This volunteer organization with over 750 members statewide, including approximately 140 aircrew, 255 cadets and 464 emergency responders provided approximately $2.6 million value in volunteer hours in 2018 (latest available figures). For the first time in recent history, the state did not provide funding to the CAP in FY 2020. The CAP has a long cooperative relationship with the state based in part on the state’s obligation to provide search and rescue services. The minimum funding request from the CAP of $184,300 would cover insurance premiums, utility costs and emergency roof repair for the organization, allowing it to continue operations without compromising its response time and mission effectiveness. With over seventy years of presence on the Kenai Peninsula, with a home on our airport since the 1950’s, the CAP is an important partner in our City. I respectfully request your support for this resolution. Page 21 Kenai City Council - Regular Meeting Page 22 of 238 February 19, 2020 Item Attachment Documents: 5.

Wayfair, states and municipalities are able to enforce sales tax collection and remittance on out of state, or remote sellers, selling goods and services in the tax jurisdiction with a taxable connection other than a physical presence. To comply with the Wayfair decision, municipalities in Alaska recognized the need to join together to form a single-level statewide sales tax administration. This is because the Wayfair decision emphasized the importance of South Dakota’s sales tax administration that allowed remote sellers to interface with one general sales tax code for the whole state and one administrative entity, as opposed to having to interface with numerous taxing jurisdictions within each state. The City Council authorized the City to join the Alaska Remote Seller Sales Tax Commission pursuant to Resolution 2019-72. As a member of the Commission, with a seat on the Board, the City has worked with the Commission to adopt bylaws, agreements for commission members, various policies, approve contracts for third party services and adopt a uniform remote sellers sales tax code. The uniform remote sellers sales tax code streamlines remote seller sales tax code provisions from the many different municipal taxing authorities in the state that wish to participate and collect sales tax on remote sales. The Kenai Peninsula Borough is adopting these streamlined code provisions through Ordinance 2020-03. The City has previously adopted by reference the Borough’s sales tax code, except where specifically exempted, and through this Resolution affirms its intent to adopt amendments and new code provisions adopted by the Borough related to remote sales, effectively bringing the uniform remote sellers sales tax code into the City. While this affirmation is perhaps not necessary based on existing code; KMC 7.10.050- Borough Sales Tax Adopted by Reference, I believe it is prudent for the City to Page 25 Page 2 of 2 Resolution No. 2020-09 legislatively acknowledge and support the significant change to Borough code that will affect the City. In addition to adopting a uniform tax code, the Commission has also developed a single-level statewide sales tax administration. This has been done through a contract with the Alaska Municipal League. The Alaska Municipal League is providing administrative support to the Commission and has in turn contracted with two software companies (contracts ratified by the Commission Board) to facilitate the collection, remittance and enforcement of municipal sales tax at a single level. TTR is providing geographic information system technology and other services while MUNIRevs is providing a single filing and remittance system. The Commission has agreed to pay these two software companies a percentage of sales collected at varying scales. The Commission has also authorized a one-time fixed fee to TTR and reimbursement of direct cost plus 8% overhead to the Alaska Municipal League. All these costs are capped. It is my understanding that the costs to the City for participating in this program are competitive and justified. As more municipalities join the commission and collected amounts increase, costs to the City are designed to go down. In order to facilitate this process whereby the Commission administers the single level statewide sales tax program this Resolution authorizes the Commission to implement, administer and enforce the uniform remote sellers sales tax code on behalf of the City. In large part through the Alaska Municipal League’s leadership, many municipalities in Alaska have come together to create this relatively complicated program from scratch in a very short period of time. If everything goes well, the City should see its first taxes collected and remitted in March. I do anticipate there will be more work to do, possible amendments to code and agreements, and there may be some administrative work at the local or Borough level.

BRIAN GABRIEL SR., MAYOR Page 28 Resolution No. 2020-10 Page 2 of 2 ATTEST: ______________________________________ Jamie Heinz, CMC, City Clerk Approved by Finance: ___________ Page 29 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager FROM: Scott Curtin, Public Works Director DATE: February 11, 2020 SUBJECT: Resolution 2020-10 – Budget Transfer for General Fund Buildings The Buildings Maintenance Department Staff responds to Work Order Requests received from across all City Departments. When not completing a Work Order, staff is conducting preventive maintenance activities and coordinating routine contract service items. Items like elevator, fire extinguisher, sprinkler and boiler inspections are examples. This fiscal year $35,000 was budgeted for Repair and Maintenance items. We have obligated approximately $33,000 of the available funds to date to address the City’s requested service needs. This $15,000 Budget Transfer will allow the Department to continue to make repairs when needed, as opposed to deferring to the next fiscal year, and potentially risking additional costs due to lingering problems. Council will continue to be informed of expenditures through the monthly purchase order reports. Council’s support is respectfully requested. Thank you for your consideration.

(Vice Mayor Molloy and Council Member Navarre) MOTION: Council Member Navarre MOVED to adopt Resolution No. 2020-05 and requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT. Vice Mayor Molloy SECONDED the motion. Mayor Gabriel opened for public hearing. Tammy Willis spoke in favor of the resolution noting incidents that had happened to her. She also noted that, in her case, the FBI had become involved and were investigating the incidents as hate crimes after the news picked up her story but that local police and Troopers were not able to investigate as a hate crimes because sexual identity and sexual orientation were not listed as aggravators in state law. She added the resolution told the LGBTQ community the City wouldn’t tolerate hate crimes and were showing leadership for treating others with dignity and respect. Audrey Gifford thanked Vice Mayor Molloy and Council Member Navarre for attending the town hall meeting. She noted approximately 3.7% of Americans identified as LGBTQ and based on the population of the City of Kenai that equaled about 288. She also pointed out that orientation ranked as third highest in hate crimes with the first two being considered aggravators for hate crimes. Leslie Byrd suggested the population of LGBTQ in the community was likely higher than previously suggested. Suggested there was nothing for anyone to lose except time to argue it. She also noted people act in reflection of their shared values and asked that the Council lead in a positive and inclusive manner. Leslie also noted that in some laws, premeditation was more egregious, even if it ended in the same result due to the state of mind of the offender. Leslie Page 36 City of Kenai Council Meeting Page 6 of 11 February 5, 2020 added that some believed it wasn’t necessary to add sexual orientation and sexual identity to the laws but noted the United States weren’t there yet and so protected classes were needed. April testified in favor of the resolution noting she moved from the East Coast to Kenai to be safe; adding that she would be fired as a pastor where she came from, that her child would be bullied, and that she still does not feel safe holding her wife’s hand in public. She added that being called derogatory names was hard as was moving 7,000 miles from home to be a pastor because that was what she was called to do. She added that the gas line to her vehicle had been cut since she has been in this community. Susan Smalley spoke in favor of the Resolution noting that she was mad that this action was needed speaking to message crimes and explaining that was sending a message to the recipient that they were not safe in the community and was done by cowards. She noted people in the community had their heads in the sand and noted she was an ally; a heterosexual living in in a climate which came from folks sitting back and allowing the message crimes to happen. Ms. Smalley noted that House Bill 198 was a way to get to a place where the LGBTQ community would be treated with dignity adding that hearts couldn’t be changed but behavior could. Rebecca Heinsberger empathized with what Ms. Willis endured but spoke against passage suggesting all people should be receiving the same protection. She suggested that there being special classes didn’t seem fair and noting her situation as an abused wife didn’t qualify for any of the aggravation categories. Barbara Jedlicki noted she was grieved and saddened by how people were being treated in the community and adding that she, too, was a victim of an ex-husband, noting the piece of paper protection order sometimes didn’t stop them. She spoke in favor of everyone being protected but spoke against dedicating classes suggesting it was a “Pandora’s Box” and getting out of hand. There being no one else wishing to be heard, the public hearing was closed. The City Attorney provided clarification that the resolution supported House Bill 198 which proposed the addition of two aggravating factors to statute. He added that criminal charges have presumptive sentencing guidelines, which were not to be deviated from too much. He noted there were thirty-six aggravating factors altogether, which included domestic violence, and those listed in the statute this House Bill was amending. He also noted this statute amendment would bring the state statute in line with federal laws making them federal hate crimes because of the victim’s gender identity or sexual orientation, race, creed, religion, etc. The recent town hall meeting, not seeing the harm or hurt in the community, the hurt, the town meeting being an opportunity for those that were hurt to speak, the fear of speaking, being targeted, the aggravator addition being a first step providing tolerance and equity until another bill brought forth were topics discussed. New information, the issue of public safety, testimony from the LGBTQ community and allies, wanting people to feel safe in places in Kenai, Kenai’s cooperative relationship with other law enforcement agencies were additional topics discussed. Clarification was provided that crimes against the LGBTQ community were not considered hate crimes in Alaska statute and many aggravators were in statutes based on the crime committed. Clarification was provided that if KPD were to be a part in a hate crime, they would pass on to the Page 37 City of Kenai Council Meeting Page 7 of 11 February 5, 2020 state prosecutor if it was felt a class or aggravator was involved and it was up to the prosecutor to pass the aggravator information on to the FBI. It was suggested the House Bill fell short in what the LGBTQ community needed but was a step in the right direction. Given all the other considerations or aggravators elsewhere sexual identity or sexual orientation not being seen as adding special treatment, freedom from fear, the matter being a question of how to do it, speaking as community leaders, crimes often not being premeditated, crimes being generational, everyone’s right to be treated equally, and prosecution to the fullest extent of the law were additional topics discussed. VOTE: YEA: Knackstedt, Glendening, Molloy, Pettey, Navarre NAY: Gabriel, Peterkin MOTION PASSED. 6. Resolution No. 2020-06 - Designating the Investment and Allocation Plan for the City’s Permanent Funds and Establishing Appropriate Benchmarks to Measure Performance for Calendar Year 2020.

WHEREAS, Firefighter Scott Summers recently completed his paramedic certification program; and, WHEREAS, as part of the certification process, Firefighter Scott Summers expended approximately $20,000 of his own funds and used approximately 336 hours of annual leave to attend a paramedic internship at Cypress Creek EMS in Houston, Texas from October 2, 2019 through November 14, 2019; and, WHEREAS, the City benefits from having certified paramedics in the Fire Department providing a higher level of service; and, WHEREAS, as a certified paramedic, Firefighter Summers receives additional compensation; and, WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the City to reimburse Firefighter Scott Summers leave account, which he used to attend the paramedic internship; a period of time in which 336 hours of annual leave were used; and, WHEREAS, an ordinance is necessary to accomplish this as the City Code does not contain a specific method to accomplish such reimbursement of leave time. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, as follows: Section 1. Form: That this is a non-code ordinance. Section 2. Authorizing the Reimbursement of Leave: That the City Manager is authorized to enter into an agreement to reimburse 336 hours of annual leave utilized by Firefighter Scott Summers for attending a paramedic internship program over a period of three years.

