ENACTED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, this 18th day of December, 2019. BRIAN GABRIEL SR., MAYOR ATTEST: ___________________________________ Jamie Heinz, CMC, City Clerk Approved by Finance __________________ Introduced: December 4, 2019 Enacted: December 18, 2019 Effective: January 17, 2020 Page 8 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager FROM: David Ross, Police Chief Stormy Brown, Human Resource Director DATE: November 18, 2019 SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3098-2019 - Amending Kenai Municipal Code Addressing Police Officer Compensation ______________________________________________________________________ The Police Department has been having officer recruitment and retention challenges for several years now. The challenges have included: 1. Attracting strong applicants to apply for positions at the Department. 2. Retaining highly trained and qualified officers. 3. Consistently meeting the needs and expectations of the community with existing staff. 4. Staying competitive with other agencies around the State that are making extensive efforts to recruit and retain officers, including to recruit lateral officers from other departments such as ours. The Human Resource Director and Police Chief, along with support from other members of administration have spent a great deal of time over this past year analyzing those challenges, evaluating turnover, evaluating comparative compensation data, evaluating what is occurring in departments around the State, and evaluating solutions. That analysis resulted in some basic findings including: 1) The police department is having recruitment and retention issues that need to be addressed. 2) Internal policies and practices that could impact recruitment, and retention have been changed and others continue to be analyzed. 3) The cause of those challenges experienced by the Department are multifaceted, but in line with state and national trends in law enforcement. 4) There are areas of strength in the City’s pay & benefit package and areas of weakness when it comes to attracting officers and retaining them as they gain experience and expertise. 5) Law Enforcement requires extensive training at the beginning of employment, and ongoing training to maintain and expand skills. That training has a high cost both in dollars and dedicated hours. 6) We needed to take an in-depth Page 9 Page 2 of 3 Ordinance No. 3098-2019 look at each item of the pay structure and determine what changes could have the greatest impact toward recruiting and retaining officers. The analysis conducted by the City Administration has resulted in Code change recommendations under Ordinance No. 3098-2019. Those recommended changes include: 1. The City Manager is given authorization to use signing bonuses to recruit certified police officers that have already attended an in-state academy or one that is granted reciprocity. Hiring of lateral officers that do not have to attend the 16-week police academy in Sitka is a significant cost savings and time savings for officers to be on the road and functioning as a trained police officer. (i.e. hiring an Alaska certified police officer saves the City approximately $13,500 in academy travel and tuitions costs in addition to salary and benefits during the 16 weeks of attendance and an out-of-State officer granted reciprocity through the Alaska Police Standards Council is also a significant cost saving, requiring only a two week academy at a cost of under $3,500 in travel and tuition rather than the full academy.) 2. Shift differential pay for swing shift and night shift are adjusted from 2% and 4% to 3% and 6%, respectively. These increased rates are common in law enforcement and among those agencies in the State that are competitively recruiting. This change impacts a couple other departments including Dispatch and the Airport, who also have personnel starting work on later shifts. Shift differential under this change would also be pegged to the employee’s current range and step rather than Step A of their Range as was previously the case. 3. Creation of a “Senior Officer” pay adjustment that would take an officer from a 16E on the pay scale to a 17D. This adjustment at approximately five years of experience addresses several issues: 1. It addresses the fact that officer pay loses competitiveness with peers as time goes on. 2. It considers that some other agencies are recruiting lateral officers with higher starting pay incentives than had previously been the case. 3. It considers the high value of both training and experience that a senior officer provides to the Department. 4. The Police Sergeant positions are adjusted from pay range 18 to pay range 19. The reasons for this adjustment are two-fold: 1. To recruit into the position and to retain the most highly qualified individuals. 2. To address compression in pay with lower ranking positions created by other changes within the ordinance. 5. The Police Lieutenant position is adjusted from pay range 20 to pay range 22. This position is exempt under FSLA. In order to be able to competitively recruit from highly qualified supervisors, and to retain a highly qualified person in this position this pay range adjustment is needed. This adjustment is also necessary given the other changes within this ordinance, to address compression in pay with lower ranking positions. As part of this change the Police Lieutenant will directly supervise the Animal Control division. 6. Recognition pay for a Field Training Officer, as assigned to this duty by the Chief, is instituted. This is very standard in law enforcement and among those agencies in the State that are competitively recruiting. A new officer is commonly placed with three Field Training Officers at the Department for a total of approximately three months (each trainer for a month) at the beginning of their employment. That trainer spends every shift with the trainee, evaluating and training them throughout every day. This requires a very intensive training effort and very high level of commitment on the trainer. The 5% recognition pay received for this is only received by the officer during the period they are actually assigned to training. 7. Recognition pay for investigators, as assigned to this duty by the Chief, is instituted. Again, this is very standard in law enforcement and among those agencies in the State that are competitively recruiting. When fully staffed, the Department currently operates Page 10 Page 3 of 3 Ordinance No. 3098-2019 with four investigators. These investigators are drawn from patrol officers and assigned to work on the most serious of cases including Felony Assaults, Homicides, Sexual Abuse of a Minor, Sexual Assaults, complex drug cases, and various other cases that require a high degree of training and proficiency. It is common to move highly trained and very experienced officers into the investigator role to handle those cases, however without this pay incentive it can be difficult to recruit officers into that role, when they would otherwise make more money given shift differential pay, and overtime commonly available in patrol. The 5% recognition pay received for this duty is only received by the officer during the period they are actually assigned as an investigator. The annual estimated cost of these compensation changes is approximately $115,000, assuming full staffing of the police department, exclusive of any Field Training Officer