From: Kenai Central High School After Prom Activities Committee/Date: April 12 1996
Subject: Use of the Recreation Center
Kenai Central High School will be holding their Jr./Sr. Prom on May 4, 1996. In past
years the parents of the Junior class try to provide activities to provide a safe, chaperoned
environment for the youth of the community following the prom. This year we have found
the community businesses to have been "hit" hard for donations from various committees
due to proms and graduations of the four local high schools being scheduled closely
together. Many of the businesses who have been more than generous in the past have had
to deny us any contributions this year. We are trying to find alternative ways of holding
activities without having to spend much money. We have been in contact with Mr. Frates
and Mr. McGillivray of the Recreation Center and understand that the cost of renting the
facility is $300.00. It is our understanding that Mr. Bob Frates and Ms. Jean Goodlife,
both Recreation Center employees would be willing to donate their time that night, and
that there are other city employees who have Junior class students who would also be
chaperones and work "clean-up" afterwards.
At this time, with time and funds so short, and with the cooperation of numerous
city employees willing to help that night, we would like the Mayor and Council to consider
a request for either a lesser fee being charged or perhaps even waiving the fee for that
night. We are aware that the City of Kenai provides many benefits for the citizens and
organizations of the community and are grateful for this consideration.
Sincerely,
The KCHS After -Prom Committee

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor John Williams and Members of the Kenai City Council
FROM: C 0 Cary R. Graves, City Attorney
DATE: March 28, 1996
RE: Clean-up of Lots 13 and 14
In September 1995, the Council approved a settlement with the State of Alaska and the
Potentially Responsible Parties regarding the soil contamination of the courthouse site and related
construction costs increases. That settlement paid the City $400,000.
As part of that settlement, the City agreed to clean up Lot 13 and Santa Fe Drilling agreed to
clean up Lot 14 in a joint and cooperative manner. Lots 13 and 14 are the two lots adjacent to
the courthouse on which the soil excavated during courthouse construction was stored and
cleaned. In order to achieve an economy of scale, the settlement envisioned the City contracting
out and supervising the actual clean-up of Lots 13 and 14, with Santa Fe Drilling to reimburse
the City for the costs of clean-up of Lot 14.
The total cost of clean-up for both lots has been estimated by Engineering Tech Rachel Clark
at $70,000, including a contingency of 5%. She indicated that the estimate is probably high, and
she expects the cost to actually come in lower. Assuming it does cost $70,000, we would be
reimbursed about half; so our cost should be about $35,000.
The clean-up costs are to be taken out of the airport fund which the settlement money went into.
I have attached a description of the clean-up project timetable from Rachel Clark for your
information.
If you have any questions, please stop by my office at City Hall or give me a call.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: CARY GRAVES, CITY ATTORNEY
FROM: RACHEL CLARK, ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN RCi
SUBJECT: LOTS 13 AND 14, CIIAP, REMEDIATION
DATE: MARCH 29, 1996
As requested, I have prepared a brief description of the excavation and remediation projects
anticipated for Lots 13 and 14 of the Courthouse Site. The project will be divided into three
separate contracts:
1. Third Party Services
2. Excavation and Stockpiling
3. Remediation
Third Party Services
The Third Party Services contract will include preparation of an excavation plan, oversite of soil
excavation and the sampling (DRO,GRO, BTEX and TPH) of the excavation perimeters. This
contract will be bid as a lump sum for design, management and excavation oversite and as a per
unit sample price for the testing. If Santa Fe agrees, I expect to have this out for proposals by
April 15, with an award date of May 15, 1996.
Excavation and Stockpiling
The second contract will be for the actual excavation of contaminated soil. I have separated this
phase out to ensure that the third party does not have vested interest in increasing the amount of
soil excavated. This contract will be bid as a unit price per cubic yard excavated and properly
stockpiled. It will also be out for bid April 15, with an award date of May 15, 1996.
Remediation
The remediation contract should be out to bid July 1, with bids returned by July 15, and a
contract award date of July 17, 1996. At this point we are specifying thermal desorption as the
remediation method, and expect the project to be completed by October 1, 1996. If no thermal
bids come in, or if the bid are too high in our determination, the City would consider using a
different method. Switching methods may, however, require a second construction season to
complete. The remediation contract will be a lump sum price to clean and dispose of all the
stockpiled soil.
If you have any further questions, please let me know.

4. Persons Present Scheduled to be Heard
5. Old Business
a. Recap Pending Projects
i. Automated Fuel System Float Plane Basin
Ernst advised that tomorrow they will have the final computer blessing on the
system and will be on line with the automated fuel system by the time the water
has thawed. Knackstedt asked what had taken so long as he had forgotten. Ernst
stated there had been a year delay because of problems with the original bank
passed onto another bank and they decided they wanted more information. That
went on throughout that whole summer. Now, we finally have everything that we
need. The bank's blessing, the system working. Ernst noted they had dispensed
fuel from there last fall as an advertising ploy.
ii. Airport Advertising Concession
Ernst drew attention to the documents in the packet noting this is what has been
provided to those interested. Ernst stated that three of these have been given out.
One to the Airspace Concession people, another to Magnum, and Paul Gray of the
Nickel Saver. They have to be in by 2 p.m. on 4/19/96. Ernst stated that he
AIRPORT COMMISSION APRIL 11, 1996 PAGE 1
MINUTES
recalled someone was going to help evaluate those. Holloway noted it was him
and Barbara Edwards. Ernst stated he will contact them after 2 p.m. on the 19"
and they can establish a time to get together.
iii. Master Plan
Ernst commented that if the Commission drew a line from the 3 to 9a on the
agenda, the FAA letter approved Working Paper No. 1 so it is proceeding. In
conjunction with that, 9b informational items, Aries has asked the Flight Service
Station to give a count starting in May on the activity after the tower closes. Flight
Service will put a weather person in the tower for weather observation. Ernst
noted he did not know what had happened with the other person who had been
doing weather observation but there will be an FSS type in there taking weather.
They will give an account and Ernst noted he will ask that they start counting the
float plane operations also.
iv. Float Plane Basin Camp Sites
Ernst noted that he had talked with Commissioner Knackstedt and to the
administration and council, although not formally, and they will not be drilling a
well. This is because of the problems with DEC and EPA and the DEC item needs
to be resolved with the contaminated soils on the terminal side of the runway. It
probably would not be prudent to drill a well because the city has said there is no
way anything can be contaminated from that site.
Ernst stated he had spoken with the shop teacher at KCHS and he was to have
gotten back on the grates for the fire pits and he has not responded. Because of
that, they will probably be ordered commercially and that information is being
obtained through Parks & Rec. The picnic tables will be obtained. Ernst stated the
pads are already there.
Holloway asked if there was any chance for a water tank being placed there for a
water supply? Ernst stated it would have to be fairly secure. Bielefeld asked if
there were water in other overnight campsites in town. Discussion that there were
not any on the bluffs? Knackstedt stated there is a hand pump type by the
municipal playground adjacent to the campground. Ernst commented that it seems
like people get water somehow. If there is a big out cry, they may need to look at
coming from Birch or what should be Avenue. That is where the power was
brought through. There is a utility right of way there. Discussion that it might be
cheaper to do that than to drill a well and it is almost equal distance to the well
house too. Ernst added that if they went to the well house they would have to go
under paved road but if they went to the well house, if they use the Fifth Street
entrance, there is just the gravel road. Knackstedt asked if anyone had looked at
extending a main and a installing afire hydrant in case of a need with the fueling
point. Ernst stated they had spoken with the water and sewer person and he will
AIRPORT COMMISSION APRIL 11, 1996 PAGE 2
MINUTES
be checking it out. Ernst stated he thought that would be expensive and it might
be better to tap a line into the line at Birch and come down Fifth Avenue.
b. Fire Training Center
Ernst stated this has been moving quickly. In conjunction, Ernst suggested
combining the Fire Training Center with the Interact Proposal which is under New
Business. That proposal is in the packet and council passed Resolution 96-29 and
approved $27,500 ($20,000 to bring the group online to do the work and another
$7,500 for transportation). Ernst stated they have contracted with them to do a
business plan for the Fire Training Center. Ernst drew attention to the document in
the packet and explained the figures in the proposal.
Commission viewed a video that had been prepared by the Interact Group.
Ernst advised there is a training brochure that goes with the video. There will be a
different cover on it. There were some made up for the fire chiefs so they could
look to see what the particular curriculum will be. Ernst stated this will be
approached basically by saying we want the facility to be here; however, not
saying that the city will be the trainers. Organizations can bring their trainers and
use the facility. That gives the State Fire Marshall and the state training people an
out. They can train their people but use this facility. In conjunction with that have
the University of Alaska operate the facility. Ernst noted that the city is required by
the FAA to own it and it will be owned by the city. Ernst gave an example of the
Hilton Hotel being owned by a native corporation and they hire someone to run it.
Ernst stated they did have the statewide fire training people there to put on a
presentation and they thought it would be a bid for the center but it fell short of
that. However, they would like to see this facility built at Camp Carroll rather than
at Kenai. They are behind the power curve with a long way to go. Ernst stated he
didn't think they could convince the federal government that putting $5 million
dollars on a piece of property that belongs to the Army or Air Force or whoever it
belongs to is a good idea. They did say that they have props at Elmendorf that
could fulfill the Part 139 requirements. That particular prop has some problems
even though it is a propane prop. They cannot get it to work in temperatures
below 30 degrees and there are some inherent safety problems. The Air Force
ordered 40 units and are in the process of putting them in different bases. Ernst
stated he thought there were nine in place now and none are operational. Base
commanders will not allow them to be operated until there are some major work
done on them. They are a life -threatening hazard at this point. They have a long
way to go if they are going to say that Eilision will allow civilian population to use
this as training. This presents a whole new scenario of problems. Ernst stated he
thought the city had a good shot at the facility.
Ernst stated that Bill Booth of Interact and the Chief are in Anchorage today and
tomorrow answering questions of the fire chiefs to try to get them in line with this
AIRPORT COMMISSION APRIL 11, 1996 PAGE 3
MINUTES
proposal. Although, the city doesn't particularly need their approval. The FAA
wants the State DOT to come online and that is what the city is doing now. The
city is preparing for a meeting in Juneau with the Commissioner of Transportation,
the Commissioner of Public Safety and the maintenance end of DOT. Ernst stated
they will do that and prior to that meeting they will go to Ketchikan, Kodiak. While
in Juneau, they will visit the City of Juneau and then visit the cities of Fairbanks
and Anchorage. Ernst stated that when they are done, they will have the state
approval. Ernst stated all the senators, representatives, and governor are in favor.
Once, they do that they hope to put the application in by the first week in June.
Patty Sullivan of the FAA advised Ernst that they would need at least a month to
evaluate the proposal. And, if there is no other proposal, they would possibly start
working on the funding in July and have it ready for FY97 allocation which starts in
October. Ernst stated theoretically they could be breaking ground this time next
year.
Ernst stated they are on the fast track. The Interact Group is working hard. They
will make a few changes to the video such as adding the city's address to the end.
The curriculum will be finished with the brochures. Ernst stated they have two sets
of four each of some of the fire training photos in poster sized photos.
Knackstedt asked about "Air Stairs?" stating they haven't discussed them for a few
months. Ernst stated he needs to speak to the man in Anchorage again and that he
will do that. Ernst stated there is also the possibility that he can get Jim
Bloomenthal who lives right where a lot of stuff is stored in Arizona and he might
be able to get information for them.
6. New Business
a. Airport Budget
Ernst stated that for the Commission's benefit he had submitted the budget that
was submitted to council. At last night's budget meeting the four Airport
Departments were reviewed and the budget as presented stayed intact.
Ernst gave the Commission a quick overview of the budget and explained how
revenues are generated for the airport. Ernst advised there are no major projects
planned this year. The only item of significance is repair work at the northwest end
of the airport fencing needs fixing. The other repair item of note will be replacing
the automatic doors. Knackstedt asked about the large contingency. Measles
explained that it balances revenues with expenses. Ernst stated it is the
unallocated revenues.
Knackstedt asked who put the budget together and Ernst explained that each
Department Head prepares a budget. The Finance Director consults as far as past
revenue trends, past expenditures, etc. Any cuts would have come from the City
Manager level.

b. INTERact Group Proposal
Covered earlier.
7. Airport Manager's Report
Ernst stated in the back of the packet is a pie chart of the last three months
enplanements. Ernst noted that Southcentral is starting to pickup business they are
up to 13 percent from 8 percent the last two months. Ernst stated the figures
reflect a leveling off. Ernst directed attention to a sheet he had handed out. The
current figures are more consistent with 1994 than 1995. Ernst stated that 1995
was the highest year ever. Ernst stated his "gut" feeling is that 1996 will fall
between 94 and 95 levels. Holloway noted last year was a big year. Ernst stated
he thought there was a mystery to it but he guessed it was just the price of the
tickets.
Koerber asked if Ernst could explain what happened in 1985 with the increase in
enplanements. Ernst stated that was a boom year and then dropped dramatically.
Measles stated he thought it could be attributed to Tesoro contract people.

5. OLD BUSINESS
A. Kenai Dunes Park - Dipnet Season Parking/Barricades: Councilman Bookey stated
that there had been some discussion with Council on ideas to control crowds, access
and protecting the dunes during the dipnet season. The Council has made no definite
Harbor Commission
April 8, 1996
Page 1
decisions yet and requested recommendations from the Commission. Commissioner
Eldridge stated that there had been discussion at the last meeting about putting in log
barricades to keep vehicles within designated areas and the feasibility of expanding
the gravel parking area.
Commissioner Moore stated that short of closing off Kenai Avenue and prohibiting
vehicular access, they would only be creating a bottle -neck. He felt there may be a
lot of complaints from people who would be required to walk long distances to
dipnet, though dipnetting will also be open to boats.
Councilman Bookey stated that if there was action done on the south side, then the
north side access would also need to be addressed. Councilman Jahrig stated that if
the road access is closed, then more people will be walking down the bluffs which
will only cause more erosion problems. He felt tying the road access and erosion
problems would be a better way to address the issue. Councilman Jahrig felt if the
concrete pillars could be installed along the roadway it would help both problems.
Councilman Bookey stated that there will be a significant amount of additional traffic
this year because of the 24-hour fishery, unlike in years past.
Councilman Moore addressed concerns about the turnaround area. Kornelis felt that
there was enough room to turn around toward the mouth as long as nobody parks and
blocks the vehicles in. He felt there should be signage put in as to a time limit for
parking and felt they could enlarge the turnaround area some.
Councilman Bookey felt that there should be some mandates put in effect this year
and that the area cannot go unattended as in years past. Commissioner Eldridge
asked if there was an option of having parking on one side of Spruce Street only, at
least until the gravel pads can be put in. Councilman Bookey stated he would like to
see some limitations on the parking this year. Commissioner Jahrig stated that he felt
there should be something done to the turn -around area, some signage, and it should
be patrolled and enforced.
Commissioner Eldridge stated that something also had to be addressed on the south
side, since the Old Cannery Road goes to the beach. Kornelis stated that there was a
section line easement and that he thought there was nothing they could do to restrict
access there. Councilman Bookey that there also was no garbage or restroom
facilities on the south side, but that there is on the north side. Kornelis stated that
these would have to be watched closely if installed on the south side to prevent them
being washed out on high tides.

Councilman Bookey felt that the city docks are going to be inundated, not only with
launchings, but the toilet and garbage needs will be heavily impacted. Freaden stated
that last year the septic was used to the point that it ran the well dry and filled the
filter system with sand, which shut the system down. They also had to have the
dumpsters emptied daily. Councilman Bookey stated that the available manpower
would probably not be adequate. Freaden felt that they may need to bring in
additional porta potties if the system becomes overused. Councilman Bookey stated
he would like to go back to Council with some recommendations on a time limit for
parking at the dock.
Freaden stated he would like to see the skiff tie-up fee raised from $1 to $5. He
stated it was originally set for commercial use, but is going to be used more by the
private users. Commissioner Eldridge asked how the fee schedule gets changes.
Kornelis stated that it could be handled through the City Manager. Commissioner
Jahrig stated that $5 was a reasonable fee, but at what point do they say they are full.
Freaden felt that they could control that pretty well. He was concerned that motor
homes could be a problem though.
Commissioner Eldridge suggested setting a monthly rate of $50 or a $5 daily rate.
Councilman Bookey felt it would have to go to administration and through legal, but
stated he wouldn't be surprised if it didn't go through Council. Commissioner Jahrig
stated that if there was no designation made for commercial use versus private use,
but strictly set the fees on a flat monthly or daily rate there should not be a problem.
Kornelis asked if the launch charge should change. Commissioners Eldridge and
Jahrig both felt the launch fee should stay the same. Councilman Bookey stated he
would take the Commissions' feelings to Council on the fees.
Commissioner Jahrig felt something more stout than logs needed to be used on the
dunes. Kornelis asked if the concrete pillars were to be donated to the City.
Commissioner Jahrig stated that he had discussed it and was confident that they would
be donated.
Councilman Moore was concerned with the aesthetics of the concrete pillars and
asked if it would change the wind pattern thereby creating more problems.
Commissioner Jahrig stated that they would be used as barricades for traffic.
Councilman Moore again suggested closing the road to traffic. Commissioner Jahrig
stated that the people would then just go over the bluffs onto private property and
monitoring would be major problem. Councilman Bookey stated that aesthetics could
be an issue to address. He suggested that Council would probably want to go look at
the pillars first.

Councilman Moore stated that 4-wheelers are also an issue. Councilman Bookey felt
that Council needs to enforce whatever mandates they put into effect. Commissioner
Jahrig stated that no matter what is put in, it will have an impact on the dunes. He
felt that the concrete pillars could always be removed later if something else comes
available later. He felt that if nothing is done, the dunes problem will only get
worse.
Commissioner Eldridge MOVED that the dunes access be restricted by use of pilings
or logs, that parking be restricted to the upper areas until parking in the lower lots
can be accommodated, and that signage be added and enforced. Commissioner
Munn SECONDED the motion and a vote was unanimous in favor.
B. Signs at Boat Ramp - Commissioner Jahrig asked what signage should be installed.
Commissioner Eldridge suggested that the signs could state: DANGER - Beware of
large waves at the mouth. He stated that there should also be a sign for commercial
boat launching preference. Commissioner Jahrig felt uncomfortable with giving
anyone preferential launch treatment, unless it was on an emergency basis. Freaden
stated that if someone came in with web in their wheel that they could move everyone
over and pull the boat out to cut their web, then let them re -launch. Commissioner
Jahrig asked what would happen if a 6-packer came in to take people out to dipnet,
and would they be considered commercial and expect preferential launch. The
commission did not feel any action should be taken to give commercial boats
preferential launch.
6. NEW BUSINESS
Meeting Schedules - Commissioner Eldridge stated that he felt the Commission was required
to meet monthly. Commissioner Jahrig stated that he would be out of town until probably
November and was unsure of how many meetings he would be able to attend. Councilman
Bookey stated that Council suggested monthly meetings, but the Commission can request to
skip a meeting. Commissioner Eldridge suggested just playing it out to see how it goes.
Commissioner Jahrig stated he was unable to commit to how many meetings he would be
able to attend and left it to the Commission to replace him if it became a problem.
7. INFORMATION
ASTF Grant Memo - Kornelis stated that Council had awarded a contract to Nelson &
Associates for the first phase of the grant application process. Councilman Bookey stated
that the dunes project request was still on the books and looked good. He stated that nothing
would be available until after the dipnet season is over, and the Cunningham Park is still a
possibility.

