In 1985, the Conservancy sold the property to Alaska State Parks, and earmarked the proceeds for the establishment of an Alaska -based program. In May 1988, the Alaska office opened its doors. Since then, individuals, families, businesses and foundations have given their support, making it possible to build a solid conservation program for the "Last Frontier." Accomplishments since then include these highlights: 1989 • Established the Alaska Natural Heritage Program, a scientific database program, now operating in all 50 states, which inventories rare and unique plant and animal species. • Began offering educational adventures in Alaska's wilderness. The travel program continued until 1991. 1990 • Helped Business Park Wetlands Coalition purchase 5.3 acres of critical waterfowl habitat in midtown Anchorage. • Accepted a conservation easement from Gov. Jay and Bella Hammond on their Lake Clark homestead, ensuring that the land will remain in its natural state forever. • Cooperated with the Bureau of Land Management on an effort to protect 100 acres for the Steese-White Mountain Recreation Area near Fairbanks. 1991 4 Produced a 'how to" manual for the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Restoration Trustees on critical habitat identification and protection methods used by the Conservancy and other organizations, including rapid ecological assessment, a Conservancy -developed technique now in use internationally. • Initiated "Conservation Joint Venture", a statewide program to assist private landowners in managing their property for both environmental conservation and economic gain. • Heritage scientists conducted the first extensive survey of plant species and plant communities on the Pribilof Islands since the late 1800s. 1992 • Completed a contract for the State of Alaska for an eight -month biological analysis of 52 million acres which was used for completing the final selections to the State's 103 million acre entitlement under the 1959 Statehood Act. Alaska's first Biodiversity Conference staged by the Heritage Program, focusing on the importance of diversity and interconnectedness of life on earth and here in Alaska. recycled paper 1993 • -Transferred the Alaska Natural Heritage Program to a permanent home at the University of Alaska. • Helped successfully conclude an 18-year effort to protect 24,000 acres from logging in Kachemak Bay State Pz by mediating the price agreement among four parties, and providing scientific information to funding sources on the biological importance of the acreage. • Took interim title to 42,000 acres of old growth rainforest on Afognak Island, pending long-term habitat protection legislation; the land is within one of 11 sites identified by TNC needed to restore species injured by the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill. • Helped oil spill Restoration Trustees on identification and protection methods for critical habitat in the 11,000- square mile area affected by the 1989 spill. • Voluntarily assisted in negotiations between government agencies and Eyak Native Corporation in an effort to protect nearly 100,000 acres of old growth temperate rainforest near Cordova. • Acquired, in on -going effort since 1991, 820 acres of critical habitat for waterfowl, mammals and fish for inclusion in the Palmer Hay Flats State Game Refuge. • Accepted three donated conservation easements on 160-acre homesteads, lying adjacent to Chugach State Park, to which the easements have been transferred for long-term management. 1994 • - Transferred title to 42,000 acres of old growth forest to the new Afognak Island State Park. • -Completed a strategic plan for a Native village corporation in Southcentral Alaska for corporation lands, to he . protect significant biological resources, e.g. brown bears and salmon, and promote compatible economic activity. •- Facilitated a donation by Klukwan Iron Ore Corp. of 1,600 acres within and adjacent to the State's Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve to the state park and forest, and to the Chilkat Indian Village. • , Completed, together with state and federal agencies and private groups, phase one of a Kenai River watershed conservation program, whose long-term goal is a public/private partnership which will also facilitate compatible economic activity. • - In the Pribilof Islands, supported for the third year childrens' nature day camps, organized by village leaders and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; the camps combine Native traditional knowledge and Western science in teaching about the unique island ecosystem and the human role in its protection. 1995 • - Secured an option to buy land on a world-famous fly-fishing creek in Western Alaska, to achieve permanent public access, protect Native Alaskan subsistence use and begin creation of a 7,000-acre trout sanctuary. • Began phase two of the Kenai River watershed project; a TNC field representative is helping the community -based conservation effort. Published a user-friendly handbook, Understanding and Conserving the -Kenai River. • Wrote Guide for Planning Ecotourism on Alaska Native Lands to assist rural landowners in protecting their lands while achieving economic benefits. • -Established the Alaska Natural Permanent Fund within the Conservancy to support effective, long-term conservation of Alaska's natural heritage.

To accomplish this mission, The Nature Conservancy has relied, in large part, on the acquisition and proper management of individual tracts of land. This method has resulted in the protection of thousands of rare, threatened, and endangered species. 7 In -recent years, however, The Nature Conservancy has recognized that the best way to protect rare species and to foster the vitality of natural processes is to consider the larger, ecosystem -wide landscape. Therefore, The Nature Conservancy, is now shifting its emphasis to, large-scale ecosystems, or 'bioreserves." "Ile goal of this effort protect seven*:five .isto outstanding ecosystems in the United States, Latin America, and the Pacific, and to do so in �ways recognize that the needs of both people and nature. r `The bioreserve effort continues the science -based approach of The Nature Conservancy. Each bioreserve must bean ecologically viable lan4scape, typically a watershed, which includes one ormore of the following features: •1` M1A^k_- P^: „ titY J+'s +J'T�..a Ji 3- Concentrations of rare species; i High -quality examples of terrestrial or aquatic communities which are endangered or inadequately protected; large, relatively _yndistu ed ample of a natural community once ex, teristic of an ecoregion c whi'h is now fragmented or.de'd ed; -A critical migratory stopover point or, corridor. "Working on such a large scale has presented The Nature Conservancy.with new challenges. While The Nature Conservancy_ still works to acquire certain critical naturil, areas within each bioreserve, it is .neither practical nor desirable to purchase all of the land in these areas. Therefore, The Nature Conservancy is, forging creative partnerships, working closely with residents, landowners, business and industry, governments, an� other p#vate. 'And ,,,,organizations. in many cases, the Conservancy is working to meet the economic needs of the people in these areas by promoting compatible human uses. As a result, many of �these bioreserves are becoming proving grounds for sustainable economic development. y. Over the long run, bioreserves will become models of how people can ,live with. nature. They will become a network of multi -purpose protected areas which conserve a diversity -of species in naturally functioning ecosystems, where people live and work in harmony with the environment. A sampling of The Nature Conservancy's 75 Bioreserves: The Virginia Coast Reserve was one of the first bioreserve efforts of The Nature Conservancy. This area on Virginia's Eastern Shore contains the largest stretch of undisturbed barrier islands on the Atlantic Coast, is host to several endangered species, and serves as part of the Atlantic migratory corridor. The Nature Conservancy has acquired part or all of 14 barrier islands, and is now working to protect water quality and preserve the Eastern "Shore's farmingtradition b encouraging organic agriculture and designing' Y uragir►g rg b'n compatible waterfront development projects. , t r At the 37;000-acre Tallgrass Prairie Preserve in Oklahoma, the Conservancy, is working to re-establish the tallgrass prairie ecosystem.

Scott & Associates, Inc., has worked diligently since November when you contracted for a feasibility study on the placement of a Challenger Learning Center in Kenai. We are ready to make a progress report to you about our initial findings and conceptual ideas. Committee members will be present at the February 7 council meeting for a brief presentation. Discussing the project at this interval, we hope, will prompt questions forming in your minds about feasibility. Your questions will help us prepare a responsive study. The Challenger Center for Space Science Education has invited the submittal of Kenai's application for designation as the Alaska Challenger Learning Center at its April 29, 1996 board meeting in Alexandria, Virginia. The application should be in Alexandria by April 8. A response will follow by May 1. In order to raise the necessary capital funding for construction of the facility, receiving the powerful site designation now is very important. The council's approval of the $10W application fee contingent upon receiving and adopting the feasibility study is requested. The council's action assures the Challenger Center of our commitment to the project and provides continuing inspiration for the all volunteer steering committee who have invested many hours in the project to this point.

The Challenger Learning Center Steering Committee has preliminarily determined: Committee Reports Mission Launch Crew Report (Facility and Program Design • Design and build the facility to allow for future expansion. • Design parking with shared -facility use in mind (i.e. MAPTS & Fire Training Center building). • The first phase of the project should accommodate three activity centers requiring about 10,000 square feet (Homers Pratt Museum, the Keua. FAA facility and the Kencd Visitor Center are dl about 10.000 square feet). The activity centers include: - a "bands -on" or interactive exploratorium concept related to the sciences and industry or technology (about 3,000 square feet). - the Challenger Learning Center (approximately 2,000 square feet). - a small auditorium or lecture area (about 3,000 square feet) for Challenger Learning Center orientations, classroom rental. presentations and/or lectures. The room will include a large screen for viewing NASA missions, computer internet monitoring, video tape showing and the facility should be fully A-V equipped. - Undesignated space will. be used for reception and storage area. • Develop the design in a shape encouraging simple architectural remedies to address aesthetics. Complicated designs are expensive and complicate future expansions. • Reserve three to four acres, near the pond, of the 40 acre Baron Park Subdivision No 7. Tract A-1. located on Marathon Road and currently leased to the University of Alaska from the City of Kenai (see attached exhibit). • Name the facility The Science and Industry Institute of Alaska (SHA). These potential programs and groups were identified as probable users of services and space provided in the Institute facility by the Challenger Learning Center program during the first phase of development- 0 Grades K-12 public, private and home schools statewide • Leadership training (leadership, team building, decision making, etc.) probably provided by a contract service with the potential of qualifying for advanced training or college credit The training would target in -state, out -of -the area corporations, large, in -area employers (School district, hospital, government etc.) K.

Bo* 2488 • Kenai, Alaska 99611- 2488 Phone (907) 2835130/Faa (907) 283-5918 • Board of director and non-profit volunteer training. • Summ r space camps in conjunction with the Federal Aviation Agency. • Youth and adult organizations - developmental experiences. • Private youth summer camps (as part of their program). • Tourist mini -flight programs. • The general public in response to notable science and technology speakers. Potential future development might include: • Applications of virtual reality technology • A space observatory • An I -Max Theater Mission Control Committee (Revenue /Operating Cost and Ownership Design) • Ownership of the facility by the City of Kenai and leasing the facility's operation to the University of Alaska as a science/technology instructional/educational site. • Develop the facility with an educational focus. supported by ancillary activities and facility uses appealing to a local, state-wide and visitor industry audience. • Operate a self-supporting year-round program. (Revenue potential in the first year or tux) Lill likely be sluggish unless greatly advanced program nurketing is undertaken. Expenses for the first feu years Lill include capital costs for equipping ofjfice(s) and audio-visual facilities). • Generate $200,000 annually E - 11 DW participants to support the expense of operating. (Revenue projections are based in -part on the number of state-utcle school users visiting Pratt Museum. 7.700+ students visited during 1994-95 school year. Many combine the Alaska Coastal Studies Center trip to Peterson Bay, houvever the facility is too small to accommodate all of them. Schools from all of southcentral and part uxny into the interior of Alaska are included in this attendance figure. Feuer school students attend the hnaginarium in Anchorage, a smaller size and program scope science exploration attraction). • Anticipated expenses of $200,000 annually includes personnel contractual services, commodities and supplies and one-time equipment purchases. A brochure design concept, using color photography JUL a two -fold. 8 1 /2 X 14 inch format The committees' discussion resulted in the following recommendations: • Produce 500 color brochures, using color at least on one side • Use photos of children at the Challenger Center in Seattle • Keep the copy simple and oriented to support of the facility, program(s), facility design. ownership, target or user groups, operating. • Allow flexibility for future changes as the project concept evolves • Use the Challenger Learning Center logo on the piece W Presentations (20-30 minutes long) are slated for Kenai Rotary on January 22. Phi Delta Kappa. January 23. Kenai Chamber, January 31. Nikiski Chamber on February 1, Soldotna Chamber on February 6 and Kenai City Council On February 7. The purpose of the presentations is to ignite interest and develop a support base about the concept as well as receiving general comment and feedback. The presentation format includes: • Communications Committee opening comments and introduction of the video tape The Challenger Center • Video tape • Launch Crew Committee will discuss ideas on facility and program design • Mission Control Committee talk about ownership, operating costs and revenue potential • Personal experience of a steering committee member who has observed Challenger Learning Center program first hand . • Communications close with introduction of anyone present who is on the steering committee, then asking for questions and comments. ital Investment Committee It is anticipated that the core funding will be drawn from various state agencies and programs as well as corporate donors. municipal and state legislative support. In other challenger centers across the nation. corporate sponsorship has been successfully solicited from companies contracted and sub -contracted by NASA to build space craft. Some of those companies may be even more approachable if they, do business in Alaska particularly with the Poker Fiats rocket/satellite launch facility or with the Kodiak launch facility. Corporate sponsorship opportunities exist not only in the partnership approach to building the facility but in purchasing and creating displays and equipment for use within the facility. This partial list illustrates potential funding sources for the Challenger Learning Center: Alaska Science and Technology Foundation Alaska Aerospace Administration Alaska State Legislature Corporate Donors City of Kenai If the scope of the project is MOW square feet and commercial building costs are computed a $150 per square foot the base cost of building the facility is $15 million dollars. Added to the base cost is the equipment package for Challenger Learning Center ranging between $850,00041 million. Additional site preparation such as landscaping, equipment and displays will realistically push the project to about $3 million dollars for the start-up phase. Facilities with an educational/tourism vent currently planned for the Kenai Peninsula include a volcano center at approximately $5 million (no site cost included) slated for the southern peninsula coastal area and Seward's Alaska SeaLife Center estimated at nearly $20 million. A Marine Wildlife Refuge is also planned for the Homer area and costs information is currently being obtained by the committee. 3 Draft Mission Statement (encompassing committee's shared vision) The Science and Industry Institute of Alaska (SIIA) serves as a statewide educational center dedicated to the advancement of learning. The activities of the Institute utilize innovative technology to foster relevant learning in mathematics and science, improve communication abilities, and build leadership skills for all ages. A cornerstone of the SIIA is the Alaska Challenger Learning Center where motivating, interactive lessons used space exploration as a theme for instruction. Annie RoskeII, Regional Director, Challenger Center for Space Science Education in Virginia has invited Kenai's application for site designation at the April 29, 1996 board meeting. The timeline now reflects the committee's current schedule and the points of Interaction with the Challenger Center of Space Science Education. The application must be accompanied by a $1,000 fee. In the next two months research and analysis will be completed for the economic development component of the report along with continued public presentations about the project. The draft report will be circulated to the committee in early March and the final report presented to the Kenai City Council at its meeting on April 3.

Freas, City Clerk City of Kenai DATE: February 6, 1996 RE: DISCUSSION WITH MAYOR WILLIAMS Mayor Williams telephoned me this afternoon from Washington, DC and asked that I forward the following information and requests to you: Mayor Williams had an extremely successful visit with Alaska's congressional deletion regarding the proposed Aircraft Fire Training Facility and the relocation of the Antenna Farm. Mayor Williams requests that Administration be directed to immediately proceed with plans involving FAA and the transfer of the Antenna Farm property to the City of Kenai. Mr. Andy Billick is now the lead person at FAA in Anchorage and will be the person city personnel will be working with. The reason to begin the process at this time is that Senator Stevens wants all information cost information for required clean-up of the site in the event the transfer takes place. Stevens' intent is to include these costs in the supplemental appropriation bill for the upcoming budget. The transfer of the site will, in all probability, include negotiations for construction of some new facilities for the FAA in Kenai (a 4,000 sq. ft. addition to the existing FAA facility). Preliminary discussions have already taken place with Manninen, Ernst, La Shot and FAA. Mr. Billick is aware of the discussions and is very interested in proceeding with the project. Williams also had an interesting visit with the regional director of the Challenger Learning Center in Alexandria, Virginia. Williams requests council's approval of the $1,000 application fee in order to proceed with the application for designation of Kenai as a Challenger Learning Center site. He has discussed the matter with the -1- congressional delegation and several other people regarding the future of the facility and all are behind it. Lee Gorsuch, University Chancellor, also attended his meeting with Senator Stevens and they discussed the future of the 45 acre site. Gorsuch is also very interested in the operation as well. Williams reported he had the opportunity of attending a dinner sponsored by approximately 19 governors on behalf of President Clinton. He was able to talk with President Clinton again as well. Governor Knowles, Governor Sheffield, Jim Ayres (Chief Assistant to Governor Knowles), Bill Allen of VECO, Ashley Reed and several other dignitaries from Alaska attended the dinner. Governor Knowles is planning a second trip to Washington at which time he and several of his staff will be visiting the Challenger Learning Center. Mayor Williams will be available in his hotel room if you need to discuss the above matters with him during the council meeting. He will be returning to Kenai on Thursday. cif -2- 02-02-1996 11:49AM FROM PLANNING/ASSESSING* TO 62833014 KENAI PENINSULA BOROUGH 144 NORTH BINKLEYISTREET SOLDOTNA, ALASKA 99669-7599 PLANNING DEPARTMENT LAND MANAGEMENT!

Freas, City Clerk Introduced Adopted: Effective: Approved By Finance: (1/11/96) jps January 17, 1996 February 7, 1996 February 7, 1996 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Williams and City Council THROUGH: Tom Manninen, City Manager FROM: Keith Komelis, Public Works Director DATE: January 9, 1996 SUBJECT: STP Disinfection Modification FOR: Council meeting of 1/17/96 Vasey Engineering has completed the design work for converting the disinfection method at our Sewer Treatment Plant (STP) from gas to liquid using sodium hypochlorite and sodium bisulfite. The final cost estimate (which is attached) for equipment and contractor work totals $56,622. This is about $20,000 higher than we estimated. The reason it is higher is because we want to install an oxidation reduction potential, ORP, system. This system could pay for itself in less than one (1) year by properly monitoring and controlling the chemicals being added. Please see Vasey Engineering's attached letter dated January 4, 1996. Some funds can be transferred from our O&M budget in STP because we will no longer be using gas disinfection. I suggest we use a total construction cost of $60,000 and make the following transfers in the STP budget: From: R&M Supplies $ 3,000 R&M 9,000 Contingency 12,000 To: STP Modification Construction $24,000 With: An existing STP Modification Budget $36,000 Total Construction $60,000 Please keep in mind that our plant operators are going to act as the general contractor to order, set up, and install much of this equipment plus subcontract plumbing and electrical. Page 2 STP Disinfection Change Council meeting 1/17/96 This will not only be a great savings to the city, but we feel it will end up as a much better facility.

This system was selected for two reasons; 1) to provide a monitoring and control system that will precisely regulate the amount of chemicals (hypochlonte and bisulfite) used in the plants disinfection process and 2) to save on chemical usage costs as a result of the precision monitoring this system is capable of. Chemical savings using the Strantrol system over conventional residual control systems are significant In Port Angeles, Washington, the operators claimed that the Strantrol units reduced consumption of their hypochlonte and bisulfite use by about 50 percent. These savings are significant considering chemical use for Kenai has been estimated at about SW,000 per year. It is necessary to explain some of the basic concepts of the ORP (oxidation reduction potential) system to understand why it is unique. While residual -based control of disinfection has been the standard method of chlorine control in wastewater treatment for years, the industry has become increasingly aware that water disinfection is better managed by measuring chlorine demand as well as free chlorine residual. Chorine in aqueous solution generates an electromotive force measurable in millivolts. The strength of this force is directly proportional to the oxidative strength of the chlorine (hypochlorite) solution. The higher the concentration of chlorine, the higher the voltage. Conversely, the higher the concentration of reductants, the lower the voltage. Therefore, the ORP of a chlorinated system at any given time is a measurement of the current chlorine demand of the system. Chlorine demand is primarily a function of residual, load, pH, flow and temperature. Residual testing determines or measures only one of these variables. Because ORP is basically the cumulative effect of all five, ORP can be used to precisely determine the required dosage to meet demand at all times. While there are other companies currently manufacturing ORP controllers, these other systems have significant limitations for wastewater chlorination / dechlorination processes and are typically used in other industrial processes. The main limitation of these other systems is that it is necessary to compensate for the time of these chemical reactions. This is accomplished through an algorithm input into a microprocessor within the Strantrol unit. No other systems currently on the market have this capability. There are also significant differences on the design of the monitoring probes that make the Strantrol system unique. A majority of the major cities in the State of Washington have sole -sourced the Strantrol system for their wastewater treatment plants. I hope this letter answers your questions. Please do not hesitate to call with any comments. Sincerely, VASEY ENGINEERING Christopher A. Arts, P.E.

KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES December 20, 1995 Page 8 number -one priority or a priority. Measles agreed that the completion of the highway should be a much higher priority than the bike path. Kornelis further explained the new ratings of the state's highway, etc. projects. Kornelis noted the DOT changed the priority of the Soldotna end of the Spur Highway from a number - one to a number -three priority as a National Highway Project. They also left the bike trail as a number -one priority under the TRACK program. Measles suggested the resolution be re -written and remove all references to the bike trail, emphasizing the completion of the highway project and not the bike trail (heading, the therefore paragraph and, remove the fifth whereas). Councilman Smalley suggested a second resolution be produced for support of the Unity Trail. Williams suggested Resolution No. 95-80 state that the completion of the Spur Highway Project was moved to a number -three priority and should be upgraded to a number -one priority. MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED to table Resolution No. 95-80 and present it at the next meeting with a complete re -write of this document, speaking specifically to the Spur Highway Expansion Project and a separate resolution speaking to the pedestrian bike bath. Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. SO ORDERED. C-5. Resolution No. 95-81 - Recognizing the Social and Economic Importance of the Alaska Commercial Salmon Fishing Industry and Opposing the F.I.S.H. Initiative. MOTION: Councilman Moore MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 95-81 and Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion. There were no public comments. Williams noted that he included copies of Resolution 91-2 to point out that the council has had a policy of being very careful between its support of either the sport or commercial fishing industries. However, the council has always stated that proper biological information and proper KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES December 20, 1995 Page 9 biological allocation should be uppermost in the State's desire to control the fishery and the fisheries should not come under a political situation in regard to allocation. Councilman Moore explained the Initiative, on the surface, may appear harmless, but if looking at it more closely, it could impact Cook Inlet more than in any other part of the state. The problem with the Initiative in that it is not region -specific, but based on statewide salmon harvest. Some of the definitions of the Initiative are that harvest need is harvest capability or what you need equals what you are capable of harvesting. Also, the Initiative is based on projections and not actual runs. Moore also added that of the top ten taxpayers in the city, three of them are fish processors. Councilman Bannock stated he knows little about salmon harvesting and would prefer not making a decision until the other side of the topic is heard. Bannock added, he would not be comfortable in voting on the resolution at the meeting. Ron Rainey - Rainey reported that a representative of F.I.S.H. Fairness in Salmon Harvest is scheduled to speak at the Kenai Chamber of Commerce in the next few weeks. He also would like to hear both sides of the issue. Councilman Bookey agreed with waiting on a vote until after hearing both sides of the topic. Williams suggested a change be made in the "now, therefore" paragraph. The paragraph should read: Now, therefore,..., Alaska, recognizes the social and economic importance of the Alaska commercial salmon fishing industry to our community and to the State of Alaska and that we oppose the passage of the F.I.S.H. Initiative. An addition to the last whereas should also be made, i.e., ...Board of Fisheries through sound biological information rather than political consideration. MOTION: Councilman Bannock MOVED to table Resolution No. 95-81 and Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion. Measles requested the resolution be brought back for consideration of council at the January 17, 1996 meeting. Moore noted that date would be after the deadline for submitting KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES December 20, 1995 Page 10 signatures for the legislature. Measles stated they could proceed with the signatures, and the Legislature would not have acted on anything at that time. There would still be time to address the matter with the Legislature. Moore added that if the Legislature does not act, the Board of Fisheries will have to vote on it. It is more than the Legislature involved. C-6. Resolution No. 95-82 - That the City of Kenai Goes on Record Supporting the Permit Applications of the Beaver Creek Bank Restoration and Protection Group Submitted to Various Agencies and Directs That This Resolution be Sent to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and to the Applicants. MOTION: Councilman Measles MOVED for adoption of Resolution No. 95-82 and Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion. Ron Rainey - Rainey (the applicant requesting the resolution) explained there are two hurdles to cross: one, the permit to get the project underway and, two, requesting matching funds from the Exxon Valdez Trustee Council for the project. Rainey added there is no one else in the city of Kenai applying for the funds. However, there are 66 other applicatants in other areas requesting funds. Williams asked Kornelis if the city applied for Exxon Valdez Restoration funding for projects inside the city. Kornelis answered yes. Rainey corrected his statement as no other individuals in the city have applied for matching funds. VOTE: There were no objections to the motion. 80 ORDERED.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE COUNCII. OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, recognizes the social and economic importance of the Alaska commercial salmon fishing industry to our community and to the State of Alaska and that we oppose the passage of the F.I.S.H. Initiative. PASSED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, this seventh day of February, 1996. ATTEST: H. Raymond Measles, Vice Mayor Carol L. Freas, City Clerk The F.I.S.H. Initiative is not fair H What is the F.I.S.H. Initiative all about? *The F.I.S.H. Initiative seeks to give absolute priority to sport and personal use fishing over commercial fishing, by allocating 5% of the total statewide salmon harvest to sport and personal use fisheries. *A 5% allocation of the statewide salmon harvest is equal to a 1000% increase over existing sport and personal use harvest levels. *The F.I.S.H. Initiative allocates 5% statewide, not by region or stock. This leaves the Board of Fisheries no latitude to deal with fishery reliance or patterns of use, which differ by area. The 5% Allocation is unrealistic and Deceptive. *The allocation would be based on projected "harvest capability" each year, or how much the Board of Fisheries thinks the sport fishery may be able to catch, not what is needed to maintain quality sportfishing experiences, food for Alaskan residents and viable commercial fisheries. *Even though sport and personal use fishermen can't catch the 5% allocation, commercial fisheries will have to be restricted or eliminated in an attempt to guarantee the projected level of harvest. *In many regions, angler catches of sport target species already far exceeds 5% of the area harvest of some salmon stocks. For example, in Upper Cook Inlet 93% of chinook and 46% of coho were caught in the recreational fisheries in 1993. During that same year in Upper Cook Inlet, sport anglers also caught 7% of sockeye, 42% of pink and 15% of chum salmon. If the F.I.S.H. Initiative passes -Alaska loses! *Fish lose. The healthy, abundant salmon runs Alaska enjoys today are a result of successful management plans developed by the Alaska Board of Fisheries and implemented by the Alaska Department of Fish & Game. When it comes to maintaining salmon production levels necessary to meet Alaska's goal of conservation and fair sharing, too many fish on the spawning grounds can be just as disruptive to the balance as too few. Management decisions that could lead to additional in -river effort should be carefully assessed with an eye toward habitat protection. The preservation of our fragile fisheries resources is an important responsibility that shouldn't be driven by the vagaries of politics and misinformation. *Resident anglers lose. The F.I.S.H. Initiative creates an incentive for commercialization of Alaska's sport fisheries. As the number of non-resident anglers increases, their "harvest capability" will climb at the expense of our residents. UCIDA February 1996 *Commercial Fishermen lose. Since the allocation will be reserved based on projected harvest capability, not actual need, commercial fisheries will be restricted if there is a chance of affecting the success rate (harvest capability) of a priority fishery. Any commercial fishery that harvests even a small portion of fish destined for sport or personal use areas could be closed until the priority users get all they want. *Public loses. Many people in Alaska and elsewhere enjoy eating salmon, but not all of them can or want to catch their own. Taking fish from commercial fishermen deprives the consumers they serve. The public benefits from commercial fishing contributions to the state general fund, as well as business opportunities provided by the seafood industry. The seafood industry is Alaska's biggest private employer and is second only to oil in revenue generated for the state. From gear suppliers to grocery stores, thousands of Alaska small businesses thrive on a healthy seafood industry. *State of Alaska loses. Granting a resource priority which benefits a special interest is contrary to Alaska's commitment to multiple use principles. The F.I.S.H. Initiative discourages investment in an existing industry, will displace resident fishermen of all types and could negatively impact tourism. Jobs could be lost statewide. The seafood industry is the state's largest employer with a labor force of nearly 35,000 each year. The seafood industry fuels much of Alaska's rural economy. 80% of Alaska's salmon permit holders are residents. Some fisheries are as much as 86% resident. These fishermen hire thousands of residents each year and thousands more are employed in the processing and support sector. The Initiative places a significant number of those jobs at risk. The F.I.S.H. Initiative discourages investment in the salmon industry at a time when value- added processing and new marketing techniques are increasing the number of individual Alaskan's benefiting from the industry. Alaska has been marketed to tourists as a unique place to get high caliber fishing experience. Packing our rivers with people is sure to diminish the quality of the experience and kill the Alaska mystique.

It seems appropriate. how- ever. to note that anv system which closes cants will necessarily create a tension with -article VIII. In such cases assumine that the exclusionary criterion is not per se im- permissible, our decisions suggest that de- manding scrutiny is -appropriate. We alluded to this in State v. Ostrosky, 667 P.2d 1184 (Alaska 1983) in discussing the interplay between the constitutionally allowed limited entry system, which was permitted by amendment to article VIII, section 15, and the common use and no ` exclusive right of fisheries clauses. We stated: [S]ince the common use clause of section 3 and the no exclusive right of fishery clause of section 15 remain in the consti- tution, the premise of the argument is that whatever system of limited entry is imposed must be one which, consistent with a feasible limited entry system, en- tails the least possible impingement on the common use reservation and on the no exclusive right of fishery clause. The ,argument concludes that free transfe ability does not entail the least possible impingement on the anti -exclusionist val- ues which these provisions reflect. ... [T]he premise of this argument is logical. Id. at 1191. We expressed the same theme in Johns v. Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission, 758 P.2d 1256 (Alaska 1988) concerning the obligation of the Commer- cial Fisheries Entry Commission to estab- lish an optimum number of entry permits. We stated in Johns: In [Ostrosky ], we noted that there is a tension between the limited entry clause of the state constitution and the clauses of the constitution which guarantee open fisheries. We suggested that to be con- stitutional, a limited entry system should impinge as little as possible on the open fishery clauses consistent with the con- stitutional purposes of limited entry, namely, prevention of economic distress to fishermen and resource conservation. Ostrosky .... The optimum number provision of the Limited Entry Act is the mechanism by w is entry is meant to be restricted to its constitution- al purposes. Without this mechanism, limited entry has the potential to be a system which has the effect of creating an exclusive fishery to ensure the wealth of permit holders and permit values, while exceeding the constitutional pur- poses of limited entry. Because this risk of unconstitutionality exists. the (Com- mercial Fisheries Entry Commission) should not delay in embarking on the opt mum number process, except where there is a substantial reason for doing so. Id., 758 P.2d at 1266 (footnote omitted). Most recently in Owsichek, we suggested that section 17 of article VIII. the uniform application clause. "may require `more stringent review' of a statute than does the equal protection clause in cases involving natural resources." Owsichek, 763 P2d at 498 n. 17 (quoting Gilman v.-Vartin, 662 P.2d 120, 126 (Alaska 1983)). We also cited with approval Justice Rabinowitz's dissent in Ostrosky, 667 P.2d at 1196 which em- ploys a least restrictive alternative ap- proach in view of the "highly important interest running to each person within the state" by virtue of the common use clause. 763 P.2d at 492 n. 10.

I would like to request that I be able to change the appropriations within my Finance Department budget in order to purchase a computer (PC) for my personal use. 2. I originally wanted to wait until next fiscal year to budget for, and purchase, a new PC. My employees, however, have encouraged me to purchase a new machine right away and I have come to the conclusion myself that I can become more effective in performing my job if I have a dedicated PC to use. 3. At the current time, I share two common PCs with the other Departmental employees. This arrangement is proving increasingly cumbersome for the following reasons: o Neither of the two PCs I share will operate all of the software I need to perform my job. I have to access the IBM Advanced System 36 computer which contains our accounting system through the old PSI Model 30 computer while, on the other hand, all of my word processing and spreadsheet work is performed on the shared office 486 SX PC. This arrangement is absurd as I frequently have to jump back and forth between computers when I am analyzing accounting data in a spreadsheet format. o I currently share both computers with the other departmental employees. As a result, situations continue to arise over which user has top priority. o The Finance Department is using, in some cases, 10 year old software programs which are no longer manufactured or maintained by vendors. As an example, we are still using Microsoft Multiplan, a pre -Windows spreadsheet package from the middle 1980s, and all of the manuals for the program have been lost. o In my day-to-day working style I utilize a computer extensively, often over 4 hours a day. I compose all of my own correspondence on a word processor and prepare my own documents, which is a change from the manner in which my predecessor operated. As a result, without a dedicated computer, I have been less efficient in accomplishing my duties here. o Most other Department Heads have dedicated PCs on their desks and, in some cases, utilize them less on a day-to-day basis than I utilize our shared PCs. 4. In reviewing our budget, my employees and I feel that we have unencumbered funds within our repair and maintenance account which could be reappropriated to purchase computer equipment. If this request is approved, I would propose to purchase a state of the art PC system with current off -the -shelf software packages and, in addition, further propose that we pay a small fee to a technician to have the PC connected to our IBM Advanced System 6. The total cost of all of these purchases should not exceed $3,000. 5. I hope you look favorably on this request and approve it.

SUBJECT: Correction To Thompson Park Water And Sewer Improvement Special Assessment District Final Assessment Roll 1. In reviewing the Thompson Park Water And Sewer Special Assessment District final assessment roll, which has been formally filed with the Clerk, staff members noticed an error with the final recommended special assessment to be assessed against the two lots owned by the City of Kenai. 2. The error stemmed from a spreadsheet mistake. In the error, the special assessments for the two lots based on the proportionate share of the actual costs of the project were properly calculated and listed on the assessment roll, but they were not carried properly into the last column which contains the final recommended special assessments. The proper final recommended special assessments for these two lots are as follows: Parcel Number 041-080-16 - $20,058 instead of $30,236 Parcel Number 041-080-18 - $4,842 instead of $7,298 3. This error has no imnact on the recommended assessments for any other lots, as all other recommended assessments were correctly calculated and shown on the final assessment roll. The effect of the error will be completely restricted to City finances. It will reduce the annual appropriation required to make assessment payments on the two lots and, in turn, decrease the future recoupment of costs back into the Water and Sewer Special Revenue Fund. If uncorrected, however, the error could cause any future individuals who purchase the lots from the City to pay more in assessments than they possibly should. 4. KMC.16.10.120 provides guidance on how such errors are to be corrected. The Code say, "After the public hearing, the Council may correct any error or inequality in the assessment roll". Accordingly, I would ask that this error be corrected when the final assessment roll is approved on February 7. %p L- David & Shirley Wallingford PO Box 2912 Kenai, Alaska 99611 January 23, 1996 City of Kenai City Clerk 210 Fidalgo Ave., Suite 200 Kenai, Alaska 99611 Dear Ms. Freas, In accordance with the Kenai Municipal Code, Section 16.10.110 and 16-10.160 we wish to reserve our legal right to appeal the final assessment of the Thompson Park Water and Sewer for the lots which we own. The main objection to the assessment role dated December 21, 1995 is that parcels number 049 270 06, 049 270 07, and 049 270 08 no longer exist. They have been replace with parcel number 049 270 21. Sincerely, 0 Page 1 02/01/96 City of Kenai 210 Fidalgo Ave, Ste 200 Kenai AK 99611-7794 Dear Mr. Mayor and Council Members, As owner of parcel #049 270 19, located at 240 Eisenhower Lane in Thompson Park subdivision, I am writing to formally state my objection to the amount that I am being assessed for the recently completed sewer and water project in Thompson Park. I feel that the method used to calculate the assessment puts a disproportionate share of the project cost on a few property owners with larger lots, while putting a disproportionately small share of the cost on the smaller lots. In essence, the owners of the larger lots are subsidizing the project for the owners of the small lots. This scheme makes little sense in light of the fact that the small lots are the ones that benefit the most by the project. Basically you are asking me to pay in excess of $7,000.00 for the exact same service that some of my neighbors are receiving for $1,000.00 or less. Please take a moment and ask yourselves how you would feel if YOU were charged 700`s more than your neighbors for the same service. In past meetings it has been stated that the rational for using this method for assessment is that the larger lots might someday subdivide. This logic has several flaws; a) Because of the shape and terrain of my lot, it would be virtually impossible for me to subdivide. b) I feel that it is unreasonable to penalize someone for what they may or may not do in the future. c) This does not account for the fact that someone may possibly build multi -family dwellings on some of the smaller lots. In fact, several such dwellings currently exist in the subdivision. In my opinion, the only equitable method is to charge everyone the same price for the same service rendered . If someone later subdivides, then possibly they can be charged on a pro -rated basis for the additional service. Dividing the total assessment ($440,619) by the total number of parcels (145) yields an average of $3,038.75. I feel that any amount charged above that figure is unjust and inequitable. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

I continue to believe that assessments resulting from the formula allocating project cost based on parcel square footage as outlined in the city ordinance creates an inequality in the sharing of costs for this project. Because the smaller size of their lots will not allow for adequate septic system and water well spacing, the majority of property owners in Thompson Park receive a greater benefit from the city services provided by the project. Yet the burden of the project is much more to the few property owners of Sunset Rim who gain less from the project since their lots can sufficiently accommodate an on -site septic system and water well. Even if the project costs were divided equally among the total parcels, one could argue that the benefit for comparable services was greater for those who had little to no alternative means of safely providing these services otherwise. The burden of the project as currently proposed is not commensurate with the benefits gained. The city ordinance recognizes the possibility for this circumstance by providing a condition whereby the City Council can and should correct this inequality. Thank you for your time regarding this matter. Sincerely, 6Tt"V.isher MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and Councilmembers FROM: Carol L. Freas, City Clerk City of Kenai DATE: February 6, 1996 RE: THOMPSON PARK ASSESSMENT I received a telephone call (at approximately 4:45 p.m.) from Steve DeHart, who resides at 225 Iowa Street in Thompson Park. Mr. DeHart explained that he had planned on attending the 2/7/96 council meeting, but had to go to Wasilla on a family emergency. Mr. DeHart's comments were: He personally feels the city should pay a part of the cost of the assessment since the residents had to pay to hook up to the water system. He believes the cost at $5,000- $7,000 is pretty excessive. He had heard a rumor that funds left over may be used to pave the streets in Thompson Park and thought the cost of the assessments may not be too excessive if the paving would be done along with the water/sewer lines. Mr. DeHart asked what the possibility would be to have the paving done with the leftover funds. cif February 7, 1996 City of Kenai Kenai, Alaska 99611 To whom it may concern: I would like to appeal my sewer and water assessment in Thompson Park. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Dewayne and Laone Benton 1 220 Eisenhower Street • Kenai, Alaska 99611 • (907) 283-6469 • Fat (907) 262-2277 February 7, 1996 City of Kenai Kenai, Alaska 99611 To whom it may concern: I feel the water and sewer assessment in Thompson Park is unfair. Every parcel received sewer and water stub to their parcel. It costs the same amount of money whether there is a house on it or the lot is twice the square footage. The city and borough required this part of Thompson Park (Sunset Rim) to have 40,000+ sq. ft. lots and now they are penalizing us for the size. When the proposed cost came out, I went to meetings with Jack, the city Inspector and Joe, the city Manager. They said I had to go to the City Council. I had a meeting with John Williams and he talked to someone m public works. They said they would put a cap on the cost at six thousand seven hundred fifty dollars ($6,750.00). I did not feel this was fair, but it was acceptable. I had a teleconference with Mike Navarre and set up a meeting with him, but after meeting with John I felt we had a workable number and canceled the meeting with Mr. Navarre. I feel the only fair way would be to take the total number of parcels divided by the cost minus the cost to unsubdivided parcels. Thank you very much.

HIGH 907 262 7036 Testimony concerning the assessments in Thompson Park Subdivision From- Polly C ravford Irate: Feb. 7, 1996 21222� �a 2s�6' Because of the sudden death of rf y grandfather, I am 1uable to attend t hearing concerning the serer and grater assessment within Thompson Park Subdivision. I would like to go on official record as opposing the assessments, in principal, in a mtoi=, and because of inequity of the formula used to arrive at thy' assessments. First, in principal. This is the first city -formed eater and sever district forced upon an established residential neighborhood without its consent. All other grater and sever districts vitlun the city were either paid for in their entirety by the city with city and state funds, paid for as 1 result of a private development, or brought upon the residents of a neighborhood by the neighborhood's residents themselves, vho were then assessed, according to their own wishes. Thompson Park is unique, in that the only record of desire of the residents vas a "stray poll" taken by the city many years ago merely asking if +dam residents wanted city eater and sever. The poll vas taken after the cit,17 had previously paid for other water and sever lines to established areas, and I know from talking to many of the residents they assumed that would be the case in this neighborhood, also. Became I did not want it, did not even have a chain-e to vote on it, and have already had to spend a considerable amoim t of money to hook up, I oppose the mere concept of assessment. On top of asessments, the City is planning on charging interest! ! I'm going to be forced to pwf interest for something I never granted ! I l I also oppose the amount. I belief-e the $2300 1 had to pay to honk up, including $500 for permits to the city, for something I never vanted, is enough punishment. I mostly oppose the inequity of the formula. I live on a half acre lot. I have enough room to be in compliance with DEC regulations concerning septic and Drell separation. I have never had a septic failure in the 15 ,rears I have lived here. I have never had. to have it pumped. In other vords, I have incurred no cost because ghat I have works. Nov I'm being asked to pay $2300 for hooking up, $40 per month, and $4, 500 in assessments, just for my one lot. While haviaw city grater and sever vill probably increase the ndue of my property, it will not increase it as much as those smaller lots vho could not be in compliance Frith DEC and therefore had great difficulty getting bank loans to sell. 'vi'hy should. 1, with a shall house and a larger lot, have to pay $4,500 to flinh my tv.fo toilets, while someone else, vho lives in a larger hotsse on a small lot pay a mere $1,000 or less to flush their tiro or more toilets? In :addition, their property valipe V ill go up proportionally more than mine. Common sense dictates that people vho live in single famil r dvelliW, or have lot, in *hich sir ;Ie family dwellings will eventually be built, should all pa, the same amount. Uuplem should have t�.• pay a higher assessment, and businesses slwmld pay the highest of all. N�:rlule I harm not. seen my husband's proposal, from he by said. of it, I would suggest the council pay extra heed to it. I appeal to common serge ! ! ! I'm kAd the forrnuia.:is in the city charter. I challenge that, considering Thompson Park is the first established subdivision forced to take eater and sewer without consent. THOMPSON PARK SEWER AND WATER PROJECT ASSESSMENT PROPOSAL It's evident to everyone concerned, that the cost of the water and sewer system favors the front part of the subdivision. With fairness in mind, I submit a new assessment, with regard to four user groups: ASSESSMENT BREAKDOWN SINGLE FAMILY $2,554.00 MULTI FAMILY $3,831.00 COMMERCIAL $5,108.00 LARGE TRACKS $5,108.00 Single families would pay at the base rate of $2,554.00, multifamily owners would pay one and a half times that base rate at $3,831.00, commercial and large track owners would pay double the base rate at $5,108.00 . There are six lots in the front part of the subdivision that need to be addressed: LOT NO' S. 04907019 04907020 04908109 04908110 04908313 04908314 These lots may seem to small to be built on, but with each serviced, even these can accommodate multifamily dwellings. With fairness in mind, I propose giving the owners the opportunity to incorporate these lots either together or to an adjoining lot, and be charged at the single family base rate. The lots that front Fireweed Lane on the Spur Hiway side, with the exception of lot no. 04909212 are commercial property, but even this lot should be considered and should be addressed as such. But as in any democracy, should be brought up for discussion, and vote as this whole matter should be. In regard to how this proposal was calculated, I say nothing is written in stone , All ideas need to be looked at, discussed,considered, and most certainly any new ideas are welcome • Lot no's. 04908301 04908302 04909221 04909222 were not included in the newest assessment sheets. THE OBJECTIVE HERE IS FAIRNESS Suggested By: Finance Department City of Kenai RESOLUTION NO. 96-16 A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA APPROVING THE APPLICATION BY THE CITY FOR A CREDIT CARD TO BE USED STRICTLY FOR PROCUREMENT PURPOSES. WHEREAS, the City of Kenai currently procures goods and services from only those vendors who will accept a purchase order and provide such goods and services on credit; and WHEREAS, Department Heads working for the City of Kenai have consistently encountered vendors who will not accept purchase orders, thereby eliminating a potentially low cost source of goods and services from being utilized; and WHEREAS, many of these vendors who won't accept purchase orders will, instead, accept a bank credit card in payment; and WHEREAS, use of credit cards by cities to procure goods and services is not uncommon and can be effectively managed with tight internal controls. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, that: Section_1.L The City of Kenai be authorized to apply for and maintain a standard 74 business credit card fr mn;ntaine&-&t, and that the City Clerk is authorized to sign and affix the City of Kenai seal to a business credit card application. Section L- The business credit card shall be issued in either the name of the City of Kenai, or if that cannot be accomplished, in the name of the current Finance Director. Section 3: The business credit card will be used only by Finance Department staff in assisting other departments in making procurements, that the physical card will be maintained in the Finance Department vault at all times and will not be carried by any employee or representative of the City of Kenai for any purpose, that the actual credit card number will be known to Finance Department staff members only, and that any actual procurements made using the card will be physically made or coordinated by Finance Department employees. Resolution No. 96-16 Page Two Section 4: The Finance Director shall develop written standard operating procedures covering credit card utilization. PASSED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, this 7th day of February, 1996. H. RAYMOND MEASLES, VICE MAYOR Attest: Carol L. Freas, City Clerk Approved By Finance: (2/1/96) ips CITY OF KENAI .,� 4 4zaJ,0" It 210 FIDALGO AVE., SUITE 200 KENAI, ALASKA 99611-7794 TELEPHONE 907-283-7535 FAX 907-283-3014 1III�1 1": MEMORANDUM DATE: February 1, 1996 THRU: Tom Manninen, City Manager 114*1- TO: Mayor and Council Members, Kenai City Council FROM: Jay Sweeney, Finance Dir�toro SUBJECT: City Of Kenai Credit Card 1. I would like to request that the City of Kenai apply for, and maintain, a standard bank credit card to be used strictly for procurement purposes. 2. Several employees who frequently make purchases on behalf of the city have expressed frustration with me over our existing procurement rules. One of the concerns they expressed is that some vendors they would like to procure from will not accept a City of Kenai purchase order. As a result, the City of Kenai is not always procuring goods and services at the lowest possible price. 3. In addressing these employees' concerns, I feel that the acquisition and use of a City of Kenai business credit card could help to resolve the non -acceptance of purchase orders issue. The credit card would be subject to tight internal controls and would be used strictly for procurement actions. The following internal controls, rules, and restrictions would apply to such a card: o The card will be issued in the name of the City of Kenai or, if that is not possible, in the name of the current Finance Director. o The physical card would be maintained in the Finance Department vault at all times. No employee would be allowed to personally carry it for any reason. o The credit card number would be tightly controlled. Only Finance Department employees would have access to it. o The card would be used to purchase goods or services which are in the best interest of the City of Kenai but for which the vendor will not accept a purchase order. o Departments or employees desiring to make a procurement using the card would still be required to prepare a purchase order in the same manner as they currently do. The purchase order would be annotated, however, with the words "credit card" highlited on it. Upon receipt of such a purchase order, Finance Department employees will personally call the vendor and supply it with the credit card number to complete the procurement. o Finance Department employees will be responsible for tracking the credit limit on the card to ensure that it is not exceeded. 4. Credit card use in procurement is not uncommon in other municipal government organizations. In acquiring a credit card, we are not really changing what we basically do as an organization: buy on credit. When we use a purchase order, the vendor sells to us on credit whereas if we used a credit card, the act of extending credit would be shifted from the vendor to a bank. Credit card use does require tighter controls to prevent abuse, but use of such cards is not fundamentally different from the way we procure right now. 5. I would ask that you consider and approve the attached resolution authorizing the application for a bank credit card. If approved, I will embark on a pilot program with one department, the Building Maintenance Department, to test and see how well such usage works. We will review the results of the pilot program and, if we feel it has been successful, write standard operating procedures for city wide utilization. If we think that there are just too many inherent problems in credit card use, we will "kill" the card and I will inform the Council of the decision to do so. CITY OF KEN ..

