This report is intended to provide information on the PERS unfunded liability, which is an issue for the State of Alaska and most Alaskan municipalities and school districts. Under funding of pensions is also a national issue for both public and private corporations. The City of Kenai has always paid the PERS rate that was billed by the State of Alaska. The rate has ranged from zero to over 13%. Until recently, according to the State's actuary, the City had more assets than were required to fund our retirement system liability, so we paid a reduced rate in recognition of the funding surplus. Unfortunatety, due to the inaccuracy of the actuarial projections, the funding surplus we thought we had was not real. We actually should have been paying a higher rate. The City would have paid the PERS ~5.6 million more since I980 if we would have paid at the consolidated rate, which is basically the PERS average rate using data from all of the employers in the system. The actuary uses assumptions for numerous factors to pro}ect the cash needs of the retirement system forty years into the future. It obviously is not a simple matter to produce accurate forecasts over that time span. The assumptions for health cost were significantly understated and the mortality table being used was not properly updated to reflect cunent normal life spans. When these and other assumptions were corrected in the FY 2002 actuarial valuation, the liabilities of the system were dramatically increased. Negative investment retums hit the books at the same time which affected the assets available. The bottom line is that the City went from a funding surplus in FY 2001 to an $11,565,000 unfunded liability in 3 years. The Alaska Retirement Management Board (ARMB), which I am a member of, will make a report to the legislature in January 2006 that will include short and long term strategies for Mayor and Council, PERS Liabflity Repott. 12/30/OS addressing the problem. The Statewide unfunded liabiliCy is about $6 billion for both PERS and TR3. There will not be a painiess fix for a problem of this magnitude. We cannot cut our way out because the benetits have been earned and guaranteed by the constitution, and we cannot invest our way out. The systems are short of money and putting more money in is the only clear answer to balancing assets to liabilities. The City of Kenai will face PERS rates of around 30% of payroil for the next 25 - 30 years unless the system receives more money than is anticipated or the goal of being fully funded is abandoned. According to the FY 2004 actuarial report, Kenai should be paying 26.17% in FY2006, but we are paying only 13.67% including the 5% contribution the State made. In FY 2007 the actuarially required rate is 29.81%, but we ue scheduled to only pay 18.67%. Clearly, our liability wiil grow if we pay significantly less than the actuarially required amount. The rate of interest on the unfunded liability is 8.25%. At the end of FY2005 I expect our unfunded liability to grow by $1 million from the interest on the `debY and about $600,000 due to not paying the actuarially required rate. This will cause our actuarially required rate to increase. We should have the actual numbers for 2005 before June 3Q 2006. Some communities have contributed more money than the State has billed. These communities apparently had funds available and considered the excess contribution a good investment. There aze not many municipalities that have investments returning 8.25% and paying down the PERS liability can save a lot of money in the long run. The City of Kenai may wish to contribute additional funds to PERS. This could be done by taking money from fund balance, by increasing taxes, and/or by establishing a policy of putting all budget surpluses toward paying off this liability. The benefit of doing this is that the impacts of 30% or higher PERS rates will likely be mitigated. However, even with significant contributions it will be a very long time before our PERS rate is less than 13% again. If the debt could be paid down such that the rate is about 20%, it could mean a savings of $600,000 or more annually. SB 141, which passed last session, created a 4`h tier retirement plan. After July 1, 2006 new employees will be enrolled in a plan that is called a defined contribution plan (similar to a 401 K plan), although it does have sorne defined benefit components. The City will be contributing about 10% of payroll, and employees wili contribute 8%. At retirement the member will have the amount of money actually in the plan rather than a guaranteed pension amount. Over time, as tier 4 employees replace tier 1,2 and 3 employees, the City PERS rate will decline. However the reduction is not dramatic because part of the PERS rate is paying off the unfunded liability. In conclusion, we need to be aware of the impact the PERS liability could have on the State of Alaska and particulaziy Kenai. 'I'his matter should get significant attention this legislative session. The large expected budget surplus may encourage decision makers to pay down some of the PERS/TRS liability. It is certainly worthy of serious consideration.

