MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager
FROM: Tony Prior, Fire Chief
DATE: April 11, 2023
SUBJECT: Ordinance 3346-2023 Inflatable Rescue Boat
The department has the inability to perform water-based rescues in two geographic areas. Our
current Safe Boat works for the majority of our rescues, however, when we are unable to launch
year round due to the City’s launch availability, we lose our ability to respond.
Area 1: Kenai River (from Warren Ames bridge down river) into the inlet. There are times of the
year when the boat launch has ice or snow on it and we are unable to launch the Safe Boat, or
during a low tide, we are also unable to get our Safe Boat across the sand bar at the convergence
of the river and the inlet. These situations have happened multiple times, including recently when
we had an individual stuck in the mud during a rising tide. This would have been a perfect
opportunity to launch this proposed boat from the North beach and access the person in distress
from the water. If we had a plane go down in the water at this particular time of year, it would also
be an option for rescue.
Area 2: Our response area on the Kenai River from Warren Ames bridge up to Pillars boat launch.
This area of the river is particularly influenced by the tide and can be very shallow in many areas.
Our Safe Boat is a heavy boat that draws approximately 3 feet of water. We do not take this boat
above the Warren Ames bridge unless there is a large/high tide, and even in that case, it would
be a risk to do so. This boat would provide us access to this section of river to affect water-based
rescues.
In addition to the 2 areas mentioned above, this additional boat bolsters our water rescue plan for
airport emergencies as well as improves our overall capabilities of rescue with 2 boats in the water
during any water-based emergency. The survival of any person in the water is crucially dependent
upon the speed at which we get to them and how fast we get them out of the water. A person in
our cold water has approximately 10 minutes before they lose meaningful movement
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZtAM5ZTn4k&t=72 and 1 hour before they potentially
succumb to hypothermia.
We have received additional revenue from the Supplemental Emergency Medical Transport
program that was not budgeted in FY23. We are requesting to use a portion of this funding to
Page 9
Page 2 of 2
purchase this boat and provide training during our upcoming Rescue Boat Operator course in
June.
We believe it is in the best interest of the City to improve our rescue capabilities by adding this
rescue boat to our fleet and we thank you for your consideration of this Ordinance.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
FROM: Council Members Victoria Askin and Deborah Sounart
DATE: April 12, 2023
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3347-2023 - Establishing the Storefront and Streetscape
Improvement Program and Appropriating $50,000 from the General Fund.
The Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Program Ordinance is proposed as a way to provide
our local brick and mortar businesses an avenue to repair, improve, and enhance their storefront
and streetscape; thus, making them more accessible, aesthetically pleasing, and welcoming to
potential consumers.
To this end, the Ordinance consists of a matching fund source up to $10,000 to assist local
business owners in renovating their storefront and streetscape.
Upon acceptance and completion of the proposed renovations by the City Planning Department,
funds will be disbursed when confirmation of work has been verified by site visit and upon receipt
of invoices documenting relevant costs.
The timing is right for this program. Yes, most of our small businesses have survived the
pandemic; but, they could benefit from a partnership with the City. Also, the natural foliage of the
City, our beautiful spruce trees, have died and are in the process of being cut down, exposing
aged buildings.
This program is designed to be an investment-partnership with our business owners and the City.
By investing with our City businesses, the City will eventually see an economic return of increased
sales tax, resulting in long-term economic health and stability, amongst other benefits.
This Ordinance demonstrates pride, support, and investment of our businesses. Furthermore, this
program has the potential to begin developing a more aesthetic atmosphere to our spruce tree
mitigated and denuded city.
In addition, it meets some of the goals set forth in our 2030 Comprehensive Plan.
Thank you for your consideration.

by sharing the costs of storefront and streetscape improvement projects to strengthen the
business activity and enhance economic vitality in Kenai.

positive climate for private investment

o The number and type of specific improvements proposed
o The degree to which the project furthers the goals and objectives of the current City
of Kenai Comprehensive Plan
● Approval by the Program Administrator is not a formal plans review and does not
guarantee that projects will be approved for development or building permits without
alterations to the design. If you have questions about permitting, please visit the Building
Official or Planning & Zoning Department for a preliminary review of the proposal.
Step 3: Program Agreement
Applicants must send the following documents to the Program Administrator within 60 days of
the date on the approval letter.
❏ Two (2) quotes for the eligible scope of the work
❏ A cost breakdown from the chosen contractor(s)
❏ The State of Alaska business license number of the general contractor, or
subcontractors if there is no general contractor
❏ If you (the building owner or company) are doing the work yourself, only
materials will be an eligible cost
❏ An overall budget summary of the project
❏ A copy of all permit applications
The Program Administrator or designee will pull the property owner(s) record on the Kenai
Peninsula Borough Assessor’s records and to confirm the legal address and property owner(s).
These documents are used to create a draft Program Agreement. The Program Agreement is a
standard form contract identifying the maximum grant amount, the approved project design
and the eligible improvements that the applicant may seek reimbursement for once construction
is complete.

Program Guide
Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Grant
If this documentation is not provided within 60 days of the approval letter, the project file will be
closed and the funding reallocated. You may reapply to the program during the next application
period provided that no construction has begun, and with the understanding that funding is
not guaranteed.
Step 4: Construction
Projects have 18 months from when the Program Agreement is executed to complete
construction in order to be eligible to receive the grant. Changes may require reevaluation of
the approved grant amount from the Program Administrator. Changes to the design during the
construction phase must be approved by the Program Administrator.
As soon as the project is complete, provide a written notification via email or letter to the Program
Administrator.
Step 5: Reimbursement
The Program Administrator will visit the site to ensure that the project complies with the terms
of the Program Agreement. Deficiencies will be noted and must be addressed to the satisfaction
of the City before the grant is issued. The City is not obligated to disburse the entire grant
amount if the actual cost of the project does not exceed the grant amount.
Applicants must send the following documents to the Program Administrator:
❏ All invoices and proof of payment for eligible work identified in the Grant Program
Agreement. All contractor invoices must be paid in full. Purchase orders will not be
accepted as proof of payment.
❏ State of Alaska contractor license numbers and Kenai Peninsula Borough Sales Tax
Certificates for all subcontractors
❏ A cost summary for the work
❏ The most recent Kenai Peninsula Borough Tax Compliance certification showing the
property is current on property and sale taxes
Documentation must be submitted in a timely manner. If documentation is not submitted
within 30 days after completion of the project, the project file will be closed and grant funding
reallocated. It may up to six weeks to issue a reimbursement check for the completion of the
approved project or portion thereof.

