To Mayor Williams and Honorable Council Members:
Kenai Peninsula
United Way
BENCO BLDG. Ste. # 101
11355 Frontage Road
Kenai, Alaska 99611
Phone: (907) 283-9500
Fax: (907) 283-8000
On behalf of the Kenai Peninsula United Way, I would like to ask the City of
Kenai's support for the 1996 Campaign by continuing last year's employee
incentive / matching grant program.
Providing an incentive for city employees to give is not only good for our
community, but good for our economy as well: Last year alone, United Way
member agencies located within the municipality were awarded $136,827 (a
48% increase over the previous campaign year). Kenai Senior Services alone
received a total award of $22,461. A full listing of our 26 member agencies by
municipality is enclosed for your review.
It is because I believe that United Way and the City of Kenai both have the same
mission, that is to make Kenai a better place to live, that I feel this employee
incentive program is so vital. In the 1994 campaign, $0.00 was pledged to
United Way from city employees. Last year, with the support of the employee
incentive / matching grant program, employee pledges increased to $1,625.
I would like to request that the city council continue it's program for the 1996
campaign, where employee pledges are matched at .50 cents on the dollar, up
to a total grant of $2,000. By doing so, city dollars will not only be used to help
support local agencies, but also act as an incentive for city employees to do the
same.
I thank you for your consideration and the opportunity to bring this issue before
the Council on November 13th.
Sincerely,
Lynne Johnson
Executive Director

Dear Sirs,
I would like to bring to your attention tonight, the matter of snow removal from the
streets within the limits of the city of Kenai.
The Penisula Clarion published the following on November 8, 1996.
"Section 13.30.065. it shall be a violation for any person to deposit or cause to be
deposited any snow or ice against a fire hydrant or on any sidewalk, roadway, or any loading
or unloading areas of the public transportation system."
If this is too be read as written, then it should also be a violation for the workers of
the public works department to deposit snow into our driveways.
The graders have been adapted to prevent such an occurance, with blades called
"gates", and we as concerned citizens would like to know why they are not always used,
causing the home owner or occupant to have to clear the driveways themselves. On several
ocasions, we have cleared our own driveway, only to have the city workers come by and
redeposit the snow into a burm at the end of our driveway.
Now if we take said snow, and redeposit it into the street, we will be in violation of
section 13.30.065, and will be fined accordingly.
We called a city council memeber regarding the problem, and we were refered to Mr
Keith Cornelious, the head ofpublic works. He told us that a man named Jack was the man
that we needed to talk to.
We were told that the graders had gates on them, but that the heavy snow
sometimes makes it difficult for the workers to operate the gates. In our opinion, if the heavy
snow is in fact a problem, then we fail to see how it would be easier later after more weight
has build up in the ends of our driveways. It stands to reason that it would in fact be easier
for them to use the gates in the first place, rather then have to return later.
There are senior citizens, and people who have physical problems, that can not
remove this snow themselves. so in general have to rely on others to remove this for them.
Some hire a neighborhood child to do so, only to have the city come back and redeposit the
snow, again leaving them stuck.
It is our opinion that the city workers should be taught how to use the gates properly,
to avoid this problem in the future.

Minutes October 23, 1996
McLane, surveyor, stated the offset is parallel to the house structure rather than
perpendicular to the street to maintain the 15 feet offset. McLane commented if the
structure residence qualifies for a 10 foot setback, he would like the ability to arrange
that with staff. McLane noted it is a split level house with a basement rather than a
true two story. McLane added he is not sure of code. McLane stated that would allow
more space between property and the church property.
La Shot stated staff can take a look and if it qualifies for setback staff would not be
opposed to the change.

6. PUBLIC HEARINGS:
a. PZ96-66—Resolution of the Planning and Zoning Commission supporting
amending the Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.220 to establish signage requirements
within the Townsite Historic District Zone
MAHURIN MOVED TO APPROVE PZ96-66. BRYSON SECONDED THE
MOTION.
PUBLIC HEARING OPENED:
Michael Huhndorf, member of Townsite Historic District Board (TSH), commented that
the board had discussed the special nature and flavor of a historic district due to it's
visibility. Huhndorf stated the district as it sits because of it's location and trying to
create a consistency in appearance of signs as the board has stated and discussed be
changed to reflect the flavor of the historic district.
Huhndorf noted that they did realize that the comments were taken by the city attorney
regarding content and restricting the rights to freedom of speech.
PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED.
Mahurin noted this has been a long-standing project from TSH. Mahurin stated that
she believes that with the diminished size of Old Town that it is important that we do
have a district flavor to that area. Mahurin added there is a lot of development going
on. Mahurin stated she will support this resolution adding she appreciates the work of
the TSH and think the Commission should support their efforts.

Minutes October 23, 1996
Goecke apologized and asked indulgence noting he didn't get packet until today.
Goecke commented we have gone over and over this sign code in the city and stated he
is not totally convinced that we need to have one more sign code in this city. Goecke
commented he doesn't necessary like the one we have much less add another one.
Goecke noted being a business person you cannot actually have too much signage.
Goecke agreed it can be over done in some instances adding he has voted against some
signs. But, don't think that we need to have an inclusive sign code for the a given area.
Goecke stated he feels that our sign code as we have it is sufficient for our city.
Bryson commenting regarding Section 14.22.20 F(1) which describes intent of the
ordinance. Bryson read, "It is intended that the sign..." asking who is going to interpret
the phrase adding he didn't think he could. Bryson stated he feels that is an arbitrary
area that should be clarified. Bryson stated his other comment is the exclusion of
electric signs. Bryson noted that in the wintertime when people need business in that
area presumably signs would only be visible for six hours of a day.
Mahurin stated she knows that TSH has also talked about street lighting and with the
projects going on to pave and widening of the road, there are a lot of things board is
working on and talking about. Mahurin stated she agrees and doesn't think there
should be electric signs. Mahurin noted that the Russians didn't have signs and that is
all that is left of that era. Mahurin, noting she doesn't want to disagree with Mr.
Bryson, but F1 is an intent as to why they feel there should be a special sign code for
that area. Mahurin agreed that it is rather nebulous adding she felt a building
inspector could help with that. Mahurin noted this is their statement of why they want
a special sign code for that area. Mahurin stated she agrees with all these portions.
Mahurin noted it doesn't say there can't be lights but says there will not be garish
lights in that part of town. Mahurm stated that is what the ordinance is intended to do.
Werner-Quade concur with Ms. Mahurin's comments adding she thought the same
thing on the electric signs. Werner-Quade stated this brings to mind law offices of
Cowan adding she thinks they may have lights that shine from the rafters that shine on
the signs at night. Werner-Quade stated she feels this is in keeping with what the TSH
has in mind. Werner-Quade commented she was pleased to see this come before us
expeditiously rather than waiting to review the entire sign ordinance. Werner-Quade
noted she will vote in favor of this resolution.
Bryson questioned staff if there is a portion of the sign code that addresses electric signs
and differentiates from lighted signs?
La Shot stated he doesn't believe it does. La Shot stated this was intended to not allow
electric signs but to allow indirectly lighted signs of a smaller nature. La Shot stated
the first paragraph on intent that there is not too much administration can do about
that when issuing a permit. La Shot stated it does say in relation to size. The
ordinance was tailored to try to have something definitive that administration could use
when it came time to issue a sign permit and keep it as simple as possible while
reflecting the needs of the zone.