April 8, 1996

Freaden suggested snow fencing could be used to direct traffic on the dunes also. Kornelis
stated that if the pillars were put in with only enough room for foot traffic that fencing would
not be necessary. Councilman Bookey stated that if funding came in, there would eventually
be wooden boardwalks down there.
8. COMMISSIONER COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS
Councilman Bookey stated that Council is still going over the budget. He stated that Council
took a walk down the new ramp at the city dock and that it was well received.
Freaden stated that the main pile under the crane is now cratered and needs to be repaired.
He stated that it has broken loose and is no longer supporting the dock. He felt that the
pilings need to be filled with something to prevent the same problem recurring in the future.
He stated that there are also dents in two other piles and felt they should all be filled.
9. ADJOURNMENT
The next meeting was scheduled for May 6, 1996. Eldridge MOVED to adjourn. Munn
SECONDED the motion. The meeting was adjourned at 8:30 p.m.

6. OLD BUSINESS
A. Library Addition Committee Report - Commissioner O'Reilly left a list for the other
commission members to look over. Commissioner Rodes commented that she did not
feel that the committee would need a facilitator. Commissioner Forbes stated that the
Building Committee has already been doing a lot of what is on the recommended list.
Commissioner Forbes felt that maybe the Commission should come up with some sort
of floor plan and a report to be given to the Council. Commissioner Rodes felt that
the needs and uses for the recommended space needed to be more complete in order
to get the bond issue approved. Commissioner Forbes asked if they would still use
the same architect. Commissioner Peters stated that the same architect would
probably be used and that the Library Addition Committee was intended to get
information together for the public, and to address the community needs. He felt the
surveys would also help in addressing the community's needs. Commissioner Peters
felt it would probably be better to have the Friends of the Library promote
community awareness. Commissioner Forbes asked if there were Friends members
on the Library Addition Committee. Commissioner Brenckle responded that there
were at least two Friends members on the committee. Commissioner Peters suggested
having the Friends put a flyer into the Clarion. Commissioner Forbes felt that the
committee should aim for a final date to address the library needs.
Commissioner Rodes MOVED that the committee bring the Commission a report to
the May meeting for consideration. Commissioner Forbes SECONDED the motion.
Commissioner Benson stated that the Committee is quickly approaching a point of
getting a plan down and should be able to come up with something by the May
meeting date. The Motion was passed with a unanimous vote.
B. List of Accomplishments - Commissioner Forbes stated that she put the list together
from information based on input from Commissioner Heus, Emily DeForest and from
the children's program. This list will be presented at some time to the Council with
the Goals and Objectives. Commissioner Forbes felt it would be a good idea to give
the absent members a chance to review it before making any final recommendations.
Commissioner Peters felt it should be given to the Director and let her present it to
Council. Commissioner Forbes requested that everyone look it over and give he a
call if there were any more additions or changes. Commissioner Brenckle felt it was
well done and well presented.
C. Library User Survey - Commissioner Peters stated that of the 450 surveys sent out to
the Chamber members, none had been returned. He felt that some of the
Commissioners should get together and go over the survey results that had been
received and report back to the Library Addition Committee. He felt that it would
Library Commission
April 2, 1996
Page 2
help the Committee to make their decisions better. Commissioner Rodes asked if it
would be inappropriate to attend the next Chamber meeting and suggest that they
submit their survey forms if they had an interest. Commissioners Forbes, Brown,
and Peters offered to get together and go over the surveys.
D. Other - Commissioner Peters stated that Emily DeForest reported the new mainframe
should be installed in the library on May 6th. Commissioner Brown stated that the
signup sheet was available in the library for volunteering for April Sunday hours.
7. NEW BUSINESS
A. Friends of the Library Report - Since Commissioner Heus was unable to attend the
meeting there was no Friends report.
B. City of Kenai Comprehensive Plan - Commissioner Peters stated that the City is in
the process of updating their Comprehensive Plan. He was not sure what the
proposed statement was. The Commission reviewed the 1992 library statement and
agreed that it needed to be re -worked. Commissioner Rodes suggested that maybe
they should come back to it at next month's meeting. Commissioner Peters stated
that he was not sure that the Council even wanted the Commission to take action, just
to be sure that they reviewed the statement. Commissioner Brown stated that there is
a new statement being worked on. Commissioner Peters stated he would speak to
Emily and try to get the revised version in the next month's meeting packet.
C. Strategic Plan - Commissioner Peters felt that with the Library Addition Committee,
maybe it would be a good idea to come up with a strategic plan. This could also be
used to distribute information to the public for the proposed addition. Commissioner
Brown asked if the 9th and 16th were good dates for the Committee to meet.
Commissioners Rodes and Benson both agreed to the meeting dates. Commissioner
Peters stated he would let Commissioner O'Reilly know that those dates were
acceptable to the Committee members.
Commissioner Peters suggested mentioning to Commissioner O'Reilly the Euclid Plan
and suggest the Committee come up with something like they put together.
Commissioner Benson felt that they were very confident on what they wanted and it
was just a matter of getting it all down on paper. Commissioner Peters was
supportive of getting out the information out to the community. Commissioner
Brenckle suggested having a group of the Friends participate in the July 4th parade
and hand out balloons or something. She felt the biggest selling point was the
services the library provides to the children.

8. COMMISSIONER COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS
Commissioner Brenckle recalled reading that the Homer library has a shelf for local authors
that may or may not have been published. She felt that maybe this could be an idea our
library could consider.
Commissioner Benson stated that it was good to be back and he's looking forward to the
upcoming bond issue.
Commissioner Peters thanked everyone for their input and involvement.
9. ADJOURNMENT
Commissioner Forbes MOVED to adjourn the meeting. Commissioner Brenckle
SECONDED the motion and the meeting was adjourned at 8:45 p.m.

A. Budget - Kayo McGillivray reported that there have been two rounds with the Council
on the budget. There were some cuts in the budget, but no major surprises. Parks
Parks & Rec Commission
April 4, 1996
Page 1
was cut by $2000, there was $40,000 put back into the budget for a restroom at the
Municipal Park. This facility will probably be hooked up to city sewer and water.
There is supposed to be one more session with Council before the budget is finalized.
Councilman Bannock stated that the snow machine and mower were still on the
budget at this time.
B. Playground Equipment - Kayo McGillivray stated that the playground equipment was
approved by Council and will be ordered tomorrow.
Kayo reported that he had also been requested to make changes to the Christmas
lights for this year. There were no plans submitted to Parks and Rec Commission on
banners. There are several of the lights that need to be re -wired. They will be
getting estimates soon on the cost of repair and garland replacement versus the cost of
new lights.
C. Greenhouse - Kayo McGillivray reported that the greenhouse is full and doing well.
They are still watering by hand and hope to get water to the greenhouse later this
year. Kayo would like to eventually install a water heater at some point.
D. Rotary Matching Grant - Kayo McGillivray reported that the Rotary had offered a
grant to the city for Old Town Park improvements. The City agreed to matching
funds. He will be meeting with the Rotary members soon to fine tune the
information.
E. Hockey Rink - Commissioner Sandahl felt that if the City again decides to approach
the hockey rink issue that they should seriously consider the same type of setup as
Nikiski has. Commissioner Castimore felt that because of the cost perspective, it
should be something that they should consider. He felt it was a usable structure for
winter sports as well as for other activities in the summer.
Commissioner Wisniewski stated that he had been involved in two committees for the
ice rink. He felt that the Nikiski facility was also acceptable for what the City wants
and needs. Commissioner Castimore urged everyone to go take a look at the Nikiski
facility if they haven't already done so.
Commissioner Sandahl asked that if any more discussion comes up in the future that
at least the issue be brought before the Parks and Rec Commission for consideration.
Councilman Bannock stated that there is a need for ice, but that these projects keep
ballooning upwards as the scope of the projects increase.

Public Hearring :
Michael Christian, 613 Maple Drive, Kenai —Asked if someone could explain where
the subdivision is.
Walker asked Mr. Penn of Marathon Oil to show it on the map. Mr. Penn showed Tract
A on the map and pointed out Cannery Road off K-Beach Road.
Mr. Christian asked if that was where the well would be. Mr. Penn advised yes. Mr.
Penn advised that there was one well drilled from this location. There are two heater -
treater buildings, and an office building there.
Mr. Penn, Marathon Oil Representative-- Penn advised this permit is the first step
in a long permitting process. Penn advised he is the person to call if there are any
questions.
Bryson asked if there is any discharge proposed onsite? Penn stated of muds and
cuttings no. There will be air emissions but the muds, cuttings, and water will be taken
to the Kenai Gas Field which is just to the south. There is an approved disposal well at
that site, actually two. One for water and one for muds, cuttings, and drilling fluids.
Any waste water from domestic use will be taken away by Town and Country Pumping.
Bryson asked if the cuttings and mud will be contained in a water proof container.
Penn explained that there will be steel tanks for transport to the Kenai Gas Field.
Walker asked Mr. Penn to explain the difference in today's mud systems versus the old
open pit systems. Penn stated basically it is a closed system that reuses and circulates
the mud system. It cleans out any of the debris or additives that might have been put
in. It is essentially a closed system reusing the drilling mud itself goes down the hole
and is circulated. It helps to lubricate the hole for drilling and moving the rock and
fragments up. It also helps as far as a pressure protectant when you are drilling the
hole so if you have high pressure gas or oil it doesn't blow out. They used to use mud
pits. Penn commented that he felt a lot of the legacy and problems on the Kenai had to
do with mud pits and mud was just discharged into a mud pit when it was used and in
most cases covered over and left. Penn stated it rarely happens now but can happen
with DEC approval to allow to discharge muds and leave them in a mud pit. It would
take a special kind of mud and a DEC permit.
Bryson asked if the drilling area was inside an existing fenced area. Penn responded
yes.
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 2
Minutes April 10, 1996
Booth asked is there was a potential for odor problems as result of the air emissions.
Booth asked Penn to explain what kind of emission he was talking about. Penn stated
in this case it will be engine exhaust from the engines that power the drilling rig, diesel
engines primarily. Penn stated that since this is a development well in a known field,
he doesn't anticipate any flaring to determine the productive limits or the economic
limits of it. It can be hooked right up to the existing pipeline. Thus, there should be a
need to flare gas. Penn stated the emissions would primarily be from burning of fuels
for power.
Booth stated he had flew over the area and looked at the road, etc. Booth asked if
moving the rig in would cause traffic problems with the canneries? Penn stated they
don't anticipate it will for a number of reasons. One, the timing which they plan to
start after September and before New Years to miss the summer activity. Second, they
can time the transportation so it creates as little a traffic problem as possible. Penn
commented that they moved a rig further south near Clam Gulch and did it in such a
fashion, one or two loads a day, there wasn't any appreciable traffic problem.
Booth asked if this rig was required to have an Air Quality Permit from the ADEC.
Penn answered yes. Penn added they have submitted their applications to the Division
of Government Coordination who will oversee the coastal zone consistency
determination. The DEC will look at air quality. The Division of Water will look at a
temporary water use permit. There is a well there but they will appropriate water to
use.
Glick stated that on the map it shows a sump pit and questioned if it was old and
wouldn't be used this time? Penn stated yes it was there from the first well that was
drilled, the Cannery Loop No. 1 in possibly 1972. Penn stated it was drilled and never
completed.
Glick said it shows where you will drill No. 5 but on each side it shows 50 foot spacings
for wells. Glick asked if they were there? Penn stated they are future wells. The map
shows that if the field is big enough and they can drill enough wells, there is enough
room to drill on 50 foot spacings. Penn stated he believes the well head that is there
now is just to the left of the where the map says CLU No. 5 and has the square with a
circle in the center.
Werner-Quade commented that the company letterhead says they are environmentally
aware and was curious if the company is a member of Green Star. Penn answered yes
they are in Anchorage but unsure about Kenai.
Walker asked if there were any plans to remove the sump pit that is on the site. Penn
stated the environmental department is investigating the evolving regulations for mud
pit closure in the state now. Penn stated they became operator in January 1, 1995 and
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 3
Minutes April 10, 1996
they are taking over where UNOCAL left off as far as the investigation or any
environmental work that was done. Penn stated he knew they were investigating how
to close the pit, what to do with it, and where to take it. Penn stated he didn't know
about the timing.
Booth asked how long the rig would be onsite. Penn stated it will probably take 4-6
weeks to drill, another week or so to do logs, and then completion of the intervals. It
could take two months and if problems a little longer. Penn stated it is a directional
well and there tends to be problems drilling and getting stuck. Two to three months at
the longest.
Public Hearing Closed.
Bryson asked La Shot on the prior approval for the sump pit if there were any
requirements concerning it's removal. La Shot stated he didn't remember and would
have to check into it.

Public Hearing Closed.
Goecke asked if this was an after -the -fact Conditional Use Permit? La Shot stated he
had no way to tell that but he thinks it could be.
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 4
Minutes April 10, 1996
Glick stated he would like to amend to say that no more than two boats at a time are
allowed to be docked there. Glick stated that he thought they had done that in the past
at Beaver Creek and limited the number of guide boats that are allowed to dock at any
one time. La Shot stated there had been some limitations. La Shot stated that it is his
understanding that Mr. Lowe lives there and has guided in the past. La Shot stated he
doesn't know if his boats were tied up to his property or not. La Shot noted that next
door Lowe's son has an operation. La Shot stated that Lowe had specifically been asked
if he was going to rent any room in his house and he said he didn't want to do that and
didn't want that to be a part of the permit. Evidently, it is just for the guiding and
tying up the boats.
Walker noted the Commission was waiting for a second on the amendment. No second
on the amendment.
Goecke stated he is reasonably certain that this is an after -the -fact type thing and there
is more than three boats or at least three boats tied there. So, the two would have
created a bit of a problem for Mr. Lowe.
Glick stated he did recall that they had limited the number and asked if it was two or
three that were allowed. La Shot stated he couldn't say but could research it.
Bryson stated he does not recall as to a boat limitation on previous action; however,
does feel if they are going to restrict it, Mr. Lowe should be given a chance to comment
on that prior to formalization. Bryson asked if Mr. Lowe indicated a schedule that
required approval at this meeting. La Shot stated it could be clarified and brought back
or continued if the Commission so desired. La Shot noted that the guiding season won't
start until next month. Bryson asked if he felt this was just going to go through as is.
Bryson stated he was wondering why he wasn't here given his prior record. La Shot
stated he is not sure why he didn't come.
Goecke stated the amendment died for lack of a second so the boat limitation is a moot
point.
Walker noted there was still discussion.
Werner-Quade asked for clarification as to who the two Conditional Use Permits on Lot
17 and Lot 8 were granted to? La Shot stated it this was the father. Werner-Quade
commented so they live next door to each other and can have up to 15 boats tied up at
any one time. La Shot stated he couldn't say. Werner-Quade stated that maybe
imposing a boat limitation wouldn't be a bad idea but need to check with the father first
to see how many boats his father is planning to tie up. La Shot stated he didn't feel the
commission had ever come up with a number that they have considered to be
appropriate for any one lot. There has been times that a boat limitation has been
placed in the permit and it went right on through. And, La Shot stated he is sure that
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 5
Minutes April 10, 1996
it has come up in discussion of a couple permits. La Shot stated he could investigate
and ask Mr. Lowe.
GLICK MOVED TO TABLE TO THE NEXT MEETING. SECONDED BY
MAHURIN.
Walker clarified if Glick wished to table the item or continue it to the next meeting.
Bryson noted this is a public hearing item and would support a continuation or a
postponement.
Walker noted that the maker of the motion would change the motion to a
postponement to the next meeting.

