BUDGET WORK SESSION
KENAI CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS
APRIL 19, 2004
6:00 P.M.
VICE MAYOR JAMES C. BOOKEY~ III~ PRESIDING

John Williams
Carol Freas, Linda Snow, Cary Graves, Ewa Jankowska, Scott

Cronkhite, Bob Frates
Vice Mayor Bookey opened the work session at approximately 6:02 p.m. Finance
Director Semmens noted $13,000 had been added back into the budget during the
April 12 work session through consensus of the council. Discussion followed in which
some council stated they felt the consensus was to add the amounts into the budget,
but all the changes would be reviewed at the end of the work sessions at which time it
would be determined the ramifications of the suggested changes and whether the
changes should stay in. Bookey suggested a fourth work session be added to review
all changes made, etc.
Finding: Consensus of council was to list suggested changes which would be
reviewed after review of the entire budget. The list could then be prioritized and a
consensus would be used to decide whether the changes should remain or not. It
would take four members to agree to add a change to the list which will be discussed
at the end of the work sessions.
Airport Funds:
Airport Land System Special Revenue Fund
· M&O -- Airport Manager Cronkhite and Operations Supervisor Hicks
reviewed this budget and discussed the request for funds to purchase a
tractor/mower/brushhog and the merits in doing so. Discussion also took place
regarding sale of airport lands versus leasing, and what the minimum fund balance
should be.
Findings: Council consensus was not to make any changes to this budget and to
discuss the fund balance minimum during a work session.
· Administration-- Cronkhite reviewed the budget. Highlights of
discussion included transportation increase, insurance costs and advertising, i.e. the
Milepost advertisement.
BUDGET WORK SESSION
APRIL 19, 2004
PAGE 2
Findings: Council consensus was to remove the $3,000 for the Milepost
advertisement and to add the $3,000 for the advertisement on the list of suggested
expenditures. There were no other changes.
· Airport Land--
Findings:
There were no changes.
· Airport Terminal -- Cronkhite noted the contract for wall/sign
advertisements in the terminal would end in three years and there are local
businesses in the community who are not pleased with the company because of the
high cost for the advertising space.
Findings:
There were no changes.
Senior Center Funds:
Senior Citizens Title IIII Grant Fund -- Director Craig reported the in-kind match had
to be raised which was covered by the increase in the rate of rentals.
Findings:
There were no changes.
Choice Waiver Fund
Findings:
There were no changes.
Senior Citizens Borough Grant Fund -- It was noted the fund balance continually
increases in this fund. It was noted, the fund balance is used to cover the purchase of
vehicles or pay utilities, i.e. items not paid for by the General Fund.
Findings:
There were no changes.
Congregate Housing Enterprise Fund -- Craig noted the estimated cost for
maintenance to the siding of the building is $125,000. Council discussed the need to
have the work done and whether it should be held until next year. It was noted the
cost of maintenance could be paid for by the housing's equipment replacement fund
which would take approximately three years to build back up after this expenditure.
Findings: Council consensus was to put the building siding maintenance on the
list and bring back to council as much information as possible for their review, i.e.
what will $125,000 buy, will the process include sandblasting or steam, etc. Vintage
Pointe building maintenance needs will be included on the building maintenance
schedule. There were no other changes.

rate to fund forthcoming projects. A lengthy discussion followed related to printing
and binding costs for the Consumer Confidential Reports (CCR's) and the budgeted
purchase of a new vactor truck.
Findings: Consensus of council was for the budgeted amount for printing of CCR's
be left in the budget but to do the project in the cheapest manner (which could be
doing in-house) and to remove the vactor truck purchase from this budget.

BUDGE~ WORK SESSION
APRIL 19, 2004
PAGE 4
Recreation -- Director Frates reviewed' the budget and noted funds were
included for the purchase of a new snow machine for trail grooming. Porter suggested
the funds for this purchase be taken from the Daubenspeck account.
Findings: Place the funding of the snow machine (Recreation or Daubenspeck
account) on the list, though the machine will be purchased. No other changes to this
budget.
· Parks -- The addition of sidewalks to Memorial Park were discussed.
Frates reported he had received an estimate of $30,000 which would add two loops
and an extended sidewalk. Those funds were removed from the draft budget, however.
Porter and Swarner suggested a compromise of $15,000. Gilman and Moore agreed.
Findings: Consensus of council was to add $15,000 to the list for placement of
additional sidewalks at Memorial Park. Frates is to bring back the cost for one loop.
There were no other changes.