details, and exclusive of paying any hiring bonuses. It is anticipated that hiring bonuses would be up to $20,000 for an Alaska Certified Police Officer and up to $10,000 for an out of State Police officer who meets reciprocity standards with the Alaska Police Standards Council. Those bonuses, if given, would result in payments over a period up to four years. The first year anticipated cost for the bonus for an in-State lateral officer would be $6,349 and the first year anticipated cost for the bonus for an out-of-State lateral officer would be $5,079. If given, these bonuses would result in cost savings in the FY21 budget, when compared to the costs associated with sending an officer to a full academy in Sitka. It is the intent of the administration to absorb these increases in the FY2021 Budget without a change to the General Fund’s revenue rates and percentages. These recommendations are the work of the Human Resource Director, the Police Chief, and the administration to identify a reasoned and measured response to what is occurring in the police department and in law enforcement in general. In conjunction with the work on these changes, the City Manager has met with all the officers of the Department in both 2018 and 2019 to discuss recruitment, retention, staffing, and compensation-related issues, and those officers are all aware of the administration’s efforts to improve officer recruitment and retention. Your consideration of this ordinance is respectfully requested. Page 11 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager FROM: Terry Eubank, Finance Director DATE: November 25, 2019 SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3098-2019 – Police Compensation Amendment ____________________________________________________________________________ The purpose of this memo is to discuss the financial impact of the proposed amendments to Kenai Municipal Code (KMC) Title 23 – Personnel Regulations in an effort to attract and retain qualified police officers. Ordinance 3098-2019 amends several sections of KMC Title 23 with the estimated FY19 and future fiscal year impact for each. Signing Bonus The payment of a $20,000 signing bonus to a candidate who has successfully completed an Alaskan police academy recognized by the Alaska Police Standards Council (APSC) would be accomplished as follows: After 90 days of employment $ 5,000 Successful completion of probationary period (typically one-year of employment 5,000 Upon completion of two-years of employment 5,000 Upon completion of three-yeas of employment 5,000 $20,000 The cost per fiscal year of this change is estimated to be $6,349 including associated benefits. The payment of a $10,000 signing bonus to a candidate who has successfully completed a police academy recognized by the Alaska Police Standards Council (APSC) would be accomplished as follows: Page 12 Page 2 of 3 Ordinance No. 3098-2019 – Police Compensation Amendment After 90 days of employment $ 4,000 Successful completion of probationary period (typically one-year of employment 3,000 Upon completion of two-years of employment 3,000 $10,000 The cost of this change, including associated benefits, in the first fiscal year is estimated to be $5,079 and in year’s two and three $3,810. Shift Differential Increasing the percentage paid for working certain shifts and changing the pay rate to which the percentage will be applied from Step A of the employee’s pay range to the employee’s actual range and step. The estimated annual cost of this change is for the Police Department will be $23,824. This change will also impact the Airport and Communications Department an estimated $3,234, for a total impact of $27,058. Police Lieutenant Reclassification The proposal is to reclassify the Police Lieutenant position from a Range 20 to Range 22. The estimated annual cost of this change is $13,633, including associated benefits. There is only one full time, authorized Police Lieutenant Position. Police Sergeant Reclassification The proposal is to reclassify the Police Sergeant position from a Range 18 to Range 19. The estimated annual cost of this change is $19,854 including associated benefits. There are three full time, authorized Police Sergeant Positions. Senior Officer Qualification Pay The proposal is to provide a new qualification pay, entitled Senior Officer, to be applied to Police Officers receiving a satisfactory evaluation at the conclusion of Step 16E where the officer’s pay would increase by one range to Range 17E. The effect of this change would: be slightly more than a normal step increase to Step F, provide for another step increase in one year as opposed to two, increase the time in which the officer will reach the top end of their pay scale by one year, and increase the maximum compensation of the officer by five percent. The estimated annual cost of this change is $28,274 including associated benefits. There are thirteen full time, authorized Police Officer positions, of which seven would be currently eligible for this change. Field Training Officer (FTO) Qualification Pay The proposal is to provide a new qualification pay, entitled Field Training Officer, to be applied to an Officer or Sergeant performing FTO duties. This pay item would provide for a five-percent increase to the employee’s current range and step while performing FTO duties. The estimated cost per training of a new Officer in FTO status, estimated to be three months long, would be $1,578. Investigator Qualification Pay The proposal is to provide a new qualification pay, entitled Investigator, to be applied to an Officer or Sergeant performing Investigator duties. This pay item would provide for a five-percent increase to the employee’s current range and step while performing Investigator duties. The estimated cost is $24,393. The department normally has three Officers and one Sergeant performing Investigator duties. Page 13 Page 3 of 3 Ordinance No. 3098-2019 – Police Compensation Amendment The total financial impact of these change in FY19 is estimated at $33,226 and $115,000 in subsequent years, assuming full staffing of the police department, exclusive of any Field Training Officer details, and exclusive of paying any hiring bonuses.

As these positions have had recent turnover, it was an opportunity to review the current design and position descriptions to improve recruitment efforts, as well as efficiency and effectiveness of both functions. The first revision included separating the existing Water and Sewer Operator position (Grade 13) into two levels within the same job: Operator I & II, at grades 10 and 13, respectively. The intention is to allow a broader pool of candidates with less formal training to apply for the positions at the Operator I level, and then permit the successful new hire Operator I’s to continue training and working on certifications while working in the position. Once minimum requirements of training, certifications, and work experience have been completed, qualified employees would be moved to the Operator II stage. The next step was to revise and combine the Wastewater side of the Operators (into Operator I and II), and to continue to update and improve job descriptions to support the organizational design improvements planned for this group in Phase II of these updates. Making these changes will allow for cross-training between the functions, as well as more efficient and consistent management of this division. Thank you for your consideration.