Minutes October 23, 1996
Goecke noted that didn't answer his question. Goecke commented that even with this
there is no distinct one sign other than flashing signs and any electric signs that will be
permitted. Goecke stated that the intent "thing" seems to leave everything in the open
to a particular individual's interpretation. Goecke commented you can interpret it one
way and I'll read it and interpret it another way and who's to say who is right.
Werner-Quade commented that the last line after the comma says, "and be of a size
that is in scale with the building and street scape as a whole." Werner-Quade
commented that it does leave a little bit to be desired adding she is getting tired of
these people who cannot interpret the simple, basic, plain English. Werner-Quade
commented that if a problem arose, it would seem like those people would go before the
TSH board and the Board would make a ruling as to the sign. Werner-Quade added
that in her opinion you can find a loop hole anywhere you want but lets get down to
plain English and read it and go with it.
Bryson stated he would have to respond to that. Bryson stated if it were an issue with
the building code and the city building inspector interprets it one way and you interpret
it another way, do you feel you have a valid concern when it is ruled against you.
Werner-Quade stated you can always go to a higher board adding she doesn't see why
we have to specify every detail. Werner-Quade noted she doesn't see where the intent is
that loose.
Goecke stated he has to ask a question, Werner-Quade made mention if you want to put
a sign there go to the Historic Board and see if this is okay. Goecke stated he doesn't
know if the Board has any control of the matter.
Werner-Quade stated she would correct that statement because she had said if there
was a problem. Werner-Quade commented that Goecke is saying that there is going to
be a problem with every sign. Goecke responded that he didn't say that but there is the
possibility of that problem existing.
Mahurin suggested in order to expedite this professionally, she would suggest that Ms.
Werner-Quade's intent of her comments, were that if someone had a question that the
TSH could interpret what their sign ordinance meant for anyone and would be
available as a resource to people to answer those types of questions. Werner-Quade
thanked Ms. Mahurin adding she was sure she had came across as curt.
Glick clarified that if there was a problem you are saying that the TSH board would
make a recommendation to P&Z. Werner-Quade noting she is not on the board so
would not have every answer but would wanted to rebut the two comments made by
two members about the verbiage being vague.
Mahurin would like to bring this item back to the ordinance instead of trying to
interpret each other questions but what the Commission is trying to do. Mahurin noted
Planning & Zoning Commission
Minutes

that what is before the Commission is an ordinance for a signage ordinance for Old
Town. Mahurin stated she would like to call for question.

7. NEW BUSINESS:
a. Review of Title 14 of the Mahurin—Cabins
Nord not sure what council is trying to get at but think they want us to make a
determination on what definitions for cabin and cabin rentals. Nord added she is not
sure if they want us to put limitations on size.
Glick think this came about because of three cabins on lot and man wanted to rent
them out. Councilman Smalley noted that was on James Street.
Nord noted that was before she came to P&Z.
Glick at this point we are to look at it, discuss it, and decide if there needs to be
changes. Glick asked La Shot if staff had input.
La Shot noted it has been a problem in the past. Because there is not a definition in
code as to what a cabin is. The Land Use Table has a designation for cabins but we're
not sure if an accessory structure or a principal structure. La Shot stated that from the
administration's standpoint it needs to be cleaned up. La Shot added that there is a
growing use of cabins in the city for not only recreational/commercial use but there are
times people want to add to property as a secondary or accessory use.
Werner-Quade commented she had gone over this again and again and what it boiled
down to is this. Werner-Quade noted she had called the city attorney and cleared up a
couple things. On the memo in the packet the problem seems to arise as referring in
one instance as a cabin rental and next instances of cabin rentals. Werner-Quade
stated that in the definition department of Title 14 we may need as many as three new
definitions. One, a definition of cabin —Mr. Graves has it under the Collegiate
Dictionary definition. Second would be cabin rental —that would refer to one cabin.
And, third, cabin rentals —referring to more than one cabin. Werner-Quade explained
the reason why is because when you start mixing rental in one paragraph and rentals
in the next paragraph, you have a problem with singular and plural. In the Land Use
Table, there are provisions for cabin rentals. In commercial, there is a provision for

C-2. Ordinance No. 1706-96 - Increasing Estimated Revenues
and Appropriations by $10,000 in a New Capital Project
Fund for a Phase I Environmental Assessment of the
Airport Jet Fuel Facility.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for adoption of Ordinance no. 1706-96
and Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Bookey stated he
thought the project was to be put on hold and not do anything on
it now. Engineering Technician Clark stated last winter the
matter was put on hold, but discussions had continued with DEC.
The matter was again discussed at a budget meeting. There were
no objections during those discussions, and it was brought
forward now. DEC was still holding the city responsible to do
the work and remove the underground storage tanks, etc.
Councilman Measles asked if there was a deadline by which the
work had to be completed. Clark stated DEC wanted a plan by the
end of June. Measles asked if they had not discussed filling the
tanks with sand and forgetting they were there. Clark answered
they had.pumped the tanks and DEC was told that was all the city
wanted to do. DEC wrote and stated a site assessment had to be
done.
Williams stated that if an assessment would be done, they would
have to assume they may have to remove the tanks or do
remediation. They would be tearing up the entire parking lot in
front of the terminal (airplane tiedowns). Clark stated
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
JULY 17, 1996
PAGE 9
something could be pumped into the tanks to eat at the fuel and
plug the ends. Potentially though, the tanks, etc. may have to
be pulled.
Moore asked if there were any potential fines. Clark answered,
DEC had the right to fine the city. She continued, DEC stated in
their last letter they would do the work for the city and then
charge the city for their costs.
Swarner asked what the real potential was for that to happen.
Clark answered she didn't know. Swarner added, DEC didn't have
funds to do work they were supposed to do, aside from this.
Measles asked where they would get the money to do the work up
front.
Smalley asked if the ordinance were to be tabled, an ordinance
would be on the record that the city was reviewing the matter and
would act on it in the future. Clark stated a letter could be
written stating the matter was being considered. Smalley asked
council if they were comfortable with that solution or would they
prefer to fail the ordinance.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED to table the ordinance and Councilman
Bannock SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. SO

