OF KENAi Thank you for scheduling Peninsula Sanitation on the Kenai City Council meeting for May 7, 1997. We plan to present to the city council members a proposal that includes a service agreement which will reduce the cost for your sanitation service over the next five years. As you may know, if you have seen our trucks around town or personally have had the good fortune of being a Peninsula Sanitation customer, our equipment is maintained in an excellent manner and our dependable service is provided with a guarantee of satisfaction. We are proud of our most recent survey that reflected a 90%+ satisfaction level. Our future plans are to maintain this level of service, in addition to increasing the options that the residents and businesses have for their waste stream. If you choose to sign up on our service agreement the City of Kenai will save a total of $1,906.00 over the next five years. These savings will be credited to your bill each year. Our service agreement will mutually join Peninsula Sanitation and the City of Kenai for the term. We realize your refuse service needs may fluctuate so this agreement does not preclude changes to your level of service. This service agreement will save you money. It will also help to ensure that the City of Kenai has a trash company with excellent service, safe equipment and on -going programs of modern trash processing. It will also provide for the continued assurances of trash container availability and that the containers are maintained in a manner consistent with the public image the City of Kenai would like to preserve. Peninsula Sanitation is currently developing a Curbside Recycling Program. At the May 7th City council meeting we would also like to take this time to present this option to the council members. Thank you for your interest in this proposal. Sincerely, Sky Carver Peninsula Sanitation P.O.

APPROVAL OF AGENDA The agenda was approved by unanimous consent. 3. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Terry Bookey asked that on page four of the minutes, it be clarified that two pool tables were donated and two were sold at a significant reduction in the cost. The minutes were approved as amended by unanimous consent. 4. PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD Batting Cage Proposal - Don Wright was introduced and stated he would like to set up and operate two batting cages as a business. He proposed locating them on the softball fields on city property. He stated that they would be a pipe flame structure, 32 x 80 x 14, and similar to a greenhouse in design. He stated that plywood siding would be used to eight feet and that it would be painted a dark green to compliment the existing structures. He stated two layers of plastic sheeting would go over it. He stated he would also have a concession stand that would sell soda and snack items and would provide a couple of picnic tables. He stated he would handle garbage disposal and would upkeep around the fields. He stated there would be a protective screen around the pitcher. His proposed cost would be $2.50 for 5 minutes and estimated about 6 pitches a minute. He stated 10 minutes would run about $5 and an hour Parks & Rec Commission April 3, 1997 Page 1 would cost about $20. He stated that if team arrangements were made they could get up to a 50% discount. He also stated that a cage would be set up with a different pitch for softball practice. Commissioner Sandahl asked if this came up before at a previous meeting. Don Wright stated that he was unable to get the information to Bob Frates in time for the last meeting. Commissioner Sandahl asked to have the proposal checked over with the City Attorney and was concerned about liability issues. Terry Bookey stated that Bob Frates was going to get together with the City Attorney on it. Commissioner Sandahl was also concerned about a for -profit business operating on city property. Wright stated he originally considered renting commercial building space but did not want to commit to a year long lease. He stated that the building would be designed to be heated and could be removed. Commissioner Sandahl did not want to make a motion to approve until he heard the response from the City Attorney. Wright stated he would like to have it open 12 hours a day, seven days a week with up to six employees. Commissioner Sandahl stated there were a number of questions that need to be addressed. Commissioner Hultberg stated that if these issues were addressed and approved by the Commission, then it would have to go to Council. He stated that Council may also have concerns that would need to be addressed. Commissioner Sandahl stated that the City Attorney may have questions of his own that may need to be addressed. Commissioner Wisniewski asked if there were other commercial interests located on city property. Terry Bookey stated that the aerobics instructor at the Rec. Center was put out to bid but there was no response on the bid. Commissioner Hultberg stated that even if the Commission agreed, that Council may still have questions. Lions Club Park Proposal - Phil Nash stated that the Lions Club is getting ready to spend some of their Rubber Duckie money. He stated that there are no handicap -accessible parks in Parks & Rec Commission April 3, 1997 Page 2 the city. He suggested a handicap -accessible type park and they initially had suggested a park on the back side of the Oilers Field. After more research they were concerned about wild golf balls from the nearest tee on the golf course and wild balls from the baseball games. They decided that maybe this would not be the best area to put in a handicap -accessible park. He stated that they then looked at the Bernie Huss trail and the dustbowl area and then looked at Municipal Park overlooking the sewage treatment plant in the area between the lookout and the parking area. He stated that the Lions Club proposes to build a handicap - accessible area from the observation area to the parking lot. He stated the Lions Club will provide benches and the manpower. Phil Nash suggested that the fast year they put in the first loop and picnic area, and the rest to be done in stages each year. He stated this could be worked into a trail system that would eventually all be tied together. He stated they would work with Parks and Rec and the City people to design the trails without breaking up the natural windbreak. He also proposed putting in rails for the blind to use. He stated that they would consider putting in chokecherries to replace some of the trees that will need to be removed. To assist in cutting down on vandalism in the area he proposed that the Lions Club could bring local kids into the project. He felt this would make them feel it was more their own and they would help police themselves. Commissioner Sandahl asked if the existing park could be incorporated into the plans or if the handicapable park should be segregated. Phil Nash stated that the treed areas make many of the handicapped women fearful and felt the trees in the proposed area are small enough and it is open enough that there is a screen without the feeling of being surrounded. He stated that the proposed area is also accessible to cars without the competition of the car traffic. Commissioner Hultberg felt there should be some thinning done near the volleyball area. He stated that there is a lot of beetle kill and brush that needs to come out. Commissioner Sandahl stated that he thought there could be handicap accessible trails in front of the park also. He felt that the whole thing should be handicap accessible. Commissioner Hultberg felt it was a good plan. Terry Bookey stated that Bob Frates was planning on taking out the beetle kill. Phil Nash was also concerned that it could be a fire hazard if not dealt with. He suggested flagging areas where the trails would be and proposed having volunteers cut out the areas and laying typon down and cover the trail over that to elevate them and prevent any boggy areas. Parks & Rec Commission April 3, 1997 Page 3 MOTION: Commissioner Castimore MOVED to approve the Lions Club proposal to put in a handicap accessible area in Municipal Park. Commissioner Wisniewski SECONDED the motion. ROLL VOTE: Wisniewski - Yes Fields - Yes Yamamoto - Absent Hultberg - Yes Sandahl - Yes Castimore - Yes Gifford - Absent The motion passed with a unanimous vote. Commissioner Wisniewski asked if it was mandated for ADA compliance to upgrade as handicap accessible whenever work is done. Terry Bookey stated it was possible, that he would check it out with Bob Frates. Lions Club Cemetery Proposal - Terry Bookey stated that there has been lots of interest in working at the cemetery since the newspaper article was done. He stated that there have been offers from the Lions Club to help organize the initial cleanup at the cemetery. Phil Nash stated they will work on May 14 and 15 to do the initial cleanup and will coordinate the efforts offered by other volunteer organizations. Commissioner Sandahl felt very good about the response. Commissioner Hultberg stated that there is a lady out east who is a cemetery guru and is very excited about working in the cemetery. Commissioner Sandahl asked if there was any church interest. Commissioner Hultberg stated that had been addressed at the last meeting. Phil Nash stated that there is an individual in the Lions Club who is going to contact the churches also. 5. OLD BUSINESS Needs Assessment - Terry Bookey stated that Bob Frates asked the Commission to look over the proposed survey and prioritize the questions. Commissioner Hultberg was concerned that there were going to be too many questions if there were ten per subject and three subjects. Terry Bookey responded that Bob Frates wanted them to get them down to a workable number. Parks & Rec Commission April 3, 1997 Page 4 Commissioner Hultberg suggested time to look them over. Terry Bookey stated he thought Frates wanted them to look at the questions and determine if they are important and how they should be ordered. Commissioner Castimore felt the survey should be designed for short, brief answers. The Commission's suggestions were as follows: Parks: Question 1 - Reformat and list by priority of use. Question 2 - Should be part of Question #1. Questions 3 and 4 - were basically the same question. Eliminate #3. Questions 5 and 6 - Leave in. Question 7 - Leave in but tie it to #1.

Mahurin asked if they are to assume the N's are ordinance mandated. Graves stated there are some that are not ordinance mandated. Graves stated for example, in the conservation zones. Bryson suggested separating the residential dwellings at 2/3 family dwelling and then 4 family dwellings. Christian asked if Bryson was suggesting a separate line for three and four family dwelling? Bryson stated yes and Christian commented that he agreed. Bryson stated that would make the table split where the ordinance does. Agreement to split at 2/3 family dwellings and then another category at 4 family dwellings. Glick asked how the group would like to proceed with the review. Mahurin stated it is easier for her to deal with one zone before proceeding to another. Bryson asked the group to keep in mind that if a use was potentially considered a CUP and they make it not permitted (N) that it could be viewed as a taking. Bryson stated he would defer to the attorney on this subject. Graves stated it could be argued as a regulatory taking. Graves stated that in the past to be viewed as a regulatory taking, you must take all economic use of the property. Graves added there are attempts in the legislator now to lessen that standard so any restriction on a property would have to be compensated. Graves advised that when the administration first reviewed the table, they were going to put N's where it showed no use. Graves noted the only other N's added were gas manufacturing and storage noting it is Planning and Zoning Commission Page 2 Land Use Table Work Session Minutes April 1 1, 1997 obvious you don't want a liquid gas plant in a residential zone. Graves commented that the administration had been very restrictive about placing N's on the idea that it is the Commission's job to weigh whether a particular conditional use is appropriate in a particular instance. Graves noted this was the administration's philosophy when going through the table. Mahurin asked if it is a correct premise if there is a C, in essence P&Z should approve the use unless there is evidence or public outcry to the contrary. Graves stated not in every case. Graves added he feels it perfectly appropriate for instance, if no one shows up for a hearing, if the Commission feels it is not appropriate, it is within the Commission's authority to deny based on the record. Graves noted this is even if the neighbors are not in opposition. Christian commented that at the same time if it is turned down and they appeal it becomes a political decision. Graves noted the council, when hearing appeals, is not acting as political body. They are a quasi- judicial body. Christian commented that political moods can affect decisions. Christian noted he would like to see not too many C's based on the intent of zone. Christian added that a person who doesn't agree with an N can appeal. Graves clarified that an N doesn't allow for an appeal. Graves stated if they decide on the N, there is nothing to apply for and nothing to appeal. Graves noted they would have to change the zone which would require a code change. Graves noted that is why administration put few N's because it eliminates any possibility of allowing the use. Christian questioned if a variance wouldn't allow for the use. Graves advised that variances are not a land use table mechanism instead it is more for land development issues such as side yard setbacks, etc. La Shot commented that the C designation leaves the power with the Commission. La Shot noted that more N's make administrations job easier but that it is probably not appropriate. Glick noted that council will have to approve the revision and may look and decide they don't like all N's. La Shot noted the way the table is presented it gives some latitude where there is a use that could be compatible. Christian noted then that technically before they added the N's there has always been a chance for the use but placing an N does not allow for the use. Graves clarified that is the correct assumption. Glick asked how would the Commission like to proceed. Mahurin recommended taking each zone in total before proceeding to the next. CONSERVATION ZONE: Planning and Zoning Commission Page 3 Land Use Table Work Session Minutes April 11, 1997 Discussion on whether or not any development should be allowed in the Conservation zone. Mahurin stated it was her opinion that the conservation zone was for preservation and she didn't feel any housing development was appropriate for the zone. Christian concurred. Bryson stated that there are areas with that zone designation that are private property. Bryson asked if the Commission was prepared to not allow development on private property. Graves stated he felt that if they planed N's all the way down the column that it would be a taking. Graves further explained the takings law again. Christian asked if the land could be rezoned. Graves stated they could do that but if the rezone was denied, then they would have a case. Christian commented he felt at this point the option to rezone would still be available to them. La Shot stated there are several areas where the conservation zone does include private property. Nord stated she believed it would be a taking. Mahurin asked what the concept of conservation is? La Shot stated he has found the boundaries of the zone to be somewhat arbitrary. La Shot stated if he knew the boundaries were clear cut from uplands to wetlands, he wouldn't have a problem. Christian commented that a person looking at the table and seeing all the C's would view the restrictions light on conservation. Christian added that they may think that, "sure it's conservation but you can do anything except commercial businesses with Commission approval." Bryson stated that perhaps the Conservation zone should be government land only. Bryson noted that the original zoning map was painted and didn't follow property lines and nominally followed topography. Christian suggested a C for private property and N for public. Graves stated he felt that would be appropriate. Commission decided that all the C's under conservation for Residential section be noted with a footnote stating conditional use only allowed on private property. No other changes on first page of draft. On page 2, Conservation, agreement that Churches be denoted as "C." On page 2, Conservation, agreement that Crematories, Lodges/Fraternal Organizations, Nursing/Convalescent/or Rest Homes, Private Clubs, Social Halls, and Union Halls be denoted as "N." No other changes noted. Note to Legal: Correct "exists" to "exits" on Footnote 12, Page 14-69. Planning and Zoning Commission Page 4 Land Use Table Work Session Minutes April 11, 1997 RURAL RESIDENTIAL ZONE: Discussion on multi -family dwellings and compatibility with Land Development Table. Decision to change Rural Residential Zone 5/6 Family Dwelling and 7 or more Family Dwelling to "N" to reflect Land Development Table requirements. LAND USE/DEVELOPMENT TABLE DISCUSSION: Christian commented that the RR 1 zone is supposed to be more restrictive than the RR zone. Christian stated the implication is that they don't want four family dwellings or more in the zone. Nord agreed. Christian stated he felt the intent was to keep the large size dwellings out of that zone. Nord stated that she felt with the minimum square footage in the development table that it should at least be conditional. Bryson commented that he felt that as you get into the larger lot sizes that five, six, and seven family dwellings become less objectionable as far as impact unless you just don't want them in the RR zone. Christian that since the RS and RR zones are larger lots they are suited for larger size buildings. Christian added that the RR 1 and RS 1 and RS2 are smaller lots. Nord noted that the RS 1 are larger lots. Christian noted that is correct but that it was supposed to be a more restrictive zone and not as congested. Christian stated he felt the blanks were in the Land Use Table because they hadn't wanted something there. Nord noted that when she completes a contract if she doesn't want something, she runs a line through it. Nord drew attention to the Land Development Table and the lines that are in it. Group discussion on how the Land Use Table and Development Table had developed over time and opinions as to how it was interpreted at various times. Bryson noted that RS1, RS2, and RR1 didn't exist at one time. Bryson added that there was a difference between RR and RS. Discussion on the Development Requirements Table. Graves asked La Shot what he would tell someone who requested a CUP for the RR zone (how many square feet)? La Shot noted they would need 40,000 square feet minimum unless they had city water or sewer according to the table. Graves noted the table being blank for five family dwellings in the RR zone. Kebschull drew attention to Footnote C3 . La Shot stated it would require the number of dwelling units times the 7,200 square feet required in the RS Planning and Zoning Commission Page 5 Land Use Table Work Session Minutes April 11, 1997 zone. Mahurin noted she felt that they all agreed that the requirements of the Land Development Table should be reflected in the Land Use Table. Christian commented that he wondered if they would need to allow for separate two and three family dwelling categories when they look at the other zones. Bryson stated that the development criteria is noted in the Land Development Table. Christian questioned the table noting it does not specifically list one, two, or three family dwellings. Bryson commented he didn't feel they should start changing the table other than what is interpreted as the original intent. Agreement from the other Commission members. Commission returned to review of the RR residential section. Glick asked if they needed to change the designation for four family dwelling. Bryson noted that the four family dwelling required 40,000 sq. ft. without water and sewer. Glick stated then it would be the five, six, and seven that would need changed. Kebschull asked if Footnote C3 took care of the requirements for development. Glick stated he thought it may cover it. Discussion again that this would require the number of dwellings times 7200 sq. ft. Graves noted this would be less than would be required for a four plex. La Shot asked Graves if he would interpret it as five times the 7200 or if you would go down to the five family dwelling in the table for the RS zone which requires only 10,000 sq. ft. Review and discussion of the Land Use Development table. Graves stated he would interpret it as the five times the 7200 sq. ft. Kebschull noted they could change the footnote to reflect whatever they wanted. Christian commented that it seems appropriate that 40,000 without water or sewer is appropriate in RR, but 9,600 for RS without water and sewer does not seem appropriate. Christian stated he felt that needed to be changed. Christian stated if they changed the Land Development Requirements Table to something more appropriate, then the footnote may fit. La Shot stated that perhaps the footnote needs to be clarified. Christian noted they would probably need a footnote to clarify if it was with or without sewer and water. Kebschull noted they could have two development requirements, one with water and sewer and one without. Glick asked if that would be agreeable with everyone. Glick clarified that Kebschull was recommending an additional footnote. Kebschull commented they could have one listing the requirements for water and sewer and one with square footage requirements without water and sewer. Kebschull noted that Footnote C3 also requires that water and sewer facilities meet all health regulations. Kebschull asked what DEC would require? Discussion on what may be required. Bryson stated he felt that the physical area requirements would not be that much different for the sewer system. Bryson added the same buffer would be required for the well. Bryson noted they could probably satisfy the requirements with 40,000 sq. ft. Kebschull offered the Planning and Zoning Commission Page 6 Land Use Table Work Session Minutes April 11, 1997 suggestion that they could make it conditional where water and sewer is allowed and not allowed where water and sewer not available. Graves noted that water and sewer is required within 200 feet of all mains. Graves asked if there is any place in TSH zone that is not on water and sewer. La Shot stated he thought perhaps in the back behind the church. Christian suggested they have the Land Use Table reflect N's for now and it could be reviewed later. Mahurin stated she agreed that the Table should reflect the Land Use Development requirements. Note, at this point, decided to place the N designation in 516 and 7 or more family dwelling categories for the RR zone. Bryson asked for clarification if they were going to make changes on the Land Development Requirements Table. Agreement that they would not make changes at this time. RURAL RESIDENTIAL 1: Decision to place an "N" in the 4, 516, and 7 Family Dwelling sections. Christian commented that if they didn't want four, five, six, or seven family dwellings why would they want a townhouse. Mahurin read a portion of the code relating to townhouses. Graves noted that Section 160 is a separate ordinance for townhouses. Christian questioned how they could allow a townhouse when don't allow a four plex in the RR1 zone. Kebschull commented that townhouses are privately owned which may make a difference. Graves noted the code stated that total lot coverage should not cover more than 30 percent of the lot in the RR and RS zones and 40 percent in the RU zone. Bryson asked what the code would require for the remaining zones. Bryson commented it may have been written before those zones were created. Graves stated they could amend the code to include all zones. Bryson asked if that would be reasonable. Graves stated he felt it was consistent noting they will need to have ordinance to clarify. NOTE: Clarify Section 160 by ordinance to include all zones. OTHER CHANGES TO RR1 ZONE: Commercial all N's Planning and Zoning Commission Page 7 Land Use Table Work Session Minutes April 11, 1997 Kebschull questioned the footnote under the RR section for restaurants. Agreement that it is unnecessary. Agreement to remove C8 footnote from Restaurants. Industrial all N's. No changes under Public/Institutional. Crematories - N. Radio/TV Transmitters - C. COMMISSION COMMENTS: Discussion on how to proceed with completing the review of the table. Agreed to continue scheduling work sessions until review is complete.