WHEREAS, AS 29.60.450 requires that for a municipality to participate in the FY20 Shared Fisheries Business Tax Program, the municipality must demonstrate to the Department of Community and Economic Development that the municipality suffered significant effects during calendar year 2018 from fisheries business activities; and, WHEREAS, 3 AAC 134.060 provides for the allocation of available program funding to eligible municipalities located within fisheries management areas specified by the Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development; and, WHEREAS, 3 AAC 134.070 provides for the use, at the discretion of the Department of Community and Economic Development, of alternative allocation methods which may be used within fisheries management areas if all eligible municipalities within the area agree to use the method, and the method incorporates some measure of the relative significant effect of fisheries business activity on the respective municipalities in the area; and, WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Kenai proposes to use an alternative allocation method for allocation of FY20 funding available within FMA 14: Cook Inlet Area in agreement with all other municipalities in this area participating in the FY20 Shared Fisheries Business Tax Program. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA: Section 1. That the Kenai City Council by this Resolution certifies that the following alternative allocation method fairly represents the distribution of significant effects during 2018 of fisheries business activity in FMA 14: Cook Inlet Area: • That all municipalities share equally 50% of the allocation; all municipalities share the remaining 50% on a per capita basis. Section 2. That this resolution takes effect immediately upon adoption. ADOPTED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, this 18th day of December, 2019. BRIAN GABRIEL SR., MAYOR ATTEST: ______________________________________ Jamie Heinz, CMC, City Clerk Page 24 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager FROM: Terry Eubank, Finance Director DATE: December 4, 2019 SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2019-79 Adopting an Alternate Allocation Method for FY20 Shared Fisheries Business Tax ____________________________________________________________________________ The City receives revenue from the State of Alaska for fish tax collected by the State in two different methods. The Department of Revenue (DOR) distributes “Raw Fish Tax,” fisheries business taxes, fishery resource landing taxes, salmon marketing tax, and other seafood taxes from licensed seafood processors, floating processors, and seafood exporters, to eligible municipalities as prescribed in AS 43.77.060. The City’s FY2019 share was $126,185.15 and was based upon 2017 collections by the DOR. The second method by which the City receives fish tax revenue is through the Alaska Department of Commerce Community and Economic Development (ADCCED) Shared Fisheries Business Tax Program. ADCCED receives 50% of the undistributed Raw Fish Tax from the DOR to distribute to impacted communities. For the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area, which the City is a part of, the amount to be distributed in FY20 is $16,277.16. Twelve communities will receive a portion of that amount with the City of Kenai estimated to receive $792.88. There are two methods of allocation for the Shared Fisheries Business Tax. The first method involves a lengthy application process in which the applicants must show the impact to their local community of the fishing industry. Once impact is shown, half of the total amount to be distributed ($16,277.16 for FY2020) is divided equally amongst the communities, and the remaining half is distributed based upon the impact shown in their application. The second method permits all communities in Fisheries Management Area to elect an alternate method of allocation. This alternate method eliminates the lengthy community application process. Since inception of the Share Fisheries Business Tax Program in fiscal year 1992, the communities of the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area have selected the alternate allocation method. A resolution like 2019-79 has been adopted every year since fiscal year 1992 and is a required step to elect the alternate allocation method. Page 25 Page 2 of 2 Resolution 2019-79 The alternate method elected by the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area for FY20 will again include an equal distribution of one-half the total and the remaining half is distributed based upon population of the community. The twelve communities in the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area are Anchorage, Homer, Kachemak, Kenai, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Seldovia, Seward, Soldotna, Matsu Borough, Houston, Palmer, and Wasilla. Allocations to each community under the alternative allocation method will be the following: Anchorage $5,517.01 Kenai Peninsula Borough $1,636.11 Homer 767.38 Seldovia 681.82 Kachemak 686.59 Seward 720.55 Kenai 792.88 Soldotna 749.10 Matsu Borough 2,410.54 Houston 712.62 Palmer 780.16 Wasilla 822.40 Thank you for your consideration.

