst answered yes.
Bookey asked Ernst how the $50,000 cost was agreed upon. Ernst
answered, originally he had asked firms for a cost for the work.
He talked with Aries and Northern Test Labs. He thought Northern
Test Labs had done environmental work on the University Fire
Training Center, but later found it was not environmental work
they had done. Aries had given him a cost and he forwarded that
amount to FAA. Ernst added, he was concerned with the $50,000
cost, but FAA stated they did not think it would be a problem.
Bookey asked if there was anything there. Ernst answered, the
scope of the project was not only environmental, but noise
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 9
concerns, etc. It is a required and up -front document for the
grant. Ernst added, he did not believe the cost would come near
the $50,000. It is a not -to -exceed figure.
Measles asked Attorney Graves if there was a way of doing this as
a separate agreement with Aries to eliminate the time delay but
separate from the Airport Master Plan project. Graves answered,
the problem would be that if it became a separate item, it would
require a separate bid and a separate contract. A way to handle
the concerns would be to include the concerns on the addendum.
Measles stated he didn't have a concern about the contract or to
give the contract to Aries. He stated it was a personal
preference not to .lump two irrelevant projects under one
contract.
Ernst explained the relevance would come in with doing the
environmental on the grass strip and float plane basin at the
same time. The same field work would be applicable to the
taxiway extension -- a lot of the work for the taxiway extension
would overlap.
Measles asked the original amount of the contract for the Master
Plan. Ernst answered $299,000.
VOTE:
Williams asked if there were any objections to UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
C-7. Resolution No. 96-66 - Accepting the donation of Cement
Piling from Cherrier-King.
MOTION:
Councilman Measles MOVED to approve Resolution No. 96-66 and
Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Moore stated his
concern in regard to the third "whereas" and who would pay the
appraiser to determine the value of the donation for the required
IRS form. Kornelis stated he believed Cherrier was having the
appraisal done and the cost would be borne by Cherrier. The City
was only acknowledging they would receive the donated property
(referring to Part IV of the form).
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 10
Councilman Moore asked what would happen to the pilings if the
city rejected the grant. Ross asked if council would be able to
hold off accepting the pilings if the bid came high and council
determined not to do the project. Bookey stated he thought there
had been a request from the donor that the pilings be moved by a
certain date. Kornelis answered he had not talked with Cherrier.
Mr. McCune reported the information to him during a Harbor
Commission meeting.
Bookey asked if the city accepted the donation, was there a place
to store the pilings. Graves stated that when the city signs the
resolution and tax form, the pilings would be the city's and
would be responsible for them.
Kornelis suggested the resolution be tabled until after the bid
opening or approve it with the acceptance of the contract.
Measles asked how soon the city would be ready to start the
project and placing the pilings so they would only need to be
moved one time. Kornelis answered, there would probably be a
one -month lag time before they would be able to place the grates.
The pilings could probably be placed right away. He added, it
would be the contractor's responsibility to move and place the
pilings. A surve,yor's line would be placed to know where the
pilings would need to be positioned. The price would be
determined by the contractor as to what type of equipment they
would use to move and place them.
Kornelis stated they would be ready to go to bid by the end of
the month. He would place a resolution in the packet for the
October 2 meeting.
NOTION:
Councilman Measles MOVED to table Resolution No. 96-66 until the
first meeting in October. Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion.

Alaska SFY98 Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Water
and Sewer Priority List for request for State of
Alaska, Department of Environmental Conservation
Municipal Matching Grant Program.
MOTION:
Councilman Measles MOVED for adoption of Resolution No. 96-68 and
Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Williams asked Kornelis if he
thought it wise to name Mommsen Subdivision on the list knowing
the condition of the :lines there and what would be needed to be
done there. Williams continued, the city inherited the
subdivision and lines more than 30 years ago and there were some
failings in the design of the system. He suggested Mommsen
Subdivision, if it was going to be identified by the project (on
the list), be scrutinized by council prior to starting it as a
project.
Kornelis stated the lines are very fragile, but was identified by
the Water/Sewer foreman because of the ongoing problems in that
system.
Measles asked if, for the purpose of the application, Mommsen
Subdivision could be deleted and show water/sewer improvements
without identifying sites. Kornelis answered, the grant required
a statement of exactly where the work would be done. The
application is very specific. Williams stated he was concerned
it would turn into a large project and use all the money received
for only that project.
Bookey stated he agreed with Williams and added, once that
project would be started, they would have to go through the whole
subdivision. William. suggested other lines could be identified
(Linwood and Tinker where the Habitat houses are to be built)
around the city where loops could be made and completed.
Kornelis stated there were four main line loops identified by the
Nelson study. Williams suggested leaving out Mommsen. Williams
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 12
asked how much it would cost and Kornelis answered $600,000.
Williams stated it would be doubtful if the city would receive
more than $600,000 anyway as there probably wouldn't be much
money received from the legislature this year.
MOTION TO AMEND:
Councilman Measles MOVED to amend Resolution No. 96-68 by
eliminating No. 3„ Mommsen Subdivision Water and Sewer Line
Improvements and moving Wastewater Treatment Plant Expansion to
Item 3. Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion. Councilman
Measles requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
Bannock stated he lives in Mommsen Subdivision and asked if he
should abstain from the vote. Williams stated no as he was
representing that area.