Budget Scenario's
There are three General Fund budget scenario's represented by the attached.
1. The first is to reflect the items proposed in the worksessions. There is $83,200 in
additional appropriations and a reduction of $62,078 in revenue from Congregate
Housing. This increases the FY 2005 deficit and decreases the available fund
balance.
2. The second includes the above and the COLA is reduced to 5%. Since this
reduces appropriations by about $90,000 the deficit is reduced and available fund
balance is increased.
3. The third includes the above and reduces the mill rate to 4. This reduces revenue,
therefore the deficit increases and available fund balance decreases.
If you have other scenario's that you would like to see the numbers on, please call
me as soon as possible.

1) 1996 was the last year that Kenai was close to the Ane CPI on biannual CPI
adjustments to pay scales. It was also the year Kenai last did a salary survey of
municipalities that was approved and implemented by Council.
2) Both Kenai and Soldotna during these years made downward adjustments in the
medical plans of the employees and dependems.
~ Soldotna is presently in salary negotiations with its unionized employees.
* Soldoma actually gave a .40/hr raise to its employees, and a .20/hr raise to upper
management employees..40/hr = .02 on $20/hr and. 15 on $30.

March 30, 2004
AP-36
The primary job of the 1987 Ford Tractor, AP-36, is to cut the brush on the
Airport grounds, and its average work year is 90 to 120 days. This tractor is of
European manufacturer, and all parts are ordered from Pioneer Tractor in
Palmer. Since the parts come from overseas, the average parts order takes four
to six weeks for delivery. This potentially places the tractor out of service during
critical times.
We have been encountering about a five-percent obsolete part problem and have
to find good used pads wherever possible. The average maintenance cost for
120-day usage is $1,500 to $1,600 not including the down time. Therefore, I
strongly recommend that the Airport replace this unit while we can still get a fair
price for it.
Water and Sewer Fund
Replacement of 1984 Vactor Truck
1. The cab and chassis of our existing truck has 20 years of wear and tear.
2. The water tank was rebuilt 9 years ago, and it is ready to be rebuilt again.
Nine years ago, it cost around $45,000. At that time, we could have
purchased a new truck for around $171,000. Now it will cost $247,000.
3. The City of Kenai can piggyback a City & Borough of Juneau bid (prior to
July 31, 2004) to get the truck for $247,000.
.
It is estimated that with the new emissions laws and the sharp increase in
the price of steel, the price will increase an estimate of $7,000 if we wait
another year.
5. The main water pump needs to be replaced or rebuilt at an estimated cost
of $7-9,000.
6. The debris tank needs to be sandblasted and recoated again at an
estimated cost of $ 5,000.00.
7. Our existing truck is the smallest truck Vactor made in 1984. We spend a
large amount of time filling and emptying the truck that could be used in
cleaning lines. The truck is too small to be efficient in our cleaning
operations. The truck's manual transmission has to be constantly shifted
because of the nature of the work being done causing additional concern
of continuing the use of our old truck.
.
Our existing truck is approximately 80% maximum axle load when empty,
and it is grossly overloaded when the debris tank is full. We have an
overload permit for this truck, but even then the truck cannot be operated
with full a load.
9. There are no contractors available to clean sewer lines. There are some
suction and pumping trucks in this area but nothing that can clean lines.
The local contractor does not like the waste we pull out of the sewer lines
because it plugs their truck and rocks can blow their impellor.
10. If we do not purchase a new truck, we need to add at least $14,000.00 for
repairs to make it through another year. If we have problems with the
blower motor or the water tank the costs could be closer to $30 or
$40,000.00.

Health Insurance
Health insurance costs have increased.
To offset some of the increase, last year
employees contributed about $50,000 to
the cost of health insurance premiums. A
few years ago the deductibles and co-
payments were increased saving about
$50,000 per year in premium expense.
The combination of these two items could
cost an employee as much as $1,556 per
year depending on claims. Note that on
the median salary this represents about
3.3%, so it can be said that nearly all of
the COLA's since FY97, for some
people, has gone to cover the employees
portion of health insurance cost increases.
PERS
Since FY 1997, PERS rates have fluctuated from 2.04% to 8.67% for FY
2005. With few exceptions, the PERS rate that the City paid since 1990
is less than the social security rate paid in the private sector and by many
public sector employers including the Borough. The City opted out of
social security in 1981, saving the City a significant amount of money.
For CY 2004 the rate and limit for social security is 6.2% on the first
$87,900 of wages (a maximum of $5,450). If the City were participating
in social security, it would have cost an additional $300,000 in FY 2004.
Employees do not contribUte to social security, but they do contribute
6.75% to 7.50% to PERS. The City contributes 4% of salary up to
$37,500, which is a maximum of $1,500 per employee, to a 40lA plan
on behalf of the employees. The budget for this is $135,000 in FY 2004.
This program was started in 1984 at 2%. In 1990 it was adjusted to the
current level, which was equivalent to the social security rate and limit at
that time.

