Dear Mayor and Council Members,
We are sure you have heard of the tremendous success of Central Area Rural Transit since
irnplementadon of services in Oetaber 2000. CARTS has delivered aver 338,600 rides since
then! Our aide statistics indicate the need in the central Kenai Peninsula area for transit services.
In addition, it brings in considerable Federal funding that would not otherwise be available for
the Kenai area; it provides jobs, and certainly stimulates economic development.
~FIe would Like to request a $S,OQO appropria±ion from the City of Kenai far this fiscal year. Our
performance to date cieariy indicates the need for rides for the community, and the benefit to
Kenai residents. The majority of rides delivered by CARTS have been for getting to and from
work, and many of those jobs have been in Kenai..
Thank you for considering this request. We will be happy to attend a budget wank session and
provide additional. information and materials.
Sincerely,
I y ` . ~ f . h..----'~

Central Area Rural Transit System, Inc. {CARTS)
A Community Solution for Public Transportation
2uG7
CARTS had another great year! We have delivered over 338,60$ rides overall.
Public transportation passengers are diverse: Work is the most popular destination for public
transit riders - 27% of CARTS riders are going back and forth to work. However, people use
public transit for other reasons as well- including getting to school or training, medical
appointments, shopping and recreational opportunities. The elderly and disabled represent 18%
of CARTS riders; youth 29% and adults 53%. A ride on CARTS is available to anyone. There are
no income or disability requirements.
Public transportation is subsidized throughout the United States. The discounted fare each
passenger pays, whether it is on CARTS or the subway in New York City, does not cover the true
cost of the ride. CARTS is only $2.50 per zone, which is usually about 113 the cost of taking a
cab.
CARTS has access to Federal and State funds that are set aside specifically for public
transportation. Local match is an important part of our funding puzzle. Passenger fares
comprise approximately 12%, local government 4%, state government l5 °/a, federal government
43%, and service contracts providing 26% of CARTS funding.
Every dollar invested in public transportation generates $6 or more in economic returns. CARTS
pays local providers to give rides. We have paid out over $1,850,000 dollars to local cab
companies and non profit agencies to deliver rides for us. Even non users benefit as a result of
public transit!
CARTS is for everyone!
A community solution for public transportation.

MEMO:
TO: City Council
FROM: Rick Koch
DATE: April 10, 2008
SUBJECT: Proposed Ordinance 2299»2008
The purpose of this correspondence is to discuss the above referenced proposed
ordinance and to state the administration's recommendations regarding provisions of the
proposed ordinance.
This ordinance addresses a number of specific requirements and I will address a number
of there below:
Increasing the size of accessory structures from one hundred twenty (120) square
feet to two hundred (200) square feet.
Administration's Comments: Administration does not oppose the increase in size
of accessory structures, with the understanding that building permits will continue
to be required for all accessory structures over 120 square feet.
No side or end of an accessory structure may be longer than sixteen (16} feet unless
the Building Official grants a waiver for good cause.
Administration Comments: Administration does not oppose this requirement
7
The minimum distance hetween an accessory structm•e and au adjoining lot is
increased from three feet (3') to five (5'),
Administration ~Onllnents: Administration recommends that accessory structures
one hundred twenty (12f1) square feet ih size and smaller be required to maintain a
minimum distance ofthree feet (3') from an adjoining lot, aatid that accessory
structures over one hundred twenty (1.26) square feet in size maintain a minimum
distance of five feet (S') from an adjoining lot.
Presently the code requires athree-foot minimum distance from an adjoining
property. As proposed, the ordinance requires five feet. This would in effect make
many accessory structures constructed to the current code requirement non-
conforming structures I don't thirilz we should do this. Admiivstiration suggests
leaving the three-foot distance for 120 s.f. structures and requirsng a five-foot
distance for larger structures. This will require an amendment to tMel~roposed
ordinance.
Setbacks, per development fables musC be maintained if the accessory structure is
tarter than two hundred (ZQh) square feet.
Administration Comments: Administration is not opposed to this requirement
Ror purposes of this section one (1}story in height is a maximum of sixteen feet (I6')
high as measured from the ground to the top of the peak of the roof.
Administration Comments: Administration. is opposed to this definition of "one
story'°. A height of sixteen feet world generally be considered to be at or near the
elevation of a two-story structure. A house of this elevation is significantly less
obtrusive on neigiiuoriirg properties as a result of set-back requirements. A
sixteen-foot high structure placed in near proximity to an adjoining property in a
residential neighborhood may well be considered a detriment to that adjoining
property. if a property owner wishes to construct an accessory structure greater in
height than the administration recommended twelve feet (12'), the variance
process noticing neighboring property owners is a more appropriate procedure.
I have attached the following photographs of structures sixteen feet in height for
comparison purposes:
1. Rear view of barn-roof accessory structure next to single-story house
2. Sixteen foot high garage door at Airports Operation Center
3. Front view of gambrel-roof accessary structure
4. Stacked conexes
In considering this issue arhninistration believes it is important for Council. to
'have a feel for the difference between a sixteen foot high (ar greater) structure
that is located fifteen to twenty feet away from an adjoining property and a
8
sixteen foot tali structure placed three to f ve feet away from an adjoining
property, and it's potentially negative effect.
!In amenditaent by Cnuiacil will required to reduce the allowable het~~hX corn
sixteen feet to tH~elve {eet.
In the event an amendment is offered eliminating the requirement for a building pern~t
for stzvetures in excess of 120 square feet, the administration is opposed to that chuige.
There are a large number of 1.20 square foot (or smaller} pre-manufactured storage
buildings for sale. Storage buildings greater than 120 square feet in size are generally nat
pre-manufactured, and a building permit should be required.
If you have any question please contact me at your convenience.

