Kenai Port and Harbor commission
Agenda Items for March 10, 200$
I would like to consider 2 items for recommendation to the City Council.
Item #1 I3arbor and Port Master Plan,_is a framework on which to consider projects
and planning activities. I have enclosed a proposed document that shnuld be considered
and given a meeting or two to consider and discuss the document before formal adoption
before recommendation to the city council.
Item #2 Kenai River Watershed Forum Bird Viewins Platform,_is a project that is in
need of discussion before the project is begun without a clear darectcon to an outcome
which is successful. They have some differences of interpretation and are interested in a
vital and functional project in the harbor area.
A. They could benefit by Depositing mud and fall that is removed from the city
boat launch this spring in the muddy area near the site of the project.
B. They could benefit by installing "Jersey Barriers" (Heavy concrete traffic
barriers) on solid ground by the roadway to prevent people from driving into
the usual mud hole and parking. These would be necessary for 1-2 years to
allow the restoration at which time they should be replaced by more attractive
parking bumpers.
C. They would like to grade and seed the area to "restore it after the Mud drains
and the barriers are installed.
D. They would like to have signs (Perhaps also fence) installed after the seeding
to protect the restoration.
E. They would like to get Corps of Engineer approvals (which they have already
initiated discussion) to drive pilings during next winter season (2008-2049).
F. We need a more complete drawing of fmalized location for the platform.
They are still open to suggestion.
G. We need discussion of the parking situation for the platform.

Although the Port and Harbor of Kenai has not been oriented toward industrial freight,
tanker, or shipping functions these functions may come in the future. Similarly,
transportation such as water taxi, and ferry services have been. considered in the past and
may arise again. Tour, fishing guide, booking services, and related activities may
develop within the Port and Harbor jurisdiction in the Kenai. City limits. Preparation
beforess much easier than catch up afterward. Encouragement of Enterprise in the Kenai
Harbor and Port is an economic treasure that has not been developed extensively. Many
jobs and much prosperity could follow thoughtful development of the port.

RE: PREPARATION OF COMMISSION/COMMITTEE PACKETS
During a recent commission meeting, a discussion took place about the meeting packets and a
desire to have them provided as a PDF file. This discussion has come up previously and at
that time, it was felt that packets should continue to be provided as a hard copy.
Presently, packets are copied and mailed to all seven of the commissions/committees provided
through this office as well as the Planning & Zoning Commission. To maintain consistency and
less confusion, this method will continue. However, on the same day the packets are prepared
and copied (which is done a week prior to the meetingj, the packets are also uploaded as a PDF
file to the city's webpage where it could be downloaded and saved to a hazd disk if so desired.
We have been uploading complete packets of all the commissions/committees since our new
copier/ scanner was installed. The scanner only scans in black and white and that is why we
try to provide color copies of maps, etc. in packet envelopes along with the hard-copied packet.
It is my understanding, a member indicated the City Council's packets are sent to them as a
PDF file. This is incorrect. At their direction, the council members receive a hard copy of the
meeting packet. In addition, a copy of the packet is placed on the city's webpage where it can
be viewed or downloaded and saved if desired.
You will find the commission/committee e-packets on the webpage as follows:
• Go to www.ci.kenai.ak.us
Click on 'Commissions & Committees' at the top of the page (just under the
picture).
• When you arrive on the 'Commissions 8s Committees' page, scroll down to 'Your'
Commission and click on 'Next Meeting Agenda.' From there you can review the packet or
download and save it to your hard disk.
If there are questions or concerns, please contact me at 283-8231...and thanks!