ADJOURNMENT: Agenda April 23 revised.doc CITY OF KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION **MINUTES** WORK SESSION: 1. Review of the Land Use Table Individuals Present: Commission Members: Phil Bryson, Carl Glick, Ron Goecke, Barb Nord, Michael Christian, Teresa Werner-Quade (arrived at 6:50 p.m.) Others Present: Councilman Hal Smalley, Building Official Robert Springer, City Attorney Cary Graves, Administrative Assistant Marilyn Kebschull Glick noted they needed to start on RS Zone and reviewed the process that the Commission had used at the last meeting. RS—SUBURBAN RESIDENTIAL: Residential: Glick asked for changes to RS residential. Bryson voiced concern about commercial uses in RS zone. Bryson noted that the RS zone is much of the undeveloped area in the city. Bryson stated he felt the RS should be looked at as CUP and RS1 and RS2 be more restrictive. Nord noted she had an N for Auto sales and service stations in all RS zones, the rest conditional. Christian stated he was more restrictive and place N's on all commercial uses in that zone. Goecke stated he has a problem with N's if you do that most all of the available useable land in the city is in the RS zone so that means going through and rezoning if someone wants to put something in there. Christian stated he thinks that if property is rezoned it would be more appropriate so their neighbors would have time to react. Graves noted conditional uses require a public hearing and would be advertised. Nord commented that conditional use would keep from spot zoning in areas. Glick stated that rezoning is a problem if it is a small parcel. Christian agreed with Nord to first two as N's. Bryson commented that it is not uncommon to have more control with CUP than with more restrictive zoning. Glick asked if Bryson could agree to Nord's suggestion. Agreed to place N's in the commercial section for automotive sales and service stations. Nord asked if they needed to review the residential section for 4-7 dwellings. Bryson noted three family dwelling were split from four. Industrial: Glick noted the only N is suggested for gas manufacturing and storage. Nord stated she had N's on all of them adding she doesn't feel they belong in residential areas. Minutes April 23.doc Planning and Zoning Commission Page 2 Minutes April 23, 1997 Christian agreed with Nord. Bryson stated he prefers N's. Group agreed to change C's to N's. Bryson asked if gas manufacture was production. Glick stated he didn't interpret it as production, instead like an LNG production. Goecke stated he has a bit of a problem with N under warehouse. Goecke asked for a definition of a warehouse from the Commissioners. Goecke noted it could be a storage place or 100,000 square foot building. Goecke stated he believes it should remain a C. Christian noted it is listed under industrial. Glick noted Goecke is out numbered unless someone changed their mind. Bryson commented he didn't have a strong opinion one way or another. Bryson added it may be justified as a conditional use but if heavy duty warehousing with a lot of traffic may not be appropriate. Goecke stated the could deny the CUP. Bryson stated he would consider swinging to the C in warehouse. Glick agreed. All N's except C under warehouse. Public/institutional : Bryson stated he feels suggested uses under public/institutional are appropriate. Agreement to no changes. Miscellaneous: Nord stated she has an N under crematories. Christian stated he would like to look at cabin rentals noting it sounds like a commercial operation. Smalley noted the CUP gives P&Z authority if to allow a CUP after considering surrounding property, size of lot, etc. Goecke noted they already said hotels and motels are a C under the RS zone. Christian noted it would be consistent to keep it a C. Nord commented regarding recreational vehicle parks her feeling is that they don't belong in the RS zone. Glick asked for others who agreed. Bryson agreed to leave it as a C. No changes. RS1—SUBURBAN RESIDENTIAL I: Glick asked if they needed to discuss square footage on the RS1 zone, residential section. Christian noted the line through four or more dwellings on the development table. Christian stated he would like to look at RS1 noting that as it is on the books no one is using it, it is more restrictive. Christian stated he assumes that since there is no minimum square footage in the development table that they didn't want them. Christian suggested N's for four family dwellings and above. Nord agreed. Glick asked about townhouses. Nord stated she had C as they are usually owned by individuals. Bryson stated he felt the intent of the RS1 zone was to not allow more than 3 family dwellings in the subdivision. Glick asked if they could agree that 4-7 all N's. Christian Planning and Zoning Commission Page 3 Minutes April 23, 1997 stated he would feel the same for townhouses. Bryson stated he would prefer a C noting that this way they would have to justify the permit. Goecke stated he agreed to the CUP for townhouses. Nord agreed. Christian stated he would like to argue that mobile home parks and planned residential developments do no fit the RS1 category. Glick stated he agreed with mobile home but disagreed with planned developments. Goecke also disagreed with planned development. Nord stated she thought they should have a C on both because it is private property. Nord noted that mobile homes are privately owned. Bryson stated that regarding mobile homes, they will be a hard sale. Bryson noted they have their own section in the code that they have to conform to adding that Council hasn't shown any great propensity to allow them anywhere. Bryson stated he didn't know of one that had been approved since the ordinance was adopted. Bryson noted that planned residential development are usually low density with clustered housing and has it's positive aspects. Bryson stated he feels it should be allowed as a C and given the opportunity to justify itself. Goecke agreed. No other changes. Commercial: Bryson stated he believes they should be all N's. Christian agreed. Nord stated she was inclined to agree. Smalley asked about an individual who wants to have a family style restaurant. Christian stated it is a restrictive zone like putting one in a subdivision. Smalley noted that is where they are found noting there is one that was approved in Thompson Park. Christian stated they are talking about parking and traffic that a business would bring with it. Smalley noted that under a CUP they have to establish parking. Christian stated he couldn't see it in the zone. Nord stated she feels it should be N's all the way. Bryson and Goecke agreed. Change to all N's. Industrial: Christian and Nord suggested all N's. Goecke noted he left it as suggested but added that after what they did with the RS zone he could see all N's put would have a little problem with a warehouse being an N. Bryson stated it should be at least as restrictive as the RS zone. All N's. Public and Institutional: Goecke, Bryson, and Nord suggested no change. Christian noted he has N's in the blanks; first three --government buildings, libraries and museums. No changes. Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes Miscellaneous: Page 4 April 23, 1997 Christian stated he was hoping to make another pitch for animal boarding being restricted in RS1. Christian commented that it seems like in a subdivision like Inlet View you wouldn't want animal boarding. Nord stated she originally had an N and then changed to C to conform with boarding in the past. Nord stated she can be swayed. Goecke suggested leaving it as a C noting if someone wants to do this they would have to come before the commission. Bryson feels an N is appropriate. Glick noted they vote is 2 to 2 at this point. Springer commented that if an individual had four dogs they couldn't even ask to have them. Springer asked if the Commission thought that was appropriate. Christian stated he feels it is appropriate. Springer asked about cats. Kebschull asked clarification on how someone would apply and whether or not the animal control officer would issue permits and enforce the permit. Graves stated that historically Animal Control enforces. Graves noted that kennel boarding specifically addresses dogs however animal boarding does not specifically address dogs. Glick advised to leave as a C—No change. Christian stated he had N's for cabin rentals, cemeteries, and crematoriums adding they didn't seem to fit. Christian stated he felt they were left blank before as an indication they didn't want them. Christian noted an N for B&B also. Bryson stated he agrees with that keeping in mind this is the most restrictive zone. Nord agreed with crematoriums adding she has C's on the other three but would change cemeteries to N. Goecke stated he has no problem with the suggested changes. Goecke commented that he didn't think we would ever see a cemetery in RS zone as by design it takes up a lot of room. Change cabin rentals, cemeteries, and crematories to N. Christian stated he feels it should be N for dormitory and boarding houses. Goecke stated he disagrees because they allowed colleges under a conditional use and dormitories and colleges go hand in hand. Nord noted she has a C. Bryson stated he would go with a C. Glick agreed. Nord suggested RV Park should be an N. Christian stated an N for radio and t.v. transmitters. Nord stated she can speak from the heart as a neighbor has a ham radio that comes across her appliances, even an electric toothbrush. Nord commented that if you are looking at commercial versus independent, she is uncomfortable with restricting private, even her neighbor. Glick noted he has a neighbor with a c.b. that comes through. Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes Page 5 April 23, 1997 Bryson stated he felt radio, t.v. should be conditional based on what is proposed. Bryson stated he felt R.V. Parks were not appropriate. Goecke agreed. Nord noted C for transmitter. Change RV Park to N. Smalley asked how group feels about surface extraction in this zone. Christian stated he had an N. Glick noted fairly strict requirements in the code on those already. Bryson stated he didn't feel it appropriate in RS1. Nord agreed. N under surface extraction. RS2—SUBURBAN RESIDENTIAL 2: Christian would like to see it the same as RS1 in land uses. Christian noted they had left them blank in the land development table. Christian noted this is a smaller lot residential area. Bryson and Nord agreed. Change 4-7 dwellings to N. Commercial: Bryson stated he felt the RS2 zone should reflect RS1 restrictions, provide N's all the way through. Group agreement. Change to all N's. Industrial: Nord, Bryson and Goecke recommend all N's. Agreed to change to all N's like RS1 zone. Public and Institutional: No changes. Miscellaneous: Nord stated she feels it should reflect RS1 all the way down. Bryson stated he agreed except for animal boarding. Goecke agreed. RU— URBAN RESIDENTIAL: Residential: Planning and Zoning Commission Page 6 Minutes April 23, 1997 Bryson recommended no change. Agreement. Commercial: Goecke suggested leaving it. Nord suggested N's in auto sales and service stations. Bryson suggested restaurants C and asked if that is specified in the code. Graves noted C8 now. Graves agreed to check the RU zone noting it is intended to provide for areas of apartments, etc... Christian stated he can go either way, seems in urban area likely to have service stations adding he wouldn't like to live next to one. Werner- Quade stated she suggests N with auto sales and service stations. Christian stated he would rather be restrictive. Nord stated she would back down on auto service stations to a C but leave auto sales an N. Glick clarified an N on auto sales and C on service stations. Glick checked vote noting still tied on auto sales, three to three. Christian noted it is a residential zone rather than commercial. Goecke suggests a C then the Commission has control if someone asked request a permit. Glick advised they will leave as is in draft until 7' member present to break the tie. No changes. Work session ended at RU, Industrial zone. Glick asked how they should continue. Goecke commented they have not made any significant changes adding that it appears that staff put some effort into the designations. Goecke noted the Commission made some changes but now they are getting into the commercial entities for the most part. Goecke suggesting accepting staff draft unless someone has severe objections. Christian stated he doesn't think it will take very much time to finish but would prefer to go through as a group. Nord agreed adding she there are some things she is uneasy about in the zone. Discussion about when to come for work session. Agreement to meet at 6:00 on May 14'. Springer asked if they will revisit any issues in the land use table noting he is concerned primarily about all the N's under the residential sections for five and six family dwellings. Spring noted they have relegated multi -family dwelling to only a couple zones. Glick advised they will not talk about it in work sessions but when the draft is finalized someone could propose an amendment.

Bryson noted that further down the hill the old right of way cuts through there adding he is not sure why they created a frontage road situation.

City Council Smalley referred to the copy of agenda in packet. Smalley stated several gentlemen spoke representing corporations who would like to financially back the fire training center is built will build on to provide employee training. Smalley reiterated they would be using their money. Smalley added that Sakhalin's major oil companies are very Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes Page 9 April 23, 1997 excited about the facility getting online here. Smalley stated they are talking about providing funds equal to the original $8 or 9 million that the facility will cost. Smalley reported that the Kenai Recreational Ice Rink group brought forth a proposal for a bare bones project. This would be a complete year round use facility, similar to the one in North Kenai but would not have walls. Smalley noted the project is estimated at $490,000. Smalley advised a new airline will start flying into Kenai around May 1. It is Yute Airline who will provide carrier service daily, every 1.5 hours from 5 a.m. to midnight. Smalley reported that Public Hearing—Cl passed unanimously. The city wrote a letter of protest for the reissuing of liquor license. Item H6 was a discussion of city's fuel supply. Smalley noted the city will split gas and diesel and bid them separately. Smalley noted the city will renovate the shop area fuel tanks which will cost about $10,000 and then contract out the gas. Smalley noted the concern was with the rack price. The city will be basing the RFP on the Tesoro rack prices because they can vary. Smalley advised the council had gone into executive session on the Inlet Woods litigation trying to bring it to closure. Smalley noted that offers had been made several times by the owners of the property prior to the city getting involved. They are dealing with another offer now and hope to bring it to a closure so the city comes out okay. Approximately $200,000 has been spent on litigation costs which has been going for 10 or 11 years. Smalley stated that council discussed the condition of the bike paths and the heaving and will be seeing if the state can do anything with the contractor. The state will not maintain the path so Parks and Recreation will run the sweeper a couple times a year. Christian asked about the difference in the rink proposal and covering the current rink at the high school. Smalley stated that rink is in disrepair and it is borough property. Smalley stated they have talked about working with the lots on the other side of the golf course. The city will see if they can sell the lots and put that money into other recreational purposes. Then, the city would dedicate a portion of those revenues for this type of facility. Smalley added that the city has a couple of other parcels the rink committee is reviewing. Smalley stated the property next to the high school would be nice but it is not available because it is mental health land. Goecke asked for clarification on Smalley's comments on the rink at the school and the property near there. Smalley reiterated the rink is not in good repair. Goecke asked about where the tennis courts are and Smalley advised the school has said no and it is not large enough. Smalley noted the group has cut their vision down from the original $1.5 million dollar facility. Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes Page 10 April 23, 1997 Smalley noted there will be a budget work session tomorrow night at 7 p.m. b. Borough Planning Bryson noted the agenda in the packet.