Testing at the City Maintenance Shop.
MOTION:
Councilman Moore MOVED for adoption of Ordinance No. 1707-96 and
Councilman Bannock SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Moore asked why
additional drilling was warranted. Engineering Technician Clark
explained that originally, five wells were done there and in a
large area. Two of the wells were on the north property line.
They were drilled to try to identify whether the ground water was
contaminated coming in. The other wells were drilled to try to
further identify particular areas of concern.

something could be pumped into the tanks to eat at the fuel and
plug the ends. Potentially though, the tanks, etc. may have to
be pulled.
Moore asked if there were any potential fines. Clark answered,
DEC had the right to fine the city. She continued, DEC stated in
their last letter they would do the work for the city and then
charge the city for their costs.
Swarner asked what the real potential was for that to happen.
Clark answered she didn't know. Swarner added, DEC didn't have
funds to do work they were supposed to do, aside from this.
Measles asked where they would get the money to do the work up
front.
Smalley asked if the ordinance were to be tabled, an ordinance
would be on the record that the city was reviewing the matter and
would act on it in the future. Clark stated a letter could be
written stating the matter was being considered. Smalley asked
council if they were comfortable with that solution or would they
prefer to fail the ordinance.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED to table the ordinance and Councilman
Bannock SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. SO
ORDERED.
C-3. Ordinance No. 1707-96 - Increasing Estimated Revenues
and Appropriations by $10,000 in an Existing Capital
Project Fund for Additional Drilling and Environmental
Testing at the City Maintenance Shop.
MOTION:
Councilman Moore MOVED for adoption of Ordinance No. 1707-96 and
Councilman Bannock SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Moore asked why
additional drilling was warranted. Engineering Technician Clark
explained that originally, five wells were done there and in a
large area. Two of the wells were on the north property line.
They were drilled to try to identify whether the ground water was
contaminated coming in. The other wells were drilled to try to
further identify particular areas of concern.

Williams explained that where the shops presently were,
historical photographs show were once a military storage area.
There was reason to believe there was more than one issue in
regard to contamination. There could be some military,
government, and some city. The potential for liability of
contamination could spread over a large group of owners,
operators, etc. The city was dealing with a known contaminated
area that at some time, DEC will continue to push for some type
of remediation.
Moore asked what effect the possible contamination would have on
adjoining property. Williams answered, that was a good question.
Bookey asked how much money had already been spent drilling.
Clark answered, close to $40,000. Bookey asked how much more
costs might be involved, but not including clean up. Clark
answered this would probably complete the Phase II. If council
would then want to move into excavation and remediation, there
would be additional costs.
Charles Bailie - Asked what the military's liability was for the
contamination? Would the city assume the military's liability?
Attorney Graves answered, to the extent the city can identify the
military's liability, it would be the city's intent to have them
pay for it. Ordinarily, when the military was involved, it was
easier to get their technical assistance (their physical help to
clean a site) than to get actual cash. That may be the
involvement the city would get from the military. The city may
have to sue them to get them to contribute to pay for it.
Williams noted the FAA antenna farm was a well-known site in the
city on which council had stopped future development until a site
assessment could be completed.
Measles asked how many additional wells and testing would the
$10,000 get. Clark answered, five additional wells and a round
of testing. Measles asked if they thought the five additional
wells would identify the extent of the contamination. Clark
answered, hopefully they would identify the sources and where it
was coming onto the site. They wouldn't identify the entire
groundwater plume.
Bookey asked if she was indicating this was not necessarily an
on -site problem of the City of Kenai and that it could be an in-
flow from other property. Clark answered, the test wells could
possibly support that.

MOTION:

if all the monies were received from the State during the last
session. Feltman answered yes.

D-1. Council on Aging
Councilwoman Swarner reported there had not been a meeting since
the last council meeting. Senior Center Director Porter reported
Angeles Poage had decided to retire and a party would be given

Assisted Living Facility - Williams reported the developer was
waiting to start the project. He secured a $6 million loan from
GMAC who required a HUD guarantee certificate. HUD denied the
certificate. The developer contacted Alaska's congressional
delegation, as well as HUD but were not successful in acquiring

Lease lot for the Former Kenai Aviation Services, Inc. ("Jet Fuel Facility")
City of Kenai Maintenance Shop, Spill 4 94-23-01-101-02
Over the past year, there has been a series of correspondence between the Department and the City
of Kenai concerning outstanding contamination issues at the two sites listed above (copies are
enclosed). In our last letter to the city, dated May 6, 1996, we requested the City to describe how it
plans to address contamination at these two sites. The City has not responded to this request and
minutes from the City Council's July 17, 1996, meeting indicate that actions related to these
cleanups were tabled under ordinances Nos. 1706-96 and 1707-96.
The City maintenance shop site is considered a high priority by the Department, based upon a
potential threat to human health and the environment. A March, 1995 Phase I Site Assessment
Report and June, 1995 Phase II Site Assessment Report documented soil and groundwater
contamination from diesel range organics, gasoline range organics and chlorinated solvents
exceeding the site specific Level B cleanup standard. The Phase II report recommended that
additional assessment and remediation measures should be taken at this site. No action has been
taken to date.
In July 1995, the Department requested the City to conduct a site assessment of the Kenai Airport's
underground storage tank (UST) facility. There is reason to suspect a release occurred from this
system based on the assessment data collected at an adjacent UST facility. Although the tanks were
pumped in October 1995, the required decommissioning and assessment activities were not,
conducted and have not occurred to date.
I am very concerned with the potential environmental and public health effects from contamination
at these sites. As the property owner, it is the city's responsibility to address any environmental
issues at these sites. Please advise us or let's meet to discuss the City's intentions with regard to
these contaminated sites.
Sincerely,
ichele Brown

