ITEM 7: NEW BUSINESS Discussion -- Float Plane Basin Fuel Tanks The Commission referred to a memorandum included in the packet noting the desire of some tenants of the basin to store fuel on site. Larry Porter, 310 Rogers Road, Kenai -- Porter stated he believed the allowing of stored fuel, from 500 to 1,000 gallons, will attract people to use of the facility; buying in bulk will lower the cost of fuel; and, with the city eliminating tax (on the airport), it will probably generate more interest. Comments from discussion of the issue included' · Selling fuel in blocks of 500 gallons would encourage everyone to come to Kenai. · Selling the fuel ten cents or so over cost was suggested. · Concern was expressed the desire would not be to having everyone flying over from Soldotna to purchase cheap fuel. After discussion, the members recommended to promote the use of the Float Plane Basin by offering fuel at an incentive rate and offering further incentive to airport tenants in the form of a rebate at season end. Exact rates to be determined by the Airport Manager and Finance Director. Additionally, investigate a new pump/computers for future tier system to reward tenants/block fuel purchasers. MOTION' Commissioner Haralson MOVED to adopt the above recommendation and Commissioner Bielefeld SECONDED the motion. There were no objections. ORDERED.
