CITY OF KENAI
ORDINANCE NO. 2037-2004
AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, AMENDING
KMC 23.40.080 TO PROVIDE FOR A FIVE YEAR MAXIMUM PERIOD OF
REEMPLOYMENT FOR THOSE PERSONS PARTICIPATING IN THE PERS OPT-OUT
AND REMPLO~ENT PROVISIONS OF AS 39.35.150(B).
WHEREAS, in 2001 the Alaska Legislature enacted AS 39.35.150(b) that allows
persons who take normal retirement in the PIERS system to be re-employed by the
state or a municipality participating in the PIERS system while keeping their retirement
benefits; and,
WHEREAS, the option allowed under AS 39.35.150(b) expires in June 30, 2005.
Therefore, persons eligible for normal retirement after June 30, 2005 are not eligible
under AS 39.35.150(b); and,
WHEREAS, re-employment of persons participating in AS 39.35.150(b) will save the
city thousands of dollars per employee per year since the city will not have to pay
PIERS or medical insurance for the re-employed workers; and,
WHEREAS, adding a five-year limitation on re-employment for persons participating in
AS 39.35.150(b) will save the city money on personnel costs while limiting the
disparity in treatment in those eligible for retirement before and after June 30, 2005.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI,
ALASKA that KMC 23.40.080 is amended as follows:
I/~C 23.40.080 Retirement
iai Employees are required to participate in the State Public Employees
Retirement System (PERS) unless the employee participates in the opt-
out provision of AS 39.35.150(b). See PERS Handbook for details.
lb! An employee who participates in the opt-out provisions of AS
39.35.150(b) shall work no more than five years in any capacity after the
date of his/her reemployment with the City. This section does not
prohibit a former employee from serving as a council, commission or
committee member,...

MEMORANDUM:
TO' City Council
THROUGH: Linda Snow, City Manager
FROM' Larry Semmens, Finance Director
DATE: April 14, 2004
SUBJECT: PERS Opt out. Ordinances 1995-2003 and 2037-2004
Ordinance 1995-2003 was passed by the council March 19, 2003 and was implemented
by the administration in January 2004. Prior to implementation we contacted other
governments that had already implemented this program and obtained written
confirmation from the State auditor, Kay Gouyton, that social security did not have to be
paid.
The primary reason that the ordinance was brought forward by the administration was to
save money while retaining qualified staff.
This memo is to summarize the cost savings and to address certain other issues.
1. What are the cost savings?
Cost savings are generated for each position that chooses this option because the
City does not pay for the employee's health insurance and there is no PERS
contribution. The City is required to pay medicare at 1.45% of salary.
The City also saves money the first year because the employee is required to take
a month off work. All accrued leave is cashed out at the employee's current rate
of pay.
The cost savings for the four people who have opted to retire and return to work
in FY 2004 will be $36,000 compared to if the people continued to work without
taking this option. For the first full year, FY 2005, the savings for these four
positions will be $61,588. In order to estimate future cost savings we projected
medical insurance costs to increase 10% and PERS to increase to 18.67%.
Therefore the estimated savings for the 5th year for these four positions alone are
$108,057. The savings will continue to increase if health insurance and PERS
cost continues to increase.
For each additional employee that chooses this option the savings are estimated to
be $14,522 in FY 2005 and $23,605 in the 5th year. There are eight additional
positions meaning the additional savings in FY 2005 could be $116,176 for a
maximum total savings of $177,764 for the year. We do not expect all eight
persons to choose the option. If half of them do the total FY 2005 savings would
be $119,676. If a total of eight positions worked in this stares for the current year
and the next 5 years the savings would be over $940,000 or over 2 mills of
property tax.
2. Will there be a increase in the City's PERS rate due to the fact that the PERS
is paying retirement benefits earlier than they otherwise would have if the
employee would not have retired at this time?
The fiscal note on the authorizing legislation- SB242, which passed the
legislature in 2001, indicated that there would not be a cost for this provision. I
am not able to vouch for the accuracy of this fiscal note.
But, it is a fact that the longer a City employee works the higher the monthly cash
benefit the person will receive at retirement. So if the person keeps working and
does not retire, the liability for future 'wages' will be higher. The flip side to this
is that the PERS system will pay out the benefits over a shorter time period, so the
liability could be less for that reason.
The full liability for a person eligible for retirement is included in the actuarial
liability (and therefore it is included in the City's PERS rate) at the time the
person is eligible for retirement. If he/she retires exactly on that date and all of
the actuarial assumptions are accurate, there would be no impact on the PERS rate
of the employer by virtue of the person retiring. If there is an actuarial savings
when an eligible employee does not retire on the date they become eligible, then
fi'om PERS rate perspective we would benefit if employees would work a long
time past their eligibility date.
Although I cannot calculate this, my best estimate is that there is not going to be a
significant backend cost due to the impact on the PERS rate of these opt outs. I
doubt that the front-end savings will be overcome by the backend cost of an
increased PERS rate, if any.
3. Will employees that choose the option work longer than they otherwise
would have thereby reducing upward mobility?
The answer to this question is conjecture, but history shows that some people
have worked well beyond the date they were eligible to retire without this
program. In fact, of the four people that have chosen this option one has worked
7 years past their retirement eligibility date, one 5 years and the average is 3.25
years. So there is no guarantee that there would be upward mobility even if this
program were not available.
It is just as likely that this program will make it financially feasible for employees
to quit working sooner than they otherwise could have because they are able to
meet their financial goals sooner.
4. Ordinance 2037-2004 - Five year contract period.
This ordinance would limit the maximum contract period to five years. In order
to estimate the cost of this provision we used a range 15 position because it is
'close to the average salary of the remaining 8 positions.
At range 15CC, the sixth year of the contract would cost $74,176. This assumes a
7% salary increase from the FY 2004 schedule. If the contract was terminated at
the end of the 5~ year and the position was filled at range 1 SA, the bottom of the
range, the cost would be $89,565. This also assumes a 7% increase in the salary
schedule and assumes that health insurance costs will have increased to $15,433
and the PERS rate would be 18.67%.
Therefore the implementation of a five year contract term would cost the city an
additional $15,389 in the first year of the new employee's tenure. ':' That additional
cost will escalate with future increases in PERS, health insurance and di~e to
regular step increases for the new employee.
5. What impacts could the 5 year contract requirement have?
One potential problem is a situation where the employee is performing a needed
function and the city is forced to terminate the contract at an inconvenient time,
like in the middle of a project, for the sole reason that the 5 year period ends at
that time.
Another potential is that some employees will not chose this option because they
are not comfortable with the fact that their employment with the City will
absolutely end in five years. So if upward mobility is the issue this 5 year
contract provision may actually limit upward mobility because some employees
will not choose to take the option and will end up staying on the job longer than 5
years. Further, the cost of each person not taking the option is about $20,000 per
year and $100,000 for five years.
From a cost perspective I would strongly recommend against requiting a 5 year
contract term.

PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD
Jeff Klpp -- Landscaped Area Near Kenai Electric
Mr. Kipp discussed landscaping work he did at the comer of Spur Highway and South
Spruce Street. Kipp reported he would someday like to see it turned into a park in
honor of his father Glenn who owned Kenai Electric. Kipp explained the interior
portion of the property (approximately 6,000 sq. ft.) is owned by the State .and he would
like to acquire it. Council Member Porter suggested he contact Senator Wagoner in
order to explore those avenues and Kipp inquired about the city maintaining the area.
Director Frates stated the city would not maintain the property while it is in private
ownership.
ITEM 5: OLD BUSINESS

Dimmick requested several committee members meet at the Teen Center on Friday,
April 16 at 10:30 a.m. to noon and Frates stated he would check on availability. It was
also noted clean up was scheduled one week prior to the May 29th volunteer planting
day. Dimmick suggested no food service be initiated before one o'clock. The
Committee consensus was to not serve food before ! :00 p.m.
ITEM 6: NEW BUSINESS
Discussion -- Connuunity Gardens
Frates updated the Committee on the Community Gardens and noted eight gardeners
had signed up for use of plots to date. Porter requested public service announcements
be sent to radio stations and the Clarion. There were no objections to the suggestion.
Discussion-- Fire Department Island
Member Seymour suggested the island be cemented or graveled over and flower boxes
placed instead of plantings. A brief discussion took place related to this idea's
advantages and disadvantages. Porter suggested it be cemented over and a price be
obtained for budgeting purposes.
Consensus of the Committee was cement offered a better long-term solution and costs
should be obtained for future reference.
Discussion -- Summer Theme
Several ideas were discussed and the theme "Come Grow With Us" received consensus
of the Committee.
ITEM 7: REPORTS
7-a. Committee Chair -- Dimmick suggested a volunteer campaign and
consensus a Chamber of Commerce presentation would be a good way to reach

will check availability of Chamber dates.

maintenance positions was initiated and some bulbs have been planted at the city
greenhouse.

great park some day.

