ITEM 2: Minutes of Regular Meeting of May 2.0, 197 were approved as
submitted.
NOTES on report of Howard Keiser, on environmental pollution;
Mr. Keiser advised he was here to help. rather than. to critize.
Cannieries many years in existence. have not come up with a solu-
tion to their problem of disposing of waste. Fish waste is not
really defined as pollution. The real health hazards are in
human waste as in the Kodiak Harbor. The beaches used by the
public in Kodiak are only a few feet from where sewage enters the
water.
At the present time the City does not have a health officer, but
could possibly enforce the Ordinances of the City of Kenai. The
Kenai Peninsula Borough depends on the State to enforce the laws
regarding any health hazard matter.
The City could put up signs on the beaches where there is a defi-
nite health hazard.
Mr. Keiser feels he has had excellent cooperation with past and
present City Manager's of Kenai in Kenai's problems.
Mr. Bob Wells of the Economic Development District discussed small
boat harbors. He advised that there are funds available for small
boat harbors if it can be economically justified. There should be
matching funds. available from the primary source such as municipal
governments. Priorities are established on the basis of availabili-
ty and desirability. It is possible that the people who would use
the small boat harbor would put up some of the matching funds.
The Kenai feasibility study, according to Mr. Wells, is the EDD's
responsibility and. at this time it is not very. active. He suggested
that the Planking Commission and EDD could serve the same purpose -
either approach people or local EDD Committee. .The Committee should
approach the Mayors and City Manager's of Kenai and Soldotna and
not let the Corps of Engineers rest.
Mr. Wells advised that EDA Grant money is in 60o range where the :jobs
created are justified.
Mr. Norene suggested that meetings be set up with related industries
which might use the facility.
Clerk to extend invitations to the following for the purpose of set-
ting up a meeting to discuss the small boat harbor.

subdivision.
Clerk requested to write a letter to Public Works Department of the
City of Kenai advising that Lots 12 through 24 and 27 through 30, Block
1, (noting that Lot 30 has no access) be considered as fronting on an
alley way of Bush Lanes Subdivision and be subject to minimum front
yard set-back., as required by City of Kenai Zoning Ordinance. This will
exclude Lots 25 and 26, Block 1, which fronts on either Illiamna or
McGahan streets. Note- the Post Office Department designated the street
as Illiamna Street and the street sign designates it as McGahan Street.
