Carol Freas
City Clerk, City of Kenai
Kenai Alaska.
Dear Carol,
I am writing on behalf of the 2006 Arctic Winter Games Bid Committee. As I indicated on
the phone, we would address the Kcnai City Council on May 1, 2002 via public presentation
regarding our recent trip to the 2002 Arctic Winter Games in Canada's Iqaluit Nunavut Territory
and Nuuk Greenland. We have a short Power Point Presentation as well as experiential testimony
regarding the logistics, games' nature and the impending bid process. Our overall schedule is to
keep the presentation to 10 minutes or less depending upon your requirements but would also like
) to display some photos for Council and public viewing.
As you may or may not know, a number of Kenai, Soldotna, Nikiski, Kasilof, Clam
Gulch, Seward and Homer youth competed at the games. Our trip made it possible to both
support the local athletes in their endeavors and gain valuable information for our 2006 Arctic
Winter Games bid submission. We are hopeful that by presenting this learned information to the
Kenai City Council, we will be able to impress upon them the fantastic opportunity that lies
within the possibility of hosting the 2006 Winter Games in the Central Peninsula:
In closing then I thank you for your time and look forward to being able to present at the
May 1 ~ 2002 meeting and to share our excitement for the furore.

THE CARTS STORY
~The CARTS brokerage took two years to .Plan.~ Forty area agencies
and concerned individuals worked together to find a way to provide
rides for people. Alaska DOT provided support with planning and
implementation grants, and Congress awarded I:'1'~ funding for the
project.
~ CARTS is a private nonprofit corporation operating under a Board
of Directors and a community Adviso~ PARTNERS committee. Both
groups meet every month. It is administered by an £xecutiYe
Director with an Executive Assistant and Operations Supervisor.. Five
part-ti.me hourly drivers Work varied'schedules to give .rides whenever
passenger trips can be linked together. The brokorage uses a
computer scheduling system that tracks all the rides.
~ The annual operating budget for CARTS is just over $600,000, and
some 30,000 trips are being delivered annually, serving over ~1000
passengers. The number keeps growing. Trips run from 5-50 miles.
~ CARTS began giving rides in October, 2000. The ridership
increased fast, and proved for the serious need of area residents to
have some sort of affordable transit services.
~ During the .first six months trips were brokered to Alaska Cab, then
in April 2001 CARTS also began operating their own vans with.
employed drivers. The first two 13-passenger vans were donated by
Anchorage Transit throUgh an agreement with Public Assistance. By
nOw CARTS was already delivering over 1500 rides each month. The
second two CARTS vehicles were handicap-accessible 7-passenger
minivans, both put into service in' September 2001. The fifth vehicle
was a surplus 15-passenger van purchased from the State. It is the
"Community Bus".
~ CARTS trips dropped off during the summer of 2001, when people
could get around easier on their own, and students were not being
transported to School. However rides' picked up dramatically in the
fall,' and by October nearly 3000 trips Were delivered in a' month. By
January that number was nearly 4000.!

