Council scheduled a work session for January 8, 2007 beginning at 4:00 p.m. and
held in the council chambers.
• Reported he erred in comparison information presented. at the special
council meeting of December 26 with regard to preventative dental care, i.e. previously
reported was the policy would pay 100°ro, however it will pay 80% with 20% co-pay.
Because he believed council did nat want the employees to incur additional expense,
he suggested the city incur the difference in cost of approximately $12,000 through
June 30 in the city's self-insurance plan. Additionally, the new' plan would not cover
dependent COBRA costs (previous plan covered to age 25, new plan to age 23) and
suggested the city cover those costs (approximately $34,000 through June 30}. The
commitment to covering these costs would be through June 30 and then the council
would be making decisions on coverage for the new fiscal year. There were no
objections stated from council.

Memorandum
To: Riok Koch, City Manager
From: Chuck Kopp, Cluef of Police
Date: alro8ia7
Re: Police Uniform Al]owance Increase
This proposal is to raise the Police Uniform Allowance to an ignitable level, given
current costs of acquiring, maintaining, repairing, and replacing uniform apparel and
associated items.
The current uniform allowance has not been increased since L986, and is inadequate to
maintain a professional police appeazance. Uniform replacement and cleaning costs have
increased significantly in the past 21 years. It is recommended thatthe wlifonn allowance
be raised from $600 to $800 annually.
The follovring is an itemized 1sst of clothing and equigment officers purchase and
maintain.
Annaal costs: Unit Total
Wool blend uniform long sleeve shirts (x2} 79.00 158.00
Wool blend uniform short sleeve shirts (x2) 74.00 148.00
Wool blend uniform trousers (x2) 82.00 164.00
Uniform Police Patches sewed on uniform {x6) 5.00 30.00
Dry cleaning {monthly) 30.00 360.00
$860.00
Three-year costs:
Uniform footwear (Danner boots} 200.00 200.00
Exterior Bullet Resistant Vest Careier 250.00 250.00
Utility (BDU) uniform 70.00 70.00
Rechargeable flashlight I2Q00 120.00
Duty Leather gloves 60.00 60_00

Plain clothes gun holster 65.00 65.00
Plain ciethes badge carrier 35.OG 35.00
Plain clothes handcuff carrier 35.00 35=00
$135.00
Comparison to Dther Age®cies
Kenai Police Department
Uniform Allowance = $600 {Two $300 checks per year)
Dept. provides majority of operational equipment, uniform. accessories and all duty
leather gear, to include cold weather gear and summer coats.
Officers purchase Department approved wool blend wriforrns, battle dress uniforms
(BDUs for training), exterior vest carrier, rechargeable flashlight, winter and summer
footwear, off duty leather gear and duty Ieather gloves.
Dept. does not pay for dry cleaning. Dry cleaning costs listed above ($360/yr) only pay
for 2 uniform dry cleanings per month. Uniforms soiled with blood or any body fluids
must be professionally cleaned. OSHA discourages integration of uniform wear with.
personal/family laundry. The wool blend wuforms are machine washable, and dry-clean
recommended.
Soldotna Police Department
Uniform Allowance = $1.200 (One check ner year)
Dept. provides majority of operational equipment, uniform aocessories and all leather
gear, to include cold weather gear acid summer coats, and cold weather winter boots.
Officers purchase Department approved wool blend uniforms, summer footwear, and
leather gloves.
Dept. does not pay for dry cleaning.
Palmer Police Department
Uniform Allowance = $570 (two checks for $285}
Allowance is for Uniform Maintenance /Cleaning only
Everything except baots provided by Department. Officers are not required to purchase
or replace equipment with their uniform allowance.
Dept. provides officer with $500 leather jacket for duty wear after 5 years of service.
~ Page 2

