The estimated cost of the project, including the gazebo, is $7,000.00. Cole added, there would be an article in the City's newsletter with bank account information for those wishing to make a donation. Hultberg asked about funding for the project and Cole noted Mr. Getty is adamant the project is done without assistance from the City. Hultberg asked if the City would cover the balance if the total amount is not achieved by spring and Councilwoman Porter reported the City's budget is tight at this time unless Frates is able to shuffle funds from the Parks budget. Porter recommended this be reviewed again in the spring. MOTION Commissioner Sandahl MOVED to recommend Council approve the gazebo plans. Commissioner Hultberg SECONDED the motion. VOTE: Baxter Sandahl Yes Yes Hultber§ Castimore Yes Absent Gilford Wisniewski Yes Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. Cole reported the cemetery had been vandalized and the police may know who did it. She added, many crosses and the fence had been damaged. Porter stated the airport is installing a security video camera and thought perhaps it could involve the cemetery. Cole will have Frates contact the airport manager regarding this. It was also reported the wrought iron fence is in the process of being installed and should be completed by mid-October. Discussion took place on water for the grass in the cemetery and Porter noted having a system instal/ed would be quite expensive and other options are being considered. ITEM 6: NEW BUSINESS -- None ITEM 7: REPORTS 7a. Commission Chair-- Wisniewski asked the following: · Has anyone applied to replace Sam Steiner. Cole answered she would ask Frates to check with the City Clerk to see if anyone has applied.

Another meeting is scheduled for October 9th at 2 p.m. at the Teen Center. The Commission was invited to attend. A meeting was held with the Boys & Girls Club regarding a team program with Parks & Recreation. It was noted this would save money for both programs. 7c. City Council Liaison -- Councilwoman Porter reported the Kenai Chamber of Commerce-approached Council with a fish design to be placed in planters throughout the city as a promotional program for the "Hooked on the Kenai' program (photos were shared with the Commission). She explained the Chamber hopes to have sponsors for the fish and the fees collected would go toward flowers for the planters. The sponsor's name would be etched on a plaque and placed near or on the planter. PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 3, 2002 PAGE 2 Porter also explained the Chamber presented the project to the Beautification Committee at their September 10, 2002 regular meeting. The Beautification Committee took no action at that time. Due to time constraints and an unclear understanding of meeting schedules and procedures, the Chamber then went directly to City Council for approval. Council gave approval to proceed with the project for one year. ITEM 8: COMMISSION OUESTIONS/h COMMENTS Commissioner Gilford asked about the future of the skateboard park, specifically where it would be moved. Cole replied nothing had been done on that but she would bring it up to Frates for discussion at the next meeting. Commissioner Sandahl recommended a festival be planned for when the Unity Bike Trail is completed. Sandahl proceeded to explain the reasons for the paving delay this year. Hultberg wanted to know who to talk to about the project to get some answers regarding the delays. Commissioner Baxter asked about the status of the Winter Games. Gilford explained, a crew is hand-delivering the Kenai proposal to Whitehorse and in four to five months a group will visit Kenai. Gilford added, this would be widely advertised and much local participation will be sought. When asked what communities were submitting proposals, Gifford answered Juneau, Kenai and Fairbanks for sure; she wasn't aware of any others. Councilwoman Porter asked what was going on with Municipal Park. Cole wasn't aware of anything'at this time. Porter asked for the Unity Trail issue be on the next agenda.