ALASKA MOBILITY COALITION
The Alaska Mobility Coalition is a statewide coalition of individuals and Organizations
formed to achieve mobility through community public transportation systems for
residents and visitors of Alaska. The Coalition's goals are to ensure'
' Improved and stable operating-and capital funding for existing community
transportation systems and services available to the public
· Safe and cost-effective rides to meet local, regional and state mobility needs
· New sustainable, coordinated community transportation
:
Need to Expand Communi ,ty Transportation Systems
Alaska has serious cOmmunity transportation needs, which prevent many Alaskans with
disabilities, low-income individuals, 'seniors, youth and members of the general public
from being employed and participating'in their communities. Capital spending on transit
is a small fraction of the $500 million Statewide transportation budget, and most of that
money goes to ferry and rail improvements. Most local transit systems are so under-
funded that their service levels are not keeping up with population increases. In
Anchorage, for instance, population has increased 25 percent in the last ten years, while
transit services have decreased by 33 percent.
Traditional public transit systems exist in several Alaskan commUnities, inclUding
Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Ketchikan, Barrow, and Metlakatla. Three Alaskan
communities have relatively new coordinated co, mmunity transportation systems
(Kodiak, Mat-Su and Central Kenai Peninsula. No other Alaska community has a public
transportation system. Although individual agencies may have accessible vehicles, the
agencies restrict eligible clientele and hours of services. Services are seldom coordinated
among the various agencies due to a fear of loss of control and real or perceived liability
.concerns, insurance policy restrictions and staffing issues. In other communities, no
accessible vehicles are available at all. Communities with traditional public
transportation systems (buses and ADA paratransit service) generally have limited.hours
of service due to a lack of resources' funding restrictions and lack of coordination with
agencies who own accessible vehicles.
Overview of Existing Communi ,ty Transportation Systems
Alaska is in the beginning stages of building coordinated community transportation
systems in communities across the state to address these problems. The new systems in
Kodiak, Mat-Su, and the Central Kenai Peninsula have resulted from these efforts.
Coordinated systems take existing publicly funded vehicles owned by'provider agencies,
centralize dispatch, increase filled seats and increase vehicle usage. Not only is
efficiency increased, individual riders have access to a full menu of options such as
voucher programs or travel training. In rural areas with no public transportation, public-
private partnerships are sometimes created through the use of taxi voucher programs.
AMC 3/08/02, 8'50 AM '
The benefits to the. state of Alaska include more trips for more people to go to work,
participate in the community and receive medical services; lower cost per ride; improved
geographic coverage; lengthened hours or days of operation through increased
dispatching efficiencies; and better use of funds agencies already receive to provide
transportation services.
In the coordinated transportation programs in Alaska: Anchorage, central Kenai
Peninsula, Kodiak and Mat-Su (see Appendix A), 294,462 individual rides were provided
in January, 2002, with an additional 155 individuals receiving services through a taxi
voucher program on the central Kenai Peninsula and Homer. The demand for these
services is much higher than anticipated. The central Kenai Peninsula, Kodiak' and Mat-
Su transit programs exceeded their monthly ridership projections by 55 percent.
Sitka will be starting its coordinated system in July 2002 and Fairbanks is in the process
of expanding its current fixed-route bus service and complementary paratransit service to
a fully coordinated systeTM. Other areas where services are being coordinated or will be
coordinated to some degree include Homer, Seward, Dillingham and Juneau. Other areas
with expressed interest in developing coordinated transportation systems include Copper
Valley, Craig and Hollis and Ketchikan.
AMC 3/08/02, 8'50 AM
Alaska Mobility Coalition
Federal Funding Request
$22.5 Million over Three Years
Introduction
iiii Ill
As stated earlier, Alaska is in the beginning stages of building coordinated community
transportation systems in communities across the state to provide accessible, affordable
transportation for all, including Alaska's most vulnerable citizens. Unlike other states,
which are trying to maintain their existing systems, Alaska needs capital, and operational'
resources to provide basic public transportation infrastructure. The amount of existing
federal, state and local funds currently used to support our public transportation
infrastructure are not enough to maintain the existing level of services, let alone expand
them or establish new services and programs. A three-year investment of $22.5 million
in new federal funding over a three-year period earmarked for Alaska is needed to
build a community transportation infrastructure that can be sustained in the future.
In order to ensure flexibility in how these funds are used, it is essential that these funds be
budgeted in a flexible component of the federal budget (e.g. the Secretary of
Transportation's discretionary fund) along with language such as "Not withstanding any
other federal regulations, these funds will be awarded as described below .... "These'
funds shall not be used to replaCe any current sources of state and/or local funding. The
Secretary of Transportation is also able to waive match requirements in the discretionary
fund, which is important since some communities cannot meet immediate match
requirements.
These funds should be earmarked to the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public
Facilities (DOTPF). DOTPF will be allowed to utilize a reasonable percentage of these
funds to administer these new grant funds. The earmark shall be further divided as
follows:
$12.0 Million - Public Transit System Enhancements and Expansions
$12.0 million, or $4.0 million annually, will be allocated sPecifically to Alaskan.
communities that have operating public transit systems, i.e. Anchorage, Juneau,
Fairbanks, Ketchikan} Barrow, Metlakatla, Kodiak, Mat-Su, and Central Kenai Peninsula.
Any new community transportation system, once Operational, competes for funding under
this program. Funding will be made available on a competitive basis.for a three-year
period. Funding may be used for the following purposes .and cannot be used to supplant
existing federal, state or local funding'
Increase hours of operation of existing public transit and corresponding ADA
paratransit services.
Expand current routes and expand'routes to new areas.
.AMC 3/08/02, 8'50 AM'
Improve snow. and ice removal around bus stops and major access points, which may
include demonstration activities such as sidewalk warming from excess heat from
both public and private buildings.
· Develop or expand rider-tr'aining programs for persons with disabilities, seniors and
other vulnerable riders.
· Other demonstration activities that improve the delivery of public transportation
services to persons with disabilities, seniors, and other vulnerable riders.
· Capital purchases.that support public transportation systems.
Local governments and/or their coordinated system agents applying for these funds will
be required to indicate how, after a three-year period, they intend to continue to support
expanded or enhanced operations that result from the use of this grant funding.
$ 6.0 million- Coordinated Transportation* Systems
* "Coordinated TransPortation'' means wherever and whenever feasible, entities involved
in administering and/or providing transportation and related services to senior citizens,
persons, with disabilities and the general public work together in a coordinated effort to
effectively use resources and alleviate duplication of services.
$ 6.0 million, or $2.0 million annually, will be allocated for the development,
improvement, and/or expansion of single community or multi-community coordinated
transportation systems. Local goVernments and State-recignized coordinated systems ·
will be eligible to apply. Funding will be made available on a competitive basis for a one
to three year period and may be combined with the state's existing available funds 'for
coordinated transportatiOn services through the Alaska Mental Health Trust program, and
the federal 5310 "Disabled and Senior Transportation" program. Funding may be used
for the following pu.rpoSes:
Coordinated transportation planning.
· Purchase of capital items such as vehicles, facilities and equipment. Vehicles may be
vans, mini-buses, and other community-appropriate conveyances that can serve all
residents, including people with disabilities.
· Maintenance and repair of vehicles, facilities, and equipment.
OPerational costs including administration, wages, fuel, insurance, etc, as long'as the
system charges a user fee to passengers (or third party payers), and an adequate plan
for the sustainability of the program after three years is included in the grant
application.
Other demonstration activities that improve the delivery of public transportation
services to persons with disabilities, seniors, and the general public.
,$3.0 million for Voucher Demonstration Projects
$3.0 million, or $1.0 million annually, will be used to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness
of taxi and volunteer voucher programs in rural and remote communities where little or
no public transportation or coordinated transportation.systems exist. One example of this
AMC 3/08/02, 8'50 AM
type of public-private partnership includes a non-profit Purchasing an. accessible min-van,
and leasing it to a taxicab company, who, in turn, provides reduced fares to persons with
disabilities or seniors who have obtained "vouchers" from the non-profit organization.
Another example being utilized in rural areas outside of Alaska are the use of gas
purchase vouchers and/or mileage reimbursements to volunteers who provide rides to
persons with disabilities, seniors, and/or welfare-to-work clients.
$1.5 Million for Statewide Mobility Planning
$1.5 million, or $500,000 per year, will be used for mobility planning by the Alaska
Mobility Coalition. The Mobility.Planning Project is a comprehensive approach to
ensuring accessible, affordable transportation for persons with disabilities, seniors, low-
income people and the general public. It builds upon the philosophy that mobility for all
belongs to the entire cOmmunity and is reached most effectively when all stakeholders
work together. The amount and variety of transportation options is maximized for the
community at large, which is particularly important given limited community resOurces.
Funds will also be used for the Alaska Mobility Coalition to contract for a statewide
community-by-community needs assessment of transportation service gaps and
resources, which build upon currently available needs assessment data available through
the Public Transportation Management System and the Emergency Medical ServiCes
database.. The needs assessment will be multi-modal to increase community awareness of
potentially available resources (e.g. accessible vehicles that Can double as medical
transport, boats, snowmobile carts).
Particular attention will be paid to inCorporating mobility assessments int° ongoing
community needs assessments' conducted by agencies sUch as the Department of
Transportation and Public Facilities and the Department of Community and Economic
Development, and the Denali Commission. Currently, these assessments foCus on
infrastructure needs (i.e. health clinics,. aviation, and roads) and generally do not include
assessment of human transportation needs. The needs assessments will also be
coordinated with regional health corporations and non-profit organizations to minimize
the. cost of data collection. The Alaska Mobility Coalition will use the needs assessment
information to'
· identify promising practices that can be transferred to other geographic areas;
· analyze information on potential sources and strategies for funding community
transportation;
· pull both private and public funding sources together to jointly fund transportation
services in communities with the highest needs; and
· help communities plan and implement coordinated transportation systems.
Continued funding of the Alaska Mobility Coalition will be dependent upon the
development of a dues structure for interested individuals and cooperating agencies,
(similar to the Colorado Transportation Coalition), as well as public and private grants'.
AMC 3/08/02, 8'50 AM
The process to incorporate the Alaska Mobility Coalition and create this structure is
underway .now.
Sustainabi!i .ty of Programs Initiated with new Federal Funding
Sustainability of programs initiated with new federal funding shall be based on the
Alaska Mobility Coalition's long term strategies to increase federal formula funding in
multiple public transportation funding categories, identify state funding options, and
create support from local communities where coordinated systems are established.
Specific ideas for continued support are described below.
Future Federal Funding
President Bush 'has included additional funding for transportation in his New Freedom
Initiative. These dollars may be a source of funding for capacity building if flexibility
such as that described above is built into the program.
The $22.5 million over three years represents an investment in the basic public
transportation infrastructure of the State of Alaska. However, public transportatiOn
systems cannot operate without, ongoing investments or subsidies similar to those
received for highways.
For example, funds available through the Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC),
5310 - Elderly and Disabled Transportation, and 5311 - Non-Urbanized Formula Transit
sYstems, can be Used for both capital and operating expenses; however, each program has
its limitations. Although there is precedent for earmarking JARC funds, which can be
used to Alaska's advantage, the major disadvantage to JARC is the requirement for a 50
percent cash match, which cannot include other U.S. Department of Transportation funds
although it can include all other federal funds. Alaska needs exemptions to these
requirements so that the level Of required match is reduced, in-kind match is
allowed and/or U.S. Department of Transportation funds can be used as match.
Changes also need .to be made to the 5310 and 5311 programs. These programs are
formula-driven with minimum allotments to states with small populations. Alaska, along
with 15 other states, benefit very little from increases in the 5310 and 5311 programs.
Improvements to the formula to benefit small population 'states for these programs
need to be initiated in the reauthorization of the Transportation Equity Act for the
21st .Century (TEA-21).
Other sources of operating funds are needed to ensure the sustainability of coordinated
community transit systems. Public transportation needs ongoing investments similar to
those invested in highways. Congress should consider a requirement that at least 1.5
· percent of federal highway funds be dedicated for operating public transportation
systems with general intent not to supplant other federal fund's. Although 1.5 percent
will not significantly affect states' highway programs, it will make a significant impact
AMC 3/08/02, 8:50 AM
on the establishment and sustainability of accessible, affordable and Coordinated public
transportation syStems in every state.
Future State Funding
The Alaska Mobility Coalition is also exploring ways to increase state funding options
for pUblic transportation and coordinated transportation systems. Some of the options
currently being explored by AMC members now. include'
· Dedicate a percentage of federal Highway Funds received by the state for public
transportation' and coordinated transportation systems;
Institute new motor fuel taxes;
Institute new vehicle registration fees;
Institute a statewide rental vehicle tax;
Dedicate pOrtion of TANF Funds; and
· Seek new state general fund appropriations
Future Local Funding
The Alaska Mobility Coalition is also exploring ways to gain additional support from
local governments for public transportation and coOrdinated transportation services.
Some of the options currently being explored by AMC members include:
· Institute local sales, rental vehicle, cruise ship or hotel bed tax supports for public
transportation and/or coordinated transportation systems;
Improve fee collection strategies including third party payer collections;
· Improve local communities and non-profit organization's ability to garner private
support through foundations and corporate giving;
Increase efficiencies of transportation services provided by local programs through
coordinated vehicle maintenance, bulk fuel purchases, .insurance pools, and increased
use of volunteers.
In summary, this request for additional federal funding for Alaska will be maximized
through implementation .of innovative transportation solutions focused on coordination
and'pooling of resources. The approach outlined here can serve as a model for other
states. More importantly, it allows people with disabilities, low-income individuals,
seniors, youth and the general public to work and fully participate in their local
communities.'

