5. OLD BUSINESS:
a. Update on Request by Mr. Bookey for RV Park: Mr. Bookey
will be meeting with the City Planning and Zoning .
Committee prior to coming to the next Kenai Parks and
Recreation Commission meeting in May. Until he presents
his proposal' to Planning and Zoning, no action can be
taken by this commission. -More to come on this.
b. Regulations for the Teen Center: Mr. McGillivray
reported on the recent disturbance at the teen center.
It seemed like just a few young people involved and the
trouble really didn't start while the teens were' IN the
center. However, extra security by the local police is
now happening. The police will be driving through
the area more often than they had been. Marry Medcoff
discussed the possibility of asking teens to show their
student activity cards prior to gaining entrance to
the Center. Commissioners felt this was a good
suggestion and it should be given serious consideration.
6. NEW BUSINESS:
a. Basketball Camp Request: The Kenai Parks and Recreation

camp fees, and possibly the use of the teen center for the
camp. The Commission will need to have the input
of the City Manager and Finance Director before making
their decision. Community Schools sponsored. the camp last
year and it was very sucessful. The big problem seems to
be insurance coverage. Kayo will try to find out more
about the extent of the City's liability or insurance
coverage for sponsoring an event like this one. Young
people from all over the Peninsula attended last year's
camp. No decision was made at this time.
b. NRPA Regional Conference: Informational booklets about
the conference were distributed Sunday seemed to be the
best day for Commissioners to attend. Let Kayo know if
you want to attend.· Registration needs to be in by
April 28th.
c. Report on Adult Softball: Councilman McComsey gave an
update on the tournaments that are scheduled for this
summer. There are quite a few teams planning to play
in Kenai this year. Kayo has a complete list of the
dates and times of the various tournaments.
7. COMMISSION COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS:
Just a reminder to let Kayo know if you want to attend the
conference on Sunday.
