MOTION:
Councilwoman Monfor MOVED for introduction of Ordinance No. 1488-
92 and Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Councilman Walker stated that he
requested this item be removed from the Consent Agenda because he
does not believe that it should be on the table. Walker stated
he objects to the introduction. He does not think the City
should be giving land to any non-profit organization that comes
along.
Smalley stated that the ordinance does not state that it is a
donation. Brown stated that the donation of property is implied.
Brown added that there is a lot of property that have assessments
owing. If the City desires to give land away, the Borough has
the right to tax that property. The people who will receive the
land must pay the taxes.
Swarner stated she is not in favor of the ordinance either.
Williams stated that the Council, by resolution, can donate land.
The Council will screen any applicants for this type of property
donation. Williams reminded Council that they agreed to give 20
lots to CIHA and agreed not to collect taxes on that property.
Habitat for Humanity (who is making this request), is agreeing to
pay the back property taxes and go on the City tax rolls when the
home is completed. Williams stated he did not believe more than
one lot a year will go to this organization. The national
organization intends to finance the property themselves. If.the
new home owner defaults, the national organization will guarantee
payment.
Walker stated that KMC 22.05.080 already provides for disposal of
lands. If it amended, it will open the door for any kind of non--
profit group•. Walker added that he believes more auctions, etc.
could be held to dispose of the property. Walker added that he
does not believe this amendment is the direction to go. The City
will offering too much. 11
McComsey asked if the City is guaranteed that this property will
go on the tax rolls and if anybody can qualify. Williams stated
the ordinance states "after completion." The property must have -
been foreclosed on for at least ten years. Smalley added that
there are very few properties that apply to that. Administrative
Howard stated that there were two pieces of property identified.
by Habitat for Humanity which were foreclosed upon for ten years.

8-12. Discussion - Time Extension/Kenai Bicentennial Visitors
& Cultural Center.
Kornelis stated that the contractor is requesting liquidated
damages for work down at the Visitors Center. The contractor has
stated that he has several subcontractors and suppliers that are
requesting full payment and the contractor is unable to pay them
in full without knowing the decision on liquidated damages.
Kornelis stated that the architect believes that no liquidated
damages should begin until after the substantial completion date.
The contract was written to allow 217 days in which to complete
the project. If the project was not completed by the time of
substantial completion, liquidated damages were to begin. After
substantial completion the contractor has 30 days to complete
work noted to be completed. If that work is not completed in
those thirty days, then liquidated damages should start again.
Kornelis stated he recommends that the contractor be allowed the
time prior to when he actually got substantial completion, but
that four days should be charged at $300/day. The contractor is
requesting extra time was needed because of the late arrival of

the hollow -metal doors. His reason is that the vendor went out
of business. Kornelis restated his recommendation to not charge
liquidated damages prior to substantial completion.
Williams asked if he was saying to charge $1400 and "call -it
good." Answer yes. Kornelis stated that he directed the 1.
architect to give the contractor until June 1 to complete the
landscaping and planting. If it is not completed by that time,
liquidated damages should begin again.
NOTIONS
Councilwoman Monfor MOVED to accept the Public Works Director's
recommendation on the closing out of the Kenai Bicentennial
Visitors and Cultural Center. Councilman Measles SECONDED the
motion.
Councilman Walker objected and asked who has been doing the
landscaping and damaging the building. Kornelis replied Jackson
Construction, but that Ward's Landscaping will be working on it
also. Walker asked if Kluge had been paid for the extension of
his contract. Brown stated he believed it was approximately
$2, 000.
Walker stated his reason for objection was that the contractor
had time, while waiting for the doors, to be doing other work.
Walker believed that no liquidated damages should be paid until
after full completion of the project.
Blake Johnson - Questioned some of the change orders submitted
during construction of the building and encouraged Council to
follow through with their decisions.
Williams stated that perhaps Council should do as Walker
suggested and that is to -take no action until the building is
100% complete. Monfor stated she agreed with Walker and added
that she thought they would not deal with liquidated damages
until the end of the construction.

RETURN TO ITEM R-14.
A document defining change orders, construction change
directives, etc. were distributed to Council for their
information.
Councilwoman Monfor stated that she thought many of these items
had already been agreed to earlier. Kornelis stated that a
change order is when the contractor, owner and architect agree on
a change in work, time, and price. A change directive is
agreeing that the work must be done, but a price has not been
agreed upon. A change directive is like stating that yes, we
know the work must be done, go ahead and do it and a price will
be agreed to later after review of the backup documents for the
work (equipment prices, work hours, etc.).
Williams pointed out that some of the changes appear to be due to
errors in design or a direct exclusion from the design. Williams
asked if Council approves the work if the intent is to get
reimbursed from the architect. Kornelis stated that these items
have to do with the contractor.
Williams stated that he will agree to go forward, but with the
understanding the Council will revisit the costs, etc. Kornelis
stated he can continue as he has with other directives. Kornelis
stated he will forward a letter to Livingston -Slone and state
Council's directive that the work is approved, however
Livingston -Slone has not been relieved of any responsibilities.
Measles questioned Item H-14a and the difference in cost shown.
Kornelis stated that the items will be verified by the invoice
the contractor receives when purchasing the item. More
discussion followed. Kornelis stated that the verification of
the invoice, the specifications, and Section 7.3.6 of the
contract insure what price will be paid for work included in each
directive. These are not -to -exceed prices. Kornelis stated that
the backup documents will be reviewed, other vendors will be
called, and invoices will be checked if the cost of the work and.
materials seems to be more than necessary.
MOTION:
Councilman Smalley MOVED to approve of the construction change
directives on the Congregate Housing Project, Items A-K be
approved; have the Public Works Director attach the letter to it
that indicates that this will be researched, and if in fact,.
