SO ORDERED. ITEM 4: PERSONS SCHEDULED TO BE HEARD -, NOne. ITEM 5: REPORTS 5-a. Director · Tide Books -- Komelis reported he received a call from a representative of the Cook Inlet Keepers who informed him they would be providing the city with tide books for the coming year. He noted the books would include information about the Clean Water Act. · Donation Policy -- Komelis noted a concern was raised when reviewing the minutes of the November 8 meeting in which the development of a website and request for donations was suggested in regard to the Kenai Coastal Trail/Bluff Restoration Project and past discussions of involvement in a shorebird project. He reviewed the city's policy regarding projects requiting councirs approval, the use of budgeted funds and requesting donations. He reminded the Commission, if projects involve responsibilities of the city, the issue must first be brought to council for review and consideration. · Kenai Coastal Trail/Bluff Restoration Project -- Kornelis reported a workshop on the Kenai Coastal Trail/Bluff Restoration Project was scheduled for Tuesday, December 7, at 7'00 p.m. in the council chambers. He noted, the contract engineer was supposed to have notified interested citizens, commission/board/ committee members, etc. but a mix-up occurred and not all the notifications had been mailed. Komelis added, there were notices published in the Peninsula Clarion and public service announcements were broadcasted by local radio stations. Komelis reported he was told by the engineer they were over budget in regard to the preparation of the draft plan. The engineer was also reminded they were responsible by their contract to include right-of-way cost estimates for the project. Dock Foreman -- No report. Scrapbook Information -- No report. ITEM 6: OLD BUSINESS Kenai Coastal Trail/Erosion Control Project-- Design Concept Report A general discussion took place in regard to the draft report which was distributed to :the Commission with their packets. McCune stated he liked the introduction as it described the purpose of the project very well. He suggested the "and for fishing" be excluded due to the controversy involved with the dip net fishery; it may be better not to include fishing as a main purpose of the trail. McCune also thought the cost estimate was low, especially the cost for moving heavy rocks. He noted, he thought the rest of the report was very informative. Councilman Bookey stated he thought the 25% contingency was high and the remainder of the cost estimate low, i.e. down drains and culverts. He added, he wanted to be sure the amounts were fairly accurate as he didn't want the city to request funding from the congressional delegation and be several million dollars off. Bookey noted, it would be more difficult for the city to make up for shortages in funding than to return unused amounts. Komelis noted he had discussed his concerns about some of the quantifies included in the estimate and was told they planned to transport some of the materials from Port McKenzie. He added, he would be discussing the quantities further with the engineer prior to the workshop. Bookey agreed w/th Kornelis that the dirt work costs seemed HARBOR COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES DECEMBER 6, 1999 PAGE 2 very low. Komelis noted Nottingham agreed with him the asphalt estimate was inaccurate and thought it should be more like $100/unit. Komelis reported, the trails the Harbor Commission suggested be included in the proposed coastal trail were removed because of the ADA accessibility requirements for the whole trail. He added, his suggestion would be to include those additional trails as additive alternates and if funds were not available, those portions of trails could be taken out of the project. Komelis noted, approximately $1 million would be added for right-of-way costs at $2.00/square foot. He also noted support piles could be used instead of the strand bridge and that would also lower the cost. Komelis suggested the extra trails could add as much as $240,000 to the project cost. Komelis added, the trail before the Miller House cut back more toward the river and they will want to divert the fiver away from the dunes. Some slope stabilization will be needed there and he believed they would want to make sure this is included in the project. He continued, once the report is done, copies would be made and the council would then pursue funding for the project. When asked if council supported the project, Bookey stated he believed all the council did, however they had been anxious to get the cost estimate. He added, the council understood the city could not fund this project, but federal funding may be acquired. Bookey stated, he thought if the project cost would be $10 million or less, they would have a good chance of receiving funding. The study done approximately 25 years ago was discussed briefly and it was noted the cost for that project was $20-$25 mi!!~on. A comment was made the cost of the project must have escalated since then. Thompson suggested the present proposal was much more practical than the previous one. McCune suggested fighting be considered, if not now, in the future. Bookey stated, it was unknown at this time if the trail would be maintained for winter use. It was suggested the trail be' blocked off to keeP snow machines/four-wheelers, etc. off the path. It was also noted ramps would be placed at intervals along the trail for fishing access.