KENAI CITY CLERK
Alaslra Challenger Center for Space Science and Technology
Organizational Flanning
The October meeting of the Board of Directors was canceled. Kevin
Bruce, President of Northwest Strategies was slated to develop
fundraising strategies with board members --but canceled due to a
personal conflict. The board meeting is rescheduled for early
December. The Kenai Peninsula Borough School District has
appointed Dr. Walter Bromenschenkel and John Dahlgren (as
alternate) to service in the local school district seats. The City of
Kenai has appointed Duane Bannock and John Williams. The
University of Alaska appointments are under consideration following a
meeting with Vice Chancellor Hammer and Interim Provost Thomas
Brewer. When the final designated seat appointments are complete,
the balance of the board will be seated. Designing the partnership of
collaborators on the Challenger project has been rewarding and
challenging at the same time. Plans for creating a local interest group
or Booster Club will be developed further in the coming months.
Fundraising
Northwest Strategies' proposed terms for contingency based
fundraising contract were approved by the interim board. The
contract has not received ratification since the October 10 meeting
was canceled. A contract amendment for K. Scott & Associates, Inc.
is before the council for consideration. It recognizes that a
contingency fundraising organization will likely not pursue grants or
foundation donations, therefore, the oversight contractor will now
address that responsibility. The change is significant in terms of the
scope of work, therefore a contract amendment is necessary.
We have been notified that the Aerospace States Association grant has
been awarded to Alaska Challenger Center. Planning and development
for a program proposed to reach the Alaska classroom teacher and
develop a tie to the Governor's office is underway. This year the grant
proceeds are $7,500. There is potential for two more outreach grants
for similar amounts for 1997 & 1998. Space science symposia for
teachers recognizing the significance of the Challenger Center plays in
student learning of math and science is planned as the theme. Pat
Ladner, Executive Director, Alaska Aerospace Development
Corporation assisted directly in connecting the project with this grant.

The meeting with the Alaska Aerospace Development Corporation
Board of Directors resulted directly in benefits to the project
Associate Professor Joe Hawkins, University of Alaska Space Grant
Program and AADC Board member has offered to develop a home page
on the internet for the project offering to design and maintain it. That
constitutes a donation to the project of over $1,200. The full board of
the AADC is enthusiastic and supportive of the Alaska Challenger
Center for Space Science and Technology.
Board members John Williams, Ginger Steffy, Rene Azzara and project
facilitator Kathy Scott attended the Association of Science and
Technology Conference in Pittsburgh, PA October 26-30. The
conference offered a great opportunity to visual our concepts about the
inter -active display area and the electronic (or smart) classroom.
Friday's intensive was an overview of business planning for science
centers; Saturday and Sunday included multiple concurrent sessions.
Topics of interest to the project facilitator related to organizational
management including collaboration, board of trustees, architectural
planning, National Science Foundation grant funding proposals,
creating innovative teams, direct mail member acquisition and
mitigating public relations problems.
Other team members attended other sessions about displays, center
operations, program and planning. The sessions were taped and a few
tapes were purchased for the project and are available on loan to
anoyone interested:
• New Science Centers: Chances of Financial Success (3)
• Letter to My Architect
• Nuts & Bolts of Submitting a Proposal to the National Science
Foundation
• Creating Innovative Teams for Success
• Direct Mail Member Acquisition
• National Science Foundation Update
The insights gained at the conference are cause for reflection and
fuels the need for a discussion with the board about organization and
funding. We look forward to addressing the topics in a full group
meeting in early December. The representatives attending the
conference found it inspirational and informational-- "one of our best
decisions." Session leaders pointed out that the business planning for
emerging science centers must remain as fluid as the changing
technology found in the centers.
On Monday, October 29 our entourage traveled to Wheeling, West
Virginia with Pam Peterson, Regional Director, Challenger Center for

Space Science and Technology to visit the NASA Classroom of the
Future. Challenger Center Flight Director Nancy Sturn and her staff
provided us with a tour and lunch. The Wheeling facility is located on
the Wheeling Jesuit University Campus were NASA has developed the
Classroom of the Future.
Ginger Steffy and Rene Azzara will make a full report to the Kenai City
Council on November 6 and to the board about our conference
experience.
During November we will implement the selection process for
teachers selected from around the state to go to the Seattle Museum
of Flight and begin develop of the teacher symposia. Preparation for
an early December Board meeting will mean finalizing the board roster
and orienting new board members. Focused attention will be given to
foundations and grant possibilities for planning and development, as
well as capital construction. We await news of the arrangements
facilitated by Ashley Reed for a meeting with the Governor in order to
inform him of the project and invite his participation in the Seattle
familiarization event

