CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT LIST DEVELOPMENT:
Mayor Porter opened the work session at approximately 7:00 p.m. She thanked
administration for preparing the packet of information relating to capital improvement
projects; noted, of the items on last year's list, none were funded; and, referring to the
handouts on the table, noted pages 19, 20, and 21 were replacement pages (copy was
darker, nothing changed), and page 33 was an addition to the packet, a project from
the Fire Department, which was on last year's list. Porter added, the information
packet could be used for state requests, possible bonding projects, and possible
appropriations from the General Fund.
A general discussion followed regarding projects included on the list. A more specific
discussion took place relating to possible upgrades to the multipurpose facility to
satisfy the needs for its use during the Arctic Winter Games in 2006.
Rick Baldwin -- Suggested the following:
· Fix the condensation problems.
Add radiant heating at the player, penalty, and scorekeeper boxes as well
as over the bleacher area.
Porter noted, a work session with representatives of the Arctic Winter Games is
scheduled for December 13, 2004 at 7'00 p.m.
A general discussion continued related to choosing projects from the packet. The
philosophy of council was to choose projects which probably would be viewed with
more favor by the Legislature, i.e. enhancing the city's infrastructure, as well as health
and safety issues. With that in mind, the following projects were listed as priorities,
though in no specific order:
· Road improvements, drainage and parking lot improvements.
· Street lights
· Coastal Trail (use 30% of estimated cost of the project and identify it that
way on the list).
· State of Alaska Dip Net Fishery
a. New or Upgrade of Dock Access road
b. Dock Area Paving
c. New Restrooms
· Establish VIP Subdivision non-potable water well with dry hydrant.

Comments in developing the list included:
· This request would be used to establish a road improvement fund
because the state capital matching grants are no longer available for road projects.
Some projects (park improvements, development of soccer fields, library
expansion, etc.) would be better taken to the voters in a bond proposition, though they
speak to "quality of life," it would be difficult to receive legislative support for them.
· Request 30% of the estimated cost of the coastal trail project instead of
the full amount because it may be more attainable, and because 30% would represent
a non-federal share of required matching funds. Any funds received from the state
could be used by the city to begin fight-of-way acquisition work.
· Administration is to identify the projects noted on the list and attach cost
amounts. Council will prioritize the projects at the December 15, 2004 meeting when
the resolution is before them. The resolution will be forwarded to the Kenai Peninsula
Borough Assembly for inclusion in their project packet.
Talk to Legislators about' · Water quality
Water storage tank
· Arctic Winter Games/upgrades to the multipurpose facility.

RE' Capital Improvement Project I CIP) Narratives
Attached please find project narratives for current, ongoing, and proposed capital improvement
projects for the City of Kenai. The projects described herein are in various stages of
development, from conception only to partial or full designs. These narratives form the
beginning of an effort to develop a more formalized Capital Improvement Plan for the City of
Kenai, which should serve to assist the Council in prioritizing, tracking, and funding projects
itself and/or by seeking bond funding, state or federal funding as it deems necessary,.
Typically, around this time each year, Council will consider a Resolution (Sample Resolution
No. 2004-02 attached) adopting the CIP priority list for requesting State and Federal funding for
the projects on the list. The administration is providing this packet to assist you in selecting the
projects for your (CIP) priority list and to give you an overview of selections you may wish to
consider for a General Obligation bond package for submittal to the voters.
Finance Director Larry Semmens has indicated the current rate for 20-year maturity municipal
bonds is around 4.5% and provided further information as follows: Debt service is not usually
constant over the life of a bond issue; however, if an issue were structured that way, the annual
debt service per million of debt would be $77,000. At 5%, the debt service would be about
$80,00 per year. Assuming the City's taxable assessed value is $400,000,000, the tax rate to
cover debt service is about .2 mils per million of debt. This equates to $20 per $100,000 of
taxable value.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
PROJECT NAME: KENAI EROSION CONTROL & COASTAL TRAIL PROJECT
ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $14,000,000
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES. Federal Government (Army Corps of Engineers)
State Capital Budget
City of Kenai Funa Balance
General Obligation Bond
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Through the years, the City of Kenai has commissioned many studies and reports for
related to controlling riverbank erosion in the area of the lower Kenai River. The areas
of study have included Kenai River sedimentation, dredging, hydrology, and rates of
erosion. A 1997 Corps of Engineers Reconnaissance Report stated, "The area of public
property at most dsk from bluff erosion is the shore at the site of the Kenai Senior
Center. The erosion rate is not known without further study, but can be assumed to
vary from 10 to 20 feet per year, based on rates in similar circumstances elsewhere."
The rate of erosion is currently estimated at between five to ten feet per year along a
one-mile length beginning at a point near the Kenai Beach Road. In 1998, the City
hired Peratrovich, Nottingham, & Drage, Inc. (PN&D) to perform a Reconnaissance
Level Study for an erosion control project. In 1999, PN&D produced a project design
concept report for a Kenai erosion control and coastal trail project. This report
included a schematic design, right-of-way property impacts, preliminary environmental
considerations, and a rough project cost estimate. The basic design method of erosion
control recommended by PN&D is a rock revetment or riprap method, with a coastal trail
on top for restoration purpose. PN&D completed its third contract with the City, which
consisted of working on the environmental and permitting requirements of this project.
Approximately $120,000 of City funds has been spent on PN&D's work.
In 2002, the US Corps of Engineers was allocated $500,000 to perform a technical
evaluation/reconnaissance study of Kenai riverbank stabilization needs to move the
Project closer to being able to obtain the necessary permitting and design work. The
City continues to work cooperatively in conjunction with the Corps dudng this evaluation
phase. The Corps is scheduled to complete the evaluation study in March 2005.
In 2004, the US Corps of Engineers was allocated an additional $500,000 to perform
permitting and design work needed to move the project forward to the construction
phase. The City anticipates continued cooperation with the Corps in order to work
through any environmental permitting issues which may arise.

