MOTION: KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 5, 2006 PAGE 4 Council Member Moore MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 2006-15 and Council Member Swarner SECONDED the motion. Bob Peters, Old Town, Kenai -- Referring to Council Member Boyle's comments regarding the sale of City property, noted he felt the concern was not with retaining the property for the future but for getting a fair deal. Peters indicated he came before Council previously to say it was not a good idea to sell all the property in Kenai but rather keep it for the next generation. Peters added he felt the property may be ideal for an assisted living facility. There being no other public wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed. Council Member Swarner stated she disagreed with Peters and noted her pleasure the lots would be out of City ownership and onto the property tax rolls. Swarner recalled the costs to the city in getting the properties back. Swarner expressed concern with the clause stating "with a 10% discount for cash" as it appeared the price of $317,000 would be reduced by ten percent (10%) if paid by cash. Attorney Graves stated the price of $317, 000 was inclusive of the ten percent discount and suggested the clause be changed to "which includes a 10% discount for cash." MOTION TO AMEND: Council Member Swarner MOVED to amend Resolution 2006-15 to change the clause "with a 10% discount for cash" to "which includes a 10% discount for cash." This clause is found in the first, second, and last paragraph of the resolution. Council Member Boyle SECONDED the motion. VOTE ON AMENDMENT: *Student Representative Krusen: Yes Massie Yes Ross Yes j Molloy Yes Boyle I Yes Porter Yes Moore Yes Swarner I Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. Moore made the following comments: • He received a lot of input on this resolution and the one positive note was that when sold it would put the property on the City's tax rolls. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 5, 2006 PAGE 5 He is concerned there was not a more recent appraisal for the property. It was noted the value of the property was based on an appraisal made in 2000. Based on the last appraisal date, he questioned whether or not the asking price for the lots was realistic and felt the City should wait to sell the lots until a new appraisal is acquired. He noted the previous sale to this developer of property in the back portion of the subdivision was made with conditions utilities be installed which may have been done. However, no other development had been made and he would hate to see the front lots go undeveloped for any extended period of time. He indicated those in the neighborhood want to see the lots developed as it would increase their property values. He would not support the resolution, however, did not want to vote it down. Council Member Ross agreed with Moore related to the appraisal and added, he would not support the resolution without a more recent appraisal. MOTION TO TABLE: Council Member Moore MOVED to table Resolution 2006-15 until a current appraisal on the subject property is available to review. Council Member Ross SECONDED the motion.

MOTION: Council Member Ross MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 2006-17 and requested UNANIMOUS CONSENT. Council Member Swarner SECONDED the motion. There were no public comments. Discussion followed with Council comments including: • The project was scheduled for this year. • The difference in the budgeted figure of $8,000 and the bid total of $67,550 was explained by the Building Official, i.e. the $8,000 in the budget referred to the five-year projected maintenance program and was the cost to only paint the building; the bid amount of $67,550 represented stripping and painting. • The Recreation Center would not have to be closed during stripping and painting, however, some coordination will probably be necessary.

The Borough treated every community the same. • The listing in the memo indicated Economic Development District (EDD) and Kenai Peninsula Opportunities. It was noted, Kenai Peninsula Opportunities or Blueberry Development was leasing space from the EDD and it was uncertain why they were listed as a property owner. • It was questioned if the value put on the Oilers was from the baseball field or the property in Old Towne.

Parks & Recreation Commission -- Council Member Moore reported the April meeting had been cancelled. Student Representative Krusen reported there was discussion of putting some sort of artificial surface under the ice in the multi -purpose facility to allow for other sport practices, i.e., Little League, football, soccer, etc. He suggested, the revenue could be handled much like that with hockey. Mayor Porter suggested Krusen discuss the issue further with members of the Parks & Recreation Committee. I-6. Planning & Zoning Commission -- Council Member Ross reported the minutes from the March 22nd meeting were in the packet and gave a brief summary of action taken.