AIRPORT OPTIONS
The Airport Special Revenue Fund is spending fund
balance at an unsustainable rate. The fund is
negatively affected by lower passenger counts and
lower interest revenue.
Interest revenue could be enhanced by changing
investment policy to allow higher yielding securities.
Generally speaking higher yield will .carry higher'
risk. Professional investment management is also an
option if investment policy is changed.
After payroll, the biggest expense is central
administrative costs. This could be adjusted.

the city to retain qualified people at a lower cost (the city wouldn't be paying PERS or

meet requirements and the option will be sunsetted in 2005.

Williams: Is there anyone from the general public wishing to be heard on this
particular ordinance? This is an ordinance that will allow employees, both present
and furore, as I understand it, to opt out of the provisions of the Public Employment
Retirement System. It's being done for a couple of purposes and I know our finance
director has been through this thoroughly. Would you mind if we have our tin,ce
director... ---
Snow: No.
Williams:
· ..maybe brief us just briefly on the reason for the ordinance.
Semmens: Mr. Mayor, members of the council and public. The reason for the
ordinance is simply to allow the city this option. The city and the employees this
option. Our code currently doesn't allow it. State law does allow it. I believe it was
House Bill 242 that was passed, I can't remember if it was last session or a previous
session, but allow it due to the shortage of folks available, qualified people available
and what it does for the City of Kenai, what it can potentially do for us is allow us to
retain qualified people at essentially a lower cost because ff they opt out of the
insurance program, for example, because they have insurance under their state
retirement, then, of course, we would not be paying that. We also would not be paying
their PERS contribution. Now, currently our, the PERS contribution is less than social
security, but there's a question about whether or not we'd even have to pay social
security. We're, we're researching some of these things. But, this ordinance would
just make it possible in the event that it's, that it's absolutely found to be in the best
interest of the city to do this.
Williams: Any questions from the general public? Anyone wishing to be heard? All
fight, any questions from the council? Councilman Bookey.
Bookey: Thank you Mr. Mayor. Explain to me then, on a new hire, is a new hire
going to have the option to go PERS or to go social security?
Semmens: No, no, there's a couple of things here. One is that they have to be
eligible for normal retirement. So, only in the event of a new hire having already
satisfied all the requirements of retiree...
Bookey: Okay.
Semmens: ...in other words, they'd have to be vested. They'd have to be a certain
age. Ail those requirements would have to be met before they could...
Bookey:
beginning...
So, so this is not an option to new hires that are starting out at the
Semmens: Normally not...normally it would not be and another thing, there is a
sunset to this in state law of, I don't remember exactly the date, but it's I think, 2007
or it might be 2005. But anyway, it's only a couple of year's window here that this,
this can take place. Although, if a person elected it, they would be eligible for it, of
course, until they quit.
Bookey: Okay, okay, cause I don't want to see us up in the system of a two-
leveled organization.
Williams- Let me ask a question. Supposing that a retiree, having already retired
from public service, came in and applied for a job and we decided to hire them under
the present system. Normally speaking, that retiree cannot have contributions made
on his behalf or her behalf to the pension system since they are already retired. Is
that correct?
Semmens: That's correct.
Williams:
Are we still required to make contributions to the system...
Semmens: No.
Williams:
...not on their behalf, but just to the system.
Semmens: None. No.