Councilman Moore reported a copy of the agenda and roll call of
the meeting was included in the packet. No members of the Board
were present. There was no meeting as there was no quorum. He

Williams stated he would send a letter to the Board regarding
their meeting attendance. Bookey stated he hoped the letter
would be strong as the Board has had less meetings than there
have been meetings. He added, their being an active board
would be acceptable, but if not, the Board should be dismissed.

and time in order to mobilize meetings.

Approved by consent agenda.
ITEM F:
None.
ITEM G: OLD BUSINESS
G-1. Discussion - Date for Introduction of Ordinance
Accepting the Comprehensive Plan.
Williams suggested the Comprehensive Plan Update be reviewed
during a work session prior to formal approval at a council
meeting. Smalley stated he agreed strongly and suggested
comments and amendments could be made at that time. It is a
document that is the :future of the city. Williams suggested
capital matching grant issues could be discussed at the same work
session.
A joint work session of council and the Planning & Zoning
Commission was scheduled for Monday, September 16, 1996 at 7:00

building was more on city property than first discussed during
the August 21 meeting. Also, included in the packet was a copy
of a memorandum from City Engineer La Shot regarding his first
contact with Garcia in 1982. Williams asked if Garcia had been

KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 16
William requested Garcia be advised in writing, and copies of the
survey and La Shot's memorandum be included with the letter.
Garcia should also be asked what action he would be taking in
regard to the building. Williams suggested giving Garcia ten
days in which to respond to the city.
Swarner stated she didn't think the city should ask him what his
plan would be or dive him ten days in which to respond. The city
should tell him what he needs to do. Williams stated he thought
it would be appropriate as a courtesy to a long-time city
resident, etc. to send a letter with the enclosed information
indicating the building was placed on city property and give him
ten days in which to respond as to his intentions. Ross asked if
the letter should be written by the city attorney. Council
agreed it should. Graves stated he would send the letter by
certified and regular mail.
ITEM H: NEW BUSINESS
H-1. Bills to be Paid, Bills to be Ratified
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED to pay the bills and Councilman Measles
SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. 80 ORDERED.
H-2. Purchase Orders Exceeding $2,500
MOTION:
Councilman Moore MOVED for approval of the purchase orders
exceeding $2,500 and Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion.
Williams referred to the earlier request to discuss Item H-8,
Approval of Inlet Woods Subdivision Lights at this time.
Councilman Moore referred to a memorandum from Kornelis which was
included in the packet. The memo noted Air Tek, the contractor,
submitted an updated proposal for placement of seven light poles
in Inlet Woods. The cost increased due to the manufacturer's
cost for the pole/fixture. $7,500 was budgeted for the work. An
additional $749 would be needed in order to cover the cost for
the placement of the seven light poles. Kornelis offered two
options: (1) pay the $749 from the $20,000 budgeted for other
new street lights or (2) reduce the number of street lights to be
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 17
placed in Inlet Woods to six which would reduce the cost to
$7,071 which would be within the budget.
Moore stated he didn't have a problem with either solution, if
Inlet Woods could still be covered well with only six lights. He
added, there had been a number of new homes built in the
subdivision, however. Kornelis stated the light bases were
already installed at intersections.
Kornelis noted that until the engineering is completed in regard
to the twenty-two additional new lights for other areas of the
city, he won't have an actual cost. When the proposal is
received, council could then decide if there will need to be
changes in the lights planned.
Measles suggested council proceed with the purchase of the seven
lights for Inlet Woods and take the additional $749 from the
$20,000 budgeted for the 22 lights. Measles asked when the bids
would be back for the 22 lights. Kornelis answered he didn't
know, but thought they should be received by council's next
meeting.
Council consensus was to proceed with the purchase order as it
was presented for seven lights in Inlet Woods, taking the
additional $749 from the $20,000 budget.
VOTE ON PURCHASE ORDERS EXCEEDING $2,500:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
H-3. Ordinance No. 1716-96 - Increasing Estimated Revenues

