4. OLD BUSINESS
a. Committee Vacancies
McGillivray said that the vacancies had been discussed by Council
and there was presently no one interested in serving on
Beautification.
Sparks felt that the Committee should declare to Council that there
were three vacancies which needed to be filled. Perhaps an ad
could be placed in the paper to get volunteers for these positions.
Breeden recommended that the Chamber or Bicentennial Board be
approached to have a representative on the Committee.
b. City of Kenai Flaqs
McGillivray said that Council had decided to stay with the same
flag at this time.

c. Flower Boxes
Swarner reported that she and Breeden had gone to the Feldman's
home to look at their flower beds. The Feldman's had said they
might donate some perennials to the City. Pictures of the flower
beds were available for the Committee to get an idea of what types
of flowers would be available. Swarner asked if the City would be
interested in these flowers.
McGillivray said that perennials are the hardest beds to maintain.
He also reported that the planting of flower boxes within the city
was not feasible for the P&R Department since there was no storage
space available for the 52 boxes the city presently uses.
Breeden said she felt the Committee should make suggestions as to
what kind of flowers would be planted throughout the city, even if
the nurseries provided the boxes.
Sparks requested that Breeden and other committee members bring
suggestions for flowers to the next meeting.
Swarner recommended that Warren Larsen, with the Extension Service,
be contacted to speak to the Committee about flowers which would be
most suitable for planting in the boxes.
Harvey said she would try to contact Larsen for the next meeting.