ITEM C: UNSCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENTS C-1. Jim Butler -- Council requested he hold his comments until Item H-11. C-2. Ronald J. Johnson - Johnson commented on Item H-6, a lease applicaYion d~b~a Kenai Mini Storage 8~ Rentals, Inc.~Lot 3, Block 5, Cook Inlet Industrial Air Park. Johnson's comments included: • A request of councii to deny his application and have the Planning & Zoning Commission reconsider it because the lease proposal was not acceptable to him. • The property for which he submitted a lease application is located alongside Kenai Mini Storage which he currently owns and his intention is to expand the storage operation. • Though the Airport Suppiemental Plan had not yet been adopted, he leazned he is to comply with it and the property is located within the boundary of the new Airport Supplemental Plan and would be restricted to lease only (the current Plan allows the property to be sold). • His plan included piacing $100,000 to $125,000 of improvements on the property. • The Airport Commission recommended the lease application, but with only a lease of 12'/2 years. • Improving the property and not being able to purchase the property did not make sense to hun. • Requested council to consider the Plan in progress and how it relates to the piece of property he currently owns and the property adjacent to the property he wants to lease; they are fee simple properties; if the city wants to take them back and put them under the purview of the airport, the properties would probably have to be purchased. • He wouid not have purchased the property he currently owns if he had known the city would not want to sell the subject property. • Believes the limitations placed on the lease would diminish the value of the property he currently owns because he would not be able to expand it. • dt seemed illogical to have the half-acre subject property be sitting empty for another 30-40 yeazs waiting for the Plan that may or may not be approved, etc. • Suggested failing or modifying the lease.

Ordinance No. 2136-2005 -- Authorizing the Sale of Four (4) Parcels of Land to The Conservation Flznd for Fair Mazket Value and Placing Certain Conditions on the Sale. MOTION: Councii Member Swarner MOVED for adoption of Ordinance No. 2136-2005 and Council Member Boyle SECONDED the motion. There were no public comments. Council Member Moore stated his opposition to the sale because the property is riverfront, the city has been good stewards of the property, and the property could be needed as a tool for future projects. Ross agreed. KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 21, 2005 PAGE 4 Attorney Graves reported he had checked on the dock access road transaction and found the paperwork was being held at the title company while a re-platting process was taking place. He added, if the ordinance would be passed, administration's intention was to do both transactions simultaneously, in order to ensure both transactions take place. MOTION TO AMEND: Council Member Moore MOVED to amend the ordinance by adding a last whereas to state: "Whereas, this transfer to The Conservation F`und is contingent on the transfer of the City Boat Launch property." Council Member Ross SECONDED the motion. VOTE ON AMENDMENT: *Student Representative Krusen: Absent Massie Yes Ross ~ Yes Mollo Yes Bo le Yes Porter j Yes Moore Yes Swarner Yes ~ MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. MOTYON TO AMEND: Council Member Moore MOVED to amend the second to the last whereas, where it states "...the deed of reconveyance will stipulate the property may not be conveyed to the State of Aiaska..." insert the words "or related organization thereof." Council Member Swarner SECONDED the motion. Moore explained, it had been brought to his attention any organization ocvning the property could convey it to the Kenai River Speciai Management Area (KRSMA) and the intention of his amendrnent was to prohibit the property to be conveyed to KRSMA. He added, it was his intention for the property to remain with The Conservation Fund in perpetuity. City Attorney Graves explained, the city could require the property be held by the Kachemak Bay Trust Fund and if and attempt is made to convey it to another entity, the property would revert automatically back to the city. Graves added, the KRSMA is a boundary set by the state and the boundary could be set anywhere through legislation; the city could not, by deed restriction, eliminate the Legislature's authority to set the boundary. Council Member Ross suggested, since the transaction was not ready for closing, the issue be postponed in order for Graves to work out the language. MOTEON TO POSTPONE: KENAS CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 21, 2005 PAGE 5 Council Member Ross MOVED to postpone the issue to the January 18, 2006 meeting and Council Member Moore SECONDED the motion.

Council Member Boyle SECONDED the motion. Kopp referred to information included in the packet and explained the issue was brought about due to a need for customer parking for several businesses along the airport taxiway; the Airport Commission reviewed properties that could be used for additional parking and recommended the two subject properties; administration determined it was in the city's best interest to reacquire the properties to allow leasing of marketable lots on the taxiway; and, administration contacted Mr. Snider and discussed the issue with him. Kopp added, it was his, Attorney Graves' and Finance Director Semmens strong recommendation to reacquire the properties as it wouid take only four to five years of leasing the space to recover the amounts owed by Baxter. VOTE: KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 21, 2005 PAGE 9 There were no objections. SO ORDERED. H-6. Approval -- Lease Application -- Ronald J.