1?ear Mr. Koch,
First, please accept my apologies for not getting back to you sooner. A matter such as this had to
funnel through muttipte channels before we were prepared with. a response. We are still working
to improire our administrative peocesses to handte issues such aB this in a more expedient
manner.
I1ext, allow me to express my appreciation far your correspondence and aonsidsration retated to
the property in ftic ommsen Subdivision. 't'Lre prospect of acquirr`ng some of this Land has
generated considerable discussion for our Program Advisory Committee. I ani sure you can.
unde€stand that buitdistg hem versus our Last two locations {Inlet Vdaods and l~ighorrt Circle}
would cause us to completely retttirrk sonic of our strategy.
As an educational institution, AEC needs trr be building smatter homes in order to atlova us to
complete muttipte Names in the same school year. From this perspective, ~e R+lommsen
properties would be quite useful to us. t arrr sure rt is no surprise that our concerns about this
property relate to its proximity to Witdwood and the general condition of the neighborhood. In
that we rely heavily on the proceeds from the sate of our spec homes to finance our nonprofit
social enterprise, we a€e concerned atrout Belting new construction in this subdivision.
rilevertheless, we recognize the value of this opportunity and the generosity cat your consideration.
to get these properties at a price below accessed value. Below are answers drat address questions
raised in your previous Letter:
1. r~mundsen Educational C:enteris a vocational training school specializing in the education of
students from rural Alaska. we Have developed a residential construction grogram that fosters a
culturally relevant teams'ng environment and provides quality vocational instimction tit/C's
course offerings are authori~~d through the Alaska. Commission of Postsecondary Education to
provide graduates with. a Ist }>ear Certificate is Residential Constnacteon, and a 2nd year
Advanced Certificate in Residential Constmction. The program is designed to equip students
with the aptitude necessary to build a complete house together, W provide them with the tools to
deal wsth life's harks, and to become gainfiet}y employed upon comrrsencernent.
t'.Ct. P>>c*~: SiF€a' Sra Ydotspa. Afas~ksa 956t<s « {~3r~^} s€:£:-8ft4C nests;. ^ ~~lfi7}'26ff-b642 fax u,v,w~.~ecaR:.ar~s

The Name construction projects of the past three years represent much mare than the sum of #heir
parts far our students; they represent the prospect of a brighfer future. Thew Names are
etrnsidered "Houses of Hope" because they represent an infusion of hope rota the lives of each
student that participates in the construction process. By equipping young Alaska. S'3atives Grrztlx
wrprk-ready trade skills, ATC is preparing graduates to become economrcaiTy triable and
emplovabfe members of their cammuaxitias. I+flareawer, we are seeing an increase of our
graduates desiring to stay on the Central. Peninsula far employment.
Attached you will fend a. proposed schedute for the construction of the fast two homes during. the
2003-2009 sahoal year. C~rnstructian of the other 3 Names will be scheduled far 2t}09-201. i.
2. In thatit is in our best interests to ensure clean and ar°derly propertics far the sale of future
projects, I am confident that in c:aaperation with your office cve can agr~ upon appropriate
covenants that would satisfy bath of our interests. S. suggest that we meet to outline these
covenants.
3. Amundsen Educational Center is interested in the following five properties on Second St.:
I It30, 1102, 11€FA,1 If3&, 1 IU$ (parcel numbers 3910301 through 391€3305).
Regarding tSre second set ofquestions in your Setter:
1. AEC` is requesting a donation afthe above named properties. This mays would be extremely
beneficial to us in crux pursuit of reaohing self-sustainabiS.ity in the next five to seven years.
Z ~ 3, We recognize that. $22,908.76 is the sum of what is due an these 5 properties. Ff the City
is unable to accommodate a fuIl donation including paying Borough taxes and waiving city
assessments, perhaps the city would require as to pay the 14YB fixes but. waive the past due
assessments or some combination tixereaf. Tfit is necessary far us to cover the amounts due for
eaclx property (K.I'B andJar COK}, we would request the opportunity t€r subordinate these costs
until we sell the hotree built on each lot. According to sxaar nrajet:ted constru~tson cc(xed=ste, this
would provide the CUIC these funds by 2t31 t. l trust that we can. agree upon a legal structure for
the transfer of property and payment of past duo amounts that will satisfactorily address the
pertinent issues.
Once again, we greatly appreciate the cooperation of the City of Kenai tas discuss these issues
and present this opportunity. A1iC has greatSy appreciated wanking vx~tSx the city on our recent
projects. if given the chance with tlxesc tats, cve look forward to helping getting them back onto
ttxe tax rafts over the nex~k few years.
Sincerely,