Step 6: Maintenance
All storefront and streetscape renovations supported by the Storefront and Streetscape
Improvement Program must be maintained for five (5) years. If the owner fails to maintain the
building or site improvements, they may be required to repay up to 50% of the grant.

Important to Know
The Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Program team is here to support you through
the program process; however, there are some key things to understand about the program in
order to be successful.
● If you start work before the Program Agreement is signed, the project will not receive a
grant-- even if it was approved by the Program Administrator.
● It is your responsibility to manage contractor(s) and keep track of invoices.
● It is your responsibility to obtain all required permits (e.g., building permits, site
plan/landscape approval, sign permits, right-of-way permit).
● It is your responsibility to request approval from the Program Administrator for any
changes in design after the Program Agreement is fully executed. Changes may require
reevaluation of the approved grant amount from the Program Administrator. Changes
to the design during the construction phase must be approved by the Program
Administrator.
● It is your responsibility to be aware of deadlines. If you miss the deadline to submit
documentation, the program file will be closed and the grant funding reallocated.
● Grant amounts will not be increased due to changes in project scope or cost overruns.

Design Principles
Customers prefer to spend time in places that are interesting and attractive. The Storefront and
Streetscape Improvement Program supports this by encouraging renovations to existing
commercial buildings and properties that positively impact the overall community by assisting
business owners who have struggled to keep up with costly repairs and improvements needed
to their building(s) and business site.
The Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Program design principles identify the
features/characteristics of a building that will support more functional, attractive and accessible
businesses in existing commercial buildings or properties. The principles should guide the design of
a storefront and streetscape renovation and are used to review applications to the program.
Applications should strive to meet or exceed as many of the design principles as possible. We
encourage you to explore ways to fulfil the design principles that go beyond the examples listed
here. Be creative!
Check out the Ten Tips for Storefront and Streetscape Renovations at the end of this Guide for
more ideas. The design principles are:
Improvements contribute to a lively pedestrian experience.
Renovations to the building should improve how pedestrian friendly and lively the commercial
corridor is by adding or improving things for shoppers or visitors to do. Ways to meet this
principle could include:
● transparent, uncluttered windows for window shopping
● expanded or new windows or doors
● patios, walk-up counters or other commercial activities that creates an active urban design
● benches, bike parking, or other things for people to do or interact with
Improvements support the businesses, building and commercial corridors.
Building design should help to market the building to prospective tenants, or help communicate
to customers what the business tenant offers. Ways to meet this principle could include:
● overall building design and/or colors that that support business branding and the
overall commercial character of the corridor
● improved signage for the tenants
● adding adaptable signage infrastructure should businesses change
● improving the usability of the building by adding entrances or adding/widening windows
Page 25
12
Program Guide
Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Grant
or adding space for window displays
Improvements are focused on people, not cars.
Buildings should feel comfortable and interesting for people walking by. This means avoiding
long, uninterrupted storefronts and walls, and making business entrances obvious.
● storefronts should create visual interest through regular entrances, varied articulation,
and visual permeability
● making sure the main entrance(s) are easy to identify
● signage can be easily read from the sidewalk
● lighting plans should be attractive and avoid overspill/light pollution
Improvements address all four seasons.
Renovations should make the building more functional and attractive throughout the year, and
should be comfortable for customers in all kinds of weather. Ways to address all seasons might
include:
● using durable and weather resistance materials
● adding landscaping that looks great in summer and winter
● adding permanent patios in sunny locations
● adding/repairing awnings/canopies
● use lights and colors to make buildings stand out
Improvements support accessibility.
Some people use canes, crutches, wheelchairs, strollers and other aids to get around. The more
people who can enter your building means more customers overall. Ways to support
accessibility may include:
● ramps in front of doorways
● handrails
● large address numbers
● wide entrances
● adding automated doors
● easy to read signs
Improvements contribute to safe streets.
People feel safer when they can clearly see what is happening on the street and inside the
building. Ways to meet this principle could include:
Page 26
13
Program Guide
Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Grant
● lighting that illuminates alcoves and streetscape while minimizing light pollution
● landscaping that clearly identifies where people should and should not go
● landscaping that supports clear sight lines
● encouraging the uses you want to see in front of your building
● see-through or low-height fencing
Properties with off-street front parking lots must improve the connection and safety
for pedestrians between the building and the sidewalk.
The aim of the program is to encourage attractive, pedestrian-friendly connectors/paths to
commercial areas through investment in existing commercial buildings. The program supports
buildings to become as street oriented as they can be. Examples may include:
● new sidewalks, walkways or crosswalks connecting the building with the public sidewalk
● new patios in parking stalls
● adding traffic calming such as painted markings, bollards or speed bumps
● adding landscaping between the sidewalk and parking, including rain garden or
bioswales
● curb cuts or other improvements to support universal accessibility

