There was a Bull explanation of this at the time, but no action was taken by Council. The City paid Spruce $10,000 to correct. Administration recommends discontinuing the claim against M.

V� City Manager Brighton noted there are special ADAP funds available for acquisition of land for airports. Mayor Wagoner added, FAA was very receptive to the suggestion, they said at least 1/2 and maybe all. The problems ares a. The land is on the public tax roles b. He is not sure much is developable without wetlands permits. Councilman Measles explained, part of the problem is, there will be a lot of dirt taken out.It will have to be disposed of somewhere. Most of the places will require permit to set it aside. One thought was to dispose in the swamp area and build up to usable property. Councilman Ackerly noted it started as a simple project, it is now $3-1/2 Million. Councilman Measles explained, some things changed after the meeting with FAA. They will accept this. Airport Committee Member Sibley spoke. Regarding the $3 Million project. He has 4 engineers that say they will build it for $1/2 Million. This is required by Council.

There is $8 Million left from in 1983 FAA funds. Mayor Wagoner replied he and City Manager Brighton met with FAA and were told there were no funds available except $600,000 for Kenai. Anything else would be less than $400,000. Councilman Measles said he would like to go to FAA but do the engineering at the same time. City Manager Brighton said FAA has $8 Million available for certain KENAI CITY COUNCIL MARCH 7, 1984 Page 9 VOTE s funding. Kenai airport and projects do not qualify. Council set priorities at airport expansion and taxiway, these applications are in FAA. We are also pursuing State funding. They may have $2.7 Million. but we do not have this yet. Motion passed by unanimous consent. MOTIONS VOTES Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilwoman Bailie, that the Airport Committee and Public Works Dept. prepare request -for -proposals for float plane basin &4sign build project and at the same time Administration contact FAA for any possible short term monies available.

Regarding the proposed Assessment District, Regency Pointe. Problems ores i. The City has taken action on an easement. There is none into that area till action is taken. ii. Administration does not have a problem with the saaeaament district but Council needs to make a determination on Candlelight. Will it be part of the assessment district? We have to have Federal government approval of all dedications. This is dedicated to parks and recreation. If we do not get approval, the petitioners will have to dedicate the full 60 ft. i. Will the City pay for the upgrade or add to the assessments? ii. Does Counci= want to propose to the Federal government 30 ft. of ours with Chair 30 ft. on Windsor? iii. Do we pay or does it come part of the assessment district? They have no access to their area. Mayor Wagoner said they had said they wanted access to private property, not development.

Notion passed by unanimous consent, of The Fire Dept. would like to cancel their EMT contract with Dr. Hanson. Fire Chief Winston explained, the contract they have now with Or. Hansen requires they contact a physician before administering drugs. At the time this woo propered, there woo no 24 hour service in the hospital emergency room, there is now. It would be simpler to use an ER doctor for sponsor. It is redundant to contact Dr. Hanson for instructions, then call the hospital for further instructions. Also, Dr. Hansen is buoy and difficult to contact. The Emergency Room is almost always available. The hospital doctors can do ' the required monthly review. Dr. Hansen is limited to those he takes care of or his own patients. It would be about the same cost, the contract is $6,000, taking part of the malpractice insurance would be about the 4 same. Councilman Measles asked if the hospital doctors would supply the training. Chief Winston replied they j felt they would get more training because they would be I working closer with them. Councilman Measles noted 1 there were many times when the patient was transported to Or. Hansen's office rather than the hospital to save time. We would lose this. Chief Winston replied there were times when they were on the way to the hospital and had to return to the clinic. He has not spoken to Dr. Hansen, Mayor Wagoner suggested contacting him first rather than aendipg a letter. Councilman Wise objected to discussion at a public meeting before speaking to him.