Page 34 CITY OF KENAI CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM (CIP) PRIORITIESFOR STATE FUNDING REQUESTS FORSFY 2021PROJECTS IDENTIFIED AND LISTED IN PRIORITY ORDERPRIORITY NUMBERPROJECT TITLE DESCRIPTION NEEDED FUNDING NOTES/COMMENTS1Kenai Bluff Stabilization Project Construct an approximately 5,000 lineal foot erosion control structure on the north shore near the mouth of the Kenai River. $5,000,000 Requested for funding during SFY 2021 The Army Corps of Engineers completed the feasibility study for the project and is entering the pre-construction engineering and deisgn phase (PED). The total cost of the project including design and construction is estimated at $32.5 million. This will require approximately $11,375,000 of funding to match Federal funding of $21,125,000. To date, $4,000,000 of State Grant funds and $585,000 of Federal funds have been committed to the project. Additionally, the residents of the City of Kenai approved the issuance of $2,000,000 in general obligation bonds through ballot proposition. Once the Feasibility Study is completed, Federal funding will be needed for design and construction of the project. Additional State funding could be used to provide the required match for the Federal funds.2Wildwood Drive Reconstruct 2,318 food of roadway. Existing road is 22-foot, and this project will widen to 24-foot and provide drainage ditching on both sides of roadway, remove existing deteriorating asphalt, stabilize sub-base, compact, and pave. $ 290,000.00 Wildwood drive provides access to the Wildwood Correctional Facility, and the City requires ownership and site control prior to proceeding with upgrades, which have been needed for at least 40 years. The City is currently working with the Kenai Native Association to gain site control for the road the City has maintained for decades. 3Paving & Improvements to City Streets The City of Kenai maintains approximately 20 miles of gravel surfaced roadways within its municipal boundaries. The cost of maintenance of gravel roadways is high, dust from gravel roadways is a health issue for the elderly & young. The City maintains an ongoing Local Improvement District (LID) program to pave local streets and roads with the City providing a 50% cost share for the improvements. $ 1,000,000.00 The ongoing infrastructure improvements funded by past State of Alaska capital grants has improved the safety and operational efficiency of the City's roadways. The projects have been designed and constructed by local consultants and contractors providing further economic benefits to the area.4Digester Blower and Building This project will replace two 40-year old blowers and install blowers in a new prefab metal building approx. 24 x 24 at the City's Wastewater Treatment Plant. $ 750,000.00 Replacement of this equipment will significantly modernize this process and will result in substantial energy savings. The new proposed building will eliminate the need for buried air lines which have historically had numerous issues with leakage after every earthquake. The close proximity of new building to the Digestor provides for greater efficiency and ease of maintenance.Page 1 of 3 Prepared by: P.

The improvements would include, but not be limited to; HVAC, New Facility Entrance, roof replacement, replacement of spectator seating, locker room reconstruction, fixture replacements, flooring, and other interior remodel/reconstruction. $ 750,000.00 The Kenai Recreation Center is housed in a building that has reached a stage in its life cycle that significant renovations are necessary. After 20-30 years there are many components of the building that need repair or replacement to maintain an acceptable standard of service, and to decrease the rising costs of ongoing operations and maintenence issues in commercial/public buildings.6Dispatch Radio Replacement This project is a critical replacement of outdated dispatch radios and recording equipment. $ 200,000.00 Grants have been applied for multiple years for this replacement. It is unknown if any or all of the above amount will be covered by the current grant request. Without full grant funding, the City will have to cover all or part of the upgrade at some point in the near future. 7Mobile Radio Replacement This project will replace all vehicle mounted mobile radios that will be beyond their service life, with newer P-25 compliant radios. $ 100,000.00 We still have some time to try to get grant funding for these replacements, but it is on the horizon if grant funding does not materialize.8Softball Green strip Play Equipment Replacement Project provides funds to replace an aging and obsolete children's playground located at one of the most heavily used outdoor locations. $ 85,000.00 This area is near the adult softball fields and adjacent to a large green strip with a shelter and restrooms. 9Personal Use Fishery Float ReplacementsThis project purchases ten new floats at the City Dock. There are currently 22 float sections in total for the ramp and another 8 for the front of the trestle. $ 50,000.00 This project takes appropriate steps to ensure the safety of both private citizens that utilize the Dock during the Dipnet Fishery as well as commercial fisherman that may use the Dock when putting boats in/out for the season. Replacements shall be phased over the next few years as funding may allow.10Boat Ramp Concrete Repairs This project will replace the concrete ramps at the City Dock $ 125,000.00 This project takes appropriate steps to ensure the safety of both private citizens that utilize the Ramps during the Dipnet Fishery as well as commercial fisherman that may use the Ramps when putting boats in/out for the season. The tides and weather have taken their toll over the years. This project will allow for safe continued operation of the facility.Page 2 of 3 Prepared by: P.

The greenhouse would provide indoor raised beds for individual planting as well as provide fresh vegetables for the Senior Center for home-delivered and congregate meals for senior citizens in the Kenai area. $ 38,000.00 To date $12,500 has been donated by the late Bill Osborn's family and friends to support this project to provide an opportunity for seniors in the community to participate in the increased health benefits of gardening.12Library Shelving in Children's Room This project would install low shelving along the 'glass' wall and anchored to the metal pieces there. Additional low shelves would be ordered to divide the room as needed to accommodate the collection. $ 15,000.00 When the Library Expansion Project was completed, it did not include the necessary shelving, and regular book carts have been utilized to shelve a large portion of the collection. These carts move, and it was apparent during the 2018 Anchorage Earthquake that this is not safe. All other shelving is bolted to a wall or the floor. Page 3 of 3 Prepared by: P.

PASSED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, this 18th day of December 2019. __________________________________ BRIAN GABRIEL, SR., MAYOR ATTEST: ______________________________________ Jamie Heinz, CMC, City Clerk Page 39 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council FROM: Scott Bloom, City Attorney DATE: December 5, 2019 SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2019-83 Kenai Peninsula Borough Land Selection ____________________________________________________________________________ The City operates and maintains 4th Avenue Park, which consists of a playing field, baseball backstop, and covered barbeque area. The City has maintained the Park since the 1970’s when the City obtained the property through the Borough’s foreclosure process. Originally the land was patented from the Federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to a home owners association to maintain as a park. When the home owners association failed to pay taxes on the property, it went into the Borough’s foreclosure process. The Kenai Superior Court issued the City a Clerk’s deed in 1978. BLM recorded a decision later stating that it was again the owner of the park because the transfer of ownership from the homeowner’s association to City violated a clause in the Patent from BLM to the home owners association that the property could not be transferred without consent of BLM. After recording its decision, BLM recently recorded a deed transferring the property to the State of Alaska. I have been working with BLM for a number of years and, more recently the State, to try and get title back to the City. While I believe there are potentially valid legal arguments for the City to assert that it still is the owner of the property based on the Alaska Superior Court’s Order and issuance of Clerk’s Deed, the history of this process is somewhat convoluted. In working with BLM, the State, and the Borough, I believe there is a more expeditious path forward than litigation. The Borough was granted over 150,000 acres of land to select from the State pursuant to its municipal entitlement. I understand the State and Borough Planning Department are agreeable to the Borough selecting the few acres that comprise the Park from the State and then conveying the property at no cost back to the City. This process would be de minimis in the amount of acreage the Borough has available, the State doesn’t want to maintain or be responsible for a small neighborhood park, and the City can continue to maintain this recreational opportunity for the public. Your support for this Resolution requesting the Borough select the property from the State is appreciated.