PROJECT NAME:
Kenai Vehicle Maintenance Facility
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS'
$4 million based ut~on a 1998 estimate, including inflation, contingencv, and A/E
services. Annual operaUon and maintenance costs would be simiiar to the new au'pon
Operations Facility.
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES:
The City General Fund, Enterprise and Special Revenue Funds, Bonds, etc., could all be
considered for funding of this facility, as vehicle maimenance serves all City
departmems. We have expended approximately $100,000 to date fi'om an original
$250,000 State of Alaska gram for preliminary ME services. The remaining funds from
this grant have been re-appropriated to environmental work within the shop site.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION'
At this time we have design development stage plans and specifications for a 24,967-
square-foot facility. Should the presem design be utilized, we would complete final
project documents and go to bid for construction. The above cost estimate is based upon
this design concept. This facility concept could also be reviewed for cost savings by
reducing building size and/or use, implement phased construction, or even utilize the
design-build method of construction. Building Maimenance was initially programmed to
occupy the facility. However, we have converted space in Warm Storage Building No. 1
for this need. The vehicle maimenance area of the facility could be downsized with an
option for future expansion. It's possible that a new facility could function initially with
funds estimated at $3 million or less.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
About 35 percent of the City of Kenai's 63 miles of roads are not paved or were paved
20 or 30 years ago an0 are in Dacl s~ape.
This project is for paving and upgrading many gravel roads such as McCollum/Aliak, Set
Net Drive, Ames Roacl, Barabara Drive, Angler Drive, anti otl~ers.
This project would also include reconstructing and repaying existing badly damaged
paved roacls such as Wildwood Dnve, the roads in Mommsen Subdivision, Silver
Salmon Drive, King Salmon Drive, and others.
It would also include chip and seal reconditioning of roads such as in Woodland
Sub0ivision, Redoubt Subdivision, Inlet View Sub0ivision, Central Heigl~ts Sul:x:livision,
VIP Subdivision, Old Town, and other subdivisions.
Property owners would be asked to pay for 50% of the cost of paving gravel roads
through a "Local Improvement District."

PROJECT NAME' Kenai Municipal Airport Parallel Taxiway Project
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS' $3,600,000 Detailed cost estimates and
breakdowns are being prepared under contract to Wince-Corthell-Bryson for design and
engineering of the project. FAA requires estimated cost figures for planning and
programming; detailed cost estimates are on schedule for completion in February 2005.
Annual operations and maintenance cost estimates are not available at this time, however
the improved efficiency of airport snow removal operations made possible by this project
should keep the annual maintenance cost (including pavement repair and paint striping)
under $10,000.
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES' The Kenai Municipal Airport obtains funding
fi'om the federal Airport Improvement Program (AIP), which assists in the development
of a nationwide system of public-use airports by providing funding for airport planning
and development projects at airports included in the National .Plan of Integrated Airport
Systems (NPIAS). The NPIAS identifies more than 3,300 airports that are significant to
national air transportation and thus eligible to receive Federal grants under the AIP. It
also includes estimates of the amount of AIP money needed to fund infrastructure
development projects that will bring these airports up to current design standards and add
capacity to congested airports. FAA is required to provide Congress with a 5-year
estimate of AIP eligible development every 2 years. This taxiway project has received
approval from the Alaska Region FAA Airports office for inclusion in the NPIAS.
Funding is based on a complicated formula accounting for the number of passengers
served, cargo, and size of airport. Alaskan airports enjoy strong Congressional support
due to the lack of an adequate road system to serve all communities.
The current AIP program allows Federal funding of this project at 95% with the
remaimng 5% split evenly between the Kenai Airport Fund and the State of Alaska. The
State of Alaska participates in Airport project funding at 2.5% to support the critical
aviation transportation system within the State of Alaska.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The FAA requires all projects programmed for AIP
funding be studied and approved in the Airport Master Plan. This process ensures all
projects go through the appropriate public hearing process and review by the airport and
FAA for purpose and need. A full-length parallel taxiway has been a recommendation of
all recent Kenai Mumcipal Airport master plans.
The 1979 Master Plan recommended a full length Design Group IV parallel taxiway
separated fi'om the runway by 600 feet, with bypass taxiways at the ends of the nmway.
The 1987 Master Plan recommended a full parallel taxiway 400 feet from the runway. A
600 foot separation was considered, but a 400 foot separation was recommended to
minimize conflicts with other taxiways and to also serve a future parallel general aviation
runway separated fi'om the main runway by 800 feet. Based on forecasts at that time the
north end of the taxiway was to be built in 1991-1995 and the south end in the 1996 -
2005 timeframe.
A full length parallel taxiway separated from the main runway by 600 feet and with
b.vpass taxiways was recommended in the 1997 Master Plan. The 600 foot separation
was designed to fit with the new location of a proposed general aviation runway (which
has since been built). The south segment of the parallel taxiway was planned for the
2002 to 2006 timeframe.
-Faxiway C, the center section of a parallel taxiway, a Design Group VI Taxiway offset
from t~e runway by 000 feet. was built in the ~970's and the north section was built in
the late 1990's. The two existing sections combined extend for about 4,500 feet.
According to the FAA AC 150/5300-13, section 405, "A basic airport consists of a
runway with a full length parallel taxiway, an apron, and connecting transverse
taxiways between the runway, parallel taxiway, and the apron." Furthermore.
Appendix 16 of this Advisory Circular (Tables A16-1A-C) indicates a full-length
parallel taxiway is required for precision instrumented and non-precision
instrumented runways with less than 1 statute mile visibility, minimums. The helps
ensure aircraft are not on the airfield in Iow visibility conditions, when an arriving or
departing aircraft or the tower may be unable to see all aircraft on the airfield. The Kenai
Airport has Runway 19 landing minimums of V2 mile and according to these standards
should have a full-length parallel taxiway.
A full-length parallel taxiway also improves airfield capacity by enabling aircraft to avoid
taxiing on the runway or exit the runway sooner, making the rtmway available for more
arrivals and depamu'es. Because the full-length parallel taxiway does not exist today,
some aircraft must taxi on the runway upon arrival or must taxi through the terminal area
or on the runway to reach the departure end of Runway 1.
According to the 1987 and 1997 master plans, the full-length parallel taxiway would
increase airfield capacity from 78 operations per hour in VFR conditions to 93 operations
per hour and from 27 operations in IFR conditions to 59 operations. According to the
Master Plans, while airfield capacity was not a concern during much of the day, it could
sometimes become an issue during peak use periods and will become an increasing
concern as traffic grows.
Flexibility during construction and resurfacing of the primary nmway or during
emergency closures is another compelling reason for this project. A full-length parallel
taxiway can be reconfigured, in some instances, for temporary use of a nmway. This
may occur in Kenai when the existing nmway is closed for an extended time for
resurfacing or possibly for extending the runway safety area and nmway. According to
several of the primary airport users, a 75 foot wide taxiway is an acceptable width for
temporary use as a runway during non-snow and ice conditions.
The Kenai Airport airfield is designed to an Airport Reference Code of C-IV. This
parallel taxiway will be designed to that same standard.
The existing 4,500 foot partial parallel taxiway is separated from the runway by 600 feet.
The proposed extension of that taxiway to the south enci of the runway, would continue
that 600 foot separation. It would also provide sufficient separation for a future high
speed nmway exit taxiway, should one ever be needed.
In assessing the design of this taxiway consideration was given to the idea of a 400 foot
separation. The primary advantage of a 400 foot separation would be that it, combined
with other apron and taxiway changes, would ena0ie much more apron anti lease lot
depth and space than exists today. However, if the airport should ever decide to construct
a parallel taxiway 400 feet from the runway in the future, the existing parallel taxiway
would be located such that it could become a future apron edge taxiway. In other words,
the 600 foot parallel taxiway provides flexibility for future possible changes to the
airfield to gain additional apron and lease lot space and depth. Other reasons to maintain
the 600 foot offset are that a 400 foot offset would be constructed through an existing
airfield drainage area and through a former airport borrow and construction disposal site.
These issues, combined with the fact that half of the parallel taxiway with a 600 foot
separation is already in place would cause a taxiway with a 400 foot separation to have
significantly higher costs.
The parallel taxiway is depicted in the attached Airport Layout Drawing (ALP) as a
dotted line indicating the future construction.