BRIAN GABRIEL SR., MAYOR ATTEST: ___________________________________ Jamie Heinz, CMC, City Clerk Introduced: February 19, 2020 Enacted: March 4, 2020 Effective: *, 2020 Page 76 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager FROM: Jeff Tucker, Fire Chief DATE: February 11, 2020 SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3109-2020 – Reimburse Annual Leave ____________________________________________________________________________ The purpose of this memo is to provide additional information in support of the referenced ordinance. Firefighter Scott Summers participated in a pilot offering of the Paramedic program through the Kenai Peninsula College. What was unique about this program is that it allowed fulltime EMT III’s to enroll without the perquisites typically required for the program and allowed the student to complete a quarter of their internship at their home department. This reduced the leave that a full-time employed EMT III would be required to take to complete the program. The program consisted of classroom sessions, ride-a-longs, labs, hospital clinical rotations and culminated with a 6 week field internship. The field internship took place at Cypress Creek EMS in Houston, Texas. Firefighter Summers spent nearly $20,000 out of pocket for the 1,600 hour course and utilized 336 hours of personal leave time. Firefighter Summers has completed the program and as of January 14th, 2020 is a Nationally Registered Paramedic. Kenai Fire Department firefighters are not required to become paramedics and are not eligible for a leave of absence with pay under KMC 23.40.060 to attend paramedic school since it is not a requirement of their position. However, in recognition of professional development, personal time, and effort of the individual to achieve the same, a recognition entitlement is paid to Fire Department employees who obtain a paramedic certification at the rate of $1,500 per year, which is only $500 more per year than the employee would receive as qualification pay as an EMT III. Reimbursing leave taken to attend paramedic is typical of what other similarly-situated departments are doing nation-wide. Based upon the recommendation of Fire Chief Jeff Tucker, the attached Ordinance provides for the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Scott Summers to be reimbursed for the leave he utilized to attend paramedic training in equal Page 77 Page 2 of 2 Ordinance No. 3109 - 2020 reimbursements over a period of three years. Should Firefighter Summers employment with the City end prior to the reimbursement being complete, the reimbursement would not continue. If City Council enacts Ordinance 3109-2020, the City would reimburse Firefighter Summers for the 336 hours of personal leave time over a 3 year period. Thank you for your consideration.

WHEREVER FEASIBLE, DATA AS SET FORTH IN ATS 272, RECORDED IN THE KENAI RECORDING DISTRICT AS 76-179 SHALL BE USED. WHERE ADDITIONAL DATA IS REQUIRED THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES SHALL GOVERN: (A) DETERMINING THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE. (1) IN THE CASE OF U.S. SURVEY WHICH ABUTS THE TIDELANDS, SUCH U.S. SURVEY BEING MADE PRIOR TO THE DATE OF STATEHOOD, THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO BE EITHER THE MEANDER LINES ESTABLISHED ON THE SEAWARD SIDE OF THE U.S. SURVEY OR THE LINE AS DEFINED UNDER SECTION 2(S) OF THESE REGULATIONS, WHICHEVER IS THE LOWER. (2) FOR TIDELANDS SURVEYS ABUTTING ANY U.S. SURVEY MADE AFTER THE DATE OF STATEHOOD OR IN ANY LOCATION WHERE NO UPLANDS SURVEY EXISTS, THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE SHALL BE DETERMINED BY USING U.S.C. & G.S. BENCH MARKS (OR ANY OTHER BENCH MARKS WHICH HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED FROM THAT SOURCE), AND TIDE TABLE DATUM. THE UPLAND BOUNDARY NEED NOT FOLLOW THIS LINE IN ITS ENTIRE EXACTNESS, BUT MAY FOLLOW IN A “MEANDER” OR “AVERAGE” LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE. EACH END OF THE BOUNDARY SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED ON THE ELEVATION OF MEAN HIGH TIDE. PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT WHERE THE TRUE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE HAS BEEN ALTERED BY FILL OR ARTIFICIAL ACCRETION, THE LINE OF HIGH TIDE AS IT EXISTED PRIOR TO SUCH ALTERATION SHALL GOVERN.

IN SOME CASES, SUCH AS SALT OR MUD FLAT AREAS WHERE THE AVERAGE GRADE OF THE BENCH IS TEN PERCENT (10%) OR LESS AND DETERMINING THE ELEVATION OF THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE COULD CREATE A LENGTHY HORIZONTAL DISTANCE, THE CITY COUNCIL MAY REQUIRE THAT THE TRUE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE BE ESTABLISHED, REGARDLESS OF THE DISTANCE FROM A KNOWN BENCH MARK. (B) METHOD OF ESTABLISHING SIDE BOUNDARY LINES. (1) IN FIXING THE SIDE BOUNDARY LINES, THE GENERAL RULES OF EXTENDING RIPARIAN BOUNDARY LINES, AS OUTLINED BY SUCH AUTHORS AS RAYNER, CLARK OR BROWN, SHALL BE FOLLOWED. IN THE EVENT THAT ACTUAL OCCUPANCY DOES NOT MATCH THE RIPARIAN BOUNDARIES, THE SURVEY SHALL BE MADE TO INCLUDE THE OCCUPANT’S HOLDINGS AND NOT TO ENCROACH ON THE ADJOINING OCCUPANT. 11.15.130 PROCEDURE ON FINAL PLAT. (A) THE FINAL PLAT SHALL CONFORM SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE PRELIMINARY LAYOUT AS APPROVED BY THE COMMISSION.

The City Council realizes that only a limited area of tidelands bordering navigable waters are available within the City of Kenai and which are owned by the City of Kenai. It would be in the public interest to insure that these lands do not pass out of community control at least to the extent that the public would not be deprived of harbor services at reasonable rates in the future. Therefore, areas of City-owned tidelands which are developable for the bona fide public purposes as enumerated below shall be leased only with the following covenants defined to insure public use and access at reasonable rates.

(b) Before lessee may conduct any activities which fall under this general criteria, but are not specifically mentioned above, lessee must obtain written consent of the City. 11.20.710 Controlled [A]Access. Lessee, for its own protection, may construct or install fences, gates, or other types of barriers to restrict access to portions of the demised premises that are not designated for a public use and may provide reasonable controls for access to public use areas to allow for security for such areas while insuring reasonable public access. Reasonable public access includes accommodations made for fishing operations during fishing season. Any Controlled Access measures shall be indicated on the Lessee’s Development Plan. 11.20.720 Use [C]Charges. Lessee shall make reasonable and non-discriminatory charges to the public for use of any of its facilities. [IT IS EXPRESSLY RECOGNIZED THAT LESSEE IS ENTITLED TO A MARGIN OF PROFIT, WHICH SHOULD BE FAIR, REASONABLE, AND COMPETITIVE, AND THAT CITY WILL COOPERATE TO THIS END IN CONSIDERING RATES AND FEES.

ANY PERSON, FIRM, OR CORPORATION WHO WITHOUT WRITTEN AUTHORITY FROM THE CITY REMOVES ROCK, GRAVEL, OR OTHER MATERIAL FROM THE LANDS OWNED BY THE CITY WITHOUT THE EXPRESS CONSENT OF THE CITY SHALL BE DEEMED GUILTY OF A VIOLATION. ANY CRIMINAL ACTION TAKEN AGAINST SUCH PERSON SHALL NOT PRECLUDE THE INSTITUTION OF CIVIL PROCEEDINGS BY THE CITY. 11.20.760 REMOVAL NOT AUTHORIZED BY LEASE. NO DEED OR LEASE GRANTED BY THE CITY TO ANY PERSON SHALL CONTAIN TERMS OR BE CONSTRUED AS GRANTING ANY RIGHT TO REMOVE MATERIAL FROM CITY LANDS.] [11.20.770 DISPOSITION OF RIGHTS BY COUNCIL. IN RECOGNITION THAT CONDITIONS MAY EXIST FROM TIME TO TIME WHEREBY USE OF SUCH LANDS AND THE MATERIAL COMPRISING THE SAME MAY BE BENEFICIAL TO THE PUBLIC INTEREST AND PROMOTE THE PROGRESS AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE CITY, APPLICATIONS FOR THE USE THEREOF MAY BE RECEIVED AND CONSIDERED BY THE COMMISSION, PROVIDING SUCH APPLICATIONS FULLY DISCLOSE TO THE CITY ALL MATERIAL FACTS AND PLANS FOR THE PROPOSED USE. SUCH APPLICATIONS SHALL BE CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OF THE CITY AND REFERRED TO THE CITY PLANNING COMMISSION FOR ITS RECOMMENDATIONS.

(a) Notwithstanding other provisions of the City’s Code of Ordinances [T]the annual minimum rental rate for tideland leases used primarily for shore fisheries shall be an annual fee as set forth in the City’s schedule of fees adopted by the City Council. However, should the State of Alaska set an annual lease rate higher than that established by the City for similar tideland leases for shore fisheries on land owned by the State, the City may amend the annual rental to a rate equal to that charged by the State of Alaska. [ANY MONEY OWED PURSUANT TO KMC 11.20.150 ] SHALL BE IN ADDITION TO THE ANNUAL MINIMUM SET FORTH ABOVE. (B) NEITHER KMC 11.20.160 NOR KMC 11.20.620(A) SHALL APPLY TO TIDELAND LEASES FOR SHORE FISHERIES.

The City Council hereby declares that it would have enacted the remainder of this ordinance even without such part, provision, or application. Section 3. Effective Date: That pursuant to KMC 1.15.070(f), this ordinance shall take effect 30 days after enactment. ENACTED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, this * day of *, 2020. BRIAN GABRIEL SR., MAYOR ATTEST: ___________________________________ Jamie Heinz, CMC, City Clerk Introduced: February 19, 2020 Enacted: *, 2020 Effective: *, 2020 Page 135 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council FROM: Council Members Jim Glendening and Robert Peterkin DATE: February 10, 2020 SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3106-2020 – Amending Title 11 – Harbor and Harbor Facilities The Harbor Commission, and a subcommittee, has been reviewing Title 11 of the Kenai Municipal Code to recommend changes that more appropriately reflect the Harbor Commissions current functions, relationship with other commissions, and desires moving forward. This process is especially relevant now, with the enactment of Ordinance No. 3072-2019 (Substitute) which repealed and re-enacted the City’s approach to the managing City lands. Part of this approach was to bring certain harbor lands, along with airport lands outside the airport reserve into the City’s general fund land sales and leasing process to establish a consistent Citywide approach. Additionally relevant to revisions of Title 11, many procedures and processes described in the Title are no longer applicable because they address the transfer of certain tidelands from the State of Alaska to the City on January 6, 1977 and the adjudication of preference rights or commercial fishermen, much of which had to be accomplished by October 6, 1981. It appears that when the Harbor Code was originally enacted, the City had a vision for a harbor that did not come to fruition. Further, many current code provisions address specific conveyance restrictions on specific parcels of land that do not broadly apply to all harbor lands. These specific restrictions are carried forward in the City’s land management plan and do not need to remain codified. Rather than retain old code provisions that are no longer applicable or applied, we recommend removing the old language and addressing changes or new plans for the harbor on a go forward basis. The proposed changes will not limit the City’s ability to move forward with any new plans or projects, however new code provisions may be appropriate to address any significant changes in harbor usage. The Harbor Commission and a subcommittee formed especially to review Title 11 have put considerable time and effort into revising the code and strategizing a path forward so the Commission can be of greatest service to the City. The code revisions in this Ordinance incorporate the recommended revisions from the Harbor Commission and its subcommittee, Page 136 Page 2 of 2 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 along with other proposed changes based on the enactment of Ordinance No. 3072-2019 (Substitute) and continued relevance of other sections of code recommended by the City Attorney. We ask that this Ordinance be referred to the Harbor Commission upon introduction. Your consideration is appreciated. Page 137 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council FROM: Scott Bloom, City Attorney DATE: February 10, 2020 SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3106-2020 – Amending Title 11 – Harbor and Harbor Facilities Below is a sectional analysis of the code changes recommended in Ordinance 3106- 2020. Comments are provided in red. In general, many of the provisions are recommended to be deleted for three main reasons: 1) because they address specific tasks that were temporal in nature and were completed over three decades ago; 2) they provide a process for leasing lands that are already described in Chapter 22.05- Disposition of City Lands; or 3) they contain lease provisions that are now contained in the City’s standard lease form approved by Council. With regard to the first reason, I don’t think the City’s municipal code should contain provisions that are only relevant for a relatively short periods of time. Removing these items will reduce clutter within the code, improve readability and clarity. A record will be kept and is available should any of these removed issues become relevant again. As to the second reason, the City Council recently approved significant amendments to the City’s Lands Code, including its leasing provisions which now apply to harbor lands. The lease provisions in Title 11 should be removed as they are inconsistent with Chapter 22 and recent practices of the City. Finally, as to the third reason, maintaining fairly specific contract language in code, in this case specific lease provisions, makes the City inflexible as a business partner and makes it difficult to address unique situations in a timely and efficient manner. I support the removal of these provisions from Title 11. Page 138 Page 2 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 Title 11 HARBOR AND HARBOR FACILITIES Chapters: 11.05 Harbor Master 11.10 Harbor Commission 11.15 Tidelands 11.20 Leasing of Tidelands Chapter 11.05 HARBOR MASTER Sections: 11.05.010 Harbor Master. 11.05.020 Harbor [D]Defined. 11.05.030 Harbor [R]Regulations.

