Atty, had re-subm tted a deed to Texaco for Lot 60 Aleyeska S/D, so the City should be receiving the money soon. S. the Water 6 Sewer lines to the new office Building, Lot 8, Aleyeska, are about finished; need three more lengths of pipe to be installed, plus the man hole, and it will be ready to hook-up. 6. Jaynes inquired as to arrangements made to pay Allan Corthell for his work on the RDA Cook Inlet Industrial Air Park application and Subdivision Plat. He also wanted to know if W3S will be going there and on to the Terminal Building this summer. Corthell said he had done the work in the hope he could get the engineering for development of the CHAP. He will meet with Council in special session on i 22 June with a proposal. Regarding W&S to the Terminal, He said it's a matter of critical timing; ' when the building will be ready for occupation. Since the EDA agent in Anchorage has resigned, the City must work thru the Seattle officel also delivery of materials Is slow. There was diecussion as to benefit to be had from a sprinkler system, sav- Ingo on insurance, etc. 7. Cogfusing correspondence had been received from the Washington, D. Co office of EDA. One letter said they had not reed. the City's acceptance of the grant offer; another letter, dated prior to first letter, said acceptance had been received, and included forms for further development of the project. Just to be safe, the City - sent a night letter that acceptance had been mailed on 6 June and to reply by wire if same was not received by then. The Attorney reportedt 1. The City has filed an answering brief in HEA ve. City. 2, Re CAB -Cordova; PNA has moved to re -open the case; the City's brief will be submitted on 24 June --reiterating the City's position that we don't want any less service on the Paninsula. The recommendation that Cordova Airlines work out of Kenai came from the Bureau of Counsel; there will actually be two more decisions -- first from the Hearing Examiners and then from the Board of the CAB. 3. Fisher inquired if the City wanted to have a representative at the PSC hearing on Anchorage Natural Gas' application? The City sent a letter and resolution, we could send a letter offering to testify if they desired. Hearing is 24 June. City Council Minutes 15 June 66, Page two Atty's* report, cont'd.: 4. Fisher had instructed the Clark to submit the balance of the Caughran W&S construction Funds to the Bonding Companies for disposal. This was done• 5. Harrison had requested a close check on adoption of the Ordinance re Uniform Building Code: (#97). This Ord* is not affected by the Zoning Ord* and should be treated like any other Ordinance. Consequently, the date of second hearing is now posted and will be 6 July. better 6. Fisher and Harrison had decided it would be V for both parties if the Atty. worked on an hourly fee basis, rather than a monthly retainer plus court work. Council concutred with the hourly basis @ $30.00 per hour. 7. Condemnation actions on South approach zones were filed today. His assistant, James Hornaday, had worked on these; luckily he had done some of the same type of work before. The Planning Commission reported: Numerous requests had been made by Mr. Oberts for re -coning for various clients he has work with. The Commission asked him to make a'aurvey as to what the land -owners wanted. There was considerable discussion as to value, benefits, and also hazards of re -honing in large areas. The Citv cannot furnish services and utilities demanded _ by business when these areas are too far &part. The Zoning ordinance allows for variances and exceptions which are fairly easy to get by the old ordinance. How- ever, the now ordinance, effective 17 June, requires a public hearing. Planning Commission and Council invite businessmen to come to them with their problems, but they do not seem to want to follow the proper procedures for requesting re -zoning, etc. Seaman moved, Meeks seconded, the Planning Commission set a public hearing for regnning an area 2 1/2 acres deep from Forest Drive to the North City Limits. Motion passed unanimously. Property owners are to be notified. Also Corthell will talk with FAA about the 5 yr. lease review clause; it may be possible to limit the rate of change in lease costs. He will report on this at next week's meeting. The Mayor reported: 1. He thinks he can no longer serve the City effectively on the Borough Assembly and wants to resign. Considerable discussion followed. Meeks moved, Cone seconded, Seaman should represent the City on the Borough Assembly. Motion carried unanimously. 2. Dye also inquired as to application for funds for paving some of the City Streets He also recommends a bonding issue to fund this at some time when there are other paving projects in the area. Galliett says the City has applied for planning for paving two loops ; a draft has been made, and it should be typed on the new EDA forms and submitted. We were told it would be given top priority because the pencilled draft was already submitted, but arrived at a time when funds were expended. There will soon be a new appropriation, and the typed application should be sent in. Item E-2: Gravel bid: There being only one bid to consider, Meeks moved, Seaman seconded, to accept Better Concrete Products bid for gravel @ $.50 per cubic yd. - Motion passed with Cone abstaining. The Clerk's Memo stated a bid had been received 48 hours after the bid opening from Donald, Inc. Council recommended it be returned. ?-It Space for Redoubt Flying Service - a temporary base until lot in Small Air- craft Apron can be readied.

F-7t Clerk reported phone call from Bore Assessor revising downward by $1959480 the total real property evaluation in the City. Council was alarmed that this figure might be still further decreased as the 66-67 Fiscal budget was adopted on the strength of the first figure. It was realized, these sums are preliminary figures, subject to clerical arrora, etc., but there should be no further revisions at least due to re-evaluations, etc. Clerk was instructed to protest to the Bore. Seaman movadv Meeks seconded, a letter be sent to the Bore protesting the lowering of real property evaluation In the City. Passed unanimously. Seaman moved, Cone seconded, to adopt Res. 66-269 setting the 1966 tax levy at 10 mile. Passed unanimously. The Mayor read two letters Marshall & Myer had directed to the Bore on 10 Jan# and on Feb. 16 requesting Information on Bore fiscal affairs with relation to the Boro's school Bonds. The seemed unable to get answer from the Boro, and had sent copies of their lettir to the Mayor with an appeal to try to get some action. Mrs. Coyle also sugglsted arrangements should be made to get the 65-66 Bore audit underway this year, and not wait months to get it going. The Mayor presented Res. 066-26 setting the real property tax levy at 10 mils, and called for public discussion. This is purely an operational budget we are using. There being no discussion from the floor, the public hearing was closed. Seaman moved, Cone seconded, to adopt Re. #66-26 setting the 1966 tax levy at 10 mils.