Gray requested they move the plan review for Russian Orthodox Parish House under Historic Board Review. Huhndorf stated he would like to discuss meeting that will be held on Saturday. Gray stated they could discuss that under Reports. 3. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: February 24, 1997 Gray asked for changes or additions to minutes of February meeting? None noted. WIK MOVED TO APPROVE THE MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 24, 1997. MOTION SECONDED BY GODEK. 4. PERSONS PRESENT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD: None. 5. HISTORIC BOARD REVIEW: a. Plan Review of Parish House Restoration (Information will be provided at the meeting.) Gray advised she has copies for the restoration project which she passed out. Gray advised she has the original application which contains the color photographs and the project outline. Gray advised she would pass the application around. Gray outlined the project noting this house has a very poor foundation. Gray noted the plans she had passed out shows how the house will be lifted and a new basement foundation will be placed underneath. The bottom logs will be replaced and the house will be gutted. All new electrical and plumbing will be installed and hopefully Townsite Historic District Board Page 2 Minutes April21, 1997 they will install a fire extinguishing system. Gray advised there are no exterior changes except one. That will be removing the sheet metal roof and replacing with cedar shakes which was like the original roof. Gray advised she has submitted this to the city for approval by the Building Official. Gray advised because this is in the TSH zone it must be approved by this board before proceeding to Planning and Zoning. KLUGE MOVED FOR APPROVAL. GODEK SECONDED THE MOTION. Huhndorf stated he had reviewed the packet of information and asked how the changes would affect the historical details. Gray reiterated that only the foundation with a basement would be added (not visible from the exterior). Gray noted this was done with the approval of the National Historic Register. Gray added the other change will be the cedar roof. Kluge stated he has a concern on Detail B, S2. Kluge noted they are incorporating hold downs that come up on the logs with galvanized flashing. Kluge noted that will be visible from the outside of the building. Kluge added he would like to see them do something to hide them. Gray advised it will be shingled. Kluge clarified it will be shingled to cover the straps. Gray stated it is their intention to restore to as original as possible. Gray added they have the original architectural plans from the 1880's. Godek asked when the work would be done. Gray stated that it hopefully will be done this summer. VOTE. UNANIMOUS. 6. NEW BUSINESS: a. Walking Tour Brochure Huhndorf stated he had talked to the tribe and he could draft a brochure for the tribe's approval. Huhndorf noted he could collaborate with the visitor center. Godek noted they didn't have a lot of time because Kim Booth would be leaving around the middle of May. Godek stated she is concerned if Kim Booth leaves there will be no one there to take over on the project. Gray asked Huhndorf to consider the Shk'ituk't Village when they prepare the tour. a. Conditional Use Permits in the TSH Zone Gray drew attention to the ordinance for the TSH Board in the packet. Gray noted Townsite Historic District Board Page 3 Minutes April21, 1997 that right now they act as an advisory role to the Planning & Zoning Commission. Gray noted they are required to review all building that requires a site plan. Gray noted that should someone come into the area that would change the nature and require a conditional use permit, according to the ordinance, they do not have to come before the Board. Gray noted the CUP's in the ordinance and suggested they ask the city attorney for clarification if they are to review all CUP's in the zone. Gray stated that they could ask P&Z to notify them as part of the public hearing so they could attend to voice opinion even if it didn't go through the Board. Gray stated her concern goes back to the formation of the Board to review businesses to protect the area. Gray stated she would like to be able to review permits. Gray stated as she reads it someone could go to P&Z with a salmon bake, horse ride, etc. and it could be allowed. Gray commented that she felt people wanted to see an authentic historical spot, not a recreation of Disneyland. Gray stated she felt if such uses were allowed the district would lose it's integrity. Huhndorf commented on the TSH ordinance and the last sentence, "...where we have evolved." Huhndorf asked is that to or from. Gray noted you never end a sentence with a preposition. Huhndorf stated he was questioning the meaning of the statement and assumed it was from where we have evolved from. Gray agreed. a. Mission Street Project Street Lighting (Information will be provided at the meeting.) Gray noted Keith Kornelis and Henry Knackstedt here to discuss the lighting for the project. Gray noted a handout was provided. Kornelis noted there is a photo copy in the packet. Kornelis explained he had taken photos in the area of the Mission Street project. These were provided to DOT and they took a color scanner and imposed a light pole over the photo. Kornelis advised he thought that originally the Mayor had suggested some kind of street lighting. Kornelis advised the SHIPO office was not in favor of it based on the fact that there was no lighting in the early days. Kornelis stated they didn't want the city to go in and try to put lighting in to confuse the viewer that they were trying to match the lighting from the early development. Kornelis stated they didn't want something looking like a gas light, etc. Kornelis noted they wanted to make sure that the viewer would make sure it would be used for lighting and not as a historic viewpoint. Kornelis advised he had asked SHIPO to go through a catalog and give examples of lights that would be acceptable. Kornelis drew attention to the lights and poles in the handout that would be acceptable to SHIPO. Kornelis advised that SHIPO had Townsite Historic District Board Minutes Page 4 April21, 1997 been advised that this would be brought before the Board for input. Kornelis advised that Henry Knackstedt was here if they had questions. Gray asked if the drawings show where the lights were proposed for. Knackstedt stated that there is a proposed site plan that shows perhaps 50 percent of the proposed lights. Knackstedt noted SHIPO had some further ideas for in front of the church. Kornelis explained the drawing in the handout as it related to the church. Kornelis noted how they had originally planned a light directly in front of the church and they proposed moving it to the side. Kornelis stated they were asking for guidance from the Board for applicable light, fixtures, and poles in the area. Kornelis drew attention to the DOT's memo. DOT speaks of "candy cane" style lighting, color of poles, etc. Kluge noted on page 6 and page 30 of handout there is an example of light and poles. Kluge stated he would like to recommend the Board consider those. Kluge stated he would like to address and receive input on DOT's recommendation 250W HPS and would recommend the metal halide. Kluge noted it is yellow and doesn't give a natural rendition. Kluge stated metal halide would be much more pleasing noting he realized it would take more bulbs. Kornelis stated he thought they were recommending the other lights because it would require more poles for the metal halide. Knackstedt clarified which kind of bulb he would like to see and Kluge noted metal halide. Kornelis asked for clarified on Kluge's recommendation. Kluge noted it is the Park Ridge. Gray asked if they had recommendations on the color of the base. Kornelis stated he didn't feel they had a recommendation but noted they didn't want copper. Knackstedt noted they used green. Kluge noted he would like to see patina which is like bronze that has been tarnished. Kluge noted the pole is the Augusta (4200) on page 30 of the brochure. Huhndorf noted a lot of the pictures were nice for a historic district but agreed with the OHA and their feelings towards lighting. Huhndorf commented he felt that the light the church gives off at night is nice. Huhndorf asked if it has been decided on lights. Gray noted she didn't know if it was decided. Gray asked if someone would like a motion for discussion. KLUGE MOVED TO HAVE LIGHTING IN OLD TOWN AS CITED ON THE SITE PLAN MAP. SECONDED BY GODEK. Gray asked about the purpose or need for lighting noting most visitors come in the summer when lighting is not necessary. Gray stated it was her opinion that if they Townsite Historic District Board Page 5 Minutes April21, 1997 have lighting it should be subtle. Huhndorf stated he felt that too much lighting would detract from the church lighting. Huhndorf stated they could perhaps turn them off when the church has a ceremony. Wik stated she felt the safety factor should be taken into consideration noting it is the darkest part of town. Huhndorf asked for clarification. Wik stated for pedestrians, cars, etc. Gray noted the sidewalk will encourage more walking. Gray stated her preference would be to have a light at the corner and the two lights as proposed by the SHIPO office. Gray stated because ascetically the light in the center would be in the way of photographs. Godek stated that Kluge came up with a good point. Godek noted that if they don't like the light in front of the church and perhaps they could leave the one there and just move the other one down from in front. Gray stated that would be more like the original plan. Godek stated to move the second light back a little, move the one directly in front off to one side. Knackstedt asked for clarification. Kluge asked if there is anything that requires them keeping the lights on that side of the street. Gray noted the sidewalk. Kluge asked if the lights would spread across to the other side of the street. Kornelis stated he felt it would based on the wattage. Knackstedt stated he wasn't sure. Kornelis noted that SHIPO was very concerned about the one in front of the church. Kluge asked if there is a standard they have to follow? Knackstedt noted that if they have lighting, there is. Knackstedt stated because this is an historical area it may fall under some other rules. Gray asked about leaving the light on the left hand corner and eliminating the second light in front of the church. Kornelis noted there may be some requirements for the lighting from the federal program. Kornelis noted the electrical consultant was looking at somewhere around 100 feet. Gray stated that maybe they should make a recommendation as to whether they will have lights and then select lights. Kornelis stated they had intended to leave the location to the federal government based on the lights chosen (wattage). Kornelis noted that DOT would like to know what fixtures and poles the Board would recommend. Gray stated she would like to suggest that they make a recommendation about the placement of poles so that it be on the record. Gray noted the motion on the floor. KLUGE MOVED TO AMEND THE MOTION SO THAT THE BODY APPROVE Townsite Historic District Board Page 6 Minutes April 21, 1997 LIGHTING AS SUGGESTED WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE LIGHT DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE CHURCH AND HAVE THAT LIGHT REMOVED IF POSSIBLE. KLUGE NOTED THAT IN THEIR DESIGN THEY APPROVE WHATEVER LIGHT AND FIXTURE THE BOARD SELECTS. MOTION SECONDED BY WIK. GRAY CALLED FOR VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT. PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. Gray stated they need to decide on which pole, bulb, and fixture. Gray stated she liked Kluge's suggestion for the Park Ridge lighting and the pole as the Augusta 4200. Gray asked why Kluge liked the candy cane adding she felt it was in contrast with the dome on the church. Kluge noted he was looking at the distribution of the light and it being more functional. Kluge noted the 1930 is probably the closest to the onion dome. Gray stated the Old Town had a similar shape. Huhndorf noted it might be more in keeping with the shape of the dome. Godek asked if all the poles could support planters. Kornelis stated they could recommend that but added that SHIPO wasn't in favor of banners. Gray asked about the size of poles. Kornelis stated that would be engineered. Kornelis stated that DOT wanted to mention they spec these things by trying to take the recommendation and make it generic so that more than one company could supply the lights. Gray asked if Kornelis would be making the recommendation to them. Kornelis stated he would advise DOT of the Board's recommendation. Gray asked if they have agreed on the Old Town A-850 with the metal halide bulb and the Augusta 4200 FP pole in the Verde green. Godek asked if they could suggest the flower hangers. Huhndorf stated he would like to discuss the flower baskets. Huhndorf stated there is already flowers on the ground at the church adding he felt they would be a decorative that would take away from the church. Huhndorf noted others might feel it would add but he sees it as a conflict. Kluge noted the church only encompasses one corner adding she felt it would accent the street. Knackstedt noted that they would chose the flowers and the type of baskets every year. Knackstedt noted it was just a hook. Huhndorf stated he felt there was such a point that you "cutsify" something and it may be putting things in too ornate a structure than they were originally. Further discussion on the brackets. Kebschull noted they may want to obtain them while the funding is available and then they would have the option to use them. Huhndorf stated he could agree if they were detachable. Gray asked if they could agree if they were detachable. Kornelis read from brochure stating they could be permanently welded or a bracket welded for removable brackets. Kornelis noted it could be in the specs to have them removable. GRAY ASKED FOR VOTE ON MAIN MOTION TO ACCEPT SITE PLAN. Townsite Historic District Board Minutes UNANIMOUS. Page 7 April21, 1997 Gray asked when Kornelis expected to hear back from DOT on their recommendation. Kornelis noted that it appears that the grant will not include the poles and the lighting and that would be bid as an additive alternate and that the city would have to pick up the cost. Kornelis added they are trying to get it included in the grant. Gray stated that if it does go to council, she would suggest that the lighting start at the visitor's center. Kornelis advised that they are willing to pay for the underground. Gray asked if Kornelis knew when there would be a bid. Kornelis stated that DOT advised it will be done this fall. Kornelis noted that the city has been very involved to this point but that once it goes out to bid, the involvement will not be as much. Kornelis explained the process for DOT to get to the bidding point. Kornelis advised there will be a public hearing held with this Board, Planning and Zoning, and all of the property owners in the area. Kornelis noted they will discuss the parking area for the church. Knackstedt asked Gray about the restoration and if anything in the basement would require sewer. Gray shared a copy of plans with Knackstedt. 7. OLD BUSINESS: a. Sign Grant • Townsite Historic District Signs/Rotary Club Kluge noted he had asked council to provide funding for a medallion. Kluge noted they agreed fund up to $1000. Kluge advised he had tried to see what he could get for that amount. Kluge noted for a 3.5" cloisonnd medallion, they wanted $1 100. Kluge stated he got them to agree to accept $1000 excluding shipping. Kluge shared a City of Kenai medallion and a sample they had sent. Kluge stated he would like to have the Board's blessing on the medallion and number of signs for the TSH signs. Huhndorf stated he loves the medallion but asked if there was a way to include a tribal insignia on the seal. Kluge stated the council had approved the $1000 for this medallion. Gray stated the tribe may want to approach the city about including an insignia on the medallion in the future. Kebschull, noting she was speaking to the group as grant administrator, which was responsible for making sure they were in compliance with the grant advised she had provided a copy of the text for the grant and the funding. Kebschull noted the funding specified in kind services of the Rotary. Kebschull asked for clarification from Kluge how Rotary Club would be fulfilling the in kind services. Kebschull added that the items specified in the memo needed to be clarified. Kebschull noted Townsite Historic District Board Page S Minutes April21, 1997 her concern that they were running out of time. Kebschull stated that from what she hears from Kluge is that he has been taking on the project himself. Kluge stated he is acting on behalf of the Rotary Club and is compiling the components so they go can to work. Kluge stated they need the material to do their part. Kluge stated the club's part is to assemble the material and install the signs. Kluge reiterated they need to get all of the components to support their participation in the grant. Kluge stated that is why it is imperative to get the medallions, plaques, and wood ordered. Kebschull asked Kluge if he had looked further into having the routing done professionally. Kluge stated they will have the main text routered as discussed and the verbiage on the individual historic buildings will be on brass plaques. Kebschull clarified if Kluge meant to contract with someone to router the signs? Kluge stated yes. Gray asked if Rotary would be paying for that. Kluge stated Rotary has already paid for the medallions which were in the grant. Kebschull stated it was $100 and Kluge corrected it at $150. Kebschull stated she didn't believe that amount would pay for the routering on the signs. Kluge stated they needed to come up with a material list and price it out adding he had gotten a better price on the wood posts. Kluge noted that material prices fluctuate so until they were ready to order he didn't have a materials list priced out. Kluge noted the city has budgeted $1,000 for the medallions and he would like to get those coming. Kebschull commented that she is not willing to pay for the postage out of the grant until they know for sure they have an extra $50 in the grant. Kluge stated if the $50 is a problem, he will pay for it. Kebschull noted that it isn't a problem but they cannot fund items that were not originally budgeted until they know costs they will have. Kebschull stated that she has to fill out papers for the OHA and must be able to justify costs and they must be documented in the meeting minutes. Kebschull noted her concern is that they are talking about having a contractor router the signs which was not in the original scope of work. Kebschull added this was supposed to be done in people garages. Kebschull commented her concern is that basically they are being done professionally and very little actual in kind service being done. Kluge stated that actually the bulk of the services are being done by the Rotary Club adding the bulk of the labor is assembling the components of the sign. Kluge stated there is very little text being routered in the signs, the name of the building and the date. Kebschull asked if there was an estimate. Kluge stated he could provide it as soon as he knew what the text was. Kluge added he needed to use AutoCAD to produce files which he was going to donate through his office. This would be forwarded to the routering company. Kluge stated this is simply a matter of coming off an AutoCAD file to instruct the router where to place the text and what size. Kluge stated he felt he has a handle on it and that they just need to proceed. Townsite Historic District Board Page 9 Minutes April21, 1997 Kebschull advised that because she had been given the authority by the City Manager and is responsible for the grant it is her feeling that until they know the number of signs, the costs for wood, posts, stains, etc. everything to construct the TSH signs and the Shk'ituk't sign, the film and developing, until all of those costs are known, they won't know if they have money left. Kebschull noted she didn't see any way around this adding she would be very "sticky" about following the guidelines noting she is responsible for them following the grant requirements. Kluge suggested that Kebschull get on the phone to the lumber yard and get prices for the posts, components and let the Board know what the costs are. Kebschull advised that Rotary was supposed to supply that information adding that is why she is asking. Gray stated she had the original memo that she wrote city council and read, "It was our understanding after meeting with George Ford and Charlie Pierce that their group is willing to volunteer the time and the labor to make 25 signs. These signs are 4 foot wooden planks, approximately 6 inches wide with the name routed into the wood. There is an indented space measuring 4 X 8 where a metal plaque can be inserted with detailed information engraved upon it. The Rotary members will attend the October meeting with exact costs of the wood, mounting posts, and engraving estimates. Consequently, the cost per sign will be for materials only since they are supplying the labor." Gray noted this is what Charlie and George had originally told the Board. Kebschull advised she didn't have a problem if there is enough money to afford all of these items but that they need to make sure that they are keeping everything in line and that they don't get into a position where they can't fulfill the grant. Kluge stated that as past president of the Rotary Club and as current vice-president of the Rotary Club, any deficit they have on their part of the project the Rotary Club will come up with additional funds. Kebschull advised Kluge that he didn't understand that she couldn't do that. Kluge stated the fact of the matter is that there is a budget that they have to live within. Kebschull stated correct. Kluge stated he is saying they will live within the budget they have, give him the dollar amount available, they will get what needs to be done, and get the signs accomplished. Kluge reiterated to give him the dollar amount that they can give the Rotary Club for materials and the rest is Rotary's burden. Kebschull advised she couldn't even do that until they know what the cost will be for the Shk'ituk't sign as well as the other costs. Kluge stated he thought the signs were separated in the grant. Kebschull stated they were but there was extra money and they had talked about transferring money from one segment to help cover the cost for the Shk'ituk't sign. Huhndorf noted he remembered that and the Shk'ituk't sign cost was high. Kebschull commented that the cost for the Shk'ituk't sign had been underestimated. Kluge stated his concern is that it is very hard to mobilize a group of people. Kluge noted that this project has been lingering on for a long time and that he had a lot of Townsite Historic District Board Page 10 Minutes April21, 1997 time involved just getting the medallion issue solved. Kluge commented that people's tempers are getting short as his is because he is tired of messing with it and would like to get the project done. Kluge stated he would like to know what his budget it and he will take it from there to finish the project if he is so allowed. Kluge stated that is where he would like direction tonight. Kluge asked what they have in the way of a budget. Kluge noted it is 6 to 8 weeks for the medallions and that he had gone to the council and had approval to obtain those. Kluge stated he would like to get the medallions ordered. Kluge stated if he is $50 short on shipping, he will personally pay the additional $50 to get the ball rolling. Kluge stated he would like the body's blessings to take the amount allocated in the grant for materials and proceed with the project. Huhndorf asked if it is written into the grant that they can't do what Kluge is suggesting. Huhndorf stated it is his understanding that Kluge will make any adjustment financially and charge it to the Rotary. Kluge stated the Rotary will come up with any additional costs if over budget. Kebschull stated she is not at liberty to say whether or not they can do this or not adding she would have to take it the City Manager for direction. Kebschull added that she cannot write purchase orders for over the amount of the grant. Kebschull stated that she personally has a problem going outside of the scope of work from the original grant. Kebschull added that if the Board feels they have enough money and if that is what they want to do, it is up to the Board. Huhndorf asked if it is legal or ethical. Kluge stated the bottom line in his personal dealings with grants is to achieve a goal. Kluge stated the person providing the grant moneys could care less if you have $10 on this line and it was supposed to have $15 as long as the bottom line ends up with what they had agreed to provide the money for is accomplished. Huhndorf asked if what they want to provide extra money for would change the nature of the grant and put the application in jeopardy. Kluge stated the only item he has heard Kebschull's concern with is the matter of routing the signs. Kluge added that their club had made a stab at routing signs within the membership and they accomplished two or three signs and they looked poor. Kluge stated that is why he is suggesting they get them done professionally so they look good and they don't have to depend on the Rotary Club to do. Kluge commented that the Rotary Club is good when there is a work task assigned but when it comes to artistic ability, it is not there. Huhndorf asked if they are not going outside of the scope of work, what is the difficulty. Kebschull asked if she would be asked to write a purchase order to a company to pay for routering? Kluge stated if there are funds available adding if he spends less money on the posts, he would like to allocate that money to the routering. Kebschull stated she would have to take to the City Manager because it is specific what the funds will be spent for project personnel. Kluge noted the numbers had been come up with two years ago. Kluge noted the price of materials Townsite Historic District Board Minutes Page 11 April21, 1997 has changed within those two years so you can count on numbers coming in differently than what was noted. Kluge added the fact of the matter is that inflation during that period of time would probably cause the budget to go into deficit. Gray recommended that the Board move ahead by finding out how many signs they have to purchase and then go ahead and find out how much it will costs for the cedar, posts, screws, wood preservative. Then, see how that fits in with the budget and get those things ordered that need to be ordered. Huhndorf asked if that could be done without a Board meeting? Gray stated yes. Gray stated as she sees it the amount for the routering would have to be taken from, stated she didn't know where it would be taken from. Kebschull advised the budget is split into three sections and it would have to be placed under contractual services. Kebschull added that she didn't know how they would do that explaining that the contractual services would already probably be over for the Shk'ituk't sign. Kebschull stated she would have to go back to finance and ask them. Kluge asked Kebschull for the name of the contact person for the grant. Kebschull advised she has several. Kluge asked for the name of one. Kebschull advised Kluge to contact her tomorrow at the office and she could supply names. Kluge stated he would like to give them a call and have a discussion with them. Kebschull advised Kluge that as contract administrator she would prefer he go through her and the city as they are administering the grant. Kluge stated he is just trying to streamline the process as he sees it just dragging out. Kebschull advised the city is responsible for all the funds and advised Kluge if he had a problem he should see the City Manager. Kebschull commented that when she asked about the Shk'ituk't sign they had told her that funds could be moved a little here and there because of the way the original budget was prepared. Gray noted that since they changed the design of the signs they will not need 60 posts. Kebschull added that they will only have about half the original signs if they decide not to sign all of the properties at the Moose Range Headquarters. Kebschull drew attention to OHA's comment regarding these signs. Gray stated she thought it was a suggestion or recommendation that the signs be placed on the exterior of the four cabins and not on a post. Gray noted that would save money. Gray stated Fort Kenay would be the same because there wouldn't be a place to put a sign because of parking other than on the building. Gray asked how many signs they had to review tonight. Godek commented she thought they had already reviewed the signs. Kebschull asked if the Board wanted to take care of the Shk'ituk't Village Sign because then they would have an exact Townsite Historic District Board Minutes cost for that sign to work with. Page 12 April21, 1997 Kluge stated he had to leave and asked the Board to advise him when they made a decision regarding the budget. Kebschull advised without Kluge they would no longer have a quorum. Kluge left. Note: At 7:15 p.m. no longer a quorum. Remaining members decided to go ahead and review the three sign texts that Huhndorf had provided and to submit them to OHA. Also, decided to place only one sign at the Moose Range Headquarters. • Shk'ituk't Village sign quotes • Sign Text Revisions b. Preservation Plan B. REPORTS: 9. INFORMATION: a.