c. Proposed Halfway House Ordinance
MAHURIN MOVED THAT IN ADDITION TO CITY ORDINANCE 14.20.325
HALFWAY HOUSES AS SUBMITTED; HOWEVER TO INCLUDE ITEM D, "A
HALFWAY HOUSE MAY NOT BE LOCATED WITHIN ONE MILE OF A PRE-
EXISTING PUBLIC OR LICENSED PRIVATE SCHOOL, A PRE-EXISTING
LICENSED OR ADULT DAY CARE FACILITY, OR 1000 FEET FROM AN
ALCOHOL BEVERAGE DISPENSING OR PACKAGE STORE." MOTION
SECONDED BY BRYSON FOR PURPOSES OF DISCUSSION.
Walker asked for additional staff comment. La Shot stated nothing additional noting
this was put together by the attorney by request.
Public Hearing Opened:
Barbara Nord —Stated she just had a question and wanted to look at the zoning map
and see where there were light industrial, heavy industrial, and general commercial,
and central commercial zones. Walker advised to proceed.
Nord commented that after reviewing the zoning map that because this would be under
a Conditional Use Permit to have a halfway house she would like to know what the
Commission would be using for requirements for conditional. Nord stated she can see
that in some of the general commercial area is close to dense residential areas. Nord,
pointing to the map, stated this area on Beaver Loop, this area in Valhalla Heights, and
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 6
Minutes April 10, 1996
the area here (not sure where she pointed). Nord asked again what kind of conditions
the Commission would place on a Conditional Use Permit.
Walker stated he would answer as best he could. Each Commission that addresses it
will have certain conditions that are the concerns that are addressed by the
neighborhoods and the concerns that each individual at the Commission would have as
well as whatever legal concerns may be addressed as in following codes and supporting
or not supporting certain things. Walker stated from a personal standpoint the only
place he would support approval of a Conditional Use Permit for a halfway house in the
City of Kenai is adjacent to Wildwood. Walker stated that is how he feels at this point
in time unless something was to change his mind. Nord asked if that was Walker as
the Chairman. Walker stated that is his personal opinion and there are seven members
of the board and many people of the public and if substantial evidence was brought in to
convince neighborhoods to accept it, he would accept it. Walker added he has yet to see
one neighborhood in this town that wanted a halfway house in their back yard.
Nord stated that is true and she agrees that is the consensus of this community, that
they don't want it in their back yard. It doesn't matter where you are and it doesn't
have to be just in this town. It can be any place on this peninsula. Nord stated she
hasn't seen very many people who do care to have this in their own back yard. Nord
stated she believes there is a need for a halfway house and that there needs to be a
place to put it. Supporting near Wildwood may be a good idea with the exception of
Chuda House being there and there are elderly people in that area. Usually by the time
people get to a halfway house, they have done their time and they need some place to be
able to get to a point where they can get from where they were to where they should be
back in society. Nord reiterated that she agrees with the proposed ordinance.
Bryson asked if Chuda House is on Wildwood or in the city. Nord stated it is right
behind Wildwood Prison and the only thing that separates the house and prison is a
fence. Nord stated the only way you used to get to Chuda House was through Wildwood
Drive. Bryson stated it is on Wildwood property as opposed to being in the city. Nord
stated it is not actually on Wildwood property and showed where it was on the map. La
Shot stated the new road, Morgan Road, comes in just north of Chuda House.
Public Hearing Closed.
Mahurin stated that as the maker of the motion and with the amendment she is
supporting it for many reasons. Mahurin stated she has been an active opponent to
halfway houses in residential neighborhoods before this Commission before becoming a
member of the board. However, Mahurin noted she believes in the concept of halfway
houses, believes with the comments of the speaker that they are designed for the
residents of Kenai. Mahurin stated she appreciated Mr. Singree when his testimony
came before the board as to why he withdrew his application. As a commission
member, Mahurin stated she wished she could have put an ad in the paper saying
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 7
Minutes April 10, 1996
please support his business because she felt he had the interest of the City of Kenai
before his monetary advantages. Mahurin stated she believes there needs to be some
sort of permissive language in an ordinance to let the city do that. But, by saying that
it is a Conditional Use Permit, that means that it has to be approved. It is not
permitted until approved so they always have that right and the public hearing. The
Borough is in the process of establishing an ordinance. Mahurin stated she had looked
at the language and the Matsu ordinance. Mahurin noted that the amendment that she
added onto it, part D, did come from Mr. Gensel who has also supported the concept.
Mahurin stated she thinks they would be giving a potential permit in an acceptable
area and are covering by adding in where it may not go, pre-existing children and adult
day cares and liquor store. bars, and places like that. Mahurin stated she thinks they
have to allow for that type of facility but keep control. Mahurin stated she sees this
ordinance as a way of doing that.
Werner-Quade noted the amendment that Mahurin made can be found on page 5 of 12
in the back of the packet tonight in the Matsu ordinance. Werner-Quade commented
she thought it was an excellent thing to add into this ordinance and actually is
surprised that a lot more wasn't picked up and added in. Werner-Quade commented
that what was submitted to the Commission from the city attorney is a half page in
comparison with Matsu's ordinance of 12 pages. Maybe some things are being
overlooked; however, the amendment certainly covers where it cannot be. Werner-
Quade added she thought that was really important.
Mahurin stated she was the one who had made the motion and requested that a public
hearing be held before taking a position and with all the controversy going on she is
amazed that the room isn't full like in the past. Obviously, the language that is being
proposed is acceptable to the public or they are trusting the board and that scares me.
Mahurin reiterated she is surprised that there are not more comments.
Bryson stated that his personal opinion runs counter to how he intends to vote, the
people in the city have largely indicated that they didn't want a halfway house in close
proximity to either school facilities or where they were. And, for that reason will be
voting against the ordinance itself. In trying to conform the map from across the table
to a one mile radius from any schools and a 1000 feet from places where alcohol are
sold, Bryson stated he didn't see many areas that would be usable. Certainly, nothing
from the north of town through the central area. That leaves the area out in the bog
which is more than a mile from Swires and East Kenai. Bryson restated his intent to
vote against the ordinance.
Werner-Quade stated she would like to see more in the ordinance drawing attention to
page 11 and 12, No. 1 to have added in the ordinance at the onset. Werner-Quade read,
"a pattern of crimes committed by residents of a permitted facility which are
determined by the Planning Commission to create an unreasonable degree of risk to
public safety may be grounds for revocation of a permit." Werner-Quade stated she
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 8
Minutes April 10, 1996
brought this information in because of some of the public testimony that had been
heard. One from a person who worked at Wildwood and said she had been around for a
long time and they tell you one thing and then 6 to 10 months later down the road,
something shifts and people are being lodged at Wildwood Correctional Facility that
would have never been lodged there in the beginning. Continuing, stated she has the
same concerns that some of the general public had about that these will only be DWI
offenders. Then, over a period of time things seem to shift according to the needs of the
correctional facility and not necessarily the needs of the surrounding community.
Glick asked for a clarification on the amendment as to whether it was one mile or a half
a mile. Mahurin stated one mile. Glick asked if it was 1000 feet or 750. Mahurin
stated 1000 feet. Glick commented that based on that there isn't much area in the city
that could be built so probably your concerns are mute.
Booth stated addressing the comment regarding DWI's only that he recalled in the
presentation by Department of Corrections that one of the questions answered stated it
would not strictly be DWI's but the whole spectrum of people. Booth added that that
was part of the reason the owner of the Merit Inn withdrew his application was because
he could not be assured that all of the people would be DWI's or something of that
nature. On a second note, Booth stated that he agrees with Mr. Bryson that a one mile
radius restricts the areas that a halfway house could be placed. Booth stated that he
didn't know if you put it out by Wildwood that it wouldn't violate the one mile
restriction. Walker clarified that Wildwood was not in the city limits. Booth stated the
question is, is it a mile? Walker stated the city would not have jurisdiction over that.
Bryson commented that Borough requirements would govern in that area. Booth stated
he was trying to address the comment that "out by Wildwood" is where you would
support putting it. Walker stated outside of the city.
Walker called for vote on the amendment to the halfway house ordinance. Mahurin
clarified that her motion was for the entire ordinance. Walker stated there was not an
a through d. Mahurin stated she made her motion to include a "d," which she specified.
Discussion of whether or not this was the correct procedure. Decision made to continue
with motion as made.

Walker asked for additional staff comment. La Shot stated nothing additional.
Walker asked if anyone in the public wished to speak to the item. None noted.
Walker brought back to the commission.
Bryson asked administration if the applicant was aware that there is no water and
sewer on that side of the lot and questioned if they proposed to run a dry operation. La
Shot stated that had never really came up and he didn't know if it would be a
completely self-contained operation. La Shot stated they would make sure they were
aware of that. Kebschull advised that the applicants had discussed the issue with the
Building Official.
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 10
Minutes April 10, 1996
Mahurin stated she was a little uncomfortable with this type of a business as it reminds
her of the Burger Bus and a few other places. This is also on skids, coming in, setting
up on a parking lot. Mahurin stated she has visions of the intersection in Soldotna
where the Sizzler used to be with all the temporary businesses. Mahurin stated her
inclination is to vote no but would like to her other Commission members on this.
Mahurin stated that she also feels if there is one portable espresso business, there is a
dozen. Walker responded there is one. Bryson stated there is one less in Old Town.
Walker commented that there are espresso booths all over Anchorage and all over in
the states. Mahurin stated she lives in Kenai and Walker responded that is true but
Kenai has to grow.
Booth stated he was curious as to what self-contained for the most part means. La Shot
stated his comment was whether there would actually have to be hook ups to the
utilities. But, he feels that has been discussed with the building official so staff will
make sure they are either self-contained or have proper hook up. La Shot stated he
would like to make one more comment. The use is appropriate for this zone and there
was some question as to whether this review even needed to take place because of the
limitation of $10,000. This is a small structure. Administration decided to bring it to
Commission even if close to that figure because we didn't want it to seem like anyone
was doing anything without fulfilling the process. La Shot added he is not sure what
would happen if the Landscaping/Site Plan Review.
Goecke stated he was in fact surprised that this was in the packet being it is in a
commercial zone, and a permitted use. Goecke stated he felt it did not need to be in the
packet. Goecke added that he has no problem with it.
Booth asked La Shot where the business would be located and questioned if it would be
near the property line and obstruct the view as people were driving up and down
Willow. La Shot stated as facing the Merit Inn just to the right in line with the
structure on the right and then there is Alyeska next door. Bryson added where the
paper dumpster is now. La Shot stated they have indicated it will be at least 20 feet
back from the front property edge and that isn't Willow Street. Willow Street may be
another 20 to 40 feet further. Booth noted he had been concerned it might be too far out
and obstruct the vision of people turning in and out of Alyeska.
Mahurin stated she didn't mean to be difficult but noted she had been in negotiations
all day but to call it a Landscaping/Site Plan and note all aspects as not applicable, she
finds it a little difficult. It is an asphalt parking lot.

b. Sign code in Townsite Historic District
Bryson asked administration what they are proposing other than it has problems.
Walker asked La Shot if he would comment.
La Shot stated the Commission has the attorney's comments and the general feeling is
it is not definitive enough. The city would not want to get in a situation of having a
group judgment of a sign that would be placed in this zone without having definite
guidelines in the code. La Shot stated no where does it mention true size. Instead, it
talks about what can be on the sign, if a business, the principal use within a building.
La Shot stated he assumes if it was a restaurant you could only say restaurant/cafe.
Nothing about what is being sold within the business.
Bryson asked if the administration would be bringing back something they felt would
be defendable. La Shot stated if asked to do so, he would. La Shot asked for Kebschull
to comment as she had been at the meeting.
Kebschull commented that as was mentioned at the last meeting it was the TSH
Boards' concern with the cabins going in that they wanted to expedite a code. They felt
that if they put together anything and sent it through, it would start the process. At
that meeting they were told that it was felt it was too subjective. Kebschull added that
she felt they were hoping to get feedback and their intent was at that meeting was to
get feedback from the P&Z Commission. They meet the night before the next P&Z
meeting and they were hoping to come up with another ordinance and present it to you
at that next meeting. Kebschull noted she didn't know if they could do that within
those time lines as it wouldn't fit with being on the agenda as it couldn't be advertised
and we wouldn't have copies for people to access. Kebschull reiterated that was the
TSH Board's intent.
Bryson asked if it would be appropriate to make a motion recommending that
administration bring back a sample ordinance. Walker stated he felt it would
be appropriate.
BRYSON SO MOVED. MOTION SECONDED BY GLICK.
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 12
Minutes April 10, 1996
Walker asked if staff would like to comment. La Shot stated they would try to put
together a document.
Walker asked if anyone in the public would like to address this topic.
Glick stated he would ask staff to work with the TSH Board with they develop the code
as it is developed. La Shot asked when there next meeting was. Kebschull responded
4/23/96.
Walker stated he would like to add that caution should be used in stating in the
ordinance that the sign should be reviewed for historic correctness, scale and character
in keeping with the historic district. Walker commented he has trouble figuring out a
sign that would have historic correctness to sell hamburgers or any number of things
that could go on in that zone. Historic correctness on a sign may be difficult and very
open to interpretation. Bryson commented in 1910 that may be the width of the
building.
Mahurin asked Glick if the motion is saying that we are asking the administration to
work with the TSH Board to revamp an ordinance and bring something more palatable.
Glick stated he had seconded Bryson's motion but he didn't add to the motion legally.
Instead, he had just asked La Shot to do that. Bryson stated his intent is that the
administration use whatever resources are appropriate and definitely feel the TSH
Board is one of those basic resources.
MAHURIN AMENDED MOTION TO HAVE IT SPECIFICALLY SPELLED OUT
THAT THE ADMINISTRATION WILL WORK WITH THE TSH BOARD AS
EXPEDITIOUSLY AS POSSIBLE. MAHURIN NOTED THAT SHE
UNDERSTANDS WHAT THE TSH BOARD IS TRYING TO DO BUT WANTS TO
MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE INCLUDED IN THIS PROCESS. BRYSON
SECONDED THE MOTION.
Walker asked for staff comment on this amendment. La Shot stated no. Walker asked
for public comment; none noted.
Walker commented he will not support this amendment stating he believes staff would
do this expeditiously anyway and feels the Commission should follow the normal chain
of events. Walker stated he is not particularly interested in expediting a sign ordinance
in TSH zone versus anywhere else in town. The sign ordinance city-wide needs
addressing. Walker stated he felt everyone was aware of that and to address it first in
TSH zone or to give that priority and to not put the remainder of the sign ordinance on
the docket he thinks is unfair.
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 13
Minutes April 10, 1996
Werner-Quade stated she will support the amendment noting she feels TSH Board
works really hard to get the few things done that they are able to do due to the fact that
it is very hard for them to even have a quorum on many nights. Werner-Quade stated
she is aware of a lot of the trouble of the TSH Board has had and can see the need for
this type of an ordinance and can see the need for it to be done expeditiously and will
support the amendment.
Mahurin stated the sign ordinance was discussed at last meeting because there was one
on the agenda; however, TSH zone is a very minute part of town as the P&Z
Commission rezoned it. It is a unique part of the town's history and culture. It does
require, in her opinion, a different type of sign, not just on buildings but on several
other types of historical signs, street signs, etc. Mahurin stated when she was on the
TSH Board some of the plans that we hoped would come to fruition for the area.
Mahurin stated she also thought that they have never been faced before with a major
commercial undertaking like is going in there. Though, being in favor of that and it
was approved by this board, it is raising some questions that haven't had time to be
considered. Thus, stated she understands the need to try to bring something along.
Mahurin stated she agrees with the Board that what came before them tonight had a
lot of problems so is hoping that the amendment to work with the TSH Board will bring
this about.
Booth asked if there was an estimate of the timeline for this requirement or an urgency
of this or if the TSH Board is working against the wall on something. Walker stated
that if the TSH Board works on it at their next meeting. Then that would mean the
P&Z would work on it at the meeting after next and perhaps approve it at the
subsequent meeting after that and then send it to council for an ordinance change.
They would have to introduce it and then on a subsequent meeting they could pass it.
Walker stated he felt they were looking at 90 days minimum or even 120 days provided
it doesn't come up for reconsideration at any of these bodies. Booth stated his question
is if the TSH Board was against a deadline for addressing this rapidly. Walker stated
they may feel some urgency in as much as trying to stop somebody from doing
something that is already in process.
Mahurin stated to piggyback on Mr. Booth, there is a concern that the TSH Board
wants to see a development like that. Some of the people involved, based on their past
experience with coming before this board, have put large things upon their property,
being buildings or other things. Mahurin stated she felt they were trying to possibly
avert some abuse. Their intent is to be positive.
Goecke stated he thought they were putting a lot of credence in what the TSH Board is
saying. The TSH Board when it was in it's infancy could not come up with any
definitive plan. Goecke stated he does not know how many of the original members of
that board are even still on that board and thinks this may be a typical knee-jerk by a
couple of people that are against anything that may happen in that area. Goecke stated
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 14
Minutes April 10, 1996
he has a real problem with this. Do we tell staff that they must do this as expeditiously
as possible? Goecke stated he didn't think so, they will not put in on the back burner.
Let's let them work on it and bring it back. Goecke stated to instruct them that they
have to fast track it, he doesn't buy.
Werner-Quade stated she understood the amendment and didn't think it was
unfavorable to staff in anyway. She felt it was favorable to TSH Board. They have a
goal. They wish to accomplish it and they would like this to happen before summer.
Werner-Quade held up a picture and asked if anyone remembered them. She explained
they were the Vozar stand in Old Town. Werner-Quade stated she had saved the
pictures for a good reason and that is that Mr. Vozar came before P&Z with a building
that was double the size that it was originally intended to be. TSH Board has a lot of
responsibility and maybe this is the only way that they know to get this through.
Werner-Quade stated that she didn't feel that they should be in any way made to suffer
for that and thinks that as a Commission that reviews TSH that they should be as user
friendly and helpful as possible. Especially, given some of the history in the area.
Walker stated that they should also remember that they had required the
aforementioned parties to come in for a permit to put artwork in their yard as a
structure. Walker commented that he still didn't consider a Beluga whale a structure.
Walker asked for amendment to be read and Kebschull stated she couldn't decipher the
notes. Walker asked Mahurin to restate the motion. Mahurin stated she recalled to
request that the city administration work with TSH Board as expeditiously as possible
to come up with an ordinance to bring back to the P&Z Commission. Walker asked if
the second concurred and Bryson stated yes.

