ROLL CALL Present: Vincent O'Reilly, Betty Glick, Jess Hall, Ron Malston, Ray Measles, Dick Mueller, Tom Wagoner Absent: None AGENDA APPROVAL j Mayor O'Reilly said Public Works Director Kornelis had requested Resolution 81-69 be added as item G-31. He noted if we didn't put it on, the State will shut I the project down. Public Works Director Kornelis I 1 explained, the wiring had to be a waterproof type and ! had to be done by a licensed electrician. It was never up to Code, the work has already been done. 1 Councilman Wagoner noted it will cost $1,190. Why are we transfering $2,300? Mr. Kornelis replied this is not all the job. He added this just happened yesterday (6-16-81), so he did not know in time for i the packet. 1 Council agreed to the addition. B. - - PUBLIC HEARINGS ! B 1 Ordinance 685 81 Increasing Rev/Appns City { Administration Bldg. Parking Lot Construction - j $29,000 MOTION: Councilwoman Glick moved, seconded by Councilman Measles, to adopt the ordinance. There was no public comment. Motion passed unanimously by roll call vote. C. PERSONS PRESENT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD C-1 Donald & Karen Creamer - Lease on FBO S/D, Lots 1,2 & 3. Karen Creamer noted Aero Union made application in May, since then they have moved forward on their plans and have gone to Planning & Zoning meetings. They will have six DC-41s in service, they anticipate employing approximately ten people permanently. This does not include the California personnel currently employed. The north end development does not include lots 1,2 & 3. A five year limit is not reasonable. They would like a 20 year -plus lease with option to renew. They hope to finish their development by snowfall this Fall. Councilman Wagoner asked, is there a particular reason for Lots 1,2 & 3 and not moving further down? Mrs. Creamer explained, Lots 4,5 & 6 have been given to others, Lots 10,11 & 12 do not have access except off Lots 7,8 & 9. Lots 1,2 & 3 are closer to the terminal, it would be most convenient for them and they plan to fuel consumption for large aircraft. She added companies cannot make KENAI CITY COUNCIL JUNE 17, 1981 Page 2 a profit in 55 years. Councilwoman Glick noted at the last Planning & Zoning meeting, they recommended Lots 1,2 & 3 be released for lease on a long term basis. MOTION: Councilwoman Glick moved, seconded by Councilman Malston, the Council rescind their previous action retaining these lots only for a five year lease and allow them to be leased on a long term basis for development. Councilwoman Glick noted Council had changed a pro- posed green belt area when Kenai Air proposed a plan. Councilman Wagoner said Council should wait till they hear from Juneau. He would like to see additional planning around the area. Pubic Works Director Kornelis said he is still against the pro- posal, but there is a lot of freight service there and our schematics do not include air freight. Councilwoman Glick said we could consider a second story instead of an extension of the terminal. Mrs. Creamer said the heavy cargo she is talking about can be handled better at those lots. Aero Union is giving the City 600 feet and taking 200, until the City increases the fish flying, they will not need this much land. 1 Motion passed, with Mayor O'Reilly, Councilwoman Glick, Councilmen Hall, Malston voting yes; Council- men Measles, Mueller, Wagoner voting no. Mayor O'Reilly asked that the Creamers contact City Manager Brighton. C-2 Jerry Thomas - Dollar -Relit -A -Car - Rental Space II at Terminal f Atty. Delahay explained there have been discussions with City Manager Brighton, Mr. Thomas and Atty. Delahay and they feel it can be handled by Administration. Council agreed to the action. C-3 Tom Yerbich, Atty. - Public Use of Salamatof Dock. Mr. Yerbich referred to Atty. Delahay's memo. He k was