Purchase Orders Exceeding $2,500 MOTION: Councilman Moore MOVED to approve the purchase orders over $2,500 and Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion. Councilman Bannock asked about the laptop computer being purchased for the well house #3-what does "approved by DEC/grant eligible" mean? Kornelis answered that the contract called for a hand-held programmer and software. He said the hand-held programmer holds only one program so we would need one for each lift station and one for each application. Therefore, he said, it would be better to have one laptop which will hold all the programs needed for all the 15 lift stations, 3 well houses, an underground pump house and the sewer treatment plant. He said DEC gave the City a credit for the laptop of $1,099. Councilman Moore asked about the additional audit fees for FY96 audit for Mikunda Cottrell: "Did we go over the budgeted amount?" Finance Director Semmens answered, "Yes." He stated the auditor came and talked to them. He said the auditor did mention in his report the extra things that he did, but he didn't bill us for about $4,000 of extra hours on the project because Semmens negotiated with him and they decided to settle on $1,800 that Semmens would bring to- Council for approval. Semmens said the extra hours were due to the situation that was here at the time and that it was to be expected and "is not a bad deal." No objections. 80 ORDERED. ITEM I: ADMINISTRATION REPORTS I-1. Mayor - Measles stated there are memos in the packet for Council to review. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES APRIL 2, 1997 PAGE 5 OF 6 I-2. City Manager - a. Ross stated he received the appraisal on the 31.5 acres of the Coyle property that abuts the City dock. The appraisal was for $257,000. Ross said the Administration knows of no reason for the City to purchase the property. b. Ross stated he had planned to ask Council to make a decision on the fueling situation, but he will wait for a full Council. C. Ross said that on April 10 Council has a budget work session at which Kathy Scott and Colleen Ward will make a 30 minute presentation on the Economic Outlook Forum on 4/26/97. I-3. Attorney - No report. I-4. City Clerk - Acting City Clerk Paulsen told Council she had received a request to invite the members of the Cultural Council to the Volunteer Reception. She asked if Council approved inviting those 13 members. Councilman Bookey stated the members have been quite extensively involved. There were no objections to inviting them. Council directed the Clerk to send invitations to the Cultural Council. I-5. Finance Director - Semmens handed out draft budget for FY97-98. I-6. Public Works Director - Kornelis stated the dock lease bids will be opened tomorrow. The dunes project is complete and final inspection is scheduled for April 11. The Corps will be here for a visit on April 10 regarding a navigational study requested by the City. They will looking at dredging, erosion planning, etc. Also, the City had asked for information regarding a possible loan from the Alaska Drinking Water Fund. He said there is a possibility the City may be able to get a forgivable loan under the Disadvantaged Assistance Program. Kornelis said he will bring more information to Council regarding this loan. 1-7. Airport Manager - No report. ITEM J: DISCUSSION J-1. Citiaens - Bob Peters said he wanted to remind Council that in April the Library will be open by public request. He suggested if Council members are available they may want to stop by on those Sundays and get another perspective on the size of the Library. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES APRIL 2, 1997 PAGE 6 OF 6 J-2. Council Bookey - He asked if anything was heard about the medallions to be used on the signs in Old Town. Acting City Clerk Paulsen stated that she was told the sample medallion was not acceptable so Bill Kluge is going to do some further research. Moore - He stated he saw the medallions and that they were "flimsy" and overpriced. He said Bill Kluge is trying to get something like the ones being used by the Rotary Club. Also, Moore said he wanted to express his frustration at being the ad hoc member of the Historic District Board. He said lack of quorums is a problem and something needs to be done. Councilman Bookey said he sympathizes because he used to have the same problem when he was on the Board. Bookey stated there is such a thing as a sunset and, if they don't want to continue, maybe the Board should be disbanded. Moore said there are four members who are dedicated, but five are needed for a quorum. City Manager Ross stated that Administration will research the grant to see what the options are once that grant is finished. He said that until the grant is finished he doesn't believe sunsetting is an option. Ross said he will bring that information back to Council at the next meeting. Measles - Nothing. Bannock - Nothing. ITEM K: ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at approximately 7:20 p.m. Minutes transcrib and submitted by: Shery . Paulsen, Acting City Clerk BUDGET WORK SESSION April 10, 1997 7:00 p.m. Kenai Council Chambers Council present:: Williams, Smalley, Swarner, Measles, Bannock, Moore (arrived at 7:20 p.m.), Bookey (arrived at 7:30). Staff present: Ross, Semmens, Howard, Kornelis, Kohler, Burnett, Frates, DeForest, Porter, Ernst, Elson Others present: Colleen Ward, Steve Kadel (Peninsula Clarion) Kenai Economic Outlook Forum Colleen Ward (K. Scott and Associates) gave a presentation as to what was planned for the Kenai Economic Outlook Forum project to be held on April 26. Ward wanted to make sure the proposed Forum Outcomes were what the Council had in mind. She said if the Council had other ideas, to let her know as soon as possible. A Forum Draft Agenda was reviewed. There were no objections to the proposed agenda. Ward showed Council a list of proposed Forum Presenters. Mayor Williams asked Ward to contact Doug Jung with more details. Ward said Participant Packets would be sent out prior to the meeting but some will be available at the door for the public. Ward discussed the role of Councilmembers for the forum. She said K. Scott and Associates would like the Council to serve as recorders for the group breakout sessions. The small groups were to then go back into one large group and discuss results. Swarner said she would like information on how the airline schedules were impacting the community. Ward asked if the Council wanted K. Scott and Associates to come back in two weeks and give a wrap-up of how things are going before the forum. It was decided a presentation could be given at the April 24 work session. Golf Course Lots Ross reported the Kenai Recreational Ice Rink Task Force intended to make a presentation to the City Council for funds for an ice rink. Ross suggested the project be presented to Alaska State Parks and the National Park Service in Page 1 of 5 conjunction with the idea that revenues derived from the sale of the lots adjacent to the golf course be used to develop this recreational project. Ross said in that instance, money for a proposed rink wouldn't need to come from the general fund balance. He asked Council to consider the idea. Fire Rescue Helmets Ross reported he spoke with Dave Ahlberg (owner of Kitchen Express) regarding infra -red helmets. Ross said there would be a meeting on the 15'h at 2:00 with Chief Burnett. The cost is $25,000 per helmet. Burnett had previously told Ross, two if any, should be purchased because two firemen were sent into burning buildings together. The helmets are not budgeted. Ross thought it would be helpful if a survey was done of groups that had purchased the helmets to find out their experiences if we determine to pursue this further. Ross distributed a memorandum with budget revenue and projection scenarios for FY98 - FY03. He said there haven't been projections in past budgets. Ross said page 1 of his memorandum outlined the financial basis of the scenarios. Ross said he thought the FY98 budget was an optimistic one. Ross said he would like Council to discuss the enterprise funds first, then the general fund budget. He said the general fund budget was based on a 2% cut in municipal assistance and revenue sharing funding. It now looks as though there will be a 5% cut and the new numbers will be reflected in the final budget. Ross explained that Scenario 1 represents pulling out $1 million for the equipment reserve fund and $600,000 for the animal control shelter. He asked Council to review the scenarios and compare the mill rates and appropriations from fund balance. He said in Scenario 2, we would be in trouble as early as FY01. He asked Council to look at Scenario 3 at FY03; with an 8.20 mill rate, the fund balance is unacceptable. Ross then asked Council to look on page 2 of his memo at the section titled "Recommendations for Reductions in FY98 General Fund Budget". The bottom of Scenario 4 identifies what these reductions will do. Ross said he didn't think these reductions were draconian. He said, regarding FY02, we're still in trouble with over $1 million appropriated from fund balance and the unreserved/undesignated fund balance was unacceptably low. Regarding Scenario 1, Ross said if the administration makes these cuts and does as outlined in the memorandum, the FY03 appropriation of fund balance is $892,335. The unreserved/undesignated fund balance is nearly $3 million. Page 2 of 5 Ross asked that Council not cut operation portions of this budget. He said if training is cut, a few dollars will be gained, but not what is needed. He would like employees to have the tools and training to do their jobs. He asked the Council to consider next year's budget a guide for Council and Administration. If the economic picture goes up, we can change the plan. Attached to Ross' memorandum are justifications for personnel position reductions. He said when a position comes vacant he would like to take a look at the position and have it justified. He asked Council to read and examine the handout before the next work session and to contact him if they had questions. Williams stated he appreciated the time and effort that was put into the draft budget document. He pointed out that for many years the City has projected taking large sums from the fund balance but didn't use all of it. The fund balance continues to grow even when we are taking money out. Williams said he was optimistic about the economy and felt the draft budget was too conservative. Ross stated that we don't spend about 8% but that margin is narrowing. Semmens added because of the equipment reserve fund, we guarantee the City is not going to spend at least $300,000 of the budget. Ross reminded Council that $300,000 is not in this budget. Ross said the budget was based on the economic reality seen. He said if we are wrong, adjustments can be made. Williams asked if the $631,937 appropriation of fund balance for FY98 would be a true number or will we see it be less based on past history. Semmens answered he thought that close to 5-7 percent will not be spent but there will be approximately $200,000 of encumbrances. Ross said page 18 of the draft budget will be replaced. Williams said he thought the mill rate should be increased to match the loss of municipal assistance and fish tax. This way, the taxpayers would clearly understand why the mill rate is going up. Finance Director Semmens reviewed the budget using the overhead projector. He distributed graphs showing the following funds: All Funds - Revenue Sources; All Funds - Expenditures by Object; General Fund - Revenue Sources; General Fund - Expenditures by Function; General Fund - Expenditures by Object; Enterprise Funds - Expenditures by Function; Enterprise Funds - Expenditures by Object; Special Revenue Funds - Expenditures by Function; and Special Revenue Funds - Expenditures by Object. Semmens stated there was to be a change in the draft document because expenditures were overstated by $50,000. He said in FY98 the City would pay off a debt service for 1967 bonds. Page 3 of 5 There was some discussion regarding the formula for motor vehicle registration. Mayor Williams felt the City was being shortchanged. Semmens stated fish tax was anticipated at 25% - 30% over last year. Of that, the State gets 50%, the Borough 25%; and the City 25%. Semmens said historically the number put in the draft budget is not out of line. Porter reported there was money in the budget for repairing windows. They wished to replace windows in the living room. It may be necessary to replace windows in some of the bedrooms out of the FY97 budget. She said there was a small increase in Administration. She said Repairs and Maintenance is a guess. The building will be five years old in September. No changes were made to the draft budget. Senior Citizen Title III Grant Fund Porter said overtime has decreased. They have increased their fundraising. There is no City money involved in this account. Senior Citizen/Borough Grant Fund Porter reported some money may come out of the unencumbered fund balance (rather than from the general fund) to purchase a new stove, a TV set and a computer. �ai L8111 Ross reminded Council he would like some direction at the Council meeting regarding the lots on Lawton. Williams reported there would be representatives from BP at the next Council meeting to discuss fire training facilities and how to finance them. Williams said he would like to see about expanding services. Ernst reported Lisa and Bob Priewe wished to start a new airline passenger service at the Kenai Airport. Ernst said he would like to lease them the space between ERA and SouthCentral Air. Williams stated he would like to see more advertising money in the budget as soon as possible for the ARFF project. Page 4 of 5 Ernst said the FAA expects a decision to be made for $6.2 million in discretionary funds by July 1. Smalley stated he told Barb Nord to contact Ross regarding which meeting the Beautification Committee should attend regarding banners.

Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 2 of 15 ITEM B: SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENT B-1. Fire Training Center - Mayor Williams announced that there would now be a presentation regarding the Fire Training Center by Bob Reynolds from British Petroleum, Maurice Rank from Engineer Services, Inc. (ESI), Fran Reinhardt, CEO of ESI, and Terry Haymond from Symtron. Mayor Williams stated that ESI is a wholly -owned subsidiary of Symtron and is involved in professional services toward the operation of the proposed facility. The discussion will be about the possibility of expanding the Fire Training Center, Williams said, to a great degree in a manner beneficial to the City of Kenai. He referred to an item listed in his report to Council regarding his recent trip to Russia: "Signing of the Charter for the `Sakhalin Alaska Training Institute' by Governors Knowles, Governor Farkhutdinov and Dennis Steffy for the University and the Russian director for the institute." Mayor Williams said that the implications of the Charter and of the presentation to be heard tonight is that there will be a great deal of interchange, training and personnel moving back and forth between Sakhalin and Kenai through the use of the facility presently being built. Williams stated that while in Russia they also dedicated a non-stop regular airline service from Anchorage to Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk for passengers and freight, and a new Alaska Business Center was dedicated in Sakhalin so business people traveling back and forth have a place to work. Mayor Williams called for a recess so a slide presentation could be made. (Recessed at 7:12; re -adjourned at 7:29.) B-2. Kenai Recreational Ice Rink - Kathy Ehrhardt spoke first. She stated she has lived in Kenai for 121/2 years and that she feels strongly that the proposed ice rink "needs to be built." Ehrhardt said she volunteers with kids in the local schools as a coach and believes that kids are happier and healthier when they have opportunities to participate in recreational and sporting activities. Kids have so many negative influences upon them, Ehrhardt said, that parents and communities need to provide positive, constructive activities for kids to participate in. She said she believes this proposed ice rink would provide those things, both in organized and unorganized formats. She urged Council to fund the building of the rink to increase the quality of life in Kenai and provide another reason to make Kenai a great place to raise a family. Ehrhardt also praised the Parks and Rec Department for maintaining and grooming the ski trails this last winter. She said that was "a wonderful addition to life in Kenai." Mayor Williams asked City Manager Ross to give the Council his idea of a possible way to fund the ice rink. Ross stated that the City owns land on Lawton Street along the golf course Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 3 of 15 that is restricted under the Bureau of Recreation. The lots have utilities to them, he said. If Council wanted to use that land for the ice rink project, possibly the City could approach the BOR for release of that land so the City could sell the lots and use the proceeds to build the ice rink. This plan, he said, would also have the benefit of getting those lots on the tax rolls. On the "down side," Ross said, is the fact that the ice rink could not be built this year because the funding procured this way would take time. Councilman Moore asked Ross if he knew the assessed value of those lots. Ross did not. He said they are high value property, though. Mayor Williams said they might be valued at $40,000 or $50,000 each because of their prime location. Williams said he thinks there are 13 lots platted, with the rest in a block. He said he thinks they would sell very quickly. The question, he said, is whether the BOR would allow sale of that land to obtain funds for recreational use. Nate Kiel spoke. He said he has resided in Kenai since 1970. He reviewed the history of the ice rink project which, he stated, began in 1985 with the formation of a committee. In May 1991 a petition and endorsements from local citizens demonstrated the need for an ice rink, Kiel said. In February 1992, the City commissioned a 7-member task force to research the feasibility of building an ice rink, Kiel reported. Based on findings at that time, the City named the ice rink its "top capital project for economic development and tourism" in 1993, Kiel said. The City and the task force agreed that a "bare bones, refrigerated rink" at that time could be built for about $1.8 million, he said. The plan and funding never developed, and the task force declined to endorse a bond proposition to fund the facility, said Kiel. Another bond proposition later failed at the polls, Kiel stated. Kiel said that in late 1996 another group of citizens began to look again at this project. The Kenai Parks & Rec Commission recommended that the group form an official task force and bring forth an official proposal for their endorsement, he said. The task force was formed with members of major baseball, softball, hockey and figure skating organizations, as well as folks from recreational interests. On April 3, 1997 the task force made a formal presentation to Parks & Rec which endorsed the proposal and passed it on to the City Council, Kiel said. Kiel reviewed the highlights of the current proposal. He read, "We believe the time has come for the City of Kenai to provide its residents with a multi -purpose recreational shelter." Kiel said that statement shows how the task force has lowered its expectations and is now asking only for a covered ice rink and multi -purpose shelter for recreational use. Kiel stated that the rink in the North Kenai area has had a dramatic increase in use in just one year; Soldotna has the Sports Center as well as four maintained rinks; the City of Kenai put in Nordic ski trails which are highly successful already, but the ice rink at KCHS is not useable because of its age and location. Kiel pointed out to Council the information included in the packet describing a cost-effective Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 4 of 15 ice rink which would be self-sufficient and service a broad user base. He said the task force is asking the Council to appropriate $493,000 to build a covered ice rink with a short, stem wall and columns with a roof and lights. Kiel pointed out that the first phase focuses on site excavation, building foundation, frames, steel roof, asphalt surfacing, and rink dasher boards. "We feel very comfortable with those numbers; we've included very generous contingencies," Kiel stated. Kiel said the committee makes no recommendation as to the specific site, but it is their recommendation that a site be chosen close to KCHS and Kenai Middle School. He stressed the point that the proposed rink would be a self-sustaining facility. He said Nikiski has had no problem with their facility being self-sustaining. The committee recommends that the City handle scheduling of the facility's use, Kiel said; but regarding maintenance of the facility there are a few options offered in the proposal because Parks & Rec Director Bob Frates had expressed his concern that his staff would not be able to handle the increased work load. Kiel said the committee used a figure one-half the amount of what the Sports Center charges and the same as what Nikiski charges for use of the rink —and was still able to show the facility making money because there would be no heating bills and no City employees to maintain the building. He said the committee tried to be extremely practical in its design of the facility. Kiel stated that the committee has acquired a list of over two dozen organizations who endorse this proposal for an ice rink in Kenai. He said the committee recommends the facility be used 5 to 6 months out of the year as a covered rink for recreational skating, figure skating, hockey, broom ball, etc., that the facility be used in April and May as a spring training facility for softball and baseball, that in June through September it be used for other recreational interests, and if there are gaps that the facility be rented out. Regarding the discussion about the lots on Lawton being sold to fund the ice rink, Kiel said he and the committee think it is generally a good idea; but the problem with it is the time it would take. He said the ice rink should have been built a long time ago and that the project should move forward now —without more delays. In closing, Kiel said that even though we live in an area where most of our year is winter and we don't really have adequate outdoor recreational opportunities, the City currently spends thousands of dollars every year to provide recreational opportunities and expanded services for summer visitors. Kiel stated, "We all know the value that sports and recreational activities have in the growth and development of our youth. Some of the children in this room this evening will be the leaders of our city tomorrow. Let's build this facility for the whole community —especially the kids." Councilman Smalley asked if the proposed facility would be used for the school hockey program. Kiel said that the committee did not foresee it that way overall. He said they want it used for a wide variety of sports and activities from "broomball to baseball, soccer to Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 5 of 15 softball, skateboarding to rollerblading, and basketball to badminton," for example. Mayor Williams asked City Manager Ross if he knew when the BOR might respond to the letter regarding sale of the Lawton Street land. Ross said the letter was sent approximately ten days ago. Ross stated that Council needs to decide if that's what they want to do with the land. If so, then Ross would like to work with representatives of the task force to make a group presentation to BOR. Councilman Bannock asked if BOR is federal or state. Ross answered that it's federal money that is funneled through the state. Does permission come at the federal level, Bannock asked. Mayor Williams stated that the City has been negotiated on two separate occasions to get these lots freed up. He said that the Administration and Attorney Graves came up with this idea of using the proceeds from the sale of the land to build a recreational facility. Councilman Bookey stated that he likes the idea. He said it would put the lots into the private sector and the ice rink would be funded. MOTION: Councilman Bookey MOVED to have Administration approach Bureau of Recreation regarding selling the lots along Lawton and using the proceeds to build an ice rink. Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion. No objections. SO ORDERED. Nate Kiel stated again that the committee is worried that proceeding through BOR will take too long. City Manager Ross asked Kiel if he could meet with the committee and involve them in the negotiations with BOR—giving the committee a sense of the progress of the project. Kiel agreed to that. Mayor Williams said that if BOR says yes to this plan the project might be hurried along by having Council advance the money for the project and be reimbursed by the sale of the lots. Councilman Bookey said he agrees with that as long as the City has a firm commitment from BOR. Councilman Smalley said the location of the facility will need to be determined with the Borough. City Manager Ross said he would like to look at site selections with the committee. He said then the committee and the City jointly could approach the Borough administration. Mayor Williams reminded Council that the site between Rogers Road and the high school is mental health property and the Borough does not have title to it. He suggested we ask the Borough to contact the State again immediately to see if anything has been done with it. B-3. Priewe Air Service, Inc. - Lisa Priewe, President Lisa Priewe spoke. She said she grew up on the Kenai Peninsula and her parents have lived here since 1970. She stated that she and her husband started Priewe Air Service in 1993, Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 6 of 15 currently providing air charter services primarily for the oil industry. Priewe said Priewe Air Service would like to expand their services and provide air transportation for passengers and freight to the Kenai Peninsula. Priewe Air Service is dedicated to safety, she said. She said the reason she wants to expand to the Kenai Peninsula is to bring "safety back into aviation." Their chief pilot has over 20,000 hours flight time and a spotless safety record, she reported. Regarding association with Yute Air, Priewe reported she wanted to provide terminal space for Yute Air's people; however, Priewe was not able to take on the financial obligation at this time. They talked with Yute Air and Merlin Express and feel that together they can all do an excellent job for the community and the oil industry. Priewe introduced Will Johnson, the owner of Yute Air. Will Johnson said that Yute Air was originally formed in Dillingham as Bob Harris Flying Service. In 1973 it was purchased by Phillip Bingman(?) who changed the name to Yute Air, which is a distortion of the Yupik word "yuut" which means "people." Yute Air operated under Mr. Bingman until 1988 when he lost his operating certificate after the Homer accident and a strict interpretation of the rules and regulations. Johnson said he (Johnson) is one of four former employees who purchased the company and got the operating certificate reinstated; he is now the only owner. Yute Air began under Johnson in 1990 in Bethel. They have now expanded to about 30 small planes operating in western Alaska —Dillingham, Antiak, Nome, Bethel and Kotzebue. They will be starting up in King Salmon with two planes this summer. Yute Air began working with Merlin Express approximately one year ago providing charter service to King Salmon for a major lodge there; and in 1996 they began services in Bethel and the other towns. He said they would like to begin service in Kenai on May 24, 1997. They are operating the 19 passenger Fairchild Metro 3, with four of the planes having the high gross weight option. Most of them are operated with 17 passengers to allow for more baggage room (almost 1400 lbs). Johnson said he proposes 10 flights a day to Kenai starting at 5:30 a.m. with the last flight returning to Anchorage just after midnight. He said there would be a mid -afternoon gap, otherwise the flights would operate every 11/2 hours. The Metro is fast and efficient; air time between Kenai and Anchorage will take about 14 minutes —with total time being 18 - 20 minutes. Johnson stated their rates will run between $36 and $44 one way. Mayor Williams asked Randy Ernst what the airport is doing about lease space. Ernst responded that Priewe has chosen the office between Southcentral and ERA. Agreements are made; all that's left is to sign the documents, he said. Council welcomed Priewe Air Service and Yute Air to Kenai. Kenai Citv Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 7 of 15 ITEM C: PUBLIC HEARING4 C-1. Resolution No. 97-18 - Awarding A Four Year Lease of the Kenai Dock Station No. 2 to Snug Harbor Seafoods, Inc. for the Yearly Base Bid of $15,000 and a Two Year Lease of the Kenai Dock Station No. 3 to Snug Harbor Seafoods, Inc. for the Yearly Base Bid of $9,000. MOTION: Councilman Bookey MOVED to approve Resolution No. 97-18. Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion. There were no public comments. Keith Kornelis stated that the only responsible bidders were Snug Harbor Seafoods and R&J Seafoods. However, inside R&J's envelope they said "no bid." Two other envelopes were received, but they had no name on the outside as required so they were not considered responsible bids. No objections to unanimous consent. PASSED by unanimous consent.

