On behalf of the Kenai River Council on the Arts we want to thank you for your
enthusiastic support for our efforts to promote the arts on the Kenai Peninsula, through Resolution

As you well know, the arts have always enhanced the quality of life for the citizens of the
city of Kenai and the central Kenai Peninsula. Our joint efforts to make the arts more visible and
accessible to residents and visitors will help better identify the city of Kenai as a highly livable
community and a desirable destination for visitors.
We also thank you for your support of our goal to develop a world-class center for arts
education, performance and commerce, with the aim of enlightening the lives of local and visiting
artists, educators, students, consumers and citizens.
Sincerely,
Jay Barrett, Board Member,

MEMORANDUM
TO: Linda Snow, City Manager
FROM- Jack La Shot, Public Works Manager ~t:~
DATE: January 9, 2002
SUBJECT: ARFF/SRE Facility design fee increase
,,
We have known for several months that there would be a request from RIM Architects
to increase the design fee associated with the referenced facility now under
construction. Due to the busy construction season, determining additional costs
incurred, negotiation, and the need to get FAA approval, we are just now in a position to
present the City Council with a resolution for approval to increase our contract with RIM
to cover these costs.
The final recommended fee increase is $84,000. This was arrived at after considerable
negotiation and has been approved by FAA for funding. The fee increase basically
covers an increase in the size of the building over the original concept, the addition of a
snow melt system, an equipment interchange facility, and a fuel dispensing system.
There were also adjustments to the original schedule to accommodate available
funding. The contract increase will cover all RIM direct costs and sub-consultant fees.
Please consider placing this item on the agenda for the January 16, 2002 meeting. A
representative from RIM will be at the meeting to answer questions. Let me know if you
would like to discuss this.

Re:ARFF/SRE Facility design fee increase
RFC822.TXT
Jack,
The FAA has reviewed the correspondence documentation with Rim Architects which
outlines the increased design fees associated with the Kenai ARFF/SRE facility.
Based upon our review of the justifications and our recent conversations, the
increased design fees appear to be necessary and reasonable. It is understood
that the increased fees amount to $84,000.00.
The FAA concurs and agrees with the change in design fees associated with the
Kenai ARFF/SRE facility (AlP grant 3-02-0412-2600). These increased design
costs are AlP eligible and can be claimed within a grant amendment in acc~rclance
with special condition number 10 of the Grant Agreement dated August 4, 2000.
Based upon our telephone conversation, you would be amending the grant at
project close-out. Please submit a final amendment request letter within the
project close-out package which outlines the increased design costs and any
'other applicable cost overruns associated with the project.
If you have any further questions feel free to contact me at 271-5460.

Hello Brad,
As we discussed yesterday on the phone, the City of Kenai would like to
request FAA approval, and agreement as to grant eligibility, a fee increase
in the design contract to RIM Architects for the referenced project. The
total recommended fee increase, after extensive negotiation is $84,000.
Matt Vogel of RIM has sent you four articles of correspondence dated March
21, 2001, June 8,2001, December 12, 2001, and December 17, 2001. These
letters explain the masons for requesting the increase and how we arrived
at the final figure. The March 21, 2001 letter best explains the increase
in project scope and scheduling changes that precipitated increased costs.
The December 12, 2001 letter represents the last reasoning and the agreed
upon amount of the increase.
Please let me know if you need further information. I can also be reached
at 283-8234.
Thanks,