PROJECT NAME' Kenai Multi-Purpose Facility
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS:
a. Alternative t
$60,000.00
Facility remains as is. with no change in use. Facility allows for limited combustible
contents and will be required to meet the following: 1 ) Non coml~ustible construction
ancl construction (as is, no flea market), wall and roof beam protection for 15-minute
thermal barrier. Beam protection serves fire purposes ancl should reduce
condensation dripping.
b. Alternative II
$257,000.00
Facility is usecl as hockey rink for majority of year anct allows seasonal use that may
include limited combustible contents (flea market, etc.) ancl other uses. Fire
protection upgracles allows for limited combustible contents ancl will include the
following: 1) Maintaining required fire resistive rating for beam protection (60,000).
Spectator seating may increase to between 400 and 500; 2) Install emergency lights,
fire alarm system, exit signs anct doors with panic hardware ($38,300). Enclosing
front does not require doors. 3) Install Class III standpipe system ($20,000); 4)
Removal of the two portable player shacks to outside of building. In addition to
required fire protection, the following would be added: Radiant Heat ($40,000),
spectator netting ($3,000), elevated platform ($10,000), two additional warming
shacks ($17,000), covered roof over shacks ($10,000), security cameras ($10,000 ),
seating ($34,000), drop down metal sheeting in front of seating area ($15,000).
c. Alternative III
$1,932,000.00
Facility is completed (ends remain open) ancl usecl as a true multi-purpose facility.
Construction would include a permanent lobby, 4 team rooms, skate rental and
concession ($1,600,000). For life safety requirements, a sprinkler system ($75,000)
would be required. Occupant load would increase to 1,200 to 1,3000 people.
Alternative III would have a major influence on annual operations and
maintenance costs (projected to increase costs by $32,000). Alternative II would
probably increase costs by $6,500.
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES: A. Altemative A: City General Fund ($60,000).
B. Alternative B' Arctic Winter Games ($200,000), City General Fund
($57,00O).
C. Alternative C: Arctic Winter Games ($200,000), City General Fund and/or
General Obligation Bond ($1,732,000).
PROJECT DESCRIPTION'
The Multi-Use Facility, as presently constructed, severely restricts the possible
use of this facility. The facility should be upgraded in order to atiow other
possible uses such as flea markets, etc. The above-mentioned upgrades will not
only meet life safety requirements, but also permit the building to be used for
other programs. A greater flexibility in the use of the building and better
community service would be achieved.
Condensation has been an issue at the facility. The current plan is to apply a
protective layer over the overhead support beams. If this works as planned, this
will not only limit the condensation drip problems, but will satisfy the required 15-
minute tl~ermat barrier Should Alternative II is pursued.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Soccer is quickly becoming the most popular children's sport. With 1,075
outdoor soccer participants in the Kenai area along with a multitude of coaches,
parents, and spectators, field space is in high demand. Currently, there are not
enough dedicated fields to accommodate this use.
Not only do soccer teams compete for space amongst themselves, but fields are
often shared with other user groups such as Pop Warner Football, Kenai Little
League, Boys and Girls Club, and local schools. Over extended use of fields
often lead to degradation and increased maintenance costs.
The completion of an outdoor sports complex would allow the community to
capitalize on baseball and soccer tournaments while at the same time addressing
quality of life issues. The Boys and Gids Club of the Kenai Peninsula has seen a
19% increase in outdoor soccer participation since 1999, while the Kenai
Peninsula Soccer Club has seen 800% growth. Indoor soccer alone has grown
from 326 participants in 2000 to 644 in 2004 (100% growth). Presently, our Ioml
Kenai Peninsula Soccer Club teams travel throughout the state in order to
compete in tournaments. The acldition of soccer fields would not only allow local
teams to compete at home, but it would draw people into our community.
In addition to soccer fields, support facilities such as I~aseball fields,
campground, BMX course/skate park, and a neighborhood park could be added.
This area in affect could support most all organized outdoor recreation needs
well into the future.
To date, properties within Sect. 36 have been dedicated for a public purpose
(Ordinance No. 2069-2004), cost estimates developed for the addition of four (4)
fields and a parking lot, and LWCF grant money pursued. Due to the large
development costs, projects need to be prioritized and phased for
implementation. Additionally, Borough property (see attachment) could be
requested for expansion needs.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
PROJECT NAME: A WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM AT WELL HOUSES 1, 2, 3, & 4
ESTIMA~D PROJECT COSTS:
$1,600,000
POTENTIAL FUDING SOURCES:
State DEC' 50% = $800,000
Citv: 50% = $800.000
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This pro.iect will be to furnish and install a water treaunem
system at each of our Well Houses No. 1, 2, 3, and 4. This prOject wiil accomplish the removal
of arsenic, color, iron, and manganese. The arsenic level from our wells has been up to 0.042
m~l which is well over the maximum comaminant level, MCL, of 0.01 mg/l. Color has been as
high as 71 color units (MCL=15). Iron has been as high as 0.41 mg/l (MCL=0.30). Manganese
has been as high as 0.076 m~l (MCL=0.05).
Each system may include multimedia filtering tanks, storage tanks, surge~ackwash tanks and
associated pumps. It may also include chemical injection pumps, electrical control panels, air
blower umts, flow metering apparatus and analytical equipment. The SC ADA system will be
updated to incorporate the treatment system.
If this project is not done, the city's municipal water supply will be out of compliance for public