Board Meeting Minutes
April 12, 2004
Board Members Present: Fred Braun, Marion Nelson, Jacquie Steckel, Robin West, Robert
Fulton, Dan Van Zee, Jerry Dunn
Board Members Excused: Sharon Brower, Pat Porter
Staff Members Present: Michelle Glass, Diana McKenney
A. Call to Order & Roll Call: The meeting was called to order at 5:20p.m.
B. Approval of Agenda: Ms. Nelson moved for and Ms. Steckel seconded approval of the
agenda, it was approved unanimously.
C. Approval of Minutes: Mr. Van Zee moved and Mr. West seconded approval of the March
22"d minutes. They were approved unanimously.
D. Persons scheduled to be heard: None
E. Correspondence:
1. Marry Ragan - Resignation from KCVB Board: Ms. Ragan submitted her letter of
resignation and has spoken to Porter Jordan of Fireweed Herb Garden about replacing
her. He indicated that he would be thrilled, but later in the year. Ms. Glass suggested
Michelle Blackwell as a board member because she has tremendous tourism experience.
Ms. Steckel moved that Mr. Jordan and Ms. Blackwell be invited to serve on the board.
Ms. Nelson seconded. Ms. Nelson felt that either would be good. Mr. West wondered if
this would require an election or an appointment. Mr. Braun indicated that we would be
able to appoint these members. Mr. Dunn knows Mr. Jordan and volunteered to talk to
him. The bylaws indicate that a vacancy that occurs by reason of resignation may be
filled for the unexpired portion of that Director's term by a majority vote of the
rern~g Directors. The motion was changed to include someone from Salamatof
Native Association. The maker of the motion approved. The amended motion was
approved unanimously.
2. Jim Kuhnsman- Kenai River Watch: (Letter included in packet) Ms. Nelson asked
about the liability we would acquire with this association. She is concerned about the
role of this group and the clarity of deflation of the requirements. Mr. West felt that the
program is a good idea, but requested the role for KCVB would be pretty hard to manage
and is not within the scope of our mission and current capability. He felt that the Kenai
Watershed Forum would be more appropriate for this task. Mr. Van Zee moved that we
not be involved with this program and Ms. Nelson seconded. It was approved
unanimously. Ms. Glass will send a letter to Mr. Kuhnsman declining involvement
F. New Business:
1. State Scenic Byway Nomination: Ms. Glass found out that communities along the
Sterling Hwy. are looking to be listed as a Scenic Byway in the state of Alaska. There is
no fund~g associated with this, but this is the first step for becoming a National Scenic
Byway and then an all American Highway. Ms. Glass wanted to make sure the Spur
Highway was included in this. She has a lot of experience with the program and believes
it would qualify. Ms. Nelson met with representatives of the Scenic Byway program and
took them on a tour of the area to fimher reinforce qualifications for the Spur. She was
asked to be on the Corridor Committee and agreed. Mr. West met with them also and has
expressed interest in this. He said that there is some opposition in the community
including the Kenai Peninsula Mayor., but that the Borough Assembly is favorable.
Perhaps the fear is that there will be more regulation and land would be tied up. Mr.
Fulton thought it would be good to get the regulations that come with the designation.
Ms. Glass said she could get the information. Mr. Braun asked about how the grant funds
are used. Ms. Glass said that once you achieve national stares, there is a pool of grants
that can be used for specific projects like pull-outs and restrooms. Mr. Braun felt that we
need to support this effort. Mr. Fulton moved that the Board give Ms. Glass direction to
proceed with collection of information about this and proceed. Ms. Steckel seconded. It
was approved unanimously.
2. Theme for next year's show: The idea for the summer art show for 2005 is to have a
Native Alaska theme, perhaps, Faces of Alaska. This could be those of Alaska Native
heritage exclusively, or include anyone bom in Alaska. I was decided that the theme
should be determined according to our mission statement and how it can be used
effectively as a marketing tool. Discussion will continue via e-mail. The theme is usually
announced at the Grand Opening.
3. Meeting with Jim Bookey: Ms. Glass met with Mr. Bookey to discuss issues about
KCVB and the budget. Ms. Glass indicated that the meeting was positive and very
productive. They shared concerns about the profitability of the summer show, but we
have taken numerous steps this year to improve on that front. They also shared the desire
to use the show for more of a marketing tool in the future, as well as increase the overall
marketing being done by the Kenai CVB. Mr. Bookey indicated that he felt that the City
Council would support specific efforts geared towards marketing Kenai and the Cultural
Center. Mr. Braun suggested that Ms Glass write a short statement to the Board of
Directors and City Council outlining her intent for KCVB and the community of Kenai.
G. Old Business:
1. Budget meeting with City of Kenai: We are scheduled to meet with the city on the 27th.
The council would also like to meet with our board to discuss the management contract
sometime in May or June. They are asking for a list of questions and discussion items
prior to the meeting and they will do the same for our board. Ms. Glass would like to
meet with those members who have been here since the inception to discuss some of the
issues.
2. Highway Neighbors Conference: Ms. Glass announced that the Kenai CVB won the
bid to host the conference in 2006. This should bring around 100 participants to Kenai in
April. The objective of the conference is to learn about highway statistics, scenic
byways, and for all communities on the highway to get together and share ideas. One of
the most interesting things she learned was that the Milepost was the number one source
of information for visitors. 53% of visitors rely on the milepost as their number one
source. Ms. Glass hopes to include other entities here on the peninsula to participate. She
recommends that we host it just prior to the sportsman show since many people will be
traveling to this area at that time anyway.
3. Bounty of the Sea update: Mr. Braun suggested that we abandon the $100 ticket raffle
and leave it to the staff to set up the grand opening raffle. We have decided not to do the
Exploring Alaska video with Paul Gray, due to budget concems and cost of it in relation
to its marketing effectiveness. The schedule for the show and the grand opening is tight,
but on schedule.
4. Year-end Report: Will likely be late, but will only cost about $300. Mr. Braun
requested that Ms. Glass report to the city that we will be late.
H. Executive Director's Report: Included in packet and discussed throughout this meeting.
I. Board Comments:
Mr. Dunn spoke in favor of the art show indicating that he is glad to have it to recommend to all
the visitors at his RV Park. Comment on the snag- somehow we have to spruce that thing up!
Ms. Glass indicated that it is still a big visitor attraction .....
Mr. West- has volunteered to help with thank-yous for sponsors. He asked to work together
with Ms. Glass and to possibly sign the letters jointly- wants to make sure we have all the
accurate data for the letters.
Ms. Nelson - doing a great job Michelle - thank you!! Jon Faullmer spoke at rotary today about
the Kenai Landing and talked about doing salt water fishing out of here. It just hasn't been a
focus here. Some of the long range plans for that property will indeed have an impact on the
area and has found the cooperation in this community to be incredibly positive and hopes to
continue.
Mr. Braun told Ms. Glass that he has heard some good things about the work being done here.
Mr. Fulton- tourists come to the peninsula, but don't come up to this end. They go to Soldotna,
because it is a natural and they have the guides and they can access the fiver. Unless they have
an individual contact they can get what they need in Soldotna. We should concentrate on why
would they come to Kenai? Made a tour of the Russian tour with 50 outside guests with the
Father doing the tour. Those people were really impressed with the church. Many people on
subsequent trip were still talking about that visit. So once they get here, then you need to have
something to entertain them. The art show is a good vehicle for that that may encourage them to
stay overnight. Then there is a good opportunity to talk about the blending about the native
culture and the Russian culture. If the visitor's center weren't here, we would be losing a lot of
business and tourists. He also pointed out that the art show and opening does support the city
because it is for the local people and they are the ones who support the city!!
J. Schedule of Next Board Meeting: May 17z, 5p.m.
K. Adjournment: Mr. Van Zee moved and Ms. Nelson moved for adjournment. It was
approved unanimously at 7:30p.m.

Greetings on a beautiful Thursday!
Attached you will find the minutes from Monday's Board meeting.
Jerry Dunn has already contacted Porter Jordan and due to his wife's health issues
he is unable to join the Board.
I spoke with Michelle Blackwell and due to strict policies from the Congressional
delegation, she cannot sit on any board in a voting capacity. She said that she would
love to serve in an advisory role if that is possible.
Colleen Canady at the Kenai COC and I have decided to have regularly scheduled
meetings in order to try and improve the working relationship between our two
organizations. It is our hope by working more efficiently and diligently that we can
build a stronger Kenai image for residents, businesses and visitors.
Any mom thoughts on Art Show Themes?
The two floating out there am:
Native Alaskan Arts
Wildflowers of Alaska
It might be possible to do both themes, one in 2005 and the other in 2007, with the
International Wildlife show in 2006.
Let me know what you think,