Copier Leases for City Administration Building
On December 26th at 2:00 p.m. the City received bids for copier leases for City Hall. Attached
is Resolution No. 2002-06 awarding the bid to Frontier Business Systems.
Specifications were mailed to six vendors on December 11 th and advertised in the Peninsula
Clarion on December 14th. Initially the bid specifications were for two copiers - a black and
white copier and a black and white/color copier. Two companies contacted me and asked that
the City provide an option for three copiers - two black and white copiers and a color copier.
They felt they could provide the three copiers at a competitive price. On December 18th an
addendum adding Option 2 was faxed to the vendors. I had reviewed the specifications with
four of the vendors. They stated they could meet or exceed the specifications. None of the
vendors had an objection to the scheduled bid date of December 26t".
Three companies submitted bids. All requested consideration as a local bidder. They are Ikon
Office Solutions, Frontier Business Systems, and Hi Speed Gear! Also, on December 31, a
bid was received fi'om Xerox. Because it was received after the bid date, it was not
considered. Atter careful review of the bid documents, it was determined that only Frontier
Business Systems met the specifications.
Funding for new copiers for City Hall was included in the budget this fiscal year. If the City
chooses to enter into a five-year lease with Frontier Business Systems, future Non-
Departmental printing and binding budgets will need to be increased by $276 annually for
copier leases.

Dip Net Fishery
Commissioner Graves referred to a recent newspaper article suggesting the Kenai River
going to drift boats only. Graves noted she sits on the Fish and Game Advisory Board
and deals with personal use issues. Discussion followed regarding the Kenai River and
the need for additional take-out areas for drift boats should the River go to non-
motorized boats.
Graves asked about the dip net fishery and indicated she gets a wide range of
complaints from commercial fishers, ranging from concern the fish taken are being
sold, that dip netting takes fish away from the commercial fishers, that the beaches are
trashed, and that it causes bank erosion problems. A lengthy discussion ensued
regarding the dip net fishery and Councilman Bookey stated the State dropped the diP
netting on the City of Kenai and efforts continue to get the State to provide some
solutions to the problems that have arisen as a result of the fishery.

reported the proposal was turned down, however, money was requested for it.

RE--
Mayor and C~ ~,uncil Members
Linda L. Sno~,TCity Manager
Hotel/Convention Center Feasibility Study
At the November 21, 2001 City Cotmcil meeting, Mayor Williams initiated discussion about hiring
the fima of Jinneman, Kennedy, & Mohn to determine whether building a hotel/convention center on
the "Millennium Square" property would be economically feasible. Following discussion, the
Administration was directed to process the matter through both the Airport and the Planning &
Zoning Commissions and to present the plan to FAA for its approval of the expenditure of funds.
Both commissions have now reviewed and formally indicated support of the feasibility study as
presented by Mayor Williams. In addition, I have presented the plan to John Lovett, P.E., of the FAA
Planmng & Programming Branch Division, with whom the City has worked on a number of projects.
Mr. Lovett responded that since no federal grant funds would be used to finance the proposed study,
nor would there be any federal reimbursement requested for the study, the FAA doesn't need to, nor
will it, approve or deny this expenditure for professional services from the Kenai Municipal Airport
Land System Special Revenue Fund. However, Mr. Lovett also stated that airport revenue diversion
roles are still applicable.
As you know, "Millennium Square" contains six acres of Airport Land System property (or 29% of
the total acreage: three acres currently released by the FAA to the City and three more acres planned
for release) and 15 acres of General Fund property (or 71%,of the total acreage: Tract C of the
Daubenspeck Subdivision). Any revenue derived from these properties would necessarily be split
accordingly. Should the Council wish to proceed with the hotel/convention center feasibility study for
the "Millennium Square" property, the Administration recommends that it be funded with a 29%/71%
split between the Airport Land System Fund and the General Fund to accurately reflect the property
division and to comply with generally accepted accounting principles, as well as the FAA role to
avoid revenue diversion of airport funds.