Homer Police Depaztmenik
Uniform Allowance = $0
Dept, provides everything except boots and gloves.
Dept. pays for dry cleaning ser-i~ice. Dry cleaning service comes to Homer PD three times
per week, picking up uniforms for cleaning and pressing at department expense.
Alaska State Troopers
Uniform Allowance = $0
Department provides evervthing, and all replacement items as frequently as needed.
Dept. pays for dry cleaning service.
Conclusion
The li'niform Allowance at KPD has not been adjusted for 21 years, while costs of many
items haue more than doubled. Officers must purchase and maintain the above listed
uniforms and equipment at their own expense, or aIIow those items to deteriorate to stay
within the current uniform allowance.
An option to increasing the uniform allowance is to have the department pay for the
Three-yem~ cosi items currently purchased by the officers. An increase in the uniform
allowance to $864.44 annually will help alleviate cutzent costs associated with uniform
purchase, care and. maintenance, and contribute tv the professional appearance of fhe
Kenai Police Department.
Agencies that do not provide an allowance to purchase tmiforms incur a great deal of administrative time
and paperwork costs associated. with weekly purchase orders, returned items, refunds, or partial refunds.
Agencies t1taT provide a uniform allowance pass along the buxdens of ordering, returning, cleaning, and
maintaining equipment to those officers.

MEMO(~/kNDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Larry Semmens, Finance Director
TNRU: Rick Koch, City Manager
DATE: January 09, 2008
SUBJECT: Investment Report
At December 31, 2007 the City had investments with a market value of $37,490,504.43.
This is the highest calendar year-end value of the portfolio since December 2000. Due
to airport land sales primarily, this balance is up over $2 million from last year. The
securities in the portfolio have also gained nearly $300,000 in market value since dune
30. 2007. The outlook for interest rates seems to be for continued declines in short
term rates. The breakdown of types of investments held is:
US Agency Securities $32,064,427
AML Investment Pooi $ 4,981:417
Rank Rafa.n.r_.P $ 444,860
The AML Investment Poo! balance is higher than normal because it is paying more than
the rate an two year securities. This will change over the next couple months, so I plan
to reduce this balance to normal levels of $1 to $2 million to provide liquidity.
My base strategy of investing is to buy and hold. As cash is available I invest it at the
best rates available within the time frames necessary to meet cash tlow needs. Some
of the securities in the portfolio are callable, which means the issuer can redeem the
security for fihe par amount at their option. A call generally only occurs when rates are
falling, whicf7 means that the investor will reinvest at a lower rate of interest. I have
been picky on purchasing callable securities due to the uncertainty that owning them
produces. I am usually only interested in buying securities with either no call options or
one-time call structures. On a very infrequent basis I sell a security to meet cash flow
or to increase yield by purchasing another higher yielding investment. if you have any
questions or corriments about the City's investments please contact me. A copy of the
portfolio is attached.

DEPARTMENT
Date: 3anuary 9, 200&
To: City Manager
From.: Fire Chief Tilly
SuUject: Midmonth report
Runs for the timeframe of 2007:
Run total for the year 1381 runs
Total last year at this time 1297 runs 6.5% increase
Our department went through many changes in the year 2007. We are presently
working on a complete year end report and will have it to you soon,
Overall the Kenai Fire Department ended up with 1381 requests for service this
past year. As shown,'this a 6.5°lo increase over last year. We continue to see a
steady growth of between 6 and 9°fo growth in the ca[I volumes from year to year.
Our community interactions have continued to grow with training and participation
in the Safe Kids and the Car Seat Program for a number of members within our
department. This past year our department took the lead to designing a
Community Emergency Response Course for all school teachers in the area. The
program was adapted and shared Peninsula wide. A redesigning of our fire..
prevention program this last year assured that every class and every child got the
needed training in our community.
Our continued efforts to secure grant funds were successful with a few fire
department related grants being awarded to our department. This past year we
aiso secured grant funding to re-write the City's emergency operations plan. This
past fall we organized a full scale disaster drill to not only test our capabilities at
the airport but exercise this same plan,
Our department participated in the Northern Edge State wide emergency exercise
this past summer. We had several members attend the National Fire Academy in
Emmetsburg MD.
This is just a brief look at our past year and again, we look forward to presenting
our year end report.