KENAI CITY COUNCIL, MEETING MINUTES

Kornelis explained. the Harbor Commission discussed a proposal for
grating and floats, to be placed in the middle of the river during
their last meeting. They decided not to place them in the middle
of the river due to the liability concerns. At that point the
purchase of the floats was dropped. However, the Dock Foreman,
Kornelis and Harbor Commission Chair discussed the matter further
and thought the floats could be used in other areas, i.e. where
the grid used to hie along the dock. Users could tie up
temporarily if needing to go up the ladder on the trestle as well
as a temporary position until getting to the end of the float.
Drawings were distributed to council to review. Kornelis noted
that when the tide: goes out there no longer is room on the
present floats. The three floats would be used in different
areas, but not in the middle of the river.
Kornelis added, he: would take the information to the Harbor
Commission on September 9 and then, from their discussions,
prepare a memorandum to add to the ordinance indicating the
Commission's recommendation.
Swarner asked how much money had been transferred from the
General Fund to the Dock Fund. Williams stated he thought there
was a fund balance: of $51,000 and nothing was taken from the
General Fund.
Williams suggested. Williams let the Harbor Commission review the
proposal and forward their recommendation to council in the next
meeting's packet.
VOTE ON INTRODUCTION:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
H-5. Discussion - Advertising/Hiring Process for New City
Manager.
Williams reminded council there was discussion at the August 21
meeting requesting this item be placed on this agenda. Williams
added, he believed there would be someone in Alaska qualified to
run the City of Kenai and he was uncomfortable with going through
a long search, advertising in the Lower 48 without first finding
out who is available in Alaska. He strongly urged council to
consider finding candidates within the state first.
Williams added, hiring a person from outside of Alaska requires a
great deal of training from council, mayor and administration to
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 19
introduce that person to the area and politics of Alaska. He
believed it would be better for the city to take a slow approach
and look at what is available within the state first.
Smalley noted that during the last search, out of 391 applicants
only one or two Alaska applicants were in the final selection.
Smalley added, he believed the job description should include the
applicant should have a background knowledge and information in
legislative affairs, personnel, ports and harbor operations,
airport operations, as well as budget and finance.
Williams added, because the city manager interacts with other
state agencies and local government people, the person chosen
needs to be aware of how government in Alaska works. Smalley
stated he was not arguing that, but thought other areas needed to
be remembered also.
Williams stated there were other items needing council's
attention as well: (1) Is one of council's directives to the
Acting City Manager to hire a Finance Director? He added, he
thought that should be resolved -- wait or direct Ross to handle
the hire. Ross stated. he didn't think that matter had to be
addressed at this meeting. He would want to wait until after the
audit is completed. When asked, Acting Finance Director Feltman
stated the audit would be completed soon.
Swarner stated she did not disagree that there may be a qualified
person in Alaska, but disagreed on waiting to advertise as she
wanted to begin in the near future. She noted the lead times to
place advertisements are sometimes 30 days. She suggested
advertisements be placed in the Anchorage Daily News, AML
Newsletter, Peninsula Clarion, and possibly the Seattle Times if
council wanted to advertise on the west coast.
Swarner added, she would not want to wait too long and in doing
so, exclude people like Mr. Day, who may not be available in six
months. Also, she did not think it fair to the Acting City
Manager, employees, or residents of the city to wait.
Williams stated he thought the residents want the council to do
what is right. He also thought council should discuss what
salary would be offered, etc. to the new city manager. Swarner
stated she didn't disagree, but wanted to set a date to start
advertising, etc. Council could discuss what to offer the new
city manager during the advertising period.
KENAI CITY COUNCII, MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 20
Bookey stated he would want to do something, but wasn't sure if
he wanted to speed the process up as suggested by Swarner. He
wouldn't want to make a mistake, but would want someone to be
hired by February or March.
Williams added council would also need to discuss contracts. He
would not want to have a contract with a financial escape clause
and was not sure if a contract needed to be offered. The Charter
handles the hire and release of city managers. He added, he did
not want a new city manager to come in and take advantage of the
system.
Swarner recommended beginning advertising November 1 with an
application deadline of November 30. Smalley suggested it should
be a 45-day period. Swarner added, the job description in the
advertisement could be like the one used the last time.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Swarner MOVED to set the advertisement for a new
city manager to begin on November 1 and the application deadline
on December 15, 19,96. Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion.
Measles stated the: advertisement wouldn't discuss a contract or
salary. That information wouldn't have to be decided on until
December 15. Due to these concerns, council discussed holding a
work session to review the scope of the search, salary, etc. A
work session was scheduled for October 14, 1996 at 7:00 p.m. in
the council chambers.
VOTE ON MOTION FOR. ADVERTISING, ETC.:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
Bannock stated he wholeheartedly agreed their search should be
concentrated in Alaska. If a person is really interested in
working in Alaska, they would perhaps be receiving Alaska
publications already.
Councilman Smalley MOVED to advertise for the city manager in
Alaska Journal of Commerce, Anchorage Daily News, ICMA
Newsletter, AML Newsletter, Peninsula Clarion. Councilman
Bannock SECONDED.