SO ORDERED. lit XT 1 • Wu 1 • • flu 3 • • D-1. Council on Aging Pat Porter advised Council that she had received a call from Senator Ward's office regarding whether she wished to request any capital funding this year. She then sent him a request for $35,000 for the purchase of a new Meals On Wheels van. The old one has 140,000 miles on it, and the maintenance shop is recommending it be replaced. Rep. Hodgins' office called her and asked for information about the request. D-2. Airport Commission Councilman Measles reported he did not attend the meeting due to the budget work session being held at the same time. He said there is a memo in the packet about rental car leases. Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 8 of 15 Administration is advising against it, but the Commission voted to proceed with their original recommendation of extending the leases for five years after renovation of the spaces and that the leases include the new square footage after renovation. He stated Council needs to make a decision. Ross said that he supported the idea when Mr. Thibodeau came to him and said the car rental agencies wanted to renovate their spaces for their own purposes and at their own expense. Ross said he made it clear to Thibodeau that there would be no exclusivity and that the agencies could lose their spaces at bidding time. The agencies then made a request through the Airport Commission that, in order to amortize their expenditures, that consideration be given to extending their leases five years (they would normally come up in two years). Ross told Council that he feels it is not good policy; and he considers it anti -competitive. Ross said that he and Randy Ernst feel strongly that the leases should go out for RFP when they lapse in two years. To review, Randy Ernst stated that car rental agency people came to the Airport Commission with a proposal to reduce the number of spaces at the airport from five to three, making the spaces larger. The only expense to the City would be putting in additional ceiling runners and some carpet patching. There are currently five year leases on the agencies that are up June 30, 1999. Dan Van Zee stated that the estimated cost of the project is between $8,000 and $10,000 total. Councilman Bookey stated he would like to see the City do the renovations itself. He said he isn't sure the agencies could get a return on their money in just two years. Ernst said he and the City Manager discussed this option and they compared it to the restaurant now being renovated in the airport. Ross reminded Council that this project was proposed by the vendor. He said the City wouldn't have planned to do the renovations. He said the option is "the status quo" until the leases expire. Councilman Moore asked what the history has been regarding the leasing of the spaces. Ernst said all of the leases were renewed with the exception of an additional agency that wanted to come in. At that time there was nothing to bid —everyone pays the same percentage. He said for one space they used a lottery system and drew names. Mayor Williams said the idea of reducing the number of vendors to three has been before Council in the past. Councilman Bannock stated that Council reduced the number of counter spaces NOT the number of agencies. The decision was made by adding square footage to what was already there because of space —and it was the vendors themselves who decided Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 9 of 15 there should be three vendors and three spaces. He said the Council agreed to the proposal based upon the fact that the vendors would pay for the renovations. Therefore, he said, the City has not changed its position on any of this issue. Bannock stated that to change the lease at this point is a bad idea and bad policy. He said that if Council does not want to change the leases the vendors may decide not to do the renovations, but that is a business decision only they can answer. Mayor Williams stated that he views a lease as something that can be re -negotiated between the parties. Williams asked for a motion. MOTION: Councilman Measles MOVED to accept the Airport Commission's proposal to extend the leases on the car rental agencies to five years following completion of the renovations and that the leases be expanded to include the new square footage added as a result of the renovation. Councilman Moore SECONDED the motion. Councilman Moore said he still has a problem with allowing the vendors to spend that kind of money on renovations without giving them a chance to recoup their investment. Councilman Bookey said at this point it is still their decision whether they want to spend that money. Councilman Smalley concurred with Councilman Bookey. Dan Van Zee spoke to the issue. He told Council they have three businesses at the Airport that have met their obligations, are current to the City and Borough, and are asking to lease additional space from the City at a time when business seems to be declining in Kenai. He said they are trying to go forward with confidence expanding their businesses and leasing very valuable space from the City. He said they are paying maybe 15 to 18 times what the average commercial space is worth in the City. Van Zee stated these are not "high flying" kinds of businesses —they are businesses that are struggling to survive. Auto expenses go up every year, but rental rates don't go up. He said the agencies are not asking anything from Council. He said they are willing to spend their own money to remodel and add value to the property; they only need time to recoup their investment. Van Zee stated there has been too much competition in the market, and Payless has pulled out so maybe the remaining vendors can possibily make it now. He asked that Council take a realistic look at these businesses and determine what the profitability is. "I don't think you understand the rental car business and I don't think anybody has taken the time to try to understand the rental car business," he said. He stated people think that the profitability in the rental car business is in renting cars, but that is just not true. He said that as the agencies rent out the cars they are building equity in an asset that they can later sell. Van Zee said that just a few years ago Council decided to "roll over" the leases without RFD's, and now this. He said it's confusing. Ernst said that when those leases were rolled over they were already up; these leases aren't up Kenai City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 10 of 15 for two more years. Williams said again that it is usual for leases to be renegotiated between parties. VOTE: Bookey: No Moore: Yes Measles: No Bannock: No Smalley: No Williams: Yes Motion FAILED. MOTION TO RECONSIDER: Councilman Smalley MOVED for reconsideration of this issue at the next meeting. Mayor Williams SECONDED the motion. Mayor Williams said, "We'll move it to the next meeting. " D-3. Harbor Commission Councilman Bookey reported that the BLM has said that the City cannot lease some of the property near the dock. He said that the Commission thought the City could do basically whatever they wanted to at the dock, but apparently there are significant restrictions. After some discussion, Council directed Administration to find out what is and is not allowed at the dock by the BLM and petition the BLM to remove those restrictions. Mayor Williams said then the Harbor Commission should take the issue to the Senate as an example of abrogation of states' rights by the federal government. Councilman Bookey stated the City needs to know what all the restrictions are on all the lands from BLM—not just at the immediate dock area. Councilman Bannock asked if it would make sense to hire someone to be at the dock to direct traffic and assist the boat launching. Councilman Bookey said the problem got much better later in the summer. Councilman Smalley said the rates are in the same range as on other Alaskan rivers. City Manager Ross said his only question on the rate change had to do with the seasonal pass which was suggested to change from $50 to $75. He said $60 would be better because the City wants to encourage seasonal passes to reduce the labor involved in collecting fees and handling money. The launch fee will be changed from $5 to $7, and the fees will be posted at the highway. D4. Library Commission Councilman Moore announced the next meeting is May 6, and they are still open on Sundays this month. Kenai Citv Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 1997 Page 11 of 15 D-5. Parks & Recreation Commission Councilman Bannock reported the Commission met two weeks ago; minutes are in the packet. Nate Kiel made a presentation to them about the ice rink, and the Commission supported the proposal unanimously. The Commission is asking Council's permission that on April 26 the KCHS after -prom group be allowed to use the Rec Center "gratis." MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED to allow the KCHS after -prom group to use the Kenai Rec Center at no charge for their after -prom function. Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion. No objections.

Introduced by Consent Agenda. H-6. Discussion - City of Kenai Fuel Supply City Manager Ross said Administration is asking for direction from Council as to whether the diesel fuel should be dispensed from the City tanks. Administration's proposal, he stated, is that the gasoline supply contract for the City be re -bid and that the City restore two of its present tanks at the City Yard to dispense diesel. Councilman Bookey said if the diesel goes out to bid, there is only one viable vendor for diesel in the area. But he said he supports taking the diesel back into City facilities and bidding the gasoline. Councilman Smalley said he is concerned about diesel on the ground. "It would be nice to get out of the fueling business because of the potential hazard." Councilman Bannock said he doesn't like the idea of the City being in the diesel business either, but he doesn't see any better option and would reluctantly support Administration's proposal. Bannock also asked about rack prices. City Manager Ross said his proposal is to bid the gasoline based on the Tesoro refinery price in Nikiski; every vendor in town except MAPCO bases their prices on that. Ross said that Tesoro's price is a fair standard to use. Council directed Administration to proceed per Ross' 3/26/97 memo. Councilman Smalley asked that ITEM J-1 be moved to here. There were no objections. J-1. DISCUSSION 1. Citizens: Alejah Devito from EDD spoke. She said EDD intends to go out to construction bid for the Business Innovation Center on Friday.

Airport Manager - On June 4 and 6, 1997 the DOT is holding their advanced airport and safety and operations specialists school in Anchorage. This a first in Alaska. Would the City of Kenai like to host the welcoming reception on the night of June 4? Ernst said many of the people attending this school would also be candidates for ARFF. He said he would like to do a purchase order taken from Airport contingency fund and move it to advertising for this event. Also, he said, he and Chief Burnett are on the agenda for the school program to give a report about the training center. Council agreed. ITEM J: DISCUSSION J-1. (moved to before Executive Session) J-2. Council Bookey - Nothing. Moore - Nothing. Measles - He will be absent from the first Council meeting in May. Bannock - Nothing. Smalley - The new bike paths are badly cracked. Many folks are out using the paths. Bob Frates said he has talked with George Church and the state is not going to maintain the path. Frates said his people could go ahead and sweep. Smalley said the walks are deteriorating rapidly. Also, in late August there will be a conference of mayors and AML board meeting in Kenai. The City may be asked to host a reception for may 50 or 60 people.