Administration was directed to move forward as far as presenting cost information, etc. during the budget process. Interest was also expressed that a request for proposals be made if funds aze included in the budget for a branding program. H-8. Discussion -- "Exploring Kenai" Program. A brief discussion took place in which comments included: direction was needed whether to move forwazd with the city's involvement with the program; a March 30, 2006 notice of commitxnent was initially required by Paul Gray; funds could not be KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 21, 2005 PAGE 10 committed until budget adoption (June); and, Gray would start the program during the summer, but could move his commitment date to the end of June. Council stated no objections to moving forward as reflected by the discussion. H-9. Discussion -- Proposed Angler Drive L.I.D. -- Report of City Manager to Council. Kopp referred to a memorandum included in the packet noting the scope, improvements requested, and estimated cost of the Angler Drive proposed Local Improvement District. Kopp added, of the $720,000 estimated cost for the project, the city's match would be paid for through the legislative grant funds. Council stated no objections to moving forward with the project. H-10. Discussion -- Frontier Community Services Design Proposal. Kopp referred to memoranda included in the packet noting the amounts of property each project would require, the load on the water/sewer system, and that the water main in the area was a 1964 private project and later turned over to the city. He added, the citq had some concerns with regard to infrastructure upgrades which may be needed to handle the projects. Discussion followed between council, administration, representatives from Frontier Community Services (FCS) and Architect Bill HIuge. Comments included: • The only dedication made at this point was to the Senior Connection and though administration was requested to move forward with a possible donation to FCS, no agreement had been reached by councii to date. • Initial ingress/egress would be from Redoubt Avenue and it was anticipated the utilities would be brought in from Redoubt Avenue. • FCS was requested to show a 60' right-of-way along the westerly boundary for Fifth Street development. • Tapping into the pipe that serves Mommsen Subdivision is e~cpected. • Concern was expressed the ufllity system in the area is oid and not in good shape; the rest of the community will be supporting the probable upgrade of the system, especially since the developers are non-profit organizations; bids would probably be offered at time and materials due to extra costs that may be involved with tying into the current pipes. • An estimate of what it would mean to the current utilities in that area was requested. • Streets will need to be built to join cusent streets for additional access to the facIlities. KENAI CI'I`Y COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 21, 2005 PAGE ll • The main administration building and the day care are proposed to be included in the first phase of the FCS complex. • The proposed trail system would be open to the public and would be maintained by the FCS. • FCS desires to begin the project in 2007 with completion in 2009. Administration was requested to provide a cost analysis for improvements to the water/sewer system; what would be needing to be replaced; the anticipated effect of the two completed projects on city systems; and, what the financial cost would be to the ciiy to support the two projects. A brief discussion followed in which Molloy requested to discuss the financing of the project at a later meeting, i.e. sale or lease of the property instead of donating it. Comments included: • Kluge noted, the grant sources FCS planned to contact wouid require site control by FCS and, he believed, it was imperaUve for council to support FCS having the site control (ownership) in order for FCS to acquire funding. • Massie agreed some thought should be given to selling the property instead of donating it due to the costs the city may incur to upgrade the system. • Porter explained FCS had come to council to request property be donated for their project because they were aware the city could make such donations; they selected the Redoubt Avenue property in response to the initial discussion; council gave FCS the go-ahead to work with administration with respect to a possible donation; and, FCS has gone to some expense to develop site designs, etc. based on the council's encouragement. • Molloy stated he believed it was council's responsibility to discuss the possibility of selling or leasing the property instead of donation as FCS may have the ability to finance the project. • Swazner noted, the councii had previousiy discussed the issue prior to Molloy's election. • Ross stated council did give direction to move forward, however it had now come to council's attention there could be major infrastructure costs to the city. Ross added, he may have a different view than Molloy, however he wanted to review what the infrastructure costs could be to the community before going too far. BREAK TAKEN: 8:14 P.M. BACK TO ORDER: 8:28 P.M. H-11. Discussion -- Dena'ina Point Estates, St. Augustine Addition. Kopp reported the city had the property line surveyed to delineate the drainage easement from Mr. Lowe's adjoining property; the bluff moved 50' in 21 yeazs; some of the work Lowe did on top was done on his property; the work done iower was on City KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 21, 2005 PAGE 12 of Kenai property; mitigation issues would have to be resolved with Lowe; he discussed mitigation work needing to be done during the summer months with Public Works Manager La Shot, the surveyor, and Mr. Butler. James N. Butler, III -- Butler referred to a memorandum and pictures he emailed to council, city departments and city manager indicating the earthwork that had been done on the property. Butler discussed concerns he had with the trespass, excavation, draining damage, etc. on the subject property. Butler noted his concerns as: • The project represents unauthorized activity on city property. • The excavation on the bluff face and deposit of materials would likety lead to new substantial damage on the blu£f as well as north and south of the excavation. • Extent of damage to city property, including the public works fixtures that had been there for many yeazs. Butler suggested: • The city identify a spec~c accounting code in order for all direct and indirect costs the city incurs due to the damage of its property are tracked and accessed against the responsible pazty. • The city obtain consuiting engineers to propose a site remediation strategy for the damage to city property, including the bluff, surrounding beach, and the city facilities. • After a remediation plan is developed and accomplished, obtain experienced contractors to remediate the damage. • Withhold any further pending site development approval on subdivision plans, etc. untii the extent of damage is known. • The responsibie party should pay for all cost of repairs. Discussion followed during which administration was asked what it planned to do with regazd to acquiring a damage assessment (physical and environmental) of the city's property and a mitigation plan developed. Kopp stated the Corps of Engineers could be requested to do a site assessment and in addition, historically document the look of the property. Kopp referred to his letter to Lowe which put him an notice an assessment would be made and Lowe would be responsible in mitigating the damage. Ross requested a mitigation plan be developed for councii to review at its second February meeting indicating who will do the environment/physical damage assessment and that Lowe has been notified of the city plans. There were no objections to the request from council. Butler stated it was his understanding human bones had been found during the excavation and asked what had been done with them. Kopp reported, finding bones KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 21, 2005 PAGE 13 along the bluff was not uncommon. Those that were collected were sent to the Medical Examiner's Office in Anchorage for review. H-12.

Application submitted by Kenai Church of God & Klauder & Company, 606 Petersen Way, Kenai, Alaska. City Planner Kebschull reviewed the staff report inciuded in the packet and noted the following: • The Building Official determined the cross was not considered a structure and should not be considered as pazt of the height of the building. The Commission must decide whether they are in agreement with the Building Official. • If the Commission disa~reed an additional vaziance of 12"4" would be required; making the total vanance 18'8". • Staff recommended approval of a variance for the height of 7' to allow for minor deviations from the design during construction. Commission Lawrence abstained from voting due to his employment with Klauder and Company. Chairman Haminelman opened tk?e public hearing. There were no comments and the public hearing was closed. MOTION: Commissioner Eldridge MOVED to recommend a variance of 19' to include the cross in the height of the structure as illustrated in the drawing. Commissioner Chase SECONDED the motion. Kebschull noted the Building Official would not consider the cross as part of the structure when issuing a building permit.

P205•66 -- An application for an Encroachment Permit for a side yard setback for the property known as Lot 5, Block 1, Thompson Park Subdivision (150 Fern Street), Kenai, Alaska. Application submitted by Bruce Passe, P.O. Box 2558, Soldotna, Alaska. Kebschull noted the following: • The applicant applied for a variance in 2002 to construct a garage with storage space above the garage into the side yard setback. It was noted in the public hearing the structure would be used for a garage and storage space. The building permit was issued for the same. • In September 2005 the Building Official was requested to conduct a final inspection at the request of the applicant. During the inspection the Building Official discovered an apartment had been built in the area designated as storage. The Building Official also noted the garage/apartment structure was not attached to the dwelling as noted on the plans. • The applicant received a letter advising he was in violation of the City's zoning and building codes by constructing the ap~tment without the required permits. He was also notified he would be required to pay additional residential water and sewer monthly fees. It was also noted the breezeway had not been constructed. • The applicant was now applying for an encroachment permit for the garage/apartment; the applicant indicated it was his intent to complete the breezeway; the zoning code requires a minimum of six feet between structures; and, without the breeaeway, an additional encroachment permit would be required. PLANNING 8c ZONING COMMISSION MEETING DECEMBER 14, 2005 PAGE 3 • Staff recommended approval with the stipulation the breezeway be completed no later than June 1, 2006. Staff also recommended no encroachment permit be issued until the construction of the breezeway was wmpleted and approved by the Buffding Official. Hammelman opened the public hearing. There were no comments and the public heazing was closed. MOTION: Commissioner Amen MOVED to approve PZOS-66 to include both recommendations of staff and Commissioner Lawrence SECONDED the motion. Discussion followed during which inciuded the following comments: • There had been no feedback from neighbors other than one response which resulted in no concerns after the City explained the situation. • This was a situation where one was well aware of the requirements to build a structure and the applicant basically said one thing and did another and it was a situation where the Commission should be watching what goes on in the City and should not allow people to push the law like this. • The City's hands tied as the construction was already completed and suggested those individuals who do not follow the rules be deterred with a fine. • Documentation of what transpired previously could be found in the staff report of the 2002 meeting, in the minutes of that meeting, and the building permit was issued for a garage/storage. • No occupancy permit was issued because the City could not give one as long as a zoning violation existed. • The penalty of taking advantage of the code would not be to not deny the application, but should be in the recommendations attached to it; the applicant could be given one more chance to meet the requirements; and, no one in the area complained about the issue. • It was significant the adjoining property owner did not have a problem with the issue. VOTE: Twait Absent Eidrid e Yes Amen No Lawrence Yes Hammelman Yes B son Absent Chase Yes MOTION PASSED. Hammelman explained the appeal process.

PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING DECEMBER 14, 2005 PAGE 6 Kebschull reviewed the materials included in the packet and discussion followed whether the iease application met the requirements of the Kenai Municipal Code, the Airport Master P1an, and the Comprehensive Plan. Kebschull reported, the Airport Commission reviewed the lease and in doing so considered four questions: • Does the use comply with the Airport Master Plan? The Airport Commission determined the use was non-aviation related and did not comply with the 2005 Master Plan Update. • Does the lease comply with the airport land use plan and the airport layout p1an? The Airport Commission determined the use did not comply with the 2005 Land Use Diagram as the Diagram designated the area for aviation use. • Those two items related to the proposed Airport Supplement Plan which had not yet been approved. • Should an interim use be allowed? The Airport Commission determined yes. Kebschuil reported a iengthy debate was held by the Airport Commission on the interim time and use and they decided to recommend a 12.5 year lease with no option to purchase; suggested the lease include an improved landscaping of the current lot, including a buffer hedge on the side street property and similar landscaping on the new development; and, recommended the landscape requirements be part of the lease. Kebschull presented a list of questions to the Planning & Zoning Commission to be considered and a determination made. They were: Did the Commission find the intended use complies with the zoning ordinance? Answer: Yes 2. Did the Commission find Comprehensive Plan? Answer: No 3. Did the Commission find 4. Did the Commission find for the property? Answer: Yes, in the 5. Did the Commission find Airport Master Plan? Answer: Yes 6. Did the Commission find Reserve? Answer: Yes. the intended use complied with the the application as complete? Answer: No. the proposed use as the highest and best use interim until the Airport use is identified. the intended use would conform to the current the parcel located in the proposed Airport 7. Did the Commission find the proposed use met the land use identified in the Airport Supplemental Planning Assessment? Answer: No. 8. Did the Commission find the interim use appropriate? Answer: Yes 9. Did the Commission find the lease should limit the time for the interim use? Answer: Yes. 10. Did the Commission find the lease should allow the property to be sold? Answer: No. PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING DECEMBER 14, 2005 PAGE 7 Kebschull stated she would provide a memo to Kim Howard regarding the Commission's comments on the subject and it would be forwarded to the City Council. 1-f. Discussion/Recommendation -- Tidelands Lease Application - City of Kenai Shore Fishery No. 2. Kebschuli explained, the City Code directs the Commission to determine that a contemplated use falls within that permitted under the zoning ordinance. As noted, the City does not zone the waters within the City of Kenai, however she believed it was reasonable to assume that if it were zoned, fishing would be a permitted use; the Cook Inlet is not zoned; pazcels only go out so far then there is no parcel base for that land; and, the lease applicant was also concerned about not being in attendance. MOTION: Commissioner Eldridge MOVED to approve the lease application ciung that the City already leases waters forward of this pazcei. Commissioner Lawrence SECONDED the motion. Hammelman referred to the question whether or not the Planning & Zoning Commission determines whether the contemplated use falls within the permitted under the zoning ordinance, and stated it did not. Following discussion, Kebschull suggested the Commission say it meets the zoning ordinance because it was not land, fishing is traditionally a permitted use within the waters, and the Commission requests the City Attorney to review the section of the code. WITHDRAWAL OF MOTION: Eldridge withdrew his motion to approve the lease application. MOTION: Commissioner Amen MOVED that the Planning & Zoning Commission finds the contemplated use is permitted under the zoning ordinance; because the property is not zoned and fishing is traditionally permitted use in that area; and the Commission requests the City Attorney to review that section of the Code. Commissioner Eldridge SECONDED the motion.