Ten tips for a well-designed storefront and streetscape renovation
The following 10 tips will help you design your new storefront and streetscape to support your
business and fulfill the Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Program design principles. This
will result in a better design for your business, a stronger application to the program, and a
more attractive commercial corridor.
1.Choose a good designer and contractor.
Most storefront renovation work will need a permit from the City. Choose a designer
and/or contractor who knows the regulations, bylaws and processes so your project is
completed safely, quickly and legally.
2.Does your storefront sell your business?
As a property owner, what kind of tenants do you want to attract? Will your building
support the branding and business image of your tenants through architectural style
and colors? Does your building add to the experience for people walking through the
Business Improvement Area?
3.Think about signage.
Signage supports brand awareness and helps customers find your business. Can you
easily see your signage when you’re standing on the sidewalk? Can you change the
signage if the business tenant changes? Blade signage is easy for pedestrians to see
and relatively low cost.
4.Where is the door?
Make it easy for customers to visit your business. Use color, lighting, signage, cladding
and architectural details to make it obvious where the main entrance(s) are. Visually
break up long buildings using color, texture and materials so you can easily spot
individual businesses.
5.Make it easy for people to get inside.
Customers can’t buy your product or service if they can’t visit your building. What can you
do to welcome people with mobility challenges into your place of business?
6.Support window shopping.
An attractive window display or a glimpse of the interior of your building is often the
first impression a customer will have of your business. Large, clear windows also
Page 29
16
Program Guide
Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Grant
promote safety because employees can keep an eye on what’s happening outside on
the street.
7. Attract customers all year round.
Customers stay longer when they’re not running from the weather. Consider installing
awnings for sun and weather protection, patio heaters for spring and fall, and adding
bright colors, winter-friendly landscaping and creative lighting to draw attention to your
building in the darker winter months.
8. Take pride in your investment.
Inappropriate siding breaks down more quickly, especially in our winter climate. Where
will the siding material be located? Will it need to withstand shovels, bikes, or high traffic
areas? Consider including brick, natural stone, metal panels or stucco instead of vinyl
or composite materials in high traffic areas. The Storefront and Streetscape
Improvement grant only applies to a building once so make the most of it!
9. Think about safety.
A welcoming and well cared for storefront and streetscape discourage crime. Lighting
and landscaping can be decorative and help keep your building and property safe and
secure. Use light to illuminate alcoves and nooks.
10. It’s more than the storefront.
Design doesn’t have to end at the storefront. Blur the line between your business and the
sidewalk or right-of-way. Adding patios, benches, window counters and landscaping
makes your storefront lively and attractive.

RESOLUTION NO. 2023-29
A RESOLUTION DEFERRING THE ANNUAL CITY FEE FOR TIDELAND LEASES FOR SHORE
FISHERIES TO PROVIDE RELIEF FOR SET NET OPERATORS LEASING TIDELANDS FROM THE
CITY FOR COMMERCIAL SETNET OPERATIONS IF SETNET FISHERIES REMAIN CLOSED IN THE
UPPER COOK INLET EASTSIDE SET NET FISHERY SALAMATOF BEACH SECTION.
WHEREAS, the City of Kenai owns tidelands that it leases to commercial set net operators in the Upper
Cook Inlet Eastside Set Net Fishery, Salamatof Section; and,
WHEREAS, pursuant to KMC 11.20.790-Tideland Lease for Shore Fisheries, the City charges an annual
rate of $300 for each lease as provided in the City’s Schedule of Rates, Charges and Fees; and,
WHEREAS, the City currently has ten shore fishery leases for eleven tracts of land producing annual
revenue of $3,300; and,
WHEREAS, the State of Alaska Department of Fish and Game has preemptively closed the Upper Cook
Inlet Eastside Set Net Fishery for the 2023 season; and,
WHEREAS, the only means for upper Cook Inlet Eastside Set Net Operators to participate in the fishery
is if it is opened by emergency order; and,
WHEREAS, due to the unlikelihood of the fishing opportunity for the 2023 season, many set net operators
may choose not to chance compounding their losses by spending additional funds to prepare for the
season; and,
WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the City to reduce the economic burden to its shore fishery lessees
that likely will not be able to operate this summer by deferring the annual $300 shore fishery lease fee
for the ten City of Kenai shore fishery lease holders in the Salamatof Beach Section of the Upper Cook
Inlet East Side Set Net Fishery.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA:
Section 1. That the annual lease fee of $300 per track as provided for in the City’s Schedule of Rates
Fees and Charges due July 1, 2023 for lease holders of shore fishery leases from the City of Kenai in
the Salamatof Beach Section of the Upper Cook Inlet Eastside Set Net Fishery is deferred with no
payments due until and unless further action is taken by the City to reestablish a fee for 2023 based on
unexpected fishing opportunity.
Section 2. That this Resolution takes effect immediately upon passage.
PASSED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, THIS 3RD DAY OF MAY, 2023.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Council Members
FROM: Mayor Gabriel
DATE: April 27, 2023
SUBJECT: Resolution 2023-29 – Eastside Set Net Fishery
The Upper Cook Inlet Eastside Set Net fishery has been preemptively closed by the Alaska
Department of Fish and Game. The City leases tracts of tidelands to set net operators in the
Salamatof Beach Section of this fishery for an annual fee of $300 per tract. The fishery closure
will have significant financial impacts to local set net operators. This Resolution proposes to defer
the annual fee for the City’s tideland leases for shore fisheries to help offset some of the economic
impact of this closure for fishery participants with City tideland leases. If the fishery is opened by
emergency order and fishing time is allowed, the Resolution allows for implementing a prorated
or reduced fee at a later date. The economic impact to the City of deferring or eliminating these
fees is not large, and while the fees are relatively small, anything the City can do to help its local
set netters during this unprecedented time is meaningful.
Your consideration is appreciated.

