MOTION$ Councilman Smalley XOV$D to approve Change Order No. 1 for the telemetry system installation project in the amount of $5,276.00. Councilman Measles 8ECONDED the motion. There were no objections. 80 ORDXRED. MOTION! N-7. Discussion - Request for State Grants/New Animal Control Shelter. Kornelis stated the blueprints/plans were available for council to review. Also there was information included in the packet explaining the need for an upgraded facility, The meeting stood at ease from 8:46 p.m. to 8:50 p.m. for council to review the plans. Council -reviewed and discussed the memoranda included in the packet. Animal Control officer Godek stated the 1994 year's end report would be available at the end of January as they had just gotten done with the disposition of December's animals. Williams stated the animal shelter was rated lower on the CIF list because of the need for water wells. He would really like to see if matching grant money might be available in Juneau and if it is, build the shelter. Councilwoman Monfor asked if there was a chance of getting funding from the Borough. Williams stated he would talk with Mayor Gilman about it and request that he take the discussion to the Assembly. Williams added he would like the media to take a tour of the building in order that the story would get some media attention. At this time approximately 251,000 people are being served by the shelter and that is part of'the problem. There is a tremendous amount of exposure to more than the Kenai community. Smalley reported he spoke with an Assembly representative and was told there is a potential for funding from the Assembly. They. have Borough money for animal control. The unfortunate aspect of KENAI CITY JANUARY 18, • Page 17 COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES 1995 the project is the cost. The question from the citizenry would be why must an animal shelter be this costly. Smalley it iscostlysuggested the press might be able to get the point across and why it is so badly needed.Smalley malesonoted the animalsent and shelter offers concerns of safe ty Ployees, others who enter the building. Godek stated the facility cannot einstitution.anTheacostnper complex. it must be built likean square foot for animal shelters nationwide is $90/sf.

There was a lengthy discussion in regard to the lighting and the humidification problems at the Center. Sill Riuge - Architect and i ifrmultithe mediabuilding. exhibitsKluge and all stated the Center was des gnedor the exhibits require different environments, i.e. some need low humidification and some high. Kluge agreed that when art work isexhibited ia builugegl the W G lighting needs to be limited. g good recommended it. Glazing would cost approximately $1,600. Glazing would add a third pane of glass whichwould action as ait storm window. This pane would be additions would be clear. Adding tubes over the fluorescent lights would be a good idea, however he did not know how much of the UV rays would be screened out. Kluge also suggested the lights be turned off in the exhibit rooms when there is no one in the rooms. Kluge discussed the humidification with the engineer who worked on the design. His recommendation was that to take care of the exhibits properly, it needs to bedone on material -type basis and control the environment at each displaycase. Bookey stated he agreed with Kluge. Bookey reported he spent an hour with the director and curator of the Center. He is concerned the building is wanting to be used for more than what it was originally designed. It was not planned to become a Sm ithsonian-type institution. Bookey also discussed the humidification problem with them. He feels that without more KENAI CITY JANUARY 18, Page i8 COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES 1995 engineering or design, adding a humidification system could be more detrimental to the exhibits. Individual cabinets and cases that are humidity controlled may be better. Bookey reported there is grant money available to have a diagnosis made of the building in regard to humidification. He would like council to hold off on putting money into a humidification system and have the Center apply for the grant. Bookey added he was dismayed that the curator of the Center had not been included in discussions in regard to the humidification system. Kluge stated he used the information from the memorandum forwarded to the City and then to him from Sue Carter when the problem was first discussed with council. Kluge reported the damage to the Bicentennial quilt was because the quilt was against a light. Swarner stated she appreciated the suggestion to turn off the lights in the exhibit rooms when no one is in the rooms. Swarner , asked Kluge if he thought about glazing the north windows when designing the building. Kluge answered no, because they are north windows. Swarner stated she was concerned there was not' more research done at the time of the design. Swarner asked why they were not using full spectrum lights in the building now. Kluge answered the cost is very high for those types of lights. Swarner stated she would like to go ahead with the tective glazing on the north windows and light sleeves on tho efluorescent lights. Swarner also agreed they should hold off on installen a humidification system. g Kluge stated he believed it would be wise to find out how much lighting would be lost with installation of sleeves before the are installed. y Kornelis stated he was informed it would lower the lights from 2,700 to 21100. Kluge stated he did not think that would be a concern. Williams stated the discussion could go on for years. They really do not know what they should do for the agreed and added they did not have the necessary rinformationkto make a good decision. Bookey stated if applied for, the grant could be awarded and the work could be done within six months. Bookey suggested special display cases be purchased for specific items. Kluge stated that at some time in the future, the north end may be expanded. At that time special cases could be built into the room for specific items. • U • KENAI CITY JANUARY 18, Page 19 COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES 1995 Williams stated the humidity problem happens only a small amount of time in the year. If a humidification system is installed, it may be necessary to de -humidify the building as well. Williams added he believed this was a redundant conversation. Williams suggested glasses of water be placed in the different cases for individual humidification. Kim Booth, Director of the Center, stated they are placing glasses of water in the cases at this time. Councilman Smalley stated he was in favor of the Center applying for the grant. Smalley asked if the diagnosis would investigate the problem of the UV rays as well. Smalley added they needed to find out the problems of the UV lighting before doing the glazing because the glazing may not correct the problem. Kluge stated he did not think anything could be hurt by lowering the UV's. It would only lower the amount of lighting for the room. Discussion followed about the loss of lighting with the sleeves. Kluge stated he did not think it would hurt to add the glazing or put sleeves on the lights. If the UV's are reduced, it will help the facility. Another answer would be to have the janitor turn the lights off at night when no one is in the room. Williams suggested the humidification problem be held until the Center can apply for the grant. Swarner asked how long it would take to have the glazing and sleeves installed. Kluge stated if the materials were in stock, probably a few days. Bookey stated he would like to have spend the $1,500 for glazing and sleeves. The W problem is from the outside lighting (the street light). There is more natural light in this facility than was in Ft. Kenay where many of the exhibits had been prior to the opening of the Center. Williams suggested the glazing and sleeves be installed and wait on the diagnosis of the humidification problem. MOTION: Councilman Smalley MOVED to install the glazing, W tube guards and bulbs and Councilwoman Swarner SECONDED the motion and requested MQUIMOUB CONSENT. There were no objections. 80 ORDERED. B-9. Discussion - vintage Pointe Manor - 20 Additional Units. Kornelis informed Council a full cost estimate was available for anyone to review. An additional boiler (to handle the heat) and KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 18, 1995 IS Page 20 the installation of an elevator will be required. More information regarding those items was included in the memorandum included in the packet. The total cost estimate for construction of a 20-unit addition is $2,360,000. Kornelis added schematic drawings of the building were displayed in the Chambers. The addition will not look like an addition, but part of the original building. Kornelis reported another consideration is that the addition will extend into the right-of-way. The right-of-way can be narrowed to 50 feet. This will require approval from the Planning & Zoning Commission. 1illiams noted the cost for the addition is estimated at $117/sq. ft. ASHA has suggested the cost for construction should not be greater than $145/sq. ft. With this information he could go to ASHA for financing. The grant money available will have to be determined and what cost there would be to the City. How to handle the debt will also have to be determined. There may be a 40 way of revenue debt where this will become a stand-alone facility. Finance Director Brown stated he and Attorney Graves talked about this a long time ago. There is a regulation about "ten users or less." With 20 additional units, this would not work. If one user could be a corporate entity, that rents the apartments, that might be okay. They did not explore the situation anymore than that. Williams suggested directing the Administration to determine what the operating criteria would be for operating the facility and consider financing short of going to a vote. Williams added he believed the City could go to a corporate structure function under the auspices of the City government. Attorney Graves stated they might be able to do that, however, the question would be how to market the bonds. Could bonds be sold if they were from a housing corporation. Councilwoman Monfor stated she had strong feelings about borrowing federal money which has restrictions. She likes the integrity of the housing facility as it is now. It is already known the facility pays for itself. Brown stated the rent would not pay the debt service for S financing the entire project. Monfor stated she would want "no strings" money. KENAI CITY JANUARY 18, Page 21 COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES 1995 Williams stated any money from HUD or ASHA is basis- The restrictions would only affect th on a percentage units financed by their funding. a percentage of Measles stated he agreed with Monfor' He would Private financing. .d rather go to Williams stated he believed the Council was saying looks good and they should continue examining Pote the prospect g pote financing. council agreed, ntial --=-1 ADMINIBTRATrn� �a�w.....w Mayor a• Renai Municipal Ai distributed by 19,i Airport Williams noted the pictures Jets rpoir es had been diverted the line of Manager Ernst which parked at the airport.