8. OLD BUSINESS:
a. Proposed Residential Zone (Michael Christian)
Kebschull advised the Commission that 8a was the information provided for the work
session.
Walker stated that prior to asking for a motion would like to ask staff why this item
was on the agenda. La Shot stated that it was on the agenda in case any action was
needed to be taken on the work session. Kebschull added that staff needs direction as
to what steps to take.
Walker stated they are reviewing the work session and would open the item to the
Commission as to direct staff.
GLICK MOVED THAT STAFF BE ASKED TO FOLLOWUP ON WHAT WAS
DISCUSSED IN THE WORKSHOP WITH THE PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL
ZONE AND BRING BACK A PROPOSAL WITH THOSE ITEMS
INCORPORATED. MOTION SECONDED BY MAHURIN.
Walker asked for staff comment. La Shot stated no.
Walker asked Mr. Christian if he had comments. Christian stated there were a number
of items that were in the original proposal that did not show up in the staff report.
Christian stated he didn't know if they had been addressed. Walker asked Mr.
Christian to approach the microphone.
Michael Christian —Stated he did not sure if all the development requirements that
were in the original proposal were addressed in the staff report and wanted to make
sure that they were also reviewed and that they weren't left out of consideration.
Christian listed: Lot size came up but there was no consensus.; connect with sewer and
water; underground utilities; streets would be paved with gutters; should be at least
two street accesses to each subdivision rather than a single one that could cause trouble
in an emergency; the preservation of at least 35 percent of mature trees on lot or
landscaping if there are no trees to begin with; paved accesses to each lot; street
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 16
Minutes April 10, 1996
lighting with overlapping beams; to not allow any vegetation to be buried on the
property; and equipment storage not being allowed.
Walker asked Christian regarding the 35 percent of mature trees how would this be
possible with the spruce beetle infestation. Christian stated that is why they put in the
landscaping provision.
Bryson stated that he thought administration had reasons for not including them on
the draft that was brought back and would request that at the next meeting they could
address those item by item with rationale as to why they were excluded.
Werner-Quade stated it was her understanding there would be a cost breakdown
associated with some of these items and that a number of these would be costs passed
onto the developer.
Bryson commented that in the past in the Kenai area when you have a lot that is
extremely expensive it has had some attribute that justified the cost that the owner
would spend for it. Usually along the bluff in proximity to view properties and these
are proposed to not be that situation. Bryson stated he feels that they are creating a lot
requirements that are so expensive that the type of person that can afford a custom
house is not going to live in them. They will go to the bluff. It is a pretty exclusive
person who would be able to buy a house like this.
Booth stated he would like to address Bryson's comments. Stated he felt Bryson had a
point; however, this ordinance could be instituted on the bluff. For example on Toyon
Way there was a large house built there and then it was sold. Then, a duplex was built
on the right side and a small home on the left side. Personally, he thought there was a
cost difference between those two homes and it lowered the value of the large home and
raised the value of the small homes. Booth stated he thought that this was one of the
things this ordinance is trying to prevent.

b. Enhanced 9-1-1 Mapping and Addressing Project
Walker stated there was a list and staff was asking for comments.
Bryson asked if the recommended official names were the names that the city is
presently utilizing. La Shot stated not necessarily. La Shot stated the first column is
what is on the city address map and generally what the post office is using for names.
The second column is the official name as the borough recognizes. The next is other
alias names that could be used. Some of those may be what is on the sign. Any one of
those could be on the actual street sign and the Street Department is checking that
now. There will be a number of changes no matter what is done.
Bryson stated Item 18, the recommended name doesn't have a tag.
Bryson asked Item 48, what was proposed?
Walker questioned Item 24, are you proposing any names? La Shot stated that is not a
platted right of way and is on private property and is not sure why it is on the list. La
Shot stated it is not one the city can recognize or name.
La Shot stated the staff will clean up items for the public hearing and that there is no
action that needs to be taken tonight. La Shot stated that as other comments are
received those changes may need to be made.

b. Borough Planning

addressed items within the City of Kenai regarding sale of certain lands obtained by the
Borough. There were lands within the city and they have proposed borough
classifications. Those are addressed by list as 12-A. One plat was considered within
the city. That was the Original Townsite of Kenai which was elimination of a lot line
which was approved.

La Shot commented that in regards to code enforcement, the situation at First and
Birch the people have been spoken. They still deny operating a business from their
property or storing junk cars. They are well aware of the community's feelings
regarding the situation, they have copies of the code, and they have done some cleaning
up of the property last weekend. They said they will try to keep it looking better and
tone down the activity that has been going on there. Walker stated they are in fact
operating a business out of there. La Shot stated they denied that. Walker stated he
has personal knowledge on that. La Shot asked if he had proof.
Kebschull advised that Carol Freas, City Clerk, asked everyone to remember their
conflict of interest forms which are due by April 15th and that she would not be at the
next meeting.
11. PERSONS PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED:
Michael Christian, 613 Maple Drive —Stated he had a question about the Mapco
sign article in the paper. The question was the threat to use the building as a sign and
wondered if there is any way the commission could address that as a problem in the
future. Christian stated he was concerned as they had gone through a process and been
turned down and now they are threatening to find a loop hole.
Booth stated he did understand that Mapco did do that in Juneau when they moved in.
Juneau had sign restricts and so they built an oversized building so they could get a
two story Mapco sign. Booth noted he has not seen this first hand.
Walker asked La Shot if the business was outside of the Landscaping/Site Plan as
presented to this body, could it be brought up for review. La Shot stated that could be
done. He added that he thought Mr. Christian was alluding to the fact if they could do
something with signage on the building that is not covered by the sign code to
circumvent the permit. They could. The city's sign code on regulates free standing
signs. Wall marquee and roof signs are not covered. Walker stated he was under the
impression that most of the zones that signs are placed on a house are in fact regulated.
Christian stated he had read in the paper regarding the logging the city had proposed
and there were no bids. Christian stated there were quotes from the city that they may
reduce the requirements to get this logged. First, Christian asked where it is and also
the comment that there may be a loosening of the restrictions on how the trees may be
removed.
La Shot stated the property is Denaina Point Estates which is bluff property between
the bluff and the highway in Section 36. The logging was merely for clearing of right of
Planning & Zoning Commission Page 19
Minutes April 10, 1996
ways and removal of bug infested trees. The loggers involved felt the restrictions were
not economical. What the Public Works Director meant by loosening the restrictions,
La Shot stated he was not sure what will be proposed.
Christian asked if these were public access right of ways. La Shot stated they are
platted right of ways and noted they could be seen on the map noting that not all of the
area is owned by the city. This will only involve city -owned property. Bryson
questioned how they came up with the 50 some acres rather than 4 or 5. Is that the
gross area? La Shot stated that is what the city owns including right of ways and
actual parcels. The only trees to be logged on the parcels on the bugged, dead, and
dying. Restrictions were that stumps would be cut off level with the ground or pulled
and all waste material be hauled away and not burning. These were felt too restrictive.
Normally, it is common to burn onsite and it is not common to pull stumps. It could be
common to cut off near ground level. Pulling stumps and burning probably will not
make a logging operation viable.

4. PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD:
VL•m
5. OLD BUSINESS :
a. Goals & Objectives for 1996
Hett stated that the goals and objectives were included in the packet as they had
not been formally approved. Hett asked for additions or changes to the list.
Swarner commented that the Council had decided they did not want new banners.
Swarner stated the group could still work on it. In addition, Council would like
feedback on the Christmas decorations. Hett noted that banners were included
under Old Business. Hett stated she had spoken to someone who had advised that
Council wanted someone to take the process for new banners from start to finish.
Hett stated that if that is something the Committee wanted to do in the next year,
it would be time to start working on it for next year. Swarner stated she felt that
this group was the only group in place who would work on getting new banners.
Frates stated that he felt it had gotten dumped on the group and that in the
minutes from years ago the banner "thing" had been a fiasco since the mid-80's.
Frates stated that he felt that if they could get the Christmas lights in order, then
maybe next year Council may be willing to fund new banners.
Hett asked if banners should be changed to banners/whole decorations like
Christmas, etc. on the list of goals. Frates commented that he felt they could be in
the process of working on banners. Swarner stated it could be added as a new
goal.
Hett asked for any other changes or comments. Swarner commented that
regarding the Garden Tour pamphlet that they had a color copy made at the copy
place by Malstons and it was $2.50 per copy. Swarner noted they had only two
copies done and it was color on both sides. Swarner commented that this may be
a consideration in planning the pamphlet.
Hett asked if anyone would like to make a motion to adopt the goals and
objectives.
NINA SELBY MOVED TO ADOPT THE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. MOTION
SECONDED BY BARB NORD. UNANIMOUS.
b. Theme 1996
Hett advised that the theme had never been voted on and asked if anyone wished
to make a motion to do so. Swarner clarified what the theme was.
BARB NORD MOVED TO ACCEPT THE THEME AS WRITTEN. MOTION
SECONDED BY SYLVIA JOHNSON. UNANIMOUS.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 2
APRIL 9, 1996
c. Green Star "Adopt A Neighborhood" Program
Hett stated that Shirley Levias of Green Star had presented information to the
group earlier on the program. Hett added that she had put it on the agenda so they
could be brought up to date on the program.
Frates stated he felt that there had been a misunderstanding with Levias. Frates
noted that they had thought Levias had stated the fanny packs were free but they
are not free. Frates stated he thought she had meant they were free to the citizens
but the agency has to purchase the packs. Frates advised he had contacted Barb
Campbell in Anchorage who leads the volunteer program in Anchorage. In
discussing the program with Kayo, Frates advised they had missed it for this
budget. Kayo had brought up a good idea which Anchorage, as shown on the
pack, uses sponsors to fund the program. Frates stated he felt that might be an
approach to pursue whether it be UNOCAL or Phillips. Frates stated it will not be a
big expense, maybe $600 for 1000 bags.
Selby asked what is inside the pack. Frates explained that Anchorage keeps track
of all the volunteers. They come to the recreational facility in Anchorage and they
sign up and in return they get the packs. Volunteers can sign up to adopt a park or
a trail or even a neighborhood. Frates noted that Mayor Mystrom started the
program in Anchorage. Frates stated volunteers can get the packs at no charge
and when they are out and about they pick up trash. The packs contain trash bags
and rubber gloves. Frates commented he felt it was a neat idea.
Hett asked if there was any problem with someone sponsoring a city program such
as this. Frates stated he didn't think so but felt bad noting the companies are hit
hard for donations. Frates added that he felt that someone that has a concern for
the environment such as UNOCAL and some of the other major oil companies could
see this as a good promotion for their company.
Selby asked how long they keep the packs? Frates stated until they lose them,
they are theirs to keep.
Hett commented that they had talked about garbage pickup. Frates advised he had
talked to Campbell about that also. And, it is something that is hard to patrol or
oversee. Frates added he wouldn't want a situation where everyone was bringing
trash to the Rec Center because they don't have the means to accept it. As for
incentives, Frates stated he guessed they were doing it out of pride for their
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 3
APRIL 9, 1996
community. And, if that isn't enough, perhaps another approach could be tried.
Frates commented that Anchorage had just ordered another 8000 bags. That
shows how the program is taking off in Anchorage. They constantly have Boy
Scouts coming in for packs.
Hett asked how the packs are distributed? Frates stated anyone can come and sign
up. Selby commented they wouldn't hold a lot of trash. Frates clarified that they
contain trash bags. Frates commented that perhaps the Chamber and Alpar could
provide the bags but they may be too big. Swarner commented they do not fold
easily.
Hett asked if this information has been before the Parks and Rec Commission.
Frates stated that he will take it after the group decides how they want to proceed.
Frates commented that perhaps the group needed to attempt to locate a sponsor.
Hett asked if anyone would like to make a motion to that effect.
MARILYN DIMMICK MOVED THAT THE GROUP ATTEMPT TO SECURE A
SPONSOR FOR THE PROGRAM. MOTION SECONDED BY NINA SELBY.
UNANIMOUS.
Swarner asked if the group meant that they were going to ask Parks and Rec if
they agree to this concept. Swarner asked who will actually do the looking for a
sponsor. Hett stated she felt that is something the group could do. Dimmick asked
if any of the Parks and Rec Commission had connections that may help. Frates
commented that some of those people may have some connections being in the
area a long time. Dimmick stated she wondered if anyone worked for one of the oil
companies. Frates stated he didn't think they did. Hett stated there are a number
of places that can be approached such as banks. Frates stated someone may
approach First National. Dimmick added someone should ask the new bank noting
she is involved with them on another project. Swarner stated if a sponsor is
obtained, she feels it will have to fall on an employee to look. Hett stated she
wouldn't mind helping. Swarner stated she felt they needed to get it clear who
would be looking for the sponsor. Hett stated she felt that if the Beautification
Committee decided to do it, it is more likely to get done than passing it on to the
Parks and Rec. Nord added that Bob Sizemore at the new bank is good about
volunteering to do a lot of things. Selby asked if he was in Kenai and Swarner
stated at the new Bank of America. Dimmick stated they have a corporate policy
to do this kind of thing, to sponsor locally. Frates commented that a lot of local
organizations have money to earmarked for this kind of activity.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 4
APRIL 9, 1996
Hett commented it is her understanding that the Chamber is not interested. Nord
asked Frates where he got the $600 figure. Frates stated it depends on the volume
that is purchased and shared a catalog he had brought to the meeting. Frates
noted that this is just one source and is sure there are other sources. Swarner
noted that they would need to include the price of gloves and bags. Frates stated
initially for the bags and then people could supply their own bags.
Nord asked once they had the packs who would implement the program or where
would people sign up? Frates stated that would be something the staff at the Rec
Center could handle. Hett added that there would need to be advertising that could
hopefully be done through public service announcements with the radio stations
and the Clarion.
Hett asked if there were any other questions. Frates commented that Anchorage,
as an incentive, in the parks and along the trails they place plaques that list the
volunteers names. Campbell noted that some people want to be recognized and
other people don't. Hett asked about the Park Bucks they had discussed
previously. Frates stated she talked about that with Anchorage and Park Bucks in
Anchorage are collecting dust; they haven't implemented using them yet.
d. Banners
Hett stated in February there was a motion to spend $4,000 on banners and that
was vetoed by Council. Now, the group needs to decide if they want to pursue
banners as a committee. Hett stated she thought the problem was that no one
was willing to select and design the banners and find the funding. Selby asked
where they would find funding? Hatt stated from the city but they would need to
go through the entire process and no one has taken that up at this point. Selby
stated she thought they were going to do that once before and before they got to
do anything, the city had gotten banners. Selby noted she didn't want to go
through that again. Hett asked Selby if she would be interested in going through
books and looking at designs and getting costs. Selby noted she wouldn't be able
to do it until she returned from vacation. Hett stated that would be fine and she
thought now would be the time to start instead of in the fall. Selby stated she will
be back the 27. Hett stated she has some books and asked if a couple of the
group would like to get together. Hett noted that companies will design the banner
for them if an idea is come up with. Hett stated they had a beluga whale done that
looks kind of like a dolphin. Hett noted they were in Seattle without a picture
which could be the reason. Frates stated he felt it would be a worthwhile project.
Selby stated she would like someone to work with her. Nord volunteered to help.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE S
APRIL 9, 1996
Frates commented he felt it would be a nice break for the group to discuss
something other than flowers.
6. NEW BUSINESS:
a. Greenhouse Christening
Hett stated the group may want to incorporate the christening with the volunteer
orientation. Hett noted this might entice people to come and they wouldn't have to
have two separate functions. Dimmick asked if that was the function scheduled in
a week and a half. Swarner stated that is a volunteer reception at the Visitor's
Center. Hett clarified they were separate functions. At the orientation last year
they had cookies and coffee, Merle Dean showed slides, and everyone signed up
for beds. Hett noted that it went really well.
NORD MOVED TO HAVE THE GREEN HOUSE CHRISTENING WITH THE
VOLUNTEER ORIENTATION. MOTION SECONDED BY DIMMICK. UNANIMOUS.
Swarner asked when the function would be held. Hett stated that last year it was
held on May 1 m which was a Tuesday. Hett stated she knew the room was open
on April 30" which she believed was a Tuesday. Frates asked what happened with
the idea of holding it at Merle Dean's house. Hett stated that is another option.
Dimmick asked where she lived? Hett stated on K Beach Road. Dimmick asked if
people would be as likely to go? Group consensus that they didn't feel people
would be as likely to attend. Hett stated she would rather see Merle Dean have
one in the spring when her gardens are in bloom. Swarner commented that if you
are going to christen the green house, it should be close to the green house.
Johnson asked how you christen a green house. Frates stated he has been
wondering the same thing. Dimmick suggested breaking a sack of fishy peat over
the side.
Hett suggested starting at City Hall at 6:30 and then proceed to the green house
around 7 p.m. Hett asked for suggestions. Frates asked if a half hour would be
enough time at City Hall. Hett added she has not spoken to Merle Dean to see if
she is available on the 30'. Frates commented that last year went well and
thought the shorter the better. Hett suggested starting at 7 p.m. and then going to
the green house after about 45 minutes. Hett asked if everyone could do it on the
30'. Swarner asked if they thought more people would come at 7 p.m. instead of
6:30 p.m.? Hett said she thought so. Swarner clarified then to set it for 7 p.m.
and then move to the green house at 7:45 or 8 p.m.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 6
APRIL 9, 1996
Hett stated that last year she sent out flyers to all of last year's volunteers and all
the previous volunteers. Hett noted she has all the addresses on the computer.
Swarner noted that cable t.v. could be contacted for public service announcement
as well as KSRM and the Clarion.
Selby asked what they do at the orientation noting she wasn't at it last year. Hett
stated that last year they had cookies and coffee and then Merle Dean did a slide
show. Then, there was a sign up table for signing up to take care of the beds.
Swarner asked if they wanted cookies for the night. Hett asked if the city could
provide them or should the group bake cookies. Hett stated they could each bring
a dozen cookies. Dimmick stated she would bring something other than cookies as
they are unable to eat sweets adding that she usually brings cheese and fruit.
Selby noted that would be better that cookies. Hett noted that everyone should
bring something.
Swarner advised the group that if they locate volunteers between now and the
volunteer reception on the 22"d, be sure to invite them to the reception on the 22nd.
Hett stated they would need a motion for the volunteer orientation.
DIMMICK MOVED TO HOLD VOLUNTEER ORIENTATION ON APRIL 30"' AT 7 P.M.
MOTION SECONDED BY NORD. UNANIMOUS.
b. Gardening Pamphlet
Hett stated if they want to do a pamphlet, they need to decide on a format noting
there are a couple of different options. Hett advised the group could go into a work
session and discuss this without parliamentary procedure or continue.
Selby asked if there were samples available. Frates shared some pamphlets he had.
Selby asked who would read all of that information. Frates showed one that is
provided at the green house in Anchorage showing a list of all the flowers. Frates
showed another pamphlet that is more specific and provided at the Chamber for the
downtown bed by the cabin, the library, etc. Hett stated that at last meeting they
decided to concentrate on the bed at the Chamber or Visitor's Center this year.
Hett asked if some of the group would like to get together outside of a meeting to
plan a format, etc. Hett added she would be willing to do that. Dimmick stated
she would be willing to help noting she had just toured a garden in Fort Bragg,
California, and she had brought back a brochure.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 7
APRIL 9, 1996
Hett listed the committee as herself, Linda Overturf, Marilyn Dimmick, and Bob
Frates and noted they will get together and bring ideas back to the next meeting.
Frates stated it would be nice to have at least color on the cover. Selby
commented they provide a brochure in Homer. Hett stated she would get a copy of
their brochure. Selby stated it is plain but it tells about all of the plants in the
garden.
c. Sale of Starter Plants
Hett stated that at the last meeting they had discussed the sale of starter plants
and Swarner was to have checked with the city attorney to see if it was legal.
Swarner stated she had forgotten to check with the attorney. Hatt asked if
Swarner could check for the next meeting. Swarner stated she will not be at the
next meeting so will send a note.
d. Volunteer Orientation
Discussed under 6a.
7. REPORTS:
a. Chairperson
Hett stated the group desperately needs two more members. Hett commented that
Nord's neighbor, Ginger, is a possibility. Hett asked Nord if she knew her and could
approach her. Nord stated she would do that. Hett stated just to let Carol Freas or
Kebschull know the name and address and they could send an application. Hett
commented she thought as long as they were within the city limits they would be
accepted. Kebschull advised the application would need to be approved by City
Council. Hett stated it usually isn't a controversial appointment. Hett added for
the group to think of people they would like to work with and noted that men
would be welcome. The only stipulation is that they live in the city limits.
Dimmick advised she would be working at the Home Builders Show next weekend
and it occurred to her it would be nice for the committee to have information at the
show and a place to sign up. Hett stated she thought there was a substantial fee.
Dimmick stated perhaps they could get space at someone's booth. Swarner stated
she wondered if Bank of America would have a booth and Nord advised First
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 8
APRIL 9, 1996
National has a booth. Dimmick advised she would be there for Pickle Hill. Swarner
commented it would be nice to have a picture and a sign saying, "Sign up please."
Hett asked if the master gardeners were doing anything. Swarner stated Tom Janz
was at the Village Fair. Swarner said someone should call and ask and Hett said
she would call. Hett noted she has lots of photos.
Swarner asked where the city's cubicle for hanging pictures was and Kebschull
advised she was unaware of it. Swarner stated the city had purchased a display
but didn't know how big it is.
b. Parks & Rec
Frates advised the budget to this point is pretty much as Kayo had submitted.
Frates reported that the petunias in the green house were a near disaster. Frates
stated they will need to buy petunias. Frates added that Merle Dean's are doing
fine which leads him to believe it was the type of soil used. The soil dried out
quicker and not having a water source, they dried out. There were a few that
made it. Frates added that everything else is taking off and the geraniums look
really good. Frates stated if anyone is interested on the way home, most are at the
Teen Center if anyone wants to look at them. Overturf asked if there were buds on
them and Frates stated no. Overturf asked what kind of fertilizer would they use to
make the buds come out so early. Frates stated he is using 20-20-20 and thinks
that is what Merle Dean uses. Frates asked if anyone knew once they are bloomed
out, how often to fertilize. Nord stated she fertilized every time she waters with a
diluted solution. Nord commented that she had trouble with her petunias this year
too and it was a specific variety so she gave up on it. Frates stated the White
Dreams came up fine with 80 percent germination. Nord asked if Frates had gotten
single ones with white edges and Frates stated no.
Frates noted they are beginning to put together summer crews and looks like 14
kids this summer. Swarner noted the hours will start earlier. Frates noted they got
400 additional hours in the budget. This allows them to put on a couple
youngsters earlier and then keep them later. Frates stated this was a strategic plan
as they were not adding any personnel. They just added the hours.
Hett advised that Margaret Simon wants to volunteer at the green house. Hett
added that she had her number. Frates stated that reminded him that he has a
helper at the green house. She is there through the state welfare. Her name is
Zeta Carter. Frates noted she has been a wonderful help. She is there everyday.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 9
APRIL 9. 1996
Frates stated they may want to contact her in regards to the committee vacancies.
Nord asked when they would be getting water to the green house. Frates stated
they were hoping by mid -summer. Nord asked how far away the connection was.
Frates estimated 400-500 feet. Swarner questioned if there was water in the shop
building and Frates stated yes, the middle building. Frates re -estimated 200 feet.
Nord stated it may be worthwhile to buy some hose. Frates stated that had
crossed his mind until he bought a 2 gallon sprayer and since he has had that he
hasn't had any problems.
c. Council
Swarner reported they are supposed to be working on Christmas decorations and
asked for the groups ideas. Swarner stated the Council thought to try something
new and not to go back to the wrap around garland. Hett asked what other
options there were. Swarner stated she didn't know. Frates advised Kayo is
working on that. Frates added that he hasn't seen anything different from the
garland to the straight lights. Swarner asked if the group had a preference for the
color of light bulbs versus white. Dimmick stated she prefers white. Swarner
asked Dimmick if she liked the white and she agreed.
Swarner advised that next winter the Mayor in Kenai wants to follow what the
Mayor of Anchorage did with the City of Lights. Swarner added that the Fourth of
July parade would have lights. Discussion about not being able to see lights then.
Swarner stated it may be another time. Swarner added that there will be a
promotion about lights in the city this winter. Dimmick stated that if you don't
have white lights, they need to make sure there is a good mix of color. Hett stated
it is difficult to get white lights because there is such a run on them and there may
be a problem with the limited retail stock. Frates noted the problem they had was
they couldn't find the size of lights anywhere.
Frates reiterated that Kayo is working on pricing for rewiring and garland. Swarner
commented that that was the other idea that council had was to have a private
contractor put new wiring in the decorations the city has. The frames are okay it is
just the wiring that needs to be replaced.
Swarner stated that was all she had to report. There will be another budget work
session tomorrow night. Beautification has already been taken care of in the
budget.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 10
APRIL 9, 1996
Swarner reminded the group of the volunteer reception on the 22nd from 6 to 8
p.m.
8. QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS:
Overturf advised she had been asked to suggest plants to put into the cement
planters in front of the middle school and asked if the group could make some
suggestions. Discussion ensued and some of the suggestions included: Arabus,
Yarrow, Iris, Tulips, Columbine, Vernacular, and Lupines.
Johnson stated that she had noticed playground equipment in the budget and
commented that she had brought it up a year ago that benches in the area of the
senior housing would be nice. Johnson commented that there is no place to sit
down on the north side and the some of the residents are not able to walk that far
without resting. Johnson stated she had spoken to Pat Porter and she said the
money would have to come from Parks and Rec.
Frates stated money was appropriated for benches but they were charted to go to
Municipal Park. Frates stated he always thought it would be a good idea to put
benches at Leif Hansen Park.
Swarner stated that they haven't had anyone come before for Eagle Scout awards
and noted that this would be an appropriate project for them.
Johnson reiterated that when it's sunny the seniors love to get outside but there is
no place, except on the south side of the building, to sit. Johnson said a lot of
times they will just go stand outside in the parking lot where it is warm.
Swarner stated her neighbor is active in the boy scouts and she will call him
tonight. Swarner asked if there were any other projects anyone could think of for
Eagle Scout projects. Johnson stated she was thinking 6 benches.
Nord asked if the rule about the 5 percent vegetation being left on city property
was still in effect. Nord stated she was looking at Mapco and they have left only
three trees. Nord noted that wasn't city property. Swarner asked if there was a
site plan approved and Kebschull advised yes. Kebschull stated it showed on the
site plan shrubbery and grass islands and advised that the plans were available if
anyone wanted to view them. Nord stated it may be a little too soon to make a
complaint.
BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE MINUTES PAGE 11
APRIL 9, 1996
Hett asked what is in plan for landscaping on that whole corner. Swarner stated
that Mapco had a site plan which had to be filed with Planning and Zoning. Hett
commented that they were tearing up the whole area again. Swarner asked if she
was referring to the Highway Department and Hett answered yes. Swarner advised
she didn't know. Hett commented that on Bridge Access there is that little island
which would be a nice place to put flowers; however, they may be digging it up
again.

