9-1, DeWayne Craig
Mr. Craig is a resident of Forest Drive, Mr. Craig distributed
photographs he took of damage to the sand dunes on the beach and
the.embankment at the end of Forest Drive. There are large ruts
from four -wheelers and trucks driving up the bank. There has
even been a track vehicle driven up the bank by National Guard
personnel. Mr. Craig and the City have placed poles at the side
of the wall. People go around them. A sign stating "no
motorized vehicles" had been placed. It was removed. Mr. Craig*
.
stated that he has placed a bench at the end of Forest Drive.
The bench gets lots of use. Mr. Craig has also placed shrubs
(approximately $.2,000 in cost) on the hill. All of them are gone
or killed.
Mr. Craig stated that the sand dunes are an ecological area..
However, four -wheelers and trucks have made trails and ruts in

the dunes. Sand now gets blown onto the road. The dunes used to
stop this. Mr. Craig has taken license numbers of vehicles doing
the damage and called the police. In order for the police to
cite the offenders, Mr. Craig has had to identify the drivers of
the vehicle. Mr. Craig has pressed charges in the past. The
damage to the hill will take approximately 50 years to grow back.
Mr. Craig stated that this is a wanton waste of the City's
resources.
Mr. Craig is'suggesting to place more poles at the bottom of the
hill. That would help to stop the driving on the hill. Mr.
Craig would like to work with the City to put in the poles.
Craig suggested placing a wail of poles and put signs up. Also,
Mr. Craig asked that when the drivers of the vehicles can be
identified, please press charges and take action.
It was stated by City Attorney Graves that the violation would be
the operation of motor vehicles where prohibited. Such a
citation would be prosecuted much like a traffic ticket.
Councilwoman Monfor stated that she would like the City to work
with Mr. Craig to replace posts and perhaps do some seeding.
Monfor stated that the bluff area is a disgrace. She does not
feel that the police have much control of this problem. Monfor
believes it would help to block the area off and have more
enforcement of the ordinance.
Councilman Walker stated that the hillside is often used for
sledding in the winter. If the area was blocked off at the
bottom, it would be dangerous. Precautions will have to be
taken.
Mr. Craig stated that he does not want to stop the sledders.
Craig suggested using a small exa" beam or log to discourage
driving on the hill. Trucks would not be able to drive over the
beam. However, snow would cover the beams and sledding would be
able to continue. Mr. Craig suggested placing 15-20 poles in
select spots along the sand dunes. Mr. Craig believes that it
will take another ten years for the dunes to return to their
previous condition.
Public Works Director Kornelis suggested that the committee
previously suggested to work on improving the park could also
work on this problem. City Manager Brighton requested that
Council have the Administration, Public Works, Chief of Police,
and the Parks & Recreation Department figure out -what to do.
Brighton is concerned that if injury is sustained due to
placement of poles, etc., the City will be liable.
Mayor Williams suggested that when a driver of a vehicle is cited
and prosecuted, that a higher fine be given, plus the vehicle
should be confiscated.
Student City Manager Swarner suggested that they, as students,
could go back to their school and make an effort at school to
pass on the word as to the destruction being made by the use of
four -wheelers, three-wheelers, and trucks on the sand dunes and
bluff.
B-2. Derry Sparks
No. Sparks is the Chairperson of the Beautification Committee.
Sparks stated that the funding to place the remaining sidewalks
in the Memorial Park has been deleted from the budget four times.
At this time, there are approximately nine spaces left in the
park. Sparks is aware of three more spaces that will be
purchased in the near future. Sparks.stited that the sidewalks
need to be placed now. Sparks also suggested that an article can
be placed in the paper informing the citizenry of the park. Many
people, new in the area, may root be aware of the park or how to
place a living memorial there.
Mrs. Sparks also stated that the City Flag was developed by the
Beautification Committee and the Parks & Recreation Commission.
There were five flags distributed for placement. At this time,
the City flags are being used only at the Fire and Police
stations. There has not been any official dedication, no public
acknowledgement, or article in the paper. Sparks would like a
dedication of the flag.
Student Councilwoman Forbes suggested flying the flag at the
Bicentennial building. Sparks stated that the building will not
be completed before the year is over.
Mayor Williams stated that it was his responsibility to dedicate
the flags and he neglected to do so. Swarner stated that the
flag has been available for flying at City Mall . for some time.
Swarner would like the flag flying. It was stated by Clerk Freass
that the VFW is planning a Memorial Day.program. Mayor Williams
is to discuss the dedication of the flag during a portion of that
program.

resolution was brought to the meeting with the bid amounts and
award information this evening. The awarded construction bid
will have a contingency of five percent ($66,000). This is
rather low.for this type of project. Kornelis feels that the
project can go ahead with this budget. If a situation arises
that an increase in -funds is needed,,. he will,come back to
Council. Kornelie stated that the DEC requires an emergency
ventilation system in the building. A change order will need to
be brought before Council due to the -DEC not getting this

there will be requests for additional funds before the project is
completed. Kornelis added that part of the high cost of the
project is the cost for concrete. The building is earthquake

to their last night's meeting were distributed to Council at the

changes be made to the Beautification Committee meeting minutes
regarding the purchase of banners. The minutes.should reflect
that the Council chose to purchase the banners. Also, the
statement that additional sidewalks for the Memorial Park being
taken out of the budget should reflect that their was no money
budgeted for sidewalks. Also, that Councilwoman Monfor did not
request that the sidewalk monies be removed.
Mayor Williams requested from Administration that a memorandum be
brought to the next meeting in regard to budget changes. The
memorandum should state how the amendments will affect the
budget. Finance Director Brown stated that he intends to present
a work paper which will itemize a motion for each budget
amendment request. A fiscal note will also be.included as to how
the budget will.be affected. Council may then go down the list
and make their motions and discuss, pass, or fail. At this time
Brown believes there will be five amendments. if Council has any
more requests, they should inform him of requests. Brown stated