option. Our code currently doesn't allow it. State law does allow it. I believe it was
House Bill 242 that was passed, I can't remember if it was last session or a previous
session, but allow it due to the shortage of folks available, qualified people available
and what it does for the City of Kenai, what it can potentially do for us is allow'us to
retain qualified people at essentially a lower cost because if they opt out of the
inSUrance program, for example, because they have insurance under their state
retirement, then, of course, we would not be paying that. We also would not be paying
their PERS contribution. Now, currently our, the PERS contribution is less than social
security, but there's a question about whether or not we'd even have to pay social
security. We're, we're researching some of these things. But, this ordinance would
just make it possible in the event that it's, that it's absolutely found to be in the best
interest of the city to do this.
Williams: Any questions from the general public? Anyone wishing to be heard? All
right, any questions froTM the council? Councilman Bookey.
Bookey: Thank you Mr. Mayor. Explain to me then, on a new hire, is a new hire
going to have the option to go PERS or to go social security?
Se_m_mens: No, no, there's a couple of things here. One is that they have to be
eligible for normal retirement. So, only in the event of a new hire having already
satisfied all the requirements of retiree...
Bookey: Okay.
Semmens: ...in other words, they'd have to be vested. They'd have to be a certain
age. All those requirements would have to be met before they could...
Bookey:
beg/nning...
So, so this is not an option to new hires that are starting out at the
Semmens- Normally not...normally it would not be and another thing, there is a
sunset to this in state law of, I don't remember exactly the date, but it's I think, 2007
or it might be 2005. But anyway, it's only a couple of year's window here that this,
this can take place. Although, ff a person elected it, they would be eligible for it, of
course, until they quit.
Bookey: Okay, okay, cause I don't want to see us up in the system of a two-
leveled organization.
Williams: Let me ask a question. Supposing that a retiree, having already retired
from public service, came in and applied for a job and we decided to hire them under
the present system. Normally speatdng, that retiree cannot have contributions made
on his behalf or her behalf to the pension system since they are a/ready retired. Is
that correct?
Semmens:
That's correct.
Williams:
Are we still required to make contributions to the system...
Semmens: No.
Williams:
...not on their behalf, but just to the system.
Semmens: None. No.
Williams:
roll.
Okay. All fight. Questions. Seeing no further questions, Clerk, call the
VOTE:
Moore Yes Porter Absent Jackman Yes
MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.

The work session opened at approximately 6'04 p.m. Mayor Williams gave an update
on the Pebble Mine Project and suggested a reception be planned for 60-80 people,
including all the contractors, company officials, Chambers of Commerce
representatives, elected officials, etc. He also suggested the contractors and company
officials be toured around the area, including the airport facilities and perhaps Rig
Tenders Dock, etc. Williams suggested the cost for the reception be split between the
Airport and General Funds. Williams added, he'd like the reception scheduled as soon
as possible.
General Fund, Continued:
· Library -- Jankowska reviewed the budget and its changes from the
current budget, i.e. increases in books, funds for replacement of two computers,
increase in travel, increase in Miscellaneous.
Porter suggested $5,000 be taken from the travel budget and the removal of additional
library hours as she wanted to fred funds for additional overtime in the Police
Department budget and dust control applications.
A brief discussion took place relating to lapse and cuts made in the current year's
budget.
Bookey stated he also would like to cut funds in travel and the 290 additional hours.
Swarner and Gilman stated their preference to have the library open on Sundays. It
was pointed out, opening the library on Sundays would require a half-time position
and $25,000 to cover those salary costs.
Bob Peters -- Stated his support of the library budget and noted the participation of
the Friends of the Library and volunteer program helps to support the library and in
doing so, there is less requested from the General Fund.
Findings- Consensus was to not fund Sunday openings. There were no changes
made to this budget.

· Fire Department -- Chief Walden reviewed changes made to the budget
compared to the current budget. It was noted $5,000 would be removed from the
Machinery/Equipment account which had been earmarked for the Fire Department's
portion of a new phone system. Since the phone system has already been replaced,
the funds will not be required. Similar reductions will also be made in the Police and
Communications budgets.
It was also noted much of the equipment in the old ambulance will be removed and
placed in the new ambulance. Also, some funds will come from the Borough for
spruce bark beetle mitigation, however the level of funding is not know. Walden noted
the Department of Forestry will have a Hot Shot crew working around some
neighborhoods and trails removing trees. The Forestry Department is also applying
for a grant to fund removal of trees in the gullies.
Findings:
There were no changes (except the new phone system funding).
Kenai Police Department-- Chief Kopp reviewed the changes in the
budget and noted the increases included were officer-safety related, i.e. cell phones,
two new patrol cars, taser purchases, etc. A brief discussion took place relating to
whether an additional officer position or additional overtime funds should be added to
this budget. It was noted, there are funds included in the personnel services portion
of the budget to cover additional overtime needs. If those funds are depleted,
administration would bring forward a resolution to transfer funds from contingency to
cover additional costs.
Discussion also took place regarding the purchase and training/use of a canine unit.

they would not object if that is the direction council wants to go.

Clerk -- Clerk Freas noted council had briefly discussed a desire to
restore commission/committee meetings to a monthly schedule. She added, if council
desired to change the schedule to monthly and have an attendant to take notes
instead of the department representative, this budget did not reflect funding to cover
those costs. She added, the amount of funding would also depend on the style of
minutes they preferred, i.e. semi-detailed or meeting summaries.
Findings: Consensus was to add contract secretary/meeting schedule on the list to
discuss further at the May 3 work session. Funding information for both scenarios
was requested. There were no changes to the budget presented.
