Councilwoman Glick stated she understood the State Dept. of Revenue was moving out of Kenai. Mr. Brown said the City was not opposed to the State taking over but not to their moving out of Kenai.

Councilwoman Glick concurred, and ' suggested a 55 year lease. Councilman Aber asked if we had planned a dead storage area. Mr. Brown said he wasn't sure if we needed a walk-in vault. Mr. Gintoli said a concrete wall with a stool door for 2-3 hours fire proofing was sufficient.

MOTION: Councilman Ambarian moved, amended by Councilwoman Glick , that the agreement between the City of Kenai and Gintoli Architectural construction costs are not to exceed $9 50,000, to include contingency. Discussion: Councilman Aber said he was not in favor of weeky inspections, we will need daily inspections. Atty, Dolshay agreed, the owner usually furnishes the inspector, the architect should furnish the inspector. But the proposal was set up this way by the architect and agreed by the City. Councilman Aber felt that once a week by the architect or anyone else was not sufficient. Mr. Gintoli said a full-time inspector to $15.00 an hour, for a total of $15,000 plus. The Council can increase the cost Be it goes along, at their option, it is in the contract, Councilman Ambarian asked how long the tests would take, one hour or all day, Some weeks it will take more time. Mr. Gintoli replied he would attend the special meetings and weekly inspections per the proposal. Some times he will need more time than others, it is up to the Council, Mayor O'Reilly noted that for a job of this size, it would need an inspector. He asked Atty. Delahay If the Count could call on Mr. Gintoli if needed for inspection. Atty. Dol- shay rcfered t^ the contract, and asked Mr. Gintoli how much a full-time inspector coat. Mr. Gintoli replied $20.00 an hour, plus $20.00 an hour for drafting, and $10,00 for secretary. Councilman Ambarian said he would disapprove the contract as written, he agreed with Phil Aber. Atty. Delahay said the City could set the hours to inspect, when extra inspections were needed. MOTION: Amendment to main motion. i KENAI CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 21, 1979 Page 10 �O*� Mayor O'Reilly proposed an amendment to page I of the Agreement, Part II-fl, For Employees' time at: Project Inspector ....... $20.00 per hour. Amendment to main motion passed by roll call vote. Mr. Brown asked if the total construction costs are listed. Mr. flintoli refered to the contract. Councilman Aber asked for clarification of page 7 of the agreement. Do we furnish soils personnel for testing. Mr. Gintoli replied the contract documents would specify, and refered to Atty. Delahay. Mr. Delahay said it was removed from the architect. Councilman Aber asked why, the City will have to furnish firms for testing. Mr. Delahay explained it usually goes to a lab, the City will contract. We don't do, just pay for. The architect will demand the test, the City will pay for it. Councilman Aber said he understands, but it is not working that way. Mr. tlintolt explained that in the contract, the contractor will be responsible. Any special testing. the City will pay. Determinations can only be made at the time. Atty. Delahay said if an architect has to oversee tests, their fee will rise to cover the contingency, Councilman Aber said that con- tractors have been hurt by testings not done correctly. Atty. flelahay noted that we're paying so the architect will be encouraged to insist on tests. Mr. tiintoli reiterated that the contracts will have standard testing, this is just for special testing. If the results are negative, the contractor pays, if positive, the City pays. MOTION: The main motion was voted upon. Motion passed with Councilman Mae 1, voting no. H-1., City Manager's Report There will be a meeting of the airport committee Monday evening. H-2: City Attorney's Report City withdrawal from social Security. Atty. Delahay explained that the Police were separate from the other departments, and Atty. Schlereth had aalred the State for an opinion. The state said no, it couldn't be done that way. If it does pass the vote, it canswt become effective until Dec. 31, 1981. He suggested the City Clerk bring the subject up for a vote at that time. r.M KENAI CITY COUNCIL, NOVEMBER 21, 1979 Page U Councilman Ambarian said it has been delayod over six months now, and was brought up by Public Safety. By adding other employ*ees, the motion has been slowed down. Atty. Delahay explained that by law A* cannot be in effect before Dec. 31, 1981. Why make a decision now when it cannot be done till then, two calendar years after notice . Councilman Aber asked if everybody was on the option, Councilman Ambarian replied yes. Atty. nelahay said we are in a state of withdrawing, but it cannot be official until flee. 31, 1981, and all could change. Councilman Aber asked why wait to vote. Atty. Delahay explained the Public Safety wanted it. Councilman Aber said Public Works voted yes, but the others in administration can vote yes or no. Atty. nelahay read the letter from the State that explained all departments would vote together. Councilman Aber noted that Public Safety is more than 50% of the total personnel, Mr. Brown said just barely, with the dispatchers. Councilman Aber said it is not fair to the older employees, it should be an option. Atty. nelahay explained the employee would still have what he bought in, but it would be decreased. He felt the Coun- cil was spinning its wheels, we can't do anything, till 1981. Councilman Ambarian said the original intent was for Public Safety only. Council intended to protect the older employees. Atty. Sehlereth began the work, Councilman Aber said everyone will forget in one and a half years. Councilman Ambarian said we should pursue a State decision, other municipalities have done this. Mayor O'Reilly appointed Councilmen Ambarian, Malden and Seaman to check into this. Atty . Delahay said he would check the social security law . Atty. Delahay then discussed Daddy's Money liquor license. They want to change the lease to a set amount instead of percentage, the proposal would mean more money. It is separate from the liquor license. Councilman Ambarian said the purpose of the City name on the license is: a. It is a City -owned facility b. Two tenant's ago, they tried to sell with our name on the license. The ABC Board have told lessees the 10% fee makes us part owners, this to wrong. Our name on the license protects our interest. The percentage of the gross was an incentive to lessees to increase business, $25,000 to only one-half of the space, it could be increased, and the profits will increase. Councilman Aber noted we get 10% whether our name is on the license or not. Councilman Ambarian said the lions against Ritel and Butter are holding up the lease with the new owners, but they are not against the City, Atty, Delahay said the letter does not require Council action . Any control we can have over the license is to the City's benefit. 'Mayor O'Reilly asked Atty. Delahay to check into the legality of the license. Councilman Measles asked of the City's liability in a lawsuit. Atty. Delahay answered we are responsible for the oper- ation if our name is on the license. Chief Ross explained, at Mayor O'Reilly's request, that the license cannot be transferred, it must be at the airport. Councilman Aber asked about liability, Chief Ross said we have insurance that states we have liability as a bar -owner. We are on the license, the building KENAI CITY COUNCIL, NOVEMBER 21, 1070 Paso 12 lease is too far-fetched for liability. Mayor O'Reilly discussed Cinderella St. The line is not a section line, The property was sold without a survey or right-of-way, Mr. Brown tried to contact the owners, but could not. The land lies under power lines, is brushed out. The City went ahead with the project, H-3: Mayor's Report C.i41 01st.lan 6,_4" a ..4r Vk,&lou"*. kill 44.- None �. �u► �4,6a a w 04 c w : R� H-4: Clerk's Report Councilman Ambarian explained his negative reply to the telephone poll, regarding the cutting edges for the grader, Ile felt it was bad management to wait for the snow.