Executive Director's Initial Assessment
This week marks the completion of two months work as Executive Directnr of this
organizatiorc Things have definitely been a whirlwind of activity and with summer at
our doorstep, there are no signs of it slowing dowrr Everyone has been very helpful
with the steep learning curve and I have appreciat~ the support of the Staff and Board
in helping me transition to the job as well as the community.
While I realize that there is much to lem~ and that I cannot fully understand the
complexities of the job ahead of me, I would like to offer some observations and
suggestions for future directiorc
I could go on for quite some time with comments but I will limit this to three main
topics: Facility, Funding, and Marketing.
FACILITY
This is no doubt one of the finest visitor's fadlities in the stain. I certainly hope the
community realizes what a wonderful resource this building is, I know the staff does.
During the past two months we have hosted four different exhibitions, 12 conference
groups for a total of $4~30 in revenue and donated in-kind meeting space to 8 different
groups for what would have been $2,300 in revenue. We have also won a bid to host the
2006 Highway Neighbors conference which will bring great stat~-wide exposure for
Kenai as well as approximately 100 partidpants to area hotels and restaurants during
April when such revenues are much needed.
In addition to the use of the facility we have completed a renovation of the Natural
History room, which has greatly enhanced the visual appeal as well as its function as an
educational tool. This project was funded by a grant we applied for and receaveU from
the Stat~ Museums organization and we are currently planning phase two of fffls project
My hope is that we can expand the revenue-generating meetings and conferences as
well as expand the use of the facility by community groups. Every time we book an in-
kind meeting it limits our ability to generate much-needed revenue and it puts great
demands on our staffin~ which is already stretr, h~ to the max. However, I feel it is
sometimes more important to develop goodwill with our community by providing Iow
to no-cost meeting space. I also feel it is in the spirit of the original grant for this building
to be used by residents ~o enhance Kenai's quality of life.
FUND~G
This is one of the greatest concerns for me. As I begin to understand the very involved
funding struch~e for this organization, one thing is quite dear, we are living hand-to-
mouth. While I appreda~e ttaat this is the case for almost every individual ci~ as well
as most non-profits, finding a stable and sustainable funding source is imperative for
ensuring our longevity.
Gaming revenues are completely unpredictable and the future is tenuous. Creative
income sources such as websites for on-line sales and our museum gift shop provide
limited funds for carrying on the work, but such activity has tended to put us at odds
with not only the community but sometimes our members. If a secure predictable
funding mechanism is in place we will not be forced to grow these revenue streams.
The former Directnr has done an excellent job in finding grant-based income tn assist
with both projects and manpower, but unfortunately many grants have award limits
and if we receive them once we are ineligible for another grant. Researching grant
opporttmities places a big demand on staff hours, but we will have tn continue to search
for them.
Essen~y we need to work as hard and as smart as possible. We need tn save money
where possible and spend money where neces~. We are not looking for hand-outs,
rather we are looking for a partner to assist with projec~ that will not simply benefit the
Kenai CVB, but will benefit the community of Kenai.
· Page 2
MARKJ~-I'ING
Every Director brings his or her own skill set to the job and my background is in
marketing. I have worked in sales and marketing for large corporate to~ entities as
well as small ~own destination promotion. I am firmly grounded in my belief that
marketing is the most important job of a Convention and Visitors Bureau.
The most glaring realization to me is that we have few basic marketing tools. If there is
any community on this Pertins~a that needs marketing it is KenaL There are a million
reasons to come to Kenai; people just don't know it yeti I truly believe that if we can
implement even the most basic marketing plan, we will reap economic benefits. We
need to start with essential collateral (a simple brochure or rack card), dearly defined
and track-able advertising~ and some media exposure, and then move on to image and
brand building. I propose that we try as much as possible ~o do this collabomtively,
working with the Chamber, the City and other local organizations as well as regionally
with KPTMC.
I am committed to enhancing our marketing program. The annual art exhibition is a
great start, but at this time it is really our only tool. We need tn sharpen it as well as pair
it with other tools to creat~ a complet~ tool bag. This will not come without a price
however. At this time most of our budget cuts have been made to marketing. ~ is not
atypical of most organizations) Over the next year I will be trying to modify our existing
material ~o make it work in the short-rm~ then try to find funds to develop what we
really need. The number one directive of our Mission Statement is '"To promote the
membership of the Kenai CVB and the City of Kenai through destination marketing".
As the new Director I will make this, along with maintaining the finandal viability of the
organization my highest priorities.
Thank you for taking time to review tixis report. I realize that I have been here a short
time, but I think "fresh eyes" are a great asset. I am exalted to experience a summer so I
can further develop my understanding of this place. I look forward to working with a
great staff and Board of Directo~ in the effort to enhance the Kenai CVB's contn'bution
to the economic well being of the dry. I welcome all input, so please feel free to contact
me if you have any questions, concerns or ideas.

COMMITTEE REPORTS
1. Administration - Ms. Thompson informed the board that her committee had
met and in their meeting they reviewed the purposes of the different
subcommittees. They feel their needs to be a Risk Management
subcommittee. Ms. Thompson will be doing a written report for the board.
The purpose for this meeting was to determine where they are going as a
committee and how they are going to handle the issues involved in the
administrative committee. They will be holding a work session April 16th in
which they plan on reviewing budgets and making necessary corrections.
They will also be working on the budget through the end of the games. Ms.
Thompson informed the board that the City of Kenai passed its resolution
supporting the AWG2006 and lobbying for state and federal funds to help us.
Her committee is also in the process of developing a timeline that has
contractual deadlines in it.
e
Care & Comfort- Ms. Peterson reported to the board that her committee met
in Wood Buffalo. The sub-committee Accreditation and Registration is going
to be moved to the Information & Technology committee by board approval.
Teresa Kiffmeyer who is the chair for this sub-committee will also be
changing to the Information & Technology committee. The next meeting will
be held April 7th and they will be having two special guests, Nan Spooner and
a representative from the Alaska National guard.
3. Ceremonies & Culture - Mr. Andrews reported some of his observations in
Wood Buffalo concerning the awards. Mr. Andrews feels that he has a much
better idea of what the Arctic Winter Games is about and will be scheduling
his first committee meeting in April.
.
Information Technology - Mr. Jones has a report that he is preparing for the
board that details the sub-committees he would like to establish under the I.T.
committee. He hopes to have a structure in place in the next few weeks and
then will present it to the board for their approval at the next meeting.
5. Marketing- no report
6. Revenue Development- Mr. Popp reported to the board that there are four
Alaska contributors that he expects to finalize sponsorships with in the next
thirty days. One of these will be a major sponsor and the other three have not
determined the level of sponsorship at this time. Mr. Popp came away with 14
potential contributors from Wood Buffalo. He appreciates all the help he
received from board members and other host society individuals in Wood
Buffalo.
Mr. Popp will be traveling to Washington, D.C. along with Mr. Brown and
Mr. Navarre. They hope to come back with new information on where
everything stands on the second year request.
7. Sports- Mr. Miller reported to the board that the biathlon is the main issue he
is working on at this time.
8. Sports Facilities - Mr. Carmichael reported to the board that the time he spent
at the games was very enlightening. He spent a lot of time talking to people
concerning the tent and looked at the temporary shower facilities. He felt that
number wise it was a good idea but it did not work out as far as having
enough hot water for showers. Biggest revelation they came across was that
it was unanimous that the soccer people did not want turf for soccer. They
said it changed the game for the athletes. He also met with the group from the
2007 Canadian Games. They are very interested in working with our group.
As far as curling he feels confident that we will be able to utilize any facility
that Homer has.
9. Volunteer & Protocol- Mr. Brown met with the Clarkson's while he was in
Wood Buffalo to discuss the successes and problems with the AWG2004
games. He will be submitting a detailed report in writing to the board. A few
recommendations that the Clarkson's had for our group were that we change
the name of our committee to Volunteer and Special Guests and that we have
an official cut off date for volunteers.
OLD BUSINESS

hiring the Volunteer Manager in May. Mr. Carmichael seconded it.

Navarre amended the motion to increase the number of executive board

BOARD MEMBERS COMMENTS
Ms. Beckmann - The trip to Wood Buffalo was a good experience and she is very
excited about the 2006 games.
Mr. Miller- He is submitting his resignation from the board due to the lack of
time.
Mr. Carmichael - The games were as good as in 2002 but we must keep the
opening and closing ceremonies down to an hour. The focus needs to be on the
kids.
Ms. Peterson- We need to tap into the power of the 41 kids from the Peninsula
who were at the Wood Buffalo games.
Ms. Gensel - We need to make sure that we include the teachers that are helping
with the AWG and allowing us to use their classrooms and show our appreciation
to them.
Ms. Holle - She had a great time at AWG2004. It was a lot of work but very
enjoyable.
Mr. Brown- Had a great time at Wood Buffalo. CBC is requesting a venue
similar to the Knights Center. He was thinking a good place might be the Kenai
Central Auditorium.
Mr. Popp - Thank you to everyone for working the crowds at the reception and
other places. He enjoyed watching the cultural ceremonies especially when the
different performers got together and sang with each other.
Mr. Navarre - He is hoping that we can all get together for a time of talking and
sharing the different things we experienced in Wood Buffalo.
Mr. Jones - Wood Buffalo had a tremendous advantage in corporate resources
and expertise. He saw that greatly compromised by lack of organization and
communication.
Ms. Thompson- She thought it was a tremendous learning experience and
learned a lot while she was there. She especially wanted to thank the drivers.
Ms. Foster- Everyone worked hard and she feels that everyone bonded as a
group. She thinks that our group gets along well and can have a lot of fun
together.

Discussion -- Kenai Peninsula Hockey Association Donation/Midget U-
16 Team
Williams explained he bid on lessons for operating a Zamboni at the KPHA fundraiser
for the Midget U-16 Team who would be traveling to Florida to play in a national
tournament. To his surprise, he won the bid at $650 and asked if council was willing
to pay the amount so that city employees would receive the training.
Bookey stated he felt the purchase of the lessons would be a direct benefit to the city
and because none of the city employees could run the machine, he felt the donation
was fitting.
MOTION:
Council Member Bookey MOVED to give a donation of $650 to the Kenai Peninsula
Hockey Association for the purchase of Zamboni lessons. Council Member Porter
SECONDED the motion.
Council Member Gilman stated he objected to the donation, but offered to personally
pay half of the cost. He noted, he did not feel it was appropriate for council to support
one sports group over another and that it was a bad precedent. Council Member
Moore disqualified himself from the issue as he felt he had a conflict of interest due to
his son being a member of the team.
Mayor Williams stated he would make the donation personally and the motion was not
voted.