Steffy ECONOMIC FORUM UPDATE: Colleen Ward and Kathy Scott gave a brief update of plans for the Economic Forum to be held on Saturday, April 26, 1997 at the Kenai Senior Center. They reviewed the day's agenda as well as information to be presented by Williams. They noted their program would include presentations from various industries in the morning and break-out sessions for smaller group discussion in the afternoon. The city budget information was reviewed by council. Swarner suggested the sales tax amounts owed to the city should be included for additional information. Scott explained, initially the attendees would be divided into smaller groups including small/medium retail; commercial fishing, agriculture, forestry, mining and construction; insurance/real estate; general services; professional services; transportation, communications, public utilities; and public administration. Scott asked if council wanted the city employees to mix into the other groups, have their own group, or move about. Ross stated he would like the department heads who would be attending to have the ability to listen to the groups and move from group to group. Scott noted, because registration was up, there was some concern the cost for food would pass the not -to -exceed amount determined by the sponsor. She asked, if the cost is more, would council approve paying for the additional costs. She did not think an additional cost would be more than $200. Council had no objections to paying extra costs, if any. Scott asked if council wanted a summary of the findings from the forum mailed to all attendees. Answer was yes. KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 2 BUDGET DISCUSSION: LEGISLATIVE BUDGET: Kenai Chamber of Commerce Relocation Brochures: Laura Measles, Executive Director of the Kenai Chamber of Commerce discussed the Chamber's plan to update their relocation brochure. She explained, the Chamber Board wants to update the brochure and pay for the costs through purchases of advertising space in the brochure. The advertising space would be sold to members of the Chamber. Costs for different sized spaces would be $500, full page; $300, i page; $200, i page; $125, 1/8 page; and business card -sized space. She added, the Clarion (who will do the printing) and Chamber will not make any money from the project. She noted, for $1,000, the City could have a two -page ad, with a picture, and logo. The City's advertisement would be in the middle of the brochure. Measles asked council if they had any suggestions as to what should be included in the brochure. Bookey stated he would like the City and Chamber to build a tri-fold brochure together, aside from the ad for the relocation brochure. He asked if Measles thought the Chamber would be interested in going together and developing a folded brochure. Measles answered, if funding was available. She also requested a representative from the city to be involved with the development/updating of the relocation brochure. Council agreed to use the $5,000 (included in the Legislative budget) for the development of a joint brochure of the city and Chamber (a two or three -fold brochure). Also agreed was to spend $1,000 for a two -page advertisement to be included in the relocation brochure. Williams suggested the tri-fold brochure also be slipped into the relocation brochure. DIRECTION: Leave the $5,000 in 5041 for Chamber Brochure. Remove $15,000 for City Brochure from 4531. Leave in $3,000 in 4531 for updating the city video. Remove $1,000 from 5041 for Tourism Marketing Council dues. Add $2,000 at Miscellaneous for donation to Sears Elementary PTA for upgrade of playground equipment (see discussion at Beautification Budget). Parent Support Group - Councilwoman Swarner reported she had received a call from Representative Davis' office in regard to the Parent Support Group. Federal funding for the program would KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 3 be expiring in August. There was some controversy within the HSS in Juneau of how to fund the group. In all areas of the State, except Kenai, funding is done by grants. However, the program didn't get budgeted statewide. Habitat for Humanity, Water/Sewer Project - Williams explained the group had received a proposal to place the water/sewer lines for $52,000. Williams noted he would like to have the project go forward and asked if the project could be funded through the water/sewer enterprise fund contingency. This would be a way to fund the project without doing an LID. There could be 11 houses constructed in that area after putting in the water/sewer lines. Ross noted Administration's concern that the project would have to be paid Davis -Bacon wages as it would be a city project. The question was how the city could legally buy water/sewer lines through a donation. Measles noted he did not think money could be taken from the water/sewer fund and donate it to a non-profit to build the lines. A donation could be made from the General Fund. Williams noted Habitat projects are done all over the country and the work is always donated. He suggested Administration investigate how similar projects are built without the concerns of the Davis -Bacon wage issue. Attorney Graves stated he would investigate the matter. Williams added, the labor for Habitat projects is always donated. The cost is the materials. Ross April 8 memorandum - Ross referred to his April 8 memorandum and noted additional cuts in municipal assistance and lower sales taxes expected. Ross reviewed his recommendations to cut some cost from the budget (which were included in the memorandum): a. Exclude hire of a lobbyist - agreed by council at previous work session. b. ADA modifications to city buildings - drop the amount to $25,000 - fund the priority items over a three-year period. C. Consider the RIP and delete the Battalion Chief position from Fire Department personnel. d. Don't fill the next vacant police officer position. e. Don't fund the personnel officer position and handle personnel matters between Kim Howard, Finance Director, Ross and Attorney Graves. Ross also stated department heads would have to justify filling future position vacancies and cap the health costs and stay KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 4 within the amount budgeted. He added, he will assign an employee group in the fall to work on a health care package. Those employees will not be department heads. Ross stated there may be one or two other employees to be recommended for the RIP, but would not be budgetary issues. RIPping two positions would save approximately $160,000 a year in personnel costs. Councilman Moore noted his concern that positions may be RIPPed, but then in a few years, with the ARFF developed, additional staff may be rehired -- the savings would be lost. Ross stated there would still be a savings on the salary. He added, the ARFF will not be a General Fund project and was supposed to be self- supporting. Williams stated he agreed the easiest way to lower the budget would be to cut personnel. He added, he thought it would be a better approach to ask for volunteers as he did not want to force anyone into taking the RIP. Ross stated that had been done. He added, if the Battalion Chief chooses not to take the RIP, a Captain has stepped forward and said he would volunteer. Ross noted, no one was in a lay-off position. He also noted, there was no capital equipment included in this budget and no COLA. Ross stated, the duties of the Battalion Chief would be absorbed into the remaining staff of the Fire Department. Smalley stated he saw the RIP as a voluntary measure and it could be effective in both the Fire and Police Departments. He added, the position would not be deleted. Ross added, he did not want to make up the costs (in the budget) by removing office supplies, travel, etc. Council agreed that shouldn't be done. Williams added, he wanted the deletion of personnel made under the best possible circumstances, using proper judgment. Williams asked if council agreed with the recommendations of included in Ross' memorandum with the caveats stated. Swarner stated she believed the City needed a personnel officer, but would look at it again in six months. Ross noted, the networking of city offices would not be recommended this year because of the labor involved. DIRECTION: Follow through with recommendations made in April 8, 1997 Ross memorandum (with caveats stated). KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 5 BREAK TAKEN: 8:35 P.M. BACK TO WORK: 8:46 P.M. CLERK BIIDGET: Councilmen Moore and Smalley referred to discussions made during the last evaluation of Clerk in which council agreed to a two- step increase in salary. The second step should be reflected in the budget and would bring the salary to $54,411. Williams stated he recalled the discussion. Ross noted he and Semmens would not have been privy to that discussion, but would review the minutes. Clerk Freas stated she would supply the minutes. Clerk Freas noted the only big change in her budget was a $5,000 increase in Professional Services for the planned increase of contract secretarial services. DIRECTION: There were no changes to the Clerk budget (excepting the discussion in regard to salary). Budget approved. LEGAL BUDGET: Attorney Graves noted he spent considerably less than anticipated in Professional Services in regard to Inlet Woods litigation. He added, council could cut some there if needed. Council agreed the amount budgeted should be left as it is in case there was a need. Bookey questioned the $5,000 for bond counsel. Graves explained the amount was included in anticipation of the senior project. DIRECTION: There were no changes. Budget approved. CITY MANAGER BUDGET: Ross noted the salary and benefits would be reduced about $60,000. The salary estimated for the next city manager was included at $90,000. He added, the auto allowance had been negotiated in the past, but in this budget, it was included at the Code -allowed amount ($30 a month). If the position is advertised in the fall, there should be enough savings in the personnel account to allow latitude in negotiating a car allowance. Ross also noted the travel budget was lower and miscellaneous was lower. KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 6 DIRECTION: There were no changes. Budget approved. FINANCE DEPARTMENT BUDGET: Finance Director Semmens noted the budget was $30,000 higher than last year, however $17,000 of the increase would disappear as it was linked to costs in regard to the personnel off icer changes. He added, his travel budget was increased but believed the increase was justified. Semmens added, the $5,300 in the 8064 account would be removed as it too was linked to the personnel officer changes. Semmens explained the decision for not going forward with the networking was because the quote was $98,000 which would not include the wiring costs. $110,000 was estimated to do the whole project, but did not include the cost for maintaining the network. There was no one on staff available for maintaining the network. In order to maintain a network, a staff person would have to be hired or the work contracted out. Williams suggested specifications be established for purchasing of any new computers in order to ensure all new computers purchased will be compatible with any future network system. DIRECTION: Remove amounts in salaries and 8064 linked to the Personnel officer changes. Budget approved. LAND ADMINISTRATION BUDGET: DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. NON -DEPARTMENTAL BUDGET: Semmens explained the transfers in non -departmental are from debt services on Inlet Woods. Grants to agencies are pass-throughs and could fluctuate. Also, it was found that the city was under - insured in some areas. Those amounts have been brought in line with replacement costs. Semmens stated he would like to investigate JIA insurance as an alternative for insurance for the city. He added, he believes there would be benefits to the city for belonging to JIA beyond the price of insurance. There were no council objections. KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 7 DIRECTION: semmens is to check 4536 the amount of Expended & Encumbered. quotes from JIA. Budget approved. PLANNING & ZONING BUDGET: as there may be a mistake in He is also to get insurance City Engineer Jack La Shot noted the biggest change in the budget was the $30,000 included in Professional Services for a new Comprehensive Plan. This amount would be used to match funds from the Borough to develop a Comprehensive Plan as the Borough has done for Homer and Soldotna. Ross noted, the $30,000 does not have to be spent this year, but can be encumbered. A professional planner would be developing the Comprehensive Plan. DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. SAFETY BUDGET: DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. KENAI POLICE DEPARTMENT: Chief Morris explained the biggest change in his budget was due to funding included for a new records management system for police records. They are unable to receive maintenance/parts for their present Kodak system. They received a list of vendors for other systems and found an average amount for a new system is $61,600. They are also requesting to purchase three personal computers to replace dumb terminals now used with the old system. The new computers will be needed to access the new records system. Morris also noted an increase in professional services due to increases in rape examinations. DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. COMMUNICATIONS BUDGET: Chief Morris explained the biggest change is for the logging recorder. The present equipment has had lots of down times, parts are unavailable, and it is ten years old. This purchase was discussed during last year's budget hearings. Cost was higher then -- prices for the equipment has come down. Bookey asked if the purchase of four personal computers was necessary. Morris answered, they will move the computers now in KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 8 Dispatch to other parts of the building, replacing the dumb terminals. The new computers will be a needed upgrade. DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. ANIMAL CONTROL BUDGET: Chief Morris noted the biggest increase was for utilities. If the new shelter is built, they estimated an increase of $7,000 for utilities. DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. FIRE DEPARTMENT BUDGET: Fire Chief Burnett explained the budget was higher in personnel, but down in maintenance and operation. There was also an increase in operation/repair supplies to cover costs to purchase fire retardant uniforms. There was a decrease in maintenance and operations as there are less air bottles needing to be replaced. Transportation costs were decreased as most travel in regard to ARFF has been completed. Burnett explained overtime may increase if staff is decreased by one. DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. PUBLIC WORKS ADMINISTRATION BUDGET: Public Works Director Kornelis explained the budget was decreased approximately $25,000. Costs for scanning blueprints was decreased to $4,000. Professional Services will be lower this year (last year's budget included funding for the ADA survey). Kornelis added, funds were included in Machinery & Equipment for a printer for the autocad. DIRECTION: No changes. Printer for autocad is to be a color printer, but no increase made in budget for the printer (other than what was already included). Budget approved. STREETS BUDGET: Kornelis explained the budget was decreased by $7,000. Council questioned what amount was included for dust control. Kornelis stated $38,000. Williams noted Cinderella, Princess, etc. were in need of dust control now and requested the Department keep an eye on their condition. KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 9 DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. STREET LIGHTING BUDGET• Kornelis explained, $10,000 was placed in this budget for new street lights. He has a list of requests, one of which was from Karen Koester (copy included in council information) to place a light at Setnet in the VIP Subdivision. Council discussed this light last year during budget time. Williams suggested they go ahead with placing that light. Kornelis stated he would like to forward his request list (14 lights) to HEA for a cost estimate and bring that information back to council later in the summer. Lights to be added would be chosen at that time. Williams suggested council address the issue of new street lights next year. DIRECTION: No changes. Budget approved. SHOP BUDGET: It was noted $16,000 needed to be added to.4538 for repair of the 966 loader. The repairs would be made instead of purchasing a new loader. DIRECTION: Add $16,000 at 4538 for repair of 966 loader, budget approved. BUILDINGS BUDGET: City Engineer La Shot noted the ADA contingency should be decreased to $25,000. Repairs mandated by ADA will be made over the next two to three years. Building Official Springer explained the changing of lighting ballasts on the apparatus bay at the Fire Department was being mandated by the federal government. Halide lighting will be put in place which will save $7,000 in electricity costs. This will also be done at the library. DIRECTION: Decrease 8062, ADA Contingency to $25,000. Budget approved. LIBRARY BUDGET: Librarian DeForest explained the 3M entry station will be ADA approved. She also noted a ten -hour -a -week employee would be lost due to the loss of a federal grant (this employee worked KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 10 with Wildwood Correctional Facility). Swarner stated she thought the Library budget should be increased to keep the ten -hour -a - week employee. She noted, fine costs had been increased which could help pay for the person. Discussion followed in regard to Sunday hours. DIRECTION: No changes made. Budget approved. RECREATION DEPARTMENT BUDGET: Recreation Director Frates noted there could be adjustments made to his budget in the fall in regard to hours of use at the Rec Center. They have been tracking the use, types of use, etc. and will use the information to cut some expenses. He noted the biggest expense for the Rec Center is public services. They are up to $6,000. They include ski trips, etc. This year they will charge a fee to reimburse the city. DIRECTION: No changes made. Budget approved. PARRS DEPARTMENT BUDGET: Frates noted costs were included to place a restroom at Beaver Creek. It was found that it would cost approximately $40,000 to move the Cunningham house to downtown and was cut from the budget. Williams requested Administration to send a letter to the owner explaining why the city didn't want the building (cost restraints, etc.) in order for the owner to go forward with disposal of the building. Frates noted funds were included in the budget to place a drinking fountain at the Memorial Park. DIRECTION: Place riding lawn mower in Parks budget, removing it from Beautification budget (see discussion at Beautification budget). Budget approved. BEAUTIFICATION BUDGET: It was noted the riding mower listed at 8064 in this budget should be included at 8064 in the Parks budget instead. Williams noted the PTA at Sears Elementary was collecting funds to purchase new playground equipment for the school. They are needing to raise $21,000, have raised $7,000, and will be asking the Borough to donate $7,000. Williams requested council to include a donation of $2,000 for this purpose to offset the cost of the upgrade of playground equipment at Sears Elementary KENAI CITY COUNCIL BUDGET WORK SESSION APRIL 24, 1997 PAGE 11 School. Council had no objections. The $2,000 should be included in the Legislative, Miscellaneous account. Frates requested $3,750 be added to the Beautification budget for the purchase of 30 additional banners. He explained, the Committee and banner makers had suggested 30 banners be purchased every year in order to change out 30 used ones (each year). Williams suggested 30 additional banners be purchased this year only. DIRECTION: Add $3,750 to the Beautification Budget at 2024, Small Tools & Equipment for the purchase of 30 additional banners. Place purchase of riding lawn mower in Parks budget and remove it from Beautification budget. Also, add $2,000 to the Legislative Miscellaneous account for a donation to the Sears Elementary PTA to go toward the upgrade of playground equipment at the school.

Freas, City Clerk Memorandum Date: 04/11 /97 To: Richard A. Ross, City Manager From: Marilyn Kebschull, Administrative Assistant RE: AIRPORT COMMISSION The Airport Commission voted to proceed with their original recommendation regarding the car rental space leases. The Commission's recommendation is that the leases be extended five years after the renovation is complete and that the leases include the new square footage as result of the renovation. Does Council approve of re -writing the rental car leases after the renovation of those spaces?

Memorandum To: Kenai Airport Commission From: Randy Ernst, Airport Manager Date: April 2, 1997 Subject: Rewriting Car Rental Agency Contracts after Renovations The City Manager, City Attorney and I reviewed the car rental proposal which the Airport Commission recommended to the City Council for approval. The City Administration concluded that it would not be prudent to rewrite the car rental contracts extending the term of the contracts for five years after completion of the proposed renovation of the car rental counter spaces. It is recommended the present contract remain in effect with an amendment to the leases noting the change in square footage and subsequent increase in lease rate. The Administration would like the Commission to reconsider its recommendation. A letter is being send to the car rental agencies with this modification to their proposal.

NEW BUSINESS Airport Commission April 10, 1997 Page 2 March 6, 1997 Mr. Tom Thibodeau Kenai Airport Council 210 Fidalgo Ave. #200 Kenai, AK 99611-7794 Res Kenai Municipal Airport Car Rental Counters Dear Mr. Thibodeau: Thank you for allowing the current on -airport car rental companies the opportunity to address our concerns and ideas for the Kenai Airport car rental counters. As long standing tenants of the airport we feel the proposal as outlined below will benefit both the City of Kenai by increased revenue and stabilizing tenant turnover, and the car rental companies by providing more space in which to operate. Our proposal for the car rental counters is outlined below: 1) Upon mutual agreement between the City of Kenai and the current car rental companies cancel the existing counter lease 2) The car rental companies, at our expense, will pay to have the counters altered from the current six spaces to three spaces as outlined in the attached. All work would be approved by the Airport Manager and be com- pleted under the scope of a certified and bonded general contractor. Please refer to diagrams and cost estimates enclosed. 3) Through mutual agreement between the City and the car rental companies rewrite the counter, leases for a mini- mum of five years on the neew counters. We understand that our annual rent will increase due to the increased footage we will be using in the terminal_ We also understand that at the end of the newly negotiated lease period, any improvements, such as the above described work, becomes the sole interest of the City. We feel this proposal accomplishes many things. It allows the City to lease vacant space (thus increase their revenue), it allows the car rental companies a larger space for our operations, it will be aesthetically pleasing as the airport will look occupied instead of partially empty, and it will not block the airport's ability to increase the number of car rental counters in the future should demand warrant it. u` KAR 1997 CZ o: +'stdi /O' yy e .

CITY OF KENAI Attn: Council Members Mayor John Williams , 210 Fidalgo Street Kenai, AK 99611 RE: AIRPORT COUNTER REMODEL SUPWWL00V&= 4W. hWV RENTAL CAR INDUSTRY LEASES W' KA*W, AW/w 99671 As a municipal airport business, I have been following the Council and Airport Commission's actions over the past six months since we made our request. It is my understanding that the City's administration has voiced concerns regarding extension of the existing leases as recommended by the Advisory Airport Commission. As a small businessowner, recent events in the Kenai business community, have made me question whether I was wise to try fighting the trend and continue to invest and expand my enterprise in Kenai. Since purchasing the Hertz franchise in 1992, I have been able to expand my business to two other Peninsula locations and purchase my "city lease land" and make investments in improvements there. However, I began to feel I was trying to "stem the flow" of business away from the City of Kenai. Specifically, in the past year, Alyeska Sales and Service has determined it no longer had confidence in the Kenai market. Payless Rent A Car ceased operation and Ford Motor Corporation made a decision in February that they would no longer finance the rental car fleet of the two locally owned car rental agencies, and turned down our requests for SLS million of Ford Product, because we could no longer present a strong enough balance sheet for them to continue in the Kenai area, despite the fact the rental businesses had considerable years of affiliation and prompt payment history. Several long-standing businesses have recently closed their doors and moved from the City. Yet, we are willing to invest our money with an optimistic view towards the future. We want to expand our businesses, provide more service to the public, and lease more space from the City. We want to confidently be part of the City's strategy, "to move into the 21st century as a responsible partner in the development of a healthy, vital and enterprising community.", as per Mayor John Williams letter of April 3rd. We are asking you to approve the Airport Commission's recommendation to allow the car rental agencies to go forward with the renovation and to extend the existing leases for five years. By doing so, this partnership will allow us to recoup our investment in renovation estimated to be between $8,000 - $10,000 over the time period. As this "space" is the first impression of the City of Kenai, the renovation will change the half -empty, languishing look to one of a vital, energetic enterprising community. This renovation will not result in any expense to the City and will stabilize three local businesses that employ approximately 20 individuals. Additionally, the "public's asset" will have increased in value due to our efforts and investment. Three years ago the same Council, Mayor, City Attorney, Airport Administration and Airport Commission determined it was within their authority to rewrite the counter leases, reinstating the existing entities. We ask that you continue this precedent and go forward in partnership with us to a brighter, more vital future in the City of Kenai. pectful 4 DanVan Zee HERTZ RENT A C 325 Airport Way Kenai, AK 9%11 Merlrreats FaFft avail oteW fie cars PA' NTS OVER $2,500.00 WHICH NEED COUNCIL APPROVAL CO.

Dear Mayor, Council Members, and Sta$ The Continuum Corporation(rCC) requests a one year extension for construction of Autumn Court. Additional time is required to meet increased equity requirements. The failure of Homer's assisted living facility prejudiced financial sources against investment in this project Federal and state programs also denied access to their lending programs. TCC and Robbins' Retirement Communities plan an additional cash infusion to satisfy commercial lenders via private placement stock offering. Extension of the lease provides time for completion of this strategy. Conduit bond financing is an integral component of this plan. TCC intends to submit a formal request for a City Council sponsored inducement resolution for a tax-exempt conduit bond when all financial components are in place. We must not lose sight of our original intent: the care of elderly, who need assistance with life's daily challenges. We are within view of our goal.

