Delahay had some problems with it and asked to review it. { 2. Councilwoman Glick asked to have Ord. 772-82, distributed this date (6-2-82) be reconsidered as item F-1. There is a legal problem with it. Council agreed to the changes. B. PERSONS PRESENT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD None C. PUBLIC HEARINGS C-1 Ordinance 777-82 - Approving Budget for FY 1982-83 MOTION: Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilwoman Glick, to adopt the ordinance. Public Comment: Animal Control Officer Hamar spoke. Before he i discussed the budget, he asked to submit his resignation, effective July 1, 1982. Animal control is the City's most serious problem. It is the council's duty to establish priorities, he cannot ^5� agree with their decision. Other departments have j grown drastically, Animal Control has not. He has f been denied raises and criticized for trying to enforce the Code. He has asked for additional help for 4 years. Council needs to re -prioritize what the City's needs and wants are. Councilman Wagoner said Administration should accept the resign- ation and go on with other business. Motion passed, with Councilman Malston voting no. C-2 Resolution 82-47 - Establishing Rate of Levy and Property Tax, FY 1982-83 MOTION: Councilwoman Glick moved, seconded by Councilman Wagoner, to adopt the resolution. ' There was no public comment. Councilman Wise said we are relying too heavily on sales tax. Gross revenue from the Borough has dropped. We will have to change the mill rate again. Council- man Wagoner said Kenai's population has not varied, They Borough's has. Revenue front sales tax has in- creased every year. Councilman Malston said we are KENAI CITY COUNCIL JUNE 2, 1982 Page 2 relying too much on State Revenue Sharing, he will vote against the resolution. Motion passed, with Mayor O'Reilly, Councilwoman Glick, Councilmen Measles, Mueller, Wagoner voting yes; Councilmen Wise, Malston voting no. C-3 Resolution 82-48 - Establishing Airport Terminal Lease Rates & Fee Schedule for FY 1982-83 MOTION: Councilwoman Glick moved, seconded by Councilman Measles, to adopt the resolution. There was no public comment. Councilwoman Glick asked, what is the difference between the proposed rates and what we have now? Airport Manager Swalley replied it is the same as last year. He explained one of the reasons for this is because we are in a state of repair, and also because we have no basis for an estimate. In the past we have gone 2 years without changing the rates. Councilwoman Glick noted utility rates have increased in other City facilities, will they in- crease in the airport? Mr. Swalley explained they are increasing the square footage so they will meet the increase. Councilwoman Glick asked, on the same subject, has Administration met with the users regarding their needs? Mr. Swalley replied, yes, they have received one negative reply and 3 commitments. Councilman Wise asked if a decision has been made as to where they will be located? Mr. Swalley replied the architect has made on area larger and decided to give it to Wien. Councilman Wise said there were to be drawings submitted. Councilman Wagoner asked that this be held till Carmen Gintoli gets back and review with him. Atty. Delahay suggested there could be new amounts made when the airport is com- plete. MOTION, Amendment: Councilwoman Glick moved, seconded by Councilman Malston, to amend the resolution to delete "THROUGH JUNE 30, 1983" in the title, and add, "until completion of renovation." MOTION, Change in Amendment: Councilwoman Glick moved, with consent of second, to add the word "substantial" before "completion." VOTE, Amendment: Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote. V01rE, Main Motion as Amended: Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote. Councilwoman Glick asked that Administration enter into negotiations upon substantial completion.