Investment Report
At December 31,2001 the City had investments with a market value of $33,853,846.49,
which is down about $1.4 million from a year ago. The portfolio yield is 4.69%
compared to 6.37% last year and 5.17% last quarter. The breakdown of types of
investments held is:
US Agency Securities
US Treasury Securities
AML Investment Pool
Bank Balance
$30,550,751.86
$ 957,5OO.OO
$ 1,966,799.86
$ 378,794.77
The Federal Reserve Board cut rates by 25 basis points to 1.75% in December. The
market is anticipating another rate cut of 25 basis points at their January 29 meeting. It
is interesting to note that the Fed Funds rate was 6.5% in January 2001. At the present
time only investments with maturities less than 2 years are being considered because
we are fully invested in the over two year area. Rates in this short maturity range are
about 3.25% compared to 5.5% a year ago. Longer-term securities are trading in the
4% to 5% range compared to 7% and higher a little over a year ago. This will cause
interest earnings to decline substantially from recent years. Drastic fluctuations in
interest rates also make it more difficult to accurately estimate interest earnings at year-
end due to the accounting rule requiring recognition of unearned gains and losses on
the portfolio.
My base strategy of investing these funds is to buy and hold. As cash is available I
invest it at the best rates available within the time frames necessary to meet cash flow
needs. Some of the securities in the portfolio are callable, which means the issuer can
redeem the security for the par amount at their option. A call occurs only when rates
are falling, which means that the investor will reinvest at a lower rate of interest. On a
very infrequent basis I sell a security to increase yield by purchasing another higher
yielding investment. If you have any questions or comments about the City's
· investments please contact me. A copy of the portfolio is attached.

RE' DRIVING OF OFF-ROAD VEHICLES IN THE CITY OF KENAI
Dear Mr. Bannock:
Thank you for your letter which I received on December 26, 2001 in which you asked
why ATV's (off-road vehicles) cannot be driven on trails that are on private properties.
The Kenai Municipal Code (KMC) 13.40.020 states in part,
It shall be unlawful for any person to operate an off-road
vehicle in the City of Kenai:
(a) on public or private property without the express or implied
consent of the owner, his authorized agent, or representative...
(b) on municipal park lands, except where specifically
authorized, municipal playgrounds and school playgrounds areas
except by special authorization or in a specially designated area...
(c) on a city or state maintained roadway, sidewalk, or on a
path or trail designated for bicycles or pedestrians, unless such
travel is necessary to go around an obstruction or hazard...
(d) On any city or state road fight-of-way that has been
landscaPed, seeded, or otherwise improved...
Your suggestion of allowing use of off-road vehicles in the city if they stay 150" away
from the road is not without merit as we have recently received a number of comments
from the public. If you and others feel strongly about requesting a change in the
present code requirements, I would urge you to reqt/est to be placed on a Kenai City
Council's meeting. This can be done through contacting the Kenai City Clerk, Carol
?reas at 283-8231. She will ask you to submit'a written explanation of your request,
noting your concerns, your suggestions and advantages to your suggestions, which
you could then use as an oral presentation to the council.
After hearing your presentation, it would be the council's task to determine whether
your concerns, and others that have been voiced to them, are strong enough to
consider amending the present code requirement for use of off-road vehicles. That
Tony Bannock
January 9, 2002
Page 2
would be done through administration's research and comments and then
consideration of an ordinance to amend the code. It may be of interest to you to know
an ordinance to amend the Kenai Municipal Code takes at least two months from the
time the ordinance is introduced (one meeting), a public hearing is held (second
meeting), and then, if the ordinance is passed by council, a month before the new law
becomes effective.
We have enclosed a copy of the complete KMC Chapter 13.40 for review and use in
considering your next action.
If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Freas at 283-8231 as she'll be glad to
help you in your efforts.

-- WRITING EFFECTIVE LETTERS TO
GOVERNMENT LEADERS
It is impossible for all government officials to know how any bill they consider will affect your business. A well-written
letter will often help lawmakers understand the real world implications of pending legislation. Here are some tips on
writing an effective letter:
· All government officials should be addressed as The Honorable.
· if possible, write your letter on company letterhead. Keep it short--anything longer than one page may be ignored.
· Remember to keep your letter persuasive and concise.
· Begin your letter by identifying the specific topic you are writing about. As a rule, never write about more than one
issue per letter.
· Clearly state the action you would like your lawmaker to take on the bill and ask for a reply asking what action he or
she is planning to take.
· Use facts to bolster your position, providing specific examples of how a legislative proposal will impact your
business and the employees. The more local you make the argument, the more persuasive it will be.
· Always include your full return address with ZIP code. Because of the large volume of mail lawmakers receive,
they may only respond if they know you are a constituent.
