Ord. 2107-2005 Senior Center Kitchen Project
The construction bid on the senior center kitchen project came in
substantially higher than expected at $361,000. The total project cost is
$416,285. The estimate was $281,704.
Funding sources for the project are:
Rasmuson Grant $140,892
State Grant $ 40,000
Senior Connection $ 10,000
Mental Health Trust $ 25,000
Total $215,892
We need an additional $200,393 to complete the project.
Originally we expected to fund the project from the above grants along with
$65,812 from the Senior Citizen Fund fund balance. The Senior Citizen
Fund is expected to have about $173,000 in fund balance at June 30, 2005,
so there is not enough money in the fund to do the project.
We have at least two options:
1. Delay the project and re-bid it later. This would require requesting
extensions from the Rasmuson Foundation and the Mental Health Trust
because their grants expire by the end of the calendar year. This would be a
good option if we think the project will cost less later, and if the extensions
are granted. Construction costs are very high fight now, but we do not know
when, or if, they will moderate. If the costs are not going to change and
assuming we _need the project, this may not be the best option.
2. Fund the project from other sources so that it can be done on schedule.
The Senior Citizen Fund could comfortably fund $100,393 of the project
leaving $100,000 to be funded from other sources. The City has been
notified that we have a grant from the State for $290,000 tbr any public
improvement. This project is eligible for funding from this grant.
Recommendation:
Our recommendation is to review the project with the contractor to
determine if there are any items that can be modified to achieve cost savings
and do the project now. The attached memo from the Senior Center Project
Director outlines the need for the project.
Ordinance 2107-2005 would need to be amended to reflect the increased
amounts. A substitute ordinance is included. Although we do not have a
signed grant agreement from the State, we do have confirmation that this
project is eligible for funding from the above mentioned grant, so the
substitute ordinance appropriates the grant revenue.
If Council does not want to use grant funds for this project the only other
funding option that ! am aware of is the General Fund.

REFERENCE:
Senior Center Kitchen Renovation Project
The Kenai Borough population as of July 2003 was said to be 51,220. Seniors 55 and
over made up 9,565 or 18.7% increase from the 2000 census of 7,737. Kenai Senior
Services service area is designated by our Peninsula Borough funding. Our Service area
includes the City' of Kenai, Salamatof, Kalifomsky Beach, Chohoe, Kasilof, and Clam
Gulch. Our service area is 26% of the total population aged 60 and above on the
Peninsula.
Our challenge today and in the years to come is how do we meet our growing population
within budget restraints but also within the space we currently occupy; specifically our
kitchen space.
Our meal program has been existence since 1972 when the program was housed in Fort
Kenay in the center of"Old Town" Kenai. In 1982, the State of Alaska awarded to the
City of Kenai a grant to provide congregate and home delivered meals. During 1983, the
State of Alaska awarded a grant to the City of Kenai to build the present day Kenai Senior
Center. Since receiving the grant from the state Office on Aging to support services to
the target age group of 60 and older, the City has continued to expand its program and
services. Our congregate meals are served five days a week including most holidays. Our
home meals are delivered five days a week with two frozen meals being delivered for the
weekends, and two meals, if necessary to our Choice Waiver clients. On Tuesday and
Thursday a driver delivers meals to the Kasilof area. The Kasilof seniors received a hot

meal for the day and fi'ozen meals to compensate for:the days when we do
'Since the inception of our N'I S program our meals program has continually grown.
We have grown in number of people served but our kitchen has not changed. In 1982 the
dimng room of 1,760 square leet and the kitchen of 660 square feet was built. Then in
1990, an additional 2,000 squ n'e 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 daily as well as the number of frozen meals prepared. The senior population is the
fastest growing population in )ur state with Kenai Peninsula being no exception. These
are concerns of additional den rands as seniors age in place and the "Baby Boomers" reach
their semor years. As the senior population increases in age, preparing and delivenng
more meals is anticioated. The followine statistics have been ~,athered:

Note' Home meals are deliv ~red hot or frozen. However, the frozen meals are shown
above since these meals are prepared hot but an added step of sealing and freezing takes
place with space needed in the freezer.
Areas of concern regarding the kitchen as it is today are as follows: 1. Storage
a. Inadequate free :er and refrigeration space
2. Inadequate and ineffic ently 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 serv: ce dish handling.
3. Inadequate counter/prel~ space for current demand of meals being served.
4. Inadequate power soun es in and around center prep island.
5. The kitchen range exh~.ust hood has a very Iow head clearance that currently is a
liability issue needing itnmediate attention.
6. Inefficient equipment l~.yout and inefficient working space.
7. Lack of appropriate sp~ce for food delivery, laundry needs, and storage of service
items.
With a new larger walk in free~r and cooler we will be able to purchase food in bulk for
a savings, have an area design;tted 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 facility to our community..
Once our project is complete ~'e hope our kitchen will sustain us through many years of
continued service to our senior's and our community. 8% of the total Kenai Peninsula
population is "baby-boomers." A majority of them have not retired yet and many more
beyond. With that in mind, w,; will continue to see the accelerated increase of a senior
population living longer and n:eding the services which only a properly managed and
equipped support system can n;nder. These necessary improvements to our Center will
allow us to better serve our ex: sting members and leave us better prepared for the even
larger population of deserving s miors in our furore.