Environmemal Cleanup-Shop Area
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS'
$1.4 million-this dollar fieure is listed in the Citv Financial Revort as a liabilitv. Actual
costs are difficult to estimate.
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES'
General Fund and other City revenues, ADEC loans, and possibly the Federal
Governmem if any clean up is the result of old FAA or military operations. Site
investigations, repons, and field-testing have been completed to date with City funds.
Another $151,000 has been re-directed to the project from another project. Decisions
will be need to made soon regarding funding of the remaining work.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION'
This project was started several years ago with preliminary investigation, reporting,
fieldwork, and sampling. ADEC has recently requested that actual clean-up work begin
in earnest. With a portion of the re-appropriated $151,000, we authorized additional field
sampling and preparation of a clean-up work plan. We have also purchased holding
tanks to install to catch drainage fi'om shop and warm storage floor drains until the City
sewer can be extended to the site. The sewer extension design should take place this
wimer. All of these items are at the request of ADEC. It is not certain if available funds
will cover the sewer construction. Before furore clean up can take place, additional
funding will be needed. It is possible to phase the work to suit funding.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION'
Kenai Community Library shows constant increase in circulation, patronage and
the size of its collections. In 1996 the Kenai Advisory Library Commission, after
surveying library users and Kenai residents at large, requested $2,500,000 for
expansion of library facilities. At that time, the architects Kluge & Associates
prepared a floor plans and schematics for a 10,000 square foot, two story
expansion.
Since then a second, more scaled down plan was developed and presented to
the City Council in 2002. This plan calls for Phase 1 expansion of 4,043 Sq. FT.
on main level and 3,222 Sq. Ft. on upper level aha would include separate
children's area, more stack space and a study room for school-age students. It
would also include a temporary storage space that could be expanded in Phase
2 on the second floor. In the future the Library could add another addition on the
remaining lot and build a new parking lot.
Phase 1 would cost approximately $1,400,000 and the newly created space
would be furnished but the Friends of the Library. The proposed design takes into
account federal ADA standards and Privacy of Information Act (spacing of
computer terminals.)

and often dirty and unsanitary. Dust in the area is a problem since dust retardants
cannot be used due to the closeness to the water. Users spend time in staging
areas getting their boats ready to load and unload onto their trailers and in parking.

At times, the line of vehicles with boats or trailers extends down Boat Launch Road
almost to Bridge Access Road. This presents many proDtems of access on this
narrow road. Users often have to exit the facility and ddve down Bridge Access
Road to find a place to turn around and then i~acK to Boat Launct~ Road to get in line
to retrieve their boats. A new one-way exit from the facility would allow users with
their boats to exit directly or allow vehicles with a trailer to make a loop to the line on
Boat Launch Road to retdeve their boats. Another alternative would be to widen the
existing road and reroute a return.
Dip net fishing on the Kenai River/Cook Inlet beaches is becoming more DoDular.
The restroom on South Spruce and Kenai Avenue needs to Oe replaced and two
additional restrooms need to be added for this fishery.
All three parts of this project are very badly needed, and they are a direct result of
the heavy use of dip net fishermen. Sinco the clip net fishery is 9ovemt~ or
regulated in this area by the State of Alaska, the City of Kenai is requesting mostly
state funds to I~eip retieve some of the costs caused by the impact of tills fishory.