Williams reported he was asked to attend a dinner at which Richard Warrington would
be presented with a commendation for his work with the Brain Injury Prevention
group.
ITEM K:
ADMINISTRATION REPORTS
K-1. City Manager-- City Manager Snow reported the following:
· The old FAA antenna property (last property to be included in the
Millennium Square) was transferred to the real estate division for their review which
should take approximately three to four weeks and could include requesting additional
work from the contractor. However, she expects after three or four weeks, the status
should be known and felt the property should be deeded to the city during the
summer.
· She will include her analysis of what kind of administrative and field
work would be involved if the council decided it wanted to .enact and to authorize the
administration to enforce Kenai Peninsula Borough Code 21.18 relating to
Anadromous Streams Habitat Protection. She noted, she was very close to finishing
the work and it was intended to schedule the matter for discussion by the Planning &
Zoning and Harbor Co_m__~issions at their next meetings. She will also forward a copy
to council members to have it at the same time the commissions receive it.
· She and Director Frates discussed the possibility of flea markets being
held at the multipurpose facility during the summer as suggested by the Parks &
Recreation Commission. Frates is preparing bid specifications and notice to advertise
a Request for Proposals and they are hoping someone or group from the community
will be interested taking on the lease of space. A brief discussion followed of whether
the sale of guns would be included and it was stated that issue was being researched
and discussed. It was also reported a year-end use report for the ice facility will be
forwarded to council in the near future.
Finance Director Semmens reported the following items:
* He and Airport Manager Cronkhite attended the Borough Assembly
meeting of April 6 and gave testimony in support of their flat tax for aircraft. He noted
his pride of Cronkhite's eloquent testimony of the vision of aviation in Alaska and
Kenai. Semmens stated the ordinance was passed by the Assembly and the next step
would be for the council to consider whether to amend the City's code to mirror the
borough ordinance.
* He has twice spoken in teleconferences relating to HB91, adding five
years of medical benefits for police and fire. Since then, a more reasonable fiscal note
came out and instead of costing .97% of police and fire payroll, it will now cost at lease
3.11% (tripled). Semmens explained, instead of costing $1.7 million a year for the
benefit, it would be $5.5 m/Il/on in the first year. The bill has been amended to require
the State of Alaska to pay all of the costs associated with HB91. He noted his doubts
of how the costs would be allocatedl He also reported letters from PERS and TERS
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
APRIL 7, 2004
PAGE 6
were sent to the Legislature requesting no further changes to their systems be made
by the Legislature.
Se_m_~ens stated his concern was if there is support of the bill in Labor and Commerce
or Senate Finance, the requirement of the State to pay the costs would be removed or
in the future, the State will decide it cannot afford to pay the municipalities' share and
the costs will be borne by the municipalities. For Kenai, he estimated the cost to be
$86,000 a year.
A lengthy discussion followed on the bill and the PERS retirement program. Ross
stated he would like to pursue a compromise of HB91 which would allow retirement at
the age of 50 with a minimum of 20 years work for police and fire. Williams requested
Se_m_mens prepare a synopsis of his testimony for him to take to Juneau to distribute
to the members of the Senate.
Attorney-- No report.
K-3. City Clerk -- Clerk Freas noted council had requested a letter be sent to
those persons who, over the last six months, stated their interest in fo _rmin§ special
assessment districts for street i~provements in their subdivisions. She referred to a
draft letter included in the packet which she prepared and asked if council wanted the
letter to be forwarded. Consensus of council was to send the letter.
ITEM L:
mSCUSSXON
L- 1. Citizens
John 'Ozzie' Osborne -- Stated he filed to run for the position of State Representative
in House District 33. He reported it was his intention to attend both the Kenai and
Soldotna council meetings to keep up-to-date with i~ues and concerns.
L-2. Council
Bookey-- No comments.
b'warner -- No comments.
Moore -- * Thanked the public and Mayor Williams for their contributions to
the KPHA U-16 team.
· Asked about a junk vehicle sitting on the Burger King property. Attorney
Graves reported he was trying to find the owner of the vehicle; letters have been sent
to the owner of the property; by city code, because the vehicle is sitting on private
property, the city cannot remove the vehicle without serving a search warrant; and the
KEN~ CITY COUNCIL MEETING
APRIL 7, 2004
PAGE 7
code could be amended to allow removal from private property without a search
warrant.
Porter -- * Recommended a new policy from council relating to renewal of
terms on boards, committees and commissions, i.e. the person, if interested in serving
an additional term, would be required to complete a new application and that
application be considered along with any others that may have been submitted. She
will discuss the issue with the City Clerk.
· Reported she had received concerns council had determined the Dust
Bowl property not available for sale at their last meeting (she was absent) without the
proposed purchaser being present. The purchaser discussed his concerns with her
that he was not given the opportunity to follow the procedure through though she felt
he understood why council did not want to sell the property. Administration was
asked to contact the purchaser and ask if he wanted to be placed on the April 21
agenda to discuss the issue further with council.
b'warnez-- Stated, because she would be meeting with the purchaser, she
would ask whether he would want to discuss the Dust Bowl property further. She
also noted, the purchaser was also interested in property along Lawton Drive which is
currently zoned conservation and is interested in knowing the procedures for
rezoning property from conservation.
C~_~_~au -- Reported he would not be at the April 12 budget hearing or the April
21 council meeting.
1~~ -- Reported the Stranded Gas Committee participation will go into October
to review an additional application.

· There were several scale models of platforms, etc. that had been
presented to the college which were now being stored away. He noted he had not yet
discussed the matter with the college, but thought they might be placed in the same
area in the airport where the large oil platform was currently situated. Swarner
suggested there could be a problem as there were now some toys placed in that area.
Airport Manager Cronkhite noted an art committee of the airport had been formed and
they could discuss the matter more closely. She added, they were reviewing cultural
and industrial displays for the whole terminal.
ITEM J:
ADMINISTRATION REPORTS
J-1. City Manager-- City Manager Snow reviewed the memorandum
included in the packet and noted the following:
· A teleconference was held with the Department of Fish & Game and city
representatives to discuss potential solutions in providing environmental protection to
the south side of the river during the dip net fishery. Snow stated a number of
mitigating solutions were discussed, i.e. construction of a facility to control access,
provide parking, waste disposal, fee collection, emergency operation, etc. Fish &
Game requested additional information, i.e. maps, aerial photos, etc. to examine the
issue further, however indicated construction of a facility would not be likely due to
permitting concerns. No solutions were determined during the discussion, but the
Sports Fish Division representative indicated he would take steps to increase their
enforcement and education programs related to the fishery, i.e. requesting additional
funding for supplying lea/lets, etc.
· The downstairs remodel project was almost complete and employees had
been discussing changes that might be undertaken for an upstairs remodel, in order
to create the most efficient and beneficial use of the upstairs space. Considerations in
developing a plan included productivity, efficiency, morale, privacy, etc. Pr/_marily the
plan would include the addition of some walls and possibly one or two windows. She
added, the project was estimated at approximately $20,000 and the work should be
able to be completed by the end of the fiscal year and within the Buildings Repair &
Maintenance budget. Snow added, if council agreed with the approach and plan
(suggested plan was included in the packet), they would proceed with the project and
if not, she requested direction and/or suggestions.
· She would be out of town from February 7-11 and in her absence, the
Finance Director would be the Acting City Manager.
· Department head reports would be included in the packet of the second
meetings of the month. However, the department heads were available for questions
at any time.
A lengthy discussion followed regarding the upstairs remodel. Comments included: · The cost of the upstairs renovation was estimated at $20,000
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
FEBRUARY 6, 2002
PAGE 11
· The renovation estimate didn't include furnishings, equipment for the
new office area, and didn't include public bathroom upgrades requested by council or
lighting upgrades (lighting was planned prior to the renovation project).
·
No costs for furnishings was included in the upstairs remodel estimated
cost.
Bookey asked if the heating and ventilation concerns would be addressed in this
project -and how much more electrical work would have to be done. He added, he was
concerned the city would be in a deficit mode before the end of the year and didn't
want to take on projects that may not be necessary, which he felt the renovation was
not a major necessity and would not support the project.
Snow explained, the heating and ventilation study was a separate project and initially
it was intended to be included as one capital project. She added, it was her
understanding the renovation work would not affect the heating and ventilation. Snow
continued, she agreed it was a difficult part of the council's job to investigate different
options and where to spend money. However, the repair and maintenance of buildings
is very important and as changes are made, there is a definite need to keep up the
maintenance and repair. There were some efficiency, morale, personnel issues that
she felt, made it i_mportant the changes be made and that was why the issue was
brought forward. She noted, the funding was available in the budget to do the work.
Bookey stated he felt the project was new construction and not repair and
maintenance and felt $20,000 could be spent more effectively than this project. Moore
stated he felt offices were necessary especially when dealing with personnel issues and
suggested some privacy for the department heads if a rearrangement was going to be
made in the upstairs area.
Porter suggested the Finance Director's area be walled in, but didn't agree with adding
other walls and felt the conference table now in the Public Works area could be moved
to the space that will be left vacant after the Clerk's office is moved. She added, she
was also concerned about the estimated cost of the project and understood that if
those funds were taken from the current balance in repair and maintenance, it would
leave only approximately $20,000 for other items that may come up prior to the end of
the fiscal year. She suggested that if administration finds there would be a surplus
left in that budget by the first of June, then perhaps the issue should be returned to
council for discussion.
Jackman agreed with Bookey the project would be new construction and thought the
downstairs area should be completed and maybe at a later date discuss the upstairs
or make changes to the upstairs in steps. Swarner asked if additional electrical work
would be needed in the copy room and La Shot answered, there would be work
needing to be done, but those costs had been included in the $20,000 estimate.
Swarner stated she appreciated the employees' input, but was also reluctant to go
forward with the work at this time. She agreed that if there was a surplus left in the
ICEN~ CITY COUNCIL MEETING
FEBRUARY 6, 2002
PAGE 12
repair and maintenance budget in June, then perhaps go forward with the project and
in the meantime, make changes that would have no costs to them.
Swarner stated she had understood the cost of upgrading the public restrooms had
been included in the budget and would like to see the ventilation and heating
upgraded before adding walls.
Snow requested clarification to be sure of council's direction:
Council would prefer to look at the project in May or June when having a
better idea of how much money would be available in this year's budget.
· Swarner requested administration prioritize what they would like to do
first and then go down the list.
· Council agreed the Accountant needed walls around her area due to the
personnel issues dealt with at that desk
Discussion continued in regard to the project. The following concerns were expressed:
· That the upstairs project would be contracted out by the city in parts, as
the project was downstairs, and not bid.
· The building was originally built with the concept of open work areas,
however in current management studies, morale, productivity, efficiencies, etc. are
higher with more private work areas, as well as an increase in customer service.
· Because of the small percentage of times the Accountant needs privacy to
discuss confidential personnel issues, garnishments, deferments, etc., one of the
conference rooms should be used during those times.
· Support for putting walls around the Finance Director and Accountant
was given, except the cost for placing a window in the Accountant's work area would
be too expensive (unless the window space could be cut by city personnel and the cost
for walls and doors for two offices can be kept under $5,000).
Consensus was reached that walls be placed for the Finance Director's office and bring
..issue back at budget for further diacussion.
Porter requested a follow-up meeting be scheduled with Fish & Game in
regard to the south side of the river. She suggested that if Fish & Game cannot help
solve the problem (and not by passing out leaflets) she wanted to close the beach
during the dip net fishery. Williams noted that would be very difficult to do. Snow
added, they had already explained to Fish & Game representatives that the city would
be investigating ways to close the access and it was her understanding there is no way
to do that. Attorney Graves explained, the access road to the beach is a section line
easement and is controlled by the State and it would be very d~cult to eliminate the
easement and would require the State's consent, unless an alternative access was
available. Graves added, beyond the high water mark, under the public trust doctrine,
there is a public access easement and measures could be taken to restrict vehicular
traffic, but that would probably be the limit of control the city would have. Porter