The Harbor Master, shall be the Public Works Director. The Harbor Master shall be the chief administrator of the harbor and its facilities. He or she shall have all powers and duties prescribed by ordinance and the regulations and rates prescribed by the City Manager. In addition, insofar as it is appropriate, shall have all powers and duties and rates prescribed by the City Manager, subject to approval by the Council; and, in addition, insofar as it is appropriate, shall have all powers and duties imposed upon harbor masters, port directors, and administrative heads of harbors and ports by Federal or State law. No Changes 11.05.020 Harbor [D]Defined. (House Keeping) The harbor shall embrace all that portion of the Kenai River located within the City of Kenai, including all tide and submerged lands, whether filled or unfilled, situated below the line of mean high tide, as may be leased from the State of Alaska. Page 139 Page 3 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 11.05.030 Harbor [R]Regulations. (House Keeping) The City Manager is hereby empowered, subject to change by the Council, to make such rules and regulations required for the operation of the harbor, not in conflict with the provisions of this Code, and to establish the fees, rates, and charges for the billing and collections for the support of the harbor, and no person shall fail to comply with any such rule or regulation. [11.05.040 PERMIT FOR TERMINAL OR TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES. (A) ALL LESSEES, OWNERS, OR OCCUPANTS OF PROPERTY WITHIN THE HARBOR OR CONTIGUOUS TO IT WHO WISH TO CONSTRUCT OR OPERATE TERMINAL OR TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES OF ANY KIND THEREIN, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DOCKS AND WAREHOUSES, SHALL APPLY TO THE LANDSCAPING/SITE PLAN REVIEW BOARD FOR A PERMIT]. APPLICATION THEREFOR SHALL BE MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATIONS DESCRIBED IN KMC 14.25, ENTITLED “LANDSCAPING/SITE PLAN REGULATIONS,” AND SHALL BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PLAN OF THE PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION, WHICH SHALL MEET ALL STANDARDS AND REQUIREMENTS WHICH MAY BE SET FORTH BY THE COUNCIL. (B) THE APPLICANT SHALL REFER ALL PLANS OF THE TYPE OR LOCATION OF ANY PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION WHICH ARE OR MAY BE IN CONFLICT WITH THE GENERAL CITY PLAN TO THE HARBOR COMMISSION AND THE LANDSCAPING/SITE PLAN REVIEW BOARD TO DETERMINE W HETHER SUCH PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION IS IN KEEPING WITH THE OBJECTIVES OF THE GENERAL PLAN. THE DECISION OF THE LANDSCAPING/SITE PLAN REVIEW BOARD SHALL BE BINDING UNLESS APPEALED BY COUNCIL. THE BUILDING OFFICIAL MAY ISSUE PERMITS UPON SUCH TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND FOR SUCH DURATION AS IT MAY DEEM PROPER, AND NO CONSTRUCTION MAY BEGIN OR OPERATION CARRIED ON WITHOUT A PERMIT FROM THE BUILDING OFFICIAL.] This section last amended in 1990 is no longer current with the applicable procedures for landscape site plan review. There is no landscape site plan review board, nor is there a general plan for the City. We do however have a comprehensive plan. All qualifying improvements within the City are required to go through an applicable administrative site plan review process and building permit process pursuant to provision in the Planning and Zoning code. Removing this section in Title will not affect those requirements. [11.05.050 CONDITION AS TO EQUAL SERVICES AND RATES. IT SHALL BE A CONDITION OF ALL PERMITS GRANTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL THAT THE FACILITIES TO BE CON-STRUCTED AND THE SERVICES TO BE SUPPLIED IN CONNECTION WITH THEM SHALL BE MADE AVAILABLE TO ALL CARRIERS UPON EQUAL TERMS, AT EQUAL RATES, AND WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION OF ANY KIND.] The City Council no longer grants permits of this nature, I am unable to confirm if they ever have. The City Page 140 Page 4 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 can restrict property use and services provided through any deed or grant restrictions if applicable through lease requirements, grant requirements, or permits, such as ‘special use’ permits. I am uncertain of other regulatory authority imposed by the City in this regard. Through the City’s administrative process and the land management plan, any conditions necessary to be imposed on a property or activities on such property based on third party regulatory authority or title restrictions should be carried forward. [11.05.060 INVESTIGATION OF HOLDER—CANCELLATION. THE CITY COUNCIL MAY INQUIRE INTO THE MANNER IN WHICH OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE PERMITS ISSUED BY IT ARE CARRIED OUT, AND INTO THE RATE SCHEDULES AND PRACTICES OF THE PERMIT HOLDERS FOR PURPOSES OF DETERMINING WHETHER THE PROVISIONS OF THE PERMITS ARE BEING COMPLIED WITH. IT SHALL HAVE ACCESS TO BOOKS AND RECORDS AND TO TERMINAL AND TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES AS MAY BE REASONABLY NECESSARY TO ENABLE IT TO MAKE SUCH A DETERMINATION. SHOULD THE COUNCIL AT ANY TIME FIND THE PERMIT HOLDER IS NOT COMPLYING WITH THE TERMS OF HIS OR HER PERMIT, IT MAY CANCEL THE PERMIT UPON SUCH NOTICE AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH PROCEDURE AS IT MAY, BY REGULATION, PRESCRIBE.] Similar to the proceeding section, the City Council does not issue permits in this regard, nor have regulations been enacted to provide for these activities. [11.05.070 FACILITY RATES AND CHARGES. THE CITY SHALL FIX THE RATES AND CHARGES FOR THE USE OF ANY AND ALL TERMINAL OR TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES CONSTRUCTED ON PROPERTY UNDER ITS JURISDICTION, INCLUDING CHARGES ASSESSED AGAINST VESSELS, THEIR OWNERS, AGENTS OR OPERATORS WHICH LOAD OR DISCHARGE CARGO AT ANY OF THE TERMINALS WITHIN THE HARBOR AREA; CHARGES FOR BERTHAGE WHILE LOADING OR DISCHARGING CARGO; CHARGES FOR ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES IN SERVING THE CARRIER’S CHARGES FOR FREIGHT HANDLING, LOADING, UNLOADING AND WHARF DEMURRAGE RATES. SUCH RATES AND CHARGES SHALL BE JUST AND REASONABLE. THE RATES AND CHARGES SHALL BE AS SET FORTH IN THE CITY’S SCHEDULE OF FEES ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL.] The City does not fix these rates and has not regulated the contemplated industries in such a manner. The City only regulates the rates for use of its own dock facility. 11.05.080 Leasing [N]Not [P]Prohibited. (House Keeping) Nothing in this chapter or in this code of ordinances shall prohibit the City Council from leasing the docks, dock sites, and other harbor facilities to private persons, firms, and corporations. While this language is arguably not necessary, it is not harmful and I recommend it be kept. Page 141 Page 5 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 11.05.090 Use of [L]Launch [R]Ramp and [F]Float. (House Keeping) (a) The City of Kenai launching facility shall be open to the public upon reasonable terms and conditions as provided by regulation. (b) Failure to pay a boat launch fee for the City of Kenai launching facility set forth according to KMC 11.05 within one (1) hour of the retrieval of the boat or vessel from the water shall be a violation punishable by a fine of fifty dollars ($50.00). (c) It is unlawful to block access to either of the launch ramp or float facilities. “Blocking access” means leaving a boat, trailer, or vehicle upon the launch ramp or float in such a position as to prevent the launching or retrieval of boats. (d) Person blocking access to the ramp or float facilities shall be subject to a civil penalty as provided in KMC 13.05.010(b). (e) Each one (1) hour period for which the ramp or float is blocked shall be considered a separate offense for the purposes of civil penalties. I recommend this section be left in for now, however the Harbor Commission may want to address these provisions moving forward. For example, I would recommend imposing a fine for blocking the ramp that can be imposed as a minor offense as opposed to a civil penalty, which is much more difficult and costly to enforce administratively. 11.05.100 No [W]Wake [Z]Zones. (House Keeping) (a) The City Manager, subject to change by the Council, is authorized to establish no wake zones within the Kenai Harbor outside of the Kenai River Special Management Area as needed to protect public and private property, and/or public safety. (b) No wake zones may be established on a temporary or permanent basis. (c) A “no wake zone” is defined as a zone where no person may operate a boat at a speed greater than five (5) miles per hour. (d) Established no wake zones shall be marked with appropriate signage in a manner to provide reasonable public notice. (e) A violation of this section shall be punishable as provided in KMC 13.05.010. I recommend this section be left in as is. This may be an area the Harbor Commission wants to revisit moving forward to ensure it is adequately addressing concerns. Chapter 11.10 HARBOR COMMISSION Sections: 11.10.010 Duties and [P]owers. Page 142 Page 6 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 11.10.010 Duties and [P]Powers. (House Keeping) (a) The Harbor Commission shall be required to do the following: (1) Develop, adopt, alter, or revise, subject to approval by the City Council, a master plan for the physical development of harbor or port facilities for the City.

Such list shall be arranged in order of preference, with recommendations as to which projects shall be constructed in which year. (3) Make investigations regarding any matter related to City harbor facilities, tide or submerged lands. Make recommendations to the Council relative to the care, control, and development of tide and submerged lands. [(4) ACT IN THE CAPACITY AS DIRECTED AND AUTHORIZED BY A TIDELANDS ORDINANCE ADOPTED BY THE CITY.] ([5]4) Review all City leases of City-owned tide, submerged, and lands or navigable waters within the City, and as to the planned improvements proposed and make recommendations to the City Council.

