CITY MANAGER'S REPORT N5-78
(March 1, 1978)
1. There are several meetings scheduled for this upcoming week. Monday night
we have the Council work session relative to leasing policies and the Carr
Gottstein lease. Tuesday is what I consider a very important meeting - the
public hearing on the Corps of Engineers Kenai River review, which will be held
at the Borough Building in Soldotna at 7:30. The siqnificance of this meeting
is that the Corp of Engineers has classified, by the maps provided in their
summary report, a large portion of the eastern section of the City as wetlands.
By classifying them as wetlands, they have permit authority over almost anything
that is to occur on these wetlands. The system then has a capability of asking
for a permit to do various things. However, there is a series of items which are
listed as items which permits will not normally be issued for. One of the
categories of significance is the installation of overhead or underground utility
lands, which includes water and sewer. I see from a review that this would even
threaten the development of acreage in Wildwood to support the Alpetco operation
in that these lands, based on the criteria apparently used by the Corp of
Engineers, put them in the wetlands category. I feel that this will be a very
important meeting and would suggest that our Council review the book which we
have in the office and plan to attend the meeting at the Borough.
Wednesday, of course, we have the work session scheduled with the Planning and
Zoning Commission for a presentation by the Borough Planning Department
preceding the regular Council meeting. J
On Thursday, we have the Airport Advisory Committee meeting with the Airport '
Master Planners. Based on Council direction, they will be discussing a
heliport and certain economic viability studies.
2. We have public hearings on the following items:
(a). Ordinance No. 389-78, which provides for anti -recessionary funding for
a temporary cataloger at the library.
(b).. Ordinance No. 390-78, which provides for the declaring of certain
property as surplus to enable us to have our public auction later this month.
(c). Beverage Dispensary License for the Sheffield House.
(d). Beverage Dispensary License for the Elks Club.
(e). Renewal of Beverage Dispensary and Retail license for Eadie's
Frontier Club. There will be a report by the police department relative
to recent activities and pending criminal activities.
M . Twin Cities Raceways is requesting renewal of their beverage Dispensary
License, which I believe is limited to bper and wine.
1J
3. Correspondence. We have received a letter from the Fine Arts group requesting
that the C ty provide liability insurance for the paintings which they plan to
display at the Fine Arts Center.
4. Under Old Business, we have the Salamatoff Seafoods lease. Data is being
prepared by the City Attorney.
The Attorney will also report on item "B", the Redi-Electric maintenance contract.
Item "C" is in reference to the Sno Shoe Gun Club. The Attorney will report on
the extension of the lease.
Item "D" is on the agenda as the resolution to accept the release of Tract 0-5,
which is the aviation airport lands to be released to the City for non -aviation
uses. I have made contact with the FAA for a conference with Mr. Wilcox and
Mr. Tanaka, Programs and Airports Chiefs respectively, and Mr. Wilcox is out of
town and will not be back until the 6th. We have a meeting scheduled for the 7th,
at which time the City Attorney and I will travel to Anchorage and lay out not
only this particular probiem, but problems such as Alaska Statebank's access,
the proposed request for release for First Federal Savings and Loan and whatever
other information has developed from the Airport Master Plan Study. Of course,
I will ask that the City Attorney be briefed on the past history of the City
relative to our difficulties over time.
Item "E" is the Seward resolution requesting the legislature to grant planning
and zoning authority to the first class and home -rule cities. This is on the
agenda at the request of Mrs. Glick.
i
Item "F" is the reconsideration of the Carr-Gottstein lease, which you will be
discussing Monday.
S. Ordinance No. 391-78 amends Section I-6 of the Code regarding refuse collection,
which has been prepared by the City Attorney to reflect the Council's desires in
this matter.
6. Ordinance No. 392-78 amends the 1977-78 general fund budget to provide for
receipt of donations to the library made by individuals for books i!, the amount
of $400.