To: Rick Koch, City Manager
From: Robert J. Frates, Forks & Recreation Director
Date: January 9, 2008
RE: Mid-month Report
A total of 100 hours were reserved at the ice rink for the month of December. This is an increase
of 17.25 hours over last year during this time: The new ice-resurfacing rnachlne is expected to
arrive sometime toward the end of February. Metal frames and doors have been added to the
exterior warniing shacks and no indications of vandalism reported.
Snow accumulation at the end of December allowed very limited grooming of trails and only in
certain areas. However, recent snowfall has allowed the department to groom the entire SK loop.
Tracks will be set soon and marking of trail will depend on future snow accumulation.
We will also be investigating whether or not it makes sense for us to pack the East End trails via
snowmachine since some disc golf enthusiasts continue playing.
A community service worker completed a total of 40 hours with fne depaztment last month.
Groundskeeper Bralley was able to take advantage of this opportunity and. constructed two new
picnic tables and made repairs to another.
The department will be coordinating with Boys and Girls Club with rsspect to replacing same
tile in the Rec. Centex bathrooms. This late spring will most Likely be the best time to
accomplish this work.
The Director submitted a request for bear proof containers far certain park areas through Larry
Lewis, ADF&G. There is a very good chaaice we will be taking delivery of a few containers this
spring.
The department has approached the Kenai Lions Club about working jointly on a playground
project for Old Towne Park. Additionally, a grant application (LWCF) for a restroom/storage
facility to State Parks is nearly complete and will be submitted for consideration. The Director
has also been working on finalizuxg a draft budget for parks, beautification, recreation. and
harbor.

The committee met today with 8 of its 9 members present. fihe
first item was for the need to have an alternate to insure a
quorum, The second item was discussion of adding an
additional committee member and bringing a proposal to the
board next month for approval. The next item discussed was
working on the guide replacement policy. It was decided for the
coming year to leave in place the in season replacement policy
of requiring the use of either a veteran river guide or guide
academy graduate. Far the long term, the committee will be
researching the proper mechanism to define a replacement
guide through regulation changes. Next. was discussion of the
132
Kenai River guide complaints summary for 2007. As a result
for the next year some complaints will be brought to the guide
advisory board. The fourth item was bringing the board up to
date on priorities determined on December ISt2007. Joe stated
that as of early today there were only 3 seats available for the
December Guide Academy while the remaining classes through
May 2008 are full. Joe stated that there was little discussion on
the limited entry.
8. Kenai Rivsr Center Report -Russell
Pam asked Jack Lashot for an update on the Kenai gravel pit
subdivision development on Beaver Creek from. Wednesday's
meeting.
Jack Lashot said he wasn't sure what happened at the meeting.
Pam referenced the Boa<*d's desire about developing a
committee to review plats sent to the Kenai River Center that
may potentially affect the Kenai River. The board in the past
has been left out of commenting on these proposed plats due to
the timing in the borough's review and approval process.
Gary asked how much time would be needed to review the
plats.
Pam stated 3 weeks and the Kenai River Center receives the
plats twice a month for all twelve months. The committee
formed would need to be committed to meeting twice a month
to review these plats to da the leg work and computer work to
research the project.
Joe stated in the past the board has not been given the
opportunity to give input; all the issues that are coming up
need to be caught beforehand. fihere are six different
committees, one for each of the different priorities. There is a
need for a committed working body.
Pam stated due to the overall size of the number of plats
needing review she would need help to identify and review those
plats that may be affecting the Kenai River.
Jim asked how the board was going to function in a timely
manner. There will be deadlines that won't be voted on by the
board, such as those that take place in the summer. There

may be a need for an email voting system, because up until
now action has been made as a group.
Pam stated the plat (Lakes at Kenai subdivision} went to the
City of Kenai Planning and Zoning Committee last night.
Gary asked if Pam received copies of all the preliminary plats,
not just the coastal water bodies.
Pam said she receives all preliminary plats.
Gary commented there were nearly 800 preliminary plats
created by the borough last year.
.7im C asked. if Pam received both city and borough plats, i.e.,
Soldotna, Kenai, and borough plats.
Pam said she received a.ll plats.
Curt stated that it raised a question: 1s our role to advise the
agencies on items the board feels are important and have a
thorough review of these plats regarding their effect on the
watershed?
Jack S. stated part of the workshop determined it is very
important for this board to work with the local agencies on
development issues that effect the Kenai River. The board
probably won't be able to review every plat, but if a line can be
drawn around the buffer of the Kenai River, this would be the
primary area of interest.
Pam said most of the time we can tell if it's going to affect the
Kenai watershed.
Jack S. stated what bothered the board in the past was the
opportunity wasn't there for the board to participate in the
development issues on the Kenai River.
Joe agreed stating the first thing was to have Pam look at the
plats and determine if they might impact the river. Then it can
be funneled down to a certain degree and those that have an
impact can go to committee.
Pam stated no one at the Kenai River Center had jurisdiction in
the Beaver Creek gravel pit project. The Corp of Engineers had