ITEM B: SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENT
B-1. Ginger Steffy/Kathy Scott - Trip Report/1996 ASTC
Conference, "Touching Minds and Changing Futures"
Kathy Scott and Rene Azzara reported on their trip to Pittsburgh,
PA and Wheeling, WV to attend the "Touching Minds and Changing
Futures" conference in relation to the Challenger Center project.
Scott reported the conference attendees came from the United
States and foreign countries as well. Most were planning new
science facilities. There were eight to ten concurrent sessions.
Those attending with Scott and Azzara (Ginger Steffy and John
Williams) attended separate sessions to cover as many sessions as
possible.
Scott added, most of the attendees were there to see how they
could link education to science centers. There were 80+
exhibitors at the trade show as well.
Azzara reported on the group's trip to Wheeling, WV to visit the
Challenger Learning Center at Wheeling Jesuit College. While
there, they visited with representatives from the National
Science Foundation in regard to grant funds. Azzara also stated
they visited the Distant Learning Classroom at the College. The
group felt the trip to the conference as well as to Wheeling was
the best use of funds as they saw and learned a lot of
information that will help in bringing the Alaska Challenger
Center to fruition.
B-2. Kathy Scott - Presentation of Relocating the Kenai
Public Health Center Study.
Scott reviewed the study with council and informed council there
were some typographical errors in the report which would be
corrected prior to the bulk of the copies being made. Scott
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
NOVEMBER 6, 1996
PAGE 3
explained the study was requested by the City of Kenai as the
demand for services of the Health Center had increased over the
years and their leased space in City Hall well exceeded their
space, heating, ventilation and air circulation requirements as
defined by ADA and OSHA.
Scott added, there were four sections to the report offering
historical background and describing the Center and City's
partnership; defining the goals of the Center (assessment,
monitoring and providing technical assistance, and epidemiology);
Center space requirements (including comparisons between the
Kenai Health Center and others in the state); and relocation
options (offering four locations of city -owned properties and
design/build proposals, i.e. lease/purchase of build -to -
specification space, state-owned office space and lease of
private commercial space).
The report also offered opinions that the City of Kenai had met
its obligation to the State of Alaska by providing the space
currently occupied by the Health Center as long as the city
allowed the Center to remain; increased demand for services had
caused growth of the Center's programs and staff overcrowding;
the City wants the Health Center to remain in Kenai and would
work in partnership with the Center to stay; and the population
distribution for the client base warranted locating the facility
in Kenai.
Scott noted, consideration of Lots 13 and 14, CIIAP, one of the
locations which was of particular interest for relocating of the
Center, was complicated by the State's requesting RFP's for a co -
location for public facilities.
Williams noted a resolution accepting/supporting the study would
be included on the November 13, 1996 agenda.
JoAnn Hagen - Kenai Health Center Supervisor. Hagen thanked
council for their interest and concern in regard to their need
for space and possible relocation of the facility. She
complimented Scott in preparing the report and added, the report
was extremely accurate and informative. She also stated the city
had had a long-standing relationship with the Center and they
appreciated it very much.
Swarner noted the difference in space between the Kenai Health
Center and that of other Centers in the state. Williams noted,
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
NOVEMBER 6, 1996
PAGE 4
the study brought out how severely overlooked the Kenai Center
had been by the State of Alaska in regard to space, clients
served, etc.
Williams suggested the City should define terms as to how it
wanted to proceed in regard to the relocation and where and how
to accomplish it. He asked council to direct Administration to
meet with the Division of Public Health in regard to the
development of a new center in Kenai, proceeding with the project
this year or next. No action taken.
B-3. Dorothy Gray - Russian Orthodox Church.
Gray explained that during the last wind storm, the wooden cross,
situated on top of the dome of the chapel, was blown down. The
Church had had a stainless steel cross manufactured to replace
the wooden cross. They had investigated the rental of equipment
(a boom -truck) to aid in placing the cross on the dome and found
it to be too costly. She added, she was aware of the church and
state restrictions, and requested council to make an exception
and allow city equipment be used to lift someone up to place the
cross on the dome.
Swarner asked if the Church would want a city employee to attach
the cross. Gray answered, the Church had someone who could
attach the cross. They were needing the equipment to lift the
person up. Acting Public Works Director La Shot stated, the
weight of the cross could be a concern. Gray stated the
stainless steel cross weighed approximately four pounds.
City Manager Ross stated he would want a city employee to be in
the bucket and not a civilian. Councilman Measles agreed.
Councilman Smalley stated he had no objection to the city making
the equipment available, etc., but asked if the city would be
liable for any damage that could happen if the bucket slipped,
etc. Attorney Graves answered, he would assume the Church would
hold the city harmless. Gray stated the Church had liability
insurance.
Councilman Bookey stated he was not sure the city's truck would
be able to reach and La Shot stated he would have that
investigated.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Swarner MOVED to have the city cooperate with the
Russian Orthodox Church in putting the cross back on the dome.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
NOVEMBER 6, 1996
PAGE 5
Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion. There were no
objections. SO ORDERED.
It was also suggested the new ladder fire truck could be used as
it had the ability to extend further than the bucket truck.
BREAK TAKEN: 8:01 P.M.
BACK TO ORDER: 8:10 P.M.
ITEM C: PUBLIC HEARINGS
C-1. Ordinance No. 1723-96 - Approving and Adopting the

Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Bannock stated he
would vote in favor of the ordinance, however he had some
reservations in doing so as he didn't feel the city netted many
results from its last hire of the lobbyist. Bannock noted, if he
was not satisfied with the results of the lobbyist's work this
year, he would not vote in support of a lobbyist hire next year.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
NOVEMBER 6, 1996

Smalley stated he felt the lobbyist keeping the city
administration and council informed of activities in the
legislature were crucial. He asked if the reporting
requirements, which council discussed with Reed, were included in
the agreement. Attorney Graves stated they had been incorporated
into the agreement. The draft agreement had been forwarded to
Mr. Reed and he telephoned Kim Howard and stated the terms of the
agreement were acceptable to him.
VOTE:
Bannock: Yes Smalley: Yes ookey: Yes WYes
Williams:Swarner: Yes
Measles: Yes Moore: Yes
MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
C-3. Resolution No. 96-84 - Transferring
Kenai ARFF Capital Project Fund for Travel in the
MOTION:
Councilwoman Swarner MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 96-84
and Councilman Smalley SECONDED the mnt;nn
There were no public comments.
Councilwoman Swarner requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
Airport Manager Ernst explained the funds were to pay for costs
to travel to Helena, MT and Modesto, CA to examine airliner
firefighting facilities. It was explained, the Kenai facility
would be a twin to the one in Montana. In Modesto, they would
also review a facility and discuss agreement requirements between
the facility and university.
Ernst further explained, the reservations for the trip had been
made about one and one-half weeks prior and this evening was
deadline for payment of the fares. The cost for the fares was
$3,104 and a purchase order would come to council in the next
packet. Ernst requested council to allow him to put the fare
costs on his personal credit card in order to hold the cost of
the fares at $3,104 and the itinerary as it was set. He
explained the persons traveling would be himself, Attorney
Graves, Mayor Williams and Fire Chief Burnett. One fare would be
paid for by the FAA.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
NOVEMBER 6, 1996
PAGE 7
Bannock asked if his travel budget was already out of money or
was this an unplanned, unbudgeted trip. Ernst explained it was
an unplanned trip. He also explained the $10,000 would include
the airfares for this trip, as well as hotel and per diem costs.
There would be approximately $3,500 left from the $10,000
transferred which would probably be used for future
administrative costs. Those additional costs would be brought to
council as they arose.
VOTE:
There were no objections to Swarner's request for unanimous
consent. 80 ORDERED.
C-4. 1996-97 Liquor License Application - Old Town Village
Restaurant.
Councilwoman Swarner explained she requested the application be
removed from the consent agenda due to errors she saw on the
application in regard to the closest school grounds and church to
the restaurant. Swarner noted the application stated the closest
school was the Kenai Alternative School and the closest church
was the Russian Orthodox Church. Swarner felt the Kenai Bible
Church and Kenai Cooperative Preschool were closer.

Councilman Smalley MOVED to approve the application pending the
changes on the application to reflect Councilwoman Swarner's
concerns. Councilman Measles SECONDED the motion.
Mrs. Vozar was in the audience and was asked if she had any
concerns with making the changes to the application. Vozar
explained her understanding of her discussion with the ABC office
was that she should list the closest public school. She did not
know the preschool was a part of the school district. She added,
she automatically thought about the Russian Orthodox Church and
had not thought about the Kenai Bible Church location.
Swarner asked Graves if the statute defined whether the school
needed to be public or private. Graves stated the statute did
not define whether it was to be a private or public school.

