MEMORANDUM
K E N 4
210 Fidalgo Ave, Kenai, AK 99611-7794 1907.283.75351 www.kenai.city
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
FROM: Council Member Douthit
DATE: February 1, 2024
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 3395-2024 — Increasing General Fund for Radio
Advertising for Public Meetings and Elections
I respectfully ask for your support of Ordinance No. 3395-2024 supporting the new radio
advertising policy and funding for the City to utilize radio advertising. This policy is to allow for city
staff to promote elections and meetings via radio advertisements. The Ordinance also provides
funding for advertising of other governmental notifications brought forth by city staff as
needed. This will allow a much -needed resource to notify the public of City
governmental happenings with the goal of increasing resident participation in elections, meetings
and other events. This Ordinance is intended to bring in more applicants for board and
commission openings and raise awareness of events by radio notifications created by city staff.
Examples of some notifications that could done by city staff could be: animal shelter
notifications of animals available for adoption, library events and readings, city road closures and
public works notifications such as hydrant flushing/adoption opportunities and leaving water
running when is cold outside. In addition, these notifications could include city employment
openings and dip net fishery notifications. There are numerous possibilities for this type of
advertising.
Radio advertising is the probably the most effective advertising tool on the Kenai Peninsula and
is currently underutilized by the City. I have consistently received requests by Kenai constituents
that they have a desire to be more aware of what is happening within the City. Please support
this new policy and Ordinance No. 3395-2024 to reach the residents of Kenai and keep them
apprised to City government happenings and keep the city government as transparent as
possible for the public.
Thanks
Alex Douthit