REQUEST FOR STATE GRANT
2005-2006 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
PROJECT: interoperable Emergency Communication System in the City of Kenai
Emergency Operations Center (KEOC)
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS: Based on recent estimates, the balance needed to complete
this project is $605,153. The City has completed an estimated $475,000 in communications
infrastructure, all of which function as components to the requested KEOC system. Annual M &
O costs are estimated to be $20,000 to $40,000 per year including maintenance contracts and
ALMR subscriber fees.
STATE ASSISTANCE REQUESTED: 100%
PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION:
Obtain ancl install an integrated communications system in the KEOC, to include base stations
and computer aided dispatch (CAD). The goat is to promote interoperability with other
jurisdictions, inclucling AST ancl Forestry, the Kenai Peninsula Borough OEM, mutual aid
departments, ancl to enaDle other communities to take aclvantage of the regional interconnectivity
this project provicles, inclucling clear communications ancl interoperability of mobile, portable ancl
fixecl site communications for public safety and during mutual aid responses, mass casualty
incidents, disaster response, and search and rescue operations. A CAD system will link Public
Safety Answering Points (PSAPS)in Kenai, Soldotna, Seward and Homer with a common
records and resource management system.
Funding this request will bridge the gap between available local funds and other funds being
sought. The City has worked diligently to develop grants to upgrade PSAPs in Kenai and other
Peninsula communities to insure equipment compatibility. This request is not intended to fund
other communities, but to establish connectivity through our EOC to enable them to become truly
interoperable in their PSAPs. All PSAPs are, or are in the process of becoming, Project 25
(federally required narrow band) capable. P25 mobiles, portable radios and repeaters are already
in place. This funding will connect the KEOC to the state-wide radio infrastructure known as the
Alaska Land Mobile Radio (ALMR) system, a joint project of the U.S. Department of Defense and
the State of Alaska. ALMR will meet Federal narrow band requirements and offer advanced
abilities to local agencies able to connect (high capacity & security, enhanced interoperability,
reliability, and long distance communications). Connectivity supports mobile data
communications and reliable high-speed data circuits to regional computer networks. ALMR and
Borough-wide CAD system availability will meet the City's radio and data communications needs.
The State encourages municipal participation in planning and implementing the system.
This project eliminates communications deficiencies and creates interoperability for a broad base
of City emergency responders and others regionally. It improves safety and efficiency of
emergency response, creating more efficient response ability locally and regionally through new
connectivity. Emergencies will be managed effectively and safely, and accountability and rescue
of emergency personnel on interior fire attack crews when they need aid will improve.
Our community is centrally located to give and receive mutual aid to other areas. All local
agencies use narrow-band radios. All responders including mutual aid departments will benef'~.
Local requirements that will be addressed include:
· Coverage of all required areas;
· Adequate number of talk groups for all local agencies;
· Paging of emergency personnel;
· Data communications links for interconnecting CAD systems;
· Radio support for future mobile data and automatic vehicle location systems.
WHY PROJECt CANNOT BE SOLEY FUNDED THROUGH LOCAL FUNDS:
With obsolete communications equipment in our PSAP (inctuaing some tube type equipment), yet
providing primary answering for an E-911 system our community facea a choice last year of what
could be done with available local funds: either upgrade PSAP eauipment with available funas, or
complete the KEOC to take advantage of the ALMR system in the future.
Our community wisely chose to upgrade the PSAP due to the immediacy of needs it addressed
for fire, police, public works, municipal airport, and critical facility alarm monitoring and animal
control and mutual aid. This provided a communications center that will serve well for decades
and is designed to connect to this proposed project, but left no funds for EOC interol3erable
communications needs. Funding this project will fill the gap left by having to make this difficult
choice.
ADDITIONAL RELEVANT !NFORMATION TO CONSIDER:
This project will bdng our emergency communications system into compliance with narrow 13and,
interoperable communications criteria and enhance cooperative projects already being
undertaken regionally by other cities within the Borough to improve emergency communications
and response. Kenai has the key equipment and facilities in place to bring these types of
communications into the area several years ahead of what would otherwise be expected, with the
added benefit of providing connectivity to other communities tl~at would otherwise not be able to
access suct3 technology.
This project reduces costs across the board for all involved due to substantial local foresight in
establishing a City faqility with ample space and connectivity specifically intended for use as an
EOC (designed cooperatively with input from ADES, the Kenai Peninsula Borough OEM and
FEMA). Existing technology includes fiber optic uplink ability, seismic protection, multi-fuel
emergency generators, training facilities, and an 8,000 square foot EOC with space for
communications, Incident Command and twelve (12) agency cubicles. The only materials
needed to become functional are those applied for in this project. This project will open a new
mission area for the City and for the region by providing the only true EOC communications
center in the area.
The KEOC facility was built with federal funds in 1998 with the support of Federal, Borough and
State disaster management agencies. It is designed to FEMA EOC specifications but has not
been equipped with communications equipment. It has fiber-optic trunking as an integral part of
its wiring that will hub high bandwidth from the center to form a WAN in support of the multi-
jurisdictional CAD framework. The scalable CAD system will support multiple agencies: law
enforcement, fire, and EMS. The system also supports multiple agencies of each discipline (e.g.,
Alaska State Troopers, State Forestry, mutual aid departments, state and federal disaster
response agencies).
The City PSAP and others lack significant automated support for the primary tasks of receiving
emergency information from E911 and other calls for service; determining the nature and location
of emergencies; selecting appropriate response; directing units to locations; monitoring
emergencies; and compiling legal records of activity related to an emergency. No PSAP has
reliable means of monitoring emergency activity within the Borough, to back up or share
workloads of other PSAPs in emergencies, or to monitor availability and status of resources
outside their jurisdiction.
With the funding requested for this project, the City will purchase the necessary communications
and computer equipment to address these issues. The system envisioned will allow servers and
workstations at other PSAPs to independently support a center, and link all servers through
ALMR or other data circuits for data sharing, mutual activity monitoring, and backup.

City of Kenai
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The topography of large areas within the City of Kenai is
rather flat which has caused many drainage problems. Instead.of constructing miles of
expensive storm drains and dealing with freezing lines and possible lift station problems,
the city built many infiltration basins. The surface water collects at these infiltration
basins and dissipates into the ground. Unfortunately, during certain times of the year
these infiltration basins will not take all of the water. This happens when the ground is
frozen around the basins and we have heavy rains. It also happens when the ground
water table is high and therefore cannot except any more water. We then have flooding is
the low spots near the basins.
This project is to replace infiltration basins with underground storm drains and/or
improve the infiltration basins, if possible. The streets that we have had problems with
.include Lake Street, Windward Drive, Equinox Way, Inlet Woods Drive, Channel Way,
Woodside Avenue, Toyon Way, Pine Avenue, and others.