DATE' July 27, 2005
SUBJECT' Kenai Senior Center Kitchen Addition/Renovation
As you know, the referenced project construction bids came in considerably higher than
our estimate used to secure grant funds. In an effort to help everyone better
understand the extent of the project, I would like to include this memorandum and the
attached plan sheets in the packet for the August 3, 2005, City Council meeting.
The first plan sheet is the demolition plan showing the existing kitchen layout with items
to be removed or changed. The second sheet is the renovation plan showing the new
kitchen configuration with new walls shaded. Changes are briefly discussed as follows:
The existing walk-in freezer will be removed and the area converted to a dish
receiving/washing center separate from food preparation areas. Currently,
prepared food items leave the kitchen over the same counter used dishes return
over, causing possible sanitation problems. Existing dishwashing equipment
will be relocated to the new area.
Existing dry storage will be relocated to the new pantry/storage area'of the new
addition, and a new walk-in cooler will be installed where the dry storage was.
An existing compressor unit serving the existing cooler will be removed resulting
in additional storage area.
A new walk-in freezer using an external-mounted compressor will be added
within the addition. This will approximately double the available freezer space.
A new bake counter, new storage cabinets, a new mop closet, a new pantry,
along with an existing icemaker will be located in the addition adjacent to the
freezer.
Memo to Charles M. Kopp, Acting City Manager
Page 2
July 28, 2005
The existing food preparation area will have a new salad prep counter and sink,
a new stainless food serving counter in front, and a relocated table.
The plans include a new refrigerator with remote compressor to reduce heat
retention in the kitchen. We may consider using the existing refrigerator to
reduce costs.
An exterior improvement would expand paving and improve underlying soils in
the area of the existing dumpster. This also is an item that can be looked at for
cost savings.
The construction estimate was prepared in February 2004, and was used to formulate
an overall budget for grant requests. Eighteen months have elapsed since the estimate
was prepared, in a time of higher than normal construction cost escalation. In talking
with contractors, architects, and engineers familiar with building construction, it is
obvious that all the construction trades are booming. Another factor that probably adds
to the higher bids is the number of available contractors in this area capable of bidding a
public contract that can fit a project of this size into their current schedule. Some
contractors were simply too busy to look at it.
The City Council will decide the merits of the project based upon current and projected
community needs and usage of the Senior Center. Rachael Craig, Director of Senior
Center, has communicated these needs very well in the Rasmuson Foundation grant
application. The Finance Director, Larry Semmens, has outlined funding options in his
memorandum to Council dated July 13, 2005. We concur with the recommendation to
go forth with the project now if council chooses to do the project. The way things are
going with the construction industry at this time, it would be difficult to recommend re-
bidding the project at a later date with any confidence of receiving lower bids.
Let me know if you have questions or need additional information. Kelly Keating of
Blazy Construction will be at the meeting for questions. Bill Kluge has a previously
scheduled trip out of state and will not be able to attend. I have discussed the project
with him, and he also recommends proceeding as planned if Council endorses the
project.

for Expansion & Renovation of Kitchen

RECE .'ED
; AUG-3 'u ;
C TY C I
Dear Ms. Craig,
Isabelle's Fine Catering would like to encourage the Rasm~n Foundation to fund a grant for the
expansion & renovation of the kitchen at the Kenai Senior Citizens C~nter..
As a caterer, that rents this facility through out the year, there is a define neo~i for renovation and
expansion. Here axe a few examples of problems that we encounter:
1. No refrigeration- there is only one 3 door cooler for the whole kitchen
chis is usuaUy full of the C. cntcr's food. There is not enough rcfrigcraQon or freezer
space.
2. Exhaust Hood - this ceiling hood is a safe_tv issue. It hangs low and if you arc over
5' 10', you can catch thc comer and cut your head.
3. Dish Washing Area- is located fight behind thc main door going into the ~
area. Every time the door swings open the person or persons, washing dishes could
be hit. In addition, there is no room for dirty d/shes to be stacked on a counter or
even on a cart. The close proximity of the dirty and cleans d/shes as well as the
possibility of the door swinging into someone and having an acc/dent create potemml
safety issues.
4. The ventilation and electrical needs to be updated in the kitchen and dinn/ng area.
Tills is one of the ~ facilities used by various groups and ind/viduals in our mca plus the daily use by
the Kenai Senior Citizens. Our community has a shortage of facilities that can acco~~te large group
functions rcquix~g a kitchen.
Our area is growing and thc senior population is incrcasiag which redefines the importance of this request.
Please con~idcr their request for grant funding for the renovation and c~ion of this facility.
Sincerely
l~bell¢ Harbaugh

Dear Rachael'
CHARLO ~ ~ o'S RESTAURANT
115 S. WZLLOW ST., SUI'TE 102
KENA.I:, AK 99611
Due to a catering event, I will not be able to attend the Council meeting on Wednesday,
August 3"". I would like to show my support of the senior center kitchen renovation
project.
As you know individuals who rent your facility through out the year hire me. ]: have
worked in the kitchen on weddings, receptions, and fundraisers. I believe there is a
need for expansion.
1. Refrigeration is limited. There is only one cooler in the kitchen ~hat renters
share with the senior center. The renters use the cooler, as "space that is
available". Thus, there is not enough refrigeration or freezer space.
2. The ventilation and electrical needs to be updated. There are not enough
electrical outlets for kitchen equipment without using extension cords.
3. The exhaust hood hangs too Iow. Numerous employees have hit their heads
on the bottom edge and corners of the hood. This is a safety/liability issue.
One employee was knocked unconscious and ! feared ! would need to take
him to the hospital. This issue needs to be addressed.
4. While preparing and serving food courses, there is no room for dirty dishes to
be stacked on the counter let alone a cart. This is a sanitation/health issue
with the close proximity of dirty to the clean dishes.
5. Because the kitchen door needs to be closed, it can be a concern when
washing dishes. The dish person at the-dishwasher is washing dishes, but
when the server opens the door, the door swings open to the person
washing dishes and could be hit, as well as servers coming and going using
the kitchen door. It would be more efficient to have two doors.
As stated earlier, we use the senior center kitchen often. Our community has a
shortage of facilities that can accommodate a large group of 200 that require a large
kitchen space. To me, it is vital to support this project for our seniors and their meal
program as well as community members that use it.