I j C-5 Resolution 82-50 - Awarding Janitorial Contracts - City Hall, Library, Airport Terminal - I MOTION: Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilwoman Glick, to adopt the. resolution. Public Comment: Fred Parnell, Beaver Janitorial. He had come to promote his bid. He bid on tha terminal building 1 only. In the initial contract, the bids had to include the new carpet. His bid is somewhat higher than the Administration budget, his equipment is the main reason for the additional charge. He did — - not have the equipment, but would guarantee it would -- be available. He asked Council to consider his expertise and the help he has and reconsider the bid. Councilwoman Glick said in the 2nd WHEREAS, Council has considered the expertise. She asked y if we had Day & Night Janitorial before. Acct. Q Parnell replied, yes, for the police station. Councilman Wagoner asked if the other people included I� the same equipment in their bids. Airport Manager Swalley replied yes. Mayor O'Reilly asked if this included snow shoveling also? City Manager Brighton replied yes.' MOTION, Amendment: rj � ;j Councilman Wise moved, seconded by Councilwoman Glick, to amend the resolution to read, at the end of the "NOW THEREFORE" paragraph, "the lowest bid of A-1 Janitorial being rejected for failure to - meet bidding specifications which required bidding -= based on construction phases." ° MOTION, Postponement: I Councilman Wise moved, seconded by Councilwoman Glick, to postpone this item till the June 16, 1982 meeting. Councilman Wagoner explained he would like to talk to Chief Ross before accepting the bid and see if Day & Night Janitorial can do the job. MOTION, Change: Councilman Wagoner moved, with consent of second, to change postponement to table. + Intention of Council was to table till Chief Ross arrived. i I � I i i •� KENAI CITY COUNCIL JUNE 2, 1982 Page 4 VOTE, Amendment: Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote. VOTE, To Table: Motion passed, with Councilman Malston voting no. C-6 Resolution 82-51 - Transfer of Funds - Main St. Loop, Barnacle Way - Change Order #3 - $1,000 MOTION: Councilman Malston moved, seconded by Councilman Mueller, to adopt the resolution. There was no public comment. Councilman Wise asked, what is it for? Public Works Director Kornelis replied, for water on lot 11, on the corner. They missed one lot. Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote. C-6a Change Order #3 - Doyle Const. - $1,000 MOTION: Councilman Mueller moved, seconded by Councilman Measles, to approve the change order. Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote. C-7 Resolution 82-'52 - Transfer of Funds - Lawton, Walker, Tinker, Rogers - Change Order #4 - $13,220 MOTION: Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilman Mueller, to adopt the resolution. Councilwoman Glick said we are proposing to put in water & sewer to a new subdivision. She questions if Council is establishing a precedent. Public Works Director Kornelis explained this is a policy decision. This is a 6" water line and an 8" sewer line to get water & sewer past the asphalt paving. It is not a service line, but a main line. Council- man Wise said if we do this for one, we should do for all. Public Works Director Kornelis explained, we are providing service lines to property and are trying to get off the pavement so they don't have to be dug up. He set policy with the engineers to give service lines and main line extensions to areas that are subdivided. Councilwoman Glick said it was discussed at P&Z meeting, approval of the subdivision was contingent upon water & sewer and street improvements to serve lots created. Doesn't subdivision requirements state they be in? Mr. Kornelis replied, sewer not water. Councilman Malston noted we are doing this for the City's benefit so we do not have to tear up the road. If the lots are built, that is a greater benefit than the cost of water & sewer to stub in. Lack of water & sewer is a problem all over the city. Councilman Wise asked, is there any way to modify this? He did not realize this was DEC money, is there any way to build our 50%? Atty. Delahay replied, no,50% of the cost is to the City. If we get any funds, we cannot put them into our 50%. Councilman Wise noted they do not care where 3 a:� - P.ENAI CITY COUNCIL JUNE 2, 19982 Page 5 our 50% comes from. Atty. Delahay said he can research this. Councilwoman Glick said Council should sit down and discuss water & sewer lines, current and future, to eliminate these discussions. City Manager Brighton noted when we were in the engineering stage, Council adopted the policy that f when we put in streets we would stub out all lots 1 that were platted. Public Works is complying with that policy. VOTE: Motion passed, with Mayor O'Reilly, Councilmen Malston, Measles, Mueller, Wagoner voting yes; Councilman Wise, Councilwoman Glick voting no. C-7a Change Order #4 - Quality Asphalt - $13,219.80 MOTION: Councilman Ralston moved, seconded by Councilman Measles, to approve the change order.

C-8 Resolution 82-53 - Awarding Bid - Chain Link Fenc- ing, Mt. McKinley Fence - $34,522.36 MOTION: Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilman Malston, to adopt the resolution. There was no public comment. Councilman Mueller asked, what happened to the airport area? City Manager Brighton replied, the specs are not ready to put out to bid. Motion passed, with Councilman Wise voting no. 0-9 Res,)lution 82-54 - Transfer of Funds - Federal Revenue Sharing - Controller for Well House #101 - $3, 500 MOTION: Councilman Measles moved, seconded by Councilman Mueller, to adopt the resolution. There was no public comment. Councilman Wise said he did not see this as a transfer, but as a new appropriation. He did not see how this is appropriate. If the work is needed, it should be funded through water & sewer. Fencing has nothing to do with water & sewer. Mrs. Parnell, Finance Dept., explained Finance Director Brown checked into this. It is not reappropriating. She added, an ad was put in the paper. Mayor O'Reilly asked, what is a controller? Public Works Director Kornelis explained, it helps turn on & off the distributor pumps. It is hoped it will help normalize the pressure flows. Also, the contractors have been using water during peak flows, and have been directed not to. Councilwoman Glick asked City Manager Brighton, when we have excess monies left over, haven't we - in the past - had a list to review r KENAI CITY COUNCIL JUKE A;,1 1982 Page 6 and make decisions? And by reappropriating this, it is within this procedure? City Manager Brighten replied, yes. It is a need that must be resolved now. If not, we will have to appropriate money to resolve the problem. Councilman Wise said Federal Revenue Sharing should not be used for water & sewer, these should be self-supporting. Mayor O'Reilly asked if there was a time frame? Mr. Kornelis replied, he would like to get well house #1 operating correctly as soon as possible so they can go into well house #2. VOTE: Motion passed, with Councilmen. Malston, Measles, - Mueller, Wagoner voting yes; Councilman Wise, Mayor O'Reilly, Councilwoman Glick voting no. + C-10 Transfer of Liquor License - Pizza Paradisos, from A. Macheras to G.