no unsdiction either. The onl eo le that
type of jurisdiction would be those from P~3
Jack L. stated it was a private developmenfi.
Jack S. talked. to Rick Koch regarding the Beaver Creek gravel
pit and stated the concerns surrounding it. Specifically, the
runoff issue to make sure it is looked at more closely when
Looking at drainage and safeguards for runoff. There needs to
be some way to establish the baseline outfall in the Beaver
Creek area.
C. Board Deveiopment Traitting Dates -Board Discussion
Jack S. stated the need io set aside a meeting time for board
training. This training would help the board to function
together on different issues and find things that are important,
use tlzase as examples, and tackle those issues together.
January will be the month to choose the floor seats of President
and Vice President. The Board of Fish will be going on during
February.
Joe said that the Board of Fish would be over by the 12~ of
February.
Jack S. stated March 1st 2008 was the tentative date for the
board development training.
D. Cooper Landing $gpass status report -5inciair
The Cooper Landing bypass project is still on track. Jack
Sinclair stated there had been some doubt voiced at a previous
board meeting about whether the bypass project was actually
going to happen. He spoke to 130T Engineer Teresa
Zimmerman who is assigned to the project and confirmed that
they are still working hard at it. There is a DVD of maps and
plats available for those that are interested. Work is still being
done on the EIS reports. Working on the wildlife crossing,
biological and geological studies. Up until last year very little
ground. frothing had been done on sail types and wildlife
crossings. The technical reports are due later in 2008.

Minutes -December 13 2d67

Jack Sinclair reported that there are now two different
regulation proposals in the works. One is the Kenai River 50-
horsepawer increase removing the older 2-stroke engines and
requiring 4-stroke or cleaner 2-stroke technology and the boat
length and width restriction an the river. It is on the Lieutenant
Governor's desk and has not yet been signed. The other
proposal is for changes to several park regulations throughout
the state. Three of them are regarding the Kenai River. Two
create new boating no-wake speed limit areas an the Kenai
River at the slough at Riverquest and Tukak Harbor areas. The
.other regulation is raising boat launch fees. There is a current
ceiling amount throughout the state. of $10.00 for boat launch
fees. This regulation will raise the ceiling to $20.00 for boat
launch fees. The reason is to keep up with the local costs now
charged at the local private bast launches, which have raised
their fees. The pressure was for State Parks to maintain some
semblance of boat launch fees that would be competitive with
local private beat launches. Based on this regulation the fee at
Pillars would raise by X5.00. It will be in effect by 2008 or
2409. For any concerns ar comments, please put those into
writing send those up to Dnr.parkre~s(a~alaska.~ov. The
deadline far comments for this regulation package is January
2~d, 2008. There is a public meeting next week on Wednesday
December 19~, 2007 at Loussac Public Library in Anchorage.
Joe asked when the process is over ff there would be a
commencement of another process so that a year from now
there will be new proposals going in?
Jack. Sinclair stated if there is a need, the process will be
initiated.
Jae commented there were a couple things that came from their
committee that were on the table for the next ga around.
Jack LaShot asked on the no-wake area, what is the distance?
Jack S. said it was a milepost marker on the river that
essentially calls for a no-wake area and presently posts a no-
wake area at Castaway Cove all the way to Riverquest
subdivision. It's the slough that goes behind the narrow island.
There is nothing posted and it is not officially a no-wake speed
zone. There are people who have been entering Castaway Cove
from the downstream side on step and it's potentially causing
habitat damage in that area. The other area is on the opposite