WHEREVER FEASIBLE, DATA AS SET FORTH IN ATS 272, RECORDED IN THE KENAI RECORDING DISTRICT AS 76-179 SHALL BE USED. WHERE ADDITIONAL DATA IS REQUIRED THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES SHALL GOVERN: (A) DETERMINING THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE. (1) IN THE CASE OF U.S. SURVEY WHICH ABUTS THE TIDELANDS, SUCH U.S. SURVEY BEING MADE PRIOR TO THE DATE OF STATEHOOD, THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO BE EITHER THE MEANDER LINES ESTABLISHED ON THE SEAWARD SIDE OF THE U.S. SURVEY OR THE LINE AS DEFINED UNDER SECTION 2(S) OF THESE REGULATIONS, WHICHEVER IS THE LOWER. (2) FOR TIDELANDS SURVEYS ABUTTING ANY U.S. SURVEY MADE AFTER THE DATE OF STATEHOOD OR IN ANY LOCATION WHERE NO UPLANDS SURVEY EXISTS, THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE SHALL BE DETERMINED BY USING U.S.C. & G.S. BENCH MARKS (OR ANY OTHER BENCH MARKS WHICH HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED FROM THAT SOURCE), AND TIDE TABLE DATUM. THE UPLAND BOUNDARY NEED NOT FOLLOW THIS LINE IN ITS ENTIRE EXACTNESS, BUT MAY FOLLOW IN A “MEANDER” OR “AVERAGE” LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE. EACH END OF THE BOUNDARY SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED ON THE ELEVATION OF MEAN HIGH TIDE. PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT WHERE THE TRUE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE HAS BEEN ALTERED BY FILL OR ARTIFICIAL ACCRETION, THE LINE OF HIGH TIDE AS IT EXISTED PRIOR TO SUCH ALTERATION SHALL GOVERN. (3) IN THE CASE THAT NO U.S.C. & G.S. BENCH MARK EXISTS WITHIN ONE MILE OF THE PROPERTY BEING SURVEYED, THE SURVEYOR MAY, BY USING THE TIDE TABLES FOR THE IMMEDIATE BODY OF WATER, AND APPLYING TIDAL READINGS HE HAS TAKEN, DETERMINE THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE AND USE IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH PARAGRAPH (2) OF THIS SECTION. IN SOME CASES, SUCH AS SALT OR MUD FLAT AREAS WHERE THE AVERAGE GRADE OF THE BENCH IS TEN PERCENT (10%) OR LESS AND DETERMINING THE ELEVATION OF THE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE COULD CREATE A LENGTHY HORIZONTAL Page 153 Page 17 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 DISTANCE, THE CITY COUNCIL MAY REQUIRE THAT THE TRUE LINE OF MEAN HIGH TIDE BE ESTABLISHED, REGARDLESS OF THE DISTANCE FROM A KNOWN BENCH MARK. (B) METHOD OF ESTABLISHING SIDE BOUNDARY LINES. (1) IN FIXING THE SIDE BOUNDARY LINES, THE GENERAL RULES OF EXTENDING RIPARIAN BOUNDARY LINES, AS OUTLINED BY SUCH AUTHORS AS RAYNER, CLARK OR BROWN, SHALL BE FOLLOWED. IN THE EVENT THAT ACTUAL OCCUPANCY DOES NOT MATCH THE RIPARIAN BOUNDARIES, THE SURVEY SHALL BE MADE TO INCLUDE THE OCCUPANT’S HOLDINGS AND NOT TO ENCROACH ON THE ADJOINING OCCUPANT. This section applies to specific plats which are no longer reviewed. 11.15.130 PROCEDURE ON FINAL PLAT. (A) THE FINAL PLAT SHALL CONFORM SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE PRELIMINARY LAYOUT AS APPROVED BY THE COMMISSION. (B) THE FINAL PLAT SHALL BE SUBMITTED TO THE CITY CLERK ON GOOD QUALITY TRACING CLOTH, IN INK, OR MYLARS TOGETHER WITH FIVE PRINTS.

WHEN MORE THAN ONE SHEET IS REQUIRED, AN INDEX SHALL BE FILED SHOWING THE ENTIRE PARCEL WITH THE SHEETS IN NUMERICAL ORDER, AND EACH SHEET SHOWING THE TOTAL NUMBER, I.E., SHEET 1 OF 3. WHEN MORE THAN ONE SHEET IS SUBMITTED, ONLY THE LAST MUST HAVE THE APPROVAL BLOCKS, BUT ALL SHEETS MUST BE THE SAME SIZE. (D) WHEN THE FINAL PLAT HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION, ONE COPY SHALL BE SENT, ALONG WITH THE DEED TO THE PROPERTY, TO THE MAGISTRATE OF THE RECORDING DISTRICT IN WHICH THE TRACT LIES FOR OFFICIAL RECORDING. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS SHALL BE SENT TO THE MAGISTRATE INSTRUCTING HIM TO SEND THE DEED TO THE OCCUPANT AFTER RECORDING. ONE COPY OF THE PLAT WILL BE RETURNED TO THE OCCUPANT. THE ORIGINAL TRACING CONTAINING THE CERTIFICATION BY THE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION WILL BE RETAINED BY THE CITY. PRINTS OR DUPLICATE TRANSPARENCIES WILL BE FURNISHED AT COST OF REPRODUCTION. This provision applies to plats that are no longer processed. 11.15.140 FINAL PLAT REQUIREMENTS. (A) THE FINAL PLAT SHALL INCLUDE ALL INFORMATION REQUIRED ON THE PRELIMINARY PLAT.

THE LESSEE MAY BE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT TO THE CITY EACH YEAR ON OR ABOUT MARCH 15, AN ANNUAL REPORT ON ITS OPERATIONS, PARTICULARLY THOSE SERVICES AND FACILITIES OFFERED TO THE PUBLIC, WHETHER ON A FEE OR NON-FEE BASIS]. This does not need to be in this code section as it is covered in the planning and zoning code related to conditional use permits and can be included in a specific lease if necessary. 11.20.650 Tidelands [C]Claims. (House Keeping) The City shall lease the subject land subject to any preference rights claims made pursuant to the provisions of Alaska State 38.05.[3]820 or Ordinance No. 455-78, dated September 5, 1979 of the City of Kenai, adopted pursuant thereto, and the lessee holds lessor harmless for any damages, legal expenses, or compensation necessitated by the resolution or satisfaction of said claims, if any. This is a unique provision that should remain. The proposed changes reflect a statutory change to state law renumbering the state statute number. 11.20.660 Subjection to [H]Harbor [O]Ordinance. (House Keeping) All leases are subject to the terms, conditions, and regulations imposed by Title II, Harbor and Harbor Facilities, of the 1979 Kenai Code of ordinances as amended of which this section is part. This is relevant and should be reiterated in the lease document itself. [11.20.670 ARBITRATION. IN THE EVENT THE CITY AND LESSEE SHALL BE UNABLE TO AGREE AS TO ANY MATTER PROVIDED FOR IN THE LEASE EXCEPT AS TO THE AMOUNT OF THE FIVE-YEAR RENT REDETERMINATION AMOUNT WHICH IS HANDLED PURSUANT TO KMC 11.20.160, SUCH DISPUTE SHALL BE DETERMINED BY THREE DISINTERESTED ARBITRATORS (UNLESS THE PARTIES CAN AGREE ON ONE ARBITRATOR).

THE ARBITRATORS DESIGNATED AND ACTING UNDER THIS LEASE SHALL HAVE NO POWER TO DEPART FROM OR CHANGE ANY OF THE PROVISIONS THEREOF. THE EXPENSE OF ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS CONDUCTED HEREUNDER SHALL BE BORNE EQUALLY BY THE PARTIES. THE PROCEEDINGS SHALL TAKE PLACE IN KENAI, ALASKA UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED UPON BY THE PARTIES.] Appeal rights for lease rates are provided in Title 22 addressing city lands. In the general the City has moved away from arbitration clauses. 11.20.680 Provisions [R]Regulating [P]Public [U]Use [P]Purpose. (House Keeping) The City Council realizes that only a limited area of tidelands bordering navigable waters are available within the City of Kenai and which are owned by the City of Kenai. It would be in the public interest to insure that these lands do not pass out of community control at least to the extent that the public would not be deprived of harbor services at reasonable rates in the future. Therefore, areas of City-owned tidelands which are developable for the bona fide public purposes as enumerated below shall be leased only with the following covenants defined to insure public use and access at reasonable rates. This is a provision unique to Title 11 that should be maintained. 11.20.690 Provision to be [I]Included in [P]Public [U]Use [L]Lease. (House Keeping) The following provision shall be included in leases where harbor facilities are constructed to be utilized all or in part for bona fide public uses. This is a provision unique to Title 11 that should be maintained. 11.20.700 Public [U]Use: [D]Defined. (House Keeping) (a) Public use shall mean a use limited in part or in whole to the following: (1) In general, the lessee may use the demised premises or part thereof for any of the following purposes only: (i) Public dock facilities. (ii) Maritime commerce. (iii) Transportation. (iv) Fishing. (v) Boat harbor. (vi) Port and waterfront development purposes. (b) Before lessee may conduct any activities which fall under this general criteria, but are not specifically mentioned above, lessee must obtain written consent of the City. This is a provision unique to Title 11 that should be maintained, however I would recommend the Page 193 Page 57 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 Harbor Commission revisit this to ensure it allows for sufficient flexibility in development, for example, it should not be interpreted to prohibit retail, restaurant, or boat storage, even perhaps some limited residential as part of a broader harbor development plan. 11.20.710 Controlled [A]Access. (House Keeping) Lessee, for its own protection, may construct or install fences, gates, or other types of barriers to restrict access to portions of the demised premises that are not designated for a public use and may provide reasonable controls for access to public use areas to allow for security for such areas while insuring reasonable public access. Reasonable public access includes accommodations made for fishing operations during fishing season. Any Controlled Access measures shall be indicated on the Lessee’s Development Plan. This is a provision unique to Title 11 that should be maintained. 11.20.720 Use [C]Charges. (House Keeping) Lessee shall make reasonable and non-discriminatory charges to the public for use of any of its facilities. [IT IS EXPRESSLY RECOGNIZED THAT LESSEE IS ENTITLED TO A MARGIN OF PROFIT, WHICH SHOULD BE FAI R, REASONABLE, AND COMPETITIVE, AND THAT CITY WILL COOPERATE TO THIS END IN CONSIDERING RATES AND FEES. THE COMMISSION SHALL REVIEW ALL RATE STRUCTURES ANNUALLY. THE LEASE SHALL CONTAIN AN ARBITRATION PROVISION AS SET FORTH IN KMC 11.20.670 TO RESOLVE DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER.] As a general policy this is ok, but the City currently does not monitor rates charged by businesses. [11.20.730 MAINTENANCE OF DOCK. LESSEE COVENANTS THAT IT WILL MAINTAIN THE DOCK FACILITY IN A SAFE CONDITION AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL STANDARDS.] I recommend removal of this because it is unclear what dock is being referred to and is covered in other provisions and lease terms. [11.20.740 MODIFICATIONS OF EXISTING LEASES. LEASES SHALL ONLY BE MODIFIED TO THAT EXTENT DEEMED TO BE NECESSARY TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC’S INTEREST. This is provided for in the lease form. 11.20.750 UNAUTHORIZED REMOVAL OF MATERIAL PROHIBITED. ANY PERSON, FIRM, OR CORPORATION WHO WITHOUT WRITTEN AUTHORITY FROM THE CITY REMOVES ROCK, GRAVEL, OR OTHER MATERIAL FROM THE LANDS OWNED BY THE CITY WITHOUT THE EXPRESS CONSENT OF THE CITY SHALL BE DEEMED GUILTY OF A VIOLATION. ANY CRIMINAL ACTION TAKEN AGAINST SUCH PERSON SHALL Page 194 Page 58 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 NOT PRECLUDE THE INSTITUTION OF CIVIL PROCEEDINGS BY THE CITY. This is provided for in the lease form. 11.20.760 REMOVAL NOT AUTHORIZED BY LEASE. NO DEED OR LEASE GRANTED BY THE CITY TO ANY PERSON SHALL CONTAIN TERMS OR BE CONSTRUED AS GRANTING ANY RIGHT TO REMOVE MATERIAL FROM CITY LANDS.] This is provided for in the lease form. [11.20.770 DISPOSITION OF RIGHTS BY COUNCIL. IN RECOGNITION THAT CONDITIONS MAY EXIST FROM TIME TO TIME W HEREBY USE OF SUCH LANDS AND THE MATERIAL COMPRISING THE SAME MAY BE BENEFICIAL TO THE PUBLIC INTEREST AND PROMOTE THE PROGRESS AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE CITY, APPLICATIONS FOR THE USE THEREOF MAY BE RECEIVED AND CONSIDERED BY THE COMMISSION, PROVIDING SUCH APPLICATIONS FULLY DISCLOSE TO THE CITY ALL MATERIAL FACTS AND PLANS FOR THE PROPOSED USE. SUCH APPLICATIONS SHALL BE CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OF THE CITY AND REFERRED TO THE CITY PLANNING COMMISSION FOR ITS RECOMMENDATIONS. DISPOSITION OF SUCH APPLICATIONS SHALL BE MADE BY THE COUNCIL AFTER RECOMMENDATION FROM THE COMMISSION.] This is covered in the City’s material site ordinances. 11.20.780 Penalties. (a) It is unlawful for any person to violate any of the provisions of this chapter and upon conviction thereof shall be fined as provided for violations in KMC 13.05.010. Each day such violation is committed or permitted to continue shall constitute a separate offense and shall be punishable as such hereunder. (b) In addition to or as an alternative to the above penalty provision, the City may impose a civil penalty in an amount as provided by KMC 13.05.010 per day for the violation of any provision of this chapter and seek injunctive relief for any infraction thereof for which the offending party will be charged for reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred by the City as awarded by the court. (c) Nothing in this section shall be deemed to restrict the City’s exercise of any of its rights pursuant to the lease agreement including those enumerated in KMC 11.20.220 and KMC 11.20.240 hereof. This penalty section is appropriate to remain in code. 11.20.790 Tideland [L]Leases for [S]Shore [F]Fisheries. (House Keeping) (a) Notwithstanding other provisions of the City’s Code of Ordinances [T]the annual minimum rental rate for tideland leases used primarily for shore fisheries shall be an annual fee as set forth in the City’s schedule of fees adopted by the City Council. However, should Page 195 Page 59 of 59 Ordinance No. 3106-2020 the State of Alaska set an annual lease rate higher than that established by the City for similar tideland leases for shore fisheries on land owned by the State, the City may amend the annual rental to a rate equal to that charged by the State of Alaska. [ANY MONEY OWED PURSUANT TO KMC 11.20.150 ] SHALL BE IN ADDITION TO THE ANNUAL MINIMUM SET FORTH ABOVE. (B) NEITHER KMC 11.20.160 NOR KMC 11.20.620(A) SHALL APPLY TO TIDELAND LEASES FOR SHORE FISHERIES. (C) THE PROVISIONS OF KMC 11.20.110 AND KMC 11.20.130 REQUIRING APPRAISALS OF TIDELAND PROPERTY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LEASES OF TIDELANDS FOR SHORE FISHERIES. HOWEVER, THE SURVEY PROVISIONS OF KMC 11.20.110 ARE APPLICABLE TO SHORE FISHERY LEASES.] Shore fisheries lease are unique and this section should be maintained. The amendments address the proposed removal of prior code sections.

