SUBJECT: Airport Fuel Flowage Fee
Today, we h~ld a meeting at City Hall regarding proposed resolution
No. 90-50 (see attached), which was removed from the agenda at the
September 19th council meeting. Ail air carriers and fuel handlers
were invited. In attendance were:
Charles A. Brown

After much discussion, the general consensus was that the fuel flowage
fee has not been paid nor a~ministered consistently. It was felt that
the revenue generated by the fuel fee (about $8,000 per year) probably
does not Justify the administrative burden incurred by the City and
the fuel distributors. Also, the Kenai Airport fuel fee is another
economic disincentive toward purchasing fuel at the airport.
Anchorage fuel is already about $.20 per gallon cheaper.
All persons present at the meeting agreed that it would be preferable
to increase the lending fees from $.20 to $.25 per thousand pounds of
certified gross take-off weight, and to eliminate the fuel fees. This
would raise about the same amount of revenue.
A draft resolution is attached which accomplishes this. This memo and
the ~raft resolution will be scheduled for the October 11, 1990
Airport Commission meeting. Notice of that meeting will be sent to
air carriers. Then, perhaps the resolution can go to council on
November 7, 1990.