This is an exchange program with cities in the Russia Faz East. Senator Ted Stevens is the program sponsor and has funded it through USAID, an independent federal government agency that receives overall foreign policy guidance from the Secretary of State and exists to support long-term and equitable economic growth, agriculture and trade in foreign countries. In October 2005, a team of ICMA advisors traveled to the Russian Far East (FRE) to assess communities as candidates to take part in the Alaska Partnership Program. The goal is to improve the local government climate to allow small and medium-sized businesses to grow and create new jobs. ICMA Advisor Bill Monahan has invited the City of Kenai to pair up with the RFE community of Bolshoy Kamen. This city has been a"closed city" since 1947 when it was built to support a Russian navy ship and submarine manufacturing plant/shipyard. The city has recently become open to domestic and intemational affairs, and has recently been the site of several intemational conferences on the subject of dismantling nucleaz atms. Bolshoy Kamen has 40,000 residents, with 5,000 working on the repair of submarines, and 10,000 working in support related services to the shipyard. Bolshoy Kamen is one of only a handful of RFE communities that have a City Manager. It has a mix of Mayoral and CounciUManager forms of government. The 11 member Council appoints the Mayor, who appoints the City Manager. ,.,,u~ Bolshoy Kamen's primary chatlenges include: transitioning from government to private ownership of apartment buildings and teaching people how to apply the new laws of property ownership so they will responsibly manage their properties; improving connections of citizens to local businesses; helping entrepreneurs attract investment, as well as assisting the startup and growth of new businesses; improving relationships between citizens and city administraCion; and improving the delivery of government services to the public. ICMA requests the City of Kenai provide a mix of top-level administrative personnel, and Council members with strong enYrepreneurial skill sets to participate in the City/Links program. Total group size should be 3 to 5 par[icipants. The group is expected to draft a professional work product that will benefit the economic devetopment program of Bolshoy Kamen. ICMA will fund all expenses: air travel, other incidental travel, hotels, and per diem. The program is set up for the Kenai representation to make an initial one-week diagnostic trip to Bolshoy Kamen in late February to early March. Bolshoy Kamen would send representatives to Kenai in June or July, and fhe Kenai team would return to Boishoy Kamen in late fall 2006. On a logistics note, all participants should have cunent passports that have at ]east one year left prior to expiration. The ICMA Washington D.C. International Coordinator's Office will work with the City of Kenai to prepare the team for travel to Russia. Should Council agree to go forward wiYh partieipation in the ICMA City/Links Program, ICMA asks for A Resolution Supporting Participation In The International City/Counry Management Association (ICMA) Ciry/Links Program. I can have such a resolution prepared for the next Council meeting. See sample resolution attached.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Kenai City Council thaC the City Council supports the City's participation in the ICMA CityLinks Program, and by so doing endorses the promotion of democratic principles in Russia Faz East. PASSED: This day of 7anuary, 2006. internationai ~,~ ~ Ciry/Counry ~ ~ ICMA Management Association December 8, 2005 We aze pleased to f~ave this opportunity to invite you and your community to participate in the Russia Far East-Alaska Communities CityLinks Progcam. ICMA's CitvLinks Proaram is a technical assistance parfnership progrnm that utilizes the expertise of local govemment professionals ihrough professional municipal partnerslups. Through the efforts of Senator Ted Stevens and USAID, ICMA has the geat opporiwuty to sponsor a special Russia Far EastrAlaska CiryLinks Proiect, which is focused on econoanc development and the crearion ofjobs in Russian cities. ICMA plans to atatch cities and professionals from Alaska that have e~cperience and expettise in economic development which can be app(ied to address the needs of the Russian communities. The premise of this parmerslup is simple-we aze forming an 18 month city-based Alaska/Itussian Task Force, assigned to: • Identify challenges/obstacles to local economic development in Russia • Offer options • Implement solutions There aze nvo major ways you can participate in this program: •. Focus Conunuuity-Your community will agree to be the focus for the parmerslup, with Russian pnctitioners visiting your community, and seeing first-hand how your community works, and what you have done to build a 1oca1 economy, You will be asked to facilitate leaming sessions with city staff, private businesses, enh~eprenevrs, business and development associafions, and othez community resources. Locat practitioners will also travei ro the RFE to provide hands-on technical assistance to a Russian city. • Pracririoner Partner-For those who may wish to participate individually in rhis endeavor, we will offer the opportunity to work with Russian participants both in Russia and in Alaska. Funded by USAID and managed by ICMA, atl travel related expenses will be provided for both Russian and Alaskan participants, including food, lodging, flights, and some incidental e~cpenses. Pamcipanu must be willing to donate iheir time, with most communities simply making staff available to the project as needed. Trips will generally be 10-14 days long to both Russia and Alaska. W e know from the 75 partnerslrips sponsored by ICMA that the Russian communities will find ways to grow the private sector and create jobs from the practical, hands-on guidance of Alaskan local govexmnent/economic development practitioners. The benefits for Alaskan participants aze less tangible, but equally important. Expenence has shown that many believe that in a globalizing world the idea of ecanomic development can no loager stop at the city-limits. Some cities 6ave eaplored the benefits of hade wi[h their partner for theu local business community. OThers view this as an extraordiaary opportunity for their staffto work "outside the box" to solve problems, finding the sldlls developed as a result geatly benefit their city in the future. Regazdless the mo[ivarion, vutually all US participants view participation in the CityLinks program as a career highlight. 777 North Capitol Street, NE Suite 5~0 Washington, DC 20002-4201 202-289-4262 Fax202-962-3500 http:pwww.i i a.org ~ Focus communities and practitioners aze now being sought to match with Russian parmers. IF you aze interested, we invite you to visit the CityLiiilcs website. Additionally, I will be contacting you shor[ly to tafk moTe about the program, and answer your ques~ons. 21~anks very much for your considerarion.

