Subject: Lease Renewal -Schilling Rentals LLC, Lot 9A FBO
Subdivision
Schilling Rentals , LLC, has submitted an application to the City for a renewal of a
lease set to expire on May 31 , 2019 on Lot 9A, FBO Subdivision .
Airport Commission initially unanimously recommended approval of a five-year
lease on April 10, 2014.
The new lease application describes the use for aircraft parking, loading, and
support facilities for the hangar and office space on the adjacent lot 11A (green
hangar). The lot has been developed in accordance with the use .
I have reviewed the lease application in accordance with KMC 21.10.070:
•!• Airport Lay Out Plan: FAA approved 2/26/2018 shows:
Sheet 13 of 19 Existing Land Use -designates land use as undeveloped
subdivided lots
Sheet 14 of 19 Future Land Use -designates land use as commercial and
non-commercial aviaton
Sheet 15 of 19 Existing Zoning Map -airport light industrial
Page 1
Page 5 of 24
Page 16 of 19 Future Zoning -airport light industrial
Development is compliant with the conditions of the April 2014 review.
The lease renewal will be reviewed at the April 10 , 2019 Planning and Zoning
meeting .
Does Airport Commission recommend Council approve the lease renewal
between the City of Kenai and Schilling Rentals, LLC for Lot 9A, FBO
Subdivision?

Discussion and Recommendation -Application for Renewal of Lease
Land within the Airport Reserve submitted by Schilling Rentals LLC , for the
property described as Lot 9A, FBO Subdivision No. 9, located at 433 N.
Willow Street, Kenai, Alaska 99611
Schilling Rentals , LLC, submitted an application to the City for a renewal of the lease set to expire
on May 31 , 2019 on Lot 9A, FBO Subdivision . The application requests a term of 36 years ,
however, after confirming the investment amount of $224,475 against the term table in Kenai
Municipal Code (KMC) 21.10.080 , the City and the applicant are in agreement of a term of 33
years.
Schilling Rentals also leases the adjacent property on Lot 11 A that has a green-colored hangar.
Lot 9A would support the hangar operations of the adjacent parcel. The original lease application
notes the parcel uses will involve supplying parking for aircraft, providing for access of service
vehicles, and the transport of aircraft to the adjacent hangar located on Lot 11 A. Schilling Rentals
included photos in their application to demonstrated improvements (gravel and site preparation
work) that have been done during the five years of their current lease .
The parcels are within the Airport Light Industrial (ALI) Zone per Kenai Municipal Code (KMC)
14.20.065. The intent of the ALI Zone is to protect the viability of the Kenai Municipal Airport as a
significant resource to the community by encouraging compatible land uses and reducing hazards
that may endanger the lives and property of the public and aviation users. The proposed use by
Schilling Rentals , LLC is a permitted use in the ALI Zone and is a compatible land use .
The Imagine Kena i 2030 Comprehensive Plan outlines goals , objectives , and action items for the
City, including this one pertaining to the Kenai Municipal Airport:
Page 7 of 24
Page 2 of 2
Schilling Rentals Lease Renewal
• Objective T-1 : Support future development near or adjacent to the airport when such
development is in alignment with the Kenai Municipal Airport's primary mission , "To be the
commercial air transportation gateway to the Kenai Peninsula Borough and Cook Inlet."
The proposed use by Schilling Rentals complies with the Imagine Kenai 2030 Comprehensive
Plan in that it supports development on lease lots and the development is in alignment with the
Kenai Municipal Airport 's marketing strategy.
The Airport Land Use Plan was developed to identify the highest and best uses of Kenai Municipal
Airport land . The Airport Land Use Plan discusses leasing land and enhancing opportunities for
local economic development. The proposed use by Schilling Rentals complies with the Airport
Land Use Plan.
Pursuant to KMC 21.10.060(c), the City must publish public notice of a lease application and allow
thirty (30) days for competing lease applications for the same property to be submitted to the City
for consideration. The City published a public notice of the Schilling Rentals lease applications in
the Peninsula Clarion on April 2nd_ The application will be considered by the Planning and Zoning
Commission and Airport Commission before going to City Council for approval of the lease
execution .
Does the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend the execution of a lease renewal
between the City of Kenai and Schilling Rentals, LLC for Lot 9A, FBO subdivision?
Thank you for your consideration .

Preserving History
I have begun the process of interviewing Joanna Hollier
in order to record the history of air service to and from
Kenai. Joanna was invo lved in air service from the 1940s
and off and on for many years. One never knows where
an interview will go and what stories may come about,
but part of what will be learned is how the airport grew
and changed in the decades since she arrived to be a part
of the story.
The following pages contain photos that I gleaned from
the Facebook website "A Work in Progress-Growing up
on the Kenai". Many people post photos on this site and
it is an endless source of history of Kenai, Soldotna,
Sterling, Kasilof, and other communities on the Kenai
Peninsula. The group has been organizing for several
years and are working towards producing a book that I
have long believed would be a wonderful sequel to "Once
Upon the Kenai".

The infamous AA!, flights.from Anchorage to Kenai (and Homer, as well). The somewhat sketchy rep -
utation of this airlin e was probably not really des erved, but there were enough "interesting experienc-
es" that people actually told th eir· p ersonal horror stories at social gath erings--kind of a badg e of
courage to have taken a flight with them and survived the experience, I guess. Editor

ter in Kenai. President June Harris opened the meeting at 1:34 p.m.
The minutes of the February 2019 meeting were reviewed by the membership and with two typos to be
corrected were approved as written.
The treasure report shows the Alaska USA checking balance stands at $13,576.12 and our Credit Union
Money Market account balance is $10,321.40. The Edward Jones Account as of February 28, 2019 is
$24,592-49 and a loss of $1790.66 and a total value of $24,592-49 on an invested a mount of $25,54uo

$50,000.00 invested on February 18, 2016) A motion to approve by Virginia Walters, seconded by Pau-
la Bute, this report was approved unanimously.
Old Business :
The Cabin Fund Balance of $13,078.37., with $5050.00 salary for the 2019 summer cabin guide. The
City Manager wants a security system installed and is seeking a grant. This system would put cameras
by the North Beach fence, Art Guild, the individual cabins, and Dr. Pete's cabin. The City of Kenai has
no r ecord of the transfer of the cabins. Need to look through our records to see if there is any record.
New Business:
We need to thank Joanna and the staff of the Visitor Center for the use of this meeting space.
The next meeting is scheduled for April 7, 2019, and the speaker will be Ray Rawley.
Howard Hill moved and Joe Harris seconded the close of today's business meeting.
Today's speaker is Terri Wilson with a visual presentation of the 1964 earthquake.
Respectfully submitted by Sharon Fisher, Secretary.
