MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM: Eland Conway, Airport Manager
DATE: September 12, 2022
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3317-2022 - Increasing Estimated Revenues and
Appropriations in the Airport Special Revenue Fund and Appropriating
Funds in the Airport Snow Removal Capital Project Fund
The Kenai Municipal Airport (ENA) applied for FAA grant funds to install a sliding cantilever gate,
and acquire a snow removal equipment edge light cleaning attachment on August 9, 2022. The
FAA provided the grant agreement for execution on September 9, 2022, and the agreement was
fully executed on Monday, September 12, 2022.
This ordinance transfers and appropriates the 6.25% ($9,375) Airport share of the $150,000
project from the Airport Special Revenue Fund to the Airport Snow Removal Capital Project Fund.
It also accepts and appropriates the 93.75% ($140,625) FAA share of the project into the Airport
Snow Removal Capital Project Fund. A separate Resolution authorizes the execution of this grant
due to timing restrictions.
This capital project includes the installation of a sliding cantilever gate, and edge light cleaning
attachment for the snow blower. The sliding cantilever gate makes available an additional 36,000
square feet of snow storage area in an area where snow storage is limited, is required to be
hauled away, and encroaches on wing tip clearance. The edge light cleaning attachment is fit to
an existing snow blower, it will significantly increase light cleaning efficiency and reduce by half
the amount of equipment and personnel required to traditionally clear edge lights.
Council's support is respectfully requested.

$19,500 currently exists, less fees, real estate commissions, and less $1,000 as payment
and in addition, once the net proceeds are received the City shall release its lien on the