PROJECI" ~4CTIVITY The "Pebble Proiect Activity Report" is a regularfeature of the Pebble Project Newsletter. Its ourpose is to provide adivity updatez in major areas of projed development. Driil Proaram Drilling continues in 2005 at Pe6ble. Northern Dynasty is improving its under- standing of the minerai resource, espe- cially around the eastern zone of the deposit. The company will use mre ~~/~"~~ sampies - long cylinders of rock attained by dnlling far oelow the earth's surface - to help determine how minerals can be most effective~y extracted from the rock. This indudes geochemical testing of rock samples to identify the amount of potentiaily reac[ive rock that must be safely managed. In other locations, drilling is being conducted to understand how underground water flows in the project area and how it affects surface water in the mine area. Northern Dynasty expects to drill 97,000 feet of rock core in 2005. To date, over 40,000 feet of drilling has taken place in 20 holes. In addition, 20 holes have been drilled to study the water that lies under the surface. in addition to drilling activity, seismic surveys are being done and test pits are being dug to provide i~formation necessary for designing the many structures that are proposed for the project. geot¢chnical data. Oriping team extracts core samples to determine mineralization. Project staff review a preliminary mine engineering plan. Mine Piannina Northern Dynazty continues to look at different configurations for the various facilities associated with the mine - induding the open pit, tailin9s storage, mine rock storage and the mill site. The preliminary mine plan - induding proposed mine and mill operations - will be laid out within Northern Dynasry's feasibility report, due later this year. Ore mined from the Pebble deposit will be crushed, ground and floated, producing two streams of process mate- rial. One will have all the copper and some of the goid, and the other wili have the remainder of the gald. An intense investigation is undenvay Drill stations col/ect important Core samples reveal desirable minerals. ACTIVITY REPORT Cont.

"^.~Y.:.;'il Culturai and socioeconomic envirom The Pebbfe Project is a complicated, muiti-year undertaking where mentai studies that started in 2004 are continuing in 2005. The study many factors may influence the timeline process. NDM is currently in a data will be compiled with the results period of data gathering. NDM expects to apply for permits in 2006 gathered during the 2004 season and with a targeted permii approval date roughly two years /ater. used in the development of the pre- liminary mine plan. The company has committed $18 million toward emironmentai study activities in 2005, double the 59 million zpent in 2004. The work being undertaken has been described by many as the most comprehensive baseline study ever undertak- en by any mining company in Alaska's history. Currently, more than 40 project consultants have been engaged in various etements of the environmental study program. The majority of the consulting groups hired are Alaskan and are recognized as being among the top in their respective rields. NDM continues to assist representatives of the State of Alaska wich their study ot a public two-lane road and port system that would service the Bristo~ Bay region and the Pebble Mine. NDM has initiated independent designs ot both a private, one-lane commercial road and port as an aiternative to the State's public design. These wiil be evaluated later during the environmentai impact state- ment (EIS) process. =ower A joint power study being conducted by Homer Electric Association (HEA) and NDM has made considerable progress. The study seeks to identify and assess the best possibie power trensmission routes. 3' ACTIVITY REPORT Cont. BASELINE STUDIES ON SUBSISTEN~E ~s part of the environmental study process, Northem Dynasty has funded a comprehensive study on subsistence use in the region around the Peb61e Project. The intent is <.o assess the potentiai effects of the Pebble Projea and !ts related transportation and utiiity corridor and port Infrastructure on subsistence uses. The NDM mnsuitants have undertaken over VO interviews ~o date, lazting from two to four hours each. Data has been coileRed on harvest amounts, harvest locations, harvest-use areas, distribution and sharing of resources and traditional knowledge. This is important information that can help us cefine a projec[ that minimizes imoacts on these resources Subsisfence resources: Griuly bear, blueberries, caribou, mushroom. and their use. Subzistence resources heing