D-5. Parks & Recreation Commission
Councilman Bannock reported the next meeting would be held on
November 7.
D-6. Planning & Zoning Commission
Councilman Smalley reported the minutes of the October 23
Commission meeting were included in the packet. He suggested
council read the minutes as they were very interesting. Smalley
reviewed actions taken by the Commission. He explained a great
deal of discussion took place in regard to the landscape/site
plan for Pad "C" of the CIIAP Subdivision (in front of the new
Carrs grocery store). Most of the discussion was about a fence
the developer wanted to place around part of the property in
order to hide the utility box and the dumpster, making the
building more pleasant to sight. The plan was approved.
Smalley also reported he discussed the comment made at the last
council meeting in regard to home occupation permits and the
notification of neighbors of permit applicants. He thought there
would be something developed and brought back for consideration.
Councilman Moore noted some corrections needing to be made in the
minutes as follows:
a. Page 18, Paragraph 4, first line, "...meeting of the
HOP in Inlet Woods." Should be Rogers Road.
b. Page 19, Paragraph 4, first line, "...Mayor was asking
Joe Moore to talk to the Airport Commission..." Should
be Councilman Measles.
Swarner requested a clarification be made at Page 6, Item 7, New
Business, "a. Review of Title 14 of the Mahurin--Cabins" as

well. Smalley stated he would bring the concerns to the
Commission.
Bannock commented that in reading the minutes, he could only
imagine the discussion which took place. He added, there seemed
to be an attitude that a developer would purposely build
something that would be offensive as possible. He questioned why
members of the Commission would think a developer who was going
to build a building in front of the biggest building in town
would build something offensive. He was upset with the thought
that was how some of the members might feel.
Smalley stated he appreciated Bannock's concerns, but there had
been some instances in which landscape/site plans were submitted
and the developer/builder did not follow through with the
approved plan. He felt the Commission had a concern. He added,
the Commission was comfortable with the plan after talking with
Mr. Norville (the developer). Their actions were part of their
function.
D-7. Miscellaneous Commissions and Committees

Councilwoman Swarner referred to the application for placement on

Council had no objections.

H-10. Discussion - Capital Improvement List.
Council reviewed the information included in the packet, listing
city streets and their condition (paved, graveled, etc.). He
also referred to a note he distributed at the beginning of the
meeting which discussed other capital projects. Council reviewed
the list of streets and decided that if funds were received from
the legislature for Community Road Development, they would want
to proceed with upgrading Juliussen, Ames, Basin View, Magic,
Princess, and McCollum as there was interest from residents to
have the road paved as well as the fact that the roads had been
upgraded to gravel base and were ready for paving.
Williams also reported he had been approached by residents of
Swallow and Kittiwake who were interested in having those roads
paved. They had not contacted city offices or proceeded with a
petition, but were willing to pay their share of costs to pave
the roads. Discussion followed in regard to Swallow/Kittiwake.
Williams also asked if council would want to pave Boat Launch
Road due to the heavy traffic it received during the summer from
both commercial and private boats and trailers, etc.
Swarner stated she had been requested by a resident on Lantern
Circle to upgrade that road to good gravel. She added, she would
prefer doing jobs like that instead of paving.
Smalley noted the dust on Boat Launch Road would not bother
anyone and was not used year around. He added, he would prefer
paving residential areas. Williams had no objections to not
paving Boat Launch Road as it would be the city's cost to do so.
Bannock noted there were also streets in VIP Subdivision which
had not been paved and didn't have water and sewer. He felt
subdivisions, like Basin View, who had already presented an
interest in having the street paved and paying for their share of
the costs, should be paved first. He also agreed with Smalley
that Boat Launch Road did not need to be paved and the city
should concentrate on paving in residential areas, such as VIP
and Basin view.
Council reviewed the 1996/97 Capital Improvements list. Ross
noted he had been told that the more concise the list was, the
less confusing it would be for the legislators. He suggested the
division titles (Health & Safety/Tourism) be removed and one
prioritized list be presented.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
NOVEMBER 6, 1996
PAGE 15
Council agreed to keep water quantity/quality in first place;
Community Road Development in second (forwarding information to
the legislators that people in the areas the city wished to pave
were willing to pay their share of the development costs); and
remove the animal control shelter.
Bookey clarified that the city was not withdrawing from the
shelter project and that it would be a major project of the
city's. Council agreed.
Council also decided to remove the satellite fire station from
the list; place sewer system improvements in third place; add the
Challenger Project (at $2,000,000) in fourth place; move ADA
Compliance to Public Facilities to fifth place; place Library
Addition as number six; and place Marine Industrial Development
in seventh position.
Amounts of projects listed from last year would remain the same.
The finished list would then be:
1. Water Quality/Quantity Development Program $ 960,000
2. Community Road Development 2,400,000
3. Sewer System Improvements 5,000,000
4. Challenger Center Project 2,000,000
5. ADA Compliance to Public Facilities 1,000,000
6. Library Addition 1,000,000
7. Marine Industrial Development 1,000,000
TOTAL REQUEST $13,360,000
Discussion continued in regard to Williams' list. Williams
requested the list be developed with a one -line description of
the project's progress, etc. The list would then be updated and
included in council packets once a month.
Smalley suggested placing bluff erosion on the list, but was not
sure it would be noted by the Legislature even though a lot of
concern had been expressed. Williams suggested Bill Nelson be
prompted in regard to the grant application he stated he would
investigate in order to get funding for a bluff erosion project.
Williams referred to his suggestion that the Martha Cunningham
home be relocated to the park strip area. He explained he was
contacted by Mr. Larry Roscoe, who wanted to donate the building
to the city, along with a collection of old letters, newspaper
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
NOVEMBER 6, 1996
PAGE 16
articles, etc. He added, he and Parks & Recreation Director
Frates had looked at the house ad noted it was unique as the logs
were dove -tailed. The house was built about 1945. He also had
representatives from the Softball Association look at the
building as well. He thought the house could be used as a club
house by softball officials, etc. during tournaments and the
Softball Association could volunteer to help in relocating the
building.
Williams added, he also thought the donkey engine could be placed
in the same vicinity (on a concrete pad and covered) and
sidewalks could be placed around them. Swarner asked for a cost
estimate. Williams answered he believed the building and donkey
engine, including the concrete slab, cover and sidewalks, could
be done for $25,000. The building would be placed on skids in
order to make it a temporary building and acceptable by the FAA
to be placed there. Williams requested Administration review the
project and estimate the costs, as well as ADA compliance
requirements, etc.
Smalley requested the Parks & Recreation Commission review the
project prior to Administration proceeding.
EXECUTIVE SESSION - None scheduled.