Wade ' (202) 208-3983 LEASE SALE 149 IN COOK INLET TO PROCEED The U.S. Department of the Interior's Minerals Management Service (MMS) announced today it will proceed with federal Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lease Sale 149, Cook Inlet. The final Notice of Sale will be issued in the Federal Register next week. The sale will be held on June 11, 1997. 'The decision to proceed with the sale was made after we considered all comments received from fishing groups, natural gas and oil companies, industry support companies, environmental organizations, State and local governments, and numerous local residents" said MMS Director Cynthia Quarterman. A number of protective measures have also been developed to address concerns raised during MMS's consultations with constituency groups. The area of the sale offering includes 101 whole and partial blocks encompassing about 430,000 acres. This is an approximate 78 percent reduction from the area originally analyzed in the environmental impact statement. The original area under consideration was 402 blocks covering about 2 million acres. MMS met numerous times with affected communities throughout the pre -lease process, which began in 1991. The MMS has also invested approximately $2.6 million on environmental and socio-economic studies exclusive to the Cook Inlet planning area, including a water quality study conducted in cooperation with the University of Alaska. The Cook Inlet proposed sale area is located in Federal waters between Kalgin Island in the north and to the southern extent of state owned offshore leased area north of Anchor Point. The southern boundary of the proposed sale area is about 15 miles north of the entrance to Kachemak Bay. This area was previously offered in 1977 and 1981. The 1977 offering included all of the lower Cook Inlet, and the 1981 offering included all of lower Cook Inlet and tracts in Shelikof Strait. As a result of the previous offerings, MMS issued 100 leases on which companies drilled 13 exploration wells. 04/17/97 13:16 '29072716565 MKS RE 2 003/004 Those leases have expired and the exploration wells have been plugged and abandoned_ There was also a 1982 offering, however no leases were issued. Copies of the final Notice of Sale are available from the Minerals Management Service, Alaska OCS Region, $49 East 36th Avenue Room 308, Anchorage, Alaska 99508-4302. Copies may be requested by calling (907) 271-6070 or 1-800-764-2627, by fax at (907) 271-6805, or via E:mail at akwebmaster@smtp.mms.gov. The MMS is the federal agency that manages the Nation's natural gas, oil and other mineral resources on the OCS, and collects, accounts for, and disburses about $4 billion yearly in revenues from offshore federal mineral leases and onshore mineral leases on federal and Indian lands. -MMS- MMS's Website Address: http:itwww.mms.gov 24 Hour Fax -on -Demand Service: 202-219-1703 Editors Note: Copies of the Federal Register Notice of Sale will be posted on the MMS website. 04/17/97 13:16 '09072716565 MIS RE 2 004/004 m 5s Y 59 I."

Your help is needed now before the legislative majority imposes poorly considered and ill-advised budget cuts on Alaskans to meet an arbitrary budget target. Keeping Alaska's budget within Alaska's means is important. That's why two years ago Governor Knowles committed to reducing the budget by $100 million over three years to help eliminate the budget gap. Already we are within 90% of reaching that goal. By contrast, the legislative majority set an arbitrary target of cutting $250 million over five years without even looking at what that meant to services Alaskans depend on. Many of the cuts they have proposed so far will damage or eliminate important state services — from road maintenance to fish and game management, to safely guarding Alaska's growing number of prisoners. Facing increasing public outcry over these service cuts, majority legislators are looking for ways to get to their arbitrary $60 million without giving the public much notice or information on what that really means. For example, the House majority "saves" $7.6 million by refusing to fund, or allow payment of, cost -of -living increases in the second year of three-year contracts which were negotiated with state workers and approved by the legislature last spring. The Senate allows for payment of these cost -of -living increases, but doesn't fund them. Instead they tell departments to absorb the costs without telling the public what additional services will be cut. All this really means is more cuts to services — for instance, $680,000 less for Public Safety, and $1 million less each for Transportation and Corrections on top of the cuts already made to agency services. Many budget decisions will be made in the next 10 days. Now is the time to let your legislators know how you feel about their cuts to programs and services for Alaskans.

This meets his commitment to help close the budget gap by cutting the budget $100 million over three years. Budget cuts are necessary, but the House and Senate Majority are proposing large cuts on top of cuts already made by the Governor. Many of these are irresponsible and jeopardize the health and economy of Alaska. What challenges does the Governor's budget address? • Highest child abuse rate in the nation. • More domestic violence than any other state. • Prison system filled over emergency capacity every day. • New crime bills without enough funds for troopers, corrections, prosecutors, etc. • More fire deaths per capita than any other state. How would Majority budget cuts hurt efforts toward safe communities? - Jeopardizes public safety with a $6 million cut to the Corrections budget even though there are 20% more inmates now than in 1993, dangerously overcrowded prisons and tougher crime laws that need to be enforced. • Eliminates violent offender prison beds that could be paid for with new federal funds. • Reduces prosecution of crimes in Fairbanks and Anchorage. (House) • Hurts efforts to combat domestic violence by wiping out the Govemor's proposed increase in state funds for the Council on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. - Reduces proposed funding for Village Public Safety Officers in communities that don't have an officer now. • Cuts firefighter training for small communities and others by $100,000 even though they are willing to pay for it. This program has helped cut fire deaths 75% over the past 20 years. • Leaves some victims of violent crimes without the compensation they're owed. • Puts people out on the street by eliminating all rental assistance for the very poorest Alaskans, a program in place since territorial days. (House) - Eliminates training for 24 new corrections officers. #82::3 PAGE: 3/5 Proposed House and Senate Majority Budget Cuts for FY98: Impact on Children and Families Governor Knowles' proposed FY98 budget made more than $40 million of cuts to agencies and programs in order to absorb increases in school enrollment, other formula programs, inflation and employee costs.

(House) • Eliminates all rental assistance for the very poorest Alaskans, a program in place since territorial days. (House) • Cuts grants that help keep child care safe and affordable (House) and hurts welfare reform by cutting $800,000 to $1 million from child care programs. • Reduces targeted job training for welfare recipients even though training investments are necessary for families to shift from welfare to work. • Cuts $2.5 million from the University. • Hurts child abuse prevention efforts of the highly successful Healthy Families program • Reduces the Governors budget for juvenile probation services by almost $600,000 which was targeted for innovative community -based programs to reduce juvenile crime. • Cuts some $300,000 from Child Support Enforcement efforts which would be used to collect over $8 million on behalf of 2,000 Alaska children • Jeopardizes our most vulnerable seniors by reducing Adult Protective Services and licensing of assisted living programs. • Reduces federal funds for innovative community programs to solve children's health and education problems with local solutions. v�-vi ni n i�� iJJI iFOG11J t'Hl�t• �-4/J Proposed House and Senate Majority Budget Cuts for FY98: Impact on Rural Alaska Governor Knowles' proposed FY98 budget made more than $40 million of cuts to agencies and programs in order to absorb increases in school enrollment, other formula programs, inflation and employee costs.

Allows polluters to violate the law by reducing the environmental crimes unit 14%. (House) • Stalls oil, mining, timber and other projects requiring land leases, permits or rights -of -way. Forces some development activities to work under federal EPA jurisdiction. (House) • A $1.7 million cut in fisheries management will mean less information and staff, necessitating more conservative, less precise management. This results in lost fishing opportunity for commercial, personal use, sport, and subsistence users. Together with cuts to the Commissioner's Office, this also reduces Alaska's effectiveness in Pacific Salmon Treaty negotiations and North Pacific Fisheries Management Council decisions. (Senate) • Limits the public's participation in fish and wildlife management by eliminating five regional fish and game coordinators. (Senate) • Reduces mining, geological surveys, land and other development activities, resulting in project delays and loss of critical resource data (Senate) • Jeopardizes the safety and economic viability of rural utility systems by reducing training and business management services. • Prevents many seafood processors from selling their products in interstate or foreign markets by cutting out a seafood inspector. (House) • Closes access to 8 state campgrounds, leaves 4 other parks with no services and cancels plans to open 5 new park units. (House) • Jeopardizes $15-20 million in federal highway and airport funds. (Senate) • Reduces funding for operation and management of the Alaska Marine Highway. • Chits of almost $400,000 from subsistence will encourage federal takeover of fish and game management, eliminate research necessary for development of ANWR and NPR -A, and reduce information needed by boards of fisheries and game, resulting in lost hunting and fishing opportunities for all Alaskans.

Alaska In my capacity as Assistant Director Alaska Hire, External Affairs, with BP Exploration Alaska, I have had the opportunity to work directly with Mayor John Williams, City of Kenai, and Kenai Fire Chief David Burnett. The results of their efforts to bring world -class fire training facilities to Alaska have been impressive. Of significant interest to us is the fact that the City of Kenai is willing to invest $2.6 million of its own funds to develop the Aircraft Rescue & Fire Training Center (ARF). That portion of the facility is scheduled for ground breaking around June 15, 1997. We at BP Exploration Alaska believe the City of Kenai's efforts will prove to be extremely valuable to the State by providing world -class training for airport firefighters and, potentially, industrial fire brigades and structural firefighters. Equally important is the emphasis the facility's design places on distant learning for rural communities. We strongly encourage the State to support the City of Kenai's efforts to build this facility and, in particular, to build an industrial fire training facility within the ARF compound. This latter capability will allow oil, mining, and other industrial fire brigades to be trained in -state and to provide the Kenai Peninsula with new sources of tourism and related support revenues.

Ross City Manager From:,01 Daniel 'Morris Chief of Police Date: April -' 1, 1997 Subject: 1996 Police Activities Report Attached is the Annual Police Activities Report for 1996. The report includes statistics for a three year period (1994-1996) for comparison purposes. During 1996 there was a .5% decrease in calls for service and a 2.7% decrease in reported crimes. Juvenile arrests were up 35% from 1995, with the bulk of the increase being Part II offenses. This increase is attributable in part to an enforcement emphasis on alcohol law violations. During 1997 there will be an increase in traffic enforcement as a result of a Highway Safety grant for officer overtime. The decrease in calls for service and overall reported crimes is partly due to being down one officer last year. Part III crimes. which include traffic offenses and warrant arrests, are directly related to patrol time and traffic enforcement. During 1997 we will strive to increase traffic enforcement while continuing to successfully investivate crimes. DLM:hT 1996 POLICE ACTIVITIES REPORT REQUEST FOR POLICE SERVICES/INVESTIGATIONS Requests for police services decreased .5% in 1996. Criminal offenses represented 38% of the total request for services. The historical average is 40%. Service Requests 1994 1995 1996 6548 6629 6591 1 CRIMINAL OFFENSES Criminal offense statistics are separated into three categories. These categories correspond with the system used by the State of Alaska and the Federal Uniform Crime Reporting System (UCR). Part I Offenses: Homicide, rape, robbery, assaults, burglary, larceny and vehicle theft. 1994 1995 1996 715 753 721 The majority of Pan I crimes investigated in 1996 were property crimes. Part I crimes decreased 4% between 1995 and 1996. Thefts and domestic assaults remained about the same as 1995. Reported rapes, burglaries, and assaults were down, while arrests for burglary and assault were up. Part II Offenses: Arson, fraud, vandalism, drugs. DWI, disorderly conduct and sex offenses (other than rape). 1994 1995 1996 1331 1416 1436 This category represents over half of all reported crime. There was a 1.4% increase in Part II crimes between 1995 and 1996. Part III Offenses: Criminal traffic offenses (except DWI) and warrants. 1994 1995 1996 481 458 371 As noted above, there was a 19% decrease in 1996. Total Parts I. II. III: 1994 1995 1996 2527 2600 2528 The total reported crimes in 1996 decreased 2.7% 1996 POLICE ACTIVITIES REPORT 2 Table 2 reflects the number of arrests and categories of crime. Arrests are not always an accurate measure of activity for the following reasons: I. One arrest can clear multiple offenses. 2. Multiple arrests can clear one crime. 3. Warrants issued for an offense committed in Kenai and served in another jurisdiction are not counted. 4. Warrant arrests made by Kenai Police for offenses committed elsewhere are included in the Part III category. In 1996 there were 1115 arrests, compared to 1027 in 1995. During 1996, there was an increase in Pan II crime arrests of 37%. The crimes with the largest increase were drug crime arrests, which were up 82%, and liquor law violations, which went up 48%. Juvenile arrests for liquor law violations were up 50% from 1995. In April 1996, the department concluded an undercover drug operation which resulted in 12 defendants being charged with multiple drug offenses. This operation was in cooperation with the Alaska State Troopers drug unit in Soldotna. Due to the community's interest in crimes committed by juveniles, the following statistics are included; these numbers reflect the percent of total arrests which were committed by juveniles: Crimes 1980 1994 1995 1996 All 28% 26% 23% 30% Burglary 50% 66% 100% Larceny 52% 499/6 51 Drugs 45% 33% 40% Liquor Laws 42% 39% 39% Vandalism 50% 63% 65% A total of 335 juveniles were arrested in 1996, compared to 248 in 1995, and 227 in 1994. 1996 POLICE ACTIVITIES REPORT TRAFFIC COLLISIONS 1994 1995 1996 Traffic Collisions 379 334 354 Injuries Reported 80 67 95 Collisions «/moose 23 64 In 1996, accidents collisions increased 6% when compared to 1995. Motor vehicle collisions resulting in injuries were up 41% from 1995. 3 Traffic collisions and resulting injuries are impacted by several factors. Factors include weather, road conditions, traffic density, traffic law enforcement and seatbelt use. There were no fatal traffic collisions in 1996. TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT 1994 1995 1996 Verbal warnings 3020 3646 2815 Citations 1062 1665 1110 DWI 96 96 106 Other traffic arrests (reckless driving, 275 249 227 hit & run. suspended license) Total Enforcement Contacts 4453 5656 4258 In 1996, traffic enforcement contacts decreased 24%. The increase in 1995 was partially a result of a State Highway Safety grant which funded officer overtime for traffic enforcement. COMMUNITY PROGRAMS 9•, The Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D-A.RE.) program continues to receive support from the children, parents, teachers, and administrators involved in the program. The Youth Services officer presents the program to six 5th grade classes at Mountain View Elementary School. The program teaches the children how to resist drugs and other illegal activity. Approximately 25 to 30 percent of the Youth Services officer's time is spent with the D.A_R-E. program. In the fall of 1995, the department began instructing a follow-up D-kR.E. program to the 7th grade students at the Kenai Middle School. This program reinforces lessons taught at the 5th grade level. 1996 POLICE ACTIVITIES REPORT 4 Police Explorers In 1993 the Kenai Chapter of the Alaska Peace Officers Association started a Police Explorers program in cooperation with the Boy Scouts. Local high school students interested in law enforcement careers participate in the program. Officers from the Kenai and Soldotna Police Departments and the Alaska State Troopers provide the training and coordinate the program. After the students complete the basic training, thev are able to assist local police agencies with minor tasks. Neighborhood Watch During 1995, people in the East Aliak area contacted Kenai Police Department requesting assistance in addressing neighborhood crime issues. Irenai Police Department officers presented the Neighborhood Watch Program to the group and they decided the program would benefit them. Several meetings were conducted with officers presenting crime prevention information. The group purchased several Neighborhood Watch signs which were posted around their neighborhood. The program is an excellent forum to educate people about protecting themselves, their families, and their property. Other Programs During 1996 officers have provided crime prevention presentations on a variety of subjects including home security, robbery prevention, drug use, motor vehicle laws and bicycle safety. In 1996 officers served on the advisory boards of the Women's Resource Crisis Center, Drug Free Schools Committee, Domestic Violence Task Force, E-911 advisory board, Kids Stuff' committee, Kenai Care Center, statewide law enforcement committees, and Kenai Youth Court. A mutually beneficial working relationship exists between the police department and the educational/social service providers in the community. COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT The communications department provides critical services to the police and fire departments. Their duties include: answering emergency and administrative calls for public safety; radio operation for public safety and public works; data entry; typing all written and taped reports, interviews and interrogations; use of the state and national crime computer systems and monitoring water and sewer alarm systems. The communications department employs 8 personnel including the dispatch supervisor. It usually takes 3-6 months to train a new dispatcher to function on their own. 1996 POLICE ACTIVITIES REPORT 5 SUMMARY In 1996, demands for police services were practically unchanged from 1995. As the population of the surrounding areas increase, we will see a continuing increase in highway traffic and a related increase in traffic accidents. We will continue seeing an increased need for traffic enforcement competing with an increasing need to use resources to successfully investigate crime. In 1997, the Kenai Police Department and Communications Department will continue to strive to provide the best possible services to the citizens of Kenai and remain responsive to community needs.

COUNCIL FYI ITEMS TONY KNOWLES GOVERNOR Alaska Municipal League 217 Second Street, Suite 200 Juneau, AK 99801 yort� N� STATE OF ALASKA OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR JUNEAU April 23, 1997 Dear Alaska Municipal League Members: P.O. BOX 110001 Juneau, Alaska 99811-0001 (90) 465-35M Fax (907) 465-3532 RECEIVED APR 2 8 1997 KENAI CITY CLERK, It was gratifying to see such strong support for responsible state budgeting from Alaska's elected officials while you were meeting in Juneau. I know you share my frustration at the legislative majority's insistence on an arbitrary $60 million cut on top of the $40 million already absorbed in my FY98 budget. As your resolutions note, many of these cuts simply shift the burden to local governments. In putting together my budget plan for next year, I made some difficult agency cuts in order to fully fund the school foundation formula, pupil transportation, maintain the $15 million appropriation for the Capital Matching Grants program, and keep the reduction in municipal assistance/revenue sharing to a very modest $1.9 million. Overall, state aid to communities increased in my budget. The criteria you outlined for evaluation of budget cuts are sensible and fair. Although your resolution urges me not to approve certain budget reductions, unfortunately a governor's line item budget power does not extend to vetoing legislative reductions. I also agree the $60 million budget target should be modified if the resulting service reductions are not in the best interest of our mutual constituents, the residents of Alaska's communities. I believe Alaska's mayors and council members can be a powerful voice urging the legislative majority to moderate its arbitrary budget targets. Please speak directly to your legislators in the next few days. Let them know you are gravely concerned about their proposed cuts and that you will be supportive of their willingness to adjust their budget target to a more responsible level. Sincerely. T n r owles Governor 1 TONYKNOWLES, GOVERNOR 2221 E. NORTHERN LIGHTS, ROOM 128 ANCHORAGE, ALASKA 99508-4149 PHONE.