studied indude salmon and other tish, large Iand mammals (caribou, moose, sheep and bears), small game and furbearers, birds and wild plants. It is important to note the degree of security that NDM is employing to protect the specific traditional knowledge that NDM consultants gather. All subsistence information will remain confidential 6etween the consultant and the interviewee, and not even NDM will see the actual data. Only general results will 6e relayed for incorporation into mine development planning. These data belong to the people of those communities. The study area inciudes those communities whose residents may use the mine site, transportation and utility corridor, and port areas tor the harvest of subsistence resources that migrate through or use this area - 24 communities in all. The list of commu- nities i~ciudes: Nondafton, Newhalen, iliamna, Pedro Bay. Port Alsworth, Kokhanok, Iguigig, Levelock, Ekwok, New Stuyahok, Koliganek, Portage Creek, Dillingham, ~lark's Point, Ekuk, Aleknagik, Manokotak, Naknek, South Naknek, King Saimon, Niniichik, Homer, Seldovia, and Chinitna Bay. NORTHERN DYNASTY'S NO NET LOSS COMMITMENT Northern Dynasry has made a commitment to the people of Bristol Bay, and Alaskans in gen- eral, that there wili be no net projed-related loss to any fishery in the region. 7his position means that no fishery in the region will be reduced as a result of the project - be it a commercial, sport or subsistence, harvest. The No-Net-Loss poiicy does not imply that there will be no impact to fish or fish habitat. It means that Northern Dynasry wiil plan, buiid and operate the proposed Pebble mine in order to minimize both direct and indirect effects on fish and fish habitat. To the extent that any residual impacts on tish and fish habitat do occur, Northern Dynasty will add to natural fish productivity in the region to fully achieve its No Net loss goal. Northern Dynasty has adopted tfiis commitment independent of any state or federal requirement. G4 q NDM is committed to protect regiona! fishery resources. SURF THE NEW 'PEBBLE PROJECT WEBSITE' Northem Dynasty is pleased to unveil the new Pe6ble ?roject websiie (www ndmpebbiemine.com). The site is a source for information about the proposed mine.

With the Northern Dynasty drill program up and running, the mmpany is relying on the enthusiastic work of people like Reno to help attain the core samples that wili be used to develop the teasibility plan for the Pebble Project. Reno has been part of the drilling team since May and loves the new job. "IYs cool to be a part of a massive project from the beginning," Reno says enthusiastically. "IYS a start which may lead to greater opportunities." When asked about what he thinks about the plan for a mine in the community, Reno thinks for a moment and responds thoughtfully. "IYs a mixed readion because some people support the project since the fishing industry went belly up and some people oppose it becauze of concems of the impact on the environment and wildlife resources," says Reno. "IYs too early to tetl what it may mean, we'll just wait and see." (Jan - Sept 70) er 48) 17°/a 7°/u 66% you may have already met her. Read more a6out Martha in this newsletter's "Pebble Profiles".

We are in the process of registering Alaska commercial fishery entry permit holders that heid and actually delivered fish on their salmon or herring permits in any of 1989, 1990 and 1991. There are 34 different fisheries that we are currently working on, each specificaily identified on the enclosed notice. As much as 2.3% of the overal~ recovery from the Exxon Iawsuit will go to the unoiled fishery group. This allocation is based on the fact that the oii spill depressed the price of salmon and herring statewide. Therefore, even though these permit holders were not directiy affected by the oil spill, they did feel the impact of price damages and should register their fishery claims. We want to notify as many fishers as possible and tell them that the registration process for permit holders claims is currently underway and encourage them to register their respective claims before the court mandated deadline passes. The deadline is FEBRUARY 23, 2006. On or before that date, a person who wants to file a ciaim has to ask for a permit form, compiete it, and get it filed. No permit hoider claims for the 34 fisheries identifie~± in the rotice wil! be aocepted after ,his date. We thank you for your invaluable assistance in posting the enclosed notice and spreading the word to your feliow citizens. Piease call 907 486 6024 if you have any questions or concerns.