again. Ross added, he (Ross) was not encouraged by Murkowski in
regard to the bluff erosion concerns.
d. Bluff Damage/FEMA Funding - Ross explained an

regard to storm drain and parking lot damage last year. The

completed prior to the declaration emergency date.
e. RIP Program - Ross reported that from the six employees
who were eligible, only one was interested. He recommended the
city not participate as the cost to the city would be $46,000 and
only approximately $1,600 would be recovered over three years.
f. Armory Parking Lot - Ross reported the city had
received a call on Monday at approximately 3:30 p.m. in regard to
the need for the Armory parking lot to be plowed. The Armory was
to be used for the General Election. The lot was also sanded on
Tuesday morning. He reported he allowed the work to be done by
city crews due to the late notice of the need. He suggested the
activity be tickled for next year in order that the rightful
people do the work.
g. City Manager Search - Ross stated he would like council
to set a work session in order to review the draft screening
document (to be used to review resumes) he had completed. He

a city manager in order to design interview questions. No date
was set.

applications were received in answer to the letters. The letter
also identified other boards, commissions and committees of which
they may also be interested.

adjustments to plans and construction of the stairway and one of
the walkways to the beach. The walkway was shortened because the
last storm cut approximately 301 away from the dunes and the

presented to council for final approval at the November 13
meeting.

the audience and asked if there had been a change in
administration. Ross informed him that at the present time, La
Shot was serving in the capacity of the Public Works Director.

Kornelis no longer worked for the city, or if it was none of his

serving as the Public Works Director.

ITEM B: BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
Verbatim:
Williams: I will now call the City Council to order as a Board of
Adjustment for hearing the appeal of Mr. Delmar Sanders. Now, as
we begin the appeal process, the appeal process, with regard to
the council itself, council will be operating as a quasi-judicial

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
APPEAL OF DELMAR J. SANDERS
PAGE 2
Sanders: I do.
Williams: All right, thank you Mr. Sanders. Please proceed with
your presentation.
Sanders: I am applying for a variance on my property. Some of
the things that transpired was I had built a house on Lot 8, VIP.
On a final of building the house, I asked Mr. Springer come over
and do the final inspection. At that time he did he informed me
that I had to have 15' variance on both sides of the property.
At that time I had no built my garage. I was in the planning
stage of it. So, I was under the impression it was just ten feet
on both sides.
So, at that time, he said that I would have to apply for a
variance. Which I did. That was in late September. It came
October ninth, or between September and October I came to the
City Hall and asked Mr. Springer if it would bother anybody if I
went ahead, due to the weather conditions, that I would go ahead
and pour cement since my cement contractor was working at Tesoro
and was going to be busy the last of October.
So, he said no, that it wouldn't bother anybody to ah, if I could
ah, pour the cement, I just could not build anything on the, on
the garage. I took it one step farther and went over to Mr. La
Shot and asked him if it would ruffle anybody's feathers if I
would pour just the concrete and my sidewalks due to the weather.
He said no, that would be fine as long as I didn't build any wood
structure on it. So I did.
Ah, and then on October ninth I was denied my variance. As you
saw in the paper, my neighbor didn't object to it. I had, on
October ninth, when they, Zoning and Planning met, I had another
obligation that I had to go to. I feel if I would have been
there, I could have clarified some of the questions that they had
at that time that led to my denial. So I just feel that I, I
just was kinda unjustly represented.
That's all I have to say.
Williams: Okay. Thank you. Are there questions from the
council? Councilwoman Swarner.
Swarner: Mr. Sanders, when did you build your house?
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
APPEAL OF DELMAR J. SANDERS
PAGE 3
Sanders: It was a manufactured home. I started the foundation
in June. They brought the house in, around the first, nearest to
my recollection, about the first of September.
Swarner: So, of 96?
Sanders: Ah, yes.
Swarner: Okay, because I drove by there yesterday and, and I
didn't assume from driving by that your house was that new.
Sanders: Ah, yes.
Swarner: Okay.
Sanders: It was completed in, right around the end of October.
They did the final inspection.
Swarner: Thank you.
Williams: Councilman Bannock.
Bannock: Mr. Sanders. In looking at your letter dated October
14th to the council asking for this appeal, in your second to the
last paragraph, you say, "...in regards to the Planning & Zoning
Commission, who in fact granted the variance application, I'm
seeking through appeal." Can you expound on that a little bit.
I don't quite understand that because it appears that they've
turned you down.
Sanders: Yes. I was under, when I wrote this letter, that the,
when, if you look back in this packet, it says ah, "granted."
Well, I was just under the wrong impression. When they say
"granted" you grant them the, to apply for it.
Bannock: Okay ... okay.
Sanders: It's kind of poorly worded there.
Bannock: That's a good answer, I was just a little confused on
that. Thank you.
Williams: Yes, Councilwoman Swarner.
Swarner: Well, I guess, to further the question, is when I drove
by there, the left of the house, was that supposed to be garage
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
APPEAL OF DELMAR J. SANDERS

in the design? Because that's what I assumed that you just put,
you had closed the garage and put a single door in when you're
facing your house to, on the left-hand side.
Sanders: There's no garage there.
Swarner: Well, I realize that, but it, there's a door like maybe
there could have been a garage there at one point. Was that in
the design? There was never any garage in your design?
Sanders: No. There was never no, there's just a front door and
a back door.
Swarner: Okay.
Williams: Councilman Smalley.
Smalley: Mr. Mayor, for the record, in the testimony, in the
public hearing held at the Planning & Zoning level, the comment
is in the packet, page 2 of the Planning & Zoning minutes, it
says, basically next to the bottom line, "...The 4.5 ft. seems
unreasonable request considering that a variance is a legal way
of breaking an intended law..." And, in the code it defines and
talks about variance permits and it says, "Intent: Variance
means the relaxation of development requirements of this chapter
to provide relief when the literal enforcement could deprive or
would deprive the property owner of the reasonable use of his
property." I would like to clarify that.
Williams: Further discussion of the council, any other questions.
I'm sorry, I was discussing the matter with the attorney and z
didn't get the gist of all of Councilman Smalley's question, so
if I ask this question and it's redundant, please...
Smalley: Tell you so?
Williams: Yeah. In the, in the letter dated October 14th you
stated that you felt not all the pertinent facts pertaining to
your case had been heard. Can you elaborate on that a little bit
please?
Sanders: Ah, like I so stated earlier, was the idea, from what I
understand, from Planning & Zoning Commission, that they were
thought I had already started building on the property or
building the garage cause I had gone ahead and poured the
concrete. And, that was not my intent to do. My intent was just