Freas, City Clerk City of Kenai DATE: February 1, 1996 RE: LIQUOR LICENSE PROTESTS Kenai Elks Lodge and Italian Gardens This year, AS O4.11.480 was amended, allowing 60 days for a local governing body to protest the issuance, renewal, relocation, or transfer of a license. Also, there is now an allowance for the "local governing body" to "protest the continued operation of a license during the second year of the biennial license period by sending the board and the licensee a protest and the reasons for the protest by January 31 of the second year of the license period..." (After this year, liquor licenses will be renewed biennially.) Attached are letters I forwarded to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board on Wednesday, January 31, 1996. The letters were written in response to telephone conversations I had with Kenai Peninsula Borough Sales Tax office and the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board. During my conversation with the Kenai Peninsula Borough Tax Department, I was informed they were sending a protest of continued operation to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (ABC) in regard to taxes owed by the Kenai Elks Lodge and Italian Gardens. In reviewing my file, I found neither the City of Kenai nor the Borough objected to either of those license renewals at the time of the renewal as all obligations (to the City and Borough) were current. The delinquent personal property taxes accrued (Italian Gardens) since the 1995 tax billing in July. The delinquent sales taxes (Elks Lodge) are missing filings for 10/95 and 11/95. Because the last day to protest the continued operation of a license was January 31, 1996, I forwarded letters to the ABC entering temporary protests for the City until Council could review the information at the February 7, 1996 meeting and consider the matter at that time.

Approved by unanimous consent. MINUTES FROM PRIOR MEETING: Sam Huddleston asked if anyone wanted the minutes read. Pat Porter stated that copies of the minutes had been supplied in the packets. Minutes approved by unanimous consent. OLD BUSINESS: 1. Ready for Changes in Senior Program Pat Porter asked if members had had an opportunity to read the information she had passed out at the last meeting and noted that the center needs to make changes. Porter advised she had attended a board meeting with a retirement group from Unocal. Porter stated she had let them know that the center was available and that if there were special classes they would like offered or would like to use the facility to let the her know. Roger Meeks stated he had not had an opportunity to read the information. Al Pease noted that there were a number of good suggestions that he felt should be explored and changing meal times once a week for variety may be a good idea. Council person Swarner asked if the center had had requests for meals at other times in the day. Al Pease noted he had heard comments about why the center offers meals only one time a day. Porter noted that when she met with Unocal and mentioned possibly offering an evening meal that she was told they would not drive at night. Meeks noted he and his wife had stopped driving at night unless they have to. Porter stated that the center is offering a bridge class and it is being advertised in the paper through Joan Hansen's column. Porter noted a couple people had came to the classes that have not been at the center for a long time. In addition, Porter noted that she had received a call from a lady who was not a senior and who wanted to know if she could attend the class. Porter stated that for the first time she had stated that she could attend the class as long as there was space available and she was not displacing a senior. Porter stated she felt that having a non -senior attend the center would be good P.R. and may even result in a new volunteer. Meeks agreed that it would be good P.R. Pease noted that turning people away can result in bad P.R. Meeks commented that he had been at Carrs and spoken to a couple people who did not realize they could get an AARP card at 50. They had thought they had to be 55. Porter stated she had considered offering a "55 Alive" driving course in the evenings at the center. Huddleston noted it may be difficult to get enough people for a class in the evening. Porter stated that on the next meeting agenda ideas could be listed. Lucille Billings commented that most people 55 are still working. Porter noted that the information she had provided noted that 70 year old seniors in 1995 are different from those same -aged seniors from 20-30 years ago. That these seniors are more active and want to be more involved in activities. Porter reiterated that she had told the Unocal group to let her know if the center could offer a service to them. Porter was asked if that was the only group she had contacted and she stated the teachers have a group but that teachers retire at a much earlier age. Porter advised the group that Ward Cove Packing Company had donated $2500 to the center and had done so for the last ten years or so. Porter advised the group that she is in the process of purchasing a computer with a modem with the donated funds with the purpose that they will be able to access the internet. Note: Loretta Breeden arrived at approximately 10:10 a.m. Ms. Swarner advised that it may be necessary to set up time for use commenting that her father had gotten very excited about being able to keep up with the stock market. Swarner stated she had gotten excited about the prospect of getting the internet for the center after viewing a program on television that noted that seniors had requested a class on the internet. Porter commented that she felt it would be possible to ask boy scouts to teach the seniors how to use the internet. Porter Council on Aging Page 2 January 23, 1996 added that George Ward had shared with her that he had gotten a modem for his grandson and then discovered that his phone bill went way up. So, he eventually sent the modem home with his grandson. Porter advised the group that the request for the funds to be appropriate will be heard at the next city council meeting and that she is working with Computer Plus to get the system that the center will need. Seay commented that it is his feeling that it will probably get less expensive as time goes on. Kebschull advised the group that on Internet Alaska you can get unlimited access for $165 for 6 months. Huddleston noted that you need to learn to type before using a computer. 2. Funding Levels Ms. Porter advised the group that United Way has notified the center that they will probably receive the same funding as last year. In addition, Porter stated she had heard nothing more about the 10 percent cut in federal funds and reminded the group that would amount to $12,000 for the Kenai Center. 3. Smoking Policy/Council Agenda Porter advised she had provided information in the packets regarding the smoking policy and noted that the city attorney had written a memo stating his opinion of the policy. Huddleston commented the attorney has the same idea that the council had had on the smoking policy. Meeks noted that if a tenant signs the agreement it is legal. Porter stated she had wanted the group to be aware of the status and that the information would be heard at the next council meeting on February 7'. 4. 251" Anniversary Celebration Ms. Porter shared that they had decided to develop a poster for the anniversary. Porter shared a sample but noted it was just a sample and would be larger, poster size, and that the drawing was just to give an idea of what was planned. Porter also stated that they wanted to place a quote on the poster and that they liked what Abraham Lincoln had said but no one could remember the quote exactly. Porter stated that it was something like, "You can judge a civilization by the way they treat their older people." Breeden asked what type of quote they wanted for the poster and Porter responded something like Lincoln's quote. Porter stated that Jenny came up with a quick idea and basically the poster would have spruce, fireweed, the cache, a quote across the top and then writing around the picture. The writing on the border would contain something like Kenai Senior Center celebrates 25 years. Breeden commented that they could use something like, "Alaska senior citizens are the history and love of our community." Porter stated that if anyone came up with an idea in the next two weeks to let her know and she Council on Aging Page 3 January 23, 1996 would write them all down. Then, they could look at all the ideas and decide at the next meeting. Breeden asked if there would be another other activities planned besides the poster. Porter noted that the celebration was in the initial stages of planning and that Sylvia Johnson and Betty Warren had been nominated at an earlier meeting to be on a committee to plan activities. Porter stated they had talked about holding activities once a month from May through November. Porter _ noted that the actual anniversary was in November. Ms. Swarner asked if they had plans to sale the posters and Porter stated she felt they could. Ms. Breeden asked if it would be possible to add something to the agenda. Chairman Huddleston asked if it was old business or if it should be heard later. Breeden stated she was curious about the meeting they had had with Gary Davis and asked if they could give a report on what was talked about and if they asked for anything. Huddleston stated they hadn't asked for anything. Porter advised that they had asked them not to cut funds and told them about the services the center provides. Porter stated they knew that it seems like a lot of funds go to senior programs when they add up the money from the Longevity Program ($70 million), pioneer homes ($30 to $40 million) and the senior centers. Breeden stated she had heard they had recommended that the legislators look at other sources of funds like the senior citizen tax relief for their homes and the longevity bonus. Porter stated they had not said anything about cuts just that they not cut funds to programs currently being provided. Ms. Swarner commented that we ought to send them a box of cookies. Breeden asked who they had met with and Porter responded Gary Davis, Mike Navarre, Judy Salo, and a representative from John Torgenson's office. Breeden asked if they had gotten input from the board. Porter advised that what they had done was not controversial. Swarner asked who else attended. Porter advised they met with Lois Pillafont and Bill Reeder of the Soldotna center. They were the only four at the meeting. Breeden asked if there was a representative from the council there. Porter responded no. Porter advised they had received a letter from Gary Davis after the meeting and that Judy Salo's office had informed them she would be at the center for lunch on Monday. NEW BUSINESS: 1. Pool Table Addition Porter advised she had had a request from Bill Laughlin that he would like to see about removing the card tables and getting another pool table. Huddleston asked where the card tables would be placed. Pease noted moving the card tables would displace 12 to 15 people for the benefit of two to three. Meeks stated he had Council on Aging Page 4 January 23, 1996 talked to other pool players and they had told him the table they had was adequate and they were happy to have one. BREEDEN MOVED TO LEAVE THINGS AS THEY ARE WITH THE POOL TABLE AND THE CARD TABLES. MOTION SECONDED BY MEEKS. UNANIMOUS. 2. Budget Proposals/Goals Porter advised that writing the budget is in progress. In addition, Porter stated she expects to receive a grant proposal in the mail for the two year state program. Porter stated this is usually a very extensive proposal and is due April 15'. Porter advised that if anyone knew of any changes or equipment that may be needed to let her know so that it could be included in the grant proposal. Breeden asked the status of the automatic doors. Porter advised they were being taken care of by Public Works. Swarner stated they were approved at the last council meeting. Porter clarified that the council had approved the doors for Vintage Pointe and the doors for the senior center had been put on the list for next year's budget. 3. Classification Change/Administrative Assistant Porter explained that the city had investigated employees and their positions and whether or not employees were being fairly compensated for their position. Porter asked Swarner to explain it further. Swarner noted that council had felt they may be inequities within the employee compensation so they had appointed an employee committee to look into the situation. The committee had gone through job descriptions and recommended that some positions be upgraded to compensate the employees fairly for their jobs. Council decided to address the recommendation during the next budget session. Swarner stated it is her personal opinion that the recommendations will be followed as this item has been discussed for several years. Porter added that for many years the city manager had not allowed any range changes during the budget even though there were employees whose jobs had changed since they were initially hired. Porter noted that one of the recommendations was for the Senior Citizen's Center's administrative assistant, Mary Ellen's, position be upgraded from a 7 to a 10. Porter noted that with the housing project next door the position has changed. In addition, Mary Ellen supervises others and even acts in Porter's position when she is gone. Porter noted this would be approximately a $3000 year change to her salary. Breeden stated that the recommendation was for additional part-time employee or reclassification. Porter stated another employee would cost more and that her recommendation would be for reclassification. Swarner stated she felt they would reclassify Council on Aging Page 5 January 23, 1996 employees and not hire new employees. Porter commented that she had provided the board with the information so that they would be informed of what was happening and how the decision had came about. Meeks asked if the extra money for the salary could be taken from the housing project. Porter advised that was possible and that one-fourth of her salary is taken from the project. Pease noted that it would be up to council. Meeks stated he was sure it was going to happen but wondered where the funds would come from. Porter stated she felt the center would be okay especially since last year when one-fourth of her salary was taken from the housing project. Breeden asked what the hourly rate would be. Porter stated she didn't know. Meeks felt it would be from around $15 to $16.50 or so. Porter stated she thought it was approximately $266 per month. Meeks said he knew it was important to keep good employees. Breeden commented that she is against government employees getting raises while other people are getting laid off and others are paid minimum wage. Swarner noted that is one reason why they wouldn't recommend additional employees because of the additional costs. Breeden commented that government employees getting wage increases versus what is happening in the economy doesn't seem right. Porter commented that the recommendation was based on a comparison of city employees and whether or not an employee supervised others, etc. The city was trying to equalize the pay for equal job descriptions. Breeden stated they could lower salaries instead of raise some. Porter stated that for ten years the problem has not been allowed to be addressed. The recommendation only effects 1110" of the employees. Meeks again stated that he wonders where the money will come from. Porter stated that in today's world if you don't compensate individuals for what they are doing, they have justification for a law suit. In addition, it is almost impossible to fire anyone. Breeden stated they have a right to go get a job somewhere else if they are not happy with their pay. Porter stated people don't do that anymore. Swarner reiterated that the recommendations would be addressed during the next budget. Meeks commented that he knows Mary Ellen probably deserves the raise but wonders where the money is going to come from and hopes they don't consider taxing more. Meeks noted that it all adds up and that these recommendations would cost the city approximately $50,000 total. MEETING ADJOURNED AT APPROXIMATELY 11 A.M.

PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD None. 5. DIRECTOR'S REPORT A. Men's Basketball - McGillivray reported that men's basketball will be finishing the first half of their season next week. They will then divide the teams up and have two divisions. Parks & Rec Commission February 1, 1996 Page 1 B. Women's Basketball - McGillivray reported that the women have been using the gym on Sundays and Wednesday nights. They now have seven teams and have put together a team to play during Fur Rondevous this year. C. Elections - Sandahl nominated Hultberg as chair. Castimore seconded the nomination. A vote approved Hultberg as chair. Hultberg nominated Sandahl as vice -chair. Castimore seconded the nomination. A vote approved Sandahl as vice -chair. D. Special Budget Meeting - McGillivray requested that the Commission hold a special budget meeting some time before the end of the month. Some of the items to be requested are a Ski-doo snowmobile (approximately $6500) and a roller compactor (approximately $1545) for setting cross country ski trails. There were also several personnel upgrades that were requested. Playground equipment will also be discussed. The completed budget has to be submitted by the last day of February. A special meeting was scheduled to be held on the 26th of February at 6:30 in Council Chambers. E. Elks Hoop Shoot - McGillivray reported that the Elks Hoop Shoot was held last Saturday. There were not as many kids in attendance as in the past, but the turnout was still good. 6. OLD BUSINESS A. Five Year Plan Update - Castimore asked about moving some of the items down the list. McGillivray aggreed that many of the items were completed or have changed priority. McGillivray stated that the tent campground continuation will probably stay as it is. There may be one or two sites that are yet to be finished. The cross country ski trail will have to be moved to 95/96. The softball greenstrip equipment is now completed. Sandahl asked if Bob Frates discussed with McGillivray the Commission's recommendation to removed trees from Beaver Creek park. Wisniewski suggested that even a ball diamond would be nice. McGillivray stated that it was quite a distance to move equipment for maintenance. Sandahl felt that if it was a matter of knocking other costs down in order to get the clearing done, the Commission should consider that also. McGillivray stated that the equipment in there now is starting to rot below ground and needs to be replaced. Hultberg asked McGillivray if he could check in-house to see if the clearing can be done that way. McGillivrary suggested that the Commission make a recommendation to the Council. Sandahl MOVED that the Commission recommend to Council upgrading Beaver Creek Park by removing scrub trees between the Spur Highway and the park itself and making the park more visible from the highway. Wisniewski SECONDED the motion. Bannock suggested that the Commission put something together on paper to submit with the recommendation to Council. Hultberg suggested that the montion be discussed again at the special meeting. This suggestion was approved and the motion died. Kayo reported that he had put $20,000 per unit in the budget for restroom upgrades. He stated that hopefully they can get some of the work done locally for less than that figure. McGillivray stated that many of the parks signs need to be upgraded. He stated that the City has the equipment to make metal signs, but they don't seem to hold up well. The wooden signs are very expensive, though, and may not be an option. McGillivray reported that the Cunningham parking space development will be contingent upon receiving the requested grant. Sandahl MOVED that the Commission recommend to Council that the playground equipment be removed from Cunningham Park due to potential liability to the city of the location of the equipment to the parking area. Castimore SECONDED the motion. A roll call vote was unanimously in favor of the recommendation. McGillivray reported that the plan was to put more tables and grills in at the Municipal Park. McGillivray reported that the Rotary Club's latest offer to the City was to donate $5,000 if the City would match funds to upgrade Old Town Park. This was accepted by the City. McGillivray stated that the Little League playground equipment wood is starting to rot and will need to be changed out in the next couple of years. He suggested moving this item to the 96/97 time frame. Hultberg suggested moving the Continuation of Section 36 to the 98/99 time frame and take Cunningham Park out, then move the Oiler Park Upgrade to 97/98. This will again be discussed a the special meeting. Bannock stated that each person can contact the City beforehand to voice concerns about items they felt should not be removed from the list. McGillivray stated that the Commission's list was also independent from the City's list. Parks & Rec Commission February 1, 1996 Page 3 B. Lief Hanson Memorial Park Policy - McGillivray reported that he was requested to put together a statement to submit to Council. Bannock stated that the Kenai River Festival Committee will be requesting use of the Memorial Park again this year. Castimore MOVED that since the City has already put in substantial funds to install public restrooms, upgrade playground equipment, and install a covered shelter at the softball greenstrip for public use, that these facilities should be used for large groups instead of bringing in porta potties at additional expense for large groups to use the Memorial Park. Sandahl SECONDED the motion. The motion passed with a unanimous vote. C. Kenai Habitat Restoration - McGillivray reported that he and Keith and Bob Frates met with a lady from State Parks. He stated that this work will all depend on whether the City gets the regeusted grant money and this may not be determined until past time to get the work done this season. 7. NEW BUSINESS A. Rotary Club - Old Town Park - This item was discussed earlier in the meeting and was discussed earlier in the meeting. B. Bob Frates Certification - McGillivray stated that Bob Frates is now certified as a playground safety inspector- C. Alaska Greenhouse Conference - McGillivray reported that Bob Frates will be attending this conference this year. D. Computers for Teen Center - McGillivray reported that Shell Western donated several used computers to the teen center. They now have four up and running and are getting much use. S. CORRESPONDENCE Student representative Fahnholz passed around the school events calendar to the Commission. Hultberg asked if she could get it to the city in time to go out in future meeting packets. She stated she would try. 9. INFORMATION A. Reappointment Letters - Bannock stated his should be coming out soon. B. Commission Roster - Wisniewski asked if McGillivray could find out how much property belongs with Beaver Creek Park.