ITEM B: SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENT
1684-96 from the
motion. There
Keith Kornelis - Mr. Kornelis referred to information he
distributed at the beginning of the meeting in regard to the
Kenai Boys Basketball Washington Trip. Kornelis explained, each
year the basketball coach, Jim Beeson takes a group of KCHS boys
basketball players out of state to participate in a basketball
training camp. This year, they want to attend a basketball camp
and play in two tournaments.
In order to earn money to pay for their trip, the boys would like
to clean City of Kenai parking lots, picking up trash, cigarette
butts, move bike racks, etc. They would be using their own
brooms, etc. and would have adult supervision at all times.
Kornelis added, the boys would rather work for their earnings,
instead of asking for donations. They are requesting to be paid
$4.00 to $5.00 per hour.
Buildings they would clean around would be the Public Safety
Building, City Hall, Library, Rec Center, Senior Center, Vintage
Pointe, Airport Terminal, short and long-term parking areas,
employee parking area at the Terminal.
Kornelis stated he discussed the project with Mark Hodgins and
EDD in regard to insurance coverage for the boys. He has been
told, EDD could amend the insurance policy to cover the workers
for this contract.
City Manager Manninen asked if Stan Steadman (EDD) said they
could provide the Workers' Comp. insurance from the Handy Works
contract. Kornelis answered yes, and added, Steadman said they
could amend the Handy Works contract and with city's approval,
other work could be done on that contract. Kornelis added, he
spoke with Mark Hodgins and he had no problems in working it out.
An actual amendment to the contract would not be made until after
council approves it.
Smalley stated he liked the proposal but was concerned as to how
a similar project could again be used as a fund raiser. Smalley

added, he would like to have a direct statement as to who would
be the insurer before any work is done.
Ernst was asked if the airport already had a janitorial contract
and whether this might interfere with the contractor. Ernst
stated the janitor's contract directs the contractor to clean up
trash around the building on a daily basis. He did not think
this would interfere with the contractor. Additionally, the boys
would not be cleaning on the air side of the apron.
Councilman Moore stated he assumed the boys would be doing
something that city employees have done in the past. Kornelis
stated it is usually done later in the summer by the Parks crew.
Kornelis added, the work done would have to completely satisfy
the department head in charge of the building.
Smalley referred to Item D on the Kornelis material and stated he
was concerned the boys would be asked to do work above and beyond
what is in the contract. Smalley suggested setting aside an
amount of money for a set amount of work. Kornelis stated there
was no need for concern.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for approval of the project and
Councilman Bannock SECONDED the motion.
Councilwoman Swarner stated she agreed there should be written
notice the boys would be covered by the EDD insurance.
VOTE:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
ITEM C: PUBLIC HEARINGS
C-1. Ordinance No. 1682-96 - Increasing Estimated Revenues
and Appropriations by $6,026 in the General Fund for
Repairs to the Senior Citizen Center Station Wagon.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Swarner MOVED for approval of Ordinance No. 1682-96
and Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion.
There were no public or council comments.

MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
C-2. Ordinance No. 1683-96 - Increasing Estimated Revenues
and Appropriations by $12,000 in the Water and Sewer
Fund for a Mixing Zone Study.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for adoption of Ordinance No. 1683-96
and Councilman Moore SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Measles asked if the
city would be proceeding with the study or is he requesting money
be made available if the study proceeds. Kornelis answered they
plan on proceeding with the study. EPA has suggested they do it.
Kornelis added, a resolution awarding the contract to do the
study was on the agenda as Item C-5. Further, the study would
establish whether it would be acceptable for the city of Kenai to
take washdown water from the Borough. The Borough has agreed to
pay for one-half of the cost for the study, but will use it as a
credit against disposal of their washdown water. Kornelis
referred to the information included with the ordinance in the
packet for additional explanation. The Borough will be needing a
mixing zone because of the metals in the washdown water.
Kornelis added, the city applied for its permit renewal two and
one-half years ago. Part of the problem is that the new
requirements will be more stringent and the city will be out of
compliance. The washdown water will also be out of compliance.
They hope to have the mixing zone study completed before the
environmentalists require it.
Council and Kornelis discussed the outfall, its distance from the
plant, and elevation. Vasey Engineering has worked with DEC to
prepare their proposal. The study will then be included with the
permit.
Councilman Bannock asked if the Borough was receptive of the
proposed RV dump site. Kornelis answered they are thinking about
it, but wouldn't allow him to include that proposal with taking
care of the washdown waters.

MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
C-3. Resolution No. 96-24 - Transferring $5,000 in the
General Fund for Legislative Expenditures
(Miscellaneous expenditures).
MOTION:
Councilman Bookey MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 96-24 and
Councilman Bannock SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Smalley asked if this
was the second request for additional funds into council's
miscellaneous account. Clerk Freas answered she was not aware of
any other transfers for the Legislative account. Smalley asked
what the progress was on the McCubbins placement of the welcome
sign. Bookey added, he remembered McCubbins was to come back to
council with the design. Kornelis answered he did not know and
was requested to check into it.
VOTE:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
C-4. Resolution No. 96-25 - Transferring $3,000 in the
General Fund for Legislative Expenditures (printing/
binding of Challenger Feasibility Study).

C-5. Resolution No. 96-26 - Awarding a Contract for the
Wastewater Treatment Plant Mixing Zone Analysis to
Vasey Engineering for the Not -to -Exceed Amount of
$10,824.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 96-26 and

There were no public or council comments.
VOTE:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
C-6. Resolution No. 96-27 - Awarding a Contract for Logging
Rights on City of Kenai Property (Section 36) to
for the Amount of $
Per Ton to be Paid to the City for the Useable Timber
Product.
Mayor Williams explained he received a request to remove this
resolution from the agenda as there were no bids received.
Williams added, the city had a study done to find out what logs
could be removed. No bids were received.
Kornelis added, he thought the lack of bids could be because the
city had stringent requirements, i.e. cutting the trees close to
the ground, removing branches, etc. from the area. This is not
usually done. Originally, the bidders were given a month to get
the trees out. However, an addendum was sent to all bidders
allowing them to store the logs and come back for them when the
snow melted and the ground was dried out. He discussed the
matter with Mark Hodgins and he suggested someone might submit a
proposal and he would investigate the possibility. Kornelis
added, he thought the city could try having the trees removed
later.
Councilman Moore asked if the markers on the trees would remain
(so that they would not have to be tagged again). Kornelis
answered the trees were marked with paint. The survey markers
are flags and should last. The property, right-of-way and center
lines were all marked by the surveyor.
NO ACTION TAKEN.

C-7. Resolution No. 96-28 - In Support of the Classification
of the Kenai Peninsula Borough Land Within the City of
Kenai Approved by City of Kenai Planning & Zoning
Commission Resolution No. 96-19.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 96-28 and
Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion.
Roy Dudley, Kenai Peninsula Borough Land Management Officer -
Informed the council of the Borough's schedule for processing the
classification of the lands listed on the resolution. The list
of lands to be classified would appear before the Borough
Planning Commission on May 28, and on to the Assembly meeting of
June 18. He will prepare an ordinance that will authorize the
conveyance of the city well site (from the Borough to the city).
He anticipated that ordinance would appear on the same meeting
agenda as the classification resolution or shortly thereafter.
Williams noted he did not see the property adjoining the Kenai
High School along Rogers Road and the Spur Highway listed.
Williams explained the council had requested that land be applied
for by the Borough and then classified for public use. Dudley
stated that property had not come into Borough ownership and so,
did not appear on the classification list. Williams requested
Dudley to look into the progress of this piece of property and
send a letter reporting what information he finds. Dudley stated
he would.
There were no further questions or -comments.
VOTE:
There were no objections. 80 ORDERED.
C-8. Resolution No. 96-29 - Changing Appropriations by
$27,500 in the Airport Land System Fund to Hire a
Consultant to Perform Marketing Research and Write a
Business Plan for the Proposed Aircraft Rescue and Fire
Fighting Training Center.
MOTION:
Councilman Bookey MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 96-29 and
Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion.

There were no public comments. Airport Manager Ernst requested
to clarify figures on the cost summary as they differed from the
actual proposal. They negotiated the research price down from
$12,000 to $11,000 and the videos were developed with current
funds. The $280 (on the summary) were for 100 videos. They
chose to have two sets of posters made bringing that cost to
$640.
Williams noted that a lot of the videos and posters were being
prepared to present the Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting training
proposal to the Fire Chiefs' Association, the State Department of
Transportation, the Governor's Office, etc. in order to secure
their approval and their guarantee to proceed as the city
requests funding from the FAA.
Williams added, there would be some additional costs to the
council's travel budget for the presentations. It is the
intention that the program for education would begin by April 10
at the Fire Chiefs' meeting. This will be a major presentation.
VOTE:
There were no objections. 80 ORDERED.
C-9. Resolution No. 96-30 - Supporting the Alaska Challenger
Learning Center Feasibility Report.
NOTION:
Councilman Bannock MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 96-30 and
Councilman Measles SECONDED the motion.
Kathy Scott - Scott explained she was presenting the feasibility
study to the council on behalf of the Steering Committee. The
Steering Committee was made up of 16 educational, professional
and technical people from the Kenai/Soldotna community. Their
last meeting was March 21 at which time they put the finishing
touches on the feasibility study.
Scott added, the study was done on time and on budget. The
promotional brochure and architectural plan doubled the value of
the study. On March 5, she, along with Superintendent of Schools
Bromenschenkel, Mayor Williams and Councilman Bannock discussed
the study via teleconference with Dave Sedlaw of the Challenger
Center in Alexandria, Virginia. They were urged by Mr. Sedlaw to
apply for a Challenger Center site.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES

Since the completion of the study, she has received letters of
support from the Science & Technology Foundation and the Kenai
Peninsula College. She also met with Lt. Governor Ulmer and Andy
Klein while in Juneau. Klein offered help in regard to the
technical classroom. She also met with Elaine Griffin, National
Teacher of the Year from Kodiak. Griffin was ecstatic that the
application was going forward and offered her help.
Scott added, speaking for the Steering Committee, the whole
process has been very fulfilling. With council's approval, the
study and application would be submitted. A decision would be
made by Challenger on April 29.
Councilwoman Swarner noted the resolution of support from the
Kenai Visitors' Center was dated incorrectly. Scott stated she
would have it corrected.
Councilman Moore asked, if revenue would eventually drop because
people have come to the Center. Scott answered, students in the
Kenai Peninsula Borough could come to the Center four times each
and not duplicate the programs. Additionally, the national
Challenger Center develops new programs. It would be highly
unlikely that use of the Center would drop. Williams added, in
each of the five curriculums, there are 20 jobs involved. A
student could come 100 times and not do the same job twice.
Swarner asked if the School District had indicated how the
student charges would be paid. Scott answered, the students
would pay the amount individually. The Committee also talked
about supplementing with a scholarship program. Councilman
Bannock added, when he went through a program in California, he
found that the group of kids he was involved with had their fees
paid by a major automobile manufacturer. It would cost
approximately $500 for a small business to sponsor 30 kids to the
program and buy lunch as well. He thought it an excellent way
for local businesses to be involved.
Councilman Smalley asked if the date would

C-10. 1996/97 Liquor License Renewal - Eaglechief, Inc. d/b/a
Katmai Restaurant & Lounge - Tourism.
Clerk Freas referred to the information included in the packet.
The Katmai Restaurant accounts at the Borough were current,
however they were owing amounts for lease payments to the city.
Notification was sent to the owners that the amount would need to
be brought current by April 10 or a city -approved payment
schedule be current in order for council to approve the renewal
of the liquor license. The additional information distributed to
council at the beginning of the meeting was notification from the
Legal Department that a payment schedule had been drafted and
agreed to by the owners and the city. If council approved the
payment schedule, the papers would be signed tomorrow by the
owners.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for approval of the 1996/97 Liquor
License for Eaglechief, Inc., d/b/a Katmai Restaurant & Lounge,
contingent upon the signatures of the Singrees on the proposed
payment schedule. Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion.
Mayor Williams stated he supported the proposal 100% as he felt
the reason for the lack of payment was due to the State's cutting
off access to the Katmai during the highway reconstruction in the
summer months. He would forgive the entire debt if he could. He
had no qualms in supporting the request.
Councilwoman Swarner asked Attorney Graves if he had any
concerns. Graves stated no, he talked with Mr. Singree and they
worked out the payment schedule. The papers would be executed in
the morning if council approved.
VOTE:
There were no objections. SO ORDERED.