APPENDIX A
OVERVIEW OF EXISTING AND PLANNED
COORDINATED TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS IN ALASKA
STATUS REPORT
Anchorage Coordinated System
Operates People Mover fixed-route public bus service, AnchorRides complementary
coordinated ADA paratransit and senior rides, and Share-a-Ride vanpool, with private
taxi operator involvement and linking to the MASCOT system in the Mat-Su Valley.
The Share-a-Ride vanpool serves Anchorage to/from Mat-Su (Wasilla/Palmer) and
to/from Girdwood. The Anchorage system provided 261,315 People Mover trips, 15,522
AnchorRides trips, and 6,843 Share-a-Ride trips~providing 283,680 total trips in
January 2002.
CARTS- Central Area Rural Transit System (central Kenai peninsula)
Operates public transportation including ADA paratransit service via a brokerage that
coordinates rides provided by other agencies and provides some rides directly, and
includes private taxi operator involvement. Monthly ridership:.planned 3,363 trips;
CARTS provided 3,711 regular trips and over 800 free daycare trips for children
under six traveli.ng wi,th an adult in January 2002.
KATS- Kodiak Area Transit System
Operates KATS'fixed route public bus service during morning and late afternoon rush
hours, with complementary ADA paratransit service, and coordinates social service
agency rides during this time and the reSt of the day. Monthly ridershi.p: planned' 1,125
trips; KATS provided 1,323 trips in January 2002.
MASCOT- Mat-Su Coordinated Transportation
Operates MASCOT deviated fixed-route public bus service, complementary ADA
paratransit service and additional contracted door-to-door rides, and includes private taxi
operator involvement. MASCOT links to the People Mover/AnchorRides systeln in
Anchorage. Monthly ridership: planned 2,480 trips; MASCOT provided 5,748 trips in
.January 2002..
Sitka's Coordinated Community Transportation System
Will provide fixed-route public bus service, Complementary paratransit service, and door-
to-door service in outlying areas of the community. The system will feature a main year-
round route and a shorter summer .route. They have hired a director and are preparing to
start services in July 2002. In their coordinated transportation plan, they project they will
provide 55,600 trips annually (an average of 4,633 per month).
Fairbanks' Coordinated'Community Transportation System
Will broker social service agency rides to further complement existing MACS fixed-route
bus service and VanTran complementary paratransit service. Has recently secured
federal funding for coordinated system dispatch center.
· Other areas
Limited coordinated services exist in Homer and will begin in Seward during 2002.
Juneau coordinates ADA paratransit and senior rides, does further informal interagency
AMC 3/08/02, 8'50 AM
rides coordination, and has been through a planning process to explore development of a
full coordinated system in the future.
Unmet needs
Dillingham is currently finalizing their coordinated transportation plan, thr°ugh
which they have identified demand for 47,880 trips annually (an average of 3,990
trips per month). They are now examining alternative service structures to see
how much of this demand can realistically be met through each alternative.
Copper Valley and Valdez have expressed interest in coordinated transportation.
These areas can potentially be linked to the MASCOT and People
Mover/AnchorRides systems.
Craig & Hollis will need com~nunity transportation related to the new IFA ferry
services. Other Southeast communities will also be impacted 'by the new ferry
system.
Ketchikan needs expanded community transportation, indicating a coordinated
system may be appropriate there.
What Alaska's coordinated communi ,ty transportation systems mean to Alaskans
MASCOT repons
In January 2002'
* approximately 25% of January 2002 riders were seniors (aged 60 and over)
1020 route deviations were made to serve passengers, with developmental,
physical and severe mental disabilities
64 rides were to LifeQuest clients and 237 rides were to Mat-Su recovery
clients
· 235 rides were to Medicaid waiver clients, many to adult day centers.
"Rose" is a 40-year-old woman with Down syndrome who lives alone in an
apartment complex that provides her case management services, has received social
service agency services for many years, and rides the MASCOT bus everywhere she
goes. MASCOT enables her to get to her job at a local pizza parlor, to the stores, and
to visit her boyfriend. She knows every route and driver, call the dispatcher every
morning to say hello and tell him which drivers should receive raises and which
should be fired. She's taught many of her peers how to use the MASCOT bus
system.
KATS reports
KATS transports several different populations to places they need to be, such as
when welfare-to-work mother "Sally" and her children get KATS transportation each
day to their childcare facility, Where the children are dropped off, and then Sally rides
AMC 3/08/02, 8'50 AM
on to her place of employment. The transportation allows her to work and secure
proper care for her children.
Residents of the nursing home in Kodiak go once a month to an elementary.school to
share stories and be with the students. KATS transports them to these
intergenerational events.
Different poPulation groups are on the KATS bus 3 times a week to shop at Safeway,
downtown, and Walmart.
Several people with disabilities are taken each day to Threshold to work in Kodiak's
recycling project. This is a double win~it asSists Kodiak to recycle its cardboard
and paper and also helps people get to work.
KATS is directly involved in increasing the work force in Kodiak by enabling people
,
to get to jobs.
CARTS reports
CARTS is carrying more passengers who are severely developmentally disabled or
chronically mentally ill as well as extremely frail seniors in 2002. Since the word is
out, people are starting to realize they can be independent, even though they have
been isolated or completely dependent for years.
One man with a developmental disability, 34 years old, lives with his mother who is
his legal guardian, and he is traveling alo'ne for the first time. He struggles to
remember his birthday or facts about himself, but wants to be independent. Now he
can make his own trips to the doctor.
We have a speCial contract with Cook Inlet Council on Alcohol and Drug AbUse, and
transport 25 severe substance abusers to treatment on a regular basis, in most cases
keeping DUI cases off the highways. We also transport another 25 drug and alcohol
offenders who are under 21 years old to a Native-run substance abuse center for
treatment and ongoing counseling.
We have a passenger who can't speak at all or get out of his wheelchair on his own.
We take him weekly to physical therapy and church.
Several passengers with chrOnic mental illness or developmental disabilities are now
going to work several times a week, and are finally able to keep their jobs and
develop increased self-respect and self-sufficiency.
CARTS also transports several extremely frail seniors, at least three who have
Alzheimer's. They are severely cognitively impaired, and always very confused, but
they can get to the hospital and to physical therapy and retain some independence.
Our most severely ill passengers have been getting rides for most of the past' year,
and some of them are getting so sick that they can't even make their trips to the
hospital. We know that we are going to be attending their funerals soon, but knOw
also that we have helped make their final months much better.
AMC 3/08/02, 8:50 AM
Kinders - The Kenai - Soldotna community rose ill support of continuing
CARTS free rides for kindergarten students whose parents couldn't provide
transport to keep them in school. Funding came from many sources - doctors,
parents, churches, oil corporation grants, and even the local newspaper! Supporters
are still writing letters requesting municipal funding to the cities and borough elected
officials.
Jobs/Daycare - Over 40% of CARTS rides are taking people to and from work.
Many parents also drop their children at daycare on their way. CARTS has made it
possible for people to have reliable, affordable transportation that
was not available less than two years ago! One passenger wrote, "I am seven months
pregnant, and was walking 5 miles to work every day. I sure am thankful CARTS is
here so I no longer have to walk to work!"
Anchorage Coordinated System reports
The AnchorRides trips for January 2002 included 2,940 Medicaid trips, 4,834 senior
trips, and 7,748 ADA trips. Since many of the Medicaid and ADA trips are also'
senior trips, number of trips for seniors is actually considerably higher than 4,834
trips.
FOr the Share-a-Ride program, january 2002 figures show:
· 18 vanpool.s operated serving 228 riders with an average of13 riders per van
· They traveled a total of 40,971 miles, during their 6,843 one-way trips
· The average commute time was 71 minutes
On 11/21/01, a driver picked'up a passenger at the Anchorage Renal Care Center
after her dialysis appointment to take her home.. The. driver was not familiar with the
passenger, as this was a new route for him. However, he noticed upon dropping the
passenger at home that she seemed "sPacey" and not as coherent as a person should
be. He notified the dispatcher of his concern and she called the rider's emergency
contact person to notify him of our concern. The passenger's brother went
immediately to the passenger's home and found that his sister was borderline for
going into a diabetic coma. Both passenger and her brOther were very thankful that
AnchorRIDES staff was able to help with averting a major health emergency. If left
unattended, the passenger may have died. The driver and dispatcher were formally
recognized with a department "People Mover and Shaker Award" for their excellent
.service.