While daily activities were limited, home and congregate meals were able to be served throughout the project. The Card/Library Room was set up to serve as a makeshift dining room and the kitchen staff created and transported meals buffet style. We were expecting smaller crowds during this time, but instead had full tables almost every day. The seniors loved it and said it felt like they were “picnicking” inside the Senior Center. The new flooring is beautiful and meets the daily needs of our program. The Dining Room is a multi-purpose room and utilized throughout each day. The Growing Strong Exercise Class meets three mornings a week and has 30-40 individuals participating. Previously, the amount of space available for this activity was confined. This class now has space to move on a level floor without disturbing those around them. They are delighted with the new space! Thank you to the City of Kenai, the Rasmuson Foundation and a few private sponsors for helping this project come to fruition. Thank you to the City of Kenai Public Works/Building Department and Kenai Parks & Recreation Department for your help in moving furniture all around the Center as we created room for the flooring work. With the 2018 Atrium Rebuild and the 2020 Flooring Project, the Senior Center Dining Room is a beautiful space for our senior population as they enjoy their retirement days in our beloved State and City.

Kenai Historical Society - January 2020 Newsletter Page 230 Officers: President—June Harris Vice President—Virginia Walters Secretary—Sharon Fisher Treasurer—Ron Fullinck Board of Directors: Jim Glendenning Joe Harris Henry Knackstedt Bill Nelson Marion Nickelson Frosty Walters KENAI HISTORICAL SOCIETY NEWSLETTER Written by Sharon Fisher If you would like to contribute ideas and information to the newsletter, please contact me at 776-8254. I welcome and would entertain any ideas you may have for articles, and would appreciate being contacted if you see errors in the information con- tained in the newsletter. January 2020 Newsletter Kenai Historical Society P.O. Box 1348 Kenai, Alaska 99611 INSIDE THIS ISSUE: • PRESERVING HISTORY • EXPLORING THE HIS- TORY OF AGRICUL- TURE IN THE KENAI AREA IN THE LATE 1800s • JANUARY 2020 MEET- ING MINUTES • ANNOUNCEMENTS PRESERVING HISTORY It happens to me from time to time as I meander through my normal daily routines, that something unexpected will come to my attention and consume time and thought that I had not been expecting to spend. As I have become increasingly interested in the history of Ke- nai over the last four decades, I occasionally run across a little gem of information that puts another piece of the puzzle into place. Recently there have been two such occasions that answered some questions that I’d been puzzling over for quite a few years. The sub- ject of this month’s newsletter is one of them. Agriculture in and around Kenai has generally been a sketchy enterprise due to the weather influenced by proximity to Cook Inlet. Homesteading here was accomplished by some dancing around the requirements and meeting the bare minimums. Few of the attempted crops provided any meaningful revenue for the individuals or the community, unlike the Sterling area, which had greater success due to their warmer summers. Our experience was more like “been there”, “done that”, and putting the acquired land to other uses, such as subdividing and selling. If you drive off the main roads north of Kenai, however, you can still see some remnants of the attempts that were made. It con- tinues to interest me how early information about the impracticabil- ity of agriculture in this area didn’t stop people from trying anyway. Page 231 2 As a result of the publication of the following article in the Peninsula Clarion by Matt Browser in the Refuge Notebook section, dated January 10, 2020, I responded by sending the author an article from the Kenai Historical Society that was published in February 2014. I posed the thought to him that as a result of that early exploration of Kenai in 1897 -98, the establishment of an agricultural experiment station was perhaps implemented. The two events may not have been related, but the proximity of the dates would certainly suggest otherwise. Page 232 Page 233 4 The following is a reprint of an article in the Kenai Historical Society Newsletter for February 2014 that discusses an Agricultural Station that existed in Kenai at the turn of the century beginning in 1899. The article begins by talking about how the Society had been unpacking items stored for a number of years, and coming across the Alaska (in Kenai) Agricultural Experiment Station. ****************************************************************************** The following information comes from a “treasure” I unearthed from one of the boxes, plus a little additional research I did via computer. I was unaware that Kenai was home to an Alaska Agricultural Experiment Station from 1899 to 1908 until I came across a binder that was put together about 35 years ago by a former Kenai Historical member named Frost Jones. I was aware of Frost as a painter, but apparently she was involved in the Kenai Historical Society and had somehow learned of the exist- ence of this station. She wanted to obtain a copy of a 1902 government bulletin that she had seen years ago, but no longer had access to. She wrote to the Cooperative Extension Service and they for- warded her letter to the University, and eventually she obtained a Xerox copy of part of a U.S. Depart- ment of Agriculture Annual Report of the Office of Experiment Station. From some internet research I did, I learned that in 1897 Congress instructed the Department of Agri- culture to investigate the agricultural potential of Alaska. It was decided to establish an agricultural experiment station in Alaska and a Dr. Georgeson headed the effort by opening a station in Sitka in 1898, with a 2nd station established in Kodiak. By 1899 a 3rd station was established in Kenai. Additional stations were later added in Rampart and Copper Center in Alaska’s interior. The Kenai station was under the direction of a Mr. H.P. Nielsen. In October of 1902, he submitted the following report for the work accomplished during the year: CLEARING In addition to work with the experimental crops on the 7 acres previously broken, 8 acres have been cleared of trees, stumps, and brush, broken, and put in condition for seeding next spring, and the whole clearing has been fenced. GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS Several improvements have been made, mostly in the line of additions to equipment. A 20-shoe press drill was added last spring, and used in seeding all the field grains. Drilling is a great improve- ment over broadcasting, owing to the loose character of the soil. A seed cleaner has been added this fall, and will be used in cleaning this season’s crops. The log house on the station has been complet- ed and is now quite comfortable. A milch cow and a calf were added to the station herd in July. The cattle now belonging to the station consist of 2 work oxen, 1 yearling steer, 1 cow, and one 4 1/2 – months old heifer calf. The stable has been rebuilt to accommodate all of the stock. A corral has been built adjoining the stable. About 5 tons of native grass was cut and cured and stacked in July about half of it has been brought home. Page 234 Page 235 The work of the station was continued long enough to prove: First, that grain can not be successfully matured in that region---at least not until varieties are developed which can prosper in the compara- tively cool summers. Second that the hardy vegetables---kale, cabbage, turnips, potatoes, etc.---can be grown there very successfully; also that the berry fruits, raspberries, currants, and gooseberries, can be grown there. Third, it was proved that cattle can be reared in that location, and that butter and cheese of good quality can be made from the milk of cattle kept there. Fourth, it was proved that hay can be made not only from the native grass, which is abundant wherever the spruce forest does not usurp the surface of the land, but that grain hay can be made in abundance with certainty and success every year. Below is a picture I located of Frost Jones reading some of the histories she collected. The relevance of both the article in the Clarion, and the reprint of the 2014 article, has to do with our speaker for the February meeting. Pastor Benjamin Phelps has worked on compiling the history of the Grace Lutheran Church located on Ciechanski Road. He has an interest in seeing local histories collected and saved for the future. He will be presenting his project and his knowledge on how this can be done by other organizations so that their participation in the community is not “lost in archives “. The collec- tion and preservation of such histories should be the focus of groups such as ours, and the members should be making that their primary goal. I would like to give credit and everlasting thanks to past KHS members such as Frost Jones, Jettie Peterson, Mary Ford, and others who took the time to research and organize information in order to keep it available for the future. We can learn from and about our past, but only if it continues to be kept available. Page 236 7 P.O.

Page 237 KENAI HISTORIC SOCIETY Our Organization There has been a Historic Society since the days before Kenai becom- ing a city. The Society was formed a few years before Statehood in 1959, and then went inactive in the early 60’s. It restarted in the latter part of the 60’s and has met regularly since. The Society had a museum in Fort Kenay for some years, and then continued to meet after that closed. The non-profit Society implemented and operates the Kenai Historic Cabins Park, open for tours in the summer months. We have office space at the Moosemeat John cabin, but are not open to the public in that building. Our member meetings are Sept., Nov., Dec., Jan., Feb., Mar., and April at the Kenai Visitor Center. For Oct. and May, we meet with the Kenai Peninsula Historical Association. Please check the Meet- ings and Announcements section on this page for date information.

