the ordinance and suggest modifications to the drafr. My understanding is the KEDS group may
also want to look at the impact of the ordinance to the business community.
The Administration recommends tabling this ordinance to give the Administration and the
Planning R. Zoning Commission time to work on changes to the ordinance. This would also
allow the KEDS group time to analyze the ordinance and make suggestions if it wishes.

DATE: February 23, 2006
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 2148-2006 -KMC 14.25 -Landscaping/Site Plan
The Commission voted to postpone action on the proposed amendment to KMC 14.25
and KMC 14.20.115(1) until administration could review concerns and suggest
modifications to the draft. This Ordinance is scheduled for public hearing at the Council
meeting on March 1 s`. The following concerns were noted:
1. KMC14.25.060 Completion -Concerned that lending institutions may not
grant loans to projects that cannot obtain a Certificate of Occupancy.
Vvouid like to consider issuing the Certificate of Occupancy and depend on
KMC 14.25.090 for enforcement.
2. KMC14.25.065 Completion -Same concern as above.
3. KMC14.25.080 Expiration -Would like to extend the expiration to one
year. Concern that with the short building season 180 days may not be
sufficient.
4. KMC14.25.045(d)1 -Paving. This is probably the largest concern of the
proposed ordinance. With the proposed ordinance, paving would be
required in all cases meeting the criteria outlined in the ordinance.
Administration gave the example of an addition to the City's maintenance
facility for a locker room that met the $50,000 criteria would require
paving. Discussion ensued as to whether or not in existing industrial sites
such as the City's yard should paving be required. Again, the question
was asked as to what dollar amount should require paving and whether or
not existing structures should be exempt from the ordinance.
Administration agreed to review these sections and discuss the issues with the City
Attorney. Proposed changes to the draft will be submitted to the Commission for further
consideration.

of techniques for achieving the intent of this section. The appropriate placement or retention of
vegetation in sufficient amount will provide the best results. Perimeter, interior, street right-of-
way, and parking lot landscaping should be included as components of the overall landscaping
plan.
(b) Perimeter/Buffer Landscaping. Perimeter(lruffer1andscaping involves the land areas
adjacent to the lot lines within the property boundary. This buffer landscaping serves to separate
and minimize the impact between adjacent uses. Buffer landscaping maybe desirable along the
perimeter of the property to shield vehicular or building lights from adjacent structures and to
provide a visual separation between pedestrians and vehicles. Landscaping adjacent to
residential zones shall have landscaping beds that meet all of the following minimum standazds:
1. Landscaping beds -Minimum of 10 feet in width along all property lines, which
adjoin residential zones, exclusive of driveways and other ingress and egress
openings. A 6-feet high wood fence or masonry wall maybe used in place of 5 feet
of the required bed width.

within all pazking lots and associated access drives. Parking lot landscaping serves to provide
visual relief between vehicle parking areas and the remainder of the development. It also is
desirable for the purpose of improving vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns.
(e) Street right-of--way landscaping softens the impact of land uses along street rights-of-
way, but does not obscure land uses from sight. Landscaping beds must meet all of the
following minimum standards; except where properties are adjacent to State of Alaska rights-of-
way, the Administrative Officer may approve alternatives, which meet the intent of this section
but protect landscaping from winter maintenance damage.

1. Introduction
The Challenger Learning Center of Alaska (CLCA) is a private, 5m(c) (3)
nonprofit corporation that opened in April 200o and is located in Kenai, Alaska.
It is the thirty-ninth of fifty-two centers in the Challenger Learning Center for
Space Science Education international network, a program created in 1986 by the
families of the astronauts lost in the Challenger 5i-L mission.
The purpose of the CLC network is to continue that crew's aim of engaging
students in the study of science, math and technology. Using space exploration
and its applications here on earth to capture the imagination of young people and
educators has proven benefits. The CLCA offers dynamic and exciting educational
programs that positively impact efforts in education reform.
A network of high technology spaceflight simulators enables students to apply
science and math concepts to real-life situations and problems. Each simulator
houses an operating hands-an madel of the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) Mission Control Center and a Space Life Station. CLCA
provides students and teachers with a unique educational experience. More than
just a day trip, their program is a simulation that begins in the classroom four to
six weeks prior to the mission date. In order to prepare their students, teachers
participate in a full day of training prior to presenting the program to their
classes.
Built with federal, corporate and private grants and donations, the CLCA is a
22,000 square-foot, high-tech facility with dorms and a full kitchen facility that is
entirely debt-free. It is truly amulti-purpose facility; as a learning center
available to all of Alaska and a local community meeting place. The entire
population of Alaska is considered a viable audience to be served by the CLCA
because of its unique technological capabilities. Considering the vastness of our
state and the geographical diversity of our sparse population, the CLCA offers a
solution in the application of modern technology, or e-Missions (through the
Internet).
The purpose of this business plan is to guide the CLCA management in its next
steps moving from a grant based formula to a business model of operation. It is
also a tool used to present information about the CLCA to potential donors.