FROM: Scott Curtin, Public Works Director
DATE: April 25, 2023
SUBJECT: Resolution 2023-30 - Vintage Pointe Boiler Design & Replacement
The purpose of this memo is to request Council’s approval to reallocate capital project funding
within the Congregate Housing Improvement Capital fund. Funding for the Vintage Pointe Fire
Alarm / Control System Upgrade project was provided through adoption of the FY2019 budget.
Since that time, with the assistance of consultants, it has come to our understanding that the Fire
Alarm Control Panel is not in need of replacement at this time. There were specific devices tied
to the system, sensors and strobes as example that were not operating correctly. Those have
and continue to be replaced as part of routine annual maintenance within the facility. The funding
previously provided for that project, with passage of this Resolution, will now be used in support
of the boiler replacement project.
RSA Engineering has provided final construction documents to the City on April 14th, 2023 for our
final reviews. With the transfer of these funds, in the total amount of $128,744.21, the project is
anticipated to be bid in early May with completion expected within six months.
This is a priority project for the seniors residing at Vintage Pointe. Completion of the work will
safeguard the facilities heating system for years to come and is expected to provide utility cost
savings with the improved efficiencies the new equipment will provide.
Additionally within the current design, backup power generation equipment is listed as an additive
alternate. Staff combined the design efforts to save on costs. The current budget and recently
approved Capital Improvement Plan includes $100,000 to purchase the backup power equipment
after July 1st. Assuming project costs come in as anticipated, a contract amendment to the
successful contractor awarding the additive alternate will be completed. Completion of the backup
power generation equipment will provide further safeguards to the facility.
Photos below are of the Aerco Benchmark boilers intended as the basis of design.
Council’s approval is respectfully requested.

SUBJECT: Resolution 2023-31 – Municipal Roadway Improvements
The purpose of this memo is to request Council’s approval to reallocate funding within the
Municipal Roadway Improvements Capital Project Fund to allow several projects to bid and
ultimately be completed this year.
The Public Works Department is requesting to reallocate previously appropriated funds from the
Lilac Street Reconstruction project and supplement the funding for the North Willow Street
Roadway Improvements, First Avenue Roadway Repairs, and Miscellaneous Road Repairs
Capital Projects.
Nelson Engineering has been developing the construction documents for these projects and
they are nearing completion. The North Willow project extends from the intersection with
Granite Pointe St. to just beyond the Forestry Service lot adjacent to Airport Operations. The
First Avenue project repairs are taking place between the intersections of North Spruce and
Birch St. The Miscellaneous Road Repairs project sites include the intersections of Haller and
Fourth Avenue, Watergate and Pirate Lane, Watergate and Schooner Circle, Watergate and Set
Net Drive, VIP Drive and Set Net Drive, VIP Drive and Dollar Drive, Eagle Rock Drive and Tern
Place, Eagle Rock Drive and Sandpiper Lane, and Silver Salmon and King Salmon Drive.
The Lilac Street project will continue to move forward with new funding being provided with the
adoption of the FY2024 budget, which will provide $100,000 to allow design and survey efforts
to begin later this summer. The existing funding within the project will be reallocated with
$160,000 towards the North Willow St. project, $100,000 towards First Avenue, and $133,000
toward the Miscellaneous Repairs.
Completion of these projects is in the best interest of the City. Council’s support is respectfully
requested.

THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager
FROM: Linda Mitchell, Planning Director
DATE: April 25, 2023
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2023-32 – Approving a Lease Using a Non-Standard
Lease Form on Airport Reserve Lands between the City of Kenai and
the Federal Aviation Administration for the Automated Flight Service
Station Facility and Satellite Communication Network Facilities on Lot
7A-1, FBO Subdivision No. 5.
The City initially received a request for a renewal of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
lease of the Automated Flight Service Station (AFSS). The FAA has leased the space for the
purpose of operating the AFSS and Satellite Communication Network (SACOM) facilities dating
back to 1983. Due to the delay of receiving a final approval of the non-standard lease form from
the FAA, a new lease is required.
The lease agreement is for a 3.44-acre parcel described as Lot 7A-1, FBO Subdivision No. 5
consisting of a 10,812 square foot building and a 729 square foot detached shop. The lease
agreement will commence on October 1, 2022 since the previous lease expired on September
30, 2022 and FAA has remained on the premise to continue their operation.
Pursuant to Kenai Municipal Code 21.10.060 Lease application review, notice of the lease
application was posted in the Peninsula Clarion and stated competing applications may be
submitted for the parcel within 30 days to the City. The 30-day window from publication ended on
July 16, 2022, no competing applications were submitted to the City.
The parcel is within the Airport Light Industrial (ALI) Zone. Pursuant to KMC 14.20.065, the
purpose of the ALI Zone is to protect the viability of the Kenai Municipal Airport as a significant
resource to the community by encouraging compatible land uses and reducing hazards that may
endanger the lives and property of the public and aviation users. The proposed aeronautical use
is a permitted and compatible use in the ALI Zone.
The Imagine Kenai 2030 Comprehensive Plan outlines goals, objectives, and action items for the
City, including the following pertaining to the Kenai Municipal Airport:
Page 42
Page 2 of 2
Objective T- 1: Support future development near or adjacent to the airport when such
development is in alignment with the Kenai Municipal Airport's primary mission, "To be the
commercial air transportation gateway to the Kenai Peninsula Borough and Cook Inlet."
The continued use complies with the Imagine Kenai 2030 Comprehensive Plan by supporting
development on lease lots with development that is in alignment with the Kenai Municipal Airport
Master Plan.

scope of his office or employment under circumstances where a private person would be liable in
accordance with the law of the place where the act or omission occurred. The foregoing shall not be
deemed to extend the Government's liability beyond that existing under the Act at the time of such
act or omission or to preclude the Government from using any defense available in law or equity.
29. Compliance with Applicable Laws (09/2021) 6.3.31 The Lessor shall comply with all federal, state

that this contract is subject and subordinate to any and all recorded mortgages, deeds of trust and
other liens now or hereafter existing or imposed upon the premises, and to any renewal, modification

that no further instrument shall be required to effect the present or subsequent subordination of this

acceptable, execute such instruments as the contractor may reasonably request to evidence further
the subordination of this contract to any existing or future mortgage, deed of trust or other security
interest pertaining to the premises, and to any water, sewer or access easement necessary or desirable
to serve the premises or adjoining property owned in whole or in part by the contractor if such
easement does not interfere with the full enjoyment of any right granted the Government under this