formally request a release to lease or sell the property for non-aviation use once a plat is
recorded. A preliminary plat of Tract A, Baron Park No. 12 was approved at the February 23ra
Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning meeting.
The Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the attached map and recommended the
parcel be made available for sale. Attached is an ordinance for Council consideration that would

Memorandum
Date:

From.'
April 15, 2004
Linda L. Snow, City Manager
Klm Howard, Assistant to the City Manager
Request to Purchase Tract A-5 Dena'ina Point Estates
On March 18th I received a request to purchase Tract A-5 Dena'ina Point Estates Subdivision.
Ordinance No. 927-84 declared that certain tracts in Section 36 could be sold and it set aside
other tracts for public use. Tract A-5 is one of the tracts set aside for public use and was not
made available for sale. Bryan R. Lowe has asked that the designation be changed to allow a
competitive bid sale. He would like to build a restaurant on the property.
As a background on the Section 36 properties, the tracts that were declared to be sold were
included in a competitive bid sale in 1985 were under the condition that they be developed as a
planned subdivision. The Public Works Department has the plans (52 pages) and the
improvements were to include: water, sewer, paved roads to be built in the ROW, curbs and
gutters, sidewalks on both sides of the road, street lights, signage and storm drains. Many of the
lots sold and some of those are back in City ownership either through default or mutual
rescission.
The plat states that all tracts adjoining the bluff are subject to a 100' building setback. There are
two drainage easements that intersect the property and a 50' section line easement, leaving
approximately one acre of useable building space. Public Works Manager La Shot indicated
that parking could possibly be allowed on the easement. Water and sewer lines extend down
Cook Inlet View Drive, but an easement or land purchase from a private owner may be
necessary for extension to the subject property.
The property is zoned Suburban Residential. Construction of a restaurant would require a
rezone or a conditional use permit. Mr. Lowe is aware of the easements and zoning issues.
Memorandum to Linda Snow
April 15, 2004
Page 2 of 2
KMC 22.05.010 states, "Disposal or sale of lands shall be made only when, in the judgment of
the City Council, such lands are not required for public use." Sale would be by competitive bid
at not less than the fair market value.
At the April 14th meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission reviewed the attached
information and made a recommendation that the property is not needed for a public purpose.
Please let me know if you would like an ordinance prepared allowing the property to be sold.

DATE' April 15, 2004
SUBJECT:
KPB Parcel # 04501003 - Section 33; S1/2 S1/2 SW1/4 LYING SOUTH
OF KENAI SPUR HWY (Lawton Acres Subdivision)
This parcel is the green belt located between the Kenai Spur Highway and Lawton Drive.
Based on the records, it appears that the City of Kenai submitted a preliminary plat in
June of 1983 to subdivide this large parcel into 29 lots. At that time, the property was
zoned suburban residential. It appears that the plat, Lawton Acres was never recorded.
In 1984, City Council approved Ordinance No. 962-84 rezoning Lots 1-29 of Lawton
Acres Subdivision from suburban residential to conservation. This ordinance defined the
parcel based on the legal description from the Lawton Acres preliminary plat and did not
reflect the accurate legal description of the property (shown above).
Attached is a map showing the subject parcel and the location of water and sewer lines.

d. Preliminary Plat' PZ83-27, Chi.l.d_s S/D, Resub. of Jay. nes .S/D_
Jeff Labahn stated that the only problem with the plat lay in the
proposed use. The area is zoned Heavy Industrial and the developer
shows residential use intended.
MOT I ON:
Commissioner Bryson moved approval of PZ83-27, Childs S/D with item
l l.being any reference to residential use for this parcel be removed
from the plat, seconded by Commissioner Zubeck.
VOTE:

MOTION:
Commissioner Bryson moved, seconded by Commissioner Osborne to approve
PZ83-28, Redoubt Terrace S/D Add. No. 4 Part 2 as submitted.
VOTE:
Motion passed unanimously
f. . .Preliminary Plat' PZ83-29, Lawton Acres~
The Commission discussed at length, the cost of tearing up the road and
putting in the stub outs for water & sewer as well as the overall cost
regarding the lift station. Th~ Commission requested Mr. Labahn return
with some cost estimates and 2 alternatives at the next meeting.
g. City of Kenai. co. mpreh, e. ns.ive Plan update
Jeff Labahn stated that the Borough needs an indication from the City
of Kenai that there is an interest in using Borough funds for updating
the Comprehensive Plan. It was the concensus of the Commission that
they would like to go over the plan and ascertain that there is a need
for update before asking for the money.
7. P L ~%~ N I N G
The Commission discussed the options available for the lease applications
especially where landscaping is involved. Commissibner Bryson pointed out
that in'Alaska State courts, if you were to cut these trees down on
another person's property these trees would be worth $5,000- $10,000 each.
Mr. Labahn pointed out that the City should not be afraid to make some
KENAI PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
Regular Meeting, J_~une 8, 1983
Page 4
The deadline for filing for water & sewer stub outs is July 15th so
some sort of decision should be made near that time.
MOTION:
Commissioner Bryson moved to recommend the subdivision of government
lots 131 and 166 with conformance to alternative 3 as stated in the
memo of Jeff Labahn excluding lot 114, seconded by Commissioner
Osborne.
Commissioner Zubeck again stated his feeling that another park is not
necessary as there are 3 right in the general area, and there would not
be enough space on the lot for a ballfield. Vic Tyler stated that these
were prime lots as people are interested in the view, the gully not
being trashy.
VOTE:
Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote.
Jeff Labahn returned the subject with a memo outlining 3 alternatives
to the development of the land described above. One of the biggest
obstacle seems to be the antenna farm, it probably will be moved at
some point in time, but there is no way of knowing for sure. Commissioner
Bryson asked about the traffic flow, Jeff Labahn stated that it would
be very heavy. Discus~i92% followed with the concensus of the Commission
being that alternative'"~ was the approved form of development for that
tract. Jeff Labahn will now take the next steps.
c. Lawton Acres - Water & Sewer Services
~ , ,
lJack LaShot, City Engineer reported that he had not had the time to
come up with cost figures for tearing up Lawton street for the service
lines to the individual lots. Discussion followed on the suggestion
that the service lines come from the Spur Highway side of the lot across
the Conservation zone rather than tearing up Lawton. This would also
tend to encourage the houses being set farther back on the lots. A
ost estimate will be needed for this alternative.
Jeff Labahn presented 2 alternatives for the west side and one alternative
for the east side of Section 36. Commissioner Monfor asked if the
property along the bluff could be protected, Jeff stated that any setback
desired could be written into the plat.

MOTION:
Commissioner Bryson moved to table this item until the next regular
meeting, seconded by Commissioner Osborne.
Motion passed unanimously
This item was also turned over to Mr. Labahn from the last meeting for
additiona'l information. This item returns'with the t~' concepts combined
per Commission instructions for consideration. This design allows for
future expansion and appears to be the most reasonable. There is still
a question on the antenna farm that cannot be resolved until such time
as it is moved. As soon as the FAA receives a general development sketch
they will be prepared to release the land.
Vice Chairman Smalley asked if a preliminary plat was needed, Mr. Labahn
stated that it was not, that a more professional sketch' would be drawn
o
up by a surveyor. '
._
MOTION:
Commissioner Bryson moved to recommend adoption of the development plan
for FAA Tract A-l/Daubenspeck S/D Tract C, seconded by Commissioner
Osborne.
Vice Chairman Smalley asked about the tract for the pioneer home, Mr.
Labahn indicated that the conservation zone could be included to bring
the acreage requirment up to their standards, the actual land itself
would not be used.
VOTE:
Motion passed unanimously.