2. Executive Summary of Plan
The Challenger Learning Center of Alaska (CLCA) is helping prepare a new
generation of astronauts, scientists and engineers. Completed in 2000, the CLCA
has focused energy toward the development of outstanding educational math,
science and technological programs with great success. The facility, initially
constructed with funds from grants and donations, is debt-free and has enjoyed
the utilization of operational program grants to subsidize their market-driven
discounted prices for services. The received program grants have enabled the
successful completion of over 90o simulated space missions serving over 3i,ooo
students from across the state of Alaska.
Current grants are scheduled to expire, and the CLCA is re-invigorating the initial
financial support from corporate, community and private donors to continue to
offer the discounted product prices. We have also established an Endowment
Fund with the intent to eventually utilize the earnings from the endowment to
supplement the discounted pricing program.
Immediate needs for the CLCA are to control operating costs, raise funds, and
effectively market programs. The new Executive Director, Larry Porter, has
committed to volunteering his services for a minimum of two years to direct the
programs and manage the business in this transition from grant-based subsidies
to a business model of operations.
The long term goal for the CLCA is to be a more self-sustaining enterprise.
Corporate, community and individual donations will always be necessary to
underwrite the discounted program costs if the CLCA is to effectively compete
with other educational programs that schools can spend their extracurricular
ixivnieS on. Bnt v~ui uic cni~uuF-j Programs to uu~' ir1 p1a.;G, u1e new et1V1 tJ lrl
operational efficiency and a focused marketing approach should allow the CLCA
to realize the majority of their operating income in the form of revenue for
ser~rices performed.
g. Mission and Strategies
3.x Vision
Every year, every school in Alaska will have experience with the CLCA through its
missions, e-Missions, school bus to space, and workshops. The CLCA will be a
self-sustaining enterprise engaged in active and productive partnerships with
schools and businesses.
g.z Mission
The mission of the CLCA is to inspire students to study science, math and
technology in a dynamic, hand-on space exploration environment. Through the
medium of space science education, students are encouraged to pursue higher
educational goals and opportunities that will better prepare them for success.
3.3 Current Objectives
• Maintain strength of K-12 educational programs that provide a strong
content of math, science and technology and are delivered in a method
that is relevant and appealing to young people.
• Raise funds and donations of in-kind services and products to continue to
offer discounted programs and services to Alaska's students.
• Strengthen the Board with active participants from various disciplines that
bring enthusiasm, diverse backgrounds and varied relationships to help
develop the business and raise funds and in-kind donations.
•:> Recognize and re-establish relationships with business partners who had
contributed funding or in-kind donations in the Host.
• Develop new relationships with business and community partners to
strengthen and expand the donor base.
• Raise the profile of the CLCA to heighten awareness of its programs in
public and private schools statewide, and increase recognition of the
benefits of these programs to potential donors.
• Develop the donor base through a program of contribution request mail-
outs and "tele-thou" follow up phone calls by Board members and
volunteers.
^:• Identify and pursue potential grant opportunities.
3.4 Strengths and Challenges
The CLCA has great strengths yet many challenges to address. In order to move
to a business model of operation, the CLCA plans to:
Suild on Key Strengths
• The use of space exploration as an educational medium and the focus on
benefiting children has appeal to active and potential supporters.
• A $'7 million dollar debt free facility allows every dollar donated to benefit
programs and children with no funds going to debt service.
<:• Distance delivery and on-site educational programs are in place and well
developed.
• Over 35,000 children (~ooo per year), 3o school districts and 200 schools
have been served by the CLCA programs.
• The relationship with the national Challenger Learning Center Space
Science Education program brings resources and support at the national
level.
•:• The CLCA has a small group of employees for core competencies and
access to part-time flight directors who are only utilized as program
commitments require, allowing for reduced personnel operating costs.
• The new Executive Director is a committed volunteer who brings a fresh
leadership direction focused on delivering services in an operational
business model versus agrant-based non-profit model.
• An endowment fund which enables donors' contributions to give in
perpetuity has been established with the Alaska Community Foundation;
the goal of this endowment is to eventually have a sufficient investment
base that the earnings can supplement the discounted pricing of programs.
Resolve Internal Challenges
• As the final phase of an operational subsidy grant from NASA is complete,
limited funding is available to continue operations and must be replaced
by additional revenue, donations and other grants.
<:• Operational expenses must be controlled by the continued utilization of
volunteer labor and in-kind donations of supplies and ser~~ces.
•:< Programs must be effectively marketed to all public, private and home
school students keep the facility at capacity year-round and allow for
continuous and smoothed monthly revenue.
• Business and community relationships must be re-established and
cultivated for the donor base to become active again.
Fully Utilize External Opportunities
•:• The new Executive Director brings a network of relationships which has
already strengthened the donor base of contributions and in-kind
donations.
•:• Recruitment of new high profile Board members will enhance the support
system for the CLCA management team and create new opportunities for
marketing and fundraising.
•:• Re-establishing the focus on marketing E-missions to serve remote schools
eliminates their travel costs and increases the demand and resulting
revenue for this program.
• Further promotion and marketing of the corporate training programs will
raise the profile of this program and increase demand and revenue.
• The CLCA focus on education and children is supported. by President
Bush's American Competitiveness Initiative and No Child Left Behind Act
which expands state science and math standards and makes the CLCA
programs desirable to schools.
Work through External Challenges
• The CLCA location in Kenai is not readily accessible to Anchorage or all of
Alaska and school funding cut-backs impacts travel budgets for schools
(which is typically at least half of the cost for each onsite mission).
• Anchorage School District policy will only allow school buses to transport
students for missions which eliminates the opportunity to have
transportation donated by tour bus companies to reduce the cost of the
mission/field trip.
• There is Competition with other facilities and programs for grhnnl fielri
trips and the CLCA needs to heavily promote the educational aspect of
their programs.
• The current pricing structure of products and services represents a heavy
discounting of actual costs to remain competitive with other programs. In
order to maintain the program of offering discounted services, operating
costs must continue to be subsidized by donations or grants until the
endowment is fully funded and the earnings generated are used as the
subsidy.