Lot 1, Block 1, Thompson Park, Addition No. 1
The above referenced parcel was foreclosed upon for special assessments for water and sewer
improvements in Thompson Park Subdivision and for unpaid property taxes to the Borough.
In order to protect the city's interest (unpaid assessments in excess of $3,000), Ordinance No.
2086-2005 declared the property needed for a public purpose. The city paid the taxes owed
thereby stopping the borough from proceeding in the foreclosure process. The city has now
received the property through a tax tbreclosure deed.
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."
The Administration and the Planning and Zoning Commission Please recommend the
property be sold in a future city foreclosure sale. The former property owner will be notified
of the public heating on the ordinance in accordance with KMC 22.05.090(c).

ITEM B:
,
SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENTS
Todd Eberhardt, Copper River Seafoods -- Dock Fuel
Eberhardt gave a brief history of his company noting it is owned by three Alaska
fisherman who believed commercial, sport, and dip net fisheries can co-exist; they
assist the community through local hires, paying a higher wages to ensure money
comes back into the community; and, paying a higher dock price and leasing some of
the city buoys.
Because they want to grow their fleet, he suggested his company be able to purchase
4,000 gallons of fuel from the city at the city's price. Because of the bulk purchase at
the city's bulk fuel price, his company would then pass the bulk fuel price on to their
fleet. To implement the process, Copper River Seafoods would provide a credit card to
the city's dock foreman who would track the sales to their fleet; their fleet is already
tracked due to the lease requirements; the city's fuel pumps are metered and the fuel
prices are posted.
Council consensus was for Eberhardt to discuss the matter further with Acting City
Manager Kopp and fred a workable solution.
ITEM C:
UNSCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENTS (3 minutes)
Tim Dillon, General Manager, Arctic Winter Games -- North Tinker, Kenai
Dillon offered an update to events taking place with preparations for the Arctic Winter

They have rented storage space at the Jahrig Warehouse.

Discussion -- Dock Boat Exit Road/Land Trade and Sale with The
Conservation Fund
Public Works Manager Komelis explained the following:
· Brad Meiklejohn, Alaska representative to The Conservation Fund was in
attendance to answer questions.
· The lay down information included the same information included in the
council packet but with a new photograph identifying the properties the Fund is
interested in trading (Fund property 6.42 Acres for City Parcel//7, plus $10,000 to
equal the appraisals) and purchasing {City Parcels 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6), as well as
indicating the "panhandle" area (a portion of City Parcel 2) suggested to be held for
future city use.
· The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended the City trade Parcel
7 for 6.42 Acres and suggested selling the five parcels except the "panhandle" portion
of Parcel 2. Meiklejohn was consulted and he indicated that would not be a problem.
· The Fund is interested in purchasing wetlands and not uplands.
The Harbor Commission recommended council go forward with the trade
and pursue the sale of Parcels 1-6 with the exception of Parcel 3.
· The Fund suggested the trade of their property for Parcel 7 but would
consider other property instead with equitable value.
IZ~NAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
JULY 20, 2005
PAGE 7
· Preference would be to have council's approval of the trade of Parcel 7
and the 6.42 Acres and the sale of city property as a previous letter from the Fund
indicated needing action by August, 2005.
· If council wants to retain the 'panhandle' portion of Parcel 2, a new
appraise should be ordered first.
· He was asked to investigate mitigation and he discussed the issue with
the Corps of Engineers. He learned, if the city wants to develop wetlands, mitigation
could be taking some of the city's upland area and turn it into wetlands as a trade.
Brad Meiklejohn, The Conservation Fund, Alaska Representative, Eagle River --
Meiklejohn noted the following:
· The Fund owns a piece of property at the city boat dock and would be
happy to part with a portion of it to facilitate traffic movement through the boat dock
area. He has been working with Komelis for several years in order for the Fund to
acquire good quality wetlands they are interested in protecting and get the city all the
access property they need.
· The piece they would be trading is actually a gravel pad and well suited
for the access project.
· They have had some money available for about two years which they
tried to allocate to another project on the Kenai Peninsula, however the project fell
through. The funding will expire in August, 2005 and they wanted to approach the
city with regard to the wetlands the city owns {any or all) above the bridge either on a
sale or conservation easement.
· They have no particular intentions for those parcels. The money they
have is earmarked for wetland protection {which would be perpetually protected).
If they felt there was some receptivity from the council to move forward
on the trade/purchase, they believed they could receive an extension on the funds,
possibly six months to a year.
· There are two separate transactions-- the trade and the proposed sale of
wetlands.
A brief discussion took place by council. Because there was not a full council in
attendance, there was interest in continuing the discussion of selling wetlands at the
August 3 meeting. Meiklejohn had no objection to the postponing of the proposed sale
of wetlands.
Porter stated a resolution would be prepared for the land trade for the August 3, 2005
council meeting and the discussion of possibly selling wetlands to The Conservation
Fund would be included as well.
Meiklejohn noted, selling of wetlands can sometimes be a concern for some and
suggested council consider the sale of a conservation easement, i.e. the sale of the
development rights to The Conservation Fund and allowing the city to retain
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
JULY 20, 2005
PAGE 8
ownership of the wetlands. He added, he did not know what the impact on value
would be, however he suggested it could be 90% of the fair market value and the
development rights which would not lower the appraised value by much. He
explained, although trickier, it is possible for development fights to be purchased for
terms for certain periods of time.

