ROLL CALL Present: Edward Ambartan, Michael Seaman, Vincent O'Reilly, Ron Malston, Betty Glick and Charles Bailie Absent: Phillip Aber B. NEW BUSINESS B-l: Advisory Harbor Commission The Council unanimously confirmed the following individuals to serve on the Kenai Advisory Harbor Commission: Tom Ackerly (2 year term) , Chester Cone (1 year) , John Williams (3 years), Bob Tapp (2 years), Robert Peterkin (3 years, and Tom Waggoner (2 years) . B-2: Discussion of recommendation for sale of City owned lands City Manager John Wise discussed the feasibility of developing a Charter amendment which would set up a trust account for the proceeds of the sale of certain Airport lands which proceeds would be used only to fund certain FAA (ADAP) related projects. Initially, it was suggested that a pilot project be instituted whereby certain selected • Airport lands be sold and a special fund be established with these monies. It was hoped that the inatitution of a pilot project of this nature would demonstrate to the FAA that the City was able to successfully establish a special trust fund for this purpose. Councilman Ambarian wondered whether a Charter amendment was necessary at all or whether simply an ordinance on the subject would suffice. This question was left for further research. Mayor O'Reilly began the discussion of the memorandum concerning Airport lands submitted by Charles A. Brown, Finance Director, and wont over the document paragraph by paragraph. As to the first paragraph, it was thought that the City should begin a pilot project with the sale of a selected 10 awe parcel. After this, a procedure would be set up for the handling of the pro- ceeds of the sale, inform FAA of the planned sale and method of setting up the trust, and set up an ordinance for the procedure of the sale of such lands indicating what the proceeds shall be used for. A change was suggested in paragraph 0 of the report dealing with option to lease or buy for a specific amount of time. It was suggested that the six month provision be reduced to a three month term with the possibility of another three month extension at the Council's discretion. The option would be non -assignable.
