Galliett, Jr. Final Plans must be submitted to HHFA by 3 Feb. 1965 with approv-
al from the Federal AViation Agency - this had been received; approval from the
Department of Health - Galliett will handle this; recommendations from the
Kenai Airport and Planning Commissions and the Council.

ods of construction (bonding, grants, private enterprise0, time of construction,
scope of construction (the design has alternate phases), etc.

Report and Final Report on Size, Scope, etc. of the Building. He, Council land
members discussed the Plans, Design and Feasibility Study.
After considerable discussion the Mayor asked the Commissions for their opinions:
Planning Commission recommended the plans be approved. Airport Commission heart-
ily endorses the plans and would like to see the work go ahead.
Homer Swires presented Resolution # 65-1 Approving the Completed Planning Docu-
ments for the Terminal Building, and moved for its adoption. Motion was seconded
by McCann and unanimously approved.

plane facility, extension of the run -way, maintenance building was also dis-
cussed. Roguszka explained the need for writing letters to the Legislators for
the additional money theoretically allotted to Kenai last year, but not approp-
riated. Completion of the project depends on getting: 1. $15,000 for the
mtce. building, 2. $15,000 for the Access Road, 3. $10,000 for the Small