not sure their rates become moot as of this date. (6-17-81) Their major problem is two -fold. One, Atty. Delahay has referred to. The other may negate the first - access. They have a real problem trying to handle the vehicles. They have physical space for one vehicle at a time. It they take at a first come, first served basis, they :could have a monumental traffic jam. They do not have room for two-way traffic. They have seven applications, the most they can handle is two, perhaps three if the pro- cessor had one tender. The time involved is docking boats, not unloading. This disrupts their entire operation. They have got to have priority. They Fi are in a bankruptcy situation, they have to have j maximum effort to survive. They would like to see the City build a finger pier on the west side. t ;li They could work out an agreement for use of the land. They propose to put out to the highest bidders and work with the highest two or three. They feel their rates are reasonable. KENAI CITY COUNCIL June 17, 1981 Page 3 Councilman Wagoner said it is too late in the season to start a finger pier. We should discuss with Salamatof the feasibility of expanding the dock. sir. Y%r bivsi said is finger icier appeared to be the most economical. They are not sure if the demand would he sufficient to go to large scale operation. Ranger Nelson, Cook Inlet Processing, spoke. The major issue is the first come, first served problem. If the fishermen arp required to go to the end of i the line they do not have use of the dock. Also, their rates are now the highest on the Peninsula. This is enough of an advantage without our fish- ermen having to move to the end of the line. Also, regarding insurance. No other public dock requires this. Mayor O'Reilly asked if the had an opportunity to see if truck access could be scheduled? Mr. Nelson replied he believes there is a problem with 7, but not with 2 or 3. Councilwoman Glick noted fish bought from Bristol Bay would not affect boat loading. Mr. Yerbich replied he is hopeful with z 2 or 3 it will work better. He is looking at a "worst case" situation. He added, traffic is not just processors, but also Salamatof traffic from Bristol Bay. Councilwoman Glick said there are only 2 or 3 days fishing per week, it could not be that many days. We should have public use. j Mr. Yerbich replied they give a percentage of use to the public now, they cannot use it. Council- woman Glick asked, why are we having problems with public use? Has no one used it in the past? Mr. Yerbich replied that was right. Councilman Wagoner j asked, why couldn't the fuel pump be moved? It could =,= be moved back. That would open up the east end. Mr. Yerbich replied Salamatof is operating under a bankruptcy court and cannot make capital expenditures. Councilman Wagoner replied, that is maintenance. Mr. Yerbich added, there is a of question q Priorities, the problems are monumental. MOTION: Councilwoman Glick moved, seconded by Councilman Wagoner, to approve the rate schedule as submitted by Salamatof Seafoods and request they follow the outline of the lease in off-loading fish boats on a first come, first served basis. Councilwoman Glick added it can be put out to bid, but Salamatof does not have priority. Mayor O'Reilly asked, they will limit accepted bids? Councilwoman Glick replied, no, they said they could best serve 2 or 3, but the public has to be served on a first come, first served basis. j Mayor O'Reilly requested he abstain from voting, as Alaska Pacific Bank has a first mortgage on Salamatof. T� Motion passed, with Mayor O'Reilly abstaining. D. MINUTES D-1 Regular Meeting, June 3, 1981. Clerk Whelan asked that page 13, 1st paragraph, line 3, the amount of $.63 be changed to $63.

Councilwoman Glick said page 17, item H-7, para- graph 3, line 5, the word "beeter" should be i "better."