NOTIONS
Councilman Measles MOVED to sunset the Beautification Committee
and Councilman McComsey SECONDED the motion.
Councilman Smalley stated that he believes the Committee means
well. Councilwoman Monfor stated that she believes the Committee
needs some new members. The Committee forgets they are a
committee under the Parks & Recreation Commission. The Committee
should make recommendations through the Commission and the
Commission should, after discussion, bring their recommendations
to the Council.
Clerk Freas is to produce a letter to the Committee which was
written by Mayor Williams a few years ago delineating the
Committee's responsibilities. Councilwoman Swarner stated that
Page 3 (in the Commission's minutes) does not state what the
Commission said. McGillivray stated that the items suggested by
the Committee were discussed. P&R will look at the Mt. Redoubt
sign. Further, the Commission did not believe these items would
be needing to be brought to Council. The items can be handled
within the Department. P&R recommended that Ms. Sparks speak to
Council tonight.
Councilman Walker stated that he did not believe the Committee
was out -of -line with their suggestions and ideas. However, there
is no funding or capability to do all they are requesting.
Walker believes that P&R needs to decide their priorities.
Walker believes the Committee is doing a good job. The Council's
job is to say yes or no.
Councilman Measles stated that the Council should never hear from
the Beautification Committee. Councilman Smalley stated he
agrees with Councilman Walker. Smalley suggested a letter go to
P&R defining the Committee's responsibilities also.

Discussion followed regarding the increase to the Quality Asphalt
order in light of the over $10,000 limit. Quality Asphalt is not
the sole vendor as another truck has been available in the past.
Kornelis added that there have been problems in the past with
using that truck as it has had break -downs and is not as fast
putting the treatment on the road. They are paid by the hour.
Kornelis recommends using Quality Asphalt. They have a new truck
and it works better and faster.
A suggestion was made to do two separate purchase orders. Not

the other vendor's equipment. Smalley asked if there was a
potential for loss of product. Kornelis stated that he did not
think so. Kornelis added that there is another source in
Fairbanks for the CSS-1. It will be more expensive to be i:rucked
from Fairbanks. Kornelis suggested to use another governmental
agency to contract for CSS-le such as the Municipality of
Anchorage. If the City piggy -backs with Anchorage, the low bid
would be used. This has been done in the past. Brown and
Kornelis have discussed this and are convinced this is
acceptable.
Williams suggested not amending the budget, but roll any excess
funds into next year's fund and hire the supplier in the next
fiscal year. Walker stated that does not cure the immediate
problem. Williams suggested doing thirteen miles of road now and
going back later. Kornelis stated that he does not know if the
other truck is in the area. If the truck is not available, it
may solve the problem.
Williams suggested that they go with the original purchase
orders. if it is determined it is not a sole source, then deal
with it. Smalley asked Attorney Graves if they can proceed and
then amend if it determined there is a problem regarding the sole
provider. Graves stated that he believes there is a problem if
the contract is awarded and then stopped because the contractor
is not the sole.source.
Kornelis stated that no bid is required if the cost is under
$100000. Do not issue a purchase order if overt$11a j00. Cut

Williams stated that Council should direct Administration to
investigate the sole source aspect of this. If a sole source is
determined they have the directive to go to $14,401. If they are

the sole source, the purchase order should be amended to $14,401

� purchase order must stay at
$9,375. Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion.
Brown stated he agreed with this procedure, as the Council is
giving Administration the authority, under certain circumstances,
to amend the amounts. Kornelis stated that some work could be
given to the other contractor. Williams stated that could be
left to the discretion of Administration and made a part of the
amendment. A broad discretion could be given to Administration,
if the basis of what is wanted to be done is before them, i.e.
expending $43,042 for dust control. Measles agreed with the
broad discretion, but suggested that care is taken to make sure
no contractor will be complaining at the next council meeting.
By roll call vote, Council agreed with Measles' request for broad
discretion.

Councilwoman Monfor referred to the purchase order to Kenai
Supply to buy railroad ties for the Boardwalk project and asked
for an update. Kornelis stated that it is hoped that some of the
Wildwood inmates will be able to work on the retaining walls.
The Chamber has stated they will do the actual boardwalk portion.
The City's street crew have done some of the cutting of the
pilings, however, have not been able to complete the work. They
are busy working on the streets.
Monfor stated her dismay with the length of time it has taken to
complete this project. Williams stated he takes responsibility
for the City's involvement. He has found that volunteer labor is
hard to regulate. Williams stated he will not get the City
involved in another project like this. Kornelis added that there
was a delay due to getting ownership of the land. It took 1'k-2
years to get federal approval.