Resolution No. 2020-09  KPB Ordinance  KPB Amendment Memo City Attorney Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 1 of 27 Introduced by: Cooper, Smalley Date: 01/21/20 Hearing: 02/25/20 Action: Vote: KENAI PENINSULA BOROUGH ORDINANCE 2020-03 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING KPB 5.18 SALES TAX CODE AND ENACTING KPB 5.19 UNIFORM REMOTE SELLER SALES TAX CODE WHEREAS, the inability to effectively collect sales tax on sales of personal property, products or services transferred or delivered into Alaska by sellers who do not have a physical presence in the borough (“remote seller”) is eroding the sales tax base of Alaska communities and resulting in revenue losses that are causing imminent harm to residents through the loss of critical funding for local education; and WHEREAS, the harm from the loss of revenue is especially problematic in Alaska because the state has no broad-based sales tax, and sales tax revenues are essential in funding the provision of services by local governments; and WHEREAS, the failure to collect tax on remote sales creates artificial market distortions and competitive advantages for remote sellers by perpetuating tax shelters for businesses that limit their physical presence in the state or its municipalities but still sell goods and services to local consumers without collecting sales tax, something that becomes easier and more prevalent as technology continues to advance; and WHEREAS, the structural advantages for remote sellers, including the absence of point -of-sale tax collection, combined with the general growth of online retail sales, means that the erosion of the sales tax base is a growing problem that will only worsen in the near future if the borough is not able to legally collect remote seller sales tax within the framework of current United States Supreme Court case law; and WHEREAS, the failure to effectively collect sales tax on remote or internet-based sales results in the creation of incentives for businesses to avoid a physical presence in the borough, resulting in less jobs and increasing the share of taxes paid by those consumers who buy from competitors with a physical presence in the borough; and WHEREAS, remote sellers who make a substantial number of deliveries into or have large gross revenues from Alaska benefit extensively from the Alaska market, affecting the economy generally, as well as local infrastructure; and WHEREAS, the recent decision by the United States Supreme Court in South Dakota v. Wayfair (“Wayfair”) allows for the amendment of the sales tax code to account for remote sellers who do not have a physical presence in the borough, but do have a taxable connection with the borough; and Page 2 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 2 of 27 WHEREAS, the Wayfair decision provides guidance that includes the defensibility of a single- level statewide administration of remote sales tax collection and remittance so long as the law is not retroactive in its application and provides a safe harbor to sellers who have limited sales or transactions in Alaska; and WHEREAS, in order to implement a single-level statewide sales tax administration, numerous local taxing jurisdictions within Alaska worked together to establish an intergovernmental entity known as the Alaska Remote Seller Sales Tax Commission (the “Commission”); and WHEREAS, currently 23 municipalities in Alaska are members of the Commission; and WHEREAS, the function and powers of the Commission are set forth in the Alaska Intergovernmental Remote Seller Sales Tax Agreement (the “Agreement”), a cooperative agreement between Commission members; and WHEREAS, as part of the process to implement a remote seller sales tax code and pursuant to Resolution 2019-056, the borough signed the Agreement and is currently a full member of the Commission; and WHEREAS, five of the incorporated cities within the borough are members of the Commission; and WHEREAS, representatives from the borough, the City of Soldotna, and the City of Kenai also currently hold three of the seven Board of Director seats on the Commission; and WHEREAS, under the terms of the Agreement, in order to maintain membership in the Commission, local governments must enact the Uniform Remote Seller Sales Tax Code (“Uniform Code”) as adopted by the Commission’s Board of Directors; WHEREAS, the Board of Directors adopted the Uniform Code at its meeting on January 6, 2020; and WHEREAS, the Uniform Code will govern the collection and remittance of municipal sales tax applicable to remote or internet-based sales; and WHEREAS, the purpose of the Uniform Code is to comply with guidance in Wayfair by providing statewide threshold criteria, streamlined single-level tax administration for remote sellers, and no retroactive application; and WHEREAS, the Uniform Code will provide for streamlined remote sales tax collection and remittance process which is necessary to avoid claims that local municipal tax unduly burdens interstate sellers; and Page 3 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 3 of 27 WHEREAS, this ordinance will adopt the Uniform Code, amend current borough sales tax code for consistency, and authorize the Commission to administer the remote sales tax collection and remittance for the borough; and WHEREAS, this is the culmination of a process that began in June of 2019 and is the last step before municipal tax collected by remote sellers can be remitted to the borough through the Commission; and WHEREAS, in light of the Wayfair decision, failure to adopt a uniform, streamlined, remote seller sales tax code will jeopardize the ability of the borough and its cities to collect tax on remote sales; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE ASSEMBLY OF THE KENAI PENINSULA BOROUGH: SECTION 1. That KPB 5.18.450(A) is hereby amended as follows: 5.18.450. - Tax jurisdiction Point of Taxation. A. The rate of tax to be added to the sale price is based on the place of sale. The place of sale of goods and merchandise is the location of the [RETAIL OUTLET] physical presence at which or from which delivery was made. This provision applies to goods delivered to buyers within the borough and to goods delivered to buyers outside the borough but within the state of Alaska. If the invoice includes a charge for installation, then the place of the sale for the goods and service is the retail outlet at which or from which delivery was made. When goods are delivered into the borough from a point outside of the borough and the seller maintains an ongoing physical presence in the borough, then the location of the seller's in-borough presence will determine the place of sale. [IF A SELLER HAS NO ONGOING PHYSICAL PRESENCE IN THE BOROUGH BUT HAS ESTABLISHED NEXUS WITH THE BOROUGH, THE POINT OF DELIVERY WILL DETERMINE THE PLACE OF SALE. IF THE SELLER HAS NO ONGOING PHYSICAL PRESENCE IN, OR NEXUS WITH, THE BOROUGH THE SALE IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE BOROUGH SALES TAX. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION THE FOLLOWING TERMS ARE DEFINED AS SHOWN BELOW: 1. "NEXUS" MEANS THE SELLER HAS ESTABLISHED A TAXABLE CONNECTION WITHIN THE BOROUGH BY USE OF MARKETING TECHNIQUES, SUCH AS DIRECTED ADVERTISING IN THE BOROUGH VIA TELEPHONE OR INTERNET, OR DOOR -TO-DOOR SALES WITHIN THE BOROUGH, OR BY USE OF CONTRACT WORKERS OR CONTRACT OR COMMISSION AGENTS OR BUSINESSES, WHICH ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE SELLER'S EFFORTS TO ESTABLISH OR MAINTAIN A MARKET FOR ITS GOODS OR SERVICES, DELIVER THOSE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR PROVIDE WARRANTY OR OTHER REPAIR OR RETURN SERVICES IN THE BOROUGH. Page 4 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 4 of 27 2. THE "POINT OF DELIVERY" WHERE THERE IS NO ONGOING PHYSICAL PRESENCE IN THE BOROUGH IS THE PLACE WHERE PHYSICAL POSSESSION OF THE GOODS IS TRANSFERRED TO THE CUSTOMER.] … SECTION 2. That KPB 5.18.680 is hereby enacted as follows: 5.18.680 Uniform Remote Seller Sales Tax Code Sellers with no physical presence in the borough that have remote or internet-based sales in the borough and sellers with a physical presence in the borough that have remote or internet -based sales within other taxing jurisdictions in Alaska are subject to KPB 5.19 instead of KPB 5.18. SECTION 3. That KPB 5.19 is enacted as follows: KPB 5.19. Uniform Remote Seller Sales Tax Code 5.19.010. Interpretation. A. In order to prevent evasion of the sales taxes and to aid in its administration, it is presumed that all sales and services by a person or entity engaging in business are subject to the sales tax. B. The application of the tax levied under this Code shall be broadly construed and shall favor inclusion rather than exclusion. C. Exemptions from the tax levied under this Code or from the taxing jurisdiction shall be narrowly construed against the claimant and allowed only when such exemption clearly falls within an exemption defined in this Code or the taxing jurisdiction’s Code. D. The scope of this Code shall apply to remote sellers or marketplace facilitators, delivering products or services to Member municipalities adopting this Code, within the state of Alaska. 5.19.020. Title to Collected Sales Tax. Upon collection by the remote seller or marketplace facilitator, title to collected sales tax vests in the Commission for remittance to the taxing jurisdiction. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator remits collected sales tax to the Commission on behalf of the taxing jurisdiction, from whom that power is delegated, in trust for the taxing jurisdiction and is accountable to the Commission and taxing jurisdiction. 5.19.030. Imposition – Rate. A. To the fullest extent permitted by law, a sales tax is levied and assessed on all remote sales where delivery is made within the local taxing jurisdiction(s) that is a Member, within the state of Alaska. Page 5 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 5 of 27 B. The applicable tax shall be added to the sales price. C. The tax rate added to the sale price shall be the tax rate for the taxing jurisdiction(s) where the property or product is sold, or service that was rendered is received, and based on the date the property or product was sold or the date the service rendered was received. D. An Address and Tax Rate Database will be made available to remote sellers and marketplace facilitators, indicating the appropriate tax rate to be applied. E. The tax assessed shall be consistent with relevant jurisdictional tax caps, single unit sales, and exemptions. F. When a sale is made on an installment basis, the applicable sales tax shall be collected at each payment, calculated at the sales tax rate in effect, and with the cap applied, at the time of the original sale or the date the service is rendered, based on the local jurisdictions’ Code(s). G. When a sales transaction involves placement of a single order with multiple deliveries made at different points in time that are separately invoiced, the applicable sales tax shall be collected on each separately invoiced delivery, calculated at the sales tax rate in effect, and with the cap applied, at the time of the original sale or the date the service is rendered. 5.19.040. Obligation to Collect Tax - Threshold Criteria. A. Any remote seller or marketplace facilitator must collect and remit sales tax in compliance with all applicable procedures and requirements of law, provided the remote seller or marketplace facilitator has met one of the following Threshold Criteria (“Threshold Criteria”) in the previous calendar year: 1. The remote seller’s statewide gross sales, including the seller’s marketplace facilitator’s statewide gross sales, from the sale(s) of property, products or services delivered into the state meets or exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000); or 2. The remote seller, including the seller’s marketplace facilitator, sold property, products, or services delivered into the state in two hundred (200) or more separate transactions. B. For purposes of determining whether the Threshold Criteria are met, remote sellers or marketplace facilitators shall include all gross sales, from all sales of goods, property, products, or services rendered within the state of Alaska. 