The following information provides a brief outline of some of the critical changes that may affect municipal candidates and your city or borough. Section 15.13.145 deals specifically with municipalities, school districts, and regional educational attendance areas. In brief, money held by the entities above may not be used to influence the outcome of an election of a candidate to state or municipal office or a ballot proposition. The only exceptions arise when the money is used to "disseminate information about the time and place of an election ... "; "to provide the public with nonpartisan information ... or in the case of a ballot proposition, "if the funds have been specifically appropriated for that purpose by a state law or a municipal ordinance...". For more detail please refer to this section in the statute. Section 15.13.040 states that a candidate seeking office may exempt themselves from the Campaign Disclosure reporting requirement if they raise or spend no more then $2,500. In the past, the threshold was $1,000. A person planning to use this exemption must decide when he/she is filing for office that he/she will not raise or spend more than $2,500 (including his/her own money) during the course of the campaign. In the past, there were criminal sanctions for failing to file a timely exemption form. Under the new law, the Commission has the ability to assess up to $50 a day for a late exemption form. Section 15.13.050 states that a candidate seeking office must register with the Commission before making expenditures. A candidate who plans to raise and spend more than $2,500 must register with the Commission prior to making any expenditures. Again, the Commission has the ability to assess up to $50 a day for delinquent registration forms. Changes to Alaska's Campaign Disclosure Law April 29, 1997 Page Two Section 15.13.074 states that a candidate seeking municipal office may not accept contributions until nine months before the election. In past years, candidates could start their campaigns anytime they wanted. Under the new law a candidate for municipal office or a group acting on his or her behalf, may not raise funds until 9 months before the election. On the flip side, he or she may not accept contributions after 45 days after the date of the election and the campaign must be over by 90 days after the election. Please note the above areas are but a few of the major changes to the Campaign Disclosure Law. I have enclosed a copy of the statute and a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) sheet. Information about the new law is also available on our new internet homepage at www.state.ak.us/local/akpages/ADN4IN/apoc. Also enclosed, please find my annual questionnaire regarding the upcoming October elections. For your convenience I have enclosed a stamped self-addressed envelope. Please respond to our office by May 16, 1997. If you have any questions regarding the new Campaign Disclosure Law and how it affects your municipality and candidates, please me call me at 800 478 4176. Sincerely, ALASKA PUBLIC OFFICES COMMISSION cy'L�- �- d. &&� Christina L. Ellingson Candidate Coordinator, Campaign Disclosure Enclosures STATE OF ALASKA ALASKA PUBLIC OFFICES COMMISSION Anchorage: 276-4176; Juneau 465-4864 www.alaska.state.us FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NEW CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE LAW 1. Who may make contributions in connection with candidates' campaigns? Only individuals and groups may contribute to candidates and those groups which support or oppose candidates. 2. What is the difference between an "individual" and a "person" and why do I need to know ? An "individual" is a human being. A "person" includes individuals, corporations, organizations, and groups. The distinction is important in understanding how the new campaign disclosure law bans corporate contributions. Under the old law, the more inclusive term "person" was used in setting out reporting limits and prohibitions. The new law uses the less inclusive categories "individual" and "group" and thus, by not including corporations and organizations, prohibits them from contributing to candidates. 3. What is a "group"? Under the Alaska Campaign Disclosure law, a "group" is two or more individuals who act jointly to influence the outcome of an election of a state or municipal candidate or ballot measure. Groups may be sorted into three major categories: Political parties and their subdivisions (e.g., Greater Juneau Democratic Precinct Committee; Republican House District 14) Campaign Disclosure: Frequently Asked Questions • Ballot issue groups (including state initiative sponsors) (e.g., Citizens Against Cat Licenses) • Political action committees (e.g., ARCO Employee PAC, Alaska State Medical PAC, SnowPAC) The categories each have different reporting rules and limitations. Page 2 4. May corporations, labor unions and other organizations make campaign contributions? Corporations, businesses, labor unions and other organizations may not contribute to candidate campaigns or make independent expenditures on behalf of a candidate. They, however, may make contributions and independent expenditures in support or opposition to ballot measures. Please note, the employees or members, as individuals comprising such organizations, may form groups to make contributions and expenditures supporting candidates. Also, organizations, corporations, and unions may continue to communicate directly with their members or employees on political subjects (newsletters and the like) if the following conditions are met: the communication is of the same format and nature used by the organization on nonpolitical subjects; and it does not solicit contributions. 5. May non-resident individuals and groups contribute to Alaska candidates and groups? Non-resident individuals may contribute to Alaska candidates if the contribution is no more than $500 and the candidate or group receiving the contribution has not exceeded the aggregate amount he, she, or it is permitted to accept from non-resident individuals. Please note, this new limitation requires that candidates or treasurers keep an up-to-date count of non-resident contributions so they can record and return funds when they have reached the limit. 6. How have political party contribution rules changed? Formerly, there was no limit on the amount that a political party could contribute to a candidate, and in most instances, there was no limit on the amount that could be contributed to a political party. Campaign Disclosure: Frequently Asked Questions Now there are limits. Page 3 Under the new law, the "party" is viewed collectively. A contributor may give no more than $ 5000 cumulatively to any and all units of an Alaskan political party in a calendar year. And the party (including all its local units) is limited, in turn, in how much it may give to a candidate, with different limits for different offices. This places a unique responsibility on the contributor to a party. Only the contributor knows when he or she has reached the $ 5000 total contribution to all party units combined. Similarly, only the candidate knows when he or she has received a party contribution which, when combined with contributions from other party units, puts the candidate at the limit. 7. What are the contribution limits? From To Candidate To Group Td'Party Individual (resident) $ 500 S 500 $5000 Individual $ 500 $ 500 $ 5000 (non-resident) if the candidate has not if the group has not if the party has not exceeded aggregate limit exceeded the aggregate exceeded the aggregate below: limit of 10% of its total limit of 10% of its total $20,000 Gov/Lt Gov contributions contributions $10,000 Senate $5,000 House $3,000 Municipal Corporations, Prohibited Prohibited Prohibited Organizations, (except for ballot measure Unions campaigns) Group based in Alaska) $ 1000 $ 1000 $ 1000 Group (based outside AK) Prohibited Political party Governor $ 100,000 Unlimited Unlimited (within the Lt. Gov. $ 100,000 same pay) Senate $ 15,000 House $ 10,000 Munici al $ 5,000 8. When may a candidate for state office begin accepting contributions? Once a candidate for state office files a Letter of Intent with the APOC or a Declaration of Candidacy with the Division of Elections, he or she may accept contributions after January 1 of the year of the general election with one additional caveat. A candidate for legislative office may not accept contributions while the legislature is in session. Likewise, a candidate for any office who is a legislator (or legislative staff member) may not accept contributions during regular or special session of the legislature. Campaign Disclosure: Page 4 Frequently Asked Questions 9. May a candidate or group accept gaming proceeds? Bingo and pull tab proceeds may no longer be used to fund political campaigns. Groups may use up any such funds which were received prior to December 31, 1996. The law appears to permit groups to raise money by selling raffle tickets and contribute the proceeds to candidates. Check with the Charitable Gaming Division at (907) 465-2229. 10. Who must file campaign disclosure reports? Individuals: Any individual who contributes more than $250 over the course of a year to a candidate, group, or party must file a Statement of Contributions (Form 15-5). Any individual who independently spends aU amount to promote or oppose a candidate or ballot measure must file a Statement of Expenditures (Form 15-6) except in limited circumstances. Groups: Any combination of 2 or more individuals acting jointly to influence the outcome of an election must file campaign disclosure reports. This includes political parties and their subdivisions. Candidates: Candidates for state or municipal office must file campaign disclosure reports. Candidates whose total contributions or expenditures will not exceed $2500 may file an Exemption Statement instead. Persons: A corporation, company, partnership, firm, association, organization, business trust, society or natural person which independently spends any amount to promote or oppose a ballot measure must file a Statement of Expenditures. 11. When are campaign disclosure reports due? Statement of Contributions: Individuals must file within 10 days of making a contribution which exceeds $250. Statement of Expenditures: Individuals and persons must file within 10 days of making any independent expenditure. Letter of Intent/Registration: Candidates and groups must register before making an expenditure on a candidate or ballot issue campaign. Campaign Disclosure: Frequently Asked Questions Page 5 Candidate and Group Reports: Candidates and groups must file 30 and 7 days before an election and 10 days after; and on February 15 of each year. In addition, during the last 9 days before an election, candidates must report all contributions exceeding $250 which they receive within 24 hours. 12. What happens if the required campaign disclosure reports and registration statement are not filed on time? Penalties for late reports range from $50 to $500 per day depending on the report. 13.How may a candidate or group use their campaign funds? Campaign funds may be used for election related purposes only. They may not be taken as personal income; used to pay most civil or criminal penalties; or used for other non - election or prohibited purposes. In addition, candidate campaign money may not be contributed to another candidate or group. 14.When may candidates make expenditures from their campaign account? Once a candidate has filed a Letter of Intent/Registration with the APOC or a Declaration of Candidacy with the Division of Elections, he or she may make campaign -related expenditures. IS. What happens after the election? A candidate must file a 10 day post -election report; stop accepting campaign contributions 45 days after the election; disburse all campaign funds within 90 days after the election; and disclose the final disbursement to the APOC. 16. When must a candidate stop accepting contributions? A candidate may not accept contributions later than 45 days after the candidate's last contested election. For example, if you are a State House or State Senate candidate, and have no opponent in the General election, this means you may not collect contributions after the first week in October. 17. May candidates repay their personal loans to their own campaign? If a candidate has reported the loan to the Commission within 5 days of deposit, he or she may repay himself or herself up to a set amount depending on the office they seek. Campaign Disclosure: Frequently Asked Questions Page 6 18. What may a candidate do with surplus campaign assets after an election? A candidate may repay contributors; transfer a limited amount to a future campaign; transfer a limited amount to an office allowance account; give an unlimited amount to a political party, a charity, or the government; and/or retain a limited amount of personal property. 19. What is an office account under the Campaign Disclosure Law? The Campaign Disclosure Law permits a candidates to transfer a limited amount of surplus campaign assets to a legislative or municipal office account. The money in the account may be used only for expenses associated with the candidate's serving as a member of the legislature and all expenditures must be disclosed in the year end report. 20. When must a "paid for by" disclaimer be placed on campaign related materials? All campaign -related materials must contain a "paid for by" disclaimer which includes the words "paid for by" followed by the name and address of the candidate, group or individual paying for the advertising. Candidates and groups must also identify the name of their campaign chairman. If the communication results from an independent expenditure, it must include the following: "This NOTICE TO VOTERS is required by Alaska law. (I/We) certify that this (mailing/literature/advertisement) is not authorized, paid for, or approved by the candidate." 21. Is there a fine for inadequate or missing disclaimers? Yes. A person who fails to place a complete "paid for by" disclaimer on his or her campaign communications is subject to a civil penalty of up to $50 per day.

O. Box 110001 Juneau, Alaska 99811-0001 (907) 465-3500 Fax (907) 465-3532 Thank you for your recent letter in which you commented on Board of Fisheries' (board) procedures regarding Proposal D and other board -generated allocation proposals. At its recent meeting in Anchorage, the board voted to take no action on Proposals A, C, D, E, I, and G. The board cited public concerns over the way these proposals were developed and lack of oral public comment as the primary reason for its decision to take no action. The board affirmed the importance of full public support for the board process and stated their commitment to a fair and open process. The board also stated it will consider future Cook Inlet allocation issues only as they arise in the course of normal proposal, agenda change request, or petition procedures, with full opportunity for public involvement. I have encouraged all of my appointees on this and other state boards to work to uphold the public's support and faith in the public process. I believe, in this case, the board has made the right decision. Again, thank you for your letter. Sincerely, 1;9Tony Knowles Governor L2 c � i National 1301 Pennsylvania Avenue N.W. Washington, D.C.

Attachment m(policy):city clerks NLC'S POLICY PROCESS: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS WHAT IS POLICY? For the National League of Cities, a policy is a dynamic, grassroots -driven position statement on major issues of concern to cities and towns. The National Municipal Policy contains the formally adopted positions taken by the organization on national issues. As a national membership organization, NLC focuses its policy positions on federal actions, programs, and proposals which directly impact municipalities. With its policy development process, NLC looks ahead by attempting to identify emerging issues of immediate and long-term consequence to the nation's cities and towns. This strategic focus is essential to ensure that the resulting policy provides a solid statement of the concepts and concerns of critical importance to municipal officials. WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NLC'S POLICY AND ITS FEDERAL ADVOCACY EFFORTS? NLC's policy -- contained in the National Municipal Policy and annual resolutions -- provides the foundation for its federal advocacy efforts. 1.) Advocacy - The efforts undertaken by the lobbying staff are focused on telling Congress, the White House, and the Supreme Court what city leaders believe is best for the nation's cities. The policy ensures that NLC can speak to current legislative, regulatory, and legal actions. NLC policy statements are the foundation of the organization's advocacy efforts with the White House, Congress, federal agencies, and the judiciary. The NLC policy process produces detailed guidance that provides the advocacy staff a solid foundation upon which to examine, assess, and advocate specific proposals. 2.) Policy - NLC's policy work is intended to be anticipatory. It asks: what are the emerging issues and concerns facing cities and towns as a result of federal proposals and rulemakings? It is essential to establish policy that consists of guiding principles rather than legislation -specific statements, so that NLC can set forth clear positions and visions. For instance, in 1995 the NLC membership, through policy developed by the Community and Economic Development Committee, successfully secured action by Congress and the President to expand the federal Community Reinvestment Act. WHAT IS NLC'S POLICY COMMITTEE STRUCTURE? There are two components to each of the six committees: a larger body known as the Policy Committee and a smaller working group known as the Steering Committee. Each is explained further below: 1.) The Policy Committee is a larger body with representation drawn from the 49 state municipal leagues. Similar to larger legislative bodies like state legislatures, the Policy Committees represent a broad cross-section of the NLC membership. Policy Committees meet at the Congressional City Conference in March and at the Congress of Cities in late November or early December. In preparation for the Congressional City Conference, NLC sends Policy Committee members the policy chapter for their committee and a meeting book highlighting possible modifications for that particular chapter. In March, each Policy Committee determines the agenda of issues within their jurisdiction that warrant action during the course of the year. That agenda is then referred to the Steering Committee for further development and recommendations. The Policy Committee reconvenes at the Congress of Cities to review the work of the Steering Committee. It is the responsibility of the Policy Committee to decide if the Steering Committee's recommendations should go forward as presented, be amended or rejected. During the Annual Business Meeting, the NLC membership considers the recommendations that do go forward and make the final determination on acceptance, modification, or rejection. The state municipal leagues select representatives from their state to serve as members of the Policy Committees. Each league has a set number of slots on the six policy committees based on the size of that state's municipal population. Depending on the size, the range is three to seven slots for each committee. 2.) The Steering Committee is a working group of approximately 35 elected officials from direct member cities who are charged with studying the policy agenda set by the Policy Committee and determining what, if any, changes are warranted in the National Municipal Policy. Between the Congressional City Conference and the Congress of Cities, the Steering Committees hold at least two additional meetings in order to develop their recommendations. Each member must arrange for his or her own travel expenses to participate at the meetings. In January, the new NLC President selects the policy leadership -- chairs and vice chairs -- who guide both the Steering and Policy Committees. The chair reviews the applications of those interested in serving and makes the final decision about membership on the Steering Committee. In determining the Steering Committee membership, the chair considers a number of factors to construct a broad -based team representative of the diverse membership of the National League of Cities. This review encompasses factors such as expertise in the committee's issue area, section of the country represented, city size, gender, ethnicity, party affiliation, etc. WHAT IS THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE POLICY AGENDA AND THE LEGISLATIVE AGENDA? The policy agenda represents the work program for the six policy committees during the course of a calendar year. The policy agenda should consist of emerging concerns facing municipalities and areas where current policy should be created, updated, or expanded. These are the topics Policy Committee members identify in March. Then, the Steering Committee members develop recommendations during their spring and fall meetings and report to the Policy Committees at the Congress of Cities. The recommendations that are agreed upon by the Policy Committees, accepted by the Resolutions Committee, and adopted at the Annual Business Meeting, then become NLC's policy (the National Municipal Policy) and the basis for future advocacy efforts. NLC's annual legislative agenda is contained in the "Action Agenda" which focuses on federal actions on issues of importance to cities and -towns that are likely to receive -Congressional attention during the upcoming year. NLC members provide input on the issues of top legislative concern during the Congress of Cities when a ballot is circulated. The Board of Directors reviews the results and narrows the number of topics to five or six top legislative issues to be focused on during the year. During the March Congressional City Conference, the NLC President challenges the entire membership with the responsibility for achieving these objectives. HOW DOES NLC STATE ITS POLICY? NLC policy statements are contained in the National Municipal Policy and in resolutions. 1) The National Municipal Policy (tLNM is a permanent, yet dynamic, statement of NLC's position on national matters. The NMP is divided into six chapters. For each chapter, a committee of NLC members develops and revises policy on the issues covered by their particular committee. 2) Resolutions are annual statements of position adopted at the Congress of Cities. Resolutions may address specific pieces of legislation, but cannot override existing policy as stated in the NMP. Unless action is taken to renew a resolution or convert it into policy language, resolutions sunset at the Congress of Cities following their adoption. HOW IS POLICY ADOPTED? Policy is adopted by the NLC membership at the annual Congress of Cities Conference held in late November or early December. During the Congress of Cities, at the annual business meeting, voting delegates from the state municipal leagues and direct member cities are asked to select the leadership for the upcoming year, consider the work of the six policy committees, and vote on whether the recommended policy amendments and resolutions should be incorporated into NLC's guiding policy. WHAT ARE THE SIX POLICY CONBUTTEES? Finance, Administration and Intergovernmental Relations (FAIR) Committee deals with national economic policy, general financial assistance programs, liability insurance, intergovernmental relations, municipal bonds and capital finance, municipal management, antitrust issues, citizen participation and civil rights, and labor relations. Energy, Environment and Natural Resources (EENR) Committee is responsible for policy on air quality, water quality, natural resources, wastewater treatment, energy, waste management, infrastructure, urban esthetics, and endangered species. Community and Economic Development (CED) Committee is responsible for national urban policy in local economic development, community development and community development block grants, housing and neighborhood development, land use, recreation and parks, and historic preservation. Human Development (HD) Committee analyzes and develops policy on such issues as employment and job training, social security and unemployment insurance, income support programs, immigration and refugees, health and education, equal opportunity, and social services. Transportation and Communications (T&C) Committee is responsible for policy development on issues related to public transit, streets and highways, air transportation, railroads and waterways, and cable television and telecommunications. Public Safety and Crime Prevention (PSCP) Committee is responsible for policy in the areas of crime prevention, corrections, substance abuse, municipal fire policy, juvenile justice, and disaster preparedness and emergency response. IF I AM NOT A POLICY COMMITTEE MEMBER, HOW CAN I KEEP INFORMED ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH THE NLC POLICY PROCESS? Nation's Cities Weekly, the official publication of the National League of Cities, is the most efficient and effective means available to advise all NLC members of what is happening with the policy process. Reports are regularly provided following each Steering Committee meeting. Updates throughout the year are provided on the policy process and how the membership can be involved. Summary articles are included in NCW once the policy agendas have been established in March and to report on the actions taken by the membership during the Congress of Cities in December.
