KENAI CITY CCU':CIL MINUT',.S JT_ 4E 10, 1964
Roll Call at 8PPI showed McCann, seeks '"iorin A- Dye present. Lofstedt,
Swires A, -tnackstedt absent.
T;r. Hon Thiel reported on the pror;ess of the ;,:dter F• sewer to i-ate. rie
reported that approximately 4200 ft. of water line was in and that about
2600ft. of that had been tested, also that 900 ft. of sewer line had been
laid and tested and back filled on Cook St. He also reported that the
screens for the wells were in Whittier. Mr. Thiel said he had sent all
the necessary reports needed to HH.FA and DPH. 'iayor Dye announced that
Mr. Dave Brown would be in Kenal Thurslay in relation to the W/S.
Discussion as the removal of more fence fl•orn Boyer's property, which is
a disposal area for the w/s, followed. Boyer said he expected the city
to put the fence back in place as soon as this area is no longer needed.
Mr. Boyer then approached the council on installing his sever the and a
drainage ditch, since all of the rater rro-- Seamans drains to his place
eausin^ extensive errosion. Councii said nn to the sewer tile and W.
Thiel suggested a compromise on the drQtnare ditch. A da•n could be built
with earth and then a barrel culvert inserted thru the bluff to allow
surface drainage. This crild be done at the same time clean up of the
area is being done in relation to the w/s. A fi-ure of 28 barrels was
arrived at and a cost of 8125.00. McCann moved and Morin seconded that
the City install this at a price of 125.00. It was to be noted however,
tho the city is doing this for Mr. Boyer, the City will not assume re-
sponsibility for the drainage ditch at a later date. Passed unanimously.
Mr. Morin then brought to councils attenti:n that a statement had been
F nade at the last council meeting as to the payment of plumbers on shift
work. Mr. Morin then read a paragraph from the Alaska Pipe Trades Agree-
ment- Sec. 8 Page 33. This refutes the statement made on double time
for plumbers on Z!/S.
Considerable discussion followed on a bridle for the sewer outfall cul-
vert. A bridge would eleminate the dash out of the enlvert due to tides
and ice damage in the winter. The bridge being built with eartlquake
damase assistance. Mr. Thiel was to check on the cost of this with PHS.
Motion was made by Mr. :Morin that a bridge be constructed to handle the
i outfall sewer thru earthouske funds PHS. 6econded by Vir. `_cCann. Passed
unanimously.
Hook-up fees were then disau.gr�d. It uas decided that a meeting should be
scheduled with Mr. Thiel, Mr. Galliett and the Council, on assessmont __-
4 and connection fees.
Il Trooper English introduced the new trooper, taking Bob Robertson's place,
Trooper Eckho££.
K' Jim Goff questioned council as to their intent on benifits for city employ-
ees. After considerable discussion, Mr. Goff was told that this subject
would be discussed and considered at budget time.
I-Ir. Boyer and Reverbsd Shafer approached council in re-,ards to the removal
of the berm on the street between the Methodist Church and across from
the hotel. If the City would move the ber^i out, Mr. 9oyer wo•ild tnen
seed the area. No action was taken at this time.
COUNCIL MINUTES( Conti.)
I-?r. Haller reported he had presented to four different construction com-
panies, proposals for the stairway down the bluff. Fie received only
two bids. Borders 3uilt for a bid of :1510.00 and Holt Construction for
a bid of 0815.21. Norin loved Jileeks seconded that the city accept the
bid of $815.21 from riolt Construction for the construction of the stair-
way. Passed unanimously.
',Tr. Stan Thompson reported that the force account work is moving along
very well at the airport. Stripping of the sand pit was very nearly
completed as of this report. An estimate for a sub -plan with approxi-
mately!e0 or 50 aerns of land on the airport lands had been presented
by Mr. Roguszka. This plan was to mace this acreage into an actual sub-
division. The survey and entire costs to a7ount to $11500. This would
help in keeping the entire airport lands fro-.. beinr stall aced. +r.
Thompson had directed Mr. io :uszlca to �-e to FAA and see if their approval
would be given. Council reported to Yr. Tho-ndson on the pick-up and
D-8 cat. which the airport had been using and had returned to the Street
Dept. in very bad shape. He was to check into this.
Mr. Strandburg requested --ravel forthe drains ,e ditch in behalf of Iir.
Jordan, at the new high school site. This --ravel to be used for the
installation of the drain tile. Ten loads of a ,good grade of pit run
would be sufficient. It was discussed that perhaps Johnny could get
the gravel from the airport pit and save the City the expense of having
to have it hauled in from some place else.
Joe Kuchta reporting on the up keep of the sanitary pit suggested that
t
the City install barrels for the people to use. Thus eliminating their
using just one area of the pit, also that the local g arba,-e collecter
ipay a fee toward the use of the pit. A letter from the Health Office
pretaining to this will be received by the city. Mr. Kuchta, also
reported that the State wants to break side contracts with communities
to entice them to go into their own health departments. Mr. Kuchta,
however, on his own can take side contracts and he wishes to negotiate
with the City. At present the City MW in accordance with their contract
with the State, has been given one fourth of his time. Ten hours a
week or 520 hours a year, an hourly t.age �f :>2.30. This would be his
offer now but with States concurrence. Considerable discussion was held
on this, but no action taken. A draft ^f a letter fro ;ir. :Cuchta is
.,�
to be given to the City to be presented to council next week, relating
'
that Mr. Kuchta+s clerical assisstance be continued. This also is to
be discussed next week.

`
a cover letter stating that they can re-imburse us the check if we no
longer need pay since we are eligible to receive these tidelands soon.