side of the river in front of Tukak harbor, from the tip of the
small island to the bottom of it. There are some people that
have problems with this regulation right now and are
commenting to that affect.
F. SE%kok t;reek cultural Resource Management Plan
T%meI%ne- Sinclair
Jack Sinclair stated the lead archeologist assigned to the
project is Richard Vanderhoek, the author of the Guttural
Resource Management Plan book. Mr. Vanderhoek will be
taking most of winter to assemble technical data on the site and
confirm data on the archeological site on the state land. The
plan is to produce a preliminary document by March for the
public to review. There should be public meetings in March
regarding this preliminary draft in order to take in public
comment. Some people have requested a separate meeting
altogether, possibly on a weekend. There are possible plans of a
separate meeting and maybe a field trip if the weather is good to
the Slikok Creek site.
Curt asked what the extent of damage was on the project that
was halted earlier this year at Slikok.
Jack stated on the state side there was no damage.
Curt asked if there was more damage on the college ground.
Jack said it wasn't evaluated.
Jim C asked if this would address only the historic things on
DNR land and not those on the college property.
Jack said not necessarily. Judy Bittner's authority extends over
all state land. With this situation, Judy would address the area
adjacent to the park land as well.
Jim Czarneski asked if the plan was to take in the entire site.
Jack said yes.
IV. ATEW BiTSINESS
~a. Boaters handbook -Boating Safety Education
f:oordinatos Joe McCullough
Kenai River Speeial Management Area Advisory Board
Minutes -December 13, 2007
Page 6 of 14
137
Jack S. introduced boating instructor f coordinator, Joe
McCullough with the State of Alaska, Office of Boating Safety.
Joe M. stated an Alaska Boater's Handbook supplement is in
the works for the Kenai River. Topics that the book will cover
include safety, hazards, rules of the road, things that are
dangerous, and services on the river. A copy of the new
regulations may be included in the boater's handbook.
Jack Sinclair stated Joe McCullough sent a rough draft of the
Kenai River Boater's Handbook and it had been passed around
for review and comments
Jae McCullough stated the deadline far c®mments on the Kenai
River Boater's Handbook will be January 11, 2008.
Joe Connors asked how extensively the rules of the road would
be discussed in the boater's handbook.
Joe McCullough answered stating the rules of the road would
discuss items such as passing other boats on the river and
using sound signals.
Joe C. asked how the boater's handbook will be disseminated.
Joe M, stated there will be 50,000 handbooks printed and that
handbooks will be printed to meet the demand. The handbooks
will be amended whenever needed:
Joe C. asked if there would be shops or stores where the
handbooks would be located.
Jack Sinclair stated the local hardware store, the Refuge, places
where fishing licenses are issued and visitor centers are places
the handbooks will be available.
Jae M. stated the boater's handbooks will have unlimited
distribution and that boating safet}T classes are offered on
demand.
Jack Sinclair asked what classes where offered for boaters.
Joe M. stated classes such as Alaska Water Wise, Instructor
courses, Boating Alaska, Paddling Alaska, Cald Water
Immersions, and Kids Don't Float Education.