OMB CONTROL NO. 2120-0595

security instrument shall operate to affect adversely any right of the Government under this contract

mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument to which this contract becomes subordinate, or
in a separate non-disturbance agreement, a provision to the foregoing effect. Contractor warrants that
the holders of all notes or other obligations secured by existing mortgages, deeds of trust or other
security instruments have consented to the provisions of this clause, and agrees to provide true
copies of all such consents to the RECO promptly upon demand.
C. In the event of any sale of the premises or any portion thereof by foreclosure of the lien of any
such mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument, or the giving of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure, the Government will be deemed to have attorned to any purchaser, purchasers,
transferee or transferees of the premises or any portion thereof and its or their successors and
assigns, and any such purchasers and transferees will be deemed to have assumed all obligations of
the contractor under this contract, so as to establish direct privity of estate and contract between
Government and such purchasers or transferees, with the same force, effect and relative priority in
time and right as if the contract had initially been entered into between such purchasers or
transferees and the Government; provided, further, that the RECO and such purchasers or transferees
shall, with reasonable promptness following any such sale or deed delivery in lieu of foreclosure,
execute all such revisions to this contract, or other writings, as shall be necessary to document the
foregoing relationship.
D. None of the foregoing provisions may be deemed or construed to imply a waiver of the
Government's rights as a sovereign.
32. Notification of Change in Ownership or Control of Land (09/2021) 6.3.34 If the Contractor sells,
dies or becomes incapacitated, or otherwise conveys to another party or parties any interest in the
aforesaid land, rights of way thereto, and any areas affecting the premises, the Government shall be
notified in writing, of any such transfer or conveyance within 30 calendar days after completion of
the change in property rights. Concurrent with the written notification, the Contractor or
Contractor’s heirs, representatives, assignees, or trustees shall provide the Government copies of the
associated legal document(s) (acceptable to local authorities) for transferring and/or conveying the
property rights.
33. Change of Ownership/Novation (09/2021) 6.3.34-1

name, the Lessor shall notify the Government within five days of the transfer of title/change of
name.
B. The Government and the Lessor must execute a Supplemental Agreement acknowledging the
transfer of title or name change.
C. If title to the Property is transferred, the Government, the original Lessor (Transferor), and the
new owner or assignee (Transferee) shall execute a Novation Agreement providing for the transfer
of Transferor's rights and obligations under the Lease to the Transferee. When executed on behalf of
the Government, a Novation Agreement will be made part of the Lease via Supplemental
Agreement.
D. The RECO may request additional information (e.g., copy of the deed, bill of sale, certificate of
merger, contract, court decree, articles of incorporation, operation agreement, partnership certificate
of good standing, etc.) from the Transferor or Transferee to verify the parties' representations
Page 56

Federal Aviation Administration
Standard Space Lease, 04/2022
OMB CONTROL NO. 2120-0595
regarding the transfer.
E. If the RECO determines that recognizing the Transferee as the Lessor will not be in the
Government's interest, the Transferor shall remain fully liable to the Government for the Transferee's
performance of obligations under the Lease, notwithstanding the transfer. Under no condition shall
the Government be obligated to release the Transferor of obligations prior to (a) the rent
commencement date; and (b) any amounts due and owing to the Government under the Lease that
have been paid in full or completely set off against the rental payments due under the Lease.
F. As a condition for being recognized as the Lessor and entitlement to receiving rent, the Transferee
must register in the System for Award Management (SAM) for purposes of “All Awards”, and
complete all required representations and certifications within SAM and the “Representation
Regarding Certain Telecommunications and Video Surveillance Services or Equipment” in this
contract.
G. If title to the Property is transferred, rent shall continue to be paid to the original Lessor, subject
to the Government's rights as provided for in this Lease. The Government's obligation to pay rent to
the Transferee shall commence on the effective date of the Lease Amendment incorporating the
Novation Agreement. The Lease Amendment will not be issued until the Government has received
all information reasonably required by the RECO, the Government has determined that recognizing
the Transferee as the Lessor is in the Government's interest (which determination will be prompt and
not unreasonably withheld), and the Transferee has met all conditions specified in sub-paragraph F.
34. Sublease (09/2021) 6.3.35 (MODIFIED) The Government may sublease the space covered under
this Lease to another agency or private party, with the City’s consent. In subleasing this space to
another party, the Government is not relieved from its responsibilities under the terms of this Lease
unless otherwise agreed upon with the Lessor.
35. Integrated Agreement (09/2021) 6.3.36 This Contract, upon execution, contains the entire
agreement of the parties, and no prior written or oral agreement, express or implied shall be
admissible to contradict the provisions of this Contract.
36. Unauthorized Negotiating (09/2021) 6.3.37 In no event shall the Contractor enter into
negotiations concerning the premises with anyone other than the RECO or his/her designee.
37. Inspection of Leased Premises (09/2021) 6.3.38 To ensure a safe and healthy work environment for
government employees, agents, and assigns, and to ensure the Contractor’s performance under this
contract, the Government at all times and places during the term of the contract has the right to:
A. inspect the leased premises and all other areas of the building to which access is necessary,
B. test all performance requirements under the contract, and
C. perform any necessary sampling and evaluation to ensure contract compliance.
If inspection reveals a contractual non-conformance, then the Government may require the
Contractor to perform in accordance with the contract requirements at no increase in contract amount
or the Government, in its sole discretion, may perform the work itself in accordance with the
“Failure in Performance” clause of this Contract.
The presence or absence of a government inspection does not relieve the Contractor from any
contract requirement, nor is the inspector authorized to change any term or condition of the contract
without the RECO’s written authorization.

