There were no objections. SO ORDERED, ITEM B: SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENTS B-14, Mark Schrag -- Request for Dust Control Mark Schrag, 312 Princess, Kenai -- Schrag stated he was an advocate for dust control applications to his neighborhood for the coming summer. He reported he spoke to several council members and understood the budget concerns, but was hoping applications could be made throughout the summer. He suggested some creative thinking, including how to partner with members of his neighborhood and others, adding, he believed the city would be receiving other complaint calls over the next few weeks. Williams and Public Works Manager Kornelis explained the process of budgeting and arranging for use of the truck to the dust control applications, noting to do it in May and June, the funding would be needed from the current budget and there were no monies budgeted for this use in the current budget. Additionally, arrangements for the use of the truck, the product, and permits must be done early in the year. It was also noted council would be discussing the issue during budget work sessions and Schrag was encouraged to attend the work sessions in regard to his request. Amy Brask -- Student at Kenai Central High School. Brask questioned the use of oil product and asked if it was a pollutant. Kornelis explained the product is a clean refined oil product and there are Department of Environmental Conservation restrictions on how much, where it is placed, the type of equipment used to applying the product, etc. ITEM C: REPORTS OF KPB ASSEMBLY, LEGISLATORS AND COUNCILS No reports. ITEM D: PUBLIC HEARINGS D-1. Ordinance No. 2037-2004 -- Amending KMC 23.40.080 to Provide for a Five Year Maximum Period of Reemployment for Those Persons Participating in the PERS Opt -Out and Reemployment Provisions of AS 39.35.150(b). i MOTION: \ KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 21, 2004 PAGE 3 Council Member Porter MOVED for approval of Ordinance No. 2037-2004 and Council Member Moore SECONDED the motion. Fred Mcvie -- Mcvie introduced himself as a supervisor employed by the City of Kenai at the Waste Water Treatment Plant and thanked the council for adopting the ordinance to participate in the opt -out program which would save the city $10,000- $20,000 for each of the eligible employees of the city per year who participate in the program. Mcvie stated he believed amending the ordinance to a five-year maximum period of employment would be counterproductive. He noted, if the five-year maximum is adopted, the employee will not be able to change his mind to stay longer than the five years. Because the future is an unknown, many issues could come up that would be a reason to postpone retirement. Additionally, there could be other issues come up that would make it difficult for the city to lose the employee at the end of the five-year period (shortage of qualified applicants, etc.) . Mcvie also noted, if he chooses not to take the option, he could work another ten to fifteen years, which would negate the concerns expressed that participation in the opt -out program stifles upward mobility for other employees. Mcvie noted he had already started the process, compiling information, planning, doing calculations, and paperwork in order to participate in the opt -out program and was surprised by council's decision to place a moratorium on the program. Mcvie also noted concerns stated the program produces unequal pay for the participants from the other employees. He stated, those who are eligible at this time to participate are mostly supervisors and their pay is already higher than the other employees. Council Member Moore stated the ordinance is far-reaching and when it was adopted, he did not think he fully understood what was happening. He added, he would like to include Finance Director Semmens in the discussion and because Semmens was absent he offered a motion to table the ordinance until the May 5, 2004 meeting. MOTION: Council Member Moore MOVED to table the ordinance until the May 5, 2004 council meeting and Council Member Porter SECONDED the motion. Williams noted, he understood administration was not supporting the five-year maximum period of re-employment. VOTE: Porter Yes Gilman Absent Ross Yes Williams Yes Bookey Yes Swarner Yes Moore Yes KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 21, 2004 PAGE 4 MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. Moore reported a motion was passed to place a moratorium on the opt -out program currently adopted by council and needed to be extended past the passage date of Ordinance No. 2037-2004. MOTION: Council Member Moore MOVED to extend the moratorium to June 5, 2004, which is 30 days past the passage date of May 5. Council Member Porter SECONDED the motion. There were no objections.

She noted she emailed all council members, reporting an emergency existed to have repair work begin prior to consideration of a resolution. She thanked council for their understanding. Police Chief Kopp agreed the situation was critical; the 911 system continued to work; the repair/ replacement work was accomplished though some problems were still be worked out, however he believed the system would be working smoothly by the next week.

Fire Chief Scott explained grant funds were received in the amount of $45,000 to purchase the repeater system and the repeaters would be installed in all emergency vehicles.