WHEREAS; on September 4, 2019, the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF) issued a press release announcing its decision to close the Silvertip Maintenance Station located near the junction of the Seward and Hope Highways, and to have the Crown Point and Girdwood maintenance stations provide services to the Silvertip region originally from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m. but extended those hours on October 24, 2019, from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m. and, WHEREAS, the Silvertip Station is in the midst of the Kenai Mountains, enabling DOT&PF to provide prompt road maintenance services in the heart of this elevated area of steep slopes and frequent curves along the Seward Highway through Turnagain Pass; and, WHEREAS, the Seward Highway is the sole roadway connection to the Kenai Peninsula Borough, home to approximately 58,522 people, and is relied on daily for travel for many purposes including access to medical services, the delivery of mail, goods and services, other business travel, and may other import purposes; and, WHEREAS, the Silvertip Station is about 25 road miles from the Girdwood Station and about 32.5 miles from the Crown point Station, which leaves a large additional expanse to be covered by these stations, and is expected to result in substantially delayed and reduced road maintenance services in the area previously covered by the Silvertip Station; and, WHEREAS, this is also expected to result in increased road closures, depending upon weather and road conditions, on this important arterial highway; and, WHEREAS, the traffic between 10 p.m. and 4 a.m. normally consists of heavy semi-trucking including doubles and carrying heavier than normal loads in order to travel at a time when most of the public is not on the road; and, WHEREAS, the Kenai Peninsula Borough has established the Eastern Peninsula Highway Emergency Service Area which coordinates the provision of volunteer emergency services along the Seward Highway and eastern portions of the Sterling Highway which under current conditions requires volunteers to put in long hours to respond to accidents and deliver injured people to medical services when needed; and, WHEREAS, this severe reduction in road maintenance will also detrimentally impact road safety by delaying the ability of emergency personnel to respond to vehicle accidents occurring within the Seward Highway corridor and then deliver injured people to the health care services they may require; and, Page 41 Resolution No. 2019-84 Page 2 of 2 _____________________________________________________________________________________ WHEREAS, the lack of maintenance during these hours will likely increase the volume of heavier commercial vehicles traveling at the same times most smaller vehicles travel, further increasing safety risks. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA: Section 1. That the City Council of Kenai Alaska, strongly urges the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities to keep the Silvertip Maintenance Station open during the upcoming winter months with personnel needed to properly maintain that section of the highway. Section 2. That copies of this resolution shall be sent to Governor Michael R. Dunleavey; John McKinnon, Commissioner DOT&PF; Wolfgang Junge, Director, Central Region, DOT&PF; Mike Lesmann, Legislative Liaison, DOT&PF; Senator Peter Micciche; Senator Gary Stevens; Representative Ben Carpenter; Representative Sarah Vance; Representative Gary Knopp; Kenai Peninsula Borough; City of Seward; City of Homer; City of Soldotna, and the Municipality of Anchorage. Section 3. That this resolution takes effect immediately upon passage. PASSED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, this 18th day of December, 2019. __________________________________ BRIAN GABRIEL, SR., MAYOR ATTEST: ______________________________________ Jamie Heinz, CMC, City Clerk Page 42 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council FROM: Glenese Pettey and Henry Knackstedt, Council Members DATE: December 12, 2019 SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2019-84 Requesting Alaska DOT and Public Facilities Keep the Silvertip Maintenance Station Open ____________________________________________________________________________ The Seward Highway is the sole roadway connection to the Kenai Peninsula Borough.

Schilling obtained special use permits for the Uptown Motel to store snow on 7,500 square feet of City property in 2018 and 2019 and has requested a similar permit for 2020. The permit fee is proposed to be $450 for the six-month period covering the months of January, February, March, April, November, and December. The permit fee of $450 was based upon a fair market value estimate of $1.50/square foot multiplied by eight percent and is the same fee that was charged in 2018 and 2019 for special use permits issued for the same location and use to Schilling. As in past years, Schilling would be required to carry adequate insurance, use the premises only for snow storage, store snow in a manner that would not limit sight lines for drivers or impact City snow clearing, and remove any trash or debris remaining after the snow has melted such that the premises are returned to their initial condition. Schilling was compliant with the terms of their special use permits during 2018 and 2019. Schilling has submitted a special use permit application for 2020 and paid the corresponding application fee. If City Council approves, City Administration would execute the special use permit attached to this memorandum. Thank you for your consideration.