Attn: Mrs. Kim Howard
Dear Mrs. Howard:
The following information regarding our proposed amended development plan is being submitted
pursuant to your request:
No. 1. Development Plan
Item C
Rreos to be cleared Very little clearing will be needed as this property was fully site graded
by the city after testing was completed in late 1596. There are a row of
trees along the north boundary of the property. We intend to retain as
many of these trees as possible during construction.
Landscooina Plan Please see the {andscaping plan submitted with the original lease
application. We wiiE make our lot conform esthetically with the
courthouse parking area on Lot 13.
Item E
Drainage & Snow Storage All areas around the proposed building will be paved to conform to the
parking requirement. Code compliant storm dra@ns will be installed and
tied into the city system to prevent runoff into city streets. Areas along
the north boundary of the building site will be used for snow storage.
Additionally, we have a snow storage lot across Trading Bay Drive that
can be utilized if needed. Snow v~titi be transported to this lot via loader
to minimize impact to city streets.
58
Zoning The subject lease property is located in the commercial business district
of the city adjacent to the Third !ud'sc'sal District Courthouse. The
proposed use conforms to the applicable code for this area of (CG).
Comprehensive Pton The proposed development appears to meet the goals set out in the
City's Comprehensive Plan dated Nov 5, 2003.

MOTION:
Commissiorier Hull MOVED to recommend approval of the draft ordinance to the
council, including the memorandum of City Manager Koch. Commissioner Beeson
SECONDED the motion.
The floor was opened for public hearing.
Dennis Gregorp -- Spoke in opposition to the ordinance, noting the following:
• Lack of advertising,
+ It would penalize residents one percent of the year and would be too
restrictive for handicap, elderly, and others.
• It could increase refuse left behind by campers since walking in/out and
increase traffic on dunes.
81
Will lead to more demand on enforcement duties and would be difficult to
enforce..
• The ordinance would not do what it was intended to do and encouraged
more time for advertising, observation, and input from the community.
Bob Peters, ®l@ Towa, Kenai -- Peters noted the following:
• Questioned why the ordinance was being proposed and asked if it would
be in effect year-round.
• The beach is used by a lot of folks, including driving the beach, and is a
real asset to the community.
• He opposed the ordinance and was of the opinion, it was too restrictive.
Rick Koch, City Manager, City of Kenai -- Koch noted the following:
• Agreed with some of Peters' remarks.
Reviewed administration`s action to address issues, i.e. additional
seasonal staff, fencing, signage, and staff coverage.
• Cited prohibitions already in place related to concerns of ATV use,
motorized traffic and destruction of dunes.
• Expressed concerns to where the vehicles would be displaced.
• Conflicts between commercial users and dip net fishers the past two
years had been minimal, he had not heard significant complaints from
camrnercial users, and most comments had been favorable.
Chuck Kopp, Kenai Chief of Police -- Comments included expanded police efforts
and data with regard to estimated participants, tickets and management practices.
Commissioner discussion followed, including the following comments:
• Percentage of local users versus outside the Kenai Peninsula.
• Number of permits issued by Fish 8v Game.
• Daily use estimates, frequency of complaints, enforcement ticke*_s issued,
and. management toms in place to address those issues.
• Concern that 97% of the participants live outside the community and due
to their lack of caring, ruin the beach use for local residents.
• Passage of the ordinance would not be the answer to the
problems/issues.
• Satisfaction with the dip net report and administration's level of effort
and direction.
Suggested forward thinking to relocate current Little League fields to
Section 35 and space from fields coukd be used or parking/camping.