The recommendation from the Commission at the last_ mee.~ing, was to run,
water & sewer utilities at the rear of the lots, the sketcn presenuea
shows where the lines will run. LoCs'l - 15 will run on .she east Of
lot 16. Lots 17-29 will be brought from Rogers. The size of the utility
~easements will have to be permanent construction easements of 30'.
Councilman Wise asked if the Commission were proposing to have the City
~bear the cost of putting in the water & sewer, Mr. Labahn answered whatever
the City should decide.
ICom]missioner Zubeck asked if there were any curb cuts at this time, Mr.
abahn stated that there are about 3 or 4 along Lawton.

c. Resolution PZ84-67~ Rezone Lots 1-24 Lawton Acres S/O from RS
to Conserver ion '
3err Labmhn explained that some time back, the City requested released
of this property from FAA, m preliminary plat was done in 198),
however, there were serious problems with utilities in that the newly
paved Lawton Otive would have to be torn up, and further that putting
in the utilities would be coat prohibitive. 5inca that time, a
requemt f'or purchase has been submitted rot iota l-l&. It wee the
recommendation or the Parkm & Recreation Commission that Lawton Acres
be rezoned to coneetvetion. The Planning Commission had discussed
,',.°'~tninn the treed earn-r, lots 25 th~a~qh 29 for r,nidf,ntial nnd th-

t re~..~ can b~..aved, there ,re bare nre,s on that strip, ~nd t~kinq a
,Irtv- down Lswton, there re. lly l.n't that m~sch f. raffic.
l,~rrv Wagoner, resident of Inlet View, stated that she was in favor of
the rezoninq and the inciusinn of lots 25-29. Realizing that the City
,-ouid receive revenue from the sale of thosP lots which would offset
~he cost of con. tructing the utilities, there are lot of other areas
.that could be developed. It is very costly to tear up paving and
those Iota are very small and does not feel that it w~Jld be worth th~
lose of th~ conservation/buffer strip,
Id}l~ Thompson, a resident of Inlet View .econded everythinq stated thus
t'a~ eve.pt rot Hayor Wagoner. He Is in support of the rezoning. Lot.
25'L29 became parent, to 2 .moa. this year. Aa to development with the
,,tltity situation the way it is, Just don't see it being beneficial at
~ll. it would be extremely expensive, Thes~ iota .a~e very smaJ.l_and
~]~e ones that would sit closest to the highway wou-----l-d-suffer ~-oiae------
r,o~lution to a image eytent, living there would not be desirable.
P-quest the entire strip be rezoned.
.lohn #till,ms .tated that he. is half in favor, half not.. Ih. City
would gain revenues which would help defray the cost of the. water &
c~.r e~peneem. Lots 1-16 do not have ali that many tre~s and could be
dewloped. Over the years slot of gas hm~ been poured in the. cleared
;~rea by the fire department ~ot training. ,

~oseard Hackney, ts. id.at of Inle, View, stated that he worked with the
contractor wh~ put tn the .ubdiviaion, and decided to purchase a lot
there himself. The contra.tot had promised to put tn paving so that
qhould not come e~ · surprise. There are .lot of area. that have
opened up with water & .ewer such as HEM and LACK, Section }6, there
is no need to pumh rot development or an area already settled and
?,~tet. Development would ch. nge the ch.r.ctet of the entire area.
h~ City doe. not need to develop every lot they own, eom. can he left
rot future with moms tree..
P. on 3oho. on, resident of Inlet View for a yeats stated that rot 9
months out of the year, there ia heavy traffic on Lawton due to the
~,dmooia. The use of Lawton relievem slot of ten~ion from the Spur
Highway. Me. 3ohnaon requests for al! the reasons already stated that
the entire strip be tezoned to conservation.

II Monthly Report ,,
Airport Capital Improvement Projects' An updated summary of current and future projects is
provided under information items in this packet.
Supplemental Planning Assessment RFP' If you are interested in the specifics of the RFP
currently advertised, you can access the text at www. KcnaiAirport.com.
Spruce Bark Beetle Trees: I have had several discussions with Wan Jorgensen of Spruce
Works Company Incorporated of North Kenai concerning the harvesting of the larger airport
spruce trees. This is a very exciting project because it fulfills two important needs. First, Spruce
Works is a local company that produces value added products and employs local residents.
Secondly, because the nature of their business is small, they are willing to work with the airport
to remove only the larger trees with the greatest risk of spruce bark beetle kill. This will leave
the majority of hardwood and small spruce to thrive. A smaller project working with smaller
equipment may take several years but the result will be much more esthetically pleasing than a
large operation. We hope to have a draft contract ready for review in May.
KCHS Track: Once again, the KCHS and Kenai Middle School track teams were able to get a
jump on training because their track was bare weeks ahead of SoHi and Skyview. Thanks to Earl
Hicks and Swede for taking the airport snowblower and loader over to clear the way.
Transportation Security Administration (TSA): No word yet on passenger screening. They
continue to screen 100% of baggage. The passenger hold room expansion project is waiting for
a firm commitment from TSA. By putting the project on hold, I risk missing the grant deadline
for this year. This could place the airport in a situation where we need to do construction out of
fund balance and reimburse from a grant next year. While this is not an optimal situation, it is
better than going to grant for an unnecessary project. Good fiscal stewardship is especially
important when you consider I plan to request over 4 million in discretionary grant funds for the
runway project in '05.
4th Annual Kenai Peninsula Air Fair- Saturday, May 22, 2004: The air fair is rapidly
moving ahead. The Committee, with approval of the Airport Commission, has changed the event
name from Central Peninsula Air Fair to the Kenai Peninsula Air Fair. This change is intended
to better identify with the Kenai-Soldotna area. The Fun Flight will include floatplanes in
addition to wheels. Event information and Fun Flight registration forms will be available at
www. KenaiAirport.com. The EAA breakfast will be at the Soldoma Airport from 8am-1 l pm
with the event moving to the Kenai Airport from l pm-3pm for the barbeque and Fun Flight
awards. There will also be a Military Appreciation Event. The VFW senior Veterans, the Civil
Air Patrol and the Young Marines will present color guards. Different branches of the military
have committed aircraf~ for static displays. T-shirts, posters, and postcards should be available
April 29th. Vendors are welcome to setup booths and adVertise. The is no vendor table fee. If
you know anyone who would be interested in having a booth or donating a prize for the poker
mn please contact Mary Bondurant at 283-7951 x22.

Re:
Monthly Report-April
Thc KEDS committee has held several meetings in the last month and work is
progressing nicely. The committee held an all day work session where a great deal or
work was done. The business development section is pretty well complete with the other
sections being worked on. KEDS should be ready for a public presentation of its work in
the very near future.
In other areas, I will be working on a package to send to Northern Dynasty to encourage
them to locate their activities, as much as possible, in the City of Kenai. Their mineral
extraction activities on the other side of the Cook Inlet should be very compatible with
traditional industrial activities in the Kenai area, and as such we view them as an
excellent prospect to locate in Kenai.
I will be attending the Kenai Economic Development District's all-day forum on the 16*
of April and should have information to convey in next month's report.

Monthly Report for March
Total number of days rented in March:
1 Dny
Since the inception of our Meal Program it has continually grown. Based on a fiscal year
(July- June) the following statistics have been gathered:
2000 871 Clients Provided 21,309 Meals
2001
2002
2003
1,069 Clients Provided 24,744 Meals 16% Increase
1,082 Clients Provided 26,113 Meals 5.5 % Increase
1,146 Clients Provided 28,597 Meals 9.5% Increase
2004 Average estimate of figures from July thru February projects an increase of
at least 6.7%. By the end of our current fiscal year, our client count will have reached
above 1,146 and we will have served 29,256 to 31,000 meals.
Our meal program is comprised of the NTS clients and our Project Choice clients. The
NTS Program is a state fimded program, any senior individual 60 and over qualify and
the Program is not "means" tested. The Project Choice client must meet an income
requirement, be assessed for nursing home care but chooses to stay in their home. These
are two very different programs; both programs are needed within our community. Our
Choice Waiver clients and meal counts are up. This for me is reflective of "aging in
place" and our seniors we have been serving, as NTS clients are becoming Choice Waiver
clients. Our clients are not going to a nursing home but staying in their home and we are
providing services.
Transportation
March 2004 Rides
Unassisted Rides:
Assisted Trans:
311 Clients up 52°/$ from last month
424 Clients up 67% from last month.
Our volunteers logged in 885 hours for the month of March.
The Senior Connection, Inc. and the Central Peninsula Writer's Group held "Reading &
Dinner" fundraiser at the senior center. It was very successful and will become a yearly
event.
The area-wide Village Health Fair was held on Saturday, March 13. The area wide senior
centers shared a booth with information concerning each of the senior centers,
transportation and meal programs, and provided resources to the community.
125 seniors attended our annual St. Patrick's Day Birthday Party, "Wearing of the Green"
parade.
An activity survey was conducted by our activity/volunteer director. 350 surveys were
distributed through our newsletter and handed out at the reception desk. 25 surveys were
turned back in and completed. The surveys were asking seniors if the senior center was
providing the activities that fit there needs and what additional, if any activities they
would like to have added. Some conclusions from the survey:
1. Weekly scheduled events are on the correct day for participation.
2. Popular activities seniors participate in and want to continue are bingo,
pinochle, and line dancing.
3. New activities that have been included are bell ringing, cribbage lessons, and a
weekly book review club.
4. Activities that we do not provide but interest shown: swimming, karaoke, and
dances in the evening.
The director completed the Rasmuson and NTS Grants. The Rasmuson grant is for the
Senior Center Kitchen Project. The United Way Grant and we will make application to
renegtiate the Medicaid reimbursement rate.

aquifer delineation to fine-.tune the be~t well site location. We have dc~::id~l to con~ntmte on the small
upland area within 10 acres for the well house site and not do the electromagnetic delineation.
Streetli¢lhts: We are looking into having North Coast Electdc maintain a stockpile of street light parts for us
in our yard. Kachemak Electric is,now helping the city maintain str~tlights that am on steel poles.

grease traps in sewer lines where applicable.
Futura PO's: The bid for maintenance sand is out. We also have some items for water secudty that will
need to be done as soon as weather permits.