7. Ordinance 393-78 increases estimated revenues and appropriations utilizing
anti -recessionary funds in the amount of $39,000. 1 would like to point out that
these monies must be obligated prior to April 1st or the money will revert to
the Federal Treasury. The Administration has contacted all department heads at
a recent staff conference and asked essentially for "Wish Lists". We received such
a list from every department. The library asked for books in an open amount and
some cassette tapes and phone discs. We provided, initially, the funding for the
cassette tapes and the phone discs which is $600 and the balance of the $39,000 which
was not legitimately earmarked in other applications would be applied to the library
for books in general. A total of approximately $6,000 was provided to the library
for its several needs.
The Fire Department asked for approximately $4,500 worth of supplies and materials,
Including fire hose, fire extinguishers, training material. However, because we
f _"
felt that two specific items were not eligible under the law, they were deleted.
These two items were Scott Packs and a recording EMT training device. We have
asked for a sum of $2,300 for the Fire Department.
The Police Department asked for drug kits, firearms, training materials,
investigating supplies, which amounted to approximately $1,600. The Dispatchers
requests were essentially office supplies and because they have a balance in
their account, these funds were not recommended.
The City Attorney requested books, reference materials, federal regulations,
law encyclopedias. These items totaled approximately $1,600. He has also
asked for temporary employment of Jan Williams at $20 per hour for 50 hours to
work on the recodification of the code.
Public Works asked for almost $2,000 relative to reference materials and various
publications. In the Streets Department, they asked for a little over $12,000
which includes earphone headsets for Airport equipment. I feel that this is
safety equipment and, therefore, justifiable under the provisions of the law.
The bulk of the money under the Streets Department was requested for street name
signs and other related materials. This would give us a good supply of raw
materials which we can actually use to prepare the signs on our sign baking
machine. In the Shop, they requested approximately $9,000. We were required to
eliminate a number of items which we felt were capital equipment, ranging from
a heavy duty jack to spark plug cleaners, battery cleaners and a number of other
Items. Their request has been reduced to approximately $6,400. In the Water
and Sewer section, we approved some hosings and other materials by reducing their
request from some $4,000 to almost $3,000. The Treatment Plant, because of our
_! increased operation and maintenance requirements, requested some $1,500 which
we approved. In Animal Control, $1,500 was requested and we felt that we had to
delete the portable kennels that were requested which reduced their request to
$780.
I have the complete work list in the office and will present it to the Council 4
for review on Wednesday night or as you desire throughout the week. Because
it is so long, I have not xeroxed it to give each individual of the Council a
copy.
8. Resolution No. 78-22 was prepared to follow up on what I believe is the conclusion
of the Construction Committee of the Council and the Council's action at their last
meeting, approving their recommendations to definitively authorize the necessary
work to insure that the automatic system works in the pump house at the reservoir.
I feel that this should be cleanly authorized at this time. We have no requirement
._ to wait for EDA approval on this.
9. Resolution No. 78-28 confirms the telephone poll which authorized the lease
of sto,me space for City records and property. The poll was in favor, five to two.
I feel that I have to agree with the staff recommendation that this is the best
action to take.
1'
10. Resolution No. 78-29 provides for authorization to enter into a "User's
Agreement" relative to criminal history records. We must agree to abide by
certain State and Federal rules before we can receive access to the national
crime center computer records.
11. Resolution No. 78-30 is the resolution requested by Councilman Whelan
relative to use of the North Slope royalty gas.
12. Resolution No. 78-31 is a transfer of funds within the Parks and Recreation
Department. This was prepared at my request to insure that we have funding so
that we can start our Parks and Recreation program in late May or early June
as the weather permits. Our utilization of funds last year essentially wiped
out the salaries and wages account in this area and this is simply a transfer
of funds to meet the last part of this fiscal year's needs.
13— Resolution No. 78-32 is a transfer of funds within the Animal Control
budget. We have not yet received the nitrogen chamber and vie simply had to
destroy more animals than we had provided for in the budget. I will point out
that we have received confirmation of shipment of the chamber and it should
be here within a relatively short period of time.
14. Resolution No. 78-33 is a resolution to authorize final payment for the
new am+-ulance. By the terns of the bid, we are required to make payment upon
acceptance of the ambulance. Information we have at this time indicates that
the ambulance will be available on or about the 15th of March. We, therefore,
need Council authorization at this time to hand carry the check to Seattle
and be prepared on inspection of the vehicle to hand it to the vendor.
