Discussion - Kenai Peninsula Borough Economic Development District, Inc. Business Office and Incubator. Williams referred to the city manager's memorandum included in the packet which discussed the EDD's search for office space and business innovation space (incubator). Williams added the memorandum was very clear in stating what administration's RFp., would entail. Manninen stated there had been no new occurrences since he wrote the memo. EDD will be advertising for a request for proposal. EDD would like 2,000 sq. ft. for the office space and 20,000 sq. ft. for the business innovation center. Manninen explained EDD's lease expires the end of September. They will be on a month -to -month lease after that until they find other space. Bill Root - Business Development Director for EDD. Distributed a handout which discussed their budget requirements, awards they received, the four areas in which they operate, their organizational chart and projects in progress. Root explained the initial reason for having EDD in Kenai was based on the availability of properties at the time. The Business development program is looking for the 20,000 sq. ft. for the business incubator. The incubator would be a tool to. assist in the business development program, and small businesses during their first few years of growth. They offer "gap" financing to small businesses. The incubator would be there to train management. The incubator would offer a low rent society and would give networking during the businesses' development. Swarner asked if EDD has looked at the Old Carr's Mall. Root stated yes, they have discussed the building with Carr-Gottstein. At this time it is not viable because Carr-Gottstein wants to E KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JULY 6, 1994 PAGE 9 lease the property at a regularrental amount which would be difficult to lease back to small businesses at a lower rate. Monfor stated one of EDDA's committee looking for properties recommended the Burton Carver building on Kalifornsky Beach Road which has contaminated soils. Monfor added Mayflower (bus company) would not touch that building. Monfor stated she could not believe EDD would leave Kenai with its core business area, airport and Spur Road traffic and move to that location or others on that road which require repair, etc. Monfor added she could not understand EDD•s wish to move out of Kenai with what is available in Kenai for EDD and with all the building space available in the city. Also after all the support the city of Kenai has given to the program. Monfor asked if everybody working for EDD lived in Soldotna. Root stated no. Root explained the Burton Carver property is now owned by a trust company. The property would not be acceptable until the trust is done with the contaminated progress. The trust company could then givetheilproperty to in EDD. Root added a similar situation exists with the cost of the Uinited Building Supply building. It would cost about half of what other buildings cost. They also must keep in -mind the overhead/ operating costs attributed to different buildings. Monfor stated the Tangent building is half empty at this time . Monfor added she wanted the EDD Board to remember Kenai is a very aggressive city, has supported EDD-and has a lot to.offer. A small business owner would want to be in -Kenai,. Monfor added she spoke for all the council as they all feel the same. Williams Stated he understood the RFP will be going out in the next newspaper edition. Williams suggested.council ask administration to do the best job possible to put together an RFP either with another party or on its own. The Council will need. to follow up with this situation and spend a large suit of money. if follow through on the whole thing.. Councilman Measles asked why and if any other areas (where EDD.is considering to move) are offering them financial aid. Measles added he would strongly object to putting any amourit.of money into their move. Measles suggested the city could.drop all its support to the EDD. Measles stated the city could help them relocate, but no financial aid. , KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES JULY b, 1994 PAGE 10 Williams stated the City could review the RFP and do something to assist them to find space. Williams added there are other areas on the Peninsula who would like them to situate there. Root stated it may appear EDD is desirous of moving. Root explained it was the direction of the Board that they should look for other locations. They had various reasons why they want to move. Rent costs is probably the biggest problem. The Board was very clear to EDD staff to look at everything possible. They have not looked at the Tangent Building. No one talked to them about that building. They have been working through a real estate office. They have not closed the door on anything. They are look for buildings which may have grant funding available. Swarner asked if they have looked at the Benco building. Root answered no, probably because of required parking space availability and possible light manufacturing activities. Swarner stated there are other buildings available in the area as well. Measles stated people that have buildings available do not deal through the real estate offices. The EDD staff is not all new to the community and should be aware of space available in the area. Swarner added the Professional Building is totally vacant. Manninen stated they will respond to the RFP with whatever building and whatever lease -back situation of what is already there and we will see on August 12 if anyone wants to do anything for EDD. There are a lot of buildings available and potentially, vacant buildings. Williams suggested administration see what they can come up with. There is a lot of empty floor space in the community. so much you would think people owning them would be wanting to make a good deal. Manninen stated Root has a lot of experience in incubators. No action was taken. H-7. Discussion - Set Work session Date to Review Color Video Proposals and General Concerns. A work session was set for Tuesday, July 12, 1994 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers. The purpose of the work session is to isreview color video proposals and discuss general council concerns.

The memorandum also included information as to the time frame in which the appeal must be heard, etc. MOTION: Councilwoman Monfor MOVED to set the Board of Adjustment hearing to hear the appeal of the Planning & Zoning Commission's approval of an encroachment permit in Deepwood Park for 7:00 p.m., July 200 1994.

Kornelis referred to the letter included in the packet which explained the need for the change order. Henry Knackstedt, the project engineer stated several driveway culverts had been damaged by the utility companies and/or snowplowing, etc. and needed to be replaced. Councilman Bookey asked why the damages were not taken into account when the project, was being designed. Knackstedt answered (from the audience) the culverts were covered with snow at that time and they were not aware of the damages-. Also, they wanted to leave the driveways in place.