39. System for Award Management - Real Property (04/2022) 6.4.1-1
(a) Definitions. As used in this clause:
"Registered in the SAM database" means that the Contractor has entered all mandatory information,
including the Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) or the Electronic Funds Transfer indicator, into the
SAM database.
"System for Award Management (SAM) Database" means the primary Government repository for
Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.
“Unique Entity Identifier (UEI)” (also known as the Unique Entity ID) means a number or other
identifier used to identify a specific commercial, nonprofit, or Government entity. See
www.sam.gov for the designated entity for establishing Unique Entity Identifiers.
“Electronic Funds Transfer indicator” means a 4-characher suffix to the Unique Entity Identifier.
This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish
additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the
same parent concern.
“Contractor” is synonymous with “Offeror” “Lessor” or “Grantor” for real property leases,
easements, or other contracts.
(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the Contractor acknowledges the requirement that
a prospective awardee will be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance,
Page 59
13
Federal Aviation Administration
Standard Space Lease, 04/2022
OMB CONTROL NO. 2120-0595
and through final payment of any contract.
(2) The Contractor must enter, in the space below, the contractor's UEI that identifies the
Contractor's name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The UEI will be used by the RECO to
verify that the Contractor is registered in the SAM database.
UEI: __________________________
(c) If the Contractor does not have a UEI, it should contact www.sam.gov directly to obtain one.
The Contractor should be prepared to provide the following information:
(1) Company* legal business name.
(2) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.
(3) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and Zip Code.
(4) Company Mailing Address, City, State and Zip Code (if separate from physical).

(6) Date the company was started.
(7) Number of employees at your location.
(8) Chief executive officer/key manager.
(9) Line of business (industry).
(10) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship within your entity).
* Individual (non-corporate) lessors/grantors of real property that are not normally in the business of
leasing real property should consider leasing to the Government as a separate business (usually a
sole proprietorship) then provide the pertinent ownership information as a sole proprietor when
providing this information to www.sam.gov.
(d) If the offeror does not become registered in the SAM database in the time prescribed by the
RECO, the RECO may proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered offeror.
(e) Processing time should be taken into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not
registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of the solicitation.
(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM
database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete
data. To remain registered in the SAM database after initial registration, the Contractor is required to
review and update, on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates, its
information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating
information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute
for a properly executed contractual document.
(g)(1)(i)If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, “doing business as” name, or division
name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the
contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name
agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance, the Contractor must provide the responsible RECO a
minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to:
(A) Change the name in the SAM database;
(B) Comply with the requirements of AMS regarding novation and change-of-name agreements; and
(C) Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the RECO. The Contractor must
Page 60
14
Federal Aviation Administration
Standard Space Lease, 04/2022
OMB CONTROL NO. 2120-0595
provide the RECO notification and sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name
and then execute the appropriate supplemental agreement provided by the RECO to document the
name change.
(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or
fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a
properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement/supplemental agreement, the SAM
information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will
be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment"
paragraph of the Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer- System for Award Management clause of
this contract.
(2) The Contractor must not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as
appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims.
Assignees must be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the
Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate
recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the
meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer-
System for Award Management clause of this contract.
(h) Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the
internet at http://www.sam.gov or by calling 866-606-8220.

easements unless the FAA has granted a waiver from the use of SAM. Must be used in conjunction
with 6.4.2-1 Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer- System for Award Management. NOTE: If the
FAA has granted a waiver from the use of SAM, use clause 6.4.1 "System for Award Management
(SAM Waiver)" and REMOVE this clause.
40. Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer- System for Award Management (09/2021) 6.4.2-1
A. Method of payment.
i. Unless waived by the RECO, all payments by the Government under this contract will be made by
electronic funds transfer (EFT), except as provided in paragraph (A)(ii) of this clause. As used in this
clause, the term "EFT" refers to the funds transfer and may also include the payment information
transfer.
ii. In the event the Government is unable to release one or more payments by EFT, the Contractor
agrees to either:
a. Accept payment by check or some other mutually agreeable method of payment; or
b. Request the Government to extend the payment due date until such time as the Government can
make payment by EFT (but see paragraph (D) of this clause).
B. Contractor's EFT information. The Government will make payment to the Contractor using the
EFT information contained in the System for Award Management (SAM) database. In the event that
the EFT information changes, the Contractor must be responsible for providing the updated
information to the SAM database.
C. Mechanisms for EFT payment. The Government may make payment by EFT through either the
Automated Clearing House (ACH) network, subject to the rules of the National Automated Clearing
House Association, or the Fedwire Transfer System. The rules governing Federal payments through
the ACH are contained in 31 CFR Part 210.
Page 61

Federal Aviation Administration
Standard Space Lease, 04/2022
OMB CONTROL NO. 2120-0595
D. Suspension of payment. If the Contractor's EFT information in the SAM database is incorrect,
then the Government need not make payment to the Contractor under this contract until correct EFT
information is entered into the SAM database; and any invoice or contract financing request will be
deemed not to be a proper invoice for the purpose of prompt payment under this contract. The
prompt payment terms of the contract regarding notice of an improper invoice and delays in accrual
of interest penalties apply.
E. Liability for uncompleted or erroneous transfers.
i. If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the Government used the Contractor's EFT
information incorrectly, the Government remains responsible for
a. Making a correct payment;
b. Paying any prompt payment penalty due; and
c. Recovering any erroneously directed funds.
ii. If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the Contractor's EFT information was
incorrect, or was revised within 30 days of Government release of the EFT payment transaction
instruction to the Federal Reserve System, and
a. If the funds are no longer under the control of the payment office, the Government is deemed to
have made payment and the Contractor is responsible for recovery of any erroneously directed
funds; or
b. If the funds remain under the control of the payment office, the Government will not make
payment, and the provisions of paragraph (D) of this clause will apply.
F. EFT and prompt payment. A payment will be deemed to have been made in a timely manner in
accordance with the prompt payment terms of this contract if, in the EFT payment transaction
instruction released to the Federal Reserve System, the date specified for settlement of the payment
is on or before the prompt payment due date, provided the specified payment date is a valid date
under the rules of the Federal Reserve System.
G. EFT and assignment of claims. If the Contractor assigns the proceeds of this contract as provided
for in the assignment of claims terms of this contract, the Contractor must require as a condition of
any such assignment, that the assignee must register separately in the SAM database and will be paid
by EFT in accordance with the terms of this clause. Notwithstanding any other requirement of this
contract, payment to an ultimate recipient other than the Contractor, or a financial institution
properly recognized under an assignment of claims, is not permitted. In all respects, the requirements
of this clause will apply to the assignee as if it were the Contractor. EFT information that shows the
ultimate recipient of the transfer to be other than the Contractor, in the absence of a proper
assignment of claims acceptable to the Government, is incorrect EFT information within the
meaning of paragraph (d) of this clause.
H. Liability for change of EFT information by financial agent. The Government is not liable for
errors resulting from changes to EFT information made by the Contractor's financial agent.
I. Payment information. The payment or disbursing office will forward to the Contractor available
payment information that is suitable for transmission as of the date of release of the EFT instruction
to the Federal Reserve System. The Government may request the Contractor to designate a desired
format and method(s) for delivery of payment information from a list of formats and methods the
payment office is capable of executing. However, the Government does not guarantee that any
particular format or method of delivery is available at any particular payment office and retains the
latitude to use the format and delivery method most convenient to the Government. If the
Government makes payment by check in accordance with paragraph (A) of this clause, the
Page 62
16
Federal Aviation Administration
Standard Space Lease, 04/2022
OMB CONTROL NO. 2120-0595
Government will mail the payment information to the remittance address contained in the SAM
database.
41. Work Performance (09/2021) 6.5.2 All work in performance of this Lease shall be done by skilled
workers or mechanics and shall be acceptable to the RECO. The RECO retains the right to reject the
Lessor’s workers 1) if such are either unlicensed, unskilled, or otherwise incompetent, or 2) if such
have demonstrated unacceptable performance in connection with work carried out in conjunction
with this Lease. In the event of such rejection, the Lessor shall offer substitute/replacement workers,
subject to the approval of the RECO.
42. Responsibility of the Lessor and Lessor's Architect/Engineer (09/2021) 6.5.3