Since the inception of our NTS program our meal program has continually grown.
In the last 4 years our program has grown at an 18% increase in meals served. In
1982 the dining room of 1,760 square feet and the kitchen of 660 square feet was
built. Then in 1990, an additional 2,000 square feet was added to the dining room
and the kitchen remained the same. We have outgrown our kitchen in relation to
the number of meals we serve today. The senior population is the fastest growing
population in the state of Alaska with the Kenai Peninsula being no exception.
There are concerns of additional demands coming in the future. As the senior
population increases in age, preparing and delivering more home meals is
anticipated.
Areas of concern regarding the kitchen as it is today are as follows:
1. Storage
a. Inadequate freezer and refrigeration space
2. Inadequate and inefficiently located storage of dry goods, cleaning
supplies and dishes for service.
a. Addition of a "bus station that would allow for an efficient and
sanitary method of post service dish handling.
3. Inadequate counter/prep space.
4. The kitchen range exhaust hood has very iow head clearance that
currently is a liabiliW issue needing immediate attention.
5. Inadequate power sources in and around center prep island.
6. Inefficient equipment layout and underused available space.
7. Lack of appropriate space for food deliver', laund~' needs, and storage
of service items (dishes etc...).
Contracting to design and build a structural addition that would address the storage
and food preparation needs of the faciliW would undoubtedly' enhance the safeW,
productivity and cost effectiveness of the kitchen while simply creating a more
efficient work space. With a new larger walk in freezer and cooler ~ve sviil be able to
purchase food in bulk for a savings, have an area designated for frozen home meals,
and more workable space for kitchen staff and volunteers. This will not only
enhance our serviceability, for our program but also provide a more user-friendly
and efficient facilitv to our community.
If our funding is awarded to finance this project we would move ahead as quickly as
possible. We have received a $40,00 legislative grant that has been earmarked for
our kitchen project. We have a pledged amount of $10,000 and have applied to
Rasmuson Foundation and inquired into a grant from the Mental Health Trust as
well as other areas of funding.
Once our project is complete we hope our kitchen will sustain us through many
vears of continued service to our seniors and the communitv. 8% of the total Kenai
Peninsula population is "Baby-boomers". A majority, of them haven't retired yet
and many more retirees are moving to the Kenai Peninsula from other areas of the
United States. With that in mind, we will continue to see the accelerated increase of
a senior population living longer and needing the services which only a properly
managed and equipped support system can render. Theses necessa~ improvements
to our Center will allow us to better serve our existing members and leave us better
prepared for the even larger population of deserving seniors in the future.

PROJECT NAME: Municipal Park Improvement
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS' $280,000 (includes 12% State Admin. Costs).
Estimated annual operations and maintenance costs upon completion are estimated at
$2,000. This would primarily include routine operational costs such as mowing,
irrigation, facility cleaning, trail grooming and non-routine maintenance expenses.
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES: Land and Water Conservation Fund
($140,000) and City General Fund ($140,000).
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
A portion of Kenai Municipal Park formally served as a tent campground. Since
another use has been designated, funds are needed to upgrade property to
match its proposed use.
Kenai Municipal Park covers approximately 43 acres and is one of the oldest
parks in the City's park system. Original development dates back to the early
1970's. Although portions of the park have been upgraded throughout the years,
the interior portion of the property once containing a tent campground has not.
Currently, this area is void of any site amenities, and consequently, underused.
Besides being one of the oldest parks in Kenai, it is also one of the more heavily
used parks and most visible to the public. This is particularly true during the
personal use fishery during the month of July due to its close proximity to the
mouth of the Kenai River. Additionally, this park is adjacent to one of the largest
residential areas in Kenai and in close proximity to Sears Elementary, making it a
very convenient and accessible park.
The goal of the park improvement project is to enhance outdoor recreational
opportunities and protect significant natural and cultural resources. The plan
includes one large pavilion, kiosk/signs (including interpretive signs); 20 picnic
sites (to include tables and grills), 3,600 L.F. of trail upgrades, benches and trash
receptacles, general landscaping, and a vehicle parking lot with approximately 20
spaces.
Although once heavily forested with spruce trees, most have been removed due
to spruce bark beetle infestation. Other than the remaining spruce trees, a
healthy population of aspen, birch, and cottonwood trees exist, along with native
Alaska flora unique to this particular area. In addition to tree removal and
significant pruning of remaining spruce trees, the beach access trail was recently
upgraded, parking lot paved, trail added, and three (3) group picnic areas
installed near the restmoms.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: There are many areas around the city that use a large
quanuty of city potable (drinking) water for non-dnnking water purposes. The city is
about to start treating our municipal water system by removing arsenic, manganese, and
iron from our water at three of our wells. The water treatment plants will be expensive to
operate and maintain. We should not be using our expensive treated water for landscape
watering or equipment cooling.
This project would be to drill six individual on-site water wells to provide non-potable
water to each facility. The Kenai Multi-Purpose Facility uses mum¢ipal water tbr
cooling equipment to freeze the water for the ice fink when on-site water could be used.
The City Cemetery. needs a watering system and the mum¢ipal water system is not
available at this site. The Kenai Little League.., Softball, and So~/Football fields and
Municipal Park could all be watered fi'om an on-site well.
These on-site water wells could save the city money in the long run since the water would
not have to be treated nor pumped through miles of line before it is used. The General

Engineering and design is estimated at $10,000. Estimated annual operations and
maintenance costs upon completion are estimated at $600.00.
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES: City General Fund, smaii grants.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION'
Significant resources are expended (primarily labor) each summer in order to
water this 2-acre park comprising of turf areas, flowerbeds, trees and shrubs.
Installing an underground sprinkler system would save time, money, and effort.
Currently, there is only one water outlet stationed at the center of the park in
which to pull from. ,As new plantings am added, it is becoming mom difficult to
sufficiently water all areas in addition to providing evenly measured amounts of
water. Current watering practices is labor intensive and inefficient from a water
conservation standpoint.
The project is relatively simple, involving the installation of a central control
panel, trenching and installation of plastic pipes, sprinkler heads, and wiring. The
number of sprinkler heads, type, and location are all engineered prior to
installation. Yeady maintenance costs involve m-adjusting the sprinkler heads,
replacing heads as necessary, general troubleshooting, and winterizing the
system.
The advantages of this type of system include: 1. Allows more time dedicated toward other tasks since you don't have labor
involved in moving hoses, setting and monitoring sprinklers.
2. Lower water usage (more efficient).
3. Lawn and plantings receive evenly measured amounts of water.
4. Protects landscape investment.