SO ORDERED, I-2. Purchase Orders Exceeding $2,500 MOTION: Council Member Bookey MOVED to approve the purchase orders exceeding $2,500 and Council Member Swarner SECONDED the motion. A lengthy discussion took place relating to the purchase order for the construction of office walls for the Finance Director and Accountant. Comments included: • A request for a one -page explanatory memorandum to accompany the list for purchase orders and resolutions. • Placement of walls for the Finance Director's office was discussed in 2002, but at that time, council did not approve walls to be placed for two offices. 0 Quotes were requested from several people and only one person responded. • Funding for exterior painting at the library and public safety building comes from a different account than the funding for this project. • Due to confidential paperwork, discussions, telephone calls, etc. related to personnel issues, it is important for council to approve the addition of walls around KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 21, 2004 PAGE 8 the accountant's area. It is not practical to move to another area to discuss confidential issues when the materials, information, files, etc. are in that area. Ross noted, the new federal confidentiality rules require an area where confidentiality can be obtained and he supported the project. Porter stated she was concerned the approval was made in 2002 for one office and the time it has taken for the project to be carried out. She stated she would support the project, but wanted a guarantee the cost would not exceed $6,270. Williams stated he was in full support of moving ahead with the project for both offices as soon as possible. VOTE: There were no objections. SO ORDERED, Ordinance No. 2038-2004 -- Finding That Certain City -Owned Airport Land, Described as Tract A, Baron Park No. 12 (Preliminary Plat), Consisting of Approximately 16 Acres Adjacent to Marathon Road, is Not Required for a Public Purpose and Can Be Sold, Providing a Deed of Release is Obtained from the Federal Aviation Administration.

Ordinance No. 2039-2004 -- Finding That Certain City -Owned Airport Land, Described as Baron Park No. 6, Consisting of Approximately 15 Acres Adjacent to Marathon Road, is Not Required for a Public Purpose and Can Be Sold. Introduced by consent agenda. I-5. Ordinance No. 2040-2004 -- Amending KMC 7.05.010 to Provide for a Flat Tax on Aircraft. Introduced by consent agenda. I-6. Discussion -- Request to Purchase Tract A-5 Dena'ina Point Estates. Concerns were noted by council of storm drain easements on the property and the purchase applicant, Bryan Lowe stated he was aware of the easements and was satisfied the property would be large enough for his proposed use, i.e. a restaurant. Lowe also noted he understood there was no access to water/ sewer unless he obtains approval from the neighboring property owners. He stated, if that is not possible, he intended to place a DEC -approved well and sewer system. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 21, 2004 PAGE 9 Williams noted an ordinance would need to be prepared stating the property was not required for public purpose for council consideration. He requested the ordinance be introduced for the May 5 meeting with public hearing set for May 19. He also requested a report indicating the adjacent properties and their ownership be included with the Illiamna Road lots listed as well. Bookey stated he wanted Lowe to be aware of the problems that could arise with his project. Lowe stated he was aware. Attorney Graves advised it would not be known if Lowe will be the purchaser at the May 5 or 19 meeting because the property will need to go out to bid. If Lowe is the purchaser, he will need a conditional use permit for the use of the property as well. I-7. Discussion -- Set Schedule for City Manager, City Attorney and City Clerk Annual Evaluations. Council set evaluations for the City Attorney and City Clerk for May 5, 2004. The City Manager's evaluation was set for May 19, 2004. I-8. Discussion -- Possible Amendment and the Official Kenai Zoning Map by Rezoning and Re -Platting Several Lots in the Lawton Acres Subdivision from Conservation (C). Council Member Swarner explained she requested this discussion be placed on the agenda because of the recent denied request made to purchase a portion of property known as the "Dust Bowl." She noted, there is a problem of availability of property on that side of town for small businesses. She noted, the Lawton Acres area could provide lots for small businesses, however that property is currently zoned conservation. Discussion followed regarding whether the process should begin to rezone a portion of Lawton Acres to allow commercial development. Comments included: • Porter suggested it was time to move forward to rezone the area from the gully to the corner of Walker and Spur Highway to allow retail businesses to develop in that area. The zoning to conservation took place in 1984 and a lot has changed since then. • Bookey referred to the historical information included in the packet regarding the rezone to conservation and noted concerns that opening a small area could be problematic with spot -zoning issues; the property would require platting; prior use of some of the Lawton Acres property, could be problematic; there were many good reasons why the rezone to conservation was done; and he believes there will still be many who will not support a change. • Moore stated he was willing to discuss the matter further because the property is prime commercial property in Kenai. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 21 2004 PAGE 10 • Ross stated he was willing to forward the issue to the Planning 8s Zoning Commission for review; suggested administration put together preliminary ideas of how the property could be platted, as well as whether the property is deep enough to place a frontage road or whether access would have to be off Lawton Drive. • Swarner stated, if the property is rezoned, she would want it to be developed within two to three years of purchase. • Williams requested the frontage road information be prepared and added, he was personally opposed to opening the property to commercial development because of reasons stated when the property was original zoned conservation. Nate Kiel, 404 Lawton Drive, Kenai -- Kiel stated he has mixed emotions about development around the area where he lives. He and his wife put in a proposal to purchase property across the highway from Lawton Acres and were unsuccessful. He added, he believed development on that side of the road would have less impact on residential areas, however he understood why council did not want to proceed with that sale. Kiel added, his frustration had been in finding commercial real estate on the east side of town, i.e. either it is not available or not for sale. He stated, he felt the rezoning and responsible development of a portion of Lawton Acres would be worth exploring. The discussion continued, but without knowing where access would be, it was the consensus of council to place the issue on the next agenda for preliminary discussion after exploring depth of the properties, access suggestions, etc. ITEM J: REPORT OF THE MAYOR -- Mayor Williams noted the following: • He will travel to Washington, DC to attend the Police Memorial dedication and meet with congressional delegation staff on several issues, i.e. pursuing a different strategy for funding for the bluff restoration/protection project (reallocation of funds from other grant projects; a 20-year bond, to be repaid by raising the cap on sales tax to $1,000; funds available upon paying off the current bond which is scheduled for October, etc.; because of new Corps representatives and the project design already prepared by Petratrovich, Nottingham 8. Drage, encourage funds to come directly to the City instead of through the Corps, etc.) Council had no ob . ections to Williams discussing these ideas with congressional staff. • Attended the "Real Heroes Breakfast" at which Richard and Mary Warrington received the "Educator Award" for their work with the brain injury awareness group. • Will meet with Borough representatives relating to the Pebbles Mine project. ITEM K: ADMINISTRATION REPORTS a KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 21, 2004 PAGE 11 K-1. City Manager -- City Manager Snow reported the following: • She attended a meeting with Borough Mayor Bagley and other Peninsula city managers at which they discussed several issues, i.e. E-911, sales tax cap raise (Bagley is to bring the issue forward in May and they will need input from the cities); South Peninsula Ferry proposal; animal control issues; statewide sales tax; PERS opt - out program, etc. • She will be out of town from April 28-May 2 and Chief Kopp will be Acting City Manager. • The department head monthly reports were included in the packet. She noted the memorandum from Airport Manager Cronkhite in which she discussed the proposed changes to parking areas at the airport terminal. She requested council to contact her if they would like additional information and with their comments. The design and bid information will be brought back for council consideration. Porter stated she was in favor of the changes. Cronkhite stated she would provide a rough cost estimate and drawing. There were no obj ections from council to discuss the matter. Williams noted a comment from Assembly Member Superman relating to contracting law enforcement with the City for the Nikiski area. Snow stated she and Chief Kopp had already done some preliminary review. Chief Kopp stated a lot of thought had gone into the issue already and the city would not do it unless it is in the city's interest to do so. A formal discussion on the issue had not yet taken place. Swarner stated she liked the statistical information included with some of the reports, but would like comparisons from the prior year included. Moore asked Library Director Jankowska for a report on the progress of the software changeover at the library. Jankowska stated the changeover was progressing and training would begin next week. Additionally, they would be transferring to the new server and going live by June 6. K-2. Attorney -- Attorney Graves reported the following: • Planning & Zoning Commission's public hearing on the adult -oriented businesses was scheduled for April 28. The ordinance should be included on the next council meeting agenda for introduction at the May 5 meeting. • They have received calls from Palmer and Valdez relating traffic citation processing. Porter stated her concerns the pond along Marathon Road has had orange mesh left in it from when blocks of ice were removed for use at the Peninsula Winter Games. She noted she was very concerned about safety of those who swim in the pond. Williams suggested a representative of the Peninsula Winter Games be called to attend to the issue. Snow reported she investigated the issue the last time it had been brought up. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 21, 2004 PAGE 12 She learned the property is controlled by the University of Alaska Fairbanks and she spoke to a representative there about the issue. She was told a local representative would be in contact to discuss the matter. K-3. ITEM L: City Clerk -- No report. DISCUSSION L-1.