PAGE 14
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED for introduction of Ordinance No. 1684-
96 and Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Bookey explained he
requested this ordinance be removed from the consent agenda
because he was under the assumption the vehicle was totaled.
Bookey asked if it was prudent to repair the vehicle because the
budget allows two new cars to be purchased. This vehicle could
then be taken out of service.
Police Chief Morris explained the car had a new drive train put
in it a few years ago. The mechanics of the car were in good
shape and it didn't have many miles on it. The vehicle was still
able to be driven, however the fenders and doors need repairing.
It continues to be a mechanically sound car.
Councilman Smalley asked if there would be any liability to the
city for having it first listed as a totaled vehicle and then
removing it as totaled. Attorney Graves answered if the vehicle
could be repaired safely, it should not be a problem. Graves
added, he was relying on the Chief's determination the car could
be repaired and used.
VOTE:
Councilman Measles requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT. There were no
objections. 80 ORDERED.

Introduced by consent agenda.
H-8. Discussion - Kenai River Protection Ordinance.
Assemblymember Betty Glick - Glick reported on the Borough
Assembly's actions taken the night before on their Kenai River
Protection Ordinance. Glick stated she gave the most recent copy
of the ordinance to Attorney Graves for his review. The
ordinance included a change recommended by the Acting Borough
Attorney Bill Walker. Mr. Walker was hired due to his knowledge
of the takings issue, etc.
Glick reported the proposed amendments proposed at their 3/16/96
meeting and a special work session was held on 3/27/96. The
proposed amendments were attached to the memorandum -- some of
which were withdrawn, some voted down, etc. Through the process,
there have been more positive comments than there were last year
with the overlay ordinance.
Comments last night suggested the setback should be 100 ft. and
should include the watershed and tributaries. Others thought the
ordinance would have no effect and should be scrapped. Comments
from the Parks Division, Fish & Game, and Division of Forestry
were they would like to see a more stringent ordinance, but were
supportive of getting an ordinance on the books and also
committed to working with the Borough in enforcing the
ordinance's criteria when adopted.
Comments from the majority of the people giving testimony in
regard to the tributaries, setback and watershed issue were that
the deletion of the area from the Warren Aames Bridge to the
mouth and the Cooper Landing area should be put back into the
ordinance, making the ordinance applicable to the entire water
column from Kenai Lake to the mouth. An amendment to this regard
will be brought to the table at their next meeting (April 16).
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 16
Attorney Gravest amendment for Section 21.18.090 (prior existing
structures) was discussed. Assemblywoman Merkes did not like
Graves' suggested language that stated "prior existing structures
which were lawful and in use." She proposed to take out "lawful"
and put in "were in use or had a substantial start." A long
discussion followed regarding the word "lawful" and "in use" and
what would constitute a "substantial start." Action was to
remove "lawful" and "were in use" was added. The reference to
"had a substantial start" did not pass.
However, the Borough Attorney submitted suggested language which
they felt would protect them better from lawsuits and was
adopted. The language Graves prepared and was considered at
their meeting last night, was unanimously adopted.
Graves also prepared an amendment to 21.18.060, activities with
the habitat protection area. That amendment was also unanimously
adopted.
Including the tributaries was defeated. An amendment was
proposed to 21.18.035 to create a watershed (600 horizontal feet
back). There was an amendment to increase the watershed area,
but was defeated. The 600' was approved.
The wording to protect the canneries was considered as opposed to
deleting a portion of the river. The conditional use permitting
is included and does address the concerns of the canneries.
Councilman Measles asked what is a structure as defined in a
prior existing structure, 21.18.090. Glick answered, any kind of
a structure, i.e. a house, garage, a shed, cannery. Any kind of
a structure there now would be grandfathered in by the ordinance.
Attorney Graves stated if there is no definition, the court would
go to the dictionary definition of structure. Structure is a
broad definition. He believes, in the ordinance, it was meant to
be broad to grandfather a lot in.
Measles noted the ordinance creates a "Kenai Watershed District."
The district is created, but it is not mentioned anywhere else in
the ordinance. Measles asked what creating a district would do?
Glick answered, the explanation was to draw an arbitrary line to
encompass the watershed area. She was not in favor of this as
watershed starts at the headwaters of the Kenai River.
Measles stated his concern at creating a watershed district or
defining a flood plain would make it easy in the future to expand
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 17
all the regulations in the ordinance to cover those districts.
It probably could be done without a lot of public awareness.
Measles referred to Section 21.18.040(b) which would remove part
of the lower and upper river where it states "shall be excluded
from and shall not be considered a part of the habitat protection
area but shall be subject to all other provisions of this
chapter" and asked what it meant. Glick stated she understood it
as excluding in regard to the 50' setback. She believes if it is
excluding the area, it is excluding the area. Mr. Drathman's
recommendation was to exclude the 50' habitat protection area
because there are essentially no banks in the lower part of the
river as there are in the upper river.
Attorney Graves stated he read it to mean the 50' setback
wouldn't apply but the other regulations of what can and cannot
be done in a flood plain will apply. Glick stated she agreed.
Councilman Smalley referred to areas of exclusion for some of the
habitat protection below the warren Aames Bridge, the land lying
between the outlet of Kenai Lake downstream and Cooper Creek,
etc. In the definitions, Kenai River is defined as "the stem of
water from Kenai Lake to the mouth, excluding Skilak Lake."
Smalley asked if that was another exclusion. Glick answered yes.
She added, there had been a proposed amendment in regard to the
Skilak Lake exclusion at their 3/27/96 meeting but did not come
up for further discussion last night. Smalley asked why it was
proposed to be excluded because Skilak Lake is a ballooning of
the Kenai River. Glick answered that was a question raised by a
number of the assembly, however it was not discussed at the
meeting last night.
Smalley referred to 21.18.110, Penalty Violations and asked who
would be responsible for litigation expenses if the city chooses
not to adopt the Borough's ordinance. Glick answered she
believed it would be the Borough's responsibility as it is their
ordinance and they would be enforcing the ordinance.
Smalley referred to 21.18.010 and noted at the bottom of the
paragraph, "it is the intent of the ordinance to avoid
duplicating regulations of ... municipal agencies ... and to minimize
conflicts between the regulations and the ordinance." Smalley
stated he continued to see the city in conflict on this issue.
Also, the one area of the River really needing protection was the
dunes and the ordinance did not speak to the dunes area. Smalley
added, he perceived this area, as well as any part of the river
inside the city of Kenai, as the city's responsibility.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 18
Smalley also asked, if areas were to be excluded, i.e. Skilak
Lake, Warren Aames Bridge to the mouth, why couldn't the area
from Mile 12 to the mouth be excluded. Also, different sets of
regulations, create different standards by which people who live
in the different areas are impacted.
Glick agreed and added, the areas proposed for exclusion also
included Kenai Keyes, Castaway Cove, and Poachers Cove
Subdivisions. Justification to exclude them was that they were
substandard lots the Borough approved and should be excluded
because they could not comply. However, the motion to exclude
them was defeated.
Smalley stated to support his comment, if a community or
municipality was set up with a definite set of standards, which
it enforces for development, then that entity should be allowed
to enforce its ordinances and should not be stepped upon by an
outside entity. If a municipality doesn't have similar
ordinances or wants the Borough to apply its ordinance to their
area, then that would be acceptable. But if a municipality has
an ordinance already enforced, it should be allowed to use that
ordinance.
Glick reported the City of Soldotna has an ordinance on the books
which is more stringent than the Borough's proposed ordinance.
Soldotna is loosening some of their rules and regulations.
Glick also recalled, the last time she came before the council,
Councilman Bannock suggested the City of Kenai property from 12h
miles from the mouth should be excluded from the Borough
ordinance. Because there is city land on one side of the river
(within those 12h miles) and Borough land on the other, it
presents a problem for enforcement and possible discrimination.
Smalley suggested the ordinance only speak to the Borough lands
within that area. Glick stated that could be a possibility,
however no amendment to that effect had been presented.
Glick reported the ordinance would be back before the Assembly on
April 16 and there were additional amendments forthcoming, as
well as the ordinance being open for amendments up to the time
the ordinance is adopted.
Williams stated a problem could arise if the Borough would try to
enforce police or civil power in regard to their ordinance, over
the city's building code if the City issued a building permit to
a person and the Borough did not or visa versa. The Borough
ordinance does not speak to the city's permitting authority.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 19
Discussion continued in regard to the effect of the Parks
Department, Fish & Game, etc. and their enforcement and
protection of the river. The Parks Department was asked if they
would enter into a Memorandum of Agreement in regard to
protecting the river and they said they would work on it.
Mayor Williams noted the council would continue to monitor the
situation.
H-9. Discussion - Procedures for Management of Dipnet
Fishers at Beach/River Mouth.
Mayor Williams explained he requested Attorney Graves to research
if the city had the legal right to interfere with the dipnetting
which has been approved by the Board of Fish. He was told, the
city can do some things to prevent damage to city lands, but the
Public Trust Doctrine has to be considered, allowing public
access to the beach. The city can control where access is made
to the beach.
Steve Perrizo - Explained that he lives in the last home within
the city limits on the south side of the River. He has
experienced a lot of trouble with trash, damage to his yard, his
home, trash, etc. and tearing down of the dunes. He suggested
discontinuing allowing motorized vehicles on the beach on the
south side.
Williams noted Attorney Graves had developed a no parking
ordinance on Kenai Avenue, which was introduced at the beginning
of the meeting. There are other things the city can do to
control access to the beach, however enforcing the rules is a
problem.
Bookey stated he agreed with Williams and understood Perrizo's
concerns because more control on this side of the river will push
more people to the south side. Whatever is done, all areas of
the river need enforcement. He hoped the city would be ready to
handle the problem.
Councilman Moore stated he believed the way to protect the beach,
private properties, etc. is to restrict the use of motorized
vehicles on the dunes and beach. There will be a parking problem
if the road along the dunes is shut. If parking is allowed (by
the sewer plant), there will need to be a limit of how long.
Moore suggested a 24-hour maximum.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 20
Smalley suggested, to help eliminate problems and enforce the
code, a police officer will need to be stationed in the area.
The city needs to respond to the protection of the area,
including prohibiting driving on the beach.
Bookey noted there would also be a financial problem. The boat
ramp fees were set at $5.00. The boat dock will be inundated
with garbage and bathroom use. It will be costly to regulate.
Bookey suggested instituting a transportation service concession.
Moore added, if the city didn't do something drastic, it will
loose credibility.
Councilman Bannock stated he was not ready to eliminate vehicle
use on the south side of the river as there is access to the
beach without using the road by the Perrizo home. Cetacea (a
Borough street) could be encouraged to be used instead. It would
be too far for people to walk.
It was suggested the right-of-way (by Perrizo) be vacated in
order to block public access to the beach at that area. Williams
noted it has to be vacated by the Borough and they have objected
to it in the past. Bannock suggested vacation be requested again
because of the upcoming problems.
Bannock also suggested the Borough be requested to put a sign up
at Cetacea which would encourage the public to use that access to
the beach. Perrizo suggested only allowing foot traffic by his
home, however that would not remove parking problems.
Councilwoman Swarner suggested large signs be placed at the
Perrizo property informing the public the right-of-way was open
only to foot traffic and request permission from the Borough to
place a sign at Cetacea.
Kornelis reported the Harbor Commission discussed concerns at
their last meeting and will be addressing them again at their
upcoming meeting. At their last meeting, the Commission
discussed placing concrete pilings and large logs along Kenai
Avenue to prevent people from driving off the road and onto the
dunes. There could be an area to drive down Kenai Avenue, drop
off equipment and people, and then drive back and park along
Spruce Street. The Commission also requested signs be placed at
the dock to instruct pleasure boats to move when fishing boats
are needing to unload.
Smalley noted enforcement of rules would be costly both
financially and personnel -wise. Smalley suggested requesting
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 21
help from the State for additional dumpsters, outhouses, law
enforcement (State Troopers), etc. Police Chief Morris stated
there would probably be no help from the Troopers. However, he
had $6,000 in his budget for overtime for officers to attend the
Police Academy. If no officers are sent to the Academy, that
money would be available for 200 hours of overtime for an officer
to address the issues.
The Harbor Commission was requested to discuss the matter
further. Kornelis was directed to see what signs could be made,
etc. Get a plan on paper.
ITEM I: ADMINISTRATION REPORTS
I-1. Mayor
a. Halfvay House - Williams reported the State had pulled
their application to place a halfway house in Nikiski. This was
due to the outcry of concerned Nikiski residents who spoke
against the placement of the halfway house during the last
Borough Assembly meeting.
A Corrections' representative contacted him and asked what
Williams thought of the possibility of building a halfway house
at Wildwood with the city's participation in regard to furnishing
bonding. The arrangement would be like the city's participation
with the building of the new court house.
Williams asked council of their opinion in regard to this type of
city participation. He added, a public hearing could be held in
regard to the matter as well.
Councilman Bookey stated he did not have a problem in talking
with the state about the possibility of the city participating.
Councilman Bannock stated he did not want to be involved as he
was not convinced a halfway house was acceptable to have in the
area. This was due to the fact there are no hard and fast rules
about who would be housed in such a facility.
Councilman Smalley stated parolees were already in the community,
and are persons who could ease into society through a halfway
house program, but have not because there are none available. It
is something that will have to be dealt with. Smalley added, he
would not say no to the prospect, but would insist on holding
well -advertised public hearings prior to any decision made.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 22
Councilman Moore asked if the state could build a halfway house
at Wildwood. Williams answered yes, the state owns the land.
Although the Borough has no regulation to prevent having a
halfway house in the Borough, the Assembly has indicated they
will pass a ordinance to require a public hearing prior to
placement in the Borough. Williams added, with the city funding
the building, it could be involved in the design and development
of the specifications and could guarantee the type of facility
that would be built at Wildwood.
Bannock stated, the city could guarantee the type of building
that was built, but could not guarantee who would be living
there. Additionally, having a house at Wildwood would bring
house residents who are originally from other areas of the state.
Bannock suggested a committee could be formed to review those
persons considered for residency at a halfway house.
Councilman Measles asked what would be the advantage to the city
for aiding in building the halfway house. Williams answered,
probably nothing, however the city could control how the building
would be built. There would be some jobs involved for the area
as well.
Councilman Moore stated he would discuss the matter with the
state, but didn't think he was interested. Smalley stated he
thought there should be a public hearing. Councilwoman Swarner
stated she agreed with Councilman Measles. Measles added, he
didn't have a problem with discussing the matter with
Corrections, but would want assurance there would be some direct
benefit to the city. If the city used bonds to finance the
building of the halfway house, it would reduce the city's bonding
capacity. Williams noted the city had a massive bonding
capacity. Measles repeated, if there is no benefit to the city,
why do it.
Williams answered the city has an obligation to all members of
the community, including those that would be residents of the
halfway house until they are back in their own homes. Swarner
added, she still thought that the benefit needed to be known.
Williams stated he couldn't give one.
Smalley offered, since some of the residents of the halfway house
would be relatives and friends of people in the community, it may
make them better people. Smalley asked Chief Morris of his
opinion of halfway houses. Morris stated that halfway houses
occur everywhere and probably will occur. There are
approximately 300 people on parole and in the area at this time.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1996
PAGE 23
In a halfway house environment, there is some sort of
supervision. He personally did not have a problem with halfway
houses.
Smalley asked if people who have treatment through a halfway
house situation before they are released back into the community,
do better or end up back at prison. Morris answered some
benefit, but he did not think it was a majority.
Moore stated he was not interested in having a halfway house in
Kenai, but was willing to hear discussion on the matter. Smalley
suggested that if they discussed the matter with Corrections,
more benefits to the city may come to light. Measles stated he
was open for discussion.
Williams stated he would contact Corrections and let them know
the council was willing to discuss the matter. Measles reminded
council that in other discussions council has had, it was
suggested that Corrections should build a halfway house at
Wildwood.
b. Soldotna Wastewater Collection System - Williams
referred to the 3/19/96 letter from Mayor Ken Lancaster which was
included in the packet. In the letter, Lancaster suggested
meeting with city of Kenai representatives to discuss the
possibility of using the Kenai wastewater plant to treat both
Kenai and Soldotna wastewater. This would be effected by the
City of Soldotna extending their system to the Thompson Park area
and joining into Kenai's system. Service to adjacent areas
enroute to Thompson Park would be joined by LIDs.
Williams suggested scheduling a meeting with Mayor Lancaster to
discuss the proposal with City Manager Manninen in attendance.
April 11, 1996, at 9:00 a.m. was suggested.
C. Sakhalin Exchange - Williams reported a grant was
received from Sister Cities to hold an exchange of newspaper
people from Sakhalin and the Peninsula Clarion.
d. Vehicles/First & Birch - Williams reported the amount
of vehicles on the corner property at First & Birch was getting
worse.