Public Works Manager Komelis noted the increase to the purchase order for concrete

Dear Mayor and Council,
Recently, the Kenai Chamber of Commerce presented a donation to the City of Kenai for
a memorial in memory of my late husband, John Watson.
His memorial has been foremost in my mind. I would like to encourage the city to use
the remaimng funds toward completion of the proposed town clock project.
I have selected a plaque to be placed in the sidewalk section, but estimate there will be
slightly over $6,000 left to apply toward completion of the proposed town clock project.
It is my understanding that the wording, Officer John Watson Memorial Fund, will be
placed among the list of donors.
Thank you for this consideration and I look forward to seeing this project become reality
in Kenai.

Re: Rotary Club of Kenai's "Big Tonkas on the Bluff"' program
If the schedule is not too full the Rotary Club of Kenai would appreciate an
opportunity to address the City Council at their regularly scheduled August 3
meeting concerning the Big Tonkas on the Bluff Program.
Rotary is an international service organization of professionals and business
people that celebrated its first centennial in 2004. Rotary is a non-political, non
religious organization that believes in working to make things better. To do this
we concentrate on four avenues of service,
Vocational. Community. International. Club
Big Tonkas on the Bluff started originally as a Vocational activity with the goal of
allowing children to experience full size heavy machinery in an accurate work
environment.
As we are business people and like to see maximum bang for the buck it
occurred to us that we could perform a Community service with the equipment
while demonstrating it to the children.
As it turns out the area where we demonstrate the equipment is adjacent to the
temporary home of the Kenai Peninsula Soccer Club, which is in short supply of
playing fields.
Based on what we discovered last year during the program we believe that
during the event this year we can develop one additional field adjacent to the
existing soccer fields, and will be able to perform some much needed
maintenance to the existing field that will improve the safety of the children at
play.
We have contacted a local hydro seeding business that is very generously willing
to donate the seed & labor, valued at $6,930.00 to add grass to the prepared
field if it can be used for an expansion area by KPSC.
Respectfully Submitted, andy Daly, Rotary Club of Kenai

MEMORANDUM

Linda L. Snow, City Manager
Keith Kornelis, Public Works Manager
DATE' July 14, 2005
SUBJECT:
FY 2006 Designated Legislative Grants
Attached is the letter from the State dated July 1, 2005, notifying the City of the
two grants that we have been awarded, i have talked to Jolene Julian, Grants
Administrator, who said that the project description might be brief and vague.
She also said that we could use City general fund money for a project now; arid
later, when we actually receive the funds, replace the general fund money with
this grant money. However, the expenditures have to be after this award letter of
July 1, 2005.
Below is my suggestion for use of the funds. The first project can be used for
any public improvements, so I'm sure there will not be a lack of suggestions on
how to use these funds.
KENAI PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS -$290,000
Water System Improvements:
The intended use of these funds (but not written into the grant) would be to help
to pay for furnishing and installing water treatment plants at our well houses. We
have an arsenic problem at Wells 1, 3, and 4 and a color problem at Well 2.
Senior Center Improvements:
Another option that could be considered is to use some of these grant funds for
the Senior Kitchen Project. We opened bids on this project yesterday and need
additional funds to award the construction. The State said we could use our
general fund money now and later replace it with this grant money.
Linda L. Snow, City Manager

July 14, 2005
KENAI ROAD AND SEWER IMPROVEMENTS -$790,000
Kenai Road System Improvements for the Purpose of Improving the
Transportation Routes and Parking Areas within the City:
These improvements to new or existing facilities may include but are not limited