Delahay said he will be attending a convention in Baltimore in November, and would like to take off in October for vacation. He would be missing the 2nd meeting in October and the 2nd meeting in November. Councilman Malston noted the lease cap discussion will be discussed in the 2nd meeting in November. It will have to be postponed. Council agreed to postpone discussion till the 1st meeting in December. H-3 Mayor Mayor O'Reilly spoke. 1. He reviewed the report from Juneau included in the packet. Max Swearingen had spoken to Reps. Malone & O'Connell, they are working for an early adjournment. It looks like SB-168 ($1,000 per capita) will go through. There will be a total of $9 Million for the City, for airport, streets, Care Center, and Senior Center. Councilman Wagoner asked, who �1 9 �1 KENAI CITY COUNCIL June 17, 1981 Page 11 will pay for mall atenance of the Senior Center? Mayor O'Reilly replied he didn't know. Councilman Hall asked, what about the Senior Center in Wildwood? Mayor. O'Reilly replied, that is housing, this is a Center. Councilwoman Glick said we did discuss this and make recommendations for the FY 81-82 budget, the Legislature wants us to lower taxes but throws these things on us. Councilman Wagoner noted any time anyone wants to make an end run, they can. This blows the Council's right to set priorities. Maintenance & operating costs of new buildings are becoming our biggest costs. Mayor O'Reilly said this puts him in a quandary. The Senior Citizens have been told $1 Million is coming to them. He has not talked to Rep. Malone in some time. Council- woman Glick asked if the City could take the money �s .EB.:s and divvy it u 2_1-Mayor O'Reilly suggested adding `Qq°►�2 ` the word "Community" to the Center. Carmen Gintoli explained, this was done last Dec. It was brought to Council and was rejected by Council. Finance Director Brown said he didn't think any City employee has urged the Legislature without Council approval. The Senior Citizens may have been speak- ing to the Legislature. Mayor O'Reilly said he felt ambivalent. The Council stuck to the $9 Million figure without any mention of the $1 Million Senior Citizen Center. If we can turn it to the City ad- vantage, it may he worth accepting. Councilman Wagoner said he doubted that if we get the $1 Million it will be returned to the State. It should be stopped in Juneau before it gets here. He suggested Mayor O'Reilly and City Manager Brighton send a letter to the Legislatures objecting to the way it is being handled. Mayor O'Reilly noted it may go someplace else. Councilman Wagoner said he would rather that than be stuck with maintenance on it. Many of the Senior Citizen Council will not be living in the City. Mayor O'Reilly asked, what is the objection to mixing with our proposals? Councilwoman Glick replied that is stepping on their turf. Atty. Delahay noted a Senior Citizen Community Center still means Senior Citizens. benior Citizen and Community Center is what they wanted. Councilman Hall asked how much were we shorted on the airport? Mayor O'Reilly replied $4,770,000 is available for the airport. 2. The Dow/Shell meetings. Other communities have taken active steps in this area. He would like to see if cooperative steps could be taken with the Borough, N. Kenai and Soldotna. He would like to have Councilwoman Glick and Councilman Hall help. This area has done nothing. Council agreed to the request. H-4 City Clerk Clerk Whelan spoke. 1. City Manager Brighton was asked to attend a census training course in Anch. June 25-26, 1981. He will be unable to attend and asked her to go. Council agreed to the request. 2. Clerk Whelan will be in Kodiak June 20-21. The KENAI CITY COUNCIL June 17, 1981 Page 12 ferry will bring her back to Kenai Monday night. She asked if she could have Monday and Tues. A14 off. Council agreed to the request. 3. Alaska Legal Services has asked to use the Council Chambers for a monthly meeting. It has also been suggested that the Social Security be allowed to use the Chambers for their monthly meeting. Since these meetings will be for appoint- ments and not for general public, Atty. Delahay felt this should be brought up for Council discussion. Councilman Wagoner said they should not be on a scheduled basis for State & Federal offices. The City should not get in to this. Councilman Malston said this building is for public use. We have had trouble before, that is what the building is for. Atty. Delahay noted this would not be restricted to the City of Kenai. It would be for anyone in the area. Previously Legal Services used space in the Decor Building. They are short of funds, but tying up this room is overkill. Councilman Malston said for once a month, it could be in the upstairs conference rooms. Councilman Measles noted scheduling is a problem when it interferes with the efficiency of the people working here. Clerk Whelan noted janitorial service is a problem now because it is only 3 days a week. She has to clean up after each meeting. Also, if there are 2 meetings scheduled in one day, she has to clean up 2 times. They have not been very careful in the use of the facilities.