APPROVAL OF AGENDA: RON GOECKE RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA FOR THE SPECIAL MEETING OF JANUARY 16, 1996 AND ASKED FOR UNANIMOUS CONSENT. MOTION SECONDED BY CARL GLICK. AGENDA APPROVED. 3. NEW BUSINESS a. PZ96-5—Landscape Site Plan Review, Continuum Corporation Leo Grasso representing the Continuum Corporation stated he would like to have members of their committee address the Commission regarding the landscaping of the project. Mr. Grasso stated that Merle Dean Feldman would be speaking for the corporation on the landscaping portion of the project. Merle Dean Feldman explained that she had done a lot of work within the city on flower beds. Ms. Feldman explained that Mr. Grasso had asked her to bring continuity to the gardens that had been established in Leif Hansen and bring that style into the assisted living center. Ms. Feldman shared a picture of the Buchart Gardens in Victoria. Ms. Feldman stated she had brought the picture to share because this would be the typical type of island beds that would be established. She stated they will have vivid colors to appeal to the senses and trees and shrubs incorporated in the island beds. Ms. Feldman stated she had drawn the island beds on the plans to show where they would be located. Ms. Feldman explained that the interior gardens, as shown on the plans, will loop in and out around areas. The gardens around the Alzheimer's unit were drawn outside the fence, but will actually be inside the fence. Ms. Feldman explained that all of the plants and shrubs used will be capable of surviving in this climate. She stated that one of the things that she had thought about when planning the gardens was that they need to enhance the residents stay while they are there and bring joy and comfort to them. Ms. Feldman stated that when people walk through the gardens she believes that people will feel good about living there. The gardens were designed with that in mind. Ms. Feldman offered to answer any questions. Mr. Bryson asked if the area around the planted islands would be turfed grass. Ms. Feldman responded that there would be grass surrounding each island and the grassed area would be the natural pathways. Bryson asked if that would be the case around the living quarters. Ms. Feldman stated yes, the areas would be grass and that all of the gardens would be done in the Buchart fashion where there would be grass surrounding them. Feldman stated that the grass makes the plants and the flowers come alive. It also provides natural pathways for people to stroll. Mr. Bryson noted that the area is lacking in variation in topography and asked if there was going to be an effort to contour the area. Ms. Feldman stated that there would be contouring on the back boundary (directing their attention to the drawings). Feldman showed where the dirt will be pushed up noting it will form a natural woodland boundary in the back. Feldman stated there is already a boundary that exists there but it will be made to be more distinct. Ms. Feldman stated that Pat Porter has asked her to help at the Senior Citizen's Center with some island beds there to bring the same feelings into that area. Feldman added that some of the beds will be mounded up higher than other beds to provide interest and detail. Mr. Booth asked if the plants chosen will have longevity to them or if they will need to be replanted frequently. Ms. Feldman stated these plants will last forever. Feldman explained that the planting will be done similar to Leif Hansen. Ms. Feldman explained that three years ago, the soil was taken apart, pumice was brought in, peat and leaf mulch was added, etc. Feldman stated that at these gardens they will actually have a grinder and be grinding up materials to bring a lot of natural material to build up the soil. Feldman stated that is the secret to the longevity of the plants. Feldman added that in Alaska, if the perennials can reach down and have an everlasting source of minerals, they will survive and it also protects their roots. If they stay in primarily peat soil or primarily clay soil, they cannot survive the winters. All the plants that have been planted in Kenai have survived for three years. Feldman stated they will be looking at the plants to make sure that the plants need as little upkeep as possible. Feldman noted there will need to be a gardener but this will help. Feldman stated that a lot of the Buchart Gardens have beautiful evergreen shrubs and small trees that are actually in the island beds and these provide architecture to the beds. Feldman stated she felt that architecture was lacking in the Kenai gardens. Feldman noted that these gardens will contain shrubs that will be shaped and the small trees to provide an interesting architecture. Mayor Williams stated that it may be possible to redesign Leif Hansen gardens at the same time using the overburden and soil from this project. He stated it may be worthwhile to work together on a joint project. Ms. Feldman stated she had attempted to make sure there would not be any tricky areas for people to trip over. Feldman explained that the island beds were close enough to the walkways to be viewed closely but not so close that people might trip over them. Feldman noted there will be fountains in a couple of areas adding that water does wonders for people. Planning & Zoning Commission Page 2 January 16, 1996 Ms. Mahurin asked where the Alzheimer's unit would be housed. (Ms. Mahurin was shown the unit on the drawing.) Ms. Feldman stated that the flowers for that area have not been chosen but that she will make sure that they are very, very beautiful and will be very bright colors. Mr. Booth asked what the average height of the beds would be questioning if they would be too high creating problems with security. Ms. Feldman stated they would be one and one-half to two feet high, nothing that would be too distracting. Mr. Bryson asked if the area designated for snow storage is proposed to be left graveled or would it be sodded also. Ms. Feldman stated there would be no gardens in the area but it would be a grassed area. Lynn Robbins stated she had been asked to finish the presentation, explain the site plan, show the Alzheimer's unit, explain parking, and any other questions that may arise. In addition, she stated she would go over the final floor plans and show overheads from another building that was just completed. Commission moved to audience to view the overhead presentation. Ms. Robbins displayed an overhead of the site plan, minus the gardens explaining that the gardens were not complete when the site plan was prepared. Ms. Robbins clarified the Alzheimer's unit's location on the plan noting it will have a secure perimeter and that the gardens will be inside the fence. Robbins noted there were a few questions on parking and stated she had picked up a copy of the code and explained how they had interpreted the code. Robbins noted that when the building was designed they ended up with 21 spaces not including the parking that would be available around he drive area. Robbins explained how they used the ordinance to come up with the 21 spaces. Robbins noted that each person had been supplied with a copy of the outline she was referring to. Robbins stated that in the daytime there will normally be eight full-time employees on staff, approximately 5 staff in the evening, and three on graveyard shift. Robbins stated that according to the code, there needs to be one-half parking space for each employee. Robbins stated her question to the Planning & Zoning Commission is that when they figured their total spaces required they took the maximum number of employees which was eight and one- half space for each employee would be four spaces. That is the number they used for employee parking spaces. Continuing, Robbins stated that if a half parking space was needed for each employee on all three shifts and you added that number together, they would still meet the parking requirement. Robbins stated she wasn't sure which method to go by but they had thought it was based on employees on shift. Robbins explained that the numbers on the sheet relating to visitors and traffic flow were given to them by a national traffic study by the National Assisted Living Facilities of America. The numbers are the average number of visitors at a typical assisted living facility will have on any given day. Ten percent of the residents will have visitors on the day time shift. Autumn Court will have 56 residents so ten percent will be approximately 6 visitors. On the swing shift you usually have the most traffic you Planning & Zoning Commission Page 3 January 16, 1996 have, after 3 or 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the evening. At that time visitors will go up to about 15 percent, that would be about nine visitors at Autumn Court. On the evening, grave yard shift, there are no visitors. Holidays will be the peak time. On an average shift, 25 percent of your residents will have family come and visit. In this facility, that would be 15 visitors on any given shift. Robbins stated they had reviewed the code and it required a half space for each employee. Robbins noted that the nurse on staff will be included as an employee and an extra space can be added for her. It is required that there be one parking space for every five beds which would mean the facility would need another 11 parking spaces. That gives a total of 16 and the facility has 21 spaces not including the parking that is available in the drive area. Robbins stated they estimate six vehicles could park in that driving area. In addition, there is an additional area that is available for parking and at any time there is a need for more parking that area can be turned into parking. Robbins asked if the Commission had any questions on how they arrived at the numbers for parking spaces. No questions were noted. Robbins continued her presentation on the overhead showing floor plans of the facility. Beginning on the bottom floor, Robbins noted it would have a beauty shop, resident storage, kitchen storage, staff room, bathrooms, and commercial laundry. On the first floor, Robbins showed where the entrance to the facility would be, the porte-cochere on the driveway, a break room, large dining area, and reception area. Robbins directed the Commission's attention to the large pictures on display. Continuing, Robbins showed how the resident rooms would be located on each wing. Robbins showed the Alzheimer's wing on the plans and noted it allows for an extra common space for activities in that area. Robbins explained the second story will house more independent, more ambulatory residents. The first floor will be an assisted living area for those residents needing more assistance with ambulation and more assistance throughout the day. Robbins noted that the second floor is home to the physical therapy suite and showed where it was located on the plans. Robbins noted the room will house the physical therapy room, exercise equipment, and a recreation area. The room is open to the dining room below. Robbins informed the group that they had just opened a new building just before Christmas and they had brought pictures to show what some of the typical residences that they have built look like. Robbins stated they were hoping to give the Commission an idea of the clients they serve as well as what the finished product will look like. Robbins displayed pictures of a client in the new facility. Mr. Glick asked if this facility had the same floor plan as the building in Kenai would have. Robbins advised no; this facility was a one story in comparison to the Kenai facility which would be a two story with four wings. Ms. Mahurin asked if the residents used their own furniture. Robbins explained that the residents bring all of their belongings with them. Robbins noted that some of the things they do when a resident moves in is hang curtains adding that they provide the blinds. In addition, they hang a wall paper border. The resident is allowed to choose the borders. Robbins showed a picture of the dining area noting it's warmth. Ms. Mahurin asked if there would be refrigerators and microwaves in the individual units. Robbins explained Planning & Zoning Commission Page 4 January 16, 1996 that all of the individual rooms have kitchenettes. In the Alzheimer unit, there are special considerations for that. Robbins displayed some of the living areas noting they are smaller areas located in corridors and this helps to make them more intimate. Mayor Williams asked if the facility had an established procedure for residents who pass away because of the sensitive nature with this facility being close to the Senior Citizen Center and other senior housing. Ms. Robbins explained there is one unit on the first floor which has been set aside for hospice. This is used for clients whose general health may be deteriorating and they may need 24-hour nursing care for the final four to six weeks of their life. They can receive hospice care and Medicare will pay for it through a home health hospice program. This allows those residents who have lived at the facility to remain there and receive additional care. Robbins noted this is the shortest wing and only has four units to allow more intensive care in that area. If somebody has a condition which will require more care, they can receive it as long as it only lasts six weeks. In Alaska, 45 days of 24 hour care in a hospice situation is allowed. Robbins stated that care be taken so that you don't make people feel isolated noting that this is still their residence and it is important that they remain there with family and with friends. There is a meeting area and a room for the families so that they can sit and receive counseling. Robbins stated they have a social worker who works both with the families and the residents. The residents also go through a very difficult time when they have a friend or someone who has been close to them and they have a terminal situation that they have to go through. The social worker helps them work through those problems and coordinates with them. Robbins noted that it is very important for them to discuss things, to talk about things, and to be angry about things. Robbins stated occasionally they may have people who die unexpectedly and they had not been moved to the hospice area. Again, Robbins stated it is very important to the residents of the facility that they understand what happened, they help plan the funeral, and they all go to the services if they want to. Robbins stated that the whole facility acts as a family unit whenever there is a death and that it is very important that the process is coordinated through the social worker. Bereavement follow-up will be provided. Mayor Williams asked if there was a procedure if someone died stating who needed to be called, etc. Robbins stated that as part of their Policy and Procedure Manual there is a death policy that informs the staff step-by-step the steps they need to take when there is a death in the facility. This includes contacting the family, notifying the proper authorities, to who signs the death certificate, notifying the physicians, etc. Mayor Williams stated he had been having brief conversations with the hospital in Soldotna as they have been looking at trying to determine whether or not they should expand into some kind of an outpatient clinic or day service facility in Kenai. Williams asked Robbins in her opinion, would she think that it would be proper for the hospital to pursue such a project. Especially, in light of the fact that so many older citizens may be moving into the Kenai area. Robbins clarified what Mayor Williams meant by a facility. Mayor Williams explained that it could be a clinic which could even offer day surgery but with no overnight facilities. Ms. Robbins stated that they have worked with similar situations in other areas. Robbins stated they have suggested in other areas that facilities offer day surgery and also serves as a clinic. Robbins stated that they have found that in a lot of areas that people in rural locations don't have access to Planning & Zoning Commission Page 5 January 16, 1996 the same medical facilities as they do in some of the other towns similar to Kenai and Soldotna. Robbins stated that one of the benefits to Kenai would be if they could build here and it could help by providing Kenai with more specialists in other fields as well as having the same day surgery. Robbins stated they have been working with FHP and some HMO's on a national basis in Washington and one of the new concepts that has been approved is that new hospitals have no overnight accommodations and everything is done on a same -day surgery basis. They are looking at contracting with skilled nursing homes to provide overnight care. Mayor Williams stated a meeting would be planned with the Board of Directors at the hospital in late February or early March and asked if he could contact Ms. Robbins for information to present at this meeting. Ms. Robbins stated she would be glad to help prepare a packet and to be present at the meeting. Robbins noted that the City of Kenai is showing a very good growth pattern, stable economy, and stable community. Robbins commented that Kenai is positively a good place to live. Robbins commented that the way the hospice is designated is that the hospital would even be allowed to contract with the facility and use the beds in that one wing as hospice. Mr. Booth asked if the hospice wing would provide for relatives staying there. Robbins advised that the rooms are large enough to contain a love seat or a sofa bed. Robbins stated they are allowed to stay and encouraged to stay noting that very often the final days are family oriented. Mr. Verdugo advised that in each of the wings there is one room that is larger which will allow for a pull out couch. Verdugo noted that at any given time that room may be occupied so that all of the other rooms have been designed to be large enough to accept a cot. Robbins stated that death is very much a part of life and very much a family activity. Mr. Verdugo explained that in the Alzheimer unit that larger rooms can provide for a care giver spouse who can stay there but with the staff be given necessary breaks. Robbins noted that you will find that the spouses of Alzheimer residents will stay in that wing but be allowed to take part in the other activities of the more active residents. Ms. Swarner asked if there was an age requirement for the facility. Ms. Robbins stated it depends on if the city requests an age requirement. Robbins noted that their financing will set a limit of 62 or over and that will be the only age restriction placed on the facility by HUD. Robbins stated that sometimes cities do ask to place an age restriction on the facility. Robbins noted that the typical resident is over 80 and anyone younger is usually there because of a medical problem. Ms. Swarner stated that was her question that if the facility is leasing out beds overnight care through the hospital if that would be possible based on age restrictions. Ms. Robbins stated they are not licensed to do that and that would have to be provided through a skilled nursing home. Robbins stated the only thing they could provide would be if it would be for an elderly patient who met the other criteria and they wanted to contract to use the hospice bed for up to six months. Medicare would be allowed to pay for that. Ms. Mahurin clarified the use of the second floor. Ms. Robbins stated the second floor could be listed as independent living with support services. The second story would be used for those residents who need meals, may need housekeeping, may need some assistance with bathing. But, these residents are able to get up, get dressed, and move about on their own. Mobility is the major issue between the two floors. The first floor will have nursing care available and the residents do not need to be ambulatory. Ms. Planning & Zoning Commission Page 6 January 16, 1996 Mahurin questioned if 8 staff members would be sufficient with 56 units taking into consideration the office, nursing, and custodial. Ms. Robbins stated they may end up with more staff than that the eight is just average. You have the administration, secretary, food service person, servers, four aides, noting it adds up fairly quickly. Ms. Robbins noted that the people on the second floor are not being bathed and dressed and that makes a big difference. About 25 residents on the first floor have someone getting them up and dressed. The people upstairs are helped with laundry, housekeeping, and most of those services are done on the swing shift. Ms. Mahurin asked what the approximately charge for renting a room on a monthly basis would be. Ms. Robbins said it would be different for the second floor versus the first floor. Ms. Robbins stated they had been working with the state's Choice Program. This program has Medicaid vouchers for people with low to moderate income and the program qualifies people by income and by need. An individual must have two daily living skills that they need assistance with to qualify for this program. When an individual has two skills they need assistance with and fall in the low to moderate income level, the state has a Medicaid voucher program they qualify for. This program will pay from $1100 to an average of $1800 per month. Robbins said they are agreeing to accept the vouchers for those Medicare clients. Robbins said there are few places accepting the vouchers and they will be the only ones in this area. The second floor rooms will rent for between $1800 to $2200 a month and the, first floor they will be approximately $3000 per month. The nursing component brings the expense up. Mr. Booth asked if the traffic pattern for personnel inside the building insured some type of security for the Alzheimer's patients. Ms. Robbins advised it is a secured area with doors that are monitored and alarms that will go off if anyone leaves. Ms. Robbins added that when the weather is nice the outside doors can be opened but it is secured with a fence. Mr. Booth clarified that the traffic pattern for everyone else would be at the ends of each of the wings. Ms. Robbins noted there will be an aide assigned to each wing. Mr. Verdugo explained that Alzheimer patients will have a bracelet that allows them to be electronically monitored. Mr. Booth asked how the staff would insure everyone was out of the building during a fire. Ms. Robbins stated that quarterly fire drills are required on each shift so that all employees are trained. Discussion on how fire drills are held and residents are accounted for. Ms. Robbins stated that fire drills are held using national standards that they must follow. Ms. Robbins added that all the doors are on automatic closure and it is a sprinkled building.

Representatives from City Council, Parks & Recreation, Planning & Zoning, and the Kenaitze Indian Tribe attended this work session. The group discussed possible paths, benches, fencing, and the placement for the proposed sign at the site. The KIT representatives stated they would like to have another meeting and bring tribal elders so that the elders can have input into the planning for the site. The group agreed to meet at 6 p.m. on February 2r before the Townsite Historic District Board's regularly scheduled meeting. Does the Council approve the work session.

Dorothy Gray brought the group up-to-date on the Shkituk' project. Gray stated that last May the City Council voted for the Historic District Board and Planning and Zoning to proceed with the designation of the Shkituk' Village Site. Gray stated that at that time the Board had met with representatives from KIT and came up with three goals wanted to accomplish last summer. Those goals were: 1. To create a sign. Gray advised that the Board had submitted a grant for state funding to make the sign for the village and for signs in Old Town in cooperation with the Rotary Club. Gray stated that if the grant is approved, the signs will hopefully be put in this summer. 2. The second goal was to make the parking lot more secure because people were driving right up and digging up the turf. The city maintenance crew did a fantastic job cleaning the area and hauled off junk. Gray commented that Mark Johansen had helped a great deal and did a fantastic job. Gray noted that he prevented people from driving up on the bluff. Gray stated that HEA had donated power poles but people were just pushing them away and driving up to the bluff. So, the next week Johansen drilled holes and spiked the poles into the ground to prevent them being moved. 3. The third goal was to clean up the site. Gray stated that goal two and three were completed last year and the sign is in the process of being funded. Gray stated that the meeting tonight was to brainstorm ideas as to what the next step should be, what do people want to see, where do we go from here? What would be appropriate goals to accomplish. Lindgren asked if Gray was talking about right at the Shkituk' site. Gray responded from the parking lot area towards the bluff. Lindgren asked if Gray had a copy of the letter from the tribe. Mahurin stated that she thought that from the beginning of the discussions on the site that it was going to be a reflective, quiet place. There would be interpretive signs and then there would be benches for visiting or looking out. Mahurin stated she didn't visualize much more there. Gray noted that one of the ideas discussed last time was simple and that was to re -vegetate the area because it had been bulldozed. Gray stated that someone had mentioned planting wild flowers and putting in a cedar path with benches. Gray noted that these were just some of the things she remembered people talking about. Gray said that someone had commented that there used to be cottonwood trees through there and maybe the group could plant some trees which might help. Werner-Quade stated that possibly a group such as the Boys & Girls Club could help plant the trees. Swarner noted that the KIT greenhouse has perennials and questioned if they had trees. Smagge stated that they did. Gray commented that Swan had stated that the Cooper Landing trail was completed with cedar chips. Swan stated it was done with chips and peeled logs that were beetle -killed, fallen logs. Swan stated the youth did a great deal in building the trail. Lindgren stated the Cooper Landing project was constructed three years ago. Lindgren explained the chips are beetle -kill spruce that the forest service provided and the youths did all the labor on the site. It took three weeks, four hours a day to build the trail. Lindgren noted it is an interpretive trail and has rocks with numbers painted on them and the interpretive brochure. Lindgren added that based on the letter from the tribe that the elders said they did not want an interpretive trail. Lindgren said the tribe takes their direction from their elders. Lindgren said that if you wanted a trail going up to the sign that may be okay but the elders did not want an interpretive tail. They wanted a reflective area and had hoped that the impact of the sign would be enough. Swan added that it is a place of peace and to think about the past, present, and future. Swarner added that the site would go along with the Leif Hansen Memorial Park theme. Glick asked if they were against flowers and trees, etc. Lindgren stated she thought the letter said wild flowers and the group confirmed that was what the letter said. Swarner asked if wild flowers would include trees. Discussion that the elders wanted the site natural, not formal gardens. Gray stated that the area is mostly low, scrub bushes off to the side now and down to dirt in a lot of areas. Lindgren commented that just getting people off the ground works as well as re -vegetation. Gray stated that she thought a little top soil may be helpful because it looks like the top soil has been scraped off. Mahurin commented that on the side where the logs are up to the bluff she would hope there would be benches and added that possibly some sort of a trail or path that is marked would keep people off the rest of the grass. Mahurin stated that when she goes there it is to the bluff and the area is diminishing. Lindgren asked if it was safe to have people there. Comments from the group that it is really steep. Gray stated there may be a need to put up a fence to keep people from getting too Townsite Historic District Board January 23, 1996 Page 2 Work Session Minutes close to the bluff. Frates stated that he felt to alleviate any liability issues a sign would have to be posted and have a buffer zone with a certain distance between the bluff and any benches. Huhndorf commented that it would be similar to the church in Old Town. Frates stated he didn't mean a metal barricade or anything like that. Frates added that a path leading to it as a persuasion to keep people on the path. Gray asked how people felt about a path coming from the parking area to the sign and benches around the area. Glick stated if you don't do something like that, people will walk all over anything that is planted. Mahurin asked where the sign would be placed? Gray commented that it hadn't been decided. Huhndorf stated it had been discussed at a previous meeting and he had suggested that it be in the middle. This would help keep it from being destroyed by passing traffic and people would have to make a deliberate effort to use the site in reflection. Huhndorf noted that was his contribution and he didn't know how anyone else would feel. Mahurin clarified where Huhndorf was referring to for the sign placement. Huhndorf stated he felt that the designated place would be up to discussion but it should be at least set back from the parking area. Smagge stated she felt they should have brought some of their elders to the meeting to allow them to speak to the issue. Swan stated she had made the suggestion for the foot path to be wood chips simply because other than any kind of paved or black top if for any reason that the site was left, it would pretty much be back to it's natural state. Swan added that it is quite comfortable and that handicapped people using wheel chairs, canes, etc. are comfortable with using a trail constructed of the chips. Swan noted this information was based on their experience at the Cooper Landing trail. Lindgren commented that it doesn't pass the ADA code and that was brought up at one of the Forest Service meetings. However, she added that handicap people can use the path with no problem. Lindgren stated that wood chips are not one of the materials listed for ADA code. Swarner stated that all trails don't have to be ADA approved unless if under the grant the trail was included there might be a requirement to meet ADA requirements. Swarner asked if there was anything about ADA requirements in the grant application. Kebschull stated she had not read anything about ADA requirements but noted that the trail was not a part of the grant. Frates stated that wood chips may not have been included in the list of recommended materials but felt the chips may meet codes. It would depend on how thick the layer was and noted that as long as it is still accessible by wheel chair, it is considered accessible. Lindgren commented that they had not received any complaints from handicapped people who had visited their site. In addition, they had one group of handicapped people who said it should be listed in the national register because it was accessible even though it wasn't constructed of recommended materials. Swan stated it had been a concern so they had made a point to inquire of their visitors how. they were Townsite Historic District Board January 23, 1996 Page 3 Work Session Minutes doing and noted they have not received any complaints. Frates commented that they should make every effort to make the trail wheel chair accessible. Huhndorf noting the elders did not want a trail, wondered what would be an adequate substitute. Huhndorf questioned if there would be a boardwalk, or what else. Lindgren stated she was at the meeting with the elders and the thing that they didn't want was a guided tour and people talking about what happened. Lindgren added that she didn't feel the objection was to a trail to a bench or to the sign, the objection was to other people interpreting the history of the area. Lindgren added that they do need to bring the elders to another meeting and get their opinion. Frates asked if the sign would be laminated and painted. Swan stated it will be a computerized etching which is quite durable for all-weather signs. Swan added that she had designed the sign and it will be reproduced by the same people who did the sign for the Cooper Landing site. Frates asked if there was any vandalism, would it be possible just to replace the front piece? Lindgren commented that it could be removed during the winter and noted that the sign they have they just put the sign inside the fiberglass and it is bolted. It is a special bolt that requires a special wrench to remove the bolt. During the winter, they pull the sign out and put a tarp over the sign. Lindgren added that they have a design for the base because they used rocks noting that their campers built the base. Lindgren stated that it was very easy construction and it is a beautiful sign. Gray asked if it would be easier if the KIT representatives met with the elders and prepared a sketch of a path and the layout and let the Board know what they would like. Then, Gray stated the Board could determine how it could be accomplished. Smagge stated they could do that but also bring them to a meeting. Gray stated it sounds like it will be fairly simple to accomplish the task once it is determined what they want to do. Werner-Quade mentioned that she liked Mr. Huhndorf's idea of a central location for the sign as it gives two accesses to egress the location. Huhndorf commented that it is important to locate the sign where it will give the best view. Swan mentioned that the style of benches might be a consideration also adding that they built their benches for the Cooper Landing trail. Gray stated she had thought they would be natural wood benches. Lindgren stated that when they constructed the trail, the hardest job was peeling the logs because the logs were beetle -kill spruce. The logs were placed and the Forest Service notched them because the youth could not use a chain saw. They also drilled a hole and then rebar was pounded in to hold the logs together. A piece of doweling was put in the hole to hide the rebar. Lindgren stated you must peel the logs or else they will deteriorate more rapidly. Lindgren added that they built the base for the sign last year. The base comes up 2 feet. They dug down about three feet for the uprights with a post hole digger. The base is made with rock that they had collected. Townsite Historic District Board January 23, 1996 Page 4 Work Session Minutes Lindgren reiterated that they were able to do all of this work with youth. Lindgren noted that the trail is 1 100 feet long and it took 10 youth working 4 hours a day less than three weeks to built the trail. Gray stated that she had talked to Frates about another problem they have had there because of the cannery and the adjacent property. It has been a popular place for cannery workers to camp out. Gray commented she felt this was because at the up river side of the property there are some trees and shrubs and it looks like they have bulldozed dirt up they created lots of little hills and gullies. These are perfect places to pitch tents. Gray stated that the city officer has been great about kicking the campers out. Gray stated that Frates suggested a permanent fence on the cannery side of the property to deter the cannery workers. Werner-Quade stated that you can't expect people to know what is wanted, they have to be directed. Swan shared a quick sketch with the group of the sign at Cooper Landing noting that she had drawn in the angles that the proposed sign would have. The sketch showed the stone base. Lindgren commented that the sign can be removed for winter storage, the panels basically slide in and out. Lindgren noted that once you do the first fiberglass sign it is half the cost should you need to have another sign made since the blue print is don. Lindgren noted that is important in case there is any vandalism and the signs has to be replaced. They noted that they had had no vandalism. Werner-Quade stated it might benefit the city to have an official visit the canneries to let them know that this is an important site for the city and to let the workers know it is not a place for partying, camping, etc. Werner-Quade commented that the city could even request that they post a sign to let the workers know what the city's expectations are for the site. Gray stated that the Historic Board had talked about submitting this area to be included on the National Historic Register. Gray commented that the KIT representatives may want to discuss this with their elders and see how they feel about designating the site. Lindgren commented that if it was designated the site would always stay as it is. Gray suggested setting the date for the next meeting. Lindgren asked the group if what they would like the tribe to do is have elders at the meeting and to come up with a suggested sketch for the site. Gray asked Frates if he had an opportunity to get pricing for the fence for the property edge. Huhndorf asked if he should look into nominating the site for the National Historic Register. Next meeting for Townsite Board is February 27' at 7 p.m. with a work session before at 6 p.m. Kebschull noted that the Board should write a memo to council for permission to hold the work session.

