· Dock Foreman Freden attended the Harbor Master meetings in Kodiak
and returned with many good ideas.
The ceremonial start of the Tustemena 200 Sled Dog Race would not start
at the dock as done in previous years. Instead it will start at the softball fields by
Kenai Chrysler and the route will go down Marathon Road, along the airport and back
to the softball fields.
Dock Foreman -- No report.
Eldridge asked if there were any new leases planned for the dock for the upcoming
year. Kornelis replied not at this time, and added the existing lessee contacted him
regarding lowering the rates. The lessee was asked to submit a proposal to the Harbor
Commission but nothing had been received to date. It was noted the current rate was
very low.
Thompson asked about dock maintenance and Kornelis reported maintenance was
done annually for the cables, fire protection equipment and fuel lines.
