PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
A. ROLL CALL
Present: 'tom Wagoner, John Wise, Vincent• O'Reilly,
Betty Glick, Ray Measles
Absents Ron Malston (arrived 7:30 PM), Dick,
Mueller (excused)
A-1 Agenda Approval
1. Mayor O'Reilly said there were no bids received
on item C-15, Res. 82-45. fie asked that the
item be deleted from the agenda.
Council agreed to the change.
B. PERSONS PRESENT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD
B-1 Vern Frykholm - Land Appraisals
Mr. Frykholm was not present, this item was delayed.
B-2 Jerry Holland - Acceptance of waste Disposal for
City Residents
Mr. Holland said he thought the City was putting an
undue hardship on the citizens with the charge for
septic waste. The annual fee is very little lower
than the charge for a one-time use. Normally a
residential system will be 1000 gallons. When we
pump, we pump water also, which will bring it up
to maybe 1500 gallons to be disposed of. $10 per
100 gallons, or. $150 per dump fee for City residents
pumping fee makes it prohibitive. Normally pumping
should be annually, those with problems must do it
more times than that. People may pump on the surface
illegally when cost is a factor. He asked Council
to reconsider the ordinance or make a more reason-
able figure, about $3 per 100 gallons or $45 per
dump fee. Councilman Wagoner noted Mr. Holland had
said a lot of people run into problems when they
purchase a new home. Aren't systems inspected by
DEC when they are purchased? Mr. Holland replied,
yes, but you don't know what is under ground. He
used as an example a now house that was approved
and financed, but the only system was a pipe running
into a rubbish pile. Also, systems can fail. The
majority of failures are a result of neglect or lack
of knowledge on maintenance. Mayor O'Reilly asked,
what is the average cost for service? Mr. Holland
replied, he recommends once a year service. The
charge above the dump fee, within a one mile radius,
is $115 to $150. Councilwoman Glick asked if a cost
estimate had been done? Finance Director Brown
replied, no, in his memo he had said Public Works
Director Kornelis had obtained ideas from other
localities, but it was not based on a cost analysis.
Councilman Wagoner said even at $10 per 100 gallons,
they are still getting off cheaper than those on a
monthly fee. City Manager Brighton said it is $216
per year on sewage for a user, a one time dump fee
would be $150. Mr. Holland asked, why should users
be penalized for a full year's service if they use
it just one time? He added, there are some areas
where houses are built on clay and no matter what
they do, they will not have drainage and will have
to pump more often. Councilman Wagoner said the
waste is so much more concentrated he cannot equate
that.

Council agreed to leave the fees as -is.
8-1 Vern Frykholm - Land Appraisals
Mr. Frykholm explained in the past the appraisals
have been brief to save money, for this large one
this year, they thought they would make it a complete
report and let Council review it. He reviewed his
procedures. He summarized the land sales of last
April. He analyzed them and explained how they
were being treated. Then he pulled 6 additional
leases that were used as comparable data. He re-
viewed 24 leases from Soldotna, he thought it would
be good to correlate Kenai and Soldotna. He com-
pared these on a chart. He added, 40 hour$ of
research went into this report. City (Manager
Brighton said the appraisal section of the report
is being made available to the Council. Mr.
Frykholm added, that Council should feel free to
call him or any appraiser involved if they have
any questions.
COUNCILMAN MALSTON ARRIVED AT THIS TIME. (7 00 PM)
Mayor O'Reilly asked Mr. Frykholm how his appraisals
tracked with assessments. Mr. Frykholm replied,he
did not found any consistency.
C. PUBLIC HEARINGS
C-1 Ordinance 736-81 - Repealing KMC, Reducing City
Sales Tax from 3% to 26
Councilman Wise asked that before Council moves on
adoption, he would ask for audience response.
There was no public comment.
No action was taken on this ordinance.
C-2 Ordinance 769-82 - Amending KMC, Amending Airport
Manager and Senior Citizen Coordinator Positions
MOTION s
Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilwoman
Glick, to adopt the ordinance.
There was no public comment.
Councilwoman Glick asked City Manager Brighton to
substantiate the reason for the ordinance. Mr.
Brighton explained, the Senior Citizen Coordinator
is a range 10. He felt with the magnitude of the
responsibilities, she should be put to range 12.
She has to apply for grants and handle the museum,
(hours, personnel, etc.) with the number of people
involved, the magnitude and variety of the job, she
is entitled to this. Regarding the Airport Manager,
that is a $5 Million investment, and he has maior
responsibility for the leases. He has no additional
help and he should be made a department head because
of the magnitude of responsibilities. Councilman
Measles asked, when did the Senior Citizen Coordina-
tor take over the responsibilities of the museum?
Mr. Brighton replied, it is run by a Board, but she
does the hiring of personnel. This has eliminated
many problems the City has had before. Councilman
Malston said he did not realize we had anything to
do with the musuum, it was run by a board. Mr.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL
MAY 19, 1982
Page 3
Brighton explained, we pay the individuals employed
by the museum. We have had many problems with running
it, we did this with the consent of the Board. It
has been 10 times smoother this way. Councilman
Wise asked, what happens next year when we have a
new Senior Citizen Center? This is just an interim
solution. Mr. Brighton replied, even without the
museum, she has responsibilities that mean she should
be a 12.