Monthly Report- March 2004
Providing consistem, well-groomed trails throughout the latter part of March was a
challenge; cold evenings and warm days always presem a challenge due to the freezing
and thawing actions. Grooming efforts were restricted to the early mornings hours with
excellent spring-like skiing conditions throughout the afternoons. Grooming efforts
seized as of March 25~ due to insufficient snow in some areas.
March marked the end of hockey at the Multi-Purpose Facility for the season. A total of
103.75 hours were booked for March. KPHA's Summer Hockey Clinic will be held at
the Cemral Peninsula Sports Center due to some new components being added to the
Clinic and the need for classroom space.
Preliminary plans for the summer dip net fishery have been initiated with the ordering of
fee envelopes, staffing schedules, and the construction of warming shacks. The Director
has also been involved with developing an RFP for a Multi-Purpose Flea Market,
developing the Community Garden Program, and completed a Land and Water
Conservation Post Completion Inspection for several of our local parks.
Other activities included the purchase of a used zam from the City of Soldotna, planting
of flower bulbs at the City Greenhouse, and painting of the MPF warming shacks. Micah
Rogers attended a two-day OSHA training session and the Director completed a pesticide
certification course.

Subject: Kenai Community Library - monthly report for March 2004
The Library staff has been working very hard last month re-cataloging old materials to conform to Horizon (our
new integrated library system) standards. At the same time we had a 24% jump in our circulation numbers and
still are ahead 9.7% of the same time last year (despite being closed on Sundays!!!). We are really happy to see
that the biggest increases were in the juvenile categories - 30% in Easy Fiction, 49% in Juvenile Fiction and
26.5% in Juvenile Non-Fiction. It is really wonderful to see that the kids are reading more.
We received a small grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities - 15 books for children and young
adults that comprise the 2004 We the People Bookshelf. The grant awarded to 500 libraries across the United
States is part of the National Endowment for the Humanities initiative to increase the study and understanding of
American history and heritage. The 15 hardcover copies of American classics reflect this year's theme of
"Courage". In addition to the books we also received bookmarks and posters to publicize this program. We hope
to have a children's program on "Courage" in the Fall.
On March 29 the Friends of the Library sponsored an evening of storytelling by Donald Davis. More than 60
people enjoyed Mister Davis's stories of his childhood in Appalachia. http:llwww.ddavisstoryteller.coml
'i ~,We would lOve to have more opportunities for evenings like this in the future.

"Other" includes investigations, public assists, mutual aid, search/rescue, hazmat, alarms, ARFF.
We continued EOC development plans and moved a request through the Homeland Security
Grant process with KPD through the Borough OEM and other Peninsula communities.
The planning with Nikiski, CES and the military for the WMD drill this summer, including
military training at training center, is progressing well, with regular meetings scheduled
beginning May 6~.
We took delivery of the replacement ambulance last week, and it is being prepared for service.
We developed a general safety policy for use of schools to house students for events, and a
specific policy and plan for use of schools during the 2006 AWG. This process included
cooperation of our department, CES and the KPBSD.
Our department hosted one of six National Fire Academy Incident Command courses in the
Pacific Northwest this month. It was attended by about 30 public safety people from across the
State and private fire brigade members from the Slope. We have been selected to host one of
three courses for the region in July. These are free courses that are generally only available at the
National Fire Academy in Maryland.
.
We began drafting City-specific information for the Borough All Hazard Mitigation Plan
(HAZMIT) in cooperation with City Manager Snow, Public Works and the Borough OEM. This
Plan is required by FEMA for reimbursement follOWing a disaster, and for grants for mitigation
efforts.
We assisted the home office of Enstar in developing a Carbon Monoxide (CO) response plan to
better coordinate efforts with public safety.
We were awarded a 2004 Federal Fire ACT Grant in the amount of $45,000 for mobile radio
repeaters, and we are in the process of developing specs and preparing for installing the systems
in all fire and police vehicles.

Terminal Vehicle Parking Lot Changes and Fees
In response to Council's request to assess possible revenue sources and the ongoing issue of
overcrowding in the terminal long-term parking lot, I have attached a drawing of proposed changes to the
terminal short-term lot.
The attached proposal will change the parking configuration and provide 19 short-term spaces directly in
front of the terminal. I propose to sign these spaces "limit 2 hours free parking". The remaining 80
spaces will be reserved for 2-48 hour parking with a cost of $2.00 for 2-24 hours and an additional $2.00
for 24-48 hours. Vehicles parked in this lot over 48 hours will be fined or towed. Pay boxes installed at
the ends of the rows will have slots for the parking space number that allows payment without the hassle
of filling out a payment envelope. There are several commercial products available for this type of
parking.
A review of parking lot receipts from the long term-parking lot revealed over 30% of the cars in long-term
are there for one or two days. The proposed system will move those cars to the shod-term lot; freeing up
spaces in the very crowded long-term lot.
An informal count of vehicles in the shod-term lot revealed 20-50 cars a day utilizing the lot for a period of
2 - 18 hours. Charging for parking in excess of 2 hours will earn somewhere between $15,000 and
$30,000 additional revenue in the first year. This revenue will be offset by the cost of modifications that
are estimated at $22,000. There will also be the cost of employee time for enforcement. I do not envision
new employees; current employees would be tasked with monitoring and ticketing.
Airport Commission recommended approval of this plan at their April 8, 2004 meeting. If Council
approves, I will proceed with design and bids that will come back to Council along with a request for
appropriation of funds from the Terminal Retained Earnings account which has a balance of over 1.5
million.

PUBLIC COMME~
Porter Pollard, of Soldotna, is the vice chair of the Kenai/Soldotna Fish
& Game Advisory Committee. Porter recommends that the working group
includes a person who likes to fish and has no vested interest in the fishery
otherwise. He doesn't ~ the Governor meant for the working group to
solve all the problems, only the guide issue.
Dwight Kramer, Chairman of the Kenai/Soldoma Fish & Game advisory
committee, thanked Robin West for opening the last work session to the
public. He thinks that went very well because a lot of input was provided
by folks other than the KRSMA Board members. Two issues came out of
their F&G advisory committee meeting that he would like to see happen.
One is to see the Kenai River advisory board support HB 452. Second he
wants to talk about enforcement on the Kenai River. In 1984 there were 6
Commissioned Rangers, 2 Technicians, 3 Troopers and several Refuge
personnel. Today there are 3 Rangers, 2 Troopers and Refuge personnel,
so it's clear that enforcement staff is spread thin. Since 1984 there have
been more bank closures, more parks opened and boat launches have come
on line, which means more for them to monitor. There have also been

more regulation changes such as no fishing on Monday's to enforce. He
recommends that the board support increased law enforcement efforts for
the fiver.
NEW BUSINESS
A. Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan, Joy Bryan-
Dolsby, DNR-DPOR
Using a PowerPoint presentation, Joy gave a brief history of the Land and
Water Conservation Fund, one of the grant programs that she administers
for the Division of Parks. The LWCF program provides a variety of
opportunities for grants for State, Borough, Federal and other agencies.
The State Matching Grant Program can provide funds to acquire land for
parks and recreation, build or improve recreation facilities and to promote
statewide recreation planning. This program is also for local government
entities with park and recreation powers.
Over the years, there have been 44 grants provided to state and local
communities on the Kenai Peninsula, totaling about 4 million dollars.
The SCORP is the Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan,
Which acts as a guide for recreation-related land acquisitions, facility
development and policy for the' State of Alaska. The SCORP must assess
the supply and demand for outdoor recreation, contain a wetlands
component that identifies wetlands with high recreation values and include
an implementation component that outlines recommended actions
consistent with plan goals. Every five years, the state must update the
SCORP to remain eligible for funding under the LWCF program. This
effort is part of that update process.
Community recreation needs are identified by this plan through the use of
mail out surveys sent to recreation users throughout Alaska, a mail out
survey sent to all recreation providers in Alaska including municipal
governments, a telephone survey conducted throughout Alaska and via
public meetings.

orientated facilities, professional sports facilities, indoor recreation
facilities and commercial entertainment.
Joy asked the board and public present to provide her with input on
statewide issues, goals and recommended strategies.
Jonne S. asked what types of recreational opportunity planning should be
considered to round out a community's needs. Joy says the community
needs to decide that.
Jeff K. asked if the program can be used for maintenance. Joy said no,
although some projects are major rehabilitation projeets when. a facility is
worn out beyond its useful life.
Rick W. asked if there were funds available for conducting water quality
work on a waterway like the Kenai River. Joy stated that that type of
program would not qualify.
Dave W. had a question regarding Cooper Landing projects that have been
on hold for some time due to lack of funding. He wanted to know what
we could do to get those moving. Joy said that once we get the SCORP
approved we are hoping to have the application ready in the fall and
notices will be sent out to every, community in the municipal officials
directory letting them know the funding is available, and how to apply.
Since it is not an incorporated community, Cooper Landing would have to
apply through the Kenai Peninsula Borough.
The timetable for the update is to have the draft on the Governor's desk by
the end of June.