samples, and completed base building and tenant improvement construction. The Government shall
work closely with the Lessor, in an integrated manner, to identify potential design flaws, to minimize
costly misdirection of effort, and to assist the Lessor in its effort to monitor whether such design and
construction comply with applicable laws and satisfy all lease requirements.
C. Neither the Government’s review, approval or acceptance of, nor payment through rent of the
services required under this lease, shall be construed to operate as a waiver of any rights under this
Lease or of any cause of action arising out of the performance of this Lease, and the Lessor shall be
and remain liable to the Government in accordance with applicable law for all damages to the
Government caused by the Lessor’s negligent performance of any of the services required under this
Lease.
D. Design and construction and performance information is contained throughout several of the
solicitation documents which shall comprise a resulting lease. The Lessor shall provide to space
planners, architects, engineers, construction contractors, etc., all design and performance information

Drawings. Reliance upon one of these documents to the exclusion of any other may result in an
incomplete understanding of the scope of the work to be performed and/or services to be provided.

on January 1, 2026 with an option to renew for an additional term of 10 years and an additional
option to renew for an additional term of 20 years beginning July 1, 2036.
Mr. Griffin provided a list of website links to green fees for other Southcentral Alaska courses that

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager
FROM: Scott Curtin, Public Works Director
DATE: April 24, 2023
SUBJECT: Purchase Order – Homer Electric Association
The purpose of this memo is to request Council’s approval to issue a Purchase Order to Homer
Electric Association in the amount of $42,303 for Electric Primary and Secondary Service
modifications for the Kenai Municipal Airport Sand Storage Facility project. This project has been
delayed due to COVID and supply chain issues, however, work is expected to finally be underway
starting May1st.
This work involves replacement of an existing ground mounted transformer and rerouting of
electrical services for the new Sand Storage Building, existing Urea Building, and the adjacent
Forestry Services. This work is necessary due to the location of the existing utilities being within
the footprint of the new facility.
The easements for this work were previously approved by Council through an Action Approval at
the October 26, 2021 council meeting. Staff has also already paid a $500 deposit with the
application submittal so the overall total proposed estimated cost for the work is $42,803. The
City will be billed actual costs from HEA at the completion of the work. All of the costs associated
with this work are eligible for funding reimbursement through the Federal Aviation Administration
grant in support of the Sand Storage Facility project.
The Utility work is anticipated to take place before June 30th. Council’s approval is respectfully
requested.

☐ Transfer of Ownership Application ☒ Transfer of Controlling Interest
AMCO has received a complete application for a marijuana establishment within your jurisdiction. This
notice is required under 3 AAC 306.045(c)(2). Application documents will be sent to you separately via
ZendTo.
To protest the approval of this application pursuant to 3 AAC 306.060, you must furnish the director and
the applicant with a clear and concise written statement of reasons for the protest within 60 days of the
date of this notice, and provide AMCO proof of service of the protest upon the applicant. If the protest is
a “conditional protest” as defined in 3 AAC 306.060(d)(2) and the application otherwise meets all the
criteria set forth by the regulations, the Marijuana Control Board may approve the transfer, but require
Page 106
the applicant to show to the board’s satisfaction that the requirements of the local government have
been met before the director issues the license.
3 AAC 306.010, 3 AAC 306.080, and 3 AAC 306.250 provide that the board will deny an application for a
marijuana establishment license if the board finds that the license is prohibited under AS 17.38 as a
result of an ordinance or election conducted under AS 17.38 and 3 AAC 306.200, or when a local
government protests an application on the grounds that the proposed licensed premises are located in a
place within the local government where a local zoning ordinance prohibits the marijuana
establishment, unless the local government has approved a variance from the local ordinance.
Sincerely,
Joan Wilson, Director