5.19.050. No Retroactive Application. The obligations to collect and remit sales tax required by this chapter are applicable at the effective date of the ordinance adopting the Alaska Remote Seller Sales Tax Code. 5.19.060. Payment and Collection. Page 6 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 6 of 27 Pursuant to this Code, taxes imposed shall be due and paid by the buyer to the remote seller or marketplace facilitator at the time of the sale of property or product or date service is rendered, or with respect to credit transactions, at the time of collection. It shall be the duty of each remote seller or marketplace facilitator to collect the taxes from the buyer and to hold those taxes in trust for the taxing authority of the taxing jurisdiction. Failure by the remote seller or marketplace facilitator to collect the tax shall not affect the remote seller’s, or marketplace facilitator’s, responsibility for payment to the Commission. 5.19.070. Remote Seller and Marketplace Facilitator Registration Requirement. A. If a remote seller’s gross statewide sales within the last calendar year meets or exceeds the Threshold Criteria, the remote seller shall register with the Commission. If a marketplace facilitator’s gross statewide sales within the last calendar year meets or exceeds the Threshold Criteria, the marketplace facilitator shall register with the Commission. B. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator meeting the Threshold Criteria shall apply for a certificate of sales tax registration within thirty (30) calendar days of the effective date of this Code or within thirty (30) calendar days of meeting the Threshold Criteria whichever occurs second. Registration shall be to the Commission on forms prescribed by the Commission. C. An extension may be applied for and granted based on criteria established by the Commission, based on evidence produced to describe time necessary to update software or other technical needs, not to exceed ninety (90) days. D. Upon receipt of a properly executed application, the Commission shall confirm registration, stating the legal name of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator, the primary address, and the primary sales tax contact name and corresponding title. The failure of the Commission to confirm registration does not relieve the remote seller or marketplace facilitator of its duty to collect and remit sales tax. E. Each business entity shall have a sales tax registration under the advertised name. F. The sales tax certificate is non-assignable and non-transferable. 5.19.080. Tax Filing Schedule. A. All remote sellers or marketplace facilitators subject to this Code shall file a return on a form or in a format prescribed by the Commission and shall pay the tax due. B. Filing of sales tax returns are due monthly; quarterly filing is optional upon application and approval by the Commission, consistent with the code of the local jurisdiction. C. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator who has filed a sales tax return will be presumed to be making sales in successive periods unless the remote seller or marketplace facilitator Page 7 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 7 of 27 files a return showing a termination or sale of the business in accordance with this Code. D. The completed and executed return, together with the remittance in full for the tax due, shall be transmitted to and must be received by the Commission on or before midnight Alaska Standard Time on the due date. Monthly returns are due the last day of the immediate subsequent month. Quarterly returns are due as follows: Quarter 1 (January – March) April 30 Quarter 2 (April – June) July 31 Quarter 3 (July – September) October 31 Quarter 4 (October – December) January 31 E. If the last day of the month following the end of the filing period falls on a Saturday, Sunday, federal holiday or Alaska state holiday, the due date will be extended until the next business day immediately following. F. Any remote seller or marketplace facilitator holding a remote seller registration shall file a sales tax return even though no tax may be due. This return shall show why no tax is due. If the remote seller or marketplace facilitator intends to continue doing business a return shall be filed reflecting no sales and a confirmation of the intent to continue doing business and shall continue to do so each filing period until the entity ceases doing business or sells the business. If the remote seller or marketplace facilitator intends to cease doing business, a final return shall be filed along with a statement of business closure. G. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall prepare the return and remit sales tax to the Commission on the same basis, cash or accrual, which the remote seller or marketplace facilitator uses in preparing its federal income tax return. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall sign the return, and transmit the return, with the amount of sales tax and any applicable penalty, interest or fees that it shows to be due, to the Commission. H. Remote sellers and marketplace facilitators failing to comply with the provisions of this Code shall, if required by the Commission and if quarterly filing has been chosen, file and transmit collected sales taxes more frequently until such time as they have demonstrated to the Commission that they are or will be able to comply with the provisions of this Code. Six (6) consecutive on-time sales tax filings, with full remittance of the sales taxes collected, shall establish the presumption of compliance and return to quarterly filing. I. The preparer of the sales tax return shall keep and maintain all documentation supporting any and all claims of exempted sales and purchases. Documentation for exempted sales should include the number of the exemption authorization card presented by the buyer at the time of the purchase; the date of the purchase; the name of the person making the purchase; the organization making the purchase; the total amount of the purchase; and the amount of sales tax exempted. This documentation shall be made available to the Commission upon request. Failure to provide such documentation may invalidate that Page 8 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 8 of 27 portion of the claim of exemption for which no documentation is provided. 5.19.090 Estimated Tax A. In the event the Commission is unable to ascertain the tax due from a remote seller or marketplace facilitator by reason of the failure of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator to keep accurate books, allow inspection, or file a return, or by reason of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator filing a false or inaccurate return, the Commission may make an estimate of the tax due based on any evidence in their possession. B. Sales taxes may also be estimated, based on any information available, whenever the Commission has reasonable cause to believe that any information on a sales tax return is not accurate. C. A remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s tax liability under this Code may be determined and assessed for a period of six (6) years after the date the return was filed or due to be filed with the Commission. No civil action for the collection of such tax may be commenced after the expiration of the six (6) year period except an action for taxes, penalties and interest due from those filing periods that are the subject of a written demand or assessment made within the six (6) year period, unless the remote seller or marketplace facilitator waives the protection of this section. D. The Commission shall notify the remote seller or marketplace facilitator, in writing, that the Commission has estimated the amount of sales tax that is due from the remote seller or marketplace facilitator. The Commission shall serve the notice on the remote seller or marketplace facilitator by delivering the notice to the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s place of business, or by mailing the notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s last known mailing address. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator who refuses the certified mail will be considered to have accepted the certified mail for purposes of service. E. The Commission’s estimate of the amount of sales tax that is due from a remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall become a final determination of the amount that is due unless the remote seller or marketplace facilitator, within thirty (30) calendar days after service of notice of the estimated tax: 1. Files a complete and accurate sales tax return for the delinquent periods supported by satisfactory records and accompanied by a full remittance of all taxes, interest, penalties, costs and other charges due; or 2. Files a written notice with the Commission appealing the estimated tax amount in accordance with the appeal procedures. 3. Arguments or reasons for failure to timely file a return and remit taxes collected shall not be considered a valid basis or grounds for granting an appeal. The basis and grounds for granting an appeal of an assessment are: Page 9 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 9 of 27 a. The identity of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator is in error; b. The amount of the debt is erroneous due to a clerical error (and the nature and extent of the error is specified in the request for appeal); or c. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator disputes the denial of exemption(s) for certain sales. F. The amount of sales tax finally determined to be due under this section shall bear interest and penalty from the date that the sales tax originally was due, plus an additional civil penalty of fifty dollars ($50) for each calendar month or partial month for which the amount of sales tax that is due has been determined. 5.19.100. Returns – Filing Contents. A. Every remote seller or marketplace facilitator required by this chapter to collect sales tax shall file with the Commission upon forms furnished by the Commission a return setting forth the following information with totals rounded to the nearest dollar: 1. Gross sales; 2. The nontaxable portions separately stating the amount of sales revenue attributable to each class of exemption; 3. Computation of taxes to be remitted; 4. Calculated discount (if applicable) based on taxing jurisdiction’s code; and 5. Such other information as may be required by the Commission. B. Each tax return remitted by a remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall be signed (digital or otherwise) by a responsible individual who shall attest to the completeness and accuracy of the information on the tax return. C. The Commission reserves the right to reject a filed return for failure to comply with the requirements of this Code for up to three (3) months from the date of filing. The Commission shall give written notice to a remote seller or marketplace facilitator that a return has been rejected, including the reason for the rejection. 5.19.110. Refunds. A. Upon request from a buyer or remote seller or marketplace facilitator the Commission shall provide a determination of correct tax rate and amount applicable to the transaction. In the case of an overpayment of taxes, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall process the refund and amend any returns accordingly. Page 10 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 10 of 27 B. If the claimant is a remote seller or marketplace facilitator, and the tax refund is owed to any buyer, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator submits, and the Commission approves, a refund plan to all affected buyers. C. The Taxing Jurisdictions may allow a buyer to request a refund directly from the Taxing Jurisdiction. 5.19.120. Amended Returns. A. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator may file an amended sales tax return, with supporting documentation, and the Commission may accept the amended return, but only in the following circumstances: i. The amended return is filed within one (1) year of the original due date for the return; and ii. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator provides a written justification for requesting approval of the amended return; and iii. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator agrees to submit to an audit upon request of the Commission. B. The Commission shall notify the remote seller or marketplace facilitator in writing (by email or otherwise) whether the Commission accepts or rejects an amended return, including the reasons for any rejection. C. The Commission may adjust a return for a remote seller or marketplace facilitator if, after investigation, the Commission determines the figure included in the original returns are incorrect; and the Commission adjusts the return within two (2) years of the original due date for the return.

