Recreation Director McGillivray spoke. Chairman
Morgan was unable to attend the meeting. He pre-
sented the plans from the architectural designer.
He explained they had started with a basic gym,
and had added rest rooms and dressing rooms. They
hope to alter the entrance. Paving, parking and
landscaping are included with the cost, as well as
the contingency fee. The Recreation Commission,
at their last meeting, agreed to ask the Council
to amend the figures. If they are able to stay
at the original cost, the money will be used for
equipment. Councilman Malston noted the total
cost of $793,000workst qtc ��?�P73 sq. ft:, that
is relatively good. 8e� Glick said $54,000
was high for architectural fees. Mr. McGillivray
explained that is a cost estimate, we are not tied
to any architec t� 4,0000 is for architect and
engineering. Glick asked, what did
we pay for this estimate? Mr. McGillivray replied
1-7 0 0 wwo , a. This was already approved by Council.
Councilman Hall noted, on the gymnasium, there would
be very little income. Mr. McGillivray agreed and
noted it is for recreational purposes.
MOTIONS
Councilman Malston moved, seconded by Councilman
Measles, to amend the figure on the capital improve-
ments brochure for the gymnasium to $800,000.
Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote.
C-2 Pat Porter - Senior Citizen Center Proposal
Project Director Porter explained the Council on
the Aging has noted there is a need for a new Senior
Citizen Center. They have talked to Rep. Hugh
Malone, he is in favor of it, and wished to ask
the Legialature for a direct appropriation.
Councilman wagoner asked, they had a presentation
earlier on Senior Citizen housing. Has this been
designed with housing near -by? Mrs. Porter replied
Mayor O'Reilly checked on the Chugiak facility, it
was done like that. However, Cook Inlet Native
Association is planning to build one. There are
only 7 people on the waiting list, we don't have
enough senior citizens to put in it. The Council
on the Aging objects to the location of the pro-
posed facility.
KENAT CIT'z COUNCIL
FEBRUARY 4, 1981
Page S
Councilman Wagoner said it will complicate trans-
portation to the Center if it is built at Wildwood.
Mrs. Porter replied the Council on the Aging already
provides transportation to Wildwood. The contract
said CIHA would provide transportation to the Senior
Citizen Center when it is built. Councilman Hall
asked, is the Wildwood facility already approved?
Mrs. Porter replied she didn't know, but she noted
we do need some kind of Senior Citizen housing.
Councilman Mueller said a better site could be
selected for this. The facility is needed, but
not there. Vice Mayor Glick asked Mrs. Porter
if she could select two or three sites and sub-
mit them to Planning & Zoning. Perhaps they could
plan a complex at a later date, with housing,
Senior Citizen Center and a nursing home. Council-
man Hall said the other projects in the Capital
Improvements Proposal are far enough along, it would
be difficult to include this.
Francis Meeks spoke. She noted Representative
Malone felt there would be no problem to get the
funds. He felt we should have enough land to make
a complex. She also talked to Commissioner Helen
Beirne, Dept. of Health & Social Services, and she
also felt there would be no problem with funding.
Vice Mayor Glick said, her concern is, if we add
this, will the other proposals suffer? This, plus
the site location are her concerns. Councilman
Mueller asked, who funds the operations? Mrs. Porter
replied, it is State funded. Councilman Mueller
noted, in the past, the State has refused any oper-
ating costs. Mrs. Porter replied, it is Federal
Funding. Councilman Malston asked, if Rep. Malone
asked for the money, would this come through the
State? If this detracts from our other Capital
Improvement Projects, he can't support it. Mrs.
Porter said she would ask Rep. Malone. Council-
man Wagoner said, the concept is good, it should go
through Dept. of Health & Social Services, and not
be taken from the Capital Improvements Proposal.
Atty. Delahay said there is a possibility this
could be granted and the Legislature could delete
from the other projects.
Vice Mayor Glick said the Council concurs with the
project, but has concern about the Capital Improvement

Proposal. She requested Mrs. Porter to report back
after talking to Rep. Malone regarding State funding.
Councilman Malston suggested she go to Planning &
Zoning, they are working with these lands all the
time.
C-3 Dr. John Wilsey - Kenai Community College
{ Dr. Wilsey noted this is the fifth ear he has
appeared before the Council. Over 1400 people
took one or more classes at the College, over
j 3000 in the past year. We are the 3rd largest
j Community College in the State. They gave 42

S certificates. They have 24 professionals on the

f per credit hour in the last 4 years. The petroleum
courses are recognized all over the world. Otrer-
'
400 of the courses are in these areas, 48% are in
applied sciences and computer, 4% are community

interest. They have just completed a new building
with 0600 sq. ft. The Legislature has asked for
a list of needed items, they have asked for a
budget of $94,000 for equipment, $247,000 for an
outreach program to Homer and Seward. He would
_
like to ask for Council support.
Councilman Mueller moved, seconded by Councilman
Measles, to direct the Administration to draw up
a resolution supportin; Dr. Wil&ey's request.
Motion passed unanimously by voice vote.

5. Ruby Coyle spoke. Regarding City water, they
'- have been disturbed about the water situation.
They never had a problem with the seismograph
testing till last year. when they made explosions,
their water was affected.. The recent seismo-
graph testing has affected their water for 2
days. Their big concern is, if it affects theirs
J at 130 ft., what if they should crack the aquifer
of and affect the City water? Vice Mayor

Glick asked Public Works Director Kornelis
if he had noticed any change when the seisma-
graph tests are being taken. Mr. Kornelis re-
plied, the water is tested once a week. We have
a coloration in our water. Mrs. Coyle said
she thought it was the way they set up the
charges, they don't always do it.
6. Councilman Wagoner suggested two additional
items for discussion at the next work session.
a. Agenda format
b. The Council minutes. As for typing all
of the detail, he would like just the
action taken. He would prefer to see
it shorter.
Vice Mayor Glick said not everyone has access
to the tapes. They could be synopsized.
Councilman Wagoner replied all minutes are
recorded permanently on tape. The discussion
is irrelevant after the motion is made.
c. After the Friday Chamber of Commerce meet-
ing regarding the Alaska 1984. He did
not hear much positive comment to the
presentation. The Council should recon-
sider their motion. Vice Mayor Glick
said she agrees.
MOTION:
Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilman
Measles, to rescind Resolution 81-13.
Councilman Wagoner said the main reasons for this
ares
a. The reaction of the Chamber
b. The reaction of the Council
c. The person speaking was using the fact
that the Council had endorsed the project.
It is promotional for promoting Anchorage.
There is nothing there for Kenai.
Vice Mayor Glick said the main thrust was to promote
Anchorage. She noted the speaker said, he did not
know what the City of Kenai had of interest. Council-
man Measles replied he didn't get the same feeling
from the comment. He was saying he is not qualified
to say what Kenai has. It should be someone from
Kenai.