Moore expressed concern that inviting the study may affect the community. There were no objections to signing the letter. f There is a new business in Kenai called Kenai Restorations; they will repair antique furniture and are located in the old Napa building. An open house is scheduled for April 6th from 4 to 7 p.m. to which Council was invited. • Asked if there were any objections to scheduling a work session with City Manager Koch to discuss the direction of the City of Kenai. Swarner suggested it be scheduled for 6 p.m. prior to the next Council meeting on April 19th. There were no objections. • There have been several people off Angler Drive very concerned about the LID issue and the fact they have to go through so much effort to get a petition readied and after six months have it expire. Administration indicated the six months was not dictated by ordinance and was merely a policy of the City. Attorney Graves noted, although there was no deadline for a petition, because of property turnover, it had always been six months and work will begin on rewriting the LID portion of the code to modernize it and one issue that will be dealt with is providing better guidance on the duration of a petition. Porter suggested the duration be changed to one year. • Requested a report related to an event center and Public Works Manager La Shot noted, a proposal would be forthcoming from the Denali Commercial Management, Inc. • She has been working with Kaleidoscope, an elementary school for arts and science, who are interested in putting a revolving art display in City Hall or in the Council Chambers, ITEM K: ADMINISTRATION REPORTS K-1. City Manager -- City Manager Koch reported the following: • The draft budget has been provided to Council. • No deal has been worked out between Copper River Seafoods for Crane Station #3 at the dock. The bid package is being reworked and it should be finalized before the next Council meeting. • The rewrite of KMC, Title 21, Chapters 5 through 10 related to airport leasing was forwarded to the Airport Commission for their review and comments. It was also reported, copies of the amendments were also forwarded to the Kenai Economic Development Strategy (KEDS) for review. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 5, 2006 PAGE 13 • He will contact Tim Dillon with the Arctic Winter Games to arrange a meeting with their Board of Directors to discuss the possibility of being reimbursed for the overtime expenses incurred by the City during the Games. • He has not had the opportunity to look at the property damage on bluff, however, he reviewed the paperwork and planned to prepare a report for the next council meeting. • Letters sent to the federal and state delegation regarding congressional grant requests were included in the packet. • He received an email regarding SB-247 and it appeared to be the vehicle with the most traction for Municipal Revenue Sharing and it also deals with PERS. The revenue sharing seemed to be the same in all of the bills that are out there and it would mean about $75,000 to the City of Kenai. • He made contact with Senator Green's office, the Co -Chair of Finance, and was informed that SB-247 would not be scheduled for a couple of weeks. PERS is handled differently in this piece of legislation and the dollar numbers might change but the logic behind it would not. A brief discussion took place related to the bill and the unfounded liability. • An accounting of empty buildings would be taken and letters sent to the building owners. • He met with Environmental Conservation in Anchorage and they stated support of finding new wells rather than providing treatment to current wells. K-2. Attorney -- Attorney Graves reported: • The changes to Title 21 that went to the Airport Commission and KEDS deal with the property in the Airport Reserve. He is now working on Chapter 15 which is the airport property outside the reserve. The changes to Chapter 15 will not be as comprehensive as Title 21 and these changes should be distributed to staff late next week. These items were separated so they were more manageable. Council will be provided an information copy. K-3. City Clerk -- No report. ITEM L: DISCUSSION L-l. Citizens -- None L-2. Council -- Moore -- • The Library is conducting a community survey and he encouraged Council to participate. • Has no problem with extending the life of a petition but is concerned about the length because of situations where property owners have changed and the KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING APRIL 5, 2006 PAGE 14 new owners may be unaware of an assessment for an LID on their property. The City needs to be aware of that if it extends out beyond a year. Swarner -- • Will not be able to attend the Airport Commission meeting on April 13. • The Point, a new restaurant in the old Katmai, is opening on April 12. • Gave a brief report on her trip to Russia and showed the gifts received.