April 8, 2002
Amendment of lCMA 457 Deferred Compensation Plan
This year IRS laws and regulations regarding public sector deferred compensation plans were
changed to make them more consistent with private sector plans. One of the options ICMA
offers their participants is a loan program whereby an individual can borrow half of their 457
plan balance, up to $50,000, to use for any purpose. Previously the only way to get any of this
money was if the individual had a narrowly defined hardship. Offering loans requires a change
to our plan document, which requires approval of council.
Our loan program, if approved, will be limited such that there is almost no administrative
overhead on the City. ICMA does the administration; we would only need to set up payroll
deduction. Individuals will understand that they will be required to repay the loan with interest at
prime plus ½% through payroll deduction. Upon separation from employment any loan balance
becomes due and taxable if not paid.
This is a very good option for the employees of the City. It allows individuals to diversify their
retirement plans or use their own money as they see fit. It is a very common component of
private sector plans.
I recommend the Council amend our ICMA 457.Plan document to allow loans.

Wince-CorthelI-Bryson can meet all of the requirements of the RFP at a cost of only $29,590
because of an extensive amount of prior work in this area.
1. They are the Design Project Managers on the ADOT/PF Kenai Bridge Access Road
Pathway. This pathway is in the same location as our proposed water and sewer mains.
Not only do they have a tremendous amount of information on this area, but they are
already working with ADOT/PF on right-of-way issues. They are also working with the
permitting agencies. Coordination with everyone involved in the pathway project is a
requirement for this project.
2. They already designed a water and sewer line in this area in 1979. It was called 1979
Beaver Loop Road (West) Water and Sewer Improvements. It was never built. Much of
the information for that design can be used on this project.
I had Jack La Shot review the RFP and all of the proposals. We both agree, taking all things

RE' RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT CENTER FOR ADOLESCENTS
Dear Mr. Shill:
The Council and I were very pleased with your presentation at our April 17, 2002
council meeting in which you discussed the Central Peninsula Counseling Services
desire to build a Residential Treatment Center for Adolescents in Kenai.
We are very interested in pursuing the project and believe there is definitely some
room for negotiation with regard to other areas of help the city would be able to lend
toward your bringing the project to fruition. While I am not at liberty to speak for the
entire council, I have discussed with some members some items with which we may be
able to help as follows:
Land
Without question, we can waive the water and sewer connect fees..
Lease / Sale
We might suggest a lease arrangement for the f~rst two years during the construction
and start-up phases. Our Code allows for sale after two years of leasing to the
leaseholder. In lieu of a two-year lease, we might also suggest a long-term lease which
is also allowable under the Code, and may be set for any number of years well into the .
future.
We would also suggest allowing the architects to determine the proper land size as it
may be the five acres you previously discussed, would be more than needed. Since the

land in question would need to be subdivided from a larger parcel, we can make it just
about any size that is required. If the size is altered to fit, there could be additional
savings in that cost.
As you can see, the City of Kenai wishes to be of assistance in the development of this
project to the maximum extent possible. Additionally, a resolution supporting the
concept of the treatment center project will be before council at the May 1, 2002
council meeting for consideration.
Speaking on behalf of the Council and Administration, we wish you a great amount of
success in pursuing this project. Please feel free to call on either City Manager Snow
or myself at any time.

Dear Mr. Shill,
We are happy to write a letter of support for your proposed construction of a 36-bed
Residential Treatment Cemer in the Kenai Peninsula area for emotionally and
behaviorally disturbed adolescems.
We understand that there are over 350 Alaska children with psychiatric and emotional
problems who are sent out of Alaska for residential treatment every year because Alaska
does not have the facilities to treat them in-state. We believe such a facility as you are

Demr Mr. Shill,
On behalf of Ionia Inc. Board of Directors, I would like to offer our strong support tbr thc
proposed construction of a 36-bed Residential Treatment Center in the Kcnai Peninsula ar~a.
This facility for emotionally and behaviorally di~urbed adolescents will be a tremendous asset to
Alaska.
tt is v~ry disturbing to Alaskan families who have children with psychiatric and emotionat
difficulties to be ~nt outside, the state tar away t¥om their close ~e. lativcs. More than 3 50
Alaskan children with psychiatric and emotional problems arc. sent out of Alaska for resid~ntiat
treatment cv¢~ year. This facility will be a litbsavcr for these adolescents and their parents.
This inmate faeilky will also save Alaska substantial costs tbr the treatment of these children.
Ionia supports the work that Central Peninsula Counseling Services does in our community. We
~4~oleheartedly endorse this n~w exciting projecL
Sincerely,
Barry Crei~on

Kebschull noted staff had nothing additional but drew attention to the letter that was
provided prior to the meeting. Commissioner Bryson indicated he liked the proposal
but had some concern with Item 6, which referred to fencing of the work area if
excavation goes below the water table and the potential hazard to public safety if a
fence was not provided. Kebschull explained, the code calls for fencing when required.
Discussion took place on other pits that are below the water table and the lack of
fencing. Councilman Bannock indicated the likeliness of an accident would be slim
and that was the reason why the code didn't make fencing a requirement.

7-b.
Discussion-- Proposed Education Zone/Schedule Public Heating
Discussion took place on some items of the zoning table that were questioned by
Commissioner Bryson. Bryson asked why dormitories and boarding houses were
combined and Kebschull indicated they always had been but a footnote could be
added to include boarding houses, as long as they were an educational facility.
Councilman Bannock asked if a map would be made available for the new educational
zone in order to distinguish the exact locations. A lengthy discussion took-place on
the various locations of schools and how they would be affected. Kebschull noted the
process would be done in two steps; first to create the zone and then rezone. Goecke
expressed concern of rezoning schools that are on Kenai Peninsula Borough property
and Bryson expressed concern about rezoning a school when there is no benefit to
doing so. Nord reminded the Commission the reason for the zone was to make
dealing with some issues easier for the Commission and used the sign proposal for the
Challenger Center as an example. Kebschu11 stated the education zone was developed
at the request of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Kebschull added, all schools
should operate under a Conditional Use Permit. However, Sears Elementary never
applied so if they ever want to do any exterior additions or renovations, a building
permit could not be obtained.
MOTION:
Commissioner Nord MOVED to schedule the proposed education zone for public
hearing and Commissioner Glick SECOI~DED the motion.