Kathy Scott, project facilitator, opened the meeting. She reported changes to the project timeline and updated the committee on her recent conversation with Annie Roskell, Regional Director, Challenger Center for Space Science Education in Virginia. The timeline now reflects the committee's current schedule and the points of interaction with the Challenger Center of Space Science Education. Annie suggests that the committee proceed with an application to the Board of Directors on April 29, 1996 preceded by a teleconference with Vice President of Marketing, Drantel A. LaBry in February. Challenger Learning Center sites are not required to have funds committed for capital outlay prior to making a site designation application. The probable capital funding sources should be identified in the business plan accompanying the application. To be considered at the national board's April meeting, the application should be received by Challenger Center in early April. The application must be accompanied by a $1DW fee. Mission Launch Crew Report (Facility and Program Design) Jan Bobek gave the committee's report summarizing the work of two meetings held January 2 and January 8 at the Kenai Peninsula College. The committee's recommendations regarding facility and site development are: • Design and build the facility to allow for future expansion. • Design parking with shared -facility use in mind (i.e. MAPTS & Fire Training Center building). • The first phase of the project should accommodate three activity centers requiring about 10A00 square feet. (Homer's Pratt Museum, the Kenai FAA facility and the Kenai Visitor Center are all about 10,000 square feet.). The activity centers include. K. Scott do Associates, Im. • PA. Boz 2488 • Kenai, Alaska 99611- 2488 Phone (907) 2EM5130/Faa (907) 283-5918 - a "hands-on" or interactive exploratorium concept related to the sciences and industry or technology (about 3,000 square feet). - the Challenger Learning Center (approximately ZOO square feet). - a small auditorium or lecture area (about 3,000 square feet) for Challenger Learning Center orientations, classroom rental, presentations and/or lectures. The room will include a large screen for viewing NASA missions, computer internet monitoring, video tape showing and the facility should be fully A-V equipped. - Undesignated space will be used for reception and storage area. • Develop the design in a shape encouraging simple architectural remedies to address aesthetics. Complicated designs are expensive and complicate future expansions. • Reserve three to four acres, near the pond, of the 40 acre Baron Park Subdivision No. 7, Tract A-1. located on Marathon Road and currently leased to the University of Alaska from the City of Kenai (see attached exhibit). • Name the facility The Science and Industry Institute of Alaska (SIIA). Dave Feldman shared illustrations of varying concepts for the facility's design. These potential programs and groups were identified as probable users of services and space provided in the Institute facility by the Challenger Learning Center program during the first phase of development: • Grades K-12 public, private and home schools statewide • Leadership training (leadership, team building, decision making, etc) probably provided by a contract service with the potential of qualifying for advanced training or college credit. The training would target in -state, out -of -the area corporations, large, in -area employers (School district, hospital, government. etc.) • Board of director and non-profit volunteer training. • Summer space camps in conjunction with the Federal Aviation Agency. • Youth and adult organizations - developmental experiences. IL Scott & Associates, Inc. 2 January 24,1996 • Private youth summer camps (as part of their program). • Tourist mini -flight programs. • The general public in response to notable science and technology speakers. Potential future development might include: • Applications of virtual reality technology • A space observatory • An I -Max Theater Mission Control Committee (Revenue /Operating Cost and Ownership DesiL'nl Aleja DeV1to stepped in for Dennis Steffy to summarize the work of the committee. The committee recommends: • Ownership of the facility by the City of Kenai and leasing the facility's operation to the University of Alaska as a science/technology instructional/educational site. • Develop the facility with an educational focus, supported by ancillary activities and facility uses appealing to a local, state-wide and visitor industry audience. • Operate a self-supporting year-round program. (Revenue potential in the first year or two will likely be sluggish unless greatly advanced program marketing is undertaken. Expenses for the first few years will include capital costs for equipping office(s) and audio-visual facilities). • Generate $200A00 annually from 11,000 participants to support the expense of operating. (Revenue projections are based in -part on the number of state-wide school users visiting Pratt Museum. 7,700+ students visited during 1994-95 schooI year. Many combine the Alaska Coastal Studies Center trip to Peterson Bay; houaever the facility is too small to accommodate all of them. Schools from all of southcentral and part uaay into the interior of Alaska are included in this attendance figure. Feuaer school students attend the Imaginatarium in Anchorage, a smaller size and program scope science exploration attraction). • Anticipated expenses of $200,000 annually includes personnel, contractual services, commodities and supplies and one-time equipment purchases. K. Scod & Associates, Inc. 3 January 24,1996 CommnnicationS ComMittee Rene Azzara presented a brochure design concept, using color photography in a two -fold, 8 1 J2 X 14 inch format. The committees' discussion resulted in the following recommendations: • Produce 500 color brochures, using color at least on one side • Use photos of children at the Challenger Center in Seattle • Keep the copy simple and oriented to support of the facility, program(s), facility design, ownership, target or user groups, operating and capital costs. • Allow flexibility for future changes as the project concept evolves • Use the Challenger Learning Center logo on the piece Presentations (20-30 minutes long) are slated for Kenai Rotary on January 22, Phi Delta Kappa January 23, Kenai Chamber, January 31, Nikiski Chamber on February 1, Soldotna Chamber on February 6 and Kenai City Council On February 7. The purpose of the presentations is to ignite interest and develop a support base about the concept as well as receiving general comment and feedback. The presentation format includes: • Communications Committee opening comments and introduction of the video tape The Challenger Center (2 min) • Video tape (SA min) • Launch Crew Committee discuss ideas on facility and program design (3-5 min) • Mission Control Committee talk about ownership, operating costs and revenue potential (3-5 min) • Personal experience of a steering committee member who has observed Challenger Learning Center program first hand (Dennis Steffy, Duane Bannock or Kathy Scott) . • Communications close with introduction of anyone present who is on the steering committee, then asking for questions and comments. Kim Booth, Dennis Steffy, Ginger Steffy, as primary presenters with Donna Peterson, Jan Bobek, John Dah*ren, Duane Bannock and Aleja Devito agreeing to fill-in as needed. Kathy is available for back-up and will adjust the presentation format to meet Kenai City Council's time constraints. H- Sett & Assodates, Inc. 4 January 24,1996 Capital Investment Committee In the absence of Mayor John Williams, Kathy Scott summarized the work of the Capital Investment Committee: It is anticipated that the core funding will be drawn from various state agencies and programs as well as corporate donors, municipal and state legislative support. In other challenger centers across the nation, corporate sponsorship has been successfully solicited from companies contracted and sub -contracted by NASA to build space craft. Some of those companies may be even more approachable if they do business in Alaska particularly with the Pocker Flats rocket/satellite launch facility or with the Kodiak launch facility. Corporate sponsorship opportunities exist not only in the partnership approach to building the facility but in purchasing and creating displays and equipment for use within the facility. This partial list illustrates potential funding sources for the Challenger Learning Center: Alaska Science and Technology Foundation Alaska Aerospace Administration Alaska State Legislature Corporate Donors City of Kenai If the scope of the project is 10,000 square feet and commercial building costs are computed a $150 per square foot the base cost of building the facility is $15 million dollars. Added to the base cost is the equipment package for Challenger Learning Center ranging between $850,000-$1 million. Additional site preparation such as landscaping, equipment and displays will realistically push the project to about $3 million dollars for the start-up phase. Facilities with an educational/tourism vent currently planned for the Kenai Peninsula include a volcano center at approximately $5 million (no site cost included) slated for the southern peninsula coastal area and Seward's Alaska SeaLife Center estimated at nearly $50 million.

Rozak graduated from KCHS last spring. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 3 Rozak stated his appreciation of Bob Frates' work at the Teen Center and added he believed Frates does a commendable job. Rozak added, all teens know they are allowed to use the Center, but the present atmosphere may not be what they want. He suggested changes be made to the Center in order to encourage teenagers to use the Teen Center more which might lower the danger of them driving around in bad weather, on icy roads and keeping some out of mischief. Rozak suggested the addition of overstuffed chairs, a couch, card tables and chairs, coffee pot, chess boards, etc. would improve the atmosphere and allow for organized activities (card game tournaments) and an inviting place for listening to music and talking with friends in a non-smoking environment. Rozak stated he had visited some second-hand stores, garage sales, and thrift stores to investigate the cost of used furniture. He added, sturdy furniture would be needed and found that there was a variety available at reasonable -prices. Also, Rozak suggested bands be hired to play at the Center from time to time which would encourage teens to come there and have a good time. Rozak added, Frates suggested requesting support to allow local teens, who normally do not have a lot of exposure to outdoor activities, to travel to Alyeska to ski and snowboard, Seward, etc. Funds could be raised to defray travel costs from car washes, bake sales, etc. Councilman Smalley asked what costs he found for the used furniture. Rozak answered, costs varied from $125-150 for couches, $45-60 for overstuffed chairs, and approximately $200 for table and chair sets. Smalley asked if Rozak considered a computer terminal be available for teens to access the InterNet. Rozak stated he had not thought of that, but thought it would be a good idea. It would be a source of information and recreation. Mayor Williams requested Administration to place the purchase of furniture, etc. for the Teen Center in next year's budget for discussion at budget work sessions. Student Mayor Olson informed councils the Kenai Rotary had offered a donation of $5,000 for the renovation of Old Towne Park if the city matches the amount. Williams requested this item be included in the Parks & Recreation budget for discussion at budget sessions as well. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 4 B-3. Jean Rimple - League of Women Voters/Development of Steering Committee for "Kids Voting - Alaska." Ms. Kimple stated she resides in Sterling and has lived in the area for many years.

Kimple explained Alaska is included in the pilot program which encourages young people to be involved with voting which may encourage their parents to be involved. Kimple stated the League of Women Voters will hold an organizational meeting on February 3 at 10:30 a.m. A state representative will be attending to help format the program. Student Councilwoman Russell stated it seemed the program would be core curriculum from grades kindergarten to 12. Kimple stated the program would be integrated into the American History and government classes. They don't expect the integration of the program into those classes to add more work to the students or instructors. Russell asked how the remaining 30% of the costs to promote the program would be covered. Kimple answered through corporate sponsors within the local communities and throughout the state. Through donations, there would not be added costs to the School District. Kimple added, the program would include discussions with candidates, issues, etc. A voting booth for children would be available at voting polls, however in order for a youngster to use the voting booth, a parent would have to accompany the child. Kimple added, the school district is ready to get involved. The overall goal is to get youngsters aware and encourage them to be involved throughout their lives. Mayor Williams suggested a resolution in support of the program be brought before council for consideration. ITEM C: PUBLIC HEARINGS C-1.

Ms. Robbins presented an update for the assisted living complex to be built in Kenai. Robbins thanked the council and city administration, especially Senior Center Director Porter for the assistance she has received in bringing the assisted living complex to reality. Robbins added, their comments, as well as comments from other concerned individuals, were reviewed and they tried to integrate them into their final design. The complex was now at the stage for final approval (received from Planning & Zoning Commission) and they would now be completing their KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 13 financial arrangements. They hope to begin work on the complex in the spring and open at Christmas 1996 or Valentines Day, 1997. Robbins, with the aid of overhead transparencies, reviewed the design of the complex, now named Autumn Court. Robbins indicated the first floor would house residents requiring intermittent nursing care; the second floor, more independent residents, needing a lower need of care. The building would also house a recreation area and physical therapy area, a dining area where three meals will be offered daily, as well as snacks, etc. They will be involving the community through barbecues, programs, outdoor activities, etc. Robbins stressed the success of the facility depends on community involvement. Robbins added, there will be an in-house beauty parlor, storage areas and in-house help living quarters. Landscaping of the complex grounds has been designed by Merle Dean Feldman (Kenai Peninsula resident). She will be using a variety of perennials and will incorporate the colors of flowers now growing in the Leif Hansen Memorial Park and at the Senior Center. Robbins added, the resident units are normally not furnished as they encourage their residents to bring items of furniture they are familiar with. They will have someone available to help coordinate the rooms, if needed. The floors will be wooden. They don't want the facility to look like a nursing home. The residents will elect their own mayor and council within the facility. They have chosen the late 1800's as a theme for the interior design of the facility. They will be furnishing the facility with antiques and coordinating furniture. Robbins was asked if the residents could have animals. Robbins answered they are not usually allowed. Many of their residents will be very ill with lung and breathing problems. It would be difficult to have animals on a full-time basis. However, families and visitors will be able to bring animals to visit. Robbins added there will be 56 units. They will encourage husbands and wives to stay together. They will be accepting low income vouchers. Receipt of the vouchers is dependent on the level of care needed and are available through a statewide program called Choice. The facility will be available for all income ranges on the Kenai Peninsula. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 14 There is a security program for the facility. Residents are free to come and go, however they have a program to monitor individuals who require it. They will also have a fenced area in one section of the yard for those who need more intense monitoring. There will be garden islands available for planting as well as a garden club/committee of residents. They will work with the person in charge of landscaping. Robbins stated they have twelve other facilities, nine of which are under construction in different areas. This will be their first project in Alaska. Autumn Court will be moderate in size compared to their other facilities. The size of the facility varies with the need of the area. Some of the facilities incorporate apartments around them, some incorporate Alzheimer apartments, etc. The architecture firm and engineers (structural and mechanical), etc. work in Alaska and are Alaska -licensed as well. Robbins added, this facility was designed for this particular area. Their oldest complex is 12 years old and is in Utah. BREAK TAKEN: 8:41 P.M. BACK TO ORDER: 9t00 P.M.

On the issues of concern on the Workers' Comp and liability insurance, it was the intent to handle the way it is outlined in the memo. Councilman Smalley asked if the City Attorney agreed with the plan for handling the Workers' Comp and liability insurances. Attorney Graves answered the city would have to be named as an additional insured on the liability which is not unusual and is routinely done now. Also, as long as the workers are covered by Workers' Comp. there should not be a problem. Councilman Bookey questioned Section I regarding right-of-ways, stating that if the city was to do any work, the right-of-ways should be clear-cut. Manninen stated the concern there was that in some areas there is an 80 ft. right-of-way and other areas there is 60. For an adequate road you may need two 11 ft. lanes, maybe four foot on each side, you may need 30 ft. maximum, not 60 or not 80. You may not want to clear it unless you have a lot of dead trees in there. That's why it was placed on the agenda for discussion. If council wants to clear it, they will clear it. If council wants to take 30 out of the middle, they will take 30 out of the middle and all the dead trees that are marked, and take them out too. Kornelis stated he wrote that portion in that manner because, as he recalled, when the city sold some of Section 36, the buyers changed a bit of the road right-of-way. If they clear cut the existing right-of-way, it may not be what future buyers would want. Bookey stated he agreed with Smalley and perhaps there should be a 30 or 40 foot right-of-way. If water and sewer are placed in there in the future, the trees would have to be removed anyway. If a logger is going to be working in that area, now would be the time to have them removed. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 18 Kornelis stated he would not suggest taking the full 80-foot right-of-way and Bookey agreed. Kornelis suggested the center at30 ft. Bookey stated he would be comfortable with 30 or 40 feet. Williams requested a change be made to that portion of the removal plan, designing it so that the center 40 ft. of all right-of-ways be cleared. Kornelis asked if Williams meant all of it, or only on city -owned rights -of -ways. Williams clarified only the 40 ft. of the center of right-of-ways owned by the city. Williams suggested that, for the record that private individuals who have adjoining properties and who wish to clear their right- of-ways, contact the contractor and arrange for any clearing they may want done at their expense. Kornelis stated he has only received comments from Dr. Hansen. Williams also suggested that Administration, when preparing the document and proceeding with the project, advise the adjoining property owners what the city is doing and who the contractor will be. Councilman Moore referred to a question brought up during the last discussion regarding child labor laws. Moore asked if that would be covered through EDD and the Boys & Girls Club. Kornelis stated he believed so from what they verbally stated to them during their meeting. Attorney Graves stated he could check with the Department of Labor to make sure no child labor laws would be broken. Kornelis stated that a lot of the loggers would not be happy that the city is asking for the stumps to be removed. After a lot of thought and discussion, they thought it would be better if they were removed. The city will not be paid as much, but removal of the stumps would be safer. It would probably make the property more desirable for future purchase. Williams stated he believed the council wanted the best deal for the city. If the right-of-ways are cleared, they will be better off. Measles and Smalley agreed and added, the dead trees would be gone as well. Kornelis stated he planned on putting a contractor questionnaire in the bid package to ensure getting a reputable firm with experience and the capability of doing the best job for the city. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 19 ITEM H: NEW BUSINESS H-1.