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager
FROM: Tony Prior, Fire Chief
DATE: April 24, 2023
SUBJECT: Ordinance 3351-2023 Healthy & Equitable Communities Grant
Administration applied for round 2 of the Healthy and Equitable Communities Grant from the State
of Alaska, Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS), Division of Public Health (DPH),
that provides funding for communities to improve infrastructure that will build and promote living
healthy and future pandemic prevention. Funding from this Healthy and Equitable Communities
grant must have an emphasis on high risk, underserved population groups. The grant notification
specified a minimum of three (3) years of funding support and we are addressing round two (2)
of the program in this memo.
Funding for the program is based on population of each community within Alaska and is calculated
by the Alaska Health Equity Index. The City of Kenai is eligible for a municipal allocation of
$134,331.00 from the State.
A Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) will need to be executed between DPH and the City to meet
requirements of the grant.
The City has been approved to use the original projects that were approved in round 1 of the grant
application and one of the priorities on the list was the refinishing of the Recreation Center floors.
This project truly has the potential to impact all KPB residents. Once the roof is completed, it will
no longer pose a risk to the floor and that was the reason it was not the number 1 project in round
1. Administration is recommending to move forward with this project and then continue with the
other projects on the list with the additional funds left over.
Additional approved projects are listed below from our original grant submission.
Health and Equitable Communities MOA (Additional Approved Projects)
If funds remain after completing the initial project listed in the application, funds will go towards
one of the following pre-approved projects:
Municipal Park Boardwalk: This project supports category number 4 and would allow anyone
the opportunity to get out and walk on trails in the city. This project constructs an engineered
Page 126
Page 2 of 2
elevated boardwalk that connects the park to an existing trail that meanders through a wooded
area used throughout the year and heavily during dip net season as it travels down to the North
Beach at the mouth of the Kenai River.
Nordic Trail Lighting: This project also supports category number 4 by promoting the outdoor
use of an existing winter cross country ski trail and improving it so that citizens can use it at any
hour they chose. This project is designed in multiple phases and the first phase would focus on
lighting the trail around the central bowl area near the driving range and clubhouse at the Kenai
Municipal Golf Course.
The following are projects that have been identified that are not in our current capital projects,
mostly because they are under the dollar amount required to be a capital project, or they fit within
another category for this funding.
Mobile Handwash and Restroom Trailers: This project would support categories 1 and 3 by
allowing the City to mobilize a trailer to events where larger groups of people congregate. We
know the key to prevention is practicing good hygiene. Trailers such as these have been used by
FEMA and Incident Management Teams across the nations for all sizes of incidents. We would
promote health and wellness by giving citizens a sanitary place to practice good hygiene at events
around the City.
Videography Equipment and City of Kenai Website: This equipment would support categories
3 and 4 by placing cameras and equipment at sites that are designed for activities promoting a
healthy lifestyle. Individuals would be able to go to the City’s website/app and see available sites
with current and past usage of the trails/playground/etc.
Emergency Preparedness Kits: These kits support categories 1 and 3 by supplying seniors over
the age of 60 with items needed in the event of an emergency. This is a project our Senior Center
has already been a part of, and quickly ran out of kits as the demand was high and funding was
not available to fulfill the overall need. The kits include:
Training and exercise for updated Emergency Operations Plan: This would support
categories 1 and 3 by providing training to individuals within the City of Kenai’s Emergency
Operation Plan (EOP), to prepare them to respond and mitigate future emergencies such as the
COVID-19 pandemic. We are currently updating our EOP and following the update, individuals
will need position specific training to effectively respond to and deal with larger emergencies. We
would hire contractors to conduct ICS training for those within the plan and following the training,
conduct an exercise to assess operations and critique for changes/updates to our newly added
section of Pandemic Response.
We thank you for your consideration of this ordinance and we respectfully request your approval.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
FROM: Scott Curtin, Public Works Director
THROUGH: Terry Eubank, City Manager
DATE: April 27, 2023
SUBJECT: Discussion Item – Status and Path Forward for Wildwood Drive
Rehabilitation Project
The purpose of this memo is to discuss the status and potential paths forward for the Wildwood
Drive Rehabilitation Project.
The Council has allocated funds in the amount of $329,000 for this project through the passage
of Resolution 2021-26. The funds were originally appropriated in FY19 and FY20 budgets for
projects yet to be identified. The Wildwood Drive Rehabilitation Project was funded because of
the continued deterioration of the 50-plus-year-old roadway, identified as in a failed condition in
the City’s 2009 Roadway Improvement Survey conducted by Nelson Engineering, which has
deteriorated since then, and is considered by many as the worst road in Kenai. Approximately
$40,000 of these funds were utilized to acquire engineering services for construction documents
with the intent of bidding in early summer, with the remaining funds to be used for construction.
Based on a construction cost estimate of $940,000, it has been determined that additional funding
is necessary to construct this project in 2023. The design includes constructing approximately
2,300 linear feet of roadway from the Kenai Spur Highway to near the entrance of the Wildwood
Correctional Complex, a State of Alaska Department of Corrections institution. As service to
Wildwood Correction Complex is the primary use of this road, the City believes the State of Alaska
should partner with the City and contribute to the project. The project was submitted as the City’s
number one priority request for consideration as part of the State’s 2023 Capital Budget through
the Commerce, Community and Economic Development Grants to Municipalities. Resolution
2023-23 was also adopted requesting funding support from the State of Alaska.
Based on the latest information available regarding the State’s capital budget, it appears unlikely
that infrastructure and maintenance projects without federal funding match opportunities will be
included in the capital budget, and it is necessary for Administration to request additional guidance
from the Council on how to proceed in the absence of the requested State funding support.
Administration has considered the following three options:
Page 142
1. Do nothing and defer an upgrade to the road until such time as grant funding allows the
City to construct the project.
2. Request a supplemental appropriation of City funds in the amount of approximately
$700,000 to bid and construct the project in 2023.
3. In the absence of necessary funding to construct the project, reduce the scope of the
project to return the road to a gravel state as a cost-effective alternative to address the
deteriorating asphalt surface. The project’s current budget is expected to be sufficient for
this option.
While gravel surfaces may be considered a step backward, in this case, no other options are
available to address the deteriorated surface of Wildwood Drive that do not require additional
funding.
Council’s discussion of these options will provide the Administration with direction for the project
and is appreciated.

member and Chair of the PROPS Committee. We thank all of the public member volunteers for their
continued dedication to the mission of CIRCAC and applaud them for the time, efforts and expertise the
give the organization.
The Council also certified annual elections, welcoming back to the Board for a three -year term Mr.
Michael Opheim, representing Alaska Native Groups and Mr. Deric Marcorelle, representing