Strategic Planning
Kenai Municipal Airport - Supplemental Planning Analysis
Strategic Planning
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this action is to have the City Council adopt a Mission Statement and Vision Statement
for the Kenai Municipal Airport as a reflection of City policy.
Airports represent different things to different people. To most, airports are where one goes to catch an
airplane to begin most long distance business or vacation trips. To others, the local airport is a base to
store and fly their personal airplane or to learn how to fly. And for others, the airport is a fuel stop on the
way to somewhere else. The military and flight schools often use local airports to practice takeoffs and
landings. Clearly, airports play a variety of roles in our state transportation system.
In order to move forward with the strategic planning process, and the creation of an airport business plan,
it is important for the City of Kenai to have a clear understanding of the role the Kenai Municipal Airport
currently plays as a transportation resource for the community. It is also just as important to have a clear
vision of how the airport should develop over time in order for it to remain an asset to the city.
To this end, the consultant team involved in the Kenai Municipal Airport- Supplemental Planning
Analysis, would like to recommend that the City Council adopt an Airport Mission Statement to infer
some order of priorities in how services are delivered at Kenai Municipal, and a Vision Statement as
description of a preferred furore for the airport.
BACKGROUND
A strategic plan is a method of determining the most effective use of an airport's investment and capital
opportunities. It is a document that shapes all other plans: facilities development, personnel, financial and
so on. The underlying framework of the strategic plan is to assess the airport within the context of the
Extemal Environment, Internal Activities and Financial Targets.
The Extemal Environment relates to the airport's business environment, the trends within the aviation
industry, the airport's customer base and root-cause analysis; that is, understanding the causes of trends
that have been identified. Internal Activities include operating activities, organization, strategy and staff.
Financial Targets relate to remm on investment, operating margins, capital intensity revenue growth, and
cash flow.
Simply put, strategic planning determines where an organization is going over long-term, how it's going
to get there and how it'll know if it got there or not. The focus of a strategic plan is usually on the entire
organization, while the focus of a business plan is usually on a particular service or program.
PURPOSE
The purpose of preparing a strategic plan is to:
Clearly define the purpose of Kenai Municipal Airport and to establish realistic goals and objectives
consistent with that mission in a defined time frame within the airport's capacity for implementation.
Keiser Phillips Associates
Draft July 6, 2005
Kenai Municipal Airport
Strategic Planning
2. Communicate those goals and objectives to the community.
3. Develop a sense of ownership of the plan.
4. Ensure the most effective use is made of the airport's resources by focusing the resources on the key
priorities.
5. Provide a base from which progress can be measured and establish a mechanism for informed change
when needed.
6. Building a consensus about the direction the airport is taking.
In summary, a strategic plan provides for clearer focus for the Kenai Municipal Airport and provides a
bridge between the Kenai Airport staff, City staff and the City Council.
MISSION STATEMENT
At its most basic, the mission statement describes the overall purpose of Kenai Municipal Airport. The
purpose of developing the mission statement is to infer some order of priorities in how services are
delivered and to clearly separate the mission of the Kenai Municipal Airport from other airports in the
KPB.
The recommended Mission Statement for Kenai Municipal Airport:
The primary mission of Kenai Municipal Airport is to enhance community economic
development through the provision of scheduled air carder passenger service to the state and
national air transportation system; the maintenance of a safe and efficient infrastructure for air
taxi, air cargo and general aviation users; and support of the City of Kenai as a gateway for
KPB tourists and recreational users while providing a high quality of service.
When creating this mission statement consideration was given to the airport's services, markets, values,
concern for public image, stakeholders and priorities of activities for survival and growth. Consideration
was also given to the importance and convenience having consistent and frequent scheduled air service in
Kenai as an alternative to a three to four hour drive to Anchorage.
VISION STATEMENT

It draws on the beliefs, mission, and
The recommended Vision of Kenai Municipal Airport is:
A strong air transportation hub with scheduled air carriers serving multiple destinations,
expanded air taxi, air cargo and floatplane facilities, and a fixed based operator (FBO)
supporting business aviation users. Airside activities will be sustained through a well-managed
landside development program that will enhance the attractiveness of the community through
consistent development standards, generate long-term revenue streams and protect the airport
environs from encroachment of incompatible land uses.
Ideally, this vision statement will identify a direction and purpose for Kenai Municipal Airport and alert
the community and stakeholders to needed change.

It is with deep regret that I am forced to ask you to accept this letter of resignation.
Due to the completely unexpected rapid increase in my bus charter business it has
become nearly impossible for me to attend the Parks and Recreation Commission
meetings on a regular basis.
I have very much enjoyed working with all of you and I hope at some point in the future
that I may again serve the City of Kenai in some capacity.
Best of luck to all,

PUBLIC HEARINGS
PZ05-42 - A resolution of the Planning and Zoning Commission of the
City of Kenai Alaska recommending to the Council that the Land Use
Table in KMC 14.22.010 be amended to add a footnote to the
Conservation Zone Land Use Table to allow seasonal and temporary food
service as an allowed use.
City Planner Kebschull explained the following'
· The resolution recommends to Council the Land Use Table in KMC
14.22.010 be amended to add a footnote to the Conservation Zone Land Use Table to
allow seasonal and temporary food service as an allowed use.
· Staff recommends approval.
Chairman Hammelman opened the public hearing.
Kristine Schmidt, 513 Ash Avenue, Kenai, Alaska- Ms. Schmidt noted the
following:
· Concern there was no information in the packet explaining the reason for
the amendment to the Land Use Table.
· Concern with attempts to change the zoning code for one project instead
of figuring out how the project could fit within the current zoning code.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING
JULY 27, 2005
PAGE 2
· Concern there will be permanent seasonal retail use in a conservation
zone and felt that would defeat the purpose of a conservation zone. Ms. Schmidt
thought the portion used for retail use should be put into a more appropriate zone.
Concern the duration of six months was too much time for seasonal or
temporary use.
Public hearing was closed.
MOTION:
Commissioner Amen MOVED to approve PZ05-42 and changing the duration from six
months to four months. Commissioner Bryson SECONDED the motion.
Commissioner Bryson noted the following:
· There needs to be some differentiation within the Conservation Zone for
different areas in the City; the food vendors may be appropriate for a few weekends on
the beach but not in other areas.
· Having the City bid for only one vendor is an uncomfortable situation.
Vendors would need permission from the City to sell on conservation
lands and there will be question on how one person could be allowed and another
rejected.
City Planner Kebschull responded that vendors would be allowed to sell in
conservation zones within the City with a special permit.
Amen expressed concern with the increase of trash, etc., and stated, he expects the
select activity to be policed and managed well and that four months be the maximum
for the permit. He added, he thought it would make good sense to have a trial basis
for a particular vendor or organization.
Chairman Hammelman asked if the permit would contain specific stipulations which
would address trash, etc. and Kebschull responded staff would create all stipulations
which would include insurance requirements.
Bryson noted the resolution did not provide any flexibility for limiting use through
approved vendors and asked if the resolution was the appropriate place for that
wording. Kebschull stated she didn't think the wording was necessary as one cannot
do something on another's property without permission and in this case it is the City.
-- once the City grants permission, then a review of the type of stipulations would be
required.