Carlson (Tract B Shore Fishery Lease No. 1), and Tim Veal (Shore Fishery Lease No. 1). MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED for approval of the tidelands lease applications as presented. Councilman Moore SECONDED the motion. Williams asked if there were any questions from council regarding the applications or from Administration with regard to the Harbor Commission's report. There were no comments or questions. Williams asked if Administration was satisfied with the report. There were no comments. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 20 VOTE: Councilman Smalley requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT. There were no objections. 80 ORDERED. H-6. Approval - Alaska Sales & Service, d/b/a National Car Rental - Request to Terminate Lease in Airport Terminal. Administrative Assistant Kim Howard reported Alaska Sales & Service, d/b/a National Car Rental requested to cancel their lease. Through her investigation, she found the lessee current with sales and property taxes. The lessee would like to have the cancellation effective on 1/18/96 and the City Attorney has drafted a rescission. Councilman Measles reported the Airport Commission moved to recommend that council accept the termination of the lease and in addition, that the space not be advertised for release until future renovation of the area is investigated. The Commission suggested converting the five counterspaces to four larger spaces. Williams suggested waiting until budget time to discuss the matter and asked council for their comments. Councilman Bookey stated he would like to wait and discuss the remodeling until budget time. There may be someone else who would want to rent the space until then. Smalley agreed and added he did not object to the rescission, but thought discussion of remodeling should wait until budget time. MOTION: Councilman Measles MOVED that the Council accept National Car Rental's request to terminate their lease in the Airport Terminal. Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. 80 ORDERED. H-7. Approval - Change Order No. 2/Kenai Senior Center 1995 Addition (Solarium) - $700.00. Public Works Director Kornelis explained the original set of specifications did not ask for tile underlayment. The tile installer recommended to Architect Kluge that underlayment be placed which would protect the tile from cracking. Kornelis also KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 21 reported Kluge requested the work be done otherwise the job would have had to be stopped. Kluge contacted Kornelis after the work was done. Kornelis added, the underlayment included 17 sheets of plywood at a cost of $700. If the underlayment had been included in the original drawings, the bid would have shown that cost. Kornelis added, he believed it was a good price. Kornelis also reported the contractor has requested a substantial completion inspection. Kornelis reminded council they allowed $1,000 for costs such as these because there was no contingency in the work budget. Councilwoman Swarner stated she objected to change orders when the work was already completed. She added she was disappointed with the architect that there was no underlayment included in the original drawings as underlayment is always recommended. Swarner stated she would not support the change order. Councilman Smalley noted it was not the fault of the contractor that the underlayment was not included in the drawings. The contractor spent the $700 for the plywood at the direction of the architect. Williams added, he would not want the contractor to bear the cost of the plywood as it was not his error. MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED for approval of Change Order No. 2, Kenai Senior Center 1995 Addition (Solarium) for a not -to -exceed amount of $700. Councilman Measles SECONDED the motion. VOTE: Smalley: Yes Swarner: No Bannock: Absent MOTION PASSED. Williams: Yes Moore: Yes Bookey: Yes Measles: Yes H-8. Discussion - Thompson Park Water and Sewer Improvement Special Assessment District - Assessment Roll Finance Director Sweeney reviewed his report which was included in the packet in regard to the Thompson Park Water and Sewer Improvement Special Assessment District. He identified those KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 22 parcels on which assessments were much higher than most of the other lots and reminded council the Kenai Municipal Code includes a provision which states a special assessment cannot be more than 25% of the total value of the property with the assessment included in it. There were two calculations made in the report: the fair allocation of special assessment district costs to each parcel of property based on square footage and a potential reduction of the amount due to the 25% limit. The initial assessment roll (which was supplied to the property owners at the beginning of the project) and the final assessment roll were also enclosed in the report. A map showing the different lot types was also included with the information. Sweeney noted the Code recommends that the determination of the assessment be decided by the square footage equation, however it also allows for council to use another method at their discretion. Council may also correct errors in the assessment roll or inequalities. The report discussed the different allocation methods to determine assessments: (1) assessment of the same amount per parcel (the total cost of the improvements is divided by the n6mber of affected lots and each lot is assessed the same amount regardless of lot size); (2) Assessment of a proportionate share of costs based on total square footage (the total cost of the improvements is divided by the total square footage of the affected lots and an improvement amount is assessed to each square foot); (3) Assessment of a proportionate share of costs based on total frontage footage (the total cost of the improvements is divided by the total frontage footage of the affected lots by which the improvement is passed and an improvement amount is assessed to each square foot). Williams informed those persons in the audience that although it was not the public hearing for the ordinance, he would allow comments from those who wanted to make them. Devayne Benton - Benton asked if the property owners would get a copy of the final assessment roll prior to the public hearing. Sweeney answered yes, by Code it was required. Williams explained the project was completed under the bid. The original roll was based on the anticipated assessment. After the completion of the project, the assessments were adjusted in line KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 23 with the actual cost of the project. The assessment for the parcels that can be subdivided in the future would remain the same. His concern were those large lots that cannot be subdivided due to an amount of the property being swamp area. Carroll Murphy - 270 Eisenhower. Murphy stated he owned the large piece of property which was assessed for $16,000. Williams noted the assessment had been adjusted to $11,000. Murphy asked if it was assessed going in 150 ft. Kornelis answered they used the 150 ft. amount as it was an original government lot and not subdivided. Murphy stated the assessed value of the lot was set at $139,000 and he did not understand how that valuation was assigned. Williams answered the Borough Assessor decides on the assessed value of the property. Kornelis added, the assessed value is based on the property, improvements and water/sewer. The city used the Borough's assessed value. Joe Fischer - 230 Eisenhower. Fischer asked what the basis of the formula was. Kornelis answered the initial assessment roll was based on the estimated cost for the project. The percentage was taken and the cost was divided between the property owners. Upon completion of the project, the cost was less. There was a savings to everybody, including the city and the property owners. The assessments are now based on the actual cost of the project. It is the same formula. Fisher stated it did not seem to be a good formula for the larger lots. The benefit of the project is not in the larger lots. He requested council consider that. Williams noted the public hearing on the final assessment roll was scheduled for February 7 and a copy of the report included in the packet at this meeting would be available for property owners at city hall. H-9. Discussion - Kenai Peninsula Borough/Kenai River Protection Area Ordinance. Mayor Williams reported he requested the Borough's ordinance be placed on the agenda as he felt it needed council's attention prior to its public hearing. Williams noted memoranda included in the packet from the Building Official and the City Engineer regarding problems they saw for the city in regard to the ordinance. Williams also noted the memorandum from the Finance Director at I-5 in regard to the amount of real and property taxes the fish processors bring to the city. Also, information KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 24 from Salamatof Seafoods in regard to salaries, taxes, income, expenses, licenses and permits was included in the packet. Williams asked Attorney Graves for his comments on the ordinance. Williams noted he was concerned about language in the draft which was not thought to be in it when the work group was developing the ordinance. Williams noted his concern regarding variances (page 2 of the ordinance). With the new language, upgrading, enlarging, etc. of the canneries, would be very difficult. Also, he understood that the areas below the bridge would not be a part of the ordinance. The new draft ordinance is not written like that. It now speaks to it as involving property all the way to the mouth of the river. There is also concern about the liability in regard to whether the city should accept the responsibility from the borough to administer the ordinance. The ordinance is not what was anticipated, not what was expected and not what the city said they would accept. Attorney Graves was a member of the working group who developed a new ordinance. However, Graves stated he believed the present draft of the ordinance varied significantly from the intent of. the group's ordinance. The variations were in two areas: (1) the language about a variance requiring deprivation of all reasonable use of the property before it being granted. This was not the intent of what he understood would be requiring a variance. He did not know where the language came from. It was not what he supported and not what a lot of the members of the committee supported. (2) The section regarding prior -existing uses is now a lot stricter than what the committee intended. Graves added, during the committee meetings, he made no bones about the fact that part of his charge was to protect the economic viability of the canneries. The city wanted to do that and wanted to make sure the canneries could go ahead forever and expand to meet new business needs and opportunities. His understanding of the other members of the committee that this was their intention as well. They wanted the canneries to be able to operate as long as it was economically viable and recognized that the canneries would have to change and make modifications, etc. like other businesses, to keep up with current conditions. Graves added, he did not believe the restriction on prior -existing uses now meets the requirements of the committee. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 25 Graves added, because of the restrictions, it approaches a taking in a lot greater extent than what he anticipated and it also increases the city's liability if the city enforces the ordinance. Graves stated he agreed with Mayor Williams in that the new ordinance is not what he thought would come from the committee. The new ordinance does not do what they wanted it to do, i.e. protecting the canneries, etc. Also, when the canneries agreed to be included in the ordinance, it was their understanding they would be protected in the ordinance. Graves stated his other major complaint was that the ordinance makes violation of its provisions a misdemeanor. This means that there is a jury trial, a public defender could be appointed which is a very cumbersome process for a $300 fine. Under Alaska law, if someone is charged with a misdemeanor, they get a jury. If the city would enforce the ordinance, the city would have to pay the court system for the jurors, a court -appointed lawyer (if needed), etc. Williams stated the violation portion also forces the city into a position of using public funds to prosecute the people. Councilman Smalley noted that at the Planning & Zoning Commission meeting, Commissioner Bryson brought the ordinance to their attention because of his membership to the Borough Planning & Zoning Commission. His and City Engineer La Shot's concerns were similar, i.e. the definition of "all" the cut -bank, the prior - existing uses concerns, potential court actions, etc. Graves stated that it was important to note on the taking issue that if the Borough takes a piece of recreational property, they may pay $50,000. If the city takes a cannery, the city would pay several million, plus potentially lost profits. The city's liability is much greater than the Borough's liability. Williams asked if the Borough passed the ordinance in its present form and they became the sole responsible party for enforcing the ordinance and the city stayed clear out of it, would it put all the liabilities of takings onto the Borough. Graves stated it would. Measles agreed and noted that the only places where the Borough backed off in the ordinance was the size. He understood that there would be a push from assembly members to put the size of the area back to what it was before, including all the flood plains. If the Borough passes the ordinance, Measles stated he believed the city would be back to where it was last year and KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 26 should not accept the responsibility of the ordinance. Additionally, if the ordinance passed, the city should hold true to its original discussion of going to court to find if the Borough has authority to impose the ordinance on the city of Kenai. Also, the city should withdraw that portion of the river inside the city limits from the ordinance. Measles added, he did not think the city would ever come to an agreement with the Borough on the ordinance. Williams stated the ordinance comes to public hearing on March 6. Williams suggested city representation should be at the public hearing. Smalley noted the city did have representation on the Assembly. Smalley suggested the city might convey their concerns with the ordinance to them and invite them to a council meeting to discuss the matter with them. Measles stated they had not listened to council before. Smalley suggested a letter be sent to the Borough and requested Attorney Graves attend the meeting on January 22. Attorney Graves stated he would attend the meeting. Smalley stated he believed Commissioner Bryson would be attending as well and would voice the same concerns. Council agreed. Mayor Williams referred to information included in the packet of H-9, the proposed change to the Kenai River Sockeye Salmon Management Plan which has been suggested by the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. Williams noted the proposal included placement of an emergency weir in the Kenai River and 24 hours -a -day, seven -days - a -week openings for personal use dipnetting, from July 1 to August 15 or sooner. They also want the dipnetting to go from the mouth of the river to below Cunningham Park. The proposal also suggests increasing the run into the Kenai River from 700,000 to 1.1 million fish in order to make sure there is a major escapement into the River for the dipnet fishing. Williams stated he, as well as Mayor Gilman, were extremely upset that the proposal to raise the salmon run into the River was submitted by the Mat -Su Borough. The proposal also stated those most likely to benefit would be Fall south-central sport and personal use fisherman, some southcentral district commercial salmon fisheries and smaller increases in the allocation for the Kenai River would not provide enough fish in the river for needed levels of escapement and recreational and personal use fishing, nor offer adequate protection for small stocks mixed in with the Kenai sockeye, but needed for the Susitna drainage." KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 27 Williams noted that their intention would be for the Kenai River to be flooded, by pulling off commercial fisherman, and by doing that, there would be more escapement to the Susitna. Williams requested council's permission to write a letter to the Mat -Su Borough Assembly and the Board of Fisheries regarding the entire matter. Williams showed two video tapes, in regard to dipnetting at the mouth of the Kenai River. BREAK TAKEN TO WATCH VIDEOS: 9:55 p.m. BACK TO ORDER: 10:15 P.M. Council had no objections for Williams to write to the Board of Fisheries and the Mat -Su Assembly and Mayor and thank them for their concerns, but suggest strongly they stay out of the City of Kenai's business. BREAK TAKEN: 9=55 P.M. BACK TO ORDER: 10:15 P.M. H-10. Discussion - Drug and Alcohol Testing Policies. H-10a. Reasonable Suspicion Drug and Alcohol Testing. Because of the length of the meeting, Councilman Bookey suggested they consider only the Commercial Drivers License portion. The reasonable suspicion portion could be discussed at a future meeting. Attorney Graves stated he had no problems with the Commercial Drivers License portion of the program. He added, the reasonable suspicion portion, he felt, is a defensible program. Also, he did not think department heads had any concerns with non-CDLs. Councilman Measles stated the city is not under a time line for non-CDLs but are on CDLs. Measles added, he would like to only address the CDL portion at this meeting and address the other at a later date. There were no objections. H-10b. Commercial Drivers Drug and Alcohol Testing. Councilman Bookey asked if they were confident the policy met with federal requirements. Engineering Technician Clark stated yes and in some situations it is even more stringent. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 28 City Manager Manninen stated that Clark had done a lot of research in that area and the staff has gotten some valuable insight through the GSTN tapes. They've had alcohol and drug testing segments at 20 and 25 minutes at a time. They are into their third one now and also they give sources for additional information for those people that have already implemented and they are able to get information from them and Clark has been drafting and redrafting. So did Keith and that is why they have the random testing and the reasonable suspicion testing, reasonable suspicion applied to police, fire and general city government and random to the CDLs. MOTION: Councilman Bookey MOVED to accept the Drug and Alcohol Testing Policies, Portion B, Commercial Drivers Drug and Alcohol Testing as written. Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion. Williams asked if there were any further questions or recommendations for Administration. Bookey requested that Part A come back to council at a future date for discussion. Williams noted the policy stated that questions are to be forwarded to department heads. Williams added, he hoped the department heads will be familiar with the content and be able to answer questions asked. Williams asked if there had been sessions with the department heads. Clark answered the only department heads with CDLs in their departments are Kornelis and Ernst. Kornelis stated there will be supervisor training and for the employees as well. Williams asked Kornelis how he felt about the policy. Kornelis answered, it is livable because it is a federal law. He added, he has reviewed the policy several times and changes have been made. Changes they would like to make, cannot be made as it is a federal law. Clark added the federal law is pretty cut and dried. VOTE: There were no objections. SO ORDERED. Manninen added, he wanted to make it clear that the reasonable suspicion testing is and has been in effect in the police and fire departments by their standard operating procedures. They will be up for council's consideration in the future too. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 29 H-11. Discussion - Position Classification Study/City Manager Report. Manninen requested that H-11 be heard as the volunteer work group responsible for doing the interviews and coming up with the recommendations were present and that council would not have to make any action on the final product, but he wanted to have them given their 15 minutes of fame and to get up and show council the product that they don't have to read unless they want to. What council had in front of them was an executive summary and requested Scott Walden, Lt. Jeff Kohler, Linda McNair, Bob Frates and Gerry Allen (who was not present) be recognized. They were the employees who did the interviews, sifted through the 100+ job questionnaires, interviewed about 75 employees, came up with the product and from that prepared the executive summary that shows the basic recommendations that they are saying would be adopted. Some of them (adopted) in fiscal 97's budget and some of them as soon as the council wishes to correct the gross inequities. Manninen added, as they would recall, the reason for doing this was in this current year's fiscal budget there was some discussion at a council meeting on the budget about changing two positions and council agreed that instead of just randomly changing two positions, do a study of all the positions, come back when you feel it's right, and this is the time, this is the executive summary we show, if you haven't read it, there are three positions that they say are grossly in order of need of adjustment and six other positions that will be needing adjustment within the next year or so and be grossly out of kilter if nothing is done within a year. They are recommending that those changes be made effective with the FY97 budget. Manninen asked that the group could give a five-minute highlight of the report. Williams thanked the group, on behalf of the council, for those who worked so hard to put the report together. In going through the summary, they recognize there was a tremendous amount of effort that went into the project. The council may not agree with everything brought to them, but do appreciate the tremendous amount of effort and hard work that went into it. Scott Walden - Referred to the information included in the packet and noted that the forms completed, graphs, scoring, etc. is KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 30 available for council review. Walden offered to review the information at another time when there was more time to explain what the graphs meant. Walden reported the study asked them to find the obvious inequities in the pay ranges. It did not ask them to find fractional things that may need attention on a department level. It asked to find the glaring areas that needed correction before becoming so large they could become unmanageable. As a group, they reviewed every employee questionnaire, every job description, every supervisory questionnaire and gave a specific weighted score, based on a proven weight system of 2,000 points to each position reviewed. They reviewed all the positions in the city, from part-time, up to the highest level. The group spent several weeks interviewing representatives of every position in order to answer questions they had that were not answered in the written form. As a result of the interviews, the written forms, all the scores based on those criteria, they came up with a specific score or weight for a position, based on everything from accountability, experience, education, responsibility, problem -solving, environment (where worked and type of work), technical knowledge. They were all considered and given a score of one to five, which turned into a number score ranging up to 200. After the reviews and interviews for 70 positions, they determined there were three positions which fell into the gross inequity range. The complete study (available in the City Manager's office) gives detail of where the categories fell into the weight schedule as far as their value. For someone to fall into a gross inequity, they had to exceed 200 points in their scoring system, out of a possible 2,000. To exceed the 200 points in their position, it meant the person had to score very high in three or more categories. They found that to be unusual as they went through the study. Six positions were found in the break -over point (those who scored fairly high above average and whose duties would continue to build, adding responsibilities within a year or more). Those positions exceeded the original responsibility level but to a lesser extent than the three obvious inequity categories. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 31 Walden referred to the summary included in the packet, which was written by the Finance Director for the City Manager. It summarized the details of what they did from step one through the final step. The recommendations for the correction of positions was included. Williams stated that during budget sessions, they could make a more detailed presentation, with the graphs prepared for overhead projection. Williams added, there was a fiscal note included in the study implementing part of the process now and implementing a second part at budget time. Also, there is a fiscal note in regard to merit pay. Williams explained that if the changes, including the merit pay, were included in the budget, there would be a $71,800 offset to the budget. They are aware the budget will come up short-changed this year on municipal assistance and revenue sharing, lower interest rates, etc. With those, there could be a deficit of $200,000 to $300,000. Williams thanked Walden and the work group for their efforts and added, the study will be given consideration at budget time. Councilman Measles noted the recommendation of the study was to take action on the three positions immediately and action on the other six during budget time for FY97. Measles asked if Williams wanted to wait until budget time and act on all nine positions at that time? Williams stated yes, and added he would hesitate to do anything in the middle of the budget. The potential budget impact for the present budget would be $12,400 for the remainder of the year and $24,800 thereafter. If a change is made at this time for the $12,400, a change would have to be expected in the amount of $24,800 at budget time. If the second phase is implemented at budget time, a change of $25,100, plus the merit, it will make an addition of $71,800 for the full budget. Williams stated that is why he was hesitating to start the process at this time. Manninen stated that to be clear, it was the direction the staff was given and that's the result and it's a policy decision as to whether to implement it at all, and if they do, when they want to implement it and how much of it. Councilwoman Swarner stated she appreciated all the work the work group did and the memorandum included in the packet. Swarner added, she would rather wait until budget time to implement the changes. Williams noted that he hopes to bring a clearer picture of the state's fiscal concerns back with him from Juneau and KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 32 present the information on January 25. Williams added, budgets this year will look different from the state level down to the municipalities. It is hard to guess what the city's next budget will look like as the downside is not known as yet. Williams asked if it was the consensus of council to not implement the changes at this time, but include the information in the upcoming budget discussion and review it more in depth? Smalley stated he could appreciate waiting until budget time, but it was a directive, as far as implementation by council, to identify the gross inequities. If it was just his decision to make, he would act on the recommendation at this meeting. He added, he believed it would be the best $12,400 the city could spend to correct any inequities. However, he added, he understood the importance of waiting until budget time and the majority of council feels the same. Williams stated it was not only the $12,400 change, but the $24,800. Councilman Moore asked if it was recommended to take immediate action and if they don't take the action, would the cost of not taking action going to outweigh the taking of action? Williams answered, either way, the automatic cost will be $24,800 at the next budget session. If implemented now, it would be cheap at $12,400, but after the change is made, they would not be able to move backwards. The budget would begin with an automatic $24,800 more. Moore stated he was looking at it manager may have to deal with who employees. Williams stated it is control the purse strings and not the council's decision to make. more as personnel the city are obviously underpaid the council's responsibility to the city managers. It would be Manninen stated that, in all fairness to the people who did the study and the results of the study, he did some independent checking after the study came in with a consultant he had a lot of confidence in, and he asked what the total" group was. Manninen stated he told him and he said there were probably three to five people who should be adjusted. Manninen stated he didn't tell him (the consultant) the findings of the city's study. Manninen added, the consultant had just finished a recent study in Michigan, and told Manninen that one of the positions the city has is one that he thought has been changed dramatically in the last five years and it was the Public Works engineering. (Manninen added, he believed it was one he brought to council's attention.) Manninen stated he agreed to rank it where it was KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 33 ranked and where it is in the budget now, but it's in there and been in effect for a year or two and it came up and it just stuck right out. The consultant told him that is what has been happening all over the country and in his studies. Manninen added, he has to eat humble pie on it and go back to engineering and public works and say, the facts are proving that they were right in their original recommendation. That still does not change it. It is the council's decision. It's a budgetary decision. He hopes that when the decision is made, that the people are made whole from the point that the report came to the council so that the gross inequities would get some kind of adjustment for a period that if they were in the job for a year or two years, that at least it would start from the period that the report came to the council. The other inequities could be corrected beginning of the fiscal year, especially if those positions had been doing that kind of job for at least the period of time from when the study was done. Manninen added, he was not asking for that, he was asking for consideration to be given from the point the council was made aware of the gross inequities. If council wants to make the decision later on, fine. He wanted to let council know that outside independent consultants are finding the same thing and the city didn't pay $20,000-$50,000 to an outside independent consultant to do the work. The city could have paid someone $50,000 and the report would have been done and the city would be $50,000 out, plus paying the $50,000-70,000 to correct the problem that was identified. Now, the city has had the study done in-house and he thought that whenever the council wants to do it with the fiscal year, it would be fine. However, the work was done with volunteer and a good job was done and he added, he was glad their work was recognized. Williams asked when the Range 3 Library Department Assistant's position was implemented? Librarian DeForest answered 1974-75. Williams asked when the Parks & Recreation Department Range 6 position was implemented. Answer was, the position was raised two years ago during a budget session (1993). Williams noted the Range 9 Engineering Technician position came on full-time about 1'h years ago. Williams stated, in two of three, the administration made a mistake in placing them in the ranges. When the study was done nine years ago, everything was in good shape. There may have been one inequity at that time. The other inequity at Parks & Recreation came about by not recognizing the job description in placing it. The Range 9 came about long after the original study KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 34 and may not have been implemented. Williams added, the problem he had with the third position was that the council discussed what they wanted and assigned the position to it and then the job came more than what they had originally envisioned. It was not followed up properly after the implementation of the job. Williams added, he specifically remembered discussing the position with the council and assigning a Range 9 to it under the description of the job that was to be done. Williams stated he believed it would be the responsibility of the department head to come to council at budget time and state it was the correct placement for then, but the job has changed and an increase is needed. Williams added, he did not think the possible change in the positions should be retroactive. Budgets for the government, or city, should not be retroactive. He does not believe it to be good policy. However, he believed they may have erred in not putting the appropriate ranges on two of the positions. Councilman Smalley asked how many times this year, did council make an adjustment to the budget where it had been increased after it was set. Williams stated, not in the case of salaries or in a situation where it would present the city with a continual responsibility. Smalley stated he would not go along with the consensus and would advocate the other way. Williams asked what council wanted to do. He added, there will be a number of items that will cost a lot of money in the next budget, i.e. water well, etc. It was agreed to bring the discussion back at budget time. H-12. Discussion - Recommended Changes to Kenai Municipal Code Personnel Policies. Williams suggested council could discuss the item and direct administration as to whether they wanted an ordinance brought back for consideration. Councilman Smalley asked if, on Page 1, Item 4, would it be sick leave or bereavement leave, but would come from sick leave. Attorney Graves answered, it was his understanding that it would be an addition to annual leave. Manninen added, presently annual leave covers all leave and there is staggered scheduled based on longevity as to how many hours an KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 35 employee accrues from 16-22 hours a month. This would be in addition to what is accrued, i.e. three working days, up to 24 hours maximum. Manninen asked if council wanted anything summarized. Councilman Bookey asked if Manninen came up with the changes or how they were developed? Manninen answered that to this time, there have been several meetings with all the departments and department heads and the original list was substantially longer and took a lot of time to get through. There were some areas they want to go with the attorney that are not reflected in the information in the packet. There are some areas that are just developing in personnel handbooks and guides, having to do with InterNet, E-mail, etc. that have not been approached or drafted as yet. That will be done in the future. These represent the consensus of several department meetings and department head meetings and reviews and comments from all departments and department heads were accepted and from the city attorney and taken into consideration and changes made accordingly. Mostly items were deleted. Councilwoman Swarner stated she would prefer leaving some of the items until budget time, but thought that some items needed to be addressed prior to budget time, i.e. leave of absence with pay, death in the family, etc. MOTION: Councilwoman Swarner MOVED to have an ordinance come back to change the code for Items 3 and 4 on page 1, and G on page 2, and the travel expenses (since it would affect the budget) be addressed at budget time, and an ordinance for approval on Items A, B, and C on pages 2 and 3, and the acting positions be brought back at budget time. Swarner questioned whether the breaks needed to be discussed now or too or if it was only a definition. Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion. Williams clarified that Swarner wanted the ordinance to handle everything but the travel expenses and acting positions. Councilman Measles stated he was not clear on the need to take those items out and wait until budget time, because the budgeted amount is a fixed number and not based on the number of days or the number of miles driven. The ordinance would not have any impact on the budget unless council authorizes additional transfers of monies into those line items. Measles added, that KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 36 if council was in agreement with it, that all should be included in one ordinance rather than piece-mealing it and rewriting the policy manual two or three times. MOTION TO AMEND: Councilman Measles MOVED to include all the items on the memorandum from the city manager into the ordinance. Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion. There were no objections to the amendment. SO ORDERED. VOTE ON AMENDED MOTION: There were no objections to the motion as amended. SO ORDERED. Williams noted the motion then directed administration to develop an ordinance and bring it back to council for consideration. EXECUTIVE 8E88ION None. ITEM I: ADMINISTRATION REPORTS I-1. Mayor a. Vehicle Fleet - Mayor Williams thanked the Finance Director for his report on the vehicle fleet financial management and central garage internal services. Williams stated he believed what was discussed in the memo would be more involved to implement than what he had envisioned. His original intention was for a vehicle fleet financial management program that would require each department, within their budget, to lease back their department vehicles and refund the money to the general fund. Williams asked council's opinion and added, his intention would be to front-end load the program in order to have a sufficient amount of funds for the foreseeable future and begin with the upcoming budget by causing the department budgets to have funds designated for the lease -backs. Williams asked how council felt about it and if they wanted the Finance Director to proceed with the program for their review at budget time. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 37 Councilman Bookey suggested the program be explored further and asked Williams how much financial support was he thinking about to begin the program. Williams suggested they should go ahead and design the program and define the funding at budget time. Williams noted he was surprised the heavy equipment fund had dropped quite low. Councilman Measles stated it had been brought to their attention some time ago that it did drop low. Measles added, when the fund was originally implemented, it was not council's intent to buy cars and pickups from that account. The fund was for heavy equipment. Later, the purchase of cars and pickups were paid from this fund. It would probably be a good time to start Williams' suggested program during the next budget because additional purchases of cars and pickups should not needed for the next few years. The program would not have to be funded to begin the program. It could be started by leasing -back or whatever method is developed to do it. Measles asked if the intent would be for all vehicles, including graders, fire trucks, ambulances, etc. to be included in the program, or only heavy equipment. Williams answered he thought, after the program was implemented, it would be all of them because there is a new ambulance, fire truck, etc. The only heavy equipment needing purchased is the backhoe. Kornelis corrected Williams and stated the backhoe would be taken from the water/sewer account, but a new sanding unit would come from the heavy equipment fund. Williams suggested the entire vehicle fleet be placed in the program. Measles stated then, whatever amount is in the present equipment fund would be the funding for the new vehicle management fund. Measles added, he did not think the vehicle management fund would need $1 million at budget time to start the program. There is already a starting point and the vehicle fleet is in good shape. There should be several years of building the fund until it can self -sustain. Williams stated he agreed and added he was anticipating adding approximately $120,000. Manninen requested clarification in order that administration knows the information council wants for the budget for this area. If one road is followed, they will be adding some operational staffing in one or two departments that may be unnecessary. On the road, if the intent is to fund the equipment replacement, to amortize the rolling stock fund and take whatever is out there and amortize it out and take money out of reserves from $500,000 KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 38 to $1 million and put it in a sinking fund or equipment replacement fund, that may not require any new employees. If they have to look at doing a lot of calculations and charging back from each department, it may require one or two new employees. Measles disagreed and added, he believed that after the system is set up it will be a matter at budget time for each department to include in their budget a value for each piece of equipment. Initially, a value and remaining life of a vehicle will need to be decided. The lease -back amount would be decided and the department head would include that in the budget to cover the lease -back amount. Measles added, after the program is set up, he did not expect any additional time would be needed to maintain the system. The first year would take time. Williams added, the central garage theory would not be developed. It would be only a vehicle replacement fund. Finance Director Sweeney added, every year the department head would have to re - estimate the value of each vehicle in order to know what the lease -back cost would be, based on use of the vehicle, condition of the vehicle, interest rates, etc. Williams requested the plan be brought back to council for consideration at budget time, showing how the plan could be implemented and what the cost would be to implement it. Kornelis asked if the plan would include only heavy equipment, pickups, etc. Measles stated it would include everything. Measles suggested including equipment costing over $10,000. b. Washington, DC Trip - Williams informed council he had been invited to attend the National Democratic Governors, Conference in Washington, DC. Williams stated he may want to attend and will get more information in regard to the trip while in Juneau next week. 1-2. City Manager a. Discussion with Hospital Administrator - Manninen reported he met with the hospital administrator, Rulon Barlow. Apparently, it was brought to his attention, by Councilman Bookey and Mayor Williams, that there is approximately $200,000 that the Kenai Peninsula Borough had budgeted for the hospital to do a "Kenai Presence." He spoke with Mr. Barlow and scheduled him to make a presentation to the Rotary on February 12. Barlow is KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 39 concerned about what a Kenai Presence means, a storefront in Kenai, medical clinic, attracting a new doctor, educational facilities services, mobile unit, etc. Manninen suggested he not only attend chamber lunches, but Lions and Rotary, council, etc. and ask and get input. Manninen added, they don't want the $200,000 to roll back into the Borough budget and not heard about again and have the assembly members later ask why the city did not provide input. Manninen asked if council wanted Barlow to make a presentation to them at a future meeting. Williams suggested council take a broad look at the item as the money was placed in the budget to do a study on the need for facilities, up to a day surgery. With the expanding senior citizen population, the city may want more to have more hospital - type care available in Kenai. Councilman Measles stated it needed to be investigated carefully as placing a hospital branch in Kenai could increase operation costs for everyone in the hospital area. The cost benefit analysis would have to be decided. There would be no benefit to having a day surgery in Kenai if it would increase costs at the hospital. The concept has been reviewed many times and no solution has been found. Measles added, he hated to see a lot of money spent on a study and would rather see the extra $200,000 put in the hospital and clinic in Soldotna. Councilman Bookey stated he would like to have the hospital administrator speak to council as he did not feel comfortable discussing the matter without further information. Williams requested Manninen to invite the hospital administrator to speak to council at a future meeting. b. Land Transfer - Manninen reported he had a meeting with the Borough in regard to the land transfer acquisition. They met and discussed reclassifying Borough lands for Water Well No. 3, a satellite fire station, and approximately 40 acres for cross- country ski trails. It is on schedule. The transfer is not complete as yet, but the Planning Director will be bringing it before the Borough Assembly within the next month or so. The land should be in hand by the time the work is begun on the final well. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 40 I-3. Attorney - Attorney Graves reported the next hearing on the McLane case was scheduled for January 24 at 9:00 a.m. Also the home page is underway and they hope to have it completed by the next council meeting. I-4. City Clerk - No report. I-5. Finance Director - Finance Director Sweeney reported he included in the packet reports on the ambulance billings and the quarterly investment report. I-6. Public Works Director a. Water Well No. 3 - Public Works Director Kornelis reported he submitted a new application to DEC for funds to develop the Thompson Park Water Well No. 3. The other two applications will decrease when the funds for the sewer interceptor lines for Thompson Park as the change over was approved in Anchorage and they are recommending Juneau approve the re -obligation of the funds. The amount will be approximately $600,000. b. Solarium - The substantial completion inspection was scheduled for January 22 and Pay Estimate No. 3 was included in the packet as Information Item No. 7. C. Dock Project - Kornelis reported the dock project was near completion except for the placement of the floats. They need to be widened. d. Information No. 9 - Kornelis referred to a Kenai Habitat Restoration Recreation Enhancement Project letter which was received. They had asked for a list of items to change the project which could increase the priority points they would be giving for the project. He made the necessary changes and sent them in as the deadline was prior to the council meeting. Bookey asked if the city met all the criteria with the changes made. Kornelis answered he made the changes they requested. e. Fuel Bid Opening - Kornelis reported the bid opening was scheduled for January 24. There were two separate bids: one for furnishing and deliver and the other furnishing and dispensing the fuel. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 41 f. Mission Street Project - Kornelis reported he has received word from the Russian Orthodox Church as to how they wanted the road improvement done around the church. Kornelis added, they are requesting a one-way road around the church. Vacation of easements will be needed for three properties to make that area public right-of-way. The design is in result of the public hearing held previously. Kornelis stated the sidewalk will start on the church side as there is one property owner who did not want to give up any property. The sidewalk will switch to the apartment side, going around overlooking the bluff. I-7. Airport Manager a. Enplanement Report - Acting Airport Manager Holland reported the enplanement report was included in the packet. b. Master Plan - An informal presentation will be made by Aries Consultants on 2/8, updating the commission, etc. of their progress. c. Annual Airport Certification - The annual certification inspection was held last week. There were no deficiencies noted. This year there may be a triangle drill (full disaster drill) on July 1. d. Sander - Holland also reported Airport Manager Ernst was in OshKosh inspecting the plow -truck -sander. ITEM J: DISCUSSION J-1. Citizens a. Kim Booth, Visitors Center - Booth noted Williams' earlier remark in regard to an $18,000 shortfall in the bed tax collection. Booth asked if it was due to the bankruptcy of one of the hotels or over -estimating the amount of what funds would be generated. Williams answered it was $18,000 less at the end of the quarter than what it was the previous year. Part, he believed, was attributed to the bankruptcy and part to non - collectibles. Bookey asked if there was any litigation started in regard to bed tax collection. Attorney Graves answered one was just filed (or read to be filed) on one entity. He believed it was for several thousand dollars. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 42 Williams reviewed the report and noted it was a combination of shortfall and bankruptcy. J-2. Council Bookey - a. Visitors Center - Bookey stated he was very concerned about the heating problem at the Visitors Center. The problem has been ongoing since the building was built. Bookey asked if they found out what the problem was. Kornelis stated he discussed the matter with the maintenance person. He believed a large part of the problem was due to gaps around the large garage door as there is no insulation there. He will be working on the door to stop that problem. Bookey stated he believed the problem was more than the garage door. He was concerned the temperature was approximately 500. There is in excess of $1 million worth of artifacts in the building and need a constant temperature. Bookey stated he was very disappointed with the heating of the building. He added, he did not think it fair the employees should sit in a building at 500. They should have gone home. The problem should have been addressed so time ago with the contractor. Kornelis stated he discussed the matter with Booth and they believe the problem could be worked out. b. Bookey reported he would be out of town and unable to attend the Visitors Center board meetings and requested a councilmember attend in his place. Also, he would be missing the next Harbor Commission meeting and requested another councilmember attend. Swarner - Reported she would be included in a teleconference call with AML in regard to economic development and land use resources. Swarner requested council to forward any comments they have to her for the teleconference. Swarner added she liked the Hope Health newsletter. Clerk Freas reported council requested purchase of the newsletter. It was suggested by Councilwoman Monfor. Measles - Councilman Measles noted that another discussion was brought forward in regard to the possible placement of a halfway house in Kenai. Measles suggested that since there is so much opposition to them, an ordinance be drafted to prohibit having halfway houses in the City of Kenai. Having such an ordinance would not preclude Wildwood or private industry outside KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 43 of the city to consider the placement in other areas. However, it would take the City of Kenai out of the hot seat every time an application is considered. Bookey asked if a blanket ordinance could be placed over the city. City Attorney Graves asked if, by saying halfway house, council was meaning a prison facility. Graves added, the city could get into trouble if it tried to restrict halfway houses for disabled people. Councilman Smalley suggested calling it a CRC. Bookey stated he agreed with Measles. Measles added, in most areas of the city a conditional use permit is required in order to operate one. They are already prohibited, except for the provision for a conditional use permit. Measles stated he would like to remove the conditional use permit loophole. Attorney Graves stated he would investigate what other communities have done and see if there have been challenges to similar attempts. He will report back for the next council meeting. Smalley - a. Parks & Recreation commission Meeting Minutes - Smalley referred to Page 3, Item C, regarding public access to the beach area. A comment made was to shut the road down. Bannock's remark was the concern of denying access to the private property owners along the beach. Smalley suggested the city not grade the road, etc. The city would not be denying access and everyone would have to walk to their property. A barricade placed may provide protection for their vehicles. Smalley suggested pursuing the State Fish & Game, who seems to want to have a fishery program at the mouth of the river, to give the city funding as their regulatory fishing industry is impacting city property adversely. Perhaps reimbursement should be requested for damages, etc. b. Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting - Smalley reported he would not be in town to attend the Commission meeting of 1/24 and requested another councilmember attend. C. Absences - Smalley apologized for not attending the holiday party or the breakfast with Senator Stevens. He was unable to attend due to illness and teaching responsibilities. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 17, 1996 PAGE 44 Williams - a. Beach Property - Suggested the city again investigate the purchase of the private property along the beach for the assessed value. Williams suggested the owners be written asked if they would be willing to sell the land to the city. Attorney Graves stated Administrative Assistant Howard wrote the property owners last summer and received no responses. Measles asked if a condemnation notice could be sent. Graves stated it would be an avenue and it was discussed earlier in the year in regard to using the property for a municipal park. Graves agreed that he believed the assessed value was minimal. b. Juneau Trip - Williams reminded council he would be leaving on Monday for Juneau. He would be taking letters to the Governor, etc. requesting funding for the water well, etc. ITEM R: The meeting adjourned at approximately 11:43 p.m. Minutes transcribed and submitted by: Carol L. Freas, City Clerk CITY OF KENA It J�"44" 210 FIDALGO AVE., SUITE 200 KENAI, ALASKA 99611-7794 TELEPHONE 907-283-7535 FAX 907-283-3014 i9vz TO: Mayor John Williams and Kenai City Council Mgmbers THROUGH: Thomas J. Manninen, Kenai Citv Manager1?M' FROM: Kayo McGillivray, Kenai Parks & Rec. Directortj) . DATE: February 23, 1996 SUBJECT: Leif Hansen Memorial Park Policy in 1995, Leif Hansen Memorial Park was used by numerous groups for a variety of activities. There were seven (7) weddings. Veteran's Memorial Service, Women's Resource Center Activities, the Kenai River Festival and !ndustrial Appreciation Day, National Doctors Association; and the P&R Beautification Committee Volunteers Appreciation. The number of people at each event ranged from around thirty (30) to over one -thousand (1000). Trying to determine which groups should or should not use the park is somewhat di�cult. All of the groups using the park were very complimentary of the park and policed the area after their event very well. After each of the above events one of the Parks & Recreations Staff checked the park for any damages and none were found. The two activities involving the largest number of people were the Kenai River Festival and the Industry Appreciation Day. Both of these events probably would be better facilitated at the softball greenstrip on Main Street Loop as the street would be blocked off, restrooms and shelter are available and the playground area is there for children. However, there is a potential problem there because of the 'large number of tournaments scheduled for the softball area. That entire area is heavily used during tournaments and there were eight tournaments held in 1995. That doesn:t leave many weekends free during the summer months. The policy of the Parks & Recreation [Department at this time will be to allow weddings, memorial services, and small group gatherings (20 to 100) to use the park upon receipt of a $50.00 deposit to cover possible damages. The deposit is returned if everything is satisfactory after the event. It is very possible that some larger groups may not be happy with this policy and will petition the council for a variance. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES December 20, 1995 Page 17 Swarner asked if the dues were the same amount as last year. Clerk Freas answered no, the amount was about double that of last year. Bookey reminded council that the cost was more because the Borough said they would prorate the cost and then didn't. A discussion followed about the phase -in of higher dues. Measles noted that the shortfall will only be in the Kenai Peninsula Borough. However, the shortfall is not as big as was initially thought. VOTE: There were no objections to the motion. SO ORDERED. H-6. Approval - Department of Health &'Social Services Agreement - City Hall. MOTION: Councilwoman Swarner MOVED for the city to enter into a new agreement with the Department of Health and Social Services for the period February 1, 1996 through January 31, 1997 at the current rate. Councilman Measles SECONDED the motion. Councilwoman Swarner requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT. Bookey asked if there have been any discussions in regard to the Health Department moving to the old courthouse building. Williams stated no and added, he believed the city should continue to urge and support a move of the Health Department to a more appropriate facility. VOTE: There were no objections to the motion. SO ORDERED. H-7. Discussion - Possible Amendments to the Polices and Procedures - Leif Hansen Memorial Park. Clerk Freas reviewed her memorandum which was included in the packet. The memorandum reminded council that a letter from Dennis and Susan Townsend was reviewed by them at their September 20, 1995 meeting. The Townsends had stated their concerns that the Leif Hansen Memorial Park had been used for large gatherings with bands, etc. and that type of use may be detracting from the peaceful memorial park for which it was developed. During that KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES December 20, 1995 Page 18 meeting, council directed the Townsend letter and a copy of the Policies and Procedures for the park be forwarded to the Beautification Committee for comments and then those comments be forwarded to the Parks & Recreation Commission for their review and comment. The comments from both the Committee and Commission were included in the memorandum. Those comments were as follows: Beautification Committee Comments: Recommend that the city continue to allow groups to use Leif Hansen Memorial Park but recommend that larger groups use other park facilities which are better able to accommodate them. In addition, tents and other items should be set up away from the memorial plaques, shrubs, etc. Parks & Recreation Commission Comments: Given the memorial intent of the park, the Commission recommends to council that events of less than 50 people be allowed to use the park, but that larger groups use the green strip area, with administration having the final say. Council reviewed the comments. Councilwoman Swarner questioned whether the park could continue to be used for weddings. Parks & Recreation Director McGillivray added that the Commission's comments were made with the understanding that weddings could still take place at the park, knowing that there could be more than 50 people in attendance. Councilman Measles suggested guidelines be written for park use with groups of over 50 people. The guidelines should state what type of event could take place there with over 50 people. Williams questioned whether events with small children in attendance is necessarily offensive. Measles stated he agreed that their presence may not be offensive, however he finds it very offensive when children are swinging on the trees, etc. and parents do nothing to stop it. Measles added, events that bring larger crowds should use the green strip area. Councilman Smalley stated he agreed with Measles and that larger events with entertainment, etc. should use the green strip area. There are restrooms available as well. Swarner suggested limiting the time of use of the park to one hour for large groups. Swarner added, during Veterans Day and KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES December 20, 1995 Page 19 Memorial Day services, the park is not used for more than one- half hour and many times, there are more than 50 people in attendance. Swarner added she did not disagree with Measles in regard to using the park for weddings, memorial services, memorial services, etc. If there is going to be entertainment or food, the event should be at the green strip. Councilman Bannock stated he would like to see a definition of activities that would be allowed, i.e. weddings, funeral, memorial services, etc. would be acceptable. Birthday parties, Kenai River festivals, etc. should not be there. Williams suggested no functions be held at the park at which food is a major part of the event. Events with food, etc., should use the green strip where electricity, barbecues, water and restrooms are available. Council requested Administration to develop guidelines be developed for use of the park. The guidelines should be brought back to council for final review. H-8. Discussion - National Flood Insurance. Councilman Smalley reported the concerns of the Planning & Zoning Commission's review of the flood insurance ordinance. Item 1.4 of the prevention ordinance includes much of the same concerns council had with the overlay ordinance. The ordinance could limit or restrict development. Another concern was what kind of cost factor would it have to the city. An estimate of cost to the city would be the time in drafting the ordinance, cost of advertisement of public hearings, and the policing of the ordinance. Smalley added that Item 1.4 was the major concern of the Commission. However, passage of the ordinance would allow for flood insurance to be purchased by property owners. Councilman Measles stated the same concerns were why the city did not go into the program in the 19801s. In the recent flood, it was found the Borough did not police their ordinances, building codes, and other requirements which they agreed to do when they began their participation in the flood insurance program. Williams stated his question was whether the city should join the flood insurance program based on the number of people that would be affected in the city in a historical perspective. Williams +1 Lief Hanson Memorial Park Policy - McGillivray reported that he was requested to put together a statement to submit to Council. Bannock stated that the Kenai River Festival Committee will be requesting use of the Memorial Park again this year. Castimore MOVED that since the City has already put in substantial funds to install public restrooms, upgrade playground equipment, and install a covered shelter at the softball greenstrip for public use, that these facilities should be used for large groups instead of bringing in porta potties at additional expense for large groups to use the Memorial Park. Sandahl SECONDED the motion. The motion passed with a unanimous vote. C. Kenai Habitat Restoration - McGillivray reported that he and Keith and Bob Frates met with a lady from State Parks. He stated that this work will all depend on whether the City gets the reqeusted grant money and this may not be determined until past time to get the work done this season. 7. NEW BUSINESS A. Rotary Club - Old Town Park - This item was discussed earlier in the meeting and was discussed earlier in the meeting. B. Bob Frates Certification - McGillivray stated that Bob Frates is now certified as a playground safety inspector. C. Alaska Greenhouse Conference - McGillivray reported that Bob Frates will be attending this conference this year. D. Computers for Teen Center - McGillivray reported that Shell Western donated several used computers to the teen center. They now have four up and running and are getting much use. 8. CORRESPONDENCE Student representative Fahnholz passed around the school events calendar to the Commission. Hultberg asked if she could get it to the city in time to go out in future meeting packets. She stated she would try. 9. INFORMATION A. Reappointment Letters - Bannock stated his should be coming out soon. B. Commission Roster - Wisniewski asked if McGillivray could find out how much property belongs with Beaver Creek Park. McGillivray stated that he believed there is 27 acres and thought he could come up with a map for the special meeting. �-Z CITY OF KENAI ' DRUG AND ALCOHOL - REASONABLE SUSPICION TESTING y' Policy Statement It is the policy of the City of Kenai to provide a drug and alcohol -free workplace. Substance abuse on City property will not be tolerated. Any employee who unlawfully manufactures, distributes, dispenses, possesses or uses a controlled substance in the workplace or during working hours is subject to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. In order to help prevent accidents and injuries resulting from the misuse of alcohol or controlled substances, the City has adopted the following policies: 1. Alcohol use.