The Administrative Assistant had I6 appointments pertaining to Senior Care Benefits,
Social Security, Medicare/Ivledicaid and. general senior related issues. We've had many
phone calls and inquires due to the IRS Economic Stimulus payment and the various
qualifications pertaining to seniors on Social Security.
A 2D08 Senior Services and Activities Survey was conducted during March. We are in
the process of compiling all the results. Once the results ax•e completed, a report will be
given.
Our seniors participated in the annual Senior Olympics at the Peninsula Mall. Soldotna
Senior Center won the overall traveling trophy however; our senior center brought home
quite a few medals; 7 bronze medals, 6 silver and 4 gold medals. A donation of a new
ping-pong table, from a senior client, was made to the senior center. The gift was to
encourage seniors to participate in the pins pong tournament at the Senior Olympics next
year.
Our Wellness Center is back. Central Peninsula Hospital has generously allowed their
"Healthy Lifestyle" coordinator to come and hold a clinic, We are very grateful to her,
and five seniors participated this month.
Two diagnostic screenings were held at the senior center this month. We partnered with
the Alzheimer's Association from Homer to perform memory screenings on individuals
as well as depression screenings sponsored by Central Peninsula Counseling Services.
Both of these opportunities were open to the public as well as seniors.
Instead of an Easter Dinner, the senior center held an Easter Brunch.
Reminder, April 20 is our Poi•txait Art Project Open Rouse. This will be held from
2:OOp.m. until 4:OOp.m. We hope the community will support and attend the open house
to view the senior portraits as wall as support the KPC art students that participated in the

RE: Vfi5 VIDEO REI=ORI3fPTG EQUIPII?ENNB"
During the NFarch 5 council meeting, the VHS video recording camera failed and
remains in that condition. In speaking with an employee of Dan's TV, I learned the
following:
• They service only equipment they sell.
• There may be a shopsn Anchorage that would have the parts, etc. to
repair the camera.
• Having the camera repaired, because of its age, map be difficult to do and
costly.
+ For approximately X300, a new camera to record directly to DVD could
be purchased.
City Manager Kach and I discussed the follou~ng issues:
+ The camera is the property of the Kenai Central High School (KCHS).
+ The agreement between the City and KCHS does not establish
responsibility for equipment repair, etc. as the City's (agreement attached).
+ With only three more council meetings before graduation and the end of
the school year, it may not be practical to have the equipment repaired and the
probability the equipment could. be repaired and. returned prior to the end of the
school year may be unreliable.
If a new DVD recorder camera is purchased, equipment would also be
needed to dub from DVD to VHS, the format required by the cable company.
+ Because of interest expressed in including funding in the new budget for
audio streaming council meetings, it may better to wait and address the issue during
budget work sessions.

MEMORANDUM ~"~"`~
TO. City Council
f"f
FROM: Larry Semmens, Finance Director f~~
THRU: Rick Koch, City Manager
DATE: April 10, 2008
SUBJECT: Investment Report
At March 31, 2008 the City had investments with a market value of 537,445,796. The breakdown of types
of investments held is:
US Agency Securities 535,083,137
AML Investment Poor $ 162,149
Bank Balance $ 2,200,51C
For coupon clippers and buy and hold investors like the City of Kenai, the current short-term bond market
is frustrating and riot vary attractive. The Federal Reserve has continued to cut rates and the market
believes there is mere to come. The securities in the portfolio, especially those fhat are not callable prior
to maturity, are gaining in value as interest rates decline. However, many of the securities in the portfolio
have call opf~ons in them, which means thaf the securty can be called. If the issuer can essentially
refinance the bond at a lower rate, the bond will be called. A premium is paid for this option in the form of
a higher coupon interest rate and it is usually significant enough to make the callable security attractive
compared to a security without call options. I have purchased some securities that are not callable, and
some with one time calls, and they Zook pretty good right now even though at the time of purchase the
yield was much tower than continuously capable securities. If (when) interest rates Increase signifcantly in
the future these securities may not look so good, The securities highlighted on the attached report are
those that are likely to be called in May. 1 wil have to reinvest the proceeds at considerably lower rates.
One peter ~tial change going forward is the establishment ofi new investment options for the airport
permanent fund. Some of the securities in the portfolio will have to be scld to implement the suggested
changes. For total return investors, those that seek both interest income and price increases in the
underlying security due to interest rate moves, this market provides good opportunities to sell. Many
securities'sn the portfolio have market values significantly above both cast and current book value. 1 added
anew column to the attached report that shows the unrealized gain or loss. The total is $432,530. I will
have to book the unrealized gain at June 30 due to accounting rules. However, unless the security Is sold,
the gain is paper only and it is hard to pave roads with paper gains. As I have said before, I do not agree
with generally accepted accounting principals regarding unrealized gains and losses. but 7 do comply with
them in financial reporting.
My base strategy of Investing is tc buy and hold. As cash is available I invest it at the best rates available
within ±he time frames ,necessary to meet cash flow needs, Qn a very infrequent basis I sell a security to
meet cash flaw needs or to increase yield by purchasing another higher yielding investment. If you have
any questions or comments about the City's investments please car,tact me. A copy of the portfolio is
attached.