Jack S. stated it would be great if the Boater's handbook had
special points of interest on maps of the river, as well as goad
aerial photos of the river with descriptions, such as turns and
corners to be aware of on the river when boating.
Joe M. asked for comments prior to January ld~' 2008 meeting.
There will be additional drafts sent out for those wanting to
review it.
Bobby Jo asked if any portion of the handbook would be used
in the Guide Academy.
a -,
Jack S. stated that Jacques does an introduction on boating the
first day of the guide academy. The Coast Guard also
discusses boating concerns.
Joe M. stated a map of the Kenai River is currently being
developed within DNR. The boater's handbook itself will be fl-
inches tall and 4-inches wide. When the book is opened there
will be 3 folds on each side for the map of the Kenai River. This
map will have points of interest.
Jack S. stated a copy of the smaA craft advisory from last
month was passed around to board members.
Joe M. stated the federal government will pass mandatory
boater education. The shortest would be 2-3 years the longest
5 years. When that happens Alaska will have to pass some type
of legislation or adopt the federal legislation. There are only 6
states that don't have some type of mandatory boater's
education. All of these states are at the top with fatality rates.
Alaska is 10 times the national average for boating accidents.
The boating safety advisory council meets twice a year. The
next one will be in May 2008. Please e-mail for exact dates.
Gary asked if there were any states that applied it to individual
waters rather than state wide.
Joe M. said yes, different water, different boat types, lengths,
age requirements, and sizes.
Jack S. asked if there was a regulation on the river for boater's
education and will assistance come from the Office of Boating
Safety?
Kenai River Special Management Area Advisory Board
Minutes-December 13, 200'7
Page 8 oflA
139
Joe M. stated if mandatory education happened, assistance
would be given for that regulation on the Kenai River. If Alaska
had a boater education requirement in place the federal
government would not preempt it.
Brenda asked if information could be added to the introduction
or under the rules of the road portion of the handbook,
regarding findings from the boat wake study. The biggest
impact to bank erosion was how the boat was driven and how
close the driver was from the shoreline.
S. Gommittee Assignments and Gomp Plan ltevsew Follaw-
up- Wellman
Jack S. expressed the need to identify the committees,
determine what the duties would be and how often the
committees should meet. A document was handed out labeled
Recreation to all board members. It contained
recommendations to the board. A recommended potential
committee list was also included. Jack asked the board for
consent to include the last four items on the Iist of the original
packet to make a top 10 list.
Joe Connors proposed that the last 4 items on the list should
be included on the original packet to make the top 10 list.
George Heim seconded the motion. There was no discussion.
Robert B. asked if the items on the List were in any particular
order.
Jack S. stated they were prioritized
Jack S. stated the need for committee assignment and that
they would like to see each member serve on at least one
committee.
Joe C. asked about making all new committees.
Jim Czarneski added item F to agenda to talk about Kenai
Watershed Forum.
G. Board of Fish proposals- non-alloeative items for
consideration- Wellman
Kenai River Special Management Area Advisory Board
Minutes -December 73, 2b07
page 9 of 74
140
Jack S. stated there were three proposals forthe board to
support; these were in a handout the board members received.
The proposals were proposal 221, 300, and 302.
Joe stated the fish and game proposal number 221 has been
modified by 2 advisory boards. Those advisory boards were
Cooper Landing and Soldotna AC, which have recommended
this proposal be tailored to be consistent with the 50 horse
proposal. If it goes into effect in 2008 and only in July, then
they would initiate theirs correspondingly, They would not
allow 'the motors in July 2408, because the original was in
2010. _
Curt stated the original proposal was to address the
hydrocarbons below the bridge. The idea was to phase the new
regulation in over a few years and not have it take effect until
2v i 0. The idea was to allow them to still participate in the
fishery and .give them some time to react to the new regulation.
Joe stated that in the KRSMA, the two-stroke phase-in over 3
years has been taken care of. Below the Warren Ames Bridge
we are only catching one user. There will still be a component
fishing below the bridge, which will be sport fishing the King
fishery and will be allowed to use two-stroke motors. People
wworking commercially coming into the harbor from their sites
will still be allowed to use two-stroke motors.
Jack asked when the deadline for comments was for this
proposal.
Robert Begich stated written comments are due 18~ of January
2008. A partial board will be coming down on January 30~,
2008 at 5:00 pm to hear public comment.
Jae stated their new officers should be in place by then. The
new president could go to the board and represent them on
those issues.
Curt asked if anyone knew exactly when the board of fisheries
met in Anchorage?
Joe stated the board of fisheries meets February 1st through the
12~ 2008. df you don't speak in the public portion, you can't
serve on the committee.
Kenai Ttiver Special Management Area Advisory Board
Minutes--ecember 13,2W7
Page 30 of l4
141
Jim suggested we wait and vote on these at the next meeting.
Jack Sinclair agreed.
Joe discussed proposal 300, which would be a requirement that
all powerboat operators on the Kenai River pass an Alaska
Powerboat Operator's course. A similar issue is Priority #3
from the Board's River Use Education Committee charge. This
regulation would be consistent ~>ith the position of this board
within the last year.
Jack stated it was slightly flawed because it addressed all
power boaters and the Board of Fish's authority can only
address fishing from powerboats.
Dick asked regarding proposal 300, why do you need the board
of fish involved at all? Why isn't DNR involved? It has nothing
to do with fish allocation.
Jack stated it wasn't a Dept, of Fish and Game proposal.
Curt stated that the further some of these proposals get away
from dealing c~dth fish, the more it is our area of specialty.
Joe Connors stated the third proposal is 302, which institutes
limited entry for guides on the Kenai and Kasilof Rivers. Joe
asked Robert Begich if they had the authority to do this.
Robert Begich stated na, that they didn't have the statuary
authority to do this.
Jae stated limited entry was consistent with what the board
has wanted to do for years. It was what the working group 2
years ago wanted to do. This working group was appointed by
the Commissioner. If F&G doesn't end up dealing with limited
entry, we might need to deal with it with by some other
mechanism.
Jim Czarneski asked how proposal 302 fit in with the study
DNR has proposed, which looks at congestion an the river and
the court order.

