PUBLIC HEARING
1. Chester Cone - He was a member of the Harbor
Commission last year, and was a member of the first
Harbor Commission. The first Harbor Commission had
tried to get funds for a harbor, and weren't able
to get anyplace, they had no clout. It is impor-
tant that we act right away, if it is too big, we
can always out it down.
J 2. Per request by Ruby Coyle, Mayor O'Reilly
read the ordinance by title.
3. Drew Sparlin - He has fished Cook Inlet for
19 years, It is time to get going. There are 594
drift permits in Cook Inlet, 115 are located in
Kenai, 324 in the Peninsula. The money we will
derive will be much more than just fishing, It
will be for pleasure as well as commercial.
4. Bud Keener - He owns and operates Keener
Packing Co. In the past there was no boat harbor
at winilchik, By working with our Senators, we
managed to get a harbor. Getting fish from Ninil-
chik is not satisfactory, it is important to have
a harbor in Kenai. The unloading procsss from the
Kasilof River is extremely dangerous. The fisher-
men would like to come to Kenai,
MOTIONS

Glick to adopt the ordinance.
Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote.

a. PayumnlL to R. Hoper for $25,000
MOTION:
Councilman Wagoner moved, seconded by Councilwoman
Glick, to direct Administration to contact Mr. Roper
and ask for a 30 day extension.
Atty. Delahay said Mr. Roper had spoken to him ten
days ago and said there would be no extension. Atty.
Delahay noted if the Council does this, and Mr. Roper
sticks to it, the agreement will be dead. City
Manager Brighton said he will reiterate the statement,
Mr. Roper had also said that in Mr. Brighton's
office. Counal.'U a Mueller said he had 3 questions:
a. Is the harbor actually feasible at the figure
given?
b. Is funding available from the State?
c. What kind of maintenance costF, are we talking
about?
Councilman Mueller said he cannot possibly agree
to paying a quarter of a million dollars until
these questions are answered. Councilman Wagoner
said that is why he made the motion, we do not
have the information.
After a short recess, the Council voted on the
motion.
Motion passed unanimously fiy roll call vote.