PZ05-43 - A resolution of the Planning and Zoning Commission of the
City of Kenai, Alaska recommending to the Council that the Land Use
Table in KMC 14.22.010 be amended to allow retail businesses such as
gift shops and coffee shops in the Education Zone as a secondary use.
City Planner Kebschull explained the follo~g:
· The resolution recommends to Council an amendment to the Kenai
Zoning Code Land Use Table in KMC 14.22.010 to allow retail businesses such as gift
shops and coffee shops in the Education Zone as a secondary use.
· Land uses allowed in the Education Zone such as schools, museums,
parks and recreations, and government buildings often have retail operations in them.
Such secondary uses are traditionally associated with such buildings
and would not detract from the purposes of the Education Zone.
· Staff recommended approval.
Hammelman opened the public hearing. There were no comments and the public
hearing was closed.
MOTION:
Commissioner Twa_it MOVED to approve PZ05-43 adding staff recommendations.

PZ05-45 - Conditional Use Permit for Restaurant and Catering for the
property known as Lot 21, Block 5, Original Townsite of Kenai {512
Upland Street), Kenai, Alaska. Application submitted by Sandra Vozar,
1000 Mission Avenue # 100, Kenai, Alaska.
City Planner Kebschull explained the following:
· The application is for a Conditional Use Permit for restaurant and
catering for the property known as Lot 21, Block 5 in the Original Townsite of Kenai.
· The zoning code for the Historic District requires restaurants to have a
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING

conditional use and when reviewed, it was to ensure that not only the integrity of the
zone was maintained but also to ensure that due to the lot size that all other
development requirements are met.
· If the Conditional Use Permit is granted, and because it is in a Historic
Zone, the use will come back to the Commission for the development phase. The
Commission will then review the actual plan and because it is commercial, a
landscape site plan and parking requirements, etc., will also be reviewed.
The Commission is tasked to specifically determine if a Conditional Use
Permit is appropriate to the proposed use.
· The conceptual drawing provided by the applicant was explained. It was
noted the apartment on the top is a permitted use and the sleeping quarters, even
though they are not specified what they are. She added, hotels, motels and cabin
rentals are a permitted in historic zones.
· This is a nonconforming lot but the code allows for nonconforming lots to
be developed as long as development requirements 'are met.
· Staff recommends approval as it appears the proposed restaurant meets
the criteria for a conditional use permit. If the permit is approved, the development
will be reviewed under criteria listed in KMC 14.20.105.
Hammelman noted the lay down provided prior the meeting and opened the public
hearing.
Rosalie Tepp, Tribal Chairperson for Kenaitze Indian Tribe, Kenai, Alaska -- Ms.
Tepp read a memo addressed to the City of Kenai Planning & Zoning Commission and
opposing the granting of a conditional use permit for Lot 21, Block 5.
Hammelman reminded the audience the Commission would only determine whether or
not the Conditional Use Permit could be applied to the property.
Alexandra Lindgren, Director Kenaitze Indian Tribe Cultural and Educational
Department Director- Ms. Lindgren noted the following:
· Her family has called Old Towne Kenai home for many generations.
· She has worked for the Tribe for 13 years and during that time has
worked with the City on projects directly associated with or located in Old Towne. The
projects required a major commitment of tribal staff time and resources.
· The results of the projects enhanced the historic character of Old Towne
and gives visitors an opportunity to. experience and appreciate their history and the
proposed restaurant structure would not.
· She hoped the City would stand by the commitment made years ago to
preserve the flavor and history of Old Towne.
Amen asked what Ms. Lindgren's opinion was of the Old Towne restaurant.
Lindgren replied she testified against it.
Ms.
Commissioner Eldridge arrived at 7:35 p.m.