Page 11 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 11 of 27 5.19.130. Extension of Time to File Tax Return. Upon written application of a remote seller or marketplace facilitator, stating the reasons therefor, the Commission may extend the time to file a sales tax return but only if the Commission finds each of the following: 1. For reasons beyond the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s control, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator has been unable to maintain in a current condition the books and records that contain the information required to complete the return; 2. Such extension is a dire necessity for bookkeeping reasons and would avert undue hardship upon the remote seller or marketplace facilitator; 3. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator has a plan to cure the problem that caused the remote seller or marketplace facilitator to apply for an extension and the remote seller or marketplace facilitator agrees to proceed with diligence to cure the problem; 4. At the time of the application, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator is not delinquent in filing any other sales tax return, in remitting sales tax to the Commission or otherwise in violation of this chapter; 5. No such extension shall be made retroactively to cover existing delinquencies. 5.19.140. Audits. A. Any remote seller or marketplace facilitator who has registered with the Commission, who is required to collect and remit sales tax, or who is required to submit a sales tax return is subject to a discretionary sales tax audit at any time. The purpose of such an audit is to examine the business records of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator in order to determine whether appropriate amounts of sales tax revenue have been collected by the remote seller or marketplace facilitator and remitted to the Commission. B. The Commission is not bound to accept a sales tax return as correct. The Commission may make an independent investigation of all retail sales or transactions conducted within the State or taxing jurisdiction. C. The records that a remote seller or marketplace facilitator is required to maintain under this chapter shall be subject to inspection and copying by authorized employees or agents of the Commission for the purpose of auditing any return filed under this chapter, or to determine the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s liability for sales tax where no return has been filed. D. In addition to the information required on returns, the Commission may request, and the remote seller or marketplace facilitator must furnish, any reasonable information deemed necessary for a correct computation of the tax. Page 12 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 12 of 27 E. The Commission may adjust a return for a remote seller or marketplace facilitator if, after investigation or audit, the Commission determines that the figures included in the original return are incorrect, and that additional sales taxes are due; and the Commission adjusts the return within two (2) years of the original due date for the return. F. For the purpose of ascertaining the correctness of a return or the amount of taxes owed when a return has not been filed, the Commission may conduct investigations, hearings and audits and may examine any relevant books, papers, statements, memoranda, records, accounts or other writings of any remote seller or marketplace facilitator at any reasonable hour on the premises of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator and may require the attendance of an y officer or employee of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator. Upon written demand by the Commission, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall present for examination, in the office of the Commission, such books, papers, statements, memoranda, records, accounts and other written material as may be set out in the demand unless the Commission and the person upon whom the demand is made agree to presentation of such materials at a different place. G. The Commission may issue subpoenas to compel attendance or to require production of relevant books, papers, records or memoranda. If any remote seller or marketplace facilitator refuses to obey any such subpoena, the Commissioner may refer the matter to the Commission’s attorney for an application to the superior court for an order requiring the remote seller or marketplace facilitator to comply therewith. H. Any remote seller, marketplace facilitator, or person engaged in business who is unable or unwilling to submit their records to the Commission shall be required to pay the Commission for all necessary expenses incurred for the examination and inspection of their records maintained outside the Commission. I. After the completion of a sales tax audit, the results of the audit will be sent to the business owner’s address of record. J. In the event the Commission, upon completion of an audit, discovers more than five hundred dollars ($500) in additional sales tax due from a remote seller or marketplace facilitator resulting from a remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s failure to accurately report sales and taxes due thereupon, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall bear responsibility for the full cost of the audit. The audit fee assessment will be in addition to interest and penalties applicable to amounts deemed to be delinquent by the Commission at the time of the conclusion of the audit. 5.19.150. Audit protest. A. If the remote seller or marketplace facilitator wishes to dispute the amount of the estimate, or the results of an examination or audit, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator must file a written protest with the Commission, within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of the notice of estimated tax or results of an audit or examination. The protest must set forth: Page 13 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 13 of 27 1. The remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s justification for reducing or increasing the estimated tax amount, including any missing sales tax returns for the periods estimated; or 2. The remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s reasons for challenging the examination or audit results. B. In processing the protest, the Commission may hold an informal meeting or hearing with the remote seller or marketplace facilitator, either on its own or upon request of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator, and may also require that the remote seller or marketplace facilitator submit to an audit, if one was not previously conducted or a more formal audit, if an estimation audit was previously performed. C. The Commission shall make a final written determination on the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s protest and mail a copy of the determination to the remote seller or marketplace facilitator. D. If a written protest is not filed within thirty (30) days of the date of the notice of estimated tax or the result of a review, audit or examination, then the estimated tax, review, audit or examination result shall be final, due and payable to the Commission. 5.19.160. Penalties and Interest for Late Filing. A. A late filing fee of twenty-five dollars ($25) per month (or quarter) shall be added to all late-filed sales tax reports in addition to interest and penalties. B. Delinquent sales tax bear interest at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum until paid. C. In addition, delinquent sales tax shall be subject to an additional penalty of 5% per month, or fraction thereof, until a total of 20% of delinquent tax has been reached. The penalty does not bear interest. D. Penalties and interest shall be assessed and collected in the same manner as the tax is assessed and collected, and applied first to penalties and interest, second to past due sales tax. E. The filing of an incomplete return, or the failure to remit all tax, shall be treated as the filing of no return. F. A penalty assessed under this section for the delinquent remittance of sales tax or failure to file a sales tax return may be waived by the Commission, upon written application of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator accompanied by a payment of all delinquent sales tax, interest and penalty otherwise owed by the remote seller or marketplace facilitator, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the date of delinquency. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator may not be granted more than one (1) waiver of penalty Page 14 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 14 of 27 under this subsection in any one calendar year. The Commission shall report such waivers of penalty to the taxing jurisdiction, in writing. 5.19.170. Repayment Plans. A. The Commission may agree to enter into a repayment plan with a delinquent remote seller or marketplace facilitator. No repayment plan shall be valid unless agreed to by both parties in writing. B. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall not be eligible to enter into a repayment plan with the Commission if the remote seller or marketplace facilitator has defaulted on a repayment plan in the previous two (2) calendar years. C. The repayment plan shall include a secured promissory note that substantially complies with the following terms: i. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator agrees to pay a minimum of ten percent (10%) down payment on the tax, interest and penalty amount due. The down payment shall be applied first to penalty, then to accumulated interest, and then to the tax owed. ii. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator agrees to pay the balance of the tax, penalty and interest owed in monthly installments over a period not to exceed two (2) years. iii. Interest at a rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum shall accrue on the principal sum due. Interest shall not apply to penalties owed or to interest accrued at the time the repayment plan is executed or accruing during the term of the repayment plan. iv. If the remote seller or marketplace facilitator is a corporation or a limited liability entity the remote seller or marketplace facilitator agrees to provide a personal guarantee of the obligations under the repayment plan. v. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator agrees to pay all future tax bills in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. vi. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator agrees to provide a security interest in the form of a sales tax lien for the entire unpaid balance of the promissory note to be recorded by the Commission at the time the repayment plan is signed. The remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall be responsible for the cost of recording the tax lien. D. If a remote seller or marketplace facilitator fails to pay two (2) or more payments as required by the repayment plan agreement, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall be in default and the entire amount owed at the time of default shall become Page 15 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 15 of 27 immediately due. The Commission will send the remote seller or marketplace facilitator a notice of default. The Commission may immediately foreclose on the sales tax lien or take any other remedy available under the law. 5.19.180. Remote Seller or Marketplace Facilitator Record Retention. Remote sellers or marketplace facilitators shall keep and preserve suitable records of all sales made and such other books or accounts as may be necessary to determine the amount of tax which the remote seller or marketplace facilitator is obliged to collect. Remote sellers or marketplace facilitators shall preserve suitable records of sales for a period of six (6) years from the date of the return reporting such sales, and shall preserve for a period of six (6) years all invoices of goods and merchandise purchased for resale, and all such other books, invoices and records as may be necessary to accurately determine the amount of taxes which the remote seller or marketplace facilitator was obliged to collect under this chapter. 5.19.190. Cessation or Transfer of Business. A. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator who sells, leases, conveys, forfeits, transfers or assigns the majority of their business interest, including a creditor or secured party, shall make a final sales tax return within thirty (30) days after the date of such conveyance. B. At least ten (10) business days before any such sale is completed, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall send to the Commission, by approved communication (email confirmation, certified first-class mail, postage prepaid) a notice that the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s interest is to be conveyed and shall include the name, address and telephone number of the person or entity to whom the interest is to be conveyed. C. Upon notice of sale and disclosure of buyer, the Commission shall be authorized to disclose the status of the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s sales tax account to the named buyer or assignee. D. Upon receipt of notice of a sale or transfer, the Commission shall send the transferee a copy of this Code with this section highlighted. E. Neither the Commission’s failure to give the notice nor the transferee’s failure to receive the notice shall relieve the transferee of any obligations under this section. F. Following receipt of the notice, the Commission shall have sixty (60) days in which to perform a final sales tax audit and assess sales tax liability against the seller of the business. If the notice is not mailed at least ten (10) business days before the sale is completed, the Commission shall have twelve (12) months from the date of the completion of the sale or the Commission’s knowledge of the completion of the sale within which to begin a final sales tax audit and assess sales tax liability against the seller of the business. The Commission may also initiate an estimated assessment if the requirements for such an assessment exist. Page 16 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 16 of 27 G. A person acquiring any interest of a remote seller or marketplace facilitator in a business required to collect the tax under this chapter assumes the liability of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator for all taxes due the Commission, whether current or delinquent, whether known to the Commission or discovered later, and for all interest, penalties, costs and charges on such taxes. H. Before the effective date of the transfer, the transferee of a business shall obtain from the Commission an estimate of the delinquent sales tax, penalty and interest, if any, owed by the remote seller or marketplace facilitator as of the date of the transfer, and shall withhold that amount from the consideration payable for the transfer, until the remote seller or marketplace facilitator has produced a receipt from the Commission showing that all tax obligations imposed by this chapter have been paid. A transferee that fails to withhold the amount required under this subsection shall be liable to the Commission and taxing jurisdiction for the lesser of the amount of delinquent sales tax, penalty and interest due from the remote seller or marketplace facilitator as of the date of transfer, and the amount that the transferee was required to withhold. I. In this section, the term “transfer” includes the following: 1. A change in voting control, or in more than fifty percent (50%) of the ownership interest in a remote seller or marketplace facilitator that is a corporation, limited liability company or partnership; or 2. A sale of all or substantially all the assets used in the business of the remote seller or marketplace facilitator; or 3. The initiation of a lease, management agreement or other arrangement under which another person becomes entitled to the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s gross receipts from sales, rentals or services. J. Subsection H of this section shall not apply to any person who acquires their ownership interest in the ongoing business as a result of the foreclosure of a lien that has priority over the Commission’s sales tax lien. K. Upon termination, dissolution or abandonment of a corporate business, any officer having control or supervision of sales tax funds collected, or who is charged with responsibility for the filing of returns or the payment of sales tax funds collected, shall be personally liable for any unpaid taxes, interest, administrative costs and penalties on those taxes if such officer willfully fails to pay or cause to be paid any taxes due from the corporation. In addition, regardless of willfulness, each director of the corporation shall be jointly and severally liable for unpaid amounts. The officer shall be liable only for taxes collected which became due during the period he or she had the control, supervision, responsibility or duty to act for the corporation. This section does not relieve the corporation of other tax liabilities or otherwise impair other tax collection remedies afforded by law. Page 17 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 17 of 27 L. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator who terminates the business without the benefit of a purchaser, successor or assign shall make a final tax return and settlement of tax obligations within thirty (30) days after such termination. If a final return and settlement are not received within thirty (30) days of the termination, the remote seller or marketplace facilitator shall pay a penalty of one hundred dollars ($100), plus an additional penalty of twenty-five dollars ($25) for each additional thirty- (30-) day period, or part of such a period, during which the final return and settlement have not been made, for a maximum of six (6) additional periods. 5.19.200. Use of Information on Tax Returns. A. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, all returns, reports and information required to be filed with the Commission under this Code, and all information contained therein, shall be kept confidential and shall be subject to inspection only by: 1. Employees and agents of the Commission and taxing jurisdiction whose job responsibilities are directly related to such returns, reports and information; 2. The person supplying such returns, reports and information; and 3. Persons authorized in writing by the person supplying such returns, reports and information. B. The Commission will release information described in subsection A of this section pursuant to subpoena, order of a court or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction, and where otherwise required by law to do so. C. Notwithstanding subsection A of this section, the following information is available for public inspection: 1. The name and address of sellers; 2. Whether a business is registered to collect taxes under this chapter; 3. The name and address of businesses that are sixty (60) days or more delinquent in filing returns or in remitting sales tax, or both filing returns and remitting sales tax; and, if so delinquent, the amount of estimated sales tax due, and the number of returns not filed. D. The Commission may provide the public statistical information related to sales tax collections, provided that no information identifiable to a particular remote seller or marketplace facilitator is disclosed. E. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prohibit the delivery to a person, or their duly authorized representative, of a copy of any return or report filed by them, nor to prohibit the publication of statistics so classified as to prevent the identification of Page 18 of 30 Ordinance 2020-03 New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Page 18 of 27 particular buyers, remote sellers, or marketplace facilitators, nor to prohibit the furnishing of information on a reciprocal basis to other agencies or political subdivisions of the state or the United States concerned with the enforcement of tax laws. F. Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prohibit the disclosure through enforcement action proceedings or by public inspection or publication of the name, estimated balance due, and current status of payments, and filings of any remote seller or marketplace facilitator or agent of any remote seller or marketplace facilitator required to collect sales taxes or file returns under this chapter, who fails to file any return and/or remit in full all sales taxes due within thirty (30) days after the required date for that business. Entry into any agreement whether pursuant to the provisions of this chapter or otherwise shall not act as any prohibition to disclosure of the records of that remote seller or marketplace facilitator as otherwise provided in this chapter. G. A prospective lessee or purchaser of any business or business interest may inquire as to the obligation or tax status of any business upon presenting to the Commission a release of tax information request signed by the authorized agent of the business. H. All returns referred to in this chapter, and all data taken therefrom, shall be kept secure from public inspection, and from all private inspection. 5.19.210. Violations. A. A remote seller or marketplace facilitator that fails to file a sales tax return or remit sales tax when due, in addition to any other liability imposed by this Code, shall pay to the Commission all costs incurred by the Commission to determine the amount of the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s liability or to collect the sales tax, including, without limitation, reviewing and auditing the remote seller’s or marketplace facilitator’s business records, collection agency fees, and actual reasonable attorney’s fees. B. A person who causes or permits a corporation of which the person is an officer or director, a limited liability company of which the person is a member or manager, or a partnership of which the person is a partner, to fail to collect sales tax or to remit sales tax to the Commission as required by this Code shall be liable to the Commission for the amount that should have been collected or remitted, plus any applicable interest and penalty. C. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, and whether or not the Commission initiates an audit or other tax collection procedure, the Commission may bring a declaratory judgment action against a remote seller or marketplace facilitator believed to meet the criteria to establish that the obligation to remit sales tax is applicable and valid under local, state and federal law. The action shall be brought in the judicial district of the taxing jurisdiction. D. The Commission may cause a sales tax lien to be filed and recorded against all real and personal property of a remote seller or marketplace facilitator where the remote seller or marketplace facilitator has: Page 19 of 30 Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska New Text Underlined; [DELETED TEXT BRACKETED] Ordinance 2020-03 Page 19 of 27 1. Failed to file sales tax returns for two (2) consecutive filing periods as required by the Code; or 2. Failed within sixty (60) days of the end of the filing period from which taxes were due to either (a) remit all amounts due or (b) to enter into a secured payment agreement as provided in this Code. 3.

Collect delinquent sales tax, penalty, interest and costs of collection, either before or after estimating the amount of sales tax due. 3. Foreclose a recorded sales tax lien as provided by law. F. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are in addition to those existing at law or equity. 5.19.220. Penalties for Violations. A.