Councilman Ambarian noted the Borough Port a Harbor study will have a rewrite of Kenai River problem by the Doe. 10 meeting. He is concerned about a possible split between harbor Commission efforts and the Borough effort. lie is not against the Harbor r7nmmission effort, but a cooperativo effort would be better. Councilman Aber said $5,000 can't do much, he will got a copy of the old Dept. of Engineor's report. We cannot do anything about the river problems with $5,000. Councilman Ambarian said he would like to meet with Bob Potorkin and see. Mayor O'Reilly noted we should plot with the state logislators long before the session Councilman Aber said the $000,000 available for development of harbors has boon there a long time. Mayor O'Reilly asked Atty. Delahay if the money can be used for development. Atty. Delahay said he will check. Councilman Aber said this was researched before, we need a feasibility study first. Councilwoman Glick asked if this would include planning. Mayor A'Reilly said Councilman Ambarian will meet with Mr. Bigelow and Bob Petorkin, we need a temporary plan. Councilman Aber said the government would require a study, Councilman Ambarian said Mr. Bigelow to rewriting the study. Mayor O'Reilly discussed the Tract D, Roper proposal. lie recommended it not be approved. Councilwoman Glick said Mr. Roper has a lease on Tracts HOC. He signed the rights over to Kenai Harbor Development, was this con- sumated? Mayor O'Reilly replied the Harbor Commission is trying to keep Tract D out of the Tracts BaC problem. Mayor O'Reilly directed the administration to send a letter to the federal gov- ernment applying for Port of Entry status for KGaai . I KENAI CITY COUNCIL.

Motion passed by roll call vote, I. PERSONS PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD Ruby Coyle: The Harbor Commission should be commended for the direction it is taking. We have been a first class City for 20 years, and nothing has been done for the river and harbor area. We should go full speed ahead to develop the river, the Councils have not done their share. She also mentioned the Water Resources Hearing to be held Monday night, As we get industry, we will need a water line. Ife should push for this. There was no concern shown for Schedule A in the report, we should object, If they go above wells to give water to N. Kenai, the laity will suffer, why not go to the Kenai River and forget Schedule A. Councilman Aber noted that there is an ordinance that requires approval by the City to drill within the City. Mrs, Coyle suggested the City should research this ordinance to see if we have rights to the water. Councilwoman t3liek said the meeting of Dec, 3 will go into this, then the Borough Assemby acts, If there is much comment, there will be a second meeting. She asked Atty.