James Shill, Ex. Director/Central Peninsula Counseling Services --
Proposed Residential Treatment Center for Adolescents..
Mr. Shill gave a presentation on their proposed Residential Treatment Center for
adolescents which they want to build in the Kenai or Soldotna area. He noted, in prior
discussions with Mayor Williams, a five-acre tract of land adjacent to the Juvenile
Detention Center property had been suggested which would be close to the airport,
has sewer/water hook-up available, and would be close to their administrative offices.
Shill stated they were interested in either a long-term lease or outright purchase of the
property.
Shill noted, impacts to the city would be
A small increase in law enforcement needs through the Kenai Police
Department in assists;
· Increase in sewer/water service and income to the city;
· Increase in airport usage; ·
· Approximately 40 jobs;
· $3 million in annual revenue;
A $2 million construction project;
· An increase of 36 students in the Kenai Peninsula borough School
District through its built-in classroom.
Williams informed Shill the appraised value of the property on Marathon Road would
be $35,000 an acre or $175,000. He noted, the city would waive the $100
sewer/water hook-up fee. Shill also noted there are approximately ten local children
now being treated out-of-state that could be cared for at this center and that children
would also be imported into the center from outlying communities. The program
would offer 24-hour care in a 30-90 day length of stay on average. The facility would
offer 36 beds and was planned to be built in 2003. Shill also stated they were at the
step now to have an architect begin work on a plan, but they did not want to proceed
without first knowing whether there was support for the project. He noted, he had
made three presentations, and he had received support from the local school
principals, the Kenai Peninsula Assembly, and from Senator Torgerson, and
Representatives Chenault and Lancaster.
Council stated theft support of the project and requested a resolution of support for
the concept of the facility be brought forward to them at the May 1, 2002 council

MOTION:

UNANIMOUS CONSENT. Councilwoman Jackman SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Airport Manager Cronkhite explained, when the
preliminary estimates were received, the price was less. However, when the project
went to bid, it had been suggested a rubberized base sheet be placed under the flood
coat of the roof to better insure the life of the roof. Public Works Manager La Shot
noted, the disparity in the two bids could have been because one had materials on
hand. It was also noted, because the project cost was under $100,000, no
construction bond was required, however there was a guaranty in the contract.

no change. The Commission also heard a report regarding the funding for the next
portion of the work on the coastal trail project was forwarded through the Corps of
Engineers. Public Works Manager Komelis explained the Corps has a three-year
contract with another engineering firm to work for them. They are investigating
whether they can bypass the other engineering firm and use Peratrovich, Nottingham
& Drage, Inc. (PND). He noted, PND is working on a response to the agencies and all
their information, as well as the city's, would be forwarded to the Corps.
Discussion followed regarding the need for a Borough permit for the development of
the project. It was noted, the Borough recently took back partial authority on land
use planning and they also have coastal zone management authority, however it was
thought the Borough Planning Commission may not be as opposed to the project as
some of the state agencies.
Administration was requested to stay abreast of the progress of the project as it was
stated to be the city's first priority of this type of project.
D-4. Lib~ry Commi~io~ -- Moore reported the next meeting would be held
May 7, however he would be not be able to attend due to the budget work session also
scheduled for that evening.
D-5. Parks/l~ Recreation Commission -- Porter reported a meeting was held,
however there was no quorum. Williams stated he wanted to continue working toward
a long-term relationship with the Boys & Girls Club and discuss their involvement
with the city's recreation program prior to the forming of next year's budget. Bookey
agreed and stated he wanted to discuss the item further at their May 7 meeting.
D-6. Planning/l~ Zoning Commission -- Bannock noted he did not attend the
last meeting as he was at the budget work session held the same evening. He
reviewed the actions taken with the council, referring to the unapproved minutes
which were included in the packet.
Williams noted a summary of the information discussed and comments made at the
last community workshop on the Comprehensive Plan were also included in the
packet. He urged council to review the information and discuss it if they didn't agree
with the content. Bookey requested this information be discussed at the next council
meeting and Bannock requested a summary of the current draft status be included in
the packet. Bannock also noted the Planning & Zoning Commission would be
reviewing the Plan at their next meeting.
D-7. Miscellaneous Commissions and Committees

D-7b. Kenai Convention/~ Visitors Bureau Board -- Bookey noted the
approved minutes of the February 24 meetin§ were included in the packet. Refemn§
to discussion re§ardin§ pay phones at the Visitors Center, Swamer questioned the use
and cost of the pay phone at City Hall. Discussion followed whether the phone was
necessary and City Clerk Freas was requested to check on the amount of use, etc.
D-7c. Alaska Municipal League Report -- Williams reported he had just
returned from a trip to Juneau and while there discussed several matters with area
legislators and representatives of AML. He referred to information handed out at the
beginning of the meeting regarding proposed cuts to the state budget and suggested a
letter be forwarded to the Senate Finance Committee indicating council and
administration's concerns of the impacts to the city some of the cuts would have.
D-7d. Kenai Chamber of Commerce -- Cherie Brewer, President of the
Chamber reported on their "Get Hooked on Kenai" summer pro§ram to enhance the
small retail businesses in the city. To this end, a city tour map will be produced on
which businesses can purchase advertisin§ and receive a fish form to decorate and
display at their businesses. The Council was asked to purchase advertisin§ on the
back side of the map for $500.
Brewer also requested use of the small windowed space in the airport terminal to use
as an area where visitors could pick up information about area businesses, etc. It was
noted, the restaurant lessees opted not to use the space and it was therefore available.
Attorney Graves was asked if there would be a conflict with the airport's advertising
contract if brochures of area businesses were made available in that space. He
indicated he believed the space could be used for that purpose. Bookey stated he had
no objection to allowing the Chamber's use of the space for a year and if it works out,
continue that use.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Porter MOVED to donate the $500 from the present 'budget for the
advertising and the use of the space at the airport terminal for the year. Councilman
Bookey SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
Brewer also discussed the following:
Requested the city to consider using a local advertising agency to do the
advertising at the airport (it was noted the city had a ten-year contract with the
present contractor).
Requested a letter be sent to the legislators to encourage them not to
close the Captain Cook Park as it draws visitors into and through the city.
· Reported the annual community clean-up was scheduled for May 18.

City Manager Snow explained the Special Use Permit would allow Kenai Airport Fuel
Service to proceed with a ground water treatment plan required by the Department of
Environmental Conservation (DEC) and the city received DEC approval for the
remediation.
Public Works Manager La Shot explained the work would take place by Kenai Airport
Fuel Services and the city was giving permission to use the ditch area (shown on maps
included in the packet). La Shot also noted, he did not think the plume would migrate
to the front of the terminal and the project would slow migration of the plume. Bookey
requested administration monitor the work and the plume migration.

Discussion -- Schedule Board of Adjustment Hearing/Appeal of Planning
& Zoning Commission Denial of PZ02-15 Variance Permit for an
Oversized Sign at 9711 Kenai Spur Highway-- Challenger Learning
Center of Alaska.
Williams referred to the letter of appeal included in the packet and noted a request
had been made for council to make a site visit of the area. He added, council may
want to request the Planning & Zoning Commission investigate the inclusion of an
Educational Zone for large tracts of land. Graves reported the Commission had
a/ready discussed this issue and an ordinance was being drafted for an educational
zone.
Bannock explained, there were two issues requested from the Commission; a
Conditional Use Permit (which was approved) to allow for dormitories for students and
chaperones visiting the Challenger Learning Center. Graves noted, if this area were
included in an educational zone, the conditional use permit that was approved, would
no longer be required as the dormitories would be a permitted use. Bannock added,
the second issue was the oversized sign. Bookey stated he did not want to change the
sign ordinance to agree with the zone.
Discussion followed regarding Mayor Williams' participation in the discussion, vote, or
testifying in regard to the appeal due to his presidency of the Challenger Board.
Attorney Graves stated he would review the issue more, but felt initially Williams
should remove himself from participation on the Board of Adjustment. He added, he
would investigate further whether it would be appropriate for Williams to testify in
regard to the Challenger's request.
MOTION:
Councilman Bannock MOVED to hold the Board of Adjustment hearing immediately
prior to the next council meeting and Councilman Bookey SECONDED the motion.
Discussion followed regarding a site visit and it was agreed a site visit could be made
individually by the members of the Board of Adjustment. Bannock requested the
information included in the Planning & Zoning Commission packet be included in the
Board of Adjustment packet and encouraged members to visit the site.
VOTE:
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING

.There were no objections. SO ORDERED.
The Board of Adjustment hearing was set for 7'00 p.m., May 1, 2002, immediately
prior to the regularly scheduled council meeting.
Attorney Graves stated he agreed with comments made previously, that the Chair of
the Board of Adjustment (Williams) having declared a conflict, could participate as a
citizen at the Board of Adjustment hearing.
Because council wanted plenty of time to review the information and visit the site
individually, Clerk Freas stated she would make packets available for them on April
19, the day the certified ma/lings would need to be mailed.
H-8o
Discussion -- R&J Seafoods/Request for Reduction in Lease Rates
Bookey reported the item was discussed by the Harbor Commission, who, after a
lengthy discussion, made no recommendation to reduce the lease prices for the rented
spaces. It was also noted there are two stations leased to R&J Seafoods and both
those leases are due to expire October 1, 2002. R&J Seafoods is also leasing land area
and that lease will expire September 30, 2002.
Porter stated she was not in favor of reducing the lease rate, especially since the leases
expire in the fall. Bookey agreed and added, other fishing related industries are
paying their taxes and the leases at the dock are already subsidized and in
competition to other businesses. Moore stated he agreed with Porter and Bookey.
Bannock noted, it is a standard lease for the stations and that either the City or the
lessee can end the lease with proper notice.
Discussion followed as to whether the city employee need at the dock would be
reduced if R&J Seafoods decides to terminate their lease. It was explained the city's
station would continue to be open and the leasing of the other two stations has no
impact on the city's area of the dock. Also, if the lessee terminates the lease, the
fishers who have unloaded at those stations would make arrangements to use other
commercial docks. Kornelis reported he discussed the Commission's comments with
the lessee and it was indicated they would continue to operate at the dock.
Williams suggested the policy of the dock should be discussed at the May 7 work
session as well.
Council made no reduction to the lease rate.
H-9.
Discussion -- Local Improvement District -- Pillars Subdivision/Report to
Council.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
APRIL 17, 2002
PAGE 13
Refemng to her memorandum which was included in the packet, Snow noted the cost
percentage proposed for this assessment district is 25% of the project costs, however
council may consider revising the percentage cost allocation of Municipal Matching
Grant Funds since there are many more street improvement project areas in the
community than there is available grant money to fund. It was also noted, the total
estimated cost of the project was $196,000.
Snow added, the actual project costs would be assessed after completion of the project
and Administration agrees with the scope of the improvements to include grading and
backfill, drainage, paving, topsoil and seeding, and signage. A resolution to set the
initial public hearing on the proposed assessment district will be prepared for the May
1 meeting for council consideration.
Discussion followed in which it was noted $687,000 was in the grant funds account.
Because less funds are being received from the state, it was suggested the 25%
assessment should be increased. Bannock stated his concerns that road projects had
been done over the years at different levels of assessment and the assessment
percentage was set to add consistency and raising the percentage may discourage
participation in using the program. It was also pointed out, the code requirement
when the petition was submitted, stated 25%, however it was also suggested
discussion on whether to raise the percentage should be added to the items to
consider at the May 7 work session.
Moore asked if there had been any other petitions for forming an assessment district
for paving been received and Clerk Freas answered one other petition had been taken
out for Dolchok and Cub Court. The.petition had not yet been returned.
Snow reported Administration would be reviewing and updating its street inventory of
unpaved and street improvement projects and copies of that will be forwarded to
council for review.
Administration was requested to bring the resolution forward to set the public hearing
date at the May 1 meeting.
ITEM I:
REPORT OF THE MAYOR-- No report.
ITEM J'
ADMINISTRATION REPORTS
J-1. City Manager -- City Manager Snow reported on the following items'
· Police Chief Dan Morris submitted his resignation, effective May 31,
2002. She and Chief Moms discussed the process of recruiting a replacement. In the
interim of appointing a new Chief (or a new Chief not being able to begin work by June

KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
APRIL 17, 2002
PAGE 14
Snow added, in her past city manager positions, she enlisted help from an advisory
committee in the hiring process and had requested participation of the Finance and
Library Director, the Fire Chief and Vice Mayor Swarner in that effort. She requested
comments from council. Snow also noted, draft advertisements, etc. will be discussed
soon at the first committee meeting. Council's consensus was council members
should not get involved in the hiring process and that it was the responsibility of the
city manager who has full authority to handle the matter. It was also suggested the
city manager's assistant help with the process.
· Referring to information included in the packet, it was reported a
personal use fishery program for the south side of the River was decided. Unless
council objects, a draft ordinance appropriating funds to provide for implementing the
program would be brought forward for council's review and consideration in the next
packet. Some grant funds will be used to provide portable toilets, signage, and
fencing, etc. A fee will be charged to fishery users and a draft letter requesting
additional funding from Fish & Game was included for council's review.
Swarner reported there may be cuts to the Fish & Game budget and aides for policing
the area may be e!i__minated. Porter asked if Fish & Game representatives had walked
the area and it was reported no specific date had been set on which to do that. It was
also noted the Borough Assembly had approved some funding toward the effort,
however the city will have to request reimbursement.
Discussion returned to the use of a council member on the review committee for the
police chief replacement. Bookey asked if the city manager could ask for a council
member to be involved in the process. Snow stated she would not be requesting
council involvement.
Questions were referred to department heads:
Airport Manager Cronkhite was asked if Penn Air was included in the
enplanements and she answered only scheduled airlines are included. She added, she
had been working with Penn Air, Illiamna Air, etc. to share their flight information as
it affects the airport entitlements.
· Cronkhite explained, council requested the Airport Commission to
prepare a survey to send to users of the airport. The Commission was asking council
to forward questions to them they would like included in the survey.
· In regard to the Homeland Security funding request she forwarded to the
Legislature, Cronkhite reported she was informed the request was received.
· The ground breaking date for the juvenile facility has tentatively been set
for May 9.
Comments/questions were directed to Public Works Manager Komelis as follows'

Can signage be placed at the stairway down to the beach from South
Forest Drive, encouraging users to use the stairway and not the trail beside it as the
trail area was eroding.
· There is erosion from the storm water runoff by the attorney's office in
Old Town.
· Will he continue to work on the unused vehiCle matter and he reported
the Borough has indicated they would allow the city to dispose of 20 vehicles by June
30, 2002 and another 20 through June 30, 2003. The Borough will not allow the city
to store the vehicles on their property as they found it to be very costly, and because
in the past, there were environmental and vandalism problems.
Comments/questions to Parks & Recreation Director Frates were as follows:
· The fence and gate would continue around the skateboard park.
Parks & Recreation Commission will address the matter again.
The
J-2. Attorney -- Attorney Graves reported he would be attending the Alaska
Financial Officers Conference in Wasilla to present the city's program in acquiring
payment of city citations through garnishment of Permanent Fund checks.

Kenai Comprehensive Plan - Draft Chapter 2
Goals and Objectives for Community Planning
The Goals and Objectives for the City of Kenai Comprehensive Plan are being
developed with input from the citizens of Kenai, the Planning and Zoning Commission,
city staff, and elected officials. The first step toward development of the Goals and
Objectives was a Strategic Planning Workshop, whose results are presented in this
draft document. This draft will be available for review and comment by the general
public, the Planning and Zoning Commission, and city officials.
The Strategic Planning Workshop
The City sponsored a Strategic Planning Workshop, conducted by the consultant team,
at the Kenai Senior Citizens' Center on October 27, 2001. In response to an open
public invitation to participate, about 80 local citizens met together to identify the values
and goals they held for Kenai and its future. Workshop participants were organized into
work groups of six persons each. Work group members were invited to develop values
and goals for each of three planning topics'
· Quality of Life' the positive experience of day-to-day life in Kenai
· Land Use: the desirable Pattern of land uses within the city, and location of major
public and private facilities and land uses
· Public Improvements and Services: the community facilities and services desired
to support existing and ongoing development.
·
After the work ~roups recorded their statements of values and goals, each work group
reported its results to the group as a whole. The reports rewalod that tho indi¥idual
work §roups sham0 many common ideas about what they valuod about Kenai today,
and about what they hoped Konai might become. Whilo thero was broad consensus on
many themes, different perspectives emerged on some issues.
After the workshop, the consultant team reviewed all the work group reports. The
consultant team organized the content of the reports into this draft statement of
community planning goals and objectives. As this document undergoes further local
review and discussion, it is expected that it will be expanded, revised and refined into a
more accurate and comprehensive statement of the community planning goals and
objectives supported by the citizens of Kenai.
As noted above, the Strategic Planning Workshop focused workshop discussion on
three planning topics - quality of life, land use, public improvements. In reality, these
topics often overlap and interact. As a result, the goals and objective statements
produced at the workshop often touched on two or even three topics. For clarity, this
draft statement of goals and is organized according to major planning themes
expressed by workshop participants.