If an employee believes that another employee may be operating a -couuuercial vehicle under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance, he must report it immediately to a Supervisor. For the purposes of this section, a "Supervisor" is considered a Foreman, other Supervisor, Department Head, Safety Coordinator, or the City Manager. The Supervisor will then inform the employee of the necessity of the test, give him/her a copy of the Alcohol and/or Controlled Substance Test Notification and Observable Behavior Reasonable Suspicion Record forms and escort the employee to the testing facility. The employee will not be allowed to operate any City vehicle or perform any safety -sensitive functions until negative test results are returned. The employee will be reassigned to non -sensitive functions while awaiting test results. Safety Sensitive Functions A safety -sensitive function is one which has the reasonable potential for causing serious harm to the individual or any other person or property, including other employees and the public, if due care is not exercised. Positive Alcohol Results A positive alcohol result is defined as greater than 0.02 breath alcohol content. Alcohol Results Above 0.02 If an employee has an alcohol level above 0.02 the employee cannot return to work until 24 hours have passed. Alcohol Results Above 0.04 In addition, if an employee has an alcohol level above 0.04, the employee cannot return to safety -sensitive functions until: • An evaluation is made by a certified alcohol dependency counselor. • All treatment recommended by the counselor is completed, including in or outpatient rehabilitation. • A return -to -duty test result is negative. During the next calendar year, the employee will be subject to a minimum of six random alcohol tests administered by the Safety Coordinator. If an employee has a positive test result during this time, they may be terminated unless the Supervisor can show extenuating circumstances, as determined by the City Manager. Positive Controlled Substance Tests If an employee tests positive for any controlled substances, he/she cannot return to work until: • An evaluation is made by a certified chemical dependency counselor. • All treatment recommended by the counselor is completed, including in or outpatient rehabilitation. • A return -to -duty controlled substances test is negative. During the next calendar year, the employee will be subject to a minimum of six random drug tests administered by the Safety Coordinator. If an employee has a positive test result during this time, he/she may be terminated unless the Supervisor can show extenuating circumstances, as determined by the City Manager. Violations of this policy It is the intent of the City to assist its employees with drug or alcohol problems. Therefore, a flexible approach may be necessary in handling violations of this policy. The measures taken in response to a particular violation will depend on a number of factors, including the nature of the violation, the risks to health and safety created by the violation, the employee's willingness to take steps toward rehabilitation, and the employee's length of service and employment record. All employees should be aware that any violation may result in termination of employment. A . a 3 Employees who violate this policy will be subject to discipline. Normally, a first offense will result in requirement that the employee successfully complete a course of rehabilitation if such a course is suggested by a certified chemical dependency counselor. An employee may be suspended during such rehabilitation depending on the facts of the case. During repeat testing, failure on the part of the employee to re -test or to pass a test will normally result in automatic dismissal. Annual Leave/Leave Without Pay The employee must first use annual leave time for any hours they would have been required to work while seeking evaluation, counseling, following recommendations of the counselor and waiting for return -to -duty test results. If the employee does not have leave time available, he/she may be placed on leave -without - pay status, subject to the approval of the Department Head and the City Manager. The employee handbook gives more information on leave -without -pay status. All other repercussions of leave without pay status will be enforced, including a maximum 180-day limit and extensions of anniversary dates. Alcohol and Controlled Substance Counseling The City of Kenai is committed to assisting employees who need to secure drug or alcohol counseling and rehabilitation. There are programs available in the community that offer these services. Employees may ask the City Finance Department for the names of these services. The City will not pay for evaluation, counseling or rehabilitation services, but the City health insurance policy may provide some benefits. Waiver of this Policy Under specific circumstances, a waiver of the policy may be necessary to perform essential job functions (e.g. undercover work by police officers). In such cases, a written waiver must be signed by the City Manager, the Police Chief, or one of their designees, prior to beginning the function.

As you are aware, the General Fund is obligated to compensate the airport the fair market value of the property. The fair market value is $5,300. I did not budget for this unanticipated purchase in the FY95-96 General Fund Land account. In the past, when the General Fund was obligated to pay the airport under similar circumstances, the City Manager directed the Finance Director to prepare an ordinance appropriating money to the Land Administration - Land account for payment to the Airport Land Sale Trust Fund. /kh C:\WPD0CS\SALES\SEN10R.MEM CITY OF KEN:_ „Od ajA 210 FIDALGO AVE., SUITE 200 KENAI, ALASKA 99611-7794 TELEPHONE 907-283-7535 _ FAX 907-283-3014 MEMORANDUM TO: THROUGH: Kenai City Council V Thomas J.

Please find enclosed a request from Mr. Louis B. Schilling requesting that the City of Kenai approve a partial release of its lien on Tract D, Sprucewood Glen Subdivision. 2. Mr. Schilling is proposing that the City of Kenai partially release its lien on-3 acres of Tract D, so that Tract D can be further subdivided and a portion of it sold. In particular, Mr. Schilling is requesting that the City of Kenai release its lien on the 3 acres, defer the normal required payment of $77,353.01 until April 15, and then accept a payment of $300,000 from the proceeds of the sale on that date. 3. From a financial perspective, I see three points the Council should weigh when considering whether or not to approve this request. These points are as follows: o The note and deed of trust should be amended in such a way as to ensure that we continue to receive our required annual payments of $77,353.01 in the future. In this way, we will be assured of receiving the full amount of principal owed us. o The interest rate on the note is 10%. It would in a pure financial sense, therefore, be in the best interest of the City to not amend the note as we do not have current reinvestment opportunities anywhere near 10%. From a community point of view, however, it may be in the City's best interest to have the property developed instead. Memorandum February 2, 1996 Page Two o After the payment of $300,000, the remaining balance of Mr. Schilling's note will be $202,806.37. The appraised value of the remaining land upon which the City will still have a lien (Tract E and a portion of Tract D) is $482,000; therefore, the City of Kenai will still have sufficient security for its note after the partial release. In addition, the value of the remaining land will increase after development of the portion to be released, due to the nature of the improvements planned. 4. Considering all of the facts, I see no reason not to recommend approval of Mr. Schilling's request. Louis B. Schilling City of Kenai Legal Department 210 Fidalgo Street Kenai, Alaska 99611 Attn: Carey Graves & Tom Manninen Dear Mr. Graves & Manninen: January 23, 1996 I am the Trustor on that certain Deed of Trust dated the 1 st day of August, 1984 and recorded in Book 243 at Page 35 on the 7th day of August, 1984. The legal description is: Tracts "D" and "E", Sprucewood Glen Subdivision, according to Plat No. 84-50, filed in the Kenai Recording District, Third Judicial District, State of Alaska. Containing 14.852 Acres mll The Deed of Trust does not contain any provision for a partial release. At this time I am in the process of subdividing Tract "D" , (See Enclosed Plat). I would like to request that the City of Kenai approve a partial release of approximately 3 acres under the following terms and conditions. Payment under NBA Escrow # 037-04439 in the amount of $77,353.01 due February 7, 1996 to be deferred to no later than April 15, 1996 as the Trustor has signed a Sale Agreement for a portion of Tract "D" with a closing date of April 15, 1996. 2. Trustor will sign escrow instructions for the sale of the above mentioned 3 acres of Tract "D" indicating that the proceeds of the sale $300,000.00 will be paid to the City of Kenai to apply to the original Deed of Trust. The original purchase price of Tracts "D" and "E" was $811,658.00 of which the principal balance has been reduced approximately 50%. The $300,000.00 payment proposed would further reduce the principal balance to less than 25% of the original.