was effective date of the ordinance.
^ ` MOTION s
-'-I! Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilwoman
Glick, to adopt the ordinance as amended.
There was no public comment.
MOTION, Amendments
Councilman Wise moved, seconded by Councilman
Malston, to amend the ordinance to delete section
.z
1, last sentence, to read, "Any remaining interest
revenues are dedicated to the General Fund Capital
Improvement Reserve."
Councilman Wise explained, he felt interest revenues
'
are variable, uncertain and difficult to anticipate.
Data shows investment returns are 12%, they were at
,�•�
13t. As moneys are spent, our availability of funds
will decrease. If we use funds for Candlelight, Linwood,
funds will not be available for investing. They should
} be used for the City as a whole as capital improvement
=
funds. One time funds could evaporate overnight and
should not be used in operations of the City. He
felt interest rates will drop and our interest will
decrease. To plan on this for day to day operations
_
-
is fraught with dangers. Councilman Wagoner said it
,,�,
would be foolhardy to dedicata all to capital im-
provement reserve. We have close to $1 Million in
there now. The sooner we use these, the better. We
should not continue to build up. City Manager Brighton
said this ordinance gives us 2 options, to general
11 fund reserve or capital improvement reserve. With
j
the amendment, you are locked into one. It is the
'-•
prerogative of the Council the way it is now.
Councilman Wise said there ;ave been fund balances
__
in the bond issues since it was passed because these
things have not been built. We have drained off all
1 interest for other activities. Had we allowed funds
r
11 to accrue, we would have close to $1 Million to build
the civic center. It may have been necessary at the
time because of financial difficulties, but it is not
s; necessary ary ztQse.

MOTION:
Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilman
Measles, to adopt the resolution.
Councilman Wise said he cannot vote for this. It is
similar to the other one, but that one was committed
before and we had to do the work. But this one should
be borne by the property owner. Councilwoman Glick
agreed, adding we should not use the money to enhance
the value of the land for the owner. She suggested
Council sit down and discuss policy as to whether we
will allow this. Public Works Director Kornelis said
he has no opinion, this was at the request of the
property owner. We are getting requests for this type
of thing and have no set policy. Mayor O'Reilly
asked if this was installed yet. Mr. Kornelis replied
no, a 4" sewer line has been installed, he asked for
a 6" but settled for a 411. He has asked for a sewer
line. Councilman Measles said the owner and contractor
'
should settle this without City involvement. City
Manager Brighton asked, if this is not adopted, would
that necessitate cutting into a new paved street? Mr.
---
Kornelis replied yes. Councilwoman Glick said if
the owner pays for it, he should make sure it is done
-
now.

Motion failed unanimously by roll call vote.
C-13 Resolution 82-43 - Transfer of Funds - Main St.
Loop & Barnacle Way - $9,266
Councilman Wise asked, what is this for? Public
Works Director Kornelis explained, these are FAA
lots. The Stoehners requested a portion of the large
lot and it was subdivided into smaller lots. Origi-
nally the City brought in water & sewer to the large
lot, feeling the whole area would be purchased at
one time. Since then it has been subdivided and
additional services are needed to it. The reason
why there is more water than sewer is because there
are lots on the end that will not be served by
-:
sewer. City Manager Brighton added, it was platted
i
as a single lot, now there are 5 different lots.
He said there is one lot being used by FAA that the
City cannot get to. Mr. Kornelis said it could be
done, but it will involve a lift station.

of Fisheries Resources
Council agreed to acid this item to the agenda.
Councilman Wagoner said there are many fishermen that
fish halibut 2nd to salmon. This is a method of
limited entry. Kodiak is not against limited entry,
but the Federal Government places maximum catch limit
into the hands of a limited number Gf boats. Over
1979, 1980 and 1981 they had to sell 5,000 lbs. to
be eligible. Basically it would go to the large boats
that are outside of the State. The large boats are
promoting this.

Glick, to concur with the action of the City of
Kodiak and distribute a statement in the same way

a memory typewriter. Public Works does not need
anything that large. Councilwoman Glick explained

cluded so they do not have to make any resolutions

through the contractor for his profit when we could

past. He would like P&Z to have a description of
the project so we do not have an eye sore. we need
renderings and approval of the proposed structure

1. The Dept. of Motor Vehicles will pay a $43 per
month increase in rent in the City Administration
building. They have asked for a 10% credit if
they prepay for a full year. Mr. Brighton had
told him he doubted if the City would be interested.
They asked for 6%. Our estimated increase is
14%, 10%-janitorial, 108-gas, 38%-electricity.
Councilman Malston said he would not like to see
us in the position of them leaving. Councilwoman
Glick said we gave them a fair lease rate to
begin with to entice them to comp in. Do they
get the same kind of consideration from other
municipalities? Mr. Brighton explained, the
original lease was based on cost. They are not
paying a profit to anybody on their lease. 14%