Smalley stated he selected those publications because persons in
other states could be subscribing to them because they are
looking for a job in Alaska.
VOTE:
There were no objections. 80 ORDERED.
Council discussed the updating of the information letter which
was forwarded to those requesting additional information during
the last search. Ross stated the letter could be revised for the
October work session. Other criteria could also be available for
council to review at the work session in regard to the selection
process. Smalley suggested everything from the last selection
process be brought to the work session for review.
Moore asked if the information would be forwarded to council for
review prior to October 1. Ross answered yes.
H-6. Approval - Assignment of and Amendment to Lease and
Security Assignment of Lease - Steven Karakash to North
Star Radiant., Inc. and Fred Seton.
NOTION:

H-7. Discussion - Passing of Eugene Morin (Kenai Mayor 1968-
1971), Letter to His Wife, and a Recommendation for
Tree and Plaque for Him in Leif Hansen Memorial Park.
Williams reported he received a telephone call last week
informing him of Mr. Morin's death. Williams added, he had been
a friend of his for many years and he had worked with Morin's
wife, as well as his being a former mayor of the city. Williams
proposed council purchase a tree and plaque to be placed at
Memorial Park in memory of Gene Morin.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES

PAGE 22
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for council to purchase a tree and
plaque to be placed at Memorial Park in memory of Gene Morin.
Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion. Smalley requested
UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
Swarner stated her concern this would set a precedent. She was
aware the council purchased two trees and plaques in memory of
air crash victims and the tree would beautify the park, but felt
uncomfortable placing such an item on the agenda prior to
discussing it with council. Swarner asked if this would be
something they would do for all former mayors.
Williams noted Morin was unique as he ran as a write-in candidate
and won the election. Bannock stated he had no objections.
Clerk Freas noted the cost of a tree and plaque and shrubs and
plaque. She also asked if council would want the city logo to be
included on the plaque. Answer was yes.
VOTE:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
Williams was asked to change the draft letter to include the
information regarding the tree and plaque. The kind of tree to
plant was discussed. Council chose a spruce tree.
Council discussed problems with dead trees that were in the park
and whether it was the city's responsibility to remove or replace
them. Swarner stated owners of the dead trees had been notified.
Williams suggested equipment should be added to trees to protect
the trunks, etc.