There was a balance of $358.27 in the name of Macheras for penalties and $43.46 in the name of Pitsilionis for penalties from April 1991 on. She suggested approval be subject to payment of penalties. __-- MOTION: Councilman Malston moved, seconded by Councilwoman ` Glick., that a letter of non -objection be sent to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board regarding Pizza Paradisos with the exception of when the tax penalties are paid. Coundilwoman Glick asked, are the property taxes current? Councilman Wagoner said they do not own facility. the Atty. Delahay explained you are well secured on property taxes, but not on sales tax. They can always foreclose on the property. Councilwoman Glick said she felt they should be current with everything. Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote. C-11 Resolution 82-55 - Transfer of Funds - Street Sweeping - $2,500 MOTION: Councilman Mueller moved, seconded by Councilman Measles, to adopt the resolution. There was no public comment. i Councilman Wise said some of the extra cost was because there was so much sand on the road. It should have been done by shovel equipment. Council- man Wagoner said there were 2 men with shovels on the job. Public Works Director Kornelis explained they have made a $1,000 transfer, the costs have gone up from $2,300 to $2,700. He will have to } have an additional transfer. r. r - c , a � J Y - ' z KENAI CITY COUNCIL JUNE 9, 1982 Page 7 MOTION, Amendment: Councilwoman Glick moved, seconded by Councilman Malston, to amend the resolution from $2,500 to $2,700.

Councilman Wagoner asked Chief Ross, what kind of a job did Day & Night do on the police Dept.? Chief Ross replied, it is not the same people who bid the job, but they are doing a satisfactory job. There have been times when the dept. has held them up with their activities. Councilman Malston asked, are we not going to clean the Police Dept.? Chief Ross explained he asked City Manager Brighton to change the budget to purchase equipment so prisoners could clean the area. There would be better security and they would have better timing.

As noted in the letter in the packet, CEIP funding for design money for the library has been denied. 2. A resolution from the Harbor Commjssion re- garding the derelict boat was passed out e r1 KENAI CITY COUNCIL JUNE 2, 1982 Page 10 this date (6-2-82) Councilman, Wise said, regarding the CEIP money, this was 308-b money. How about 308-d money? Public Works Director Kornelis replied the grant application did not stipulate. Councilman Wise asked that this be reviewed, that was the wrong classification, it should be architectural design and engineering money. 3. Councilman Wagoner asked City Manager Brighton to check on the old buses by the old post office in Old Town. 4. Councilwoman Glick asked City Manager Brighton if Administration had met with Union Oil re- garding purchase of property. Mr. Brighton. replied no, Atty. Delahay is waiting for infor- mation to be sent to him. Councilwoman Glick asked that a representative be invited to the next Council meeting (6-16-82) and bring us up- to-date on the 3 drilling sites. There have been allegations made. She has contacted people in the oil industry and have determined that kind of drilling mud is water base and not hazardous or toxic, but additions made to the mud may be. We have a vested interest in whether or not these drilling wastes have been disposed of properly. She would like to discuss disposal of muds and future intentions. Council agreed to the request. 6. Councilman Malston asked City Manager Brighton to contact DOT and see what can be done about the used car lot in front of Carr's Mall. 7. Councilman Wise said he asked for a copy of SB-242 regarding grants for water & sewer. He believes it will' be signed by the Gov. 70% is to municipalities not financed by the Fed. Govt. The municipal newsletter says the bond package has passed, only $15 Million is matching program. He would hope we would have the Candlelight and Linwood request in as soon as possible. City Manager Brighton said they have been informed by DEC that they already have more requests than funds. Their only hope is if some are not used. H-2 City Attorney Atty, Delahay spoke. 1. In reviewing the land in Woodland S/D for a park. Lots 8 through 10, Block 10 were set aside for education & recreation. This was a dedication in the plat and might be some- thing the City can enforce. But there is also a reservation right to June 1974 to make further exceptions. At least one of the lots had been built on before 1974, it would appear the corporation took advantage of the reservation to sell the property. 2. The Mayor had received a letter regarding maint- enance of public facilities for lease if the City accepted. The Atty. General decision agreed there was no discrepancy. The Kenai Community Care Center had a grant, the City KENAI CITY COUNCIL JLINE 2, 1982 Page 11 has no control and no title. But the City has the responsibility if the State takes off { funding. Also, the Senior Citizen Center, though the City will have title. 