PROJECT:
Establish a non-potable water well with a dry hydrant fill site in VIP
Subdivision.
ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS:
$25,000
POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES: legislative or city appropriation
PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION:
Presently, the closest fire department fill site is at the corner of Bridge Access Road and
the Kenai Spur Road, about 5 miles from VIP, limiting adequate fire flows in the VIP area
due to travel time.
Placing a fill site in the VIP area would substantially cut down on our travel time, and
likely reduce the insurance rating for residents in that area from an ISO 8 (ISO 10 being
highest possible) to a probable ISO 3.
ISO allows for a 35 MPH travel speed for fire tankers. This equates to a 17 minute
round trip for a tanker from the intersection of K-Beach and VIP Drive to the site at the
corner of Bridge Access and KSR. This does not include fill or dump time. Add an
estimated 2 minutes for fill time and 1.5 minutes for dump time.
Placing a fill site within the VIP subdivision near Lora Street would create a maximum 2
mile round trip with a turn around time of 3 minutes 40 seconds, and would provide a
sustainable 400 Gallons Per Minute (GPM) with a single fire tanker. This is nearly 3
times the total sustainable GPM possible using the Bridge Access/KSR fill site.
A viable system would include a drafting (dry) hydrant with a buried 10,000 gallon tank,
or a well and pump able to draft or fill tankers at 1500 GPM.
We have developed an agreement for use of the new hydrant system within the Kenai
Landing property to provide fire protection them, Inlet Salmon fish processing plant, and
for the natural gas site in the same area. Kenai Landing's system is capable of
supplying 750GPM from its three wells and on-site fire pumps, demonstrating the water

RE' Capital Projects
It's once again time to get our ducks in a row and develop our capital projects list. We don't
have much time, since I'll need your information (at least in rough draft form)by Friday,
December 3~a.
We are going to approach the capital projects list a little differently this year, since I am in the
process of working with Jack LaShot to develop a more formalized Capital Improvements Plan
(CIP). We will need some basic information, presented in the same format, for all general,
water/wastewater, airport, and STIP projects.
General capital projects include those listed in the attached Resolution No. 2004-02, all of which
will be carded over into the new list. A draft list of new project additions this year will include
the following' new Shop, Library ExPansion, multi-purpose facility improvements
(condensation and fire code compliance plus scenarios for future development); Emergency
Operations Center equipment and furnishings); Section 36 Sports Complex; Local Improvement
District projects (McCollum, Aliak, VIP); water wells (cemetery, parks); drainage upgrades; dip
net fishery improvements; city parking lot upgrades, city hall HVAC, and street light additions.
Please submit a narrative description (no more than two pages) for each of the projects
referenced above as applicable to your department, as well as individual narratives for each
applicable water/wastewater, airport, and Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan (STIP)
project to be included in our new plan. The narrative format for this year is attached (it will
undergo future revision as our new plan develops). I understand you may not have engineering
estimates, drawings, etc. for some of the projects; this information can be worked on a little bit
each year. The narrative should include the status of each project, i.e., what has been done, what
hasn't, what's needed next to move the project along and any relevant attachments as descriptive
information. Every capital project can usually be broken down into sub-parts and phases.
Please feel free to call or email if you have any questions, comments, etc. Thank you very much.

PROJECT NAME' KENAI COASTAL TRAIL CONSTRUCTION
TOTAL PROJECT COST: $10,000,000
STATE ASSISTANCE REQUESTED' 100%
PROJECT DESCRIPTION & JUSTIFICATION'
The Kenai Coastal Trail is a proposed multi-purpose trail that will run for approximately
one mile along the base of the Kenai bluffs The trail will begin at the Kenai Dunes
Park, at the mouth of the Kenai River, and progress up the riverbank to a new trailhead
and parking area located just off Bridge Access Road.
The trail will provide a scenic walkway within the City of Kenai with easy, safe beach
access down the bluff at several locations. A scenic estuary area will be crossed with a
bridge, and periodic ramps and rest areas along the trail will provide handicapped
accessibility and opportunities for wildlife viewing. In addition to its recreational
benefits, the trail will provide needed relief to the City from ongoing erosion of the bluff
and associated property losses.
Through the years, the City of Kenai has commissioned many studies and reports for
the area of the lower Kenai River. These-studies include Kenai River sedimentation,
dredging, bluff erosion, boat harbor, and others.
In 1998, the City hired Peratrovich, Nottingham, & Drage, inc. (PN&D) to perform a
Reconnaissance Level Study for a Kenai CoastaI Trail. In 1999, PN&D completed the
next phase for the City and produced the "Kenai Coastal Trail and Erosion Control
Project Design Concept Report." This report included a schematic design, right-of-way
property impacts, preliminary environmental considerations, and a rough project cost
estimate. PN&D just .completed their third contract with the City, which consisted of
working on the environmental and permitting requirements of this project.
Approximately $120,000 of City funds has been spent on PN&D recent work.
The US Corps of Engineers was allocated $500,000 to complete the planning,
engineering, and environmental studies needed to obtain the necessary permits to start
construction of this project. The Corps'study is schedule to be completed in Ju~,,
,),, 2004,
This State Grant Capital Improvement Request is for the next phase which is the actual
construction. '