larger, more suitable space in another building in Kenai.
Williams reminded council they budgeted $5,000 to hire a
facilitator to collect information, document the need, etc. to
present to the State. Williams requested council allow the study
to proceed.
Measles stated they had discussed the matter for some time and
thought it was time to proceed. Williams stated he had discussed
a meeting with the head nurse and Kathy Scott. Williams asked if
council had any objections to using the $5,000 for this purpose.
There were no objections.
I-2. City Manager
Acting City Manager Ross stated he was happy to be on -board as
the acting city manager and looked forward to the challenge.
I-3. Attorney
Councilman Smalley noted he had seen a person on motorcycle
traveling on the new bike path. He suggested council review the
off -road vehicle ordinance and amend it to.be more strict in
order to keep the motor vehicles off the bike paths. This would
include use of snow machines on the paths as well.
Swarner noted the State had placed "no motor vehicle" signs along
the bike path toward Soldotna, but not in the downtown area. She
added, she would like motor vehicles users to be cited and the
vehicles impounded.
Williams suggested the ordinance be published two times a week
for eight weeks in order to better inform the public. Attorney
Graves stated snow machines are off -road vehicles and if they use
only the right-of-way, they would still be on improved areas and
would be violating the ordinance.
Discussion followed regarding amending the off -road vehicle
ordinance. Council reviewed the information included in the
packet from Attorney Graves. Williams suggested the ordinance
include impoundment. Graves stated the Anchorage ordinance
provides "subject to impoundment, if there is no reasonable
alternative." He added, if vehicles are confiscated, there would
be a different type of hearing required.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 4, 1996
PAGE 24
Smalley stated he supported the impoundment, but space would be
needed to hold impounded vehicles. Graves suggested an
alternative by setting a high minimum penalty. Ross explained
the Anchorage ordinance provides an automatic out for
impoundment. The courts see impoundment as a taking without due
process. He suggested council take Graves' advice in regard to
the Anchorage ordinance or set a mandatory minimum fine. He felt
that would be a better deterrent without the impoundment.
Williams asked if the fine could be over $500. Graves stated if
it was, the court might look at it as a big problem and set a
trial. He suggested the fine could be set as a mandatory $500.
Measles asked if a minimum fine or restitution, whichever is
greater could be :yet. Graves answered he could review a
provision of a mandatory fine and restitution to the city for
repair of damages -- an "and/or" situation. Smalley asked if the
city could enforce restitution if the infraction would be on
state right-of-way. Graves answered, restitution might have to
be funneled through the state for the repairs. He added, he
believed if the city worked with the state, they would be happy
to work with the city.
Smalley stated he wouldn't want the city to take on the
responsibility of restitution of state property. Measles
suggested the city ordinance should be amended to include a
minimum fine. Graves stated he would like that option because of
differences in offenses.
Councilman Bannock stated he thought the use of snowmachines in
unimproved rights--of-way, were not necessarily bad. He was aware
of persons working within the city who travel to work in the
winter on snowmachines. Smalley stated he believed the city had
progressed to the point that it needed an ordinance more
appropriate for the time. The city has a five -lane highway
through it now. The volume of traffic has increased
tremendously. There are other alternatives in regard to where
people can use snowmachines.
Consensus of council was to have Graves amend the ordinance,
including the minimum fine, but with a strong message.
I-4. City Clerk
Clerk Freas referred to the information included in the packet

who cares about Kenai. He questioned whether the city manager
had to have the highest salary of all the employees.
Peters also questioned the earlier discussion in regard to the
finance directo rposition and stated the city already had someone
working as the finance director. He asked, couldn't Ms. Feltman
be hired for the position.
J-2. Council
Bookey - Welcomed Ross as the acting city manager.
Swarner - welcomed Ross also and thanked Graves for the off -
road vehicle information.
Moore - Welcomed Ross.
Measles - Welcomed Ross.
Bannock - Welcomed Ross and noted the Industry Appreciation
Picnic was very successful at the ballpark greenstrip park. He
added, the picnic's success lent credibility to the Parks &
Recreation Commission's decision that activities of that sort and
size belong at that park. He noted also, the picnic also
proceeded and was successful in coordination with a softball
tournament that included 21 teams.
Smalley - Welcomed Ross and agreed with Bannock's comments
about the success of the picnic and that the greenstrip park was
the appropriate place for the picnic. Smalley asked Kornelis if
there was a way to barricade the property between Carrs and the
Dairy Queen in order to keep vehicles from driving through or
parking in that area. Kornelis suggested he could request a post
be placed by DOT. Bookey stated it was private property between
the lots and that a new building may be going in there in the
near future which would eliminate the problem.
Williams - Welcomed Ross.