The document was presented to Council by the City’s Auditors at the December 4th meeting. The FY21 Budget is now a major focus of the department with information being compiled for department heads to assist them with their budget preparation. Information for budget preparation will be distributed to City Departments in January. The Council will receive its first draft of the FY2020 budget in April. The budget calendar is being discussed and finalized this month. There is much work to be done by all City departments over the next couple of months. In conjunction with the FY21 Budget the Administration is preparing a fleet replacement plan which will provide for the scheduled replacement of General Fund vehicles. A properly designed and administered plan will provide departments with modern and efficient vehicles for completion of their daily task and provide for proper utilization of vehicles during their useful lives. The department is also preparing for a portfolio review of the Airport Land Sale and General Land Sale Permanent funds. Representatives from Alaska Permanent Capital are scheduled to present a portfolio review at the first council meeting in February. The review will included a summary of 2019 performance, the allowable transfer amount for each permanent fund, and a recommendation for establishment of 2020 asset allocations and evaluation benchmarks. Page 101 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager FROM: Jeff Tucker, Fire Chief DATE: December 10, 2019 SUBJECT: Fire Department Mid-Month Report – November ____________________________________________________________________________ In November, the department responded to 107 calls for service as compared to 131 calls in November 2018. This is a 18.3% decrease compared to November of 2018. Year to date at the end of November the department has responded to 1404 calls for service as opposed to the same time period in 2018, which saw 1342 responses.

Firefighter Scott Summers, as part of the Paramedic program at Kenai Peninsula College, has completed his field internship at Cypress Creek EMS in Spring, Texas, which is in Harris county north of Houston. All students in the paramedic programs in Alaska must do an internship out of state to complete the program. Cypress Creek EMS responds to over 45,000 calls per year so Scott had an opportunity to see his share of different EMS calls. FF Mitch Miller completed his EMT II training through the Kenai Peninsula College and is now a certified EMT II. The department also held its quarterly EMS training with our Medical Director. Firefighters Omar Thompson and Jesse Tauriainen are both working on their Driver/Operator checks offs. This entails training and performance testing on all of the department’s apparatus.

The next meeting is Monday, December 9 for the purpose of setting three goals. Once the goals are established, Michael Downs (National Park Service) will begin working on developing a concept plan to be discussed with the group. Staff assisted the Street Department in the removal of a couple problem trees adjacent to the LeeShore Center. Staff wrapped up installing winter decorations with a final stop at the Kenai Animal Control facility. The department only recorded 2 hours of sidewalk maintenance for the month of November; 0 hours maintaining ice at Daubenspeck Family Park and 0 hours grooming the Kenai Nordic Trails. Page 105 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager FROM: Elizabeth Appleby, City Planner DATE: December 10, 2019 SUBJECT: Planning and Zoning November 2019 Report ____________________________________________________________________________ Below is a summary of activity in November 2019 for the Planning and Zoning Department. Planning and Zoning Commission Agenda Items and Resolutions The Planning and Zoning Commission approved of two resolutions, discussed the Kenai Peninsula Borough private streets and gated subdivisions ordinance, and discussed the draft City of Kenai Local Hazard Mitigation Plan: • Resolution PZ2019-43 – Application for a Conditional Use Permit to operate a Gunsmithing Business, located at 1006 Inlet Woods Drive, Kenai, Alaska 99611, and further described as Lot 2A, Block 2, Inlet Woods Subdivision Moore Replat. The application was submitted by Paul N. Begins, 1006 Inlet Woods Drive, Kenai, AK 99611 • Resolution PZ2019-44 – Application for Amendment to Conditional Use Permit PZ03-32, (amended by Resolution PZ05-35 and PZ16-39 and transferred by Resolution PZ2018- 09) to remove the restriction that all fill material must originally be from the 52.5-acre site located at 2369 Beaver Loop Road, and further described as Tr. A-1, Beaver Loop Acres Addition No. 1. The application was submitted by David N. Yragui, P.O. Box 1290, Kenai, AK 99611, on behalf of Beaver Loop Sand & Gravel LLC, P.O. Box 1290, Kenai, AK 99611 • Discussion – Review of Kenai Peninsula Borough Substitute Ordinance 2019-24 - Adopting KPB 20.80, Subdivision Private Streets and Gated Subdivisions • Discussion – City of Kenai Draft Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Page 106 Page 2 of 2 Planning and Zoning Mid -Month Report Code Enforcement Two cases were opened in November 2019 for Garbage. The Planning and Zoning Department worked with Kenai Police to tag cars left overnight on the street. Night parking is prohibited on any City street between the hours of 4:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. from October 1st of each fall until May 1st of the following year, as outlined in Kenai Municipal Code 13.30.030. Draft Local Hazard Mitigation Plan A draft of the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan was available for public comment at: www.kenai.city/planning/page/draft-hazard-mitigation-plan The draft plan was submitted to the State of Alaska and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for review after incorporation of comments, including the change to prioritize erosion before wildland fire in the plan. The City may then choose to adopt the plan through a resolution by City Council. FEMA requires local governments to develop and adopt hazard mitigation plans as a condition for receiving certain types of non-emergency disaster assistance, including funding for mitigation projects. Jurisdictions must update their hazard mitigation plans and re-submit them for FEMA approval every five years to maintain eligibility. My best estimate of the timing of a resolution to adopt the plan is currently March 2020.