3. Regarding ordinances for acting City Manager and acting City Clerk. The Mayor can appoint an acting City Clerk for meetings, but not for regular duties. We should have ordinances for this and for the City Manager. Councilman Wagoner suggested the City Manager should make his own appointment, the Council should appoint a permanent acting City Clerk. Councilman Measles said it should be the person, not the position, the position may be a new hire, or not able to handle it be- cause of job responsibilities. City Manager Brighton said the Code permits the City Manager to hire all but the City Clerk and the Atty. With that permission, and then to restrict him to appoint someone in his behalf is not consistent. He has always appointed the Finance Director. Councilwoman Glick asked that ordinances be prepared for the next meeting (6-16-82). Council agreed to the request. H-1 City Manager (contd) City Manager Brighton said, regarding appropriating funds for extension of fire hydrants. It appears monies have never been appropriated for that. They were cut out of the budget a year ago, the intent was to put it into Revenue Sharing, this was never done. He asked that this be discussed at the work sessions for Revenue Sharing. There are no funds left in water & sewer for next fiscal year, there are no funds left in this year either. Council- man Wise said in other communities hydrants are not charged to water utility, public safety pays a fee to water utilities for availability of water. Fire service utility affects ISO rates. We should consider this in future budgets. H-3 Mayor Mayor O'Reilly said there was a vacancy in the Recreation Commission for the high school repres- entative. He suggested Bettina Town. MOTION: Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilman Measles, to approve the nomination. Motion passed by unanimous consent. H-4 City Clerk Clerk Whelan said she had been asked by Council to check with the Borough if property taxes were paid current for the Little Ski-Mo. The Borough lists $50 due on property taxes, this amount was not included in their approval of liquor license. KENAI CITY COUNCIL JUNE 2, 1982 Page 12 H-5 Finance Director None H-6 Planning & Zoning Councilwoman Glick spoke. 1. At the last meeting, return of zoning to the cities was discussed. 2. The McMaster subdivision was approved, Admin- istration was to review the grandfather status of the area. 3. Crow subdivision plat was approved. 4. Gusty subdivision addition was approved. 5. The Diary Queen temporary use was approved. 6. Section 36 was discussed. 7. There will be a public hearing next Wednesday (6-9-82) on zoning powers and Section 36. H-7 Harbor Commission MOTION: Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilwoman Glick, to direct Administration to remove or other- wise destroy the fishing vessel Optimist and contact and notify persons with fishing vessels stored there that they have 30 days to remove or they v.-,ill charge storage uu:: impound fees. Atty. Delahay said he wrote a letter to the Harbor Commission regarding this. It takes 6 months to go through procedures. He asked that the decision be postponed so he can reveiw. Councilman Wagoner asked, how are cars removed? Atty. Delahay replied that is done by State law. He also checked with State Rivers & Harbors Div. and the laws have been changed, it cannot be done. Councilman Wagoner said we have been dealing with this for a year or so. He would like it resolved by the next meeting. MOTION, Withdrawal: Councilman Wagoner moved, with consent of second, to withdraw his original motion. MOTION: Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilwoman Glick, to direct Administration and the City Attorney take legal steps necessary to affect removal of personal property from that area. City Manager Brighton noted we are going to have many vehicles placed there within the next few days. Councilman Wagoner said we should mark on June 3, 1982 what vessels are there. We should not have parking space for fishing vessels. The Harbor Commission should have rules for what could be there. Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote.

Councilwoman Glick asked City Manager Brighton if Administration had contacted the Fitness Center regarding their concern on our equipment and have we installed our equipment? City Manager Brighton replied he has directed Recreation Director McGillivray. He has made attempts to contact the owner, but has not received a reply. We have not installed the equipment. We have received a great deal of equipment and a great deal will be installed in the parks. 2. Councilman Malston asked City Manager Brighton about the junk yard across from Morgan Steel. Mr. Brighton said it has been referred to the Federal Govt. Ther6 has been no response from the owner, he is out of town. 3. Councilwoman Glick said several Council members have been contacted regarding hiring of the sewer treatment plant operator. Council does not hire, but they have the right to investi- gate practices. Accusations weres a. There were improprieties exercised. b. Interviews were not conducted properly. c. There may have been some discrimination. She spoke with the City Manager and the Public Works Director. The job was advertised outside and locally. 50 applicants were received, 31 outside, 19 in Alaska. The applications were reviewed by 3 people. All were reviewed by phone and treated equally. She felt Public Works Director Kornelis acted in a proper fashion. 4. Councilman Malston notified Council t::«- he will be absent from the Jcasta 16 meeting. ADJOURNMENTS Meeting adjourned at 1005 05 PM. Janet ;4helan City Clerk G ^ .J