Kenai, AK 99611
Dear Mayor Williams and Council Members:
RECEIVED
$EP 16 1996
KENAI CITY CLERK'
Thank you for inviting this professional services contract. The issue
of the relocation of the Public Health Service is an interesting and
challenging project and I look forward to working together on it.
This agreement is similar to our other working arrangement. The
hourly rate is higher because the project is short term and the
deadline urgent. To complete this work will require the use of
associates on other projects, thereby increasing the expense.
Ultimately, however, the City will be contracting for a not -to -exceed
expense of $ 5,000 including the noted expenses.
Please feel free to call me at my office to answer questions you may
have about the contract. I plan to be available at the council meeting
to respond to any, questions and hear your comments. Thank you
again for considering my firm for your independent consulting needs.
Sincerely,
Kathleen F. Scott
President

TO: Mayor John Williams and Kenai City Council
FROM:C- 0 Cary R. Graves, City Attorney
DATE: September 13, 1996
RE: Bike Path Ordinance
I drafted the attached ordinance, imposing a minimum fine of $100 for unlawful operation of an off -road
vehicle on the new bike paths and improved rights -of -way. As you can see, I applied the new language
to sections (c) and (d) only. You may want to consider whether the fine should apply to the entire
section KMC 13.40.020. (Copy attached.)
Also, if the $100 fine seems too low to you, you may want to change the amount.
Let me know if you need further information.

THROUGH:
Rick Ross, Acting City Manager
FROM:
Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director(�'7
DATE:
September 18, 1996
SUBJECT:
FAA Cleanup of EOF Land (Antenna Farm)
FOR:
Council meeting of 9/18/96
Rachel Clark, Bob Springer, Steven Ramberg and I went through the FAA
building located at the antenna farm with Edgar Anderson of FAA. Below is
a list:
20. This is the main building of the Emergency Operators Facility, EOF. It
was the old shop building and is approximately 30' x 60'. It is an old
Buttler type building. It has a concrete floor, is sheet rocked inside and
was added on -to in different areas. It is the site of the "War Room." It
would be very hard to move.
210. This is a very small storage building on skids. It is used for petroleum
storage and only around 8' x 12'.
300. This is their present shop building. It is around 30' x 40' and has a
concrete floor. }
417. This building was part of the FAA National Defense Emergency
Readiness program. I think this was a FAA and Air Force joint program.
It is a double wide trailer on wood foundation. It is around 24' x 40'.
They had a problem with the roof caving in from the snow load a few
years back so it leaks a little. It needs some patch work but could be
used as an office. I guess the Coast Guard Auxiliary has been using it
for a meeting place.
600. This is the generator building. It is around 20' x 36', has metal siding
and a concrete floor. A very nice 20KW generator is located in this
building that only has 326 hours on it.
Page 2
FAA (Antenna Farm)
9/18/96
Public Works looked at the buildings and discussed their condition and how
they could be moved. We feel only two buildings would be advantageous
to the city's use. These buildings and our rough cost estimate to move
them are listed below:
Number Building
300 Shop
417 Double Wide Trailer
Cost to Move Concrete Total
$ 8, 000 $ 6, 000 $14, 000

Public Works recommends that we do NOT accept receipt of any

also recommend an environmental assessment be performed on this

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: RICHARD A ROSS. ACTING CITY MANAGER
KEITH KORNELIS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
FROM: RACHEL CLARK, ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN 9C
SUBJECT: FAA EOF FUEL TANKS
DATE: SEPTEMBER 12, 1996
As you requested, I have researched potential use of the fuel tanks at the FAA Emergency
Operations Facility (EOF).
Summary
The potential for subsurface and/or groundwater contamination from either of these fuel tanks is
high. If the Emergency Generator Building will not be retained, I recommend that the City
request removal of both tanks prior to acquiring this property. If the City wishes to retain the
Emergency Generator Building, I recommend that a system test or site assessment be done to
verify the integrity of the active tank prior to acquiring this property.
Facility
The FAA Emergency Operations Facility Quarters Site contains six buildings with two
associated underground storage tanks (DST's). I have attached a map of the site for your use.
An inactive 500-gallon heating oil UST is located north of the EOF Building. The inactive tank
has no current beneficial use. No records exist for the tank at ADEC, and it is not likely release
detection devices have been installed.
An active 500-gallon diesel UST is located north of the Engine Generator Building. The active
UST is used to fuel the emergency generator in the event that electrical power is lost for the
facility. If the City intends to keep the emergency generator and operate it as such, the active tank
has potential beneficial use:. ADEC records reveal that release detection has not been installed.
Environmental Data
Little environmental data is available for the inactive UST. However, downgradient samples
collected in 1993 show extensive soil contamination.