Bonnie Juliussen, 1306 Castaway~ Kenai, Alaska- Ms. Juliussen noted the
followin§:
· She is the Elder Program Director for Kenaitze Indian Tribe.
The Elder Program recently purchased the Old Towne Restaurant.
· She asked the next step if the Conditional Use Permit would be granted
and if the City planned to develop the road, including upgrading and paving.
· She asked what direction Upland Road would go and whether or not the
City plans to survey.
Expressed concern with parking and traffic as there are elders walking
around the area.
Amen asked Juliussen what she considered the best use for the property and
Juliussen replied it could be just lawn or perhaps hold a monument for Kenatize
Indian Tribe people.
Stan Mishin, Kenaitze Indian Tribe, Kenai, Alaska- Mr. Mishin noted the follow/ng:
· The decision making should be made up front rather than after the
Conditional Use Permit is granted.
The proposed project is in direct violation of the City's zoning code with
regard to the lot width requirement.
· The proposed project would require a variance.
· The minimum number of parking spaces as defined by the Code is not
met in the conceptual drawing.
· The road shown on the map is nothing more than a dirt trail and asked if
the City would be investing in the area before issuing a permit.
Sandra Vozar, Kenai, Alaska- Ms. Vozar noted the following:
· Confirmed the Commission would only determine whether or not a
conditional use permit is possible at this time.
· The drawing provided in the packet is a general concept and she
intended to have professional plans drawn up but didn't want the additional expense if
a Conditional Use Permit was not possible.
The lot is 11 inches too short and she would have it surveyed to assure
the setback requirements are met.
· The road is being used and has been for thirty years.
· No parking was allowed for in the rear alley but it could be used.
· She would appreciate the Commission approving the Conditional Use
Permit.
Kristine Schmidt, 513 Ash, Kenai, Alaska- Ms. Schmidt noted the follow/ng:
· She disagreed with the statement the Commission couldn't look at the
building design because the front page of the staff report stated they would be
reviewing whether or not the use is consistent with the purpose of the chapter.
· The comments made are appropriate.
Public hearing was closed.

MOTION:
Commissioner Amen MOVED to approve PZ05-45 adding the Kenaitze Indian Tribe
memorandum and Commissioner Eldridge SECONDED the motion.
Amen asked to review the color aerial photo of the area and Vozar provided a copy for
review and becoming a part of the meeting packet.
Bryson noted three issues with the permit procedure:
· Conforming to the Townsite Historic Zone requirements.
· Relaxation of lot restrictions that are created by zoning ordinance which
requires a variance.
Conditional use for a specific use, and in this case it was clear the stated
use was a 40-seat, 330'x 71' building as presented.
· The conditional use may be appropriate for the use; the variance is
appropriate for the relaxation of lot restriction issues.
Amen asked staff to expand on the 50' width versus the code requirement and
Kebschull explained zoning codes allow for nonconforming uses of lots and structures
that exist at the time the Code was adopted. This Code was adopted in 1984 and the
lot was plotted long before the lot size restrictions were posted. As a result, this
nonconforming lot can be used as long as it meets all other restrictions.
Commissioner Eldridge expressed concern with the parking and stated he did not feel
there was enough space for a restaurant. Bryson noted a recreational vehicle would
not fit properly in the proposed parking area. Kebschull noted there is a provision in
the Code that states if there isn't sufficient parking, public parking within 300 feet of
the business may be used.
Eldridge noted a smaller structure would fit better on the lot.
AMENDED MOTION:
Commissioner Eldridge MOVED to amend the main motion by adding that the plan as
submitted is not acceptable and a revised plan would have to be made before
proceeding with the restaurant construction. Commissioner Twa_it SECONDED the
motion.

The public hearing was closed.
MOTION:
Commissioner Amen MOVED to approve PZ05-46 and Commissioner Eldridge
SECONDED the motion.
Discussion followed and the comments included:
· The rezoning goes against the Comprehensive Plan.
· The property should remain rural residential.
· The legal description came from the Borough records and the scale lot
appears to be 150 x 300 feet.
This is a 'leaps and bounds' description that would go around the
property and describe the distances.
· There are only three dimensions on the description and none of the three
appear to be compatible with the lot.
The description may not be able to be used.
Hammelman stated he thought the area along the Kenai Spur Highway was a good
place for a business, however, not necessarily this one but the lot has good access. He
questioned the change if the applicant was only going to be in business for a month.

The Honorable Pat Porter
Mayor of the City of Kenai
210 Fidalgo Avenue, Suite 200
Kenai, AK 99611
Dear Mayor Porter:
As you know, last winter the Kenai Peninsula Borough and the Alaska business
community received devastating news' Agrium Inc. proposed to close their Nikiski
ammonia and urea plant unless a large supply of natural gas could be purchased at a
reasonable cost.
For understandable reasons, Agrium's announcement created widespread
concerns that nothing could be done to persuade the company to remain in Alaska.
As Governor, I could not sit still and allow the company to close without ensuring that
no stone went unturned in trying to secure a gas supply.
In early February I asked community leaders to form a task force to find a way
to keep the plant operating. I was unwilling to simply go along with Agrium's
announced plans to shut down if they could not secure an adequate gas supply.
While serving in the U.S. Senate I watched as the past state administrations stood still
while the timber industry was systematically shut down throughout Southeast. I
knew in this case it would be an uphill battle but I knew that the result could be
worth the fight.
I am proud of the work the task force accomplished as reflected in the
announcement Agrium made last week and special thanks goes to task force co-chairs
Bob Favretto and Bill Popp.
Certainly the good news is that Agrium has a sufficient gas supply to keep the
Nikiski plant running for another year. But we also know we can't stop now because
this is a temporary reprieve. I have asked the task force to continue its work to
determine a longer-term solution that will ensure Agrium remains a valuable member
of the Kenai Peninsula Borough community.
Be assured our efforts will continue not only for the Kenai Peninsula but also
on the larger task of getting North Slope gas to Southcentral. The next couple of
months will be very important in the negotiations and I look forward to reporting to
Alaskans on our progress in the near future.
In the meantime, I hope your summer is going well!
Sincerely yours,
Frank H. Murkows

RE:
GO VERNOR'$ A G~ TASK FOR CE
On behalf of the City of Kenai, thank you for your time, efforts and dedication to the
Governor's Agrium Task Force project. Your past months of work has culminated in
your development of a number of recommendations to the State related to the plant's
closer, i.e. oil and gas leasing, exploration, training for impacted employees, seismic
surveys, promotion of diversification, etc.
We at the City of Kenai truly appreciate your efforts. Your continued work on the
short- and long-term solutions to keep the Agrium plant open, including the
promotion of gas exploration in the Cook Inlet and bringing gas from other basins in
the state to the Agrium plant is very important to our local communities and economic
solvency.
Thank you again and keep up the good work!