We randomly contacted 10 senior housing complexes throughout the state to inquire about their smoking policy for senior apartments. The unanimous answer was that smoking was allowed only in the individual apartments. No smoking was allowed in any of the common areas. Currently there are no plans to implement a total ban on smoking in these complexes. As a matter of fact, however, and in all fairness to the issue, smoking does permeate under some apartment doors and does seep into the common areas. I have also attached a memo from the City Attorney regarding this subject.

Graves, City Attorney DATE: December 28, 1995 RE: Smoking in Vintage Pointe Manor You asked whether the City could prohibit smoking in individual apartments as well as in public area of Vintage Pointe Manor. There is no prohibition to banning smoking in individual apartments, provided such a clause were placed in the lease of each tenant. Whether that is or is not good policy is not a legal question. The easiest way to do this would be to phase in such a policy by placing a no smoking clause in new leases. The current smoking tenants would be in essence "grandfathered in." C:\WP60\DCCS\SRCENTER\SMOKING.MIEM January 22, 1996 Don Gilman Borough Mayor 144 N. Binkley Soldotna, AK 99669 Dear Mayor Gilman: CITY OF KENP It Gd capdal 4 44 210 FIDALGO AVE., SUITE 200 KENAI, ALASKA 99611-7794 TELEPHONE 907-283-7535 FAX 907-283-3014 F/ /j i W, i This letter is to express my serious concerns regarding some of the provisions contained in Ordinance 96-River Version B. My concern is focused primarily on three provisions of the proposed ordinance. 1. Variances: Paragraph A of Section Xx.xx.070 sets forth the standards for granting a variance. The last sentence of that paragraph reads, "Additionally a variance permit may not be granted unless the Planning Commission determines that the owner will be deprived of all reasonable use of the property without a variance being granted." The practical effect of requiring the owner to be deprived of all reasonable use of the property as a condition of getting a variance is that no variances will be granted. I can only assume that the language was specifically included in the paragraph to remove the possibility of variances being granted. Since commercial activity in the setback area is prohibited without a variance (Xx.xx.060) and, in effect, no variances can be granted (Xx.xx.070), this ordinance means that no new commercial activity will be allowed in the setback area. It does little good to offer the City of Kenai's Planning and Zoning Commission the opportunity to rule on variance requests when the ordinance is written in a manner which precludes them from issuing variances. 2. Prior Existing Uses: Section Xx.xx.080 Prior Existing Uses prohibits the expansion, alteration, or extension of any prior existing uses. This provision greatly limits the ability of the canneries located along the river to adapt their business operations to market, business, and technological changes in order to continue into the twenty-first century. Any business without the ability to change and adapt is doomed. The canneries located within the City are a pivotal part of the city's economy both in terms of jobs and tax base. Our great fear is that this ordinance will regulate a cornerstone of the City's January 22, 1996 Page 2 economy out of business. I was not elected Mayor to assist in regulating the canneries out of business. My understanding is that the intent of the Kenai River Working Group was not to unduly restrict the canneries' ability to compete and adapt, yet that is exactly what this ordinance will do. As such, it is totally unacceptable to the City of Kenai. The reason the representative of the City supported the recommendation of the Kenai River Working Group is that the group's proposal did not place such restrictions. We are also very concerned that enforcement of an ordinance with such severe restrictions placed upon prior existing uses and variances could constitute a "taking,' particularly as it relates to the canneries. This is especially relevant in Alaska where lost profits can be awarded in takings cases. 3. Misdemeanors: Section Xx.xx.100 makes it a misdemeanor to violate the ordinance. In Alaska the use of the term misdemeanor even without the possibility of jail time denotes criminal conduct and probably would mean the accused is entitled to a jury trial and court appointed lawyer if indigent —all at the expense of the borough or city. That dramatically increases the cost and difficulty of prosecution of violators. In summary, while the City is willing to keep the dialogue open regarding a river ordinance. Ordinance 96-River Version B (1/15/96) is simply not acceptable in its current form. For the above reasons, I request the Borough remove that portion of the City from the Ames Memorial Bridge to the mouth of the river from the proposed ordinance. I also request the penalty for violation of such an ordinance be changed from a misdemeanor to a violation. Additionally, the Kenai City Council would like an opportunity to review the final proposal before it goes to the assembly for consideration.

January 31, 1996 Beth Nelson, Records & Licensing Supervisor Alcoholic Beverage Control Board 550 West Seventh Avenue Anchorage, AK 99501-6698 RE: LIQUOR LICENSE PROTESTS City of Kenai CITY OF KENAI it Od 4 ,,Q&14"►► 210 FIDALGO AVE., SUITE 200 KENAI, ALASKA 99611-7794 TELEPHONE 907-283-7535 FAX 907-283-3014 1": ° -f 4.0FDD ) I 0 It was brought to my attention today, through a discussion regarding the continued operation protest amendment to AS O4.11.480, that the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (ABC) reconsidered their action of the 1995/96 license renewal for Alaska Construction Enterprises, Inc., d/b/a Kenai Merit Inn and reinstated their liquor license. During our conversation, I informed you the City of Kenai did not withdraw its protest of March 17, 1995 and that the City has litigation filed with the State of Alaska Court System in regard to obligations owed to the City. AS O4.11.480 stated at the time of our protest, (a) If a local governing body wishes to protest the issuance, renewal, transfer of location or transfer to another person of a license, it shall furnish the board and the applicant with a protest and the reasons for the protest within 30 days of receipt from the board of notice of filing of the application. The board shall consider a protest and testimony received at a hearing conducted under AS O4.11.510(b)(2) or (4) when it considers the application, and the protest and the record of the hearing conducted under AS O4.11.510(b)(2) or (4) shall be retained as part of the board's permanent record of its review of the application. If an application is protested, the board may not approve the application unless the board finds that the protest is arbitrary, capricious, and unreasonable. Beth Nelson, Records & Licensing Supervisor January 31, 1996 Page 2 AS O4.21.080(11) states in part, "local governing body" means, as appropriate, a city council, a borough assembly, or a traditional village council... Kenai Municipal Code 2.40.010 states, It is determined to be in the public interest that holders of or applicants for licenses issued by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board of the State of Alaska shall have all obligations to the City of Kenai on a satisfactory basis prior to the City Council approval of any activity of said license holder or applicant. Kenai Municipal Code 2.40.020 states, Prior to approving renewal of any liquor license by the City of Kenai, the Council shall enter findings in the minutes of the Council that the afore - described liquor licensees have satisfied all obligations to the City of Kenai or that the applicant has entered into a City approved payment plan with the Borough or City on any obligations owed to the City and said applicant is in compliance with said payment plan. After making such finding, the City Council may grant the approval requested. I would like to impress upon your office the following information: 1. The City of Kenai received the 1995-1996 liquor license renewal application for the Kenai Merit Inn on February 17, 1995. 2. On February 22, 1995, the City sent a certified letter to Alaska Construction Enterprises, Inc. informing them of obligations they owed to the City of Kenai for water and sewer fees, as well as hotel/motel taxes. 3. At their regular meeting of March 15, 1995, the Kenai City Council reviewed the application and noted the letter of objection entered by the Kenai Peninsula Borough, as well as obligations owed to the City for water and sewer and hotel/motel taxes. Council entered their objection for the renewal of the license at that meeting. Beth Nelson, Records & Licensing Supervisor January 31, 1996 Page 3 4. The City of Kenai entered their letter of objection to ABC on March 17, 1995. 5. The City of Kenai did not receive ANY notification from the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board informing us that the Board's initial denial for renewal of the license was reinstated -- until, by chance, today. It is my understanding, from our telephone conversation, that the Director of ABC and Board believes the protests of boroughs precede those of cities, and, in this case, because the Borough withdrew their protest, the City's protest was ignored. The Director's position is not supported by Title 4 of the Alaska Statutes. I have attached a letter I wrote in July, 1995 in regard to a similar reinstating of a liquor license for Kenai Joe's. Our concerns were the same then as they are now. We requested a written response, none was given. However, notes from a telephone response are written on the copy. The difference between these two issues is that we received notice from ABC that the license had been reinstated for Kenai Joe's and that the licensee had come current with his obligations to the City. We received neither in the Kenai Merit Inn case. The ABC Board has no legal authority to ignore a lawful protest by the City of Kenai pursuant to Title 4 of the Alaska Statutes. I am personally extremely dismayed. We filed a legitimate protest. There was no notification to us the Board planned to reinstate the license. Our protest was ignored. Again.

It has been learned that as each bird flaps its wings, it creates an uplift for the bird immediatley following. By flying in a formation, the whole flock adds at least 71 % greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own. BASIC TRUTH NO.1: People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier because they are traveling on the thrust of one another. Whenever a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go it alone and quickly gets back Into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird Immediately in front. BASIC TRUTH NO.2: If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation with those who are headed in the same way we are going. When the lead goose gets tired, he rotates back in the wing and another goose flies point. BASIC TRUTH NO.3: It pays to take turns doing hard jobs - with people or with geese flying south. The geese honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep up their speed. BASIC TRUTH NO.4: We need to be careful what we say when we honk from behind. Finally, when a goose gets sick or is wounded by gunshot and falls out, two geese fall out of formation and follow him down to help and protect him. They stay with him until he Is either able to fly or until he is dead, and then they launch out on their own or with another formation to catch up with their group. BASIC TRUTH NO. S: If we have the sense of a goose, we will stand by each other.

We have already sent you a set of drawings and construction documents. The City Council has introduced Ordinance No. 1673-96 (attached) which will appropriate the remaining funds to complete this project. The ordinance will be approved by council at their next meeting of February 7, 1996. Since we already have some funds appropriated we will start ordering some equipment (under $2,500). Ordering equipment over $2,500 needs council approval so those purchases will be presented to council February 7, 1996 also. We have talked to Peninsula Plumbing and Jahrig Electric about helping as subcontractors on this project. We hope to have this project completed by the April 2, 1996 deadline.

I am writing this letter to explain the necessity of sole sourcing the StratmroI Model 900 ORP system. M s system was selected for two reasons; 1) to provide a mmnmrmg and control. system that will preeiseiy reguide the amount of chemicals (hypocblat. min bisnifite) used in the pants disinfection process and 2) to save on chemical usage comas a result of the precision monitoring this system is capable o£ Chemical savings using the Stramt of system over convectional residual caumoi systems are significant In Port Angeies Washmp m,- the opeatom claimed that the Straatr A wits reduced eoasrmp . of their hypochriorim and bisuifite use by about SO percent. These savings ate significant considaiag chemical use for Kwat has bees at about $ 0,000 per year. It is necessary to explain some of the basic concepts of the ORP (oxidation reduction potential) system to umdestand why it is unique: WhU residusi-ba nd control of disiafecaon has been the standard method of chlorine control in, wastewatertremmect for years, the uWu wy has become inoa ngiy aware that water disinfection is betty managed by messtning chlorine demand as wail as free chlorine residual. Chorine in aqueous solution generates an eiauromorive forcc, measurable in millivolts TU strength of this force is dhu: iy proportional to the oxidative strength of the chlorine (hypochlouite) solution. The higher the of chlorine, the higher the voltage. Conversely, the higba the of reduct ms. the lower the voltage. Therefore. the ORP of a chlorinated system at any given time is a met of the current chlorine demand of the system. Chlorine demand is primarily a fraction of residual, load. pH. flow and temperature. Residual testing determines or measures only one of these variables. Bec mm ORP is basically the cumulative effect of all five. ORP can be used to precisely determine the required dosage to meet deu=d at all times. While there are other companies currently tnaaufarattring ORP controllers, tiu= other systems have significant limitations for wastewater chlorination / dechlonnanon processes and are typically used in other mdusmal processes. The main limitation of these od= systems is that it is necessary to compensate for the time of these chemical reactions This is accomplished through an algorithm input into a microprocessor within the Stranu I unit. No other systems currently on the market have this capability. Them are also significant differences on the design of the monitoring probes that make the Straaaol system unique. A majority of the major cities in the State of Washington have sole -sourced the Strantroi system for their wastewater trcaunent plants. I hope this letter answers your questions.

January 9, 190 SUBJECT: STP Disinfection Modification FOR: Council meeting of 1/17/96 Vasey Engineering has completed the design work for converting the disinfection method at our Sewer Treatment Plant (STP) from gas to liquid using sodium hypochlorite and sodium bisuifite. The final cost estimate (which is attached) for equipment and contractor work totals $56,622 This is about $20,000 higher than we estimated. The reason it Is higher is because we want to install an oxidation reduction potential, ORP, system. This system could pay for itself in less than one (1) year by properly monitoring and controlling the chemicals being added. Please see Vasey Engineering's attached fetter dated January 4, 1996. Some funds can be transferred from our O&M budget in STP because we will no longer be using gas disinfection. I suggest we use a total construction cost of $60,000 and make the following transfers in the STP budget: y-►c V*0e A44Mo-1 CA At fart (ar /goo lEA ) From: R&M Supplies $ 3,000 s�.cvcc Mirr� (see*) R&M 91000 6 XAOVs ` l r • Contingency 12,000 v GE,uE,t'ad- V-w-grew oea*•.vr To: STP Modification Construction $24,000 With: An existing STP Modification Budget $36,000 Total Construction $60,000 Bilhc.�we /t. .wQaap• (S '00) Please keep in mind that our plant operators are going to act as the general contractor to order, set up, and install much of this equipment plus subcontract plumbing and electrical.

The project's interdisciplinary Team (IDT) has evaluated the City of Kenai's restoration proposals and assigned a preliminary score to each based on the information that you provided. The team also recommended design changes that will increase each proposal's restoration benefits, facilitate permitting and enhance overall cost-effectiveness. The City of Kenai is under no obligation to accept these recommendations, either in total or in part. If you wish to retain your original proposals their scores will remain unchanged. However, if any of the recommended changes are incorporated, we would like to have the revised proposals with refined cost estimates re -submitted by January 18, 1996. The revised proposals will then be re-evaluated and re -scored to produce a final ranked list of projects. In addition, to assist us in our analysis, we request that you specify the time it will take to construct each project and the management actions that will be applied to prevent natural and human -related damages once a project is completed. The recommended changes for each proposal are as follows: Kenai Dunes 1. Increase design effectiveness by keeping people off the dunes and restricting use to access stairs and boardwalks. This might be accomplished by fencing portions of the dunes. Mr. Keith Korneiis -2- January 9, 1996 2. Prevent vehicular access on protected parts of the beach. Cunningham Park - 1. Reduce/redesign boardwalk -- possibly in T-shape configuration. 2. Add fence on downstream side of the project to prevent trespass impacts on private property. Fence unprotected areas to discourage additional bank damage. 3. Install movable boardwalk to address erosion and icing problems. 4. Consider handrails. 5: Provide better information on boatramp work. 6. Add habitat restoration component if possible. If you have any questions, please give me a call at 267-2277. Sincerely, Mark N.

Thousands of 'dip netters" come from all over the state to take advantage of this very productive method of obtaining salmon. The Kenai Beach Road and Spruce Street are packed with vehicles. Thousands of people are now trampling the environmentally sensitive dunes and its vegetation. This project is to: (1) provide boardwalks for access from the road through the dunes and to the beach for fishing; (2) provide educational signs and interpretive displays at various locations; (3) provide an elevated stair, walkway, and deck for access from the River View Parking Area at the end of Forest Drive to the Kenai Beach. Common Name: Kenai Beach Dunes - River Mile: 0 - Kenai River Mouth Township Range Section: T5N R 11 W Managing Agency: City of Kenai Boardwalks, Signage, Stairway Section 6 Site Characteristics: Presently trampled dunes with trails and no signing. No stairway from the Kenai River View Area at the end of Forest Drive resulting in eroded trail which is steep and unsafe. Nature Extent of Damage: Fishermen are destroying valuable dunes and vegetation. This makes it much easier for wind and water erosion thus causing environmental plant and animal damage. Need for Enhancement: Without this project the dunes and access trails will continue to cause damage. Eventually the road and adjacent wetlands will be in danger of destruction. Restoration Endpoints: Provide information about dunes and vegetation, its importance, and how to protect it along with history and requirements for area use. Provide authorized trails and access points helping to prevent erosion. Method: Possibly aluminum driven posts with custom fabricated aluminum grating for walkways, boardwalks, stairs, and landings. Waterproof signs. Provide structural sound facilities that are safe and convenient for users plus vandal proof. Project Size: Estimate - 4 boardwalks, stairways, decks, and 8 signs. Duration: Project would allow continued use of the area. Protection Measures: Guardrails, barriers, and signage would direct users to boardwalks, stairways, decks, and walkways. PROJECT NOMINATION FORM Kenai Habitat Restoration & Recreation Enhancement Estimated Cost: $140,000 Monitoring Method: Dunes and its vegetation would be monitored to see how fast it can recover. The eroded areas that would be repaired around and under the boardwalks, stairs and decks would be monitored. The heavy public use would be monitored to see the best methods of restoration. Post Project Management: The popularity of this area is dramatically increasing. This grant to the City of Kenai would greatly help in managing the area. Additional Notes: 1. To keep people off the dunes, the City of Kenai will place fencing, signage, log barriers, and guardrails to direct access to the beach by way of the boardwalks and stairs. 2. The City of Kenai will block vehicle access to protected parts of the beach which is southeast of South Spruce Street. Proper signage will also be used. C:\WPDOCS\GRANTS\DUMES.FRM .. . � .

Z/71f 4- GV r. .r••� K After your visit today and conversations with Councilman Bookey, City Engineer Keith Kornelis and City maintenance Steven Ramburg, I felt having some basic information about the heating situation at the Visitor Center would help. Steven has always been very quick to help us with any maintenance or heating problems. He is very efficient at fixing what ever the problem may be and follows through if needed. It seems that when the temperature falls below 0 degrees outside we experience cooler than normal working conditions (55-65 degrees). Each of the staff members at the Visitor Center now have space heaters in their work area. As this temperature may not seem too cold it is. The two things that we can not control are: • The floor heating. It takes (3) three days for the temperature to adjust when we have below 0 degree weather. • The 12 foot garage door in the preparation room is not sealed around the edges. There is daylight visible around the entire door. The heating situation is certainly a concern of mine, however, wool sweaters and gloves have gotten us through to this point. Cordially, IM Both, Executive Director P. O. Box 1991, Kenai, Alaska 99611 9 (907) 283-1991 MEMORANDUM TO: Keith Kornelis, Public Works Director FROM: Robert C. Springer, Building Official RCS DATE: February 1, 1996 SUBJECT: Recent Heating Problems at the Visitors Center Building Maintenance has taken the following steps to solve the heating problems at the Visitors Center. We hired Johnson Controls, from Anchorage, to track down the problem with the heating system. They discovered a bad temperature sensing switch that would not allow hot enough water to enter the floor heating. This caused the slow reaction time in raising the temperature of the building. Additionally, they discovered a clogged strainer in the piping, caused by glycol in the system. This caused a low flow of fluid through the air handling coil which allowed a lower air temperature to be distributed inside the building. We hired Sterchi Construction to erect a temporary insulated wall to cover the 12' garage door. Garage doors are notorious for allowing air infiltration, that should stop with this alteration. Building Maintenance is not in every building, every day. We rely on the occupants to tell us of any possible problems associated with their building. In this case we were not notified of a problem until Mr. Bookey notified the City Manager. Building Maintenance responded as soon as we were notified. The design of the heating system in this building should not be singled out as defective. For the most part, the heating system has operated flawlessly since the building was constructed. We have had minor part failures which have created heating problems but no more than any other city building. RS/kw C:\WPDOCS\DEPT\BLDOFF\VISITORS.MEM i TONY KN.+..r� .. Lk L DEPARTMENT OF FISHAND GAME f. P.O. BOX OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER JUNEAU, Ab v f' PHONE. (907 January 25, 1996 The Honorable John J. Williams City of Kenai, Mayor 210 Fidalgo Avenue, Suite 200 Kenai, AK 99611-7794 Dear Mayor Williams: 2q3�� 23st F£$ 7996 N Cj % n �kK cN�^r Thank you for your January 2 letter regarding funding for erosion control on private properties in the Angler Acres Subdivision. Unfortunately, the erosion control project proposed by the Beaver Creek Bank Restoration and Protection Group does not meet the statutory requirements for funding under any of the funds administered by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. The state and federal legislation which appropriated these funds requires that they only be used for salmon habitat protection and restoration. The problem at Beaver Creek is that Angler Acres Subdivision was platted on a rapidly eroding bend in the Kenai River. This bank erodes naturally at a rate of four to five feet annually, and up to twenty feet in major flood events such as the recent flood in 1995. This rapid rate of erosion has continuously threatened houses and structures that were constructed near the river. Although erosion is a problem for people who build in these areas, it is a natural process that is essential for the health and stability of the Kenai River. Erosion replenishes spawning gravels and provides large organic debris and benthic substrate for food organisms which are important elements of fish habitat in the Kenai River. In an undisturbed river system, portions of the banks are always eroding or aggrading. Erosion only becomes a problem when naturally stable, vegetated banks begin eroding, which usually occurs because of poor land use practices. The Angler Acres property owners have proposed to construct structures to control erosion at Beaver Creek. Most erosion control structures such as bulkheads, sheetpile, and gabion blankets are harmful to fish habitat because they accelerate water velocities, do not provide any cover, and halt the flow of gravel downstream. These types of structures are also likely to move the erosion problem to other property upstream or downstream. The department cannot authorize structures in the Kenai River that would destroy fish habitat or use fish habitat protection and restoration funds to pay for them. We have worked with several Angler Acres property owners to come up with a bank stabilization design that we can approve. This design will retard the rate of erosion and will avoid many of the worst effects of traditional erosion. control structures. However, it will not likely halt all erosion or protect against catastrophic flood events. Therefore, we have also recommended that they move their buildings as far back from the river as possible. The department has also recommended that FEMA and the Kenai Peninsula Borough consider using the mitigation portion of the 1995 FEMA Flood 11-K2LH Mayor John J. Williams 2 January 25, 1996 Grant to buy out the Angler Acres property owners so they can move their buildings and businesses to less hazardous sites on the river. I appreciate the opportunity to clarify the purpose of Kenai River fish habitat protection and restoration funding. If you have any additional questions, please call me or Lance Trasky at 267-2342.
