CHAIR HENRY dLl\AliL1,JTEDT, ITEM 1: CALL TO ORDER & ROLL CALL Chairman Knackstedt called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. The roil was taken as follows: Present: Knackstedt, Haralson, Van Zee, Bielefeld, Kleidon Absent: Copple, Holloway = Others Present: Airport Manager Cronkhite, Councilwoman Swarner ,and Contract Secretary Kellerby ITEM 2: AGENDA APPROVAL MOTION: Commissioner Van Zee MOVED to approve the agenda as presented with the addition to Item 5: Old Business- 5-b.

ITEM 4: PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD -None ITEM 5: OLD BUSINESS 5-a. Discussion -- Airport Terminal Carpet Selection Recommendation. Councilwoman Swarner reported the airport carpet selection committee met on September 7 and agreed on the new flooring to be used at the airport. She and Cronkhite presented a terminal layout of the carpet and samples of the materials to be used to the Airport Commission. It was noted, one of the materials to be used in high traffic areas was made of recycled rubber tires and looked like granite. Another was carpet squares which do not stain and are supposed to last 15 years. They also presented a rubber grating material that would be used at the entrances that would cut down on the snow and dirt on shoes coming into the terminal. They also showed samples of the seating they chose for the waiting area. They noted, $30,000 had been budgeted for this project, but Cronkhite reported the cost estimate for the materials presented was $145,000. She added, because the life of the materials was three to four times greater than the old carpet and throw rugs wouldn't be needed (currently used at an approximate cost of $6,000 a year), they would be saving money in the long run. She also noted she had budgeted money for new terminal lighting which could be moved to this project and do the lighting later. Cronkhite and Swarner added, a lot of reseazch on these materials was done in regard to their durability and maintenance performance. MOTION: Commissioner Hazalson MOVED to submit to the City Council for their approval the Commission's recommendation to approve the carpet selection committee's proposal with the provision that they continue negotiations for the-best price for the product and installment and Commissioner Bielefeld SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. SO ORDERED. 5-b. Discussion -- Special Use Permit -Calling Card Machine Item added at the beginning of the meeting. Cronkhite referred to information distributed at the beginning of the meeting and noted Alaska Call Connection wanted to operate and maintain a prepaid calling card machine in the Kenai airport. Their bid was for 25% of the monthly gross receipts and they proposed to install a new machine and lower the rates for customers to under eight cents per minute. She added, Administration would like to issue the Special Use Permit as an exclusive agreement. MOTION: Commissioner Bielefeld MOVED to approve issuing the Alaska Call Connection a Special Use Permit as an exciusive agreement as presented to be submitted to City Council for their approval and Commissioner Kleidon SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. SO ORDERED. ITEM 6: 6-a. Discussion: Update to Noise Abatement Procedures Cronkhite reported on the draft Noise Abatement Procedures included in the packet. She noted revisions to this policy were written assuming a right traffic pattern. She asked for the Commission's approval on this as an informal policy. The Commission gave their unanimous consent. 6-b. Discussion: Cook dnlet Lions Club -Snow Machine Races KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 14, 2000 PAGE 2 This item was added to the agenda at the beginning of the meeting. Richard Dominick with the Cook Inlet Lions Club referred to information distributed at the beginning of the meeting and explained the Club would like the Commission's approval for the use of the floatplane basin for several weekends during the winter for Cook Inlet Lions Snow Machine Drag Races. He noted benefits the City would realize from this, discussed safety and security issues, and noted committees working on other areas of concern. Also included in their information was their Snow Machine Drag Racing Policy Manual. Cronkhite noted the airport would require someone with proper credentials to insure the ice on the float basin was safe for this endeavor. The Commission asked many questions as to ambulance service, snow removal, where the profits were to be used, etc. MOTION: Commissioner Haralson MOVED to approve the Cook inlet Lions Club proposal for snow machine races on the floatplane basin as presented to be submitted to City Council for their approval and Commissioner Van Zee SECONDED the motion.

Willow Kenai, AK 996(1 Dear Ms. Cronkhite; [t has been brought to my attention that the area commonly called "Airport Gift Shop" is being vacated. [ would like to aquire that area for the relocation of my business "Alaska's Best Travel". This would allow me to consolidate the two office's I presently am (easing into the one space, provide a waiting area for my clients that does not interfere with airline passengers boarding lines and in general be able to expand the service and worker areas to meet the needs of my company. [ am willing to pay the present rental rate for the area and would like to have the lease be effective as of 1 November, 2000. 1 would like access to the area from October 15 , as there wilt be a need to increase the number of electrical outlets, provide computer cable, measure for additional work stations, provide security for safe's and airline tickets, and resurface interior walls. I further suggest that the area I am currently renting, located beside Payless Car Rental, be designated as the new 'Gift Shop". This area is extremely convenient for the airline passengers, and although it does not have the same amount of squaze footage I do believe that the increased visibility and accessibility would do a great deal to improve the viability of a gift shop in the airport. 1 would also suggest that the "grey board" presently located located on the walls of the present gift shop, be placed on the walls of the "new gift shop". The grey board was designed to hold brackets and sheifing and would be most beneficial to a gift shop. Please advise me at your soonest what steps I must complete to acquire the rental space and to be released from the two conditionaP leases [presently have.