Kenai Comprehensive Plan - Draft Chapter 2
Goals and Objectives for Community Planning
The Goals and Objectives for the City of Kenai Comprehensive Plan are being
developed with input from the citizens of Kenai, the Planning and Zoning Commission,
city staff, and elected officials. The first step toward development of the Goals and
Objectives was a Strategic Planning Workshop, whose results are presented in this
draft document. This draft will be available for review and comment by the general
public, the Planning and Zoning Commission, and city officials.
The Strategic Planning Workshop
The City sponsored a Strategic Planning Workshop, conducted by the consultant team,
at the Kenai Senior Citizens' Center on October 27, 2001. In response to an open
public invitation to participate, about 80 local citizens met together to identify the values
and goals they held for Kenai and its future. Workshop participants were organized into
work groups of six persons each. Work group members were invited to develop values
and goals for each of three planning topics:
· Quality of Life' the positive experience of day-to-day life in Kenai
· Land Use' the desirable pattern of land uses within the city, and location of major
public and private facilities and land uses
· Public Improvements and Services' the community facilities and services desired
to support existing and ongoing development.
After the work groups recorded their statements of values and goals, each work group
reported its results to the group as a whole. The reports revealed that the individual
work groups shared many common ideas about what they valued about Kenai today,
and about what they hoped Kenai might become. While there was broad consensus on
many themes, different perspectives emerged on some issues.
After the workshop, the consultant team reviewed all the work group reports. The
consultant team organized the content of the reports into this draft statement of
community planning goals and objectives. As this document undergoes further local
review and discussion, it is expected that it will be expanded, revised and refined into a
more accurate and comprehensive statement of the community planning goals and
objectives supported by the citizens of Kenai.
As noted above, the Strategic Planning Workshop focused workshop discussion on
three planning topics- quality of life, land use, public improvements. In reality, these
topics often overlap and interact. As a result, the goals and objective statements
produced at the workshop often touched on two or even three topics. For clarity, this
draft statement of goals and is organized according to major planning themes
expressed by workshop participants.

Investment Report
At March 31, 2002 the City had investments with a market value of $33,454,037.01, which is down about
$2 million from a year ago. The portfolio yield is 3.98% compared to 6.00% last year and 4.69% last
quarter. The breakdown of types of investments held is:
US Agency Securities
AML Investment Pool
Bank Balance
$32,091,390.68
$ 752,834.21
$ 609,812.12
Interest rates on two-year securities have fluctuated in the range of 3.11% to 3.98% in the last quarter.
Rates appear to be on a slight upward trend; however, current events affect rates in unpredictable ways.
The City's portfolio is now heavily populated with securities yielding less than 3.5%. ,As rotes climb these
securities will drop in value producing a double whammy on interest revenue. First, it is bad enough to
have rates this Iow. Second, accounting rules require adjusting the portfolio to its market value at year-
end and recording the change as interest revenue; in this case negative interest revenue. The attached '
report shows that the current market value of the portfolio is less than the market value at June 30, 2001.
Individual securities that were owned at June 30, 2001 (note the purchase date) have generally increased
in value, because rotes are still below June 30 levels. However, securities purchased more recently have
market values less than cost because rotes have been increasing lately. Over time these adjustments to
interest revenue will wash each other out, but the impact in any given year can be significant.
My base strategy of investing these funds is to buy and hold. As cash is available I invest it at the best
rotes 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 rotes 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 meet cash flow or 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.

Subject:
Assisted Living
The council had asked the administration to compile information about
assisted living, specifically to research what Alaskan cities of our size have
contributed towards an assisted living and what part did they play. Attached
to this memo is the information compiled to date.
From the information
recommendations'
collected thus far, I would make the following
Continue researching the assisted living concept
Through the council on aging and/or a committee comprised of Kenai
citizens, and/or other human service agencies, come up with a
"conceptual facility" and answer other concerns that may need to be
addressed.
· Research non-profit corporations that might be interested in parmering
with the city to build an assisted living facility.
· The city partner with an agency or non-profit corporation and allow
the non-profit to manage the facility.

Report to Kenai Ci,ty Council on Assisted Living in Kenai
. The administration has been asked to research other cities in Alaska of similar population
in regards to assisted living facilities. How have other cities our size supported the
concept of assisted living? Have they provided ftmd~g, land. support?
What is the definition of assisted living?
The assisted living federation of America (ALFA) defines an assisted living residence as
a combination of housing, personalized supportive services and health care designed to
meet the needs, both scheduled and unscheduled, of those who need help with activities
of daily living (dressing, eating, assistance with meds. etc.).
The philosophy of assisted living emphasizes the right of the individual to choose the
setting for care and services. Assisted living customers share the risks and
responsibilities for their daffy activities and well-being with a staff geared to helping
them enjoy the freedom and independence of private living. Assisted living residences
have adopted the philosophy of"aging in place" which allows customers to remain at the
residence as long as the care staff can properly provide for their health, safety and well-
being.
Patricia Atkinson, associate coordinator for Alaska rural assisted living development has
stated:
"Kenai is probably the biggest highway community in the state that has no hospital and
only one assisted living home. Kenai could be compared to Wasilla, which is adjacent to
Palmer where a hospital is located. Wasilla has 7 assisted living homes, for a total of 32
beds. Kenai currently has one assisted living home (Mary Nicholson's), which has 5
beds. Of course, you would have to look carefully at the whole Kenai---there are assisted
living homes in Sterling, Kasilof, and Homer, too. Homer is another interesting place to
look at. They have a hospital, 25 nursing home beds, and 62 assisted living home beds.~
AHFC commissioned a market study last year to examine the need on the whole Kenai
Peninsula. According to that study, there is probably a demand for assisted living in
Kenai for 7- 16 units by 2006.
Wasilla Seniors are investigating assisted living at this time. They believe they have a
market just from the independent seniors that already live on their own campus. You
may be able to use that same justification."
There are very few publicly-owned assisted living homes. Barrow has the only non-
Pioneer home operated by a public entity.

Doreen Knodel
Capacity 11
The facility was paid for through borough funds. The Borough runs the facility,
however, it is trying to go through the very tenacious process of handing it over to the
native corporation. They would like to increase the bed capacity to 24. This facility has
a very high acuity level of care.
Marrulut Eniit Assisted Living
125 "D" St., E
Dillingham, AK 99576
Capacity 15
Marilyn Casteek Administrator
The facility was organized by 5 community organizations. The City donated the land.
The facility was paid for through grants. The facility only accepts only individuals on a
fixed income. This would include medicade and GRM recepients. The capacity is 15,
however, currently there are only 7 very high acuity residents. The staff are personal care
attendants with a nurse on call from Hospice.
The Marilyn Casteel has stated that it is very hard for natives to be in skilled nursing
homes outside of the villages. Until this assisted living facility was built, natives had to
travel to Anchorage to receive care in a skilled nursing facility or an assisted living home.
This is why this facility was built; to keep natives in their village, with their culture.
However, she went on to state, "A home close to home is still not home" to our natives.