Page 2 of 2 WWTP WAS Pumps The Cook Inlet Regional Citizens Advisory Council (CIRCAC) met for two days in Anchorage with a full agenda and a look to the future and our 30th Anniversary in the Inlet. I’m pleased to share a summary of what transpired. On December 5, the Board reviewed our Strategic Plan prioritfes and accomplishments to date, including the Cook Inlet Navigatf on Risk Assessment, creatfon of a Harbor Safety Committee and Cook Inlet’s first Harbor Safety Plan, completfon of the Cook Inlet Pipeline and Infrastructure Assessment, online accessibility of ShoreZone, habitat and mapping data, and the Cook Inlet Respo nse Tool, among other things. Looking ahead and coinciding with our 30 years of keeping Cook Inlet oil free, the State of Alaska Department of Environmental Conservatfon is currently reviewing Alaska’s statutes and regulatfons pertaining to oil spill preventfon and response. Our revised Strategic Plan reflects our commitment to providing leadership in the oversight and revi ew of any actfons that could impact State and potentfally Federal oil spill response planning regulatfons. Among our special guests, on Friday, December 6, we were pleased to welcome Commissioner Jason Brune with the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservatfon (DEC) for an in -depth discussion of the department’s public scoping and regulatory review process currently under way. Details of the discussion follow. Public Comments/Special Guests Captain Sean McKenzie, US Coast Guard, spoke of preparatfons for winter ice season. He commended CIRCAC for our work through the Harbor Safety Committee, which took ownership of winter ice guidelines. He also commended CIRCAC ’s work with Alaska Vocatfonal Technical Center (AVTEC) to improve navigatfon safety through simulator training, and for creatfng and expanding the Cook Inlet Ice Camera Network. Jonathan Schick, of the State Pipeline Coordinator’s Office, informed the board that Tom Stokes has been appointed Director of the Division of Oil and Gas. Chris Grundland is the new Ex Officio to the Board. The Division is working on a supplement to the C ook Inlet area-wide lease sale that will stretch the boundary to the Iniskin Peninsula. He said maps will be posted online when read y. Kevin Reeve, Ex Officio for the Department of Homeland Security, invited the Council to a workshop on December 17, to review what will be needed in FEMA Region X in the event of another earthquake. Lt. Bart Buesseler, Natfonal Oceanic and Atmospheric Administratfon (NOAA), reported that by 2025, NOAA will no longer be printfng paper charts. They will contfnue providing electronic chart systems and print-on-demand charts, and plan to contfnue providing free access to the electronic chart data. They are working with the USCG to address gaps and a decision has not ye t been made regarding requirements for paper charts on-board vessels. Linda Swiss, Prince William Sound RCAC (PWSRCAC), stressed the Council’s appreciatfon for the two organizatfons working together regarding concerns with ADEC’s regulatory oversight project. Robert Archibald, PWSRCAC, reiterated concerns and his hopes for a consensus. Lt. Commander Jon Dale, US Coast Guard 17th District, representfng Admiral Bell, said he is working with CIRCAC on his 5th recertfficatfon and thanked CIRCAC’s Director of Administratfon, Jerry Rombach, for making his job easier. Next year ’s recertfficatfon will be open for public comment, which happens every three years. He also noted that the USCG marine inspecto r is working on the marine charts issue. Board Director Rob Lindsey advocated for the contfnued requirement and availability of pa per charts. Update from the Board of Directors Cook Inlet Regional Citizens Advisory Council John Williams, President, Representing the City of Kenai Hilcorp/Harvest Alaska Presentation to Executive Director Lori Nelson and Rich Novkaski of Hilcorp/Harvest Alaska presented CIRCAC’s Executfve Director with a life ring from Christy Lee Platiorm at Drift River, commemoratfng the decommissioning of the Drift River Oil Terminal. CIRCAC has long advocated for the terminal’s removal and a Cross Inlet Pipeline to reduce the risks of oil tankers transitfng the inlet as well as those risks posed by terminal’s proximity to the Mt. Redoubt volcano. Through the course of its operatfon, just under 1 billion barrels of oil were shipped out of the terminal. President John Williams commended Hilcorp for its commitment and work removing the facility. (At right: Hilcorp/Harvest Alask a Lori Nelson and Rich Novkaski surprised CIRCAC Exec. Dir. Mike Munger with a life ring from the Christy Lee Platiorm) Welcome from the Mayor Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz welcomed the board to the city and advocated for more maritfme resources in Anchorage. He also provided an update on the Port of Alaska. During the 2018 earthquake, the Port ’s pilings unraveled and left the Port structurally infirm. He said the Port of Alaska is a story in 4 parts; petroleum cement, cargo docks, military strategic comp onent and the clean-up of Port Expansion Project. The cement terminal should be completed by 2021. Cargo docks are a work in progress (do not have 100% design) and involves reconfiguring what the shippers want. Constructfon season is short and the port is in a seismically actfve area. The Port of Alaska will cost about $1 billion spread out over 75 years. Commissioner Jason Brune Commissioner Jason Brune joined the Board for an hours-long discussion of DEC’s regulatory review process. The DEC announced on October 15 that it is seeking public input on oil spill preventfon and response regulatfons (i.e., rules issued by DEC) an d underlying statutes (i.e., laws passed by the Alaska legislature). So far, this is just in the scoping phase, meaning that DE C has not yet proposed any specific changes. After DEC receives public input, it may begin a formal rulemaking process to change the existfng rules. If so, there will be an opportunity for the public to review and offer comment on the proposed rule changes. Mr. Munger summarized the Board’s firsthand experiences and involvement with the Exxon Valdez oil spill, and CIRCAC’s concerns that the Department’s process was lacking specificity. He noted that the consistency with which the regulations are applied is more problematic for industry than the regulations themselves. Commissioner Brune engaged in a productive discussion with the Board, and responded to their specific concerns and questions. The Board asked for more specific information about the regulations changes under consideration and additional opportunities for public involvement. The