15. Resolution No. 78-34 is a transfer of funds. At this time, the City Clerk
has not been able to purchase the microfilm machine for storage of the City
records basically because the Borough has not determined what system they will
utilize. Apparently, they have not made up their minds or will not make up
their minds this year. We do have a shortfall in City funds for rental space.
This would have developed even if we had not been moved out of the old public
works area in that the space we were leasing for the City offices was computed
on one basis of the quarter remaining being a public access to this area.
Actually, we are using the entire area and the billing to the terminal is more
than we provided in the budget.
16. Resolution No. 78-36 is a request for transfer of funds within the terminal
budget. We have a requirement to check some Honeywell thermostats and we must
bring a Honeywell man down from Anchorage to do this. We have had problems in the
FSS and we need to have these checked. We also need to provide funds for erecting
the new light pole we received and we prefer to clean up that budget at this time.
17. Resolution No. 78-36 is an authorization to apply for a grant application to
the State Department of Environmental Conservation for modifications to the sewer
treatment plant. t would like to point out that we are asking for 60% of the entire
project costs. We may not be able to achieve that full funding, There is a
restriction within the DEC regulations that only costs that were incurred less than
j 120 days before the grant offer are eligible for grant participation. Therefore,
there are certain engineering costs which may not be eligible, but the application
does ask for full 50% funding.

18. Resolution No. 78-37 is a resolution authorizing the award of bid for
purchase of a van for the Senior Citizens Program. This is fully funded
out of that one time, special Title III Grant which we received from the
State.
19. Resolution No. 78-38 is a transfer of funds from the Senior Citizens
Program Title III and at the request of the Attorney, because of legal
complications, he prefers that we not use professional services account for
the outreach worker. There is a problem with insurance coverage and we can
best handle it as classifying them as a temporary employee of the City.
20. Resolution No. 78-39 is a request for authorization to apply for the
1979 Title III grant. Some time ago the Council passed a resolution of
letter of intent which indicated that we were ggoing to continue the Title
III program and we would provide in -kind some $9,100 in city services. We
further expected some $1800 in volunteer services and, therefore, we are
applying for roughly a $30,000 State program, making the total project some
$40,000. The Title III provides for a 75/26 mix and we will meet this
requirement with the City funds and the volunteer funds being provided.
21. We have a request by Kenai Central High School for authorization for
a permit for games of chance and skill.
22. We also have a lease request from Oscar Thomas and Carl Kobbins for
lease of a parcel on Willow Street. This lease request is not complete in
that Mr. Kobbins has not signed the lease. However, Mr. Thomas requested
that it go before the Council as a special exception for approval, subject
to Mr. Kobbins signing the lease in that he needs to be able to proceed with
his financing.
23. We have an amendment to lease with the FAA relative to the ground check
stations. There are no monies involved and it is simply a paperwork requirement.
24. Malone Survey has submitted a statement for payment relative to services
rendered. This refers specifically to the FAA reserve across from the Katmai
where we have surveying being conducted to establish the metes and bounds of
that tract, which includes the tower site and Care Center. We have that plat
available and we are working with First Federal as to which tract they want for
their building.
25. Bills from CH214 Hill have been submitted for sewer treatment plant
modifications and for the facilities plan.
26. I would like to inform the Council that the lease for the Chamber of
Commerce Cabin has gone to them for their signature and on its return will be
presented to the Planning Commission and Council for execution.
27. I have called the Anchorage EOA office requesting that they jack up the
Seattle EAA office relative to the use of the surplus funds. 1 have not yet
received a letter from Clyde Courtnage. I expect one in the near future.
— - -_-�~
--
28. 1 would like the CEIP grant monies for water and sewer engineering to be
discussed and we should come up with some determination of the areas we desire
to have engineered and we should go out for proposals on engineering so that
this work can commence and be wrapped up as soon as possible. In the same
area, we should complete the engineer selection for the Airport resurfacing
so that we can get that application forwarded to the FAA.
29. A resolution on dumping disposal is being finalized and will be available
to the Council on Tuesday in their additions.