In neither case was groundwater examined.
Conclusion
Based on the environmental information available at this time, it is likely that contamination
exists at both tanks. If the City acquires the property with the tanks intact, we could assume
partial liability for their removal and cleanup.
If the City will not retain the Emergency Generator Building, I recommend that both tanks be
removed and a site assessment, with associated excavation and remediation be completed. If the
City will retain the Emergency Generator Building, I recommend that the inactive tank be
removed and a system test or site assessment be completed on the active tank.
I am aware that Mayor Williams was attempting to obtain Federal funds to clean up the entire
site. If he is able to acquire such funds, this above described work would appropriately be done
as part of an entire site cleanup.

The FAA is in i.-he planning stage concerning cleanup of the
EOF land.
In order to complete our planning we need to know whether
the City will want to use any of the buildings as they are
with existing fuel tanks or does the City want FAA to remove
all buildings and associated facilities.
Not knowing which buildings FAA may need and wish to remove
to another site, we would appreciate the City providing
information what buildings the City could use if FAA was to
leave them on site.
Please provide this information by 9/27/96 so that we
continue our planning.

l #4--..
Both driveways (entrance and exit) accessing the front parking lot
!i• from Swires Road are dark and currently unlit. A street light at
each of these spots would adequately illuminate the road surfaces
and immediate area thereby enhancing safety. Many children walk
to the school via Swires Road and walk in to/across the front
parking lot via the first access (entrance) to the school building,
at the same morning time as arriving school bus traffic and
parents' vehicles.
Kenai Central High School
Many students walk to KCHS via Lawton Drive. Lawton Drive between
Tinker Lane/Rogers Road is very dark; illumination in that area is
via lighting at Lawton/Wooded Glen and the high school parking lot.
jlA street light on Lawton between Tinker & Wooded Glen would
illuminate that dark stretch between these two intersections.
other street light on Lawton between the rear parking lot of KCHS
ALA and the Ag Shop Building would enhance the safety of those students
crossing Lawton during the morning hours to/from Shop classes.
lip Sears Elementary
Many children walk to Sears Elementary from Woodland Subdivision,
neccessarily crossing the narrow and heavily -traveled N. Forest
Drive.
A street light at the intersection of 5th Ave/N. Forest and another
7l(J� light on N. Forest Drive near the north access to the Mormon Church
would illuminate those dark and currently unlit areas.
Also, no lights illuminate the intersection of N. Forest/Redoubt
Ave.
NOTE: No lighting needs were observed at Kenai Middle School or
Kenai Alternative High School.
These observations were made during the dark hours of 1-12-96.

RE: PARENT SUPPORT PROGRAM
Kenai Health Center
At their regular meeting; of September 18, 1996, the Kenai City Council discussed the
Parent Support Program offered through the Kenai Health Center. This letter is to
support the continuation of the Healthy Families Program, known as the Parent Support
Program through the Kenai Public Health Center. The pilot program, currently funded
by a rural health grant, has become well -established and provides valuable service to the
Central Kenai Peninsula. The fact that it is integrated with public health nursing services
heightens its acceptability, enhances a broad -based approach, and utilizes the extensive
human services network: operating between public health and other agencies.
Moving the program to another service agency would disrupt the current administrative
support, reduce public health nursing integration, and would raise the issue of ability to
recruit and retain highly qualified staff. Continuing integration with public health
nursing maintains efficient, competent and relatively "seamless" service for families.
It is recommended that all avenues be explored to maintain funding for the program and
to retain administration by public health nurses at the Kenai Public Helath Center.