Board also urged the Commissioner to ensure that any proposed changes do not weaken protections that safeguard the marine environment. Based on experiences and lessons learned from the Exxon Valdez, Alaskans expect that regulations be commensurate with the risks of a catastrophic spill. From subsistence and food security to commercial fisheries and tourism, clean waters and coasts are vital to the state, and DEC should not dilute protectfons. The Directors urged DEC to prioritfze strengthening protectfon of the marine environment and adjacent coastal areas through preventfon, which is more effectfve tha n response. Board members also expressed concern with DEC staffing and budget challenges, which could hinder its ability to conduct a neutral review and assessment of comments from the oil industry. Additfonally, CIRCAC encourages the Department to prioritfze staff training in Contfngency Plan review for consistency and to eliminate bureaucracy. The Board noted that industry has successfully complied with the laws, which have kept oil out of our waters and off our beac hes, for 30 years; eliminatfng half of these regulatfons is beyond belief. The Council asked for transparency from industry. Final ly, the Council committed their expertfse and resources to assist the State throughout the review process. The Council is proactfvely encouraging comments and identffying areas of compromise, and what we believe must remain unchanged. Commissioner Brune assured the Council that the Department was in listening mode and had no desire to roll-back whatsoever the environmental protectfons in place. He said the scoping process is based on generalitfes he has heard, including the contentf on that C-Plans are not based in regulatfons and statutes and “keep getting bigger.” He committed to making the process fully transparent and noted that all comments are available online. The Commissioner wants the regulatory community ’s recommendatfons for changes to improve the process and will also consider adding regulatfons or statutes to make them better. The Commissioner extended the public comment period to March 16, 2020, at CIRCAC’s request. There will be another public process and opportunity for the RCACs to comment on any proposed changes. Commissioner Brune, also addressed the issue of the department’s staffing, expertfse and funding. Staff turnover is at 21% annually and employee retentfon is a priority. The state has a money problem and the Department has 30% to 40% smaller budget than four years ago. Therefore, the review process will take longer. Preliminary review should be finished in August or September 2020, depending on comments received. The Commissioner committed to giving both RCACs an update. Any statutory changes will most likely happen during the 2021 Legislature. Because of these issues, the review process will take longer.

Sue Saupe, introduced the next two speakers to provide informatfon about their organizatfons that CIRCAC actfvely partners with on oil fate and effects studies. They were in town to host an Arctfc oil spill trajectory modeling workshop. Dr. Lisa DiPinto, Senior Scientfst, NOAA Office of Response and Restoratfon and lead scientfst for Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) for Deepwater Horizon, described new research, including detectfon of oil thickness and emulsion mixtures using remote sensing platiorms. Dr. Nancy Kinner, UNH Coastal Response Research Center/Center for Spills in the Environment (CSE), University of New Hampshire— explained the history of the Coastal Response Resource Center (CRRC) at the University of New Hampshire. CRRC has 5 -year grants with NOAA and Parallel Center for Non-NOAA Funding. UNH has top marine centers in country because it has no oil and no gas. Never censored by government; independent, honest broker. Tim Robertson, NUKA Research, presented the Preliminary Expert Recommendatfons on the Cook Inlet Pipeline Integrity Assessment which have been shared with Cook Inlet operators and DEC. He commended the panel of experts for their amazing understanding of regulatory regime, both natfonally and worldwide. The Panel identffied hazards, developed scenarios, and developed preliminary recommendatfons for:  General risks  External and Internal Corrosion  Incorrect operatfons  Manufacturing defects  Welding/fabricatfon defects  Equipment failure  Third party/mechanical failure and damage  Weather/outside forces Details can be found in the online presentatfon. The final report should be completed within the next 45 to 60 days. Executive Director and Staff Reports Mike Munger—Mr. Munger commended staff and, in partfcular, Sue Saupe, CIRCAC’s Director of Science and Research, for putting CIRCAC on the map as a leader in scientffic research for Cook Inlet. Mr. Munger attributed the strength of this RCAC to the longevity of its Board members and extensive experience. Graham Wood (l) and Com. Jason Brune Mr. Munger also expressed his appreciatfon to the Commissioner for attending the meetfng and his interactfon with the Council . He urged the Board to pay partfcular attentfon to the situatfon as it unfolds. He has seen comments from Hilcorp and Marathon and none of their comments recommend statutory changes. Staff Reports—Highlights (full reports are available in Council packets online). Sue Saupe, Environmental Monitoring —reported that CIRCAC's comments this year on HIlcorp's marine mammal take permit included requests that passive acoustfc monitoring be a requirement of the permit, along with other monitoring. While the pe rmit did not require this, there were efforts by scientfsts to work with NOAA and others during the October seismic work to deploy a series of acoustfc recording devises and conduct zooplankton sampling. Ms. Saupe said this year there were reports of a significant western range extension of Macrocystis kelp. The EMC (Environmental Monitoring Committee) has funds to leverage a project re -surveying CIRCAC's research sites in the Kodiak area and to look at the kelp's genetfcs and physical environment. She urged the Board and Committee members to attend the Alaska Marine Science Symposium in January, and the Alaska Forum on the Environment in February, to see the breadth of research conducted in Alaska's marine environment or the Alaska Forum o n the Environment in February. Both take place in Anchorage. Jerry Rombach, Director of Administration —the process for board electfons and appointments is underway, including seats representfng Alaska Natfve Organizatfons, Environmental Groups, Kodiak Island Borough, and Kenai Peninsula Borough. CIRCAC is also acceptfng applicatfons for two scholarships in 2020.