REQUEST FOR STATE GRANT
2004-2005 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
PROJECT NAME' ROADS
PROJECT COST: $3,000,000
STATE ASSISTANCE REQUESTED' 100%
PROJECT DESCRIPTION'
About 50 percent of the City of Kenai 65 miles of roads are not paved.
paved roads were paved 20 or 30 years ago and are in bad shape.
Some of the
This project is for ~ and upgrading many gravel roads such as Barabara Drive,
Ames Road, Angler Drive, and others that interSect with Beaver Loop Road and the
Kenai Spur Highway.
This project would also include reconstructing and repavin~ existing badly damaged
paved roads such as Wildwood Drive, the roads in Mommsen Subdivision, Silver
Salmon Drive, King Salmon Drive, and others.
It would also include chip and seal reconditioning of roads such as in Woodland
Subdivision, Redoubt Subdivision, Inlet View Subdivision, Central Heights Subdivision
VIP Subdivision, Old Town, and other subdivisions. '

REQUEST FOR STATE GRANT
2004-2005 CAPITAL MPROVEMENT PROJECT
NAME' STATE OF ALASKA DIP NET FISHERY PROJECTS
TOTAL PROJECT COST: $650,000
STATE ASSISTANCE REQUESTED' 100%
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: (See Drawing)
a,
Dock Area Paving
$350,000
This part of the project is to rebuild the Boat Launch Road and a portion of the
Boating Facility parking lot, which is presently gravel. The project includes
asphalt paving, parking striping, and signage.
c. New or Upgrade of Dock Access Road $300,000
This part of the project is to add a new road as an exit access to the boating
facility or to widen and upgrade the existing road.
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION.
Personal dip net fishermen from all over the state use the Boat Launch Road,
Parking Lot, and Launch Ramps. Over 15,000 dip net permits for households are
issued each year, and over 100,000 fish are caught in this Kenai River fishery. The
City Boat Facility handles most of this fishery. This project will improve the Boating
Facility operation and make it a lot cleaner.
This project will greatly enhance the health and quality of life of its users. At the
present time, users of the Boating Facility use staging areas that are gravel surfaced
and often dirty and unsanitary. Dust in the area is a problem since dust retardants
cannot be used due to the closeness to the water. Users spend time in staging
areas getting their boats ready to load and unload onto their trailers and in parking.
This project would definitely enhance recreational opportunities for dip net
fishermen, informational signs would also enhance the understanding of the area.
At times, the line of vehicles with boats or trailers extends down Boat Launch Road'
almost to Bridge Access Road. This presents many problems of access on this
narrow road. Users often have to exit the facility and drive down Bridge Access
Road to find a place to turn around and then back to Boat Launch Road to get in line
to retrieve their boats. A new one-way exit from the facility would allow users with
Dip Net Fishery Projects
Page 2
their boats to exit directly or allow vehicles with a trailer to make a loop to the line on
Boat Launch Road to retrieve their boats. Another alternative would be to widen the
existing road and reroute a return.
Both parts of this project are very badly needed, and they are a direct result of the
'heavy use of dip net fishermen. Since the dip net fishery is governed or regulated in
this area by the State of Alaska, the City of Kenai is requesting funds to help relieve
some of the costs caused by the impact of this fishery. That is also why this project
is entitled "State of Alaska Dip Net Fishery Projects."

EXPLANATION OF ADDED ,SMALL C .A_.PITAL .,PROJECTS
$35.000
The majority of these funds ($25,000)would be used ~ t-'~'--ee performance
of communications equipment to reduce or eliminate the ongoing interference
issues experienced by dispatchers. It has been determined by ProComm that a
lack of separation between radio frequencies and aging combiner equipment,
antennas, and coaxial cable (all having exceeded their useful life) necessitates
an engineering solution to resolve. The remaining funds would be used to
purchase 18 replacement public safety gear lockers ($5,000) and construct a
safe walkway, including steps, from the back parking lot of the Public Safety
Building to City Hall ($5,000).
The Municipal Park improvement plan ($250,000)includes one large pavilion,
kiosk/signs; 6 handicap accessible picnic tables, 14 standard picnic tables;
benches and trash receptacles; 6 accessible BBQ pits and 14 standard pits;
3,600 linear feet of trail upgrade; 31,350 sq. ft. picnic areas; 20 car parking lot;
gates; landscaping; engineering. (b) The Leif Hansen Park improvement plan
($40,000) includes the engineering, design, and installation of an underground
sprinkler system. (c) The Cunningham Park plan ($25,00.0)includes both new
and replacement benches and trash receptacles. (d) Skateboard park
improvements ($82,800)includes ramp equipment and park signage.
Fire Protection VIP Subdivision 20.000
This project would provide a dependable water supply for fire protection in the
VIP Subdivision, which is located across the Kenai River estuary over the Bridge
Access road. The VIP subdivision is not connected to city water and, therefore,
fire protection is now provided by shuttling water from hydrants located on the
opposite side of the Bridge. Providing a reliable non-potable water supply would
include a well and possibly a fire pump and a hydrant.
This study would research and analyze the cost and feasibility of obtaining and
utilizing the existing water system at the vacant Wards Cove cannery. There are
three wells at the Wards Cove site, producing in excess of 750 gPm, and a
60,000 gallon cistern. The study would examine water potability, the value of the
water system, the creation of a hydrant system for the VIP subdivision, and how
the City might establish a metering system for domestic and cannery use.
Public Facilities Wiring Upgrades $50,000
l he "quality of communications cabiin.g in se,,~Te~r~'~-u~li~ facilitieS' is very pOO-~ and
does not meet computer networking and data transfer requirements and
standards; the current standard is Cat 5e and older public buildings were not
constructed at that standard.
Project 9'
ed
to perform environmental clean-u.p on the property which was contaminated due
to its use many years ago as a road oil storage pit; there are buried drums on the
property. The project will require the removal of soil and other items with
associated treatment and/or disposal. A sewer main extension into the yard
area will also be needed, with connections to floor drains and restrooms, as well
as the proper abandonment of old leach pits. Further soil and groundwater
testing and monitored will also be required. This project could easily be
completed into three separate phases at approximately $100,00 for each phase.