The review would be part of the Commission's ongoing work. Smalley added he is also Par het ofthe sing the right think and continuing to responsible. responsibility would be to continually review the City's ordinances, etc. Williams noted La Shot's� it now hasandum and l7 the rohibit d usesdated The Borough ordinance wherei P City had been told the ordinance was to be a shell.

He believes the City's actions were correct and if the zoning ordinances are reviewed now, it may send a message that there is a problem with the ordinances. He would not want a knee-jerk reaction with this either. In referring to La Shot's memorandum, Measles strongly urged that no review be made of the City's zoning ordinances at this time. Consensus of the Council was to not review the ordinances. e. Ambulance Information - Williams reported information ' regarding the proposed ambulance fee has been sent to approximately 40 citizens. t. Alaska Tourism Marketing Council - Williams referred to the letter from the Kenai Visitors Bureau stating they had no objections to the City's letter nominating Marion Nelson to the Alaska Tourism Marketing Council.

Municipal Basic services program (AMBs) - Williams referred to the draft letters to Senator Salo and Representative Navarre in support of the AMBS. Williams asked if Council had any objections to sending the letters. There were no objections. h. Foundry Proposal - Williams reported he will be meeting with a person who is interested in situating a foundry in Kenai where they would produce bronze and aluminum castings. Williams added because of this meeting, he will not be available to attend the meeting at the Borough with Seward's Mayor Crane. Williams invited other councilmembers to attend. i. Cunningham Park Update - Williams reported he will discuss Information Item 10 (added at the beginning of the meeting) with Lobbyist Ashley Reed during his visit to Juneau. j.

Williams noted the information included from the Clerk that $200 had been budgeted for such a donation. Williams also noted that the information from the Peninsula Winter Games stated a full -page advertisement's cost was $250. Williams asked if Council wished to raise their donation to cover the cost of a full -page advertisement. Councilwoman Monfor stated she did not want to make a donation. Monfor noted the information indicated there are no board of directors who are residents of Kenai, nor are any of the KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 18, 1995 40 Page 24 activities planned to be held in Kenai. Monfor suggested if Council wants to advertise, a quarter -page, $100 ad would be sufficient. Council consensus was not to make a donation. • • k.