EXECUTIVE SESSION - City Manager Evaluation.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED to convene in an executive session of
the council of the City of Kenai concerning matters which by law,
municipal charter, or ordinance, are required to be confidential
and requested Mr. Manninen, the City Manager attend it with
council. Mayor Williams asked if council could have some time
before the city manager comes up and send for him? Smalley had
no objections to the request. Councilman Bookey SECONDED the
motion. There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
EXECUTIVE SESSION CONVENED: 10:10 P.M.
COUNCIL MEETING REBUKED: 1:10 A.M.
Councilman Smalley reported during the course of the executive
session council discussed the evaluation with the city manager
and the present employment agreement that the city has with the
city manager. The council will be drafting a new employment
agreement and would request the city attorney draft a letter to
the city manager as required by the present agreement, notifying
the city manager of the expiration of the present agreement,
effective July 31, 1996.
Mayor Williams asked if there was anything else. Councilman
Smalley stated he believed that was all unless another
councilmember had a different observation than he.
Councilman Measles requested that the letter be signed by all
council members and his name be put on the dissenting list.
Mayor Williams noted there would be two lists, a dissenting list
and an agreeing list. Williams asked if there was not something
else in regard to the development. Smalley answered, not that he
sat down and said this is exactly what his perception of the
agreement, unless someone could correct him.
Attorney Graves stated that if that was council's intent, it
might be appropriate to have a motion to direct him to give that
notice because there are some limited things the council can
actually do in an executive session and that may be one of them.
He added, he thought to say it in a motion and vote.
Mayor Williams requested an AT EASE at 1:14 a.m. There were no
objections. Council meeting resumed at approximately 1:18 a.m.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES
MOTION
Sam Huddleston made the motion to accept the minutes as submitted and asked for
unanimous consent. Lucille Billings seconded. There being no objection the minutes
were accepted and passed by unanimous consent.
OLD BUSINESS
1. Vehicle Purchase
Georgetta Funk reported that the city will purchase a new vehicle. She stated the City
Attorney would research whether or not it has to be wheel chair accessible.
Pat Porter stated the City Attorney did research the wheel chair accessible question. The
attorney found that since we already have a wheel chair accessible vehicle, we do not
have to purchase another one. Porter added that our transportation system is not open
to the public so we are not obligated to buy another wheel chair accessible van. Porter
said she has spoken with the Shop Foreman regarding specifications for the bid and the
money will be available July 1. Porter said they will ask for a raised roof on the vehicle
to make it easier to get in and out of the vehicle.
2. Bylaws
Porter stated no action was previously taken on accepting the changes to the Bylaws.
She suggested going over the changes again, then voting. It was agreed by all
commissioners to do so.
Porter stated the changes are as follows: Article 3 - meeting dates notice changed to 15
days Notice from 20 days notice; no longer "President," it is now "Chairperson;" Article
4 - Place of Meetings, deleted "Comm unity;" Article 7 - strike the titles President, Vice
President, Secretary/Treasurer and use "Chairperson" and "Vice -Chair."

MOTION
Lucille Billings made a motion to accept the Bylaws with the suggested changes and
asked for unanimous consent. Pauline Gross seconded. There being no objections the
motion passed by unanimous consent.
NEW BUSINESS
Barbara Knapp - Division of Senior Services
Barbara Knapp said she has no troubles to report, the Kenai Senior Center looks very
good. She said Pat passed out a copy of the form she uses to evaluate the senior
centers so everyone can see what is evaluated. Knapp went over a few of the things
evaluated and said she is available to explain anything not understood. She said the
Older Americans Act (OAA) is being taken out of the block grant concept, which will be
good. Knapp stated the OAA will come up for reauthorization this fall and is scheduled
to be introduced to congress in July.
Pat Porter said the OAA is where the Sr. Center gets the bulk of its grant money. Knapp
added it is federal funds given to the state which is divided up among the state centers.
She said there has been a small increase put in for some programs. Knapp said that on
the state level, the Division of Sr. Services came through pretty good this year with only
approximately $60,000 cut.
2. United Way Fund
Pat Porter said she is not sure how much the center will receive from all of the funding
agencies. She said the center received the same amount from the Borough, $50,253 and
as far as she knows it should stay the same from the Division of Sr. Services, $124,322.
Porter said there was a $5,507 loss from the United Way this year. She added this loss
is not because of anything the Kenai Sr. Center has done, rather because of some major
changes through -out United Way. Porter said the center went through the United Way
reviews very well and were accepted for another three years of funding.
3. Budget Review
Pat Porter said she will be glad to go over the budget with anyone who would like some
extra explanation or she can meet with a group, which ever is easier.

collect such tax, shall incur a penalty of double the tax liability.

promulgated as regulations.

Dear Senator Stevens:
Alaskan Region
222 W. 7111'
Anchorage, AiasKa
99513-7587
Thank you for your interest in the proposed Regional Aircraft Rescue and Fire
Fighting (ARFF) Training Facility at Kenai.
The Alaskan Region Airports Division has been working closely with both the
City of Kenai's Airport Management and the Fire Department to assist them
through the process to enable this project to be considered for Airport
Improvement Program (AIP) funding.
A Regional ARFF Training Facility is an eligible item of development under the
AIP grant program. We strongly support the concept of a regional ARFF training
facility.
In order to pursue AIP funds, the FAA must ensure there is a commitment from
the majority of the Part 139 airport operators in the State to accomplish the
ARFF training required under Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 139,
Certificate and Operations: Land Airports Serving Certain Air Carriers, at the
proposed facility. During our recent meetings on this subject, November 8, 1995
and February 22, 1996, we advised the City that the next step in the process is
to obtain a commitment from State of Alaska, Department of Transportation and
Public Facilities (DOTPF), that the proposed facility would be used to
accomplish DOTPF's training requirements. DOTPF owns and operates the
majority of the airports within the State of Alaska. We understand that the City
has begun the process of working with DOTPF but has not yet received a firm
commitment.
We expect to fund only one regional ARFF training facility within the State of
Alaska. We are aware of another proposal for such a facility.

We look forward to continuing to assist the City of Kenai throughout this
process.
Sincerely,

Subject: Involvement in Kenai River Planning
Dear Mayor Williams:
be, ir��/o/dam ire
s edi i A4
I request the involvement of your agency in the revision of the state's Kenai River Management
Plan through participation in a technical working group. This group will assist Department staff
and the Kenai River Advisory Board in its efforts to update the plan.
As you are aware, there is considerable concern over the affects of intensive recreational use upon
the Kenai River as well as with the indirect impacts upon the watershed created by the various
types of surface development. We believe that it is necessary to revise the plan at this time so that
we have a better vehicle to manage the critical recreational and fishery resources, and before there
is irreversible damage to the fishery.
Our intent in this effort is to continue the watershed planning approach used in the previous plan
and, to the extent practicable, integrate the management strategies of other state and federal
agencies within this document so that a coordinated management scheme will exist that can be
used by local, state, and federal agencies in their resource administration and regulatory activities.
The Department's approach is to be quite focused in the process of the plan revision -- by using
the extensive available information and by creating a planning process that has January, 1997, as
its end date. There should be a concentrated effort to revise the main plan components over the
next several months, and the most active time for this group's participation will probably be during
that period. Additional periods of significant effort should occur when the draft and final plans
are available for review, scheduled in September and December, respectively.
We want the technical Working Group to provide a sounding board to assist staff and the
Advisory Board in the planning process. The technical Working Group will act in an advisory
capacity, meeting at the request of the Department staff or the Advisory Board as necessary. The
principal staff for this planning effort includes the Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Department
of Natural Resources (primarily Divisions of Land and Parks and Outdoor Recreation), and the
Alaska Department of Fish and Game.

April 12, 1996
The Kenai River Advisory Board is to act as the focus of the public participation effort and will
make the principal policy decisions over plan revision issues and the corresponding management
recommendations. The revised plan is to be recommended for adoption to the Commissioner,
Department of Natural Resources, and the Assembly of the Kenai Peninsula Borough.
It is also our hope that through this planning effort a consensus on key management strategies can
be reached and that as a result, the revised plan, or elements of the plan, could be adopted by
other local, state, and federal resource management entities.
We intend that the technical working group will perform four main functions. It will help in:
(1) plan data collection and analysis by providing agency staff to work with the
Department and the Advisory Board;
(2) provide a forum for the discussion of significant planning issues;
(3) provide a vehicle for the review of important technical and planning issues identified by
staff or the Advisory Board; and through
(4) participation in this planning process, encourage the various local, state, and federal
resource management entities to manage the river and its associated uplands in a more
coordinated fashion.
Please submit the name of your representative to my ffice b or fore Apri126 The
Department will call the first meeting of this group shortly after that date. Should you want
additional information about the plan or the planning process, you may contact Bruce Phelps,
Planning Manager, Division of Land, at 269-8592.
Sincerely,

Attachment: Kenai River Draft Work Plan
cc: Chairman, Kenai River Advisory Board
DRAFT WORK PLAN - REVISION
of the
KENAI RIVER MANAGEMENT PLAN
March 7, 1996
A. Purpose: The purpose of this revision of the Kenai River Management Plan is to
update and augment, as necessary, the current state management plan in order to
create a planning document that provides the basis for the management, restoration,
and protection of the critical fishery resources and sensitive fishery habitats on the
Kenai River and its tributaries. To the extent practicable, this planning document will
include planning and management recommendations for private, state, and federal
properties and is intended to form the basis for the integrated protection and
management of the Kenai River planning area by local, state, and federal governments
and agencies, in cooperation with the public.
1. Plan Goal, Issue Identification and Plan Development Process
Purpose: To identify the principal goals and planning objectives that will be used to
guide the revision of the Plan; identify the principal information sources and data
bases (electronic, non -electronic, and GIS), and initiate the process to acquire the
necessary spatial (map) and non -spatial data for plan revision.
a. Identify planning issues relevant to the protection, enhancement, and management of
the Kenai River (Rivera).
Purpose: To insure that the issues that are analyzed in the planning process have been
identified and correctly defined.
• Kenai River Advisory Board (Board) initially identifies issues. The initial public
meeting further identifies and defines the planning issues. Staff (DoL and
DOPOR) synthesizes results of meeting in memo format; this is reviewed with the
Board and further refined. Staff revises issue summary and redistributes to Board.
b. Identify use, protection, enhancement, and management goals for the River as a
whole and its principal sections (see footnote #2).
• Use public meetings (March and April) in Anchorage and Soldotna to identify
goals and management objectives. Synthesize results (DoL and DOPOR) and
review with Board. Board adopts planning goals and management objectives for
River and, if practicable, principal river segments.
c. Develop draft Work Plan.
Purpose: To provide a general idea of how the Kenai River Management Plan (Plan)
will be revised; identify the agency and Board responsibilities for the planning
functions, and specify the production timing and content of the planning documents.
I The term 'River' is meant to apply hereafter to the Kenai River and its tribe arics. It includes the area of the
watershed of the Kenai River. The planning area along the River includes the area within 320 feet of Ordinary High
Water (primary area) and within 1,320 feet of OHW (secondary area).
-1-
• Identify general research functions for each of the agencies involved in Plan
revision, especially those be pursued in the next 3-4 months. Coordinate with the
various agencies and ensure that staffing and other resources will be provided at
the times and amounts necessary. Revise these research responsibilities as the
Work Plan is reviewed and revised.
d. Identify principal electronic data base and Geographic Information System
availability, cost, and content. Import compatible GIS data bases into the Division of
Land (DoL) GIS. Identify principal literature resources and compile a revised listing
of principal research materials.
e. Identify principal mapping requirements and prepare requests for GIS mapping to the
Kenai Peninsula Borough (Borough) and the Alaska Department of Fish and Game
(ADFG). Request from Borough and ADFG land ownership, land use, and structure
information for developed land and vacant land for the river maintstem (separated
into seven segments2 ); floodplain (pre -flood and post -flood), wetland (National
Wetland Inventory of hydrologically/biologically significant wetlands), and instream
structure data.
2. Functional/Geographic Research.
Purpose: To describe the principal fishery resources and habitat requirements of
the River; identify the appropriate type and intensity of upland and instream
recreation requirements; and identify the principal use and indirect causative
factors affecting essential river functions. Further, and based on the results of the
foregoing analyses, identify potential solutions to identified river use problems as
well as those solutions necessary to realize adopted river planning and management
goals.
Note: This analysis will take place between now and early June. It is intended to be
a fairly detailed analysis of river planning considerations and a limited analysis of
potential solutions. Detailed solutions are intended to be developed when the
Concept Plan is under consideration and subsequently incorporated in the Concept
Plan.

• Review and revise the current sections of the Plan relating to upland recreation.
Upland recreation generally includes structural facilities and use areas (i.e.,
campgrounds, boat launches, docks, trails, etc.).
• Prepare 5 and 10 year use demand projections of recreational activities.
• Relate recreation use demand estimates (upland and instream) to general
demographic data for the Kenai Peninsula and with regional recreational use
forecasts prepared by the state.
• Identify needed and desirable upland recreation facilities. The term 'facility' is to
be broadly interpreted: the range may include trails, access areas with associated
parking, campgrounds, boat launches, etc. Facility recommendations are to be
developed on a river section basis.
• Describe the required facilities. Specify, at a minimum, river mile location,
project name and type, improvement characteristics, agency responsibility, and
timing.
• Identify the impact area associated with recommended upland use facilities. The
expected use impacts will be analyzed during the review of initial
recommendations that will proceed the development of the Concept Plan.
• Summarize findings and recommendations in a report. Review report with
Advisory Board and revise as necessary, and possibly include summary in the
Plan.
Instream Areas
Note: This recreation analysis will concentrate on the use of the Kenai River by
boaters (power and drift) and bank anglers, and the interaction of these groups in
terms of crowding and desirability of recreational experience. The carring capacity
report (1993) will be used as the basis for the further analysis of this interaction and,
in significant part, as the basis for the instream recreation recommendations.
• Re -analyze the carring capacity report and reconfirm principal research findings
with summer survey prepared by Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation
(DOPOR) volunteers. Develop a survey methodology and content, create survey,
and establish staffing and resource requirements.
• Identify principal crowding and recreational use issues in carring capacity;
identify issues/approaches that are not appropriate or cannot be justified for
further consideration based on survey results. These issues are to be discussed
with the Advisory Board before further consideration occurs.
• Prepare estimates of future recreation demand by principal recreation use type and
convert these to crowding levels.
• For recreation issues warranting further consideration, identify varying future use
levels for each type of principal recreational use conflict. Describe (either in
subjective or quantifiable terms) the extent of such crowding and convert
descriptions to use level indicators. Identify the consequences associated with
these levels and relate to desired end states identified in the public review process.
Specify the management and cost requirements for each future use level and its
-3-
associated desired end state. (Note the emphasis on levels of end state; it is likely
that there will be varying levels of recreational experience (crowding) based upon
demand projections and increasing levels of management intervention).
• Prepare a report that explains and describes the results of this analysis. Present as
much information as possible in table form. Review report with Advisory Board.
Revise report as necessary and incorporate it (or a restatement of the report) into
the Plan.
b. Environmental Analysis
Attribute mapping of significant environmental resources.
• Wetlands: Identify hydrologically significant wetlands with probable connection
to the Kenai River. Identify sensitive wetland (wildlife and fishery) habitats.
Using Borough GIS, map sensitive/significant wetlands. Relate to vacant land
ownership information and calculate acreage of affected areas for vacant parcels
by land ownership.
• Floodplains: Identify pre- and post -flood floodplain information. Using Borough
GIS , map floodplain/floodway in planning area. Relate to vacant land ownership
information. Calculate acreage of affected areas for vacant parcels by land
ownership.
• Summarize findings and recommendations in a report. Review report with
Advisory Board and revise as necessary. Incorporate into report (or a restatement
of the report) into the Plan.
Identification of stressor impacts Croon River habitats and fishery,
Point Source: Identify significant known or probable impacts created by point
source stressors, including point sewerage discharges, stormwater outfalls, fuel
and hazardous substance and contamination. Identification of point source
stressors will be based upon state and federal data bases available to DNR.
• Non -Point Source: Identify known or probable impacts created by non -point
stressors, including timber harvest and urban/suburban/rural development. Note:
It is probable that information on the aforementioned stressors will be limited and
anecdotal; it is likely that only implied impacts can be generated from the review
of development trends in the Land Use Analysis.
• Summarize findings and recommendations in a report. Review report with
Advisory Board and revise as necessary. Incorporate report (or a restatement of
the report) into the Plan.
c. Land Use Analysis
Note: The Land Use Analysis will be performed by the DoL and Borough. The
Borough will be directly responsible for the non -state land portions and the DoL, for
the state -federal portions. DNR will assist the Borough in its portion of the land use
analysis. DNR will also incorporate federal resource plans and management
strategies in the Land Use portion of the plan. (Note: DNR will not prepare
recommendations on federally managed lands, rather, it will incorporate federal
resource designations and strategies into the draft Plan.) The following description
derives from discussions with the Borough and has been formatted to reflect that
discussion.
1. GIS Analysis: Organize by River Segment (subtotals and totals, counts and
acreage)
a. Developed Land Analysis: Identify structures by type, instream and upland
b. Delineation of wetlands and floodplains (floodway and floodplain)
c. Undeveloped Land (Vacant Land) Analysis
(1) Vacant parcels (use currently existing polygons)
(2) Land Ownership (vacant land status) organized by Native, City, Borough,
State, Federal (Refuge, CNF)
(3) Vacant Parcels by land Ownership (organize by land status)
(4) Wetlands by land status
(5) Floodplain by land status
Note: These GIS analyses will be coordinated with ADFG GIS assessments.
2. KPB Demographic/Land Development Analysis
a. Prepare population/Employment projections (by economic sector.)2
b. Identify vacant land supply (by region within the Kenai-Soldotna area.
3. Review Areas of Potential Development3
a. Identify amount of (general) potential development within near term (10 yrs.)
b. Identify probable types of development (general)
c. Identify 'a' and 'b' for river planning area
d. Map 'c' on USGS 1;63,260 quadrangles and digitize areas for representation
on GIS.
f. Review with KPB Planning Commission and revise, if necessary
4. Identify Kenai River Access Points
a. State/Federal: update current access information in Plan
2 Existing KPB, ISER, or other appropriate projections. Dwelling unit projections will also be used if available.
3 This is intended to the result of a generalized, subjective peer analysis.
-5-
b. Non-State/Federal: update current access information. This will require the
identification of platted as well as current access easements.
5. Identify Resource Designations on Federal Land (Refuge and National Forest)
Identify recommended use designations developed for the Wildlife Refuge and
Chugach National Forest. Working with federal land use managers, DNR will
identify these use and management recommendations and incorporate into the
Plan, presenting the use designations in map form. Use designations will be
plotted onto USGS quadrangles, digitized, and represented on GIS.
6. Identify Feasible Land Management Options: State and Non -State Land
Identify potential options4 (Note: This is a limited analysis of potential land use
and land management options for discussion purposes.)
7. Summarize findings and recommendations in a report. Review report with
Advisory Board and revise as necessary. Incorporate report (or a restatement of
the report) into the Plan.
d. Habitat Analysis
This element is intended to provide the basis for the management prescriptions
identified in the revised plan. The basic value that the plan is attempting to protect
and restore resources of the Kenai River and its associated habitat.5 For this reason
the ADFG data on fisheries, habitats, and probable deleterious effects upon the habitat
will form much of the basis for the management prescriptions of this Plan.
Note: At the time of this writing this material should be considered in tentative draft
form since ADFG has not had the opportunity to review the following_ descriptions.
1. Describe the fishery and the critical habitats associated with the fishery. Review
the previous sections of the plan that deal with the fishery, wildlife, and the river
sections (related to habitat) and update these.
2. Describe the current status of the fishery and its associated critical habitats.
Identify the principal forces impacting these habitats , those areas of critical
habitat that will probably be under the most intense development and recreation,
and provide a subjective analysis of the impacts to the fishery if current trends
continue. In large part, this will be a summary and restatement of the recent
ADFG studies, especially the 309 analysis. Prepare a report that summarizes the
results of this assessment.
3. Prepare GIS maps of critical instream structures and critical habitats. Format this
information to be consistent with the Borough's GIS analysis.
4. Review the wetland and floodplain information prepared in the Environmental
Analysis, identifying revisions to the mapped information relating to habitats, if
necessary.
4 Existing literature will be reviewed to identify effective, feasible management options.
5 This is a tentative, working goal statement until the results of the public meetings have been reviewed by the
Advisory Board and a formal policy has been adopted.
M
5. Identify the potential management solutions to stress reduction on the critical
habitat areas. This is to be a generalized analysis, with actual management
solutions that will be more fully developed in the Plan identified through later
interagency review.
3. Development of Concept Plan
Purpose: This part of the plan revision process is to consolidate the results of the
previous functional/geographic analysis, review potential resource and land
management solutions identified in the previous phase, and identify those solutions
appropriate for further consideration and incorporation in the revised Plan.
Comment: The previous analysis will have provided the basis for the development
of plan recommendations and will have resulted in a rough cut identification of
possible solutions. It will be necessary, however, to determine if these solutions are
mutually beneficial (or is there is some inherent inconsistency in their use) and to
describe these in a Concept Plan. The Concept Plan is a statement of the principal
resource findings and recommendations that are intended to be included in the
revised plan. The Concept Plan briefly describes (possibly in outline form) these
findings and recommendations, and is intended to be used by the public and
Advisory Board as the basis for draft plan formulation.
a. Review Environmental, Land Use, Habitat, and Recreation analyses and consider
potential recommendations. Principal staff reviews these analyses and develops an
integrated management strategy for incorporation in the Plan. This strategy may
consist of some or all of the previous functional/geographic recommendations, or may
include other strategies that are appropriate for inclusion.
b. Develop Concept Plan. A Concept Plan is prepared by DoL that consolidates the
principal findings and recommendations developed by the interagency group.
c. Review Concept Plan with Advisory Board.
d. Conduct public meeting, synthesize results for discussion with Advisory Board.
e. Advisory Board considers public meeting and written comments and recommends
changes.
4. Draft Kenai River Management Plan
Purpose: The draft Plan is intended to provide the Advisory Board and the public
with a formal document that can be reviewed over a period of approximately three
months.
a. Prepare draft Plan (DoL)
b. Review draft Plan with Advisory Board
c. Conduct public meeting and synthesize results for discussion with the Advisory
Board
d. Advisory Board approves plan as recommended or, more probably, incorporating the
results of public meeting discussion and Board review.
-7-
5. Kenai River Management Plan
a. Prepare final Plan (DoL).
b. Review final Plan with Advisory Board.
c. DoL consider results from written comment period and suggest changes to Board.
d. DoL makes appropriate changes to Plan based on Board suggestions.
e. Advisory Board recommends approval of plan to the DNR Commissioner and the
Borough Assembly.