to get the concrete poured and like I stated, I had asked two of
the people from the city, ah, the city engineer and the city
inspector, if I could go ahead and do that and I thought that was
enough permission to go ahead and pour the concrete. That's what
I meant by, if I had been there and explained it, I think they
would have understood it. So, as not being there, I think that's
where I got missed.
Williams: Thank you. Councilman Bookey.
Bookey: I got one for the Administration. I guess for Jack La
Shot. If this variance is granted, will this leave him within
compliance to the building laws, building inspection laws and the
fire codes.
La Shot: Yes, it would.
Bookey: Thank you.
Williams: I might ask one question. Are you aware of the
memorandum dated November first from Jack La Shot to the City
Manager regarding your conversation?
Sanders:. Ah, No.
Williams: All right, I think you probably should have a copy of
this. Mr. La Shot states in his memorandum that he had discussed
the issue of pouring the slab with you and you were concerned
about beating the cold weather and that he said to you that
anything you did prior to the required P&Z action was at your own
risk and your statement was that you understood and said you may
be able to use the slab in another way, such as a driveway
parking area, if the variance was not granted. Is that the way
you recall the conversation?
Sanders: Yeah...yes.
Williams: Okay. All right, are there further questions from the
council? Just for council's benefit too, one of the things I was
discussing with the attorney was the difference between rural
residential and suburban residential. Rural residential requires
a 15' setback and suburban residential requires five.
All right, is there further, anything further that... Councilman
Bannock.
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HEARING
APPEAL OF DELMAR J. SANDERS
PAGE 6
Bannock: Thanks. I would just like to point out that under the
staff report on the un-named page between BA-3c and BA-3d, the
staff reports the administration did recommend approval on this
comments from the city engineer and building official. It
appears there was no problem. I, I disagree with some of the
findings from the Planning & Zoning Commission here because I
think that they're, I don't think that they're correct in their
assessment of what a variance does and what its useful purposes
are. Ah, so, in this instance, I would have to go along with the
administration's recommendation. That's all I have to say.
Thank you.
Williams: All right, anything further from the council at this
point? Seeing none then I'll thank you for your testimony and
ask you to just stand by for a moment while we ask if there is
anyone else from the general audience that wishes to speak ah, on
behalf of this particular matter, either on behalf of Mr. Sanders
or any other information that might be available?
Okay. Does the administration wish to add anything? Anything
further that the council would like to address? Is there any
last comment that you would like to make Mr. Sanders? Okay.
All right. Seeing then that the council's probably received all
the information that's available at the present time, we will
then go ahead and take all of this into consideration and in
conjunction with the administration, a reply will be forthcoming
as to our decision.
Is there anything else regarding this matter? Seeing none then,
the matter of the appeal of Delmar Sanders is hereby closed.
END OF VERBATIM.

THIRD GRADE CLASSES
Mt. View Elementary School
315 Swires Road
Kenai, AK 99611
Greetings to all the third grade classes at Mt. View Elementary School! Thank you for
visiting with Councilman Joe Moore during his recent trip to your school. Councilman
Moore asked that I pass along his personal greetings to each of you and tell you that he
was very glad that he was able to visit with you.
During his visit to the school, many of you gave notes to councilman Moore with your
thoughts on how the City of Kenai might be a better place to live. I have compiled
those notes into a survey and have passed the results onto the Kenai City Council. We
here at City. Hall want to thank you for your time and effort in preparing your
suggestions (copy attached). While not all of the items on the survey can be
accomplished, we will take them all under advisement and see what we can do to make
some of them happen.
Again, for Councilman Moore and all of us at City Hall, keep up the good work and if
you have the opportunity, drop by and see us.
Sincerely,
CITY OF KENAI

A MESSAGE FROM CHAMBER PRESIDENT SAMMIE COLE
As October came and went, we now look forward to the holidays and a new year. With the new year comes new members to
the Chamber Board. As President of the Board. I urge you to watch for your ballots and participate in the voting process.
This is "your" Chamber and we are here to serve the interests of the business community in the best possible manner.
Everyone is asked to invest in the programs, projects and services of the Chamber, both by their membership and their
participation. The Chamber will strive to focus on those issues of utmost importance to the business community. Since
1957, the Chamber has played a major role in shaping the economic and social growth of the city. Today, almost 500
members continue that tradition of community commitment. On behalf of the present Board of Directors, I would like to say,
"Thank you for your commitment."
On a lighter note, you don't have to worry anymore about that "special" pie
auctioned off at our 2nd Annual Pie Auction. Shorty and Joe Chumley, owners of
Chumley's, Inc., were the lucky recipients of the pie in the face. Their dedicated
staff collected $425 so they could present this "gift." Thanks Shorty and Joe for
being such good sports!

Governor Tony Knowles on White House
Fellowships, we wanted to share it with you
should you have a very special young person
in vour life that would benefit from this
program.
You have a terrific opportunity to help an exceptional young man or woman
participate in this year's White House Fellowships.
The White House Fellowships were established in 1964 by President Lyndon B.
Johnson to encourage young Americans with leadership potential to get to know
their federal government firsthand. Fellows spend a year working at the highest
level of government, as special assistants to cabinet secretaries and top members
of the President's staff. White House Fellows also participate in an education
program that includes intimate meetings with leaders from all realms of society
and travel to domestic and foreign destinations to explore policy issues in depth.
During its 32-year history, this nonpartisan Fellowship program has nurtured
leaders in many fields. Alumni from the program include retired General Colin
Powell, Housing Secretary Henry Cisneros, CNN President Tom Johnson, and
Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Doris Kearns Goodwin. The selection process is
rigorous with decisions based on demonstrated leadership, character, professional
contributions, and community service.
If you know someone who has what it takes to become a White House Fellow,
please give him or her the following information to contact the White House for
an application packet: (202)395-4522, or http://www.whitehouse.gov/WH/

"Alaska at War" On June 3, 1942, Japanese forces struck
Dutch Harbor, Alaska, and set in motion a brutal 15 month war

federally -owned railroad in the Territory of Alaska.