A. Kenai River Working Group -discussion of issues and representation
from 3/11 work session; Gary Morrison, Director, DPOR
Gary Morrison discussed the last board meeting and what was going to be
Covi~red between then and now, including recommending the make up of
the working' group and isolating the issues. The board's work session on
March 1 i produced a long list of issues, but as was discussed earlier
"tonight, this task.will not solve every issue on the Kenai River, rather, only
.. the pressing issues. He asked the board if anythingni~¢dcd to be added to
this list and if the board is'ready t° move forward 'to the Commissioner
~' ' ' with recommendations on working group membership.
Kenai River Special Management Area Advisory Board
March 18, 2003 Meeting Minutes
Page 4 of 7 ,
Chris said KRSA has offered to assist with funding for the process. Two
major issues for the working group were recommended in the last work
session:
· Devise a fair and legal way of setting numeric limits on
commercial operations, including sportfishing guides, rental boat
operations and other on-water commercial activities on the Kenai
River.
· Make recommendations to set specific numeric limits for
commercial operations including sportfishing guides, rental boat
operations, and other on-water commercial activities on the Kenai
River.
The group felt that if those two questions could be answered, that would
be a huge benefit to the river community.
The 3/11 work session also discussed working group make up. It was
decided that the agency representatives that are listed in the
Commissioner's letter to Rep. Kelly Wolf should be non-voting advisors.
This group would consist of Gary Momson, Chair, plus representatives
from the Dept. of Law, Dept. of Fish and Game and Dept. of
Environmental Conservation. Recommendations for the working group
included:
.
Working Group Members- 12 total:
Kenai River Professional Guide Association- 2'members
Unaffiliated Guide- 2 members (Note: 1 of the 4 total guides
should be a drift guide)
· Kenai River Property Owner's Association
· - Member of KRSMA board Commercial Operator Committee
· Kenai/Soldotna F&G Advisory Committee representative
· Rental boat bu,~..s, iness
· Kenai Pen. Borough - representing municipalities
· .~ Unaffiliated sport angler
· Large business w/multiple guides
· - KRSMA Advisory Board member
Joe C..said there was some discussion on other potential members from
other groups. The main concern is that the selection of the group and start
of the process needs, to be done.in a timely manner and a timetable needs
:, ..- ~ '. :.: , '.to be set. - .. -- .'~ '-' '
~.~ ~. . ; ........ ~ · .

·
Dave W2 asked how this.process might affect guides with permits in the
Refuge's upper fiver area, as they are already limited there. Chris said
-' ' that Robin had previously brought up a point that what if this process
Kenai River Special Management Area Advisory Board
March 18, 2003 Meeting Minutes
Page 5 of 7
identifies some sort of limitation program that may not select someone
who has an upper river permit and them could be some conflict there.
Dave said it ought to be looked at differently than the lower fiver, and this
will be an issue to keep in mind as we proceed.
Joe C. made a motion to accept items 1 & 2 for the working group.
Seconded by Bill S. Roland M. agreed to the motion but asked if the
working group will be restricted to what is listed.
Gary Momson said we need to get our attorney down here to work with
the working group on the legality of these issues. And yes, these can be
modified later but they look good to be passed on to the Commissioner.
Motion:carried. ' '
Joe C. made a motion to accept the proposed working group makeup as
recommended in the 3/11 work session. Jonne S. seconded. Jeff K. said
that we might add KRSA as a member since they are helping to pay for the
process. Jonne S. said she agrees maybe they should be added as a voting
member, but does not agree to add them based on their funding of this
process.- :-
Jeff K. agreed that that was a more appropriate justification and
recommended that KRSA be added as a voting member.
.
Bill S. said it is good to have an odd 'number of members so as not to have
any ties in voting.
Jeff K. said we need to also include at least one new guide in the
membership makeup.
Ken asked who would piek the working group members.
Gary M. thought that once the working group list was finalized and
forwarded to the Commissioner that we would solicit invitations for
membership on the working group.
Motion passed.
·
·
Board discussed the timeline of this process for the next cOuple months.
Gary M. said he will try to meet with the attorney to get preliminary
-'~ ,.,-~. .... ~'- feedback now to find out if we are on the fight track. ·

B. Commercial Operator Committee Report
Joe-Connors said the Committee has 4 new members. The group
discussed a number of issues at the committee meeting, including:
· COncern with the difficulty of getting permits now because of the
DMV requirement that their vehicles have commercial registration.
· Second is concern of increased violations with rental boat
operators. Joe said Bill Berkhahn spoke about the development of
a new orientation program for rental boat operators and there is
also a recommendation that rental boat owners sit in on the
orientation just like new guides have to.
· Third are the Kenai/Soldotna Fish & Game Advisory Committee
concerns regarding the need for more enforcement, which the
committee also supports.
· 'Kenai fiver watch' program was also brought up, but not in lieu of
enforcement.
A motor exemption for Dan McDowell was also discussed for his
new handicap accessible boat.
· The new guide-training program is currently in serious negotiations
with the college to establish a temporary syllabus for the program
and identifying teachers.
· The committee endorsed the two items discussed earlier and the
working group composition also.
Ken L. asked Joe C. if we could add the boat rental item to the next
agenda. Joe said that is fine.
V®
PUBLIC COMMENT
Porter Pollard, of Soldotna, would appreciate seeing a slot on the working
group for "Joe fisherman.'~'; The issue of enforcement is a big one and
when there are cuts, enforcement should be the last area that is cut.
Dwight Kramer said that the Federal government had staff that went to
facilitator training and were able to be used by other federal agencies.
Does the State have'a Pool of facilitators to tap into?

March-April 2004 Edition
Welcome to "The Mission Link", the monthly newsletter of the Challenger Learning
Center of Alaska (CLCA).
April is Our Busy Season
This month's calendar is jam-packed with school missions, workshops and overnight
stays in our new "space dorms" as we enter our busy season here at the Challenger
Center. We have a number of schools scheduled to come through our doors, many of
them with back-to-back programming on the same day. Although by the time the
season's over we're a little wom out, we thoroughly enjoy watching students get excited
about applying their knowledge in science, math and technology. We believe these
positive experiences in critical thinking are a big factor in encouraging students to
consider careers in these fields!
Summer Camp Registration Now Open
The Challenger Learning Center of Alaska will bring back its summer camp program
beginning in June. With the recent addition of our new space dorms, we'll be offering
both day and residential camps for interested students ages 10-14 (as well as their
parent, grandparent or guardian). The dorms sleep 19 on each side (boys and girls) and
were designed using the International Space Station theme.
At Cosmic Adventure Camp, campers will learn about flight, how the human body
responds in space, rocketry and robotics. An underwater adventure will simulate working
in the weightlessness of zero gravity, and there will be lots of other fun activities at
camp!
In addition to the Cosmic Adventure Camps, we'll also host Flight Overnights, which
are short, one-night camps that begin Friday night and end Saturday afternoon. We'll fly
a mission, spend time doing fun science activities, and sleep in the space dorms!
For campers age 7-9, Challenger Learning Center will offer the Young Astronauts
program, a day camp that focuses on rocketry and robotics for the younger crowd.
To register for any of the camps, please contact the Center at (907) 283-2000.
Challen.qer Learnin.q Center Partners with Alaska Aerospace Development
Corporation..
Challenger Center has partnered with the Alaska Aerospace Development
Corporation/Kodiak Launch Facility in a Booster Club intended to provide launch
merchandise for the complex and operating funds for CLCA.
100% of the proceeds from the sale of merchandise are donated to the Challenger
Learning Center to contribute to our mission of "Inspiring the Next Generation". The
merchandise includes high-quality, launch-specific and general AADC hats, coats, vests,
travel mugs, t-shirts, polo and rugby shirts, and long-sleeve button-down dress shirts.
The first edition of the AADC Booster Club catalog went out recently and merchandise
will be available online via credit card when our redesigned website goes online in about
a month. In the meantime, please give us a call at (907) 283-2000 if you'd like to have a
copy of the catalog mailed or e-mailed to you.
E-Mission Scholarships Available
We have scholarships available to participate in an Internet mission, which we call an "e-
Mission". "Operation Montserrat" gives students in grades 5-12 the opportunity to serve
as an emergency response team and make decisions for the residents of a tiny island in
the Caribbean threatened as two natural disasters (a hurricane and an erupting volcano)
overtake the island at the same time. Should the residents be relocated? Evacuated? If
so, by what route ? This is a distance education simulation that gives students a fun,
exciting way to practice critical thinking skills and apply and analyze the science
principles they've studied. The e-Mission currfculum is aligned to state and national
standards, and professional development credit is available for teachers.
Scholarships are on a first-come, first-served basis, with full scholarships for teachers
new to e-Missions and partial scholarships for teachers with prior e-Mission experience.
CLCA staff can assist with the technology involved in setting up your classroom for this
distance-delivered event, so put away your textbooks and get on board!
Contact Tamra Wear, CLCA Lead Flight Director at (907) 283-2000 or
tamra, wear~,akchallenger, org for scholarship application materials.
Teacher Continuing Education Class Scheduled for Fall
The Kenai Peninsula Science Education Consortium will be offering a 3-credit class this
fall for continuing education credit for teachers. The course will consist of a two-day visit
(probably a Friday evening and a Saturday) once a month for three months (September,
October, and November), with one weekend spent at each of the three Kenai Peninsula
science centers: Challenger Learning Center, Islands and Ocean Center, and Alaska
SeaLife Center. The credits may be split up, with teachers attending one weekend for
one credit, or all 3 weekends for 3 credits. Contact CL CA for more information.

Investment Report
At March 31, 2004 the City investment portfolio had a market value of $33,764,057.80
and the portfolio yield is 2.28% compared to 2.57% last year. The breakdown of types
of investments held is:
US Agency Securities
AML Investment Pool
Bank Balance
$30,157,500.68
$ 1,723,675.19
$ 1,882,881.93
Rates continue to hover near all time lows; however, recently rates have increased due
to sentiment that the Federal Reserve may raise short term rates. Inflation concerns
are fueling this speculation as well as recent positive job creation information.
My base strategy of investing these funds is to buy and hold. As cash is available I
invest it at the best rates available within the time frames necessary to meet cash flow
needs. Many of the securities in the portfolio are callable, which means the issuer can
redeem the security for the par amount at their option. A call occurs only when rates
are falling, which means that the investor will reinvest at a lower rate of interest. On a
very infrequent basis I sell a security to increase yield by purchasing another higher
yielding investment. If you have any questions or comments about the City's
investments please contact me. A copy of the portfolio is attached.