To: Honorable Mayor John Williams & City Council
From: Thomas J. Manninen, City Manager
Date: April 16, 1996
RE: APRIL 16 MEETING WITH BRUCE PHELPS, DEPARTMENT OF
NATURAL RESOURCES (DNR), DIVISION OF LANDS MANAGER,
REGARDING CITY/DNR POTENTIAL LAND SWAP
Jack La Shot, Kim Howard, Tom Manninen and Mayor John Williams
met with Bruce Phelps, Manager DNR, Division of Lands, to discuss
potential land swaps with the existing City -owned 2,100 acres of
Kenai River wetlands area and available DNR property. After much
discussion, the City expressed interest in having the 12 lots
adjacent to the golf course property released so the City can
develop them and in acquiring the State-owned half of Birch
Island. Also, the City expressed interest in a site along
Candlelight on the Kenai Spur and next to the Kenai Central High
School for public use for the ice rink, as well as a parcel along
Beaver Loop for a potential gravel pit operation. Tentatively,
the City discussed trading or swapping two or three islands in
the Kenai River, from Beaver Creek towards the mouth of the
River, in exchange for the Birch Island property and releasing
the 12 lots by the golf course. Furthermore, a quid pro quo
exchange would be arranged for other properties, if agreed by
City Council, to be exchanged for available City of Kenai owned
wetlands or river bottom lands.
Mr. Phelps advised that there is a five or six month
"opportunity" window available to do these land swaps. There may
also be a potential of involving the Exxon Valdez Oil Trust
Council, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, the Alaska
Department of Parks, as well as DNR in eventual negotiation for
acquisition of the City's entire 2,100 acre balance of lands
along the Kenai River in exchange for money and/or lands for the
City to set up a "trust fund."
The general tone of the meeting was very positive. The window of
opportunity may provide the City with a unique chance to swap
City -owned Kenai River wetlands and river bottom lands for
DNR/State lands and/or money from the various State agencies. It
looks like a "win -win" situation for both the agencies interested
in preserving the Kenai River and the City of Kenai's interest in
developing a land trust "permanent fund."

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Williams and City Council f
THROUGH: Tom Manninen, City Manager0
FROM: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director(
DATE: April 12, 1996
SUBJECT: Fish Tax
FOR: City Council meeting of 4/17/96 - Information
I talked with Paul Dick, State Department of Revenue, on April 5, 1996 concerning the
city's share of the fish tax. He stated that 25% of the fish tax goes to the City of Kenai.
This is from shore base activity or the fish processors inside the city limits. The fish tax
is 3% of the ex -vessel value, or the price the processors pay the fishermen. This 3% is
split in half with one-half to the state and the other half split between the borough and the
city. Therefore:
1 /2 state =
1.50
1/4 borough =
.75
1/4 city =
.75
Total
3.0%
The following companies process fish inside the city limits:
1.
Dragnet (Cherrier & King)
2.
Salamatoff Seafoods
3.
Inlet Salmon Fisheries
4.
Columbia - Wards Cove
5.
Pacific Star Seafoods
There are many companies that unload fish in Kenai but process the fish outside the city
limits. Just a few include: Royal Pacific, Cook Inlet, Fish Hawk, and Whitney Foods.
The City of Homer is trying to change the fish tax method of payment from its present
payment based on "Port of Processing" to one based on "Port of Landing." They are
pushing for this through their legislator. If the method is changed to "Port of Landing,"
then Homer would receive the fish tax from the fish going through Homer to the Deep
Creek and Ninilchik processors.
This type of change may not be good for Kenai since the fish tax from Bristol Bay fish
processed in Kenai plants would then go to Bristol Bay.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF HOMER REQUESTING THE LEGISLATURE TO AMEND

REAPPORTION THE MUNICIPAL SHARE OF FISHERIES
BUSINESS TAX FROM THE POINT OF PROCESSING TO
THE PORT OF LANDING.
Sweiven
APR
n, �y
WHEREAS, the fisheries business tax collected by the State
of Alaska is based on the species, value of fish and whether
processed on or off shore; and
WHEREAS, the fisheries business tax is a complex formula
based on six different rates which are assessed on the value of
the respective seafood products; and
WHEREAS, under current Alaska Statute §43.75.015 and
§43.75.130 the fisheries business tax is divided 50% to the
State, 2596 to the Borough and 2596 to the City where the fish is
processed; and
WHEREAS, neither the State or the Borough and in most cases
the City where the fish is processed provide the fish dock, ice
service, crane service, man power etcetera; and
WHEREAS, the City of Homer provides all the above services
as the port of landing and if the apportionment of fisheries
business tax were based on the location of where the fish is
landed, it would increase the port revenues by approximately
$64,000, a highly conservative figure, per year.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the
City of Homer requesting the legislature to amend Alaska Statute
§43.75.015 and §43.75.130 to reapportion the municipal share of
State Raw Fish Tax from the point of processing to the port of
landing.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that copies of this Resolution be
mailed by the City Clerk to Governor Knowles, Speaker of the
House Phillips and Senator Torgerson.

RE: Chuda House, Kenai, Alaska
Dear Ms. Zaugg:
Cook Inlet Housing Authority (CZHA) owns and operates the Chuda House in Kenai,
Alaska. The Chuda House is a twenty-four (24) unit complex for the elderly,
handicapped, or disabled. The Chuda House is situated directly across from one side of
the Wildwood Correctional Facility.
CIHA has been presented with a copy of a letter from the Chuda House Tenant Council,
dated April 5, 1996. This letter, addressed to you, expresses the concerns of the tenants
living in the building in regards to the proposed . halfway house being operated on the
Correction Center's location. Cook Inlet Housing Authority wholeheartedly supports the
Tenant Council's opposition of the proposed actions of developing a halfway house.
CM requests that you consider the tenants of the Chuda request that this halfway house
not be established at the Wildwood Correctional Facility near. Chuda House. If you have
any questions regarding this, please feel free to call on Susie D Delgado, CIHA Housing
Manager, at (907) 276-8822.

,----_ _-----------------
TOMORROWI!11-OUTLOOK FORUM PLANNING: At the recent Board meeting it was agreed
to meet as a committee (for those who can participate) in a noon teleconference, Friday, April
4. to discuss the program for the proposed outlook forum. Enclosed with this fax are the
proposed goalstobjectives. agenda, date, etc. for the forum. We will fill in more detail as we
discuss the materials. I might mention that we see the Outlook Forum as focus element of our
overall strategy for marketing our products and accomplishments and achieving our role of
stimulating the economy. The brochure identified in the budget would be an attractive summary
of current programs/projects and anticipated accomplishments similar to the ARDOR Annual
Report you have been mailed. We will call you to see if you can participate in the
teleconference.
IRON CARBIDE MANUFACTURING PLANT: We will be having several members of the site
investigation team (Alyeska Holdings) with us next week to look at plant siting and other issues
in more detail. This project is not secret. but 1 would caution you in sharing information until
Alyeska Holdings has gone a little further in its investigations. 1 believe this is an honest
approach because we have Incomplete information. The Midrex Project realized an adverse
reaction in Mat -Su before it got to the preliminary environmental impact study stage (a fear of
big industry set in), driving the nail in the coffin for the project in the area. Should that same
concern arise here, we do not have enough information on key points to be responsive. In time,
and should we be able to get them to target a Kenai Peninsula site, then we will make a public
announcement.
RUSSIAN VISITORS: This week we are assisting in the hosting of Sakhalin all officials. An
International Sister Cities Association grant written by Sherry to provide for exchange of
newspaper journalists (with the Clarion editor as the targeted journalist from this area) has
been approved for $5,000.
NADONOUTH ENTERPRISE PROJECT: After the last Board meeting in which you
authorized my travel to the Washington. D.C. NADO briefing, several new things hit my plate,
including the intensified effort on the Iron Carbide Project and a May meeting with EDA in
California. We also heard that NADO would pay $1,000 toward the cost of travel and had high
hopes that the project manager, Lovelyn, would attend. Also, the NADO Partnership Director,
Kathleen Enright, has agreed to come to the Kenai to keynote a funding forum (a project on our
work program which Lovelyn is packaging) and speak at our YEP award program. Therefore,
have substituted myself with Lovelyn to take this trip. By combining other available project
money (volcano and YEP), costs will be covered without going into our base travel budget.
While in the Washington area, Lovelyn will do research germane to the Volcano Project.
EDA FUNDING FOR THE BIC: The project is still under consideration by the EDA Project
Review Committee. We don't expect action now until 1-2 weeks.
NEXT BOARD WORK MEETING IS PLANNED FOR APR. 18--I'LL DISCUSS THIS WITH YOU ON TEL

MEMORANDUM
o��ZfR6 �
Date: April 2, 1996
To: Thomas J. Manninen, City Manager
From: -,�!,,Wavid C. Burnett, Fire Chief
Subject: Promotions
Effective May 1, 1996, Jason A. Elson will assume the position of Assistant Fire
Chief, for the Kenai Fire Department and Gene Backstrom will assume the 1
position of Battalion Chief, in charge of training for the Kenai Fire Department.
In addition to meeting all qualification criteria, both appointments were based not 5
only on their length of service with the department, but also past performance as
Shift Officers and Leaders within their perspective duties. They have both
displayed good leadership abilities, not only in the performance of routine duties,
but also during emergency situations. I feel they will perform their new duties in
a competent and professional manner. U r
I am confident these personnel will handle their duties with care and oy",
commitment. I also feel confident these personnel will do a fine job in followingthe traditions and excellence that have already been established for this
department.
We will be testing for the Captain's position, per our discussion 3-29-96,
Engineer position per your instructions. I will be forwarding to you, per your
request, my recommendation to reduce manning levels within the department by
attrition as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to
contact me at any time. �(

EXTENDED
ONE WEEK
If you have not had a chance to get your
advertisement into the office for inclusion
in the 1996 Soldotna Recreation & Visitors
Guide, you have one last opportunity. The
deadline for submission of ads has been
extended for one week, until April 3rd.
Members who provide a visitor related
service are encouraged to take advantage
of this exceptional, low-cost marketing
tool. Past advertisers have indicated they
realize a good rate of return on their
investment in this publication. We will be
producing 20,000 guides, which are
distributed from visitor centers throughout
the Peninsula, as well as at the Log Cabin
in Anchorage. Don't delay -- contact the
office today to reserve your spot!
Local merchants and businesses are the backbone of our
-- local economy and it is important that we, as members of
the community, support these businesses. Owning and
operating a business, as you know, is no easy task. Many
hours and a great deal of effort are required just to mike ate„
_ _.profit, and although no one will dispute that a primary
reason for running a business is to make a living, -
oftentimes we forget what local business owners give
back to the community.:.
The newspaper contains many letters of thanks to local
businesses from non-profit organizations, clubs, -
extracurricular school events and activities, benefit fund
raisers and youth groups. Local businesses contribute
money, merchandise, advertising and in -kind donations to
community functions as a part their every day operations.
In addition to providing goods and services we need and/ p
or want, area businesses hire local residents, provide
summer jobs to our children, contribute to the property
tax base, and help in keeping our economy strong._ _
y�
-.-. �.� a
Whenever one mentions the importance of shopping
locally, the age-old argument that it costs more because of
our sales tax is sure to arise, so let's consider what these_ ,
sales tax dollars provide. Funding for area schools, road
maintenance, police protection and operation of public
facilities, are just a few. And these services do indeed,
benefit us all.
Remember, Buy Local Today
It just makes good sense!

CHAMBER BOARD UNDERGOES CHANGES '
It was with regret that the Soldotna Chamber Board of Directors accepted the resignation of President Nick:
Nelson. Nick served as Vice President in 1995 and was elected to serve as President for 1996. During his lure ,
on the Board, Nick has been an adamant proponent for the organization, and worked diligently on our programs
and events. His involvement and assistance at the Board level will surely be missed. The followingetterwas,
:
submitted to the Board of Directors of the Greater Soldotna Chamber of Commerce:
It is with great regret that I must submit my resignation as Chamber President and board member effective
immediately. Due to extenuating circumstances and personal problems, which have come up lately and y '
involvement with the VFW, I feel that I no longer can serve in my present capacity to the best interests ofe
Soldotna Chamber.==_ .
y _
I want each and every one of you to know that it has been a real pleasure and experience being apart of _ e Y
Chamber, both as a member and officer. I will miss working closely with you on Chamber issues, programs and p'
events. If there is any way I can still be of assistance, I will do my best to help. ,
Again, with deep regret and sincerity, I ask that you accept my resignation. - Respectfully, Preston "Nick" Nelson „
�'�i�i
The Chamber Board of Directors, members and staff wish Nick the best of hick in his endeavors and extend
appreciation for all of his work and efforts on our behalf. Sammie Cole has been nominated and elected.
President of the Soldoma Chamber for the remainder of the year. Sammie served a one year appointment on the
Board in 1995 and was recently elected to a three year term which will run through December 1998. She was, y
appointed Vice President in January 1996, and assumed the helm as the organization's chair on March Z?nd..
Sammie is an Escrow Officer for Southcentral Title Agency, and has been a resident of Soldotna since 1977. We- _
look forward to working with Sammie in her new capacity, and know the organization will be in good hands under
her guidance.
Clyde Johnson has been appointed Vice President of the Board. He is presently serving the second of his three
year elected term. Clyde is a Loan Officer with First National Bank of Anchorage, working out of their Kenai
Branch Office. He has also served as a management trainee and Seward Branch Manager for the company, as well
as serving on the Seward Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors. Clyde brings a wealth of experience and
know-how to his new position, and is a welcome addition to the Executive Board. - =
Congratulations to Sammie and Clyde, and thank you both for accepting these very demanding jobs!
ST. PATS CELEBRATION A SUCCESS
The 5th Annual Soldotna St. Patrick's Day Celebration was truly a successful
event enjoyed by many in the community. Special thanks to everyone who entered
the parade and to those who lined the streets to watch as the procession went by.
More thanks to Lo-Mark Furniture for the use of their lot for the parade staging
area, and Jackson Construction for snow removal so the cars and floats could
line up. Many local merchants purchased a packet or two of Lucky Leprechaun
Dollars, which were handed out to the spectators. and deserve a big thank you for
contributing towards the event.
Over 130 people attended the corned beef and cabbage dinner, and once again the
meal was superb thanks to the staff at the Tides Inn. Numerous businesses
donated items for the Irish Auction, and we nearly doubled the amount of funds
raised over last year. Our sincerest appreciation to all of you who provided
merchandise and services for this function, as well as to those who bought the
items throughout the night. The grand finale fireworks display was well received
by the residents of our community. We understand that this was the first -ever
fireworks display in Soldotna, and without the support and contributions from our
local businesses, it would not have been possible. The committee plans to feature a
fireworks display as part of the annual celebration each year. We would like to
extend our appreciation to Griz Smith (Fire Art by Griz) for the spectacular show,
Gary Hinkle (River Terrace RV Park) for the use of his lot and Guy Hayes
(Alaska's Great Skate) for plowing away the snow for the set up area.
We appreciate all of the ~coverage provided by the local media, and want to extend
a very special thank you to Sweeney's Clothing for donating advertising to
promote the activities. And, last but not least, kudos to committee members, Norm
Blakeley, Ric Buey and Mice Sweeney — another great idea, another wonderful
event! Again, our thanks to everyone who -helped to make this year's celebration a
memorable occasion.