SUBJECT: 2001 Annual Report
During 2001 the departmem experienced a 10% increase in calls for sendce fi'om 2000 levels.
The criminal offense statistics are compiled in categories using the Federal Uniform Crime
Report system (UCR). The UCR categories are separated into three parts, Part I, II and III. In
2001 there was a slight increase in Part I crimes, a 30% increase in Part II and a 40% increase in
Part III crimes. The total reported crimes increased 25% from 2000 levels.
· Arrests in 2001 increased 29% compared to 2000.
· Traffic collisions have increased 47% from 2000 levels.
This report includes statistics for a three-year period (1999-2001) for comparison purposes.
Last year was a challenge to maintain police response to requests while being short of personnel..
In April 2001 David Vroman retired, in May Tommy Carver transferred to the Fire Department
and Jeff Whannel resigned for a career change. Doyle Oldham was hired back as a temporary
police officer for three months during the summer and David Vroman filled the dipnet fishery
police officer position.
There were several negative results due.to the increased service requests and lack of personnel.
A higher portion of the overtime budget has been expended to provide shitt coverage and fulfill
other responsibilities. Many times fewer officers were assigned to shifts to save overtime. This
resulted in adding to the workload of the on duty personnel. Normally the department is able to
conduct D.A.R.E. classes without using overtime. That was not the case in 2001.
Typically the deparmaent will transfer personnel from the Investigations Unit to Patrol to
maintain call response capabilities. With fewer investigators, the investigative function shifts to
the patrol officers. When the patrol officer spends time conducting investigations, we do not
have a police presence on the roadways or in neighborhoods. Active patrol efforts normally
result in: increased compliance with traffic laws, identifying drivers with suspended licenses,
criminal warrants and identifying drivers possessing or using alcohol and drugs. The mount of
time officers spend on patrol has dropped from 40% of total work hours in 1991 to 18% in 2001.
DATE' April 11, 2002
SUBJECT:
2001 Annual Report
We saw an increase in traffic enforcement contacts in 2001 from 2000 levels. This was due to an
Alaska Highway Safety grant that provided overtime for enforcement. Without the grant, traffic
enforcement would have been below 2000 levels. That grant ends on April 30, 2002.
Additional overtime for traffic enforcement and shift coverage is not the solution for providing
police services over the long term. Burnout of officers is a reality and has been a contributing
factor to personnel losses in the recent past.
Fewer officers in the Investigations Unit also reduces our ability to conduct drug enforcement.
Prior to eliminating one officer position in 1997, the departxnent was able to actively participate
with'the Kenai Peninsula Drug Unit. Currently our participation with the unit entails providing
intelligence and participating in serving drug related warrants.
Drug abuse is present in our community. The negative results of illegal drug use include;
increased health costs, increases in emergency ambulance responses, driving under the influence
of drugs, crimes committed under the influence of drugs, crimes committed to support addiction,
child neglect and child welfare issues. Effective drug enforcement is only part of the solution
but an important responsibility of police departments.
Having sufficient personnel and resources to conduct quality criminal investigations is critical to
our mission.
The Kenai Prosecutors Office has a limited staff to handle cases submitted by law enforcement
agencies from the entire Kenai Peninsula. They cannot prosecute all the cases they receive, so
they must have criteria to decide which cases to prosecute. One of those criteria is the quality of
the investigation. This places us in competition with other law enforcement agencies to submit
high quality cases.
Maintaining an acceptable level of quality work and timely response to requests for service in
Kenai during 2001 was very challenging. Since the 16th officer position was added in 1989, calls
for service have increased 32%. When the department is sufficiently staffed and trained by this
fall, I would expect the following results'
1. An increase in patrol time.
2. Increased traffic enforcement to include snow machine enforcement.
3. InCreased crime prevention activities.
4. Maintain quality of investigations.
Statistics during the first quarter of 2002 indicate the department will have a busier year than
2001.

ARRESTS
Arrests are not always an accurate measurement of activity for the following reasons:
1. 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 always counted.
4. Warrant arrests made by Kenai police officers for offenses committed elsewhere is
included in the Part III category.
In 2001 there were 961 arrests, compared to 685 in 2000, a 29% increase (see table of arrests).

2001 POLICE ACTIVITIES REPORT
COMMUNITY PROGRAMS
o:' D.A.R.E.
The Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) program continues to receive support from the
children, parents, teachers, and administrators involved in the program. The Youth Services
officer presents the program to five 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.A.R.E. program to the 7th
grade students at the Kenai Middle School. This program reinforces lessons taught at the 5th
grade level.
o~o 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 fi'om 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, they are able to assist local police agencies with
minor tasks.
· :. S.A.R.T.
In October 1998 the Sexual Assault Response Team (S.A.R.T.) became operational at the
Central Peninsula General Hospital (CPGH)., Prior to that sexual assault victims were
transported to South Peninsula Hospital in Homer for a S.A.R.T. exam. In 1997 a S.A.R.T
steering committee was established to pursue instituting a S.A.R.T. program at CPGH. The
steering committee consisted of members from the local Law Enforcement Agencies, District
Attorneys Office, Kenai Women's Crisis Cemer and CPGH. The committee obtained a state
grant to purchase some examination equipment and CPGH provided additional equipment and
examination rooms.
The program has provided better service to victims and reduced costs associated with
transporting victims to Homer.
· :o Other Programs
During 2001 officers have provided crime prevention presentations on a variety of subjects
including: .home security, robbery prevention, drug use, motor vehicle laws and bicycle safety.'
The East Aliak Neighborhood Watch Program continues to interact with the police department.
In 2001 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, Cook Inlet
Council on Drugs and Alcohol, Kenai Care Center, Kenai Peninsula Youth Detention Facility,
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.
The Kenai Police Depamuent appoints an officer to serve as the police coordinator for the
Central Peninsula Crime Stoppers program.

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; answering point for Central Peninsula
Crime Stoppers; 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 eight personnel including the dispatch supervisor. It
usually takes four to six months to train a new dispatcher to fianction on his or her own.
ANIMAL CONTROL
During 2001 animal control officers handled 1509 animals and euthanized 695 animals (see -
attached report). The shelter has maintained several long-term volunteers that allow the officers
more time to respond to service requests.
SUMMARY
In 2001 Kenai experienced an increase in most crime categories. These numbers reflect a
peninsula wide upward crime trend.
There are a number of factors that affect the volume and type of crime occurring:
Composition of the population, particularly youth concentration
· Economic conditions and job availability
· Effective strength and emphasis of law enforcement.
· Policies of other components of the criminal justice system (i.e. prosecutorial, judicial,
correctional and probational).
· Crime reporting practices of the citizenry.
In September of 1998 the Kenai Peninsula Drug Enforcement unit began operation. This unit
receives 75% funding from a federal grand and a 25% match shared by the municipalities on the
peninsula. The drug grant was renewed for 2001.
In 2002 the Kenai Police Department, Communications Department and Animal Control will
remain responsive to community needs and strive to provide the best possible services to the
citizens of Kenai.

Land Sale- Inlet Woods Subdivision Lots
Property_ Information
The City of Kenai has approximately fifty-six (56) residential lots for sale in Inlet Woods
Subdivision. The lots are located in a neighborhood zoned Suburban Residential (RS),
approximately two miles to the north and west of the downtown Kenai commercial district.

Drive.
The properties and their minimum sale prices are described in the Index of Sale Parcels that is
included in this package. Lot sizes are 7,885 sq. fi. to 22,604 sq. fi. Prices range between $9,800

Streets within the subdivision are paved and improved with curbs and gutters. Public water and
sewer utilities are stubbed to the lot line. Based on information received from the utility
companies, telephone and natural gas are available to all of the properties and cable television is
available to some of the properties. Most of the lots have electric connections, but some of the
lots either need short electrical extensions or are located within cost-sharing areas where a
portion of previous extension costs must be paid when and if the lots are connected. Lot 8, Block
11 has only public water and sewer and natural gas available. The City does not warrant nor
make any representation as to the availability of, nor cost of, extending these utilities. Buyers are