Minutes -December 13, 2(107
Pege II of lA
142
Joe said the court order stated there ean be no moratorium and
no action to limit guides until a public impact study is
conducted and shows the need to do sa.
Jim stated the other was a moratorium rather than limited
entry.
Joe said the former director issued the moratorium. (Actually
farmer Acting Commissioner Marty Rutherford jes}
Robert stated that they don't have the information that says
they don't have the need yet. Therefore, the study is needed.
Bobby Jo asked who had statutory authority to do this.
Joe stated that either the constitution of the State of Alaska
would need to be changed or the legislature would need to pass
assrd enact Phis.
Jack stated right now all guides are under anon-competitive
use permit, which means there are an unlimited number of
permits. State parks does have competitive use permits, a
determination has to be made to fmd out if it is compatible with
the parks purposes and whether it is appropriate for the park
to have a limited number of certain things. That would be up
to the state parks to determine haw many guide vessels should
be an the river. Each application would need to be evaluated.
D. Discussion on Lang Term Care of the River and Its
fontiguous Habitats-Hahn
Dick stated there are approximately 18 different entities that
have official say in the care of the Kenai River and its
contiguous habitats. It is very difficult when you have all these
different groups that have a say in the river and that don't
agree on anything. Dick proposed a comprehensive plan far the
future of the river, having one plan and one manager.
E. Request to bor®ugh on 5®t't easements-aim Caarnesiti
Jim stated during the December 1St 2007 work session the
borough 50ft easement was discussed. There was discussion
on writing a letter to the borough asking for a request on the
update review of the 50 ft habitat ordinance and looking at
Kenai River Special Management Aren Advisory Board
- M3nufes-December 13, 2007
Page 12 of 14
143
what kind of action has been taken. Specifically, where have
there been violations and how have they dealt with those. Jim
proposed to move forward on writing the letter and determine
who should receive it within the borough.
Pam stated that Max Best and Mary Toll should receive the
letter.
Jim stated that he would help draft a letter for the chairs
signature.
Jack clarified this letter would be asking for a report on the
number, the type of violations, and the results of actions taken
within the SO ft habitat protection area within the KRSMA.
Joe made the motion to move.
George seconded the motion. There was no discussion.
Jaclt asked when the information is obtained what it would be
used far.
Jim stated it would be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the
50-ft protection area in regards to the river,
Jack asked for all those in favor.
The vote was unanimous.
F. Kenai Watershed Forum -Jim Czarnecki
Jinn commented the Kenai Watershed Forum would like to have
the board's audience to review the Kenai River baseline water
quality data. This is a monitoring effort that occurs every
spring in April and again in July at 21 sites up and doom the
river and on 10 tributaries. There is a MOU, which involves
mast of the agencies sitting at the table. This MOU has expired
and needs to be updated. The KWF would like tlxis group to
review the data for feedback in either February or March 2008.
This meeting would be 3 to 4 hours in length. The data has
been put in a database and is available online.

Jack stated the meeting with Jirn Czarneski and Robert Ruffner
regarding the water quality data, would be set for February I4~,
200$ from. 8:00 am to 11:30 pm.
V. ACTT®N I i EMS
VI. PUSLIC C®MNiENT
Adam commented that participating in the fishery is becoming
more difficult for the public and guides alike. The regulations are
displacing people, so only the elite are fishing the river.
Dwight Kramer stated that in the handout, Kenai Area
Fisherman's Coalition, there were concerns about crowding at the
boat launches. The Kenai Area Fisherman's Coalition would like
to work with KRSMA and the state to try to remedy this situation.
VII. ADJOURNMENT
A. Soard Comments
Jack stated on January 3rd 2008 at 6:U0 pm at the Kenai River
Center, the director wants to have a meeting with all advisory
board people statewide. The governor's budget came out and
there is $5 million in deferred maintenance.
On 17ecember 18, 2008 at 7:00-9:00 pm there will be a