ADEC - Loan Funds
Attached is a letter outlining the ADEC loan program. The City has two projects
on the priority list, and there are funds available for these loans.
1. ADWF - Water Treatment System - Well Houses 1, 2, 3, and 4 - $1,600,000
2. ACWF- Maintenance Shop Site Remediation = $1,000,000
The City attorney has stated that a vote of our citizens is needed to take out a
loan of this magnitude. It is something we may want to discuss.

Dear Alaskan'
Enclosed you will find the State Fiscal Year 2006 (SFY06) Alaska Clean Water Fund
(ACWF) and Alaska Drinking Water Fund (ADWF) draft Intended Use Plans (IUPs) with
the proposed priority lists for projects eligible for loans for this next year. These programs
provide Iow-interest loans to finance sewerage, solid waste and drinking water projects.
These draft plans are provided for your review and comment on the proposed uses and
priorities of the Funds. The draft IUP's and project lists are also available On our web at:
http://www.dec.state.ak, us/water/muniloan/acwfiup06.pdf. The comment period will end on
August 26, 2005.
Since last year's IUP publication, we have lowered the interest rates for ACWF loans. A
20-year term loan with an interest rate of 2.5% is now at 1.5%. This new interest rate will
add further savings to our already lower than market interest rates. Additionally, we are
proposing to do a fund transfer from the ACWF to the ADWF. This transfer will greatly
increase available project funds in the ADWF program. -
Please use this as an opportunity to provide input on the loan programs. If there is
something we should do differently or could do better, please let us know. Please write or

Willow Street Rehabilitation
This project will replace approximately 2,500 ft. of water main with ductile iron pipe. A fifty year old

Garden Terrace Water System Upgrade, Phase' II
The Garden Terrace Water system, maintained by the Borough has been plagued with poor quality,
highly corrosive and difficult to treat groundwater wells. Th/s project will provide new water mains in
the subdivision to replace those wells with safe and reliable water from the City of Wasilla's water
system.
NOME/NOME JOINT UTILITY SYSTEM
Water Distribution System
This project will construct a new pumping plant for the community water distribution system. The
pumping plant must be co-located within the community power plant in order to provide for continual
surveillance and a source of heat to inject into the water to keep it from freezing. The existing power
plant will be decommissioned and equipment inside the Airport Runway Protection Zone must be
dismanded. By moving and upgrading the water distribution system pumping plant, we will be able to
add dtizens not currently served by a piped system to the distribution system. If the pumping plant
were left in its ex/sting location, without the ability to heat, the entire community water system would
be in jeopardy of freezing. In addition, modern SC_ADA monitoring equipment insmmnentation will be
added.

Questions about Foundations
Council asked that we provide information regarding whether a foundation that is a
separate legal entity established to benefit the City would have to be included in the
financial statements of the City.
Generally accepted accounting principles, GAAP, govern which entities need to be
included in a government's financial statement. It is a complex area of accounting with
many decision points relating both to whether an entity should be included, and if so,
how it should be reported.
Basically whether to include the foundation in the financial statements boils down three
tests:
1. does the primary govemment (the City) have control of the board of the
foundation?
2. is there an ongoing exclusive financial benefit to the City or dependence on the
City for funding?
3. would exclusion result in misleading financial reporting?
Governments routinely have component units that are included in their financial
statements, so there is nothing inherently wrong with having a component unit. For
example, the School District is a component unit of the Borough.
The potential problems associated with component units and financial reporting is that
the component unit may not properly account for its activities or may not timely report its
activities to the primary government. Audit issues could complicate the preparation of
the City's financial statement and audits will likely be more expensive depending on the
magnitude of the component unit.
A foundation could be formed that is not a component unit of the City, but the City would
not have control of the activities of the foundation. If the goal is for the City to have
control, the foundation would most likely be a component unit and would have to be
included in the financial statements either as a stand alone entity or simply blended in
with the General Fund.

Foundation
I have done some research on community foundations.
Anchorage established a new foundation in December 2004. The contact
person is Beth Nordlund 343-4492. This foundation is actually a part of the
Alaska Community Foundation. The Anchorage Parks Foundation is not
actually a legal entity at this point although they are working on obtaining
not-for-profit status. Beth has been very involved in setting up the
foundation and would be an excellent resource for you or the Mayor to talk
to. She also recommended checking out Kent and Everett Washington as
they recently set up foundations with the help of a contractor.
I have attempted to contact Joy Steward at the Homer Foundation, 235-0541.
This foundation recently received a $50,000 grant from the Rasmusson
Foundation.
I called Marsha Hastings at the Alaska Community Foundation, 265-6044,
but have not been able to talk to her. This foundation describes itself as sort
of a branch banking system with four affiliate foundations including one
called the Kenai Peninsula Foundation.
It appears that these foundations are independent, even though the new
Anchorage Parks Foundation utilizes a City staff person. They have not
gone through an audit since the foundation has been formed, so it is hard to
say whether it will be deemed to be a component unit.