KENAI CITY CLERK
Thank you for your letter of August 6 concerning traffic issues on the Kenai
Peninsula. Reconstructing the Seward Highway at the Hope Cutoff is a major
project and a special challenge to build while maintaining traffic. Yet,
maintaining traffic is; one of our main goals. It is good to hear that there is
minimal interruption and inconvenience to the traveling public. I will pass
your letter on to Kiewitt Pacific Co., the general contractor for the project.
The signing presently in place for the "City of Kenai" is in conformance with
our standards for destination signing. However, there is a project in the
Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan (STIP) to revisit our standards
and upgrade all destination signing in the state, but this project is a few
years off. In the interim some steps can be taken to improve the destination
signing along the Seward/Sterling Highways.
First of all, I will have the "Hospital" sign removed and properly relocated.
Secondly, I will have the brush cleared where signs are obscured, and third,
I will instruct our design section to add the words "City of Kenai" to all new
destination signs planned for future projects, in particular, the upcoming
Sterling Highway project at the Y. The use of the words "City of" is
acceptable in this case because of the confusion experienced by tourists
between the "City of Kenai" and the "Kenai Peninsula".
In Alaska all state highways are named by statute. Therefore, name changes
require legislative approval. Please contact your local legislators with regard
to renaming Kenai Spur Highway.
If you need further information or have any questions please call our
Regional Director, John Horn, in Anchorage at 266-1440.

PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, the United States of America cherishes its basic tenets:
freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Inherent to all three is the
right to vote; and,
WHEREAS, for many Americans, however, earning the right to vote has
been a costly process, fraught with hardship, and thus this cherished "right"
must not be taken for granted; and,
WHEREAS, 1996 marks the 25th anniversary of changing the age at
which a citizen may vote from 21 to 18 years of age. Still, those individuals
between the ages of 18 and 24 exercise their right to vote at approximately
one-half the rate of the rest of all other registered voters. Individually, none
of us can hope to change that statistic, yet with a highly cooperative,
coordinated, and concerted effort, we can collectively address this apathy and
work to overcome it.
WHEREAS, Governor Tony Knowles, in conjunction with Lieutenant
Governor Fran Ulmer have joined the nationwide, nonpartisan effort to
involve students, state and local youth organizations, universities, colleges and
elected officials in declaring October 2, 1996 as Student Voter Education Day
in Alaska to "encourage young people to get involved in the democratic
process at the very basic, grassroots level."
NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOHN J. WILLIAMS, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF
KENAI, ALASKA, declare October 2, 1996 as
STUDENT VOTER EDUCATION DAY
in the City of Kenai and urge all Alaskan youths to participate in and support
activism rather than apathy in their lives, on their campuses, with their friends,
and in the workplace..
DATED: This second day of October, 1996.

Dear Mayor Vflii�ms:
October 2, 1996 is National Student Voter Education Day. On that day, students on
university campuses and in high schools across the nation will take part in voter
registration drives, candidate forums, debates, and community service activities designed
to encourage participation in the public process. On September 4, 1996, Governor
Knowles and I will declare October 2 Student Voter Education Day here in Alaska with
the enclosed proclamation, and I am asking you to do the same. Alaskan student leaders
are already preparing their campuses and high school classrooms for this event. Our
support of their efforts is crucial.
In the spirit of National Student Voter Education Day, I am challenging all elected
officials to invest one hour during the week of September 30-October 4 in a classroom
visit -- elementary, high school, or college -- and to speak with students about the
importance of voting. While I understand what busy schedules we all have, strengthening
civic responsibility and increasing voter participation is one of the most important
challenges we face. The responsible citizens of tomorrow are sitting in our classrooms
today, and they reed to hear your voice. An hour .will make a difference.
I have communicated with superintendents and chancellors to make them aware of this
opportunity to inspire citizenship and have asked them to make every effort to cooperate
with you in arranging your classroom visit. Thank you, and should you have any
questions, please call Glenda Carino in my office at 465-3521.

KENAI CITY CLERK
The Kenai River Special Management Area (KRSMA) Advisory Board would
like to add the following recommendation to the comments that the
Board submitted in our August 12, 1996, letter on Special Public
Notice 96-05, Nationwide Permit (NWP) Reissuance (copy enclosed). The
State of Alaska, in cooperation with the Kenai Peninsula Borough,
cities of Kenai and Soldotna, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and
the U.S. Forest Service, is developing a management plan for the Kenai
River drainage. Thais plan is being developed with extensive public
involvement and will include enforceable land use policies designed to
avoid or mitigate impacts to important fish and wildlife populations
and habitats. The plan is scheduled for adoption as state regulation
in 1997.
The Board recommends that a regional condition be added to each NWP
that requires all Corps regulated projects be consistent with the
adopted KRSMA management plan. The KRSMA management plan stipulations
should be the basis for the Corps 401,404, and Corps NWP program in
the Kenai River draInage. Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
Sincerely,
AtJWa&(h,,L