5
Business Strategies
>:• Raise the profile of the CLCA to improve sales of products and services to
extend product ranges and/or served markets.
• Control operating costs by increasing in-kind contributions of products
and services such as utilities and professional consulting.
>:• Stabilize and strengthen financial position with increased sales,
contributions and memberships.
• Utilize new leadership, Board members and business/community partners
to develop assertive and realistic long term business initiatives.
• Continue exploring grant and government organizations embedding
opportunities.
Present Status
Background
The development of the Challenger Learning Center of Alaska was built on a
strong foundation of partnerships and volunteers. The Kenai City Council, Mayor
and city administration, the Alaska Aerospace Development Corporation (AADC)
and a group of dedicated volunteers brought the CLCA to actuality. The
construction funding in the amount of $6.5 million, provided through NASA
grants and supported by Senator Stevens, made the building a reality. An
additional grant of $2 million funded the construction of the dormitory.
Initially there was great interest and momentum in developing a donor base of
business and private partnerships and 'individual memberships. But tremendous
focus on developing the educational programs and getting kids through the door
consumed staff s time and energy. While the CLCA was successful in delivering
outstanding programs, in the immediacy of getting the programs operational the
relationships with corporate and community partners were not nurtured.
In order for the CLCA to offer its programs and services with competitive pricing,
a process of supplementing the revenues with grants and contributions was
implemented which allowed for the prices to be-discounted. A $600,000
operational grant which has subsidized the CLCA is due to expire soon, and the
CLCA is focusing energy and efforts on its base of corporate and private donors to
offset the completion of this grant subsidy.
Recent Progress
The CLCA has recently brought on board a volunteer Executive Director who
brings strong community and corporate relationships along with a background of
successful and effective business management. The new leadership's focus on
managing the CLCA as a business and developing its self-sustainabilitt~ is clear.
Support from the new Kenai Peninsula Borough Mayor and community and
business leaders reinforces that the community of Kenai maintains its initial
enthusiasm for the success of the CLCA.
The CLCA also re-established contact with previous corporate donors and
contacted potential donors by sending out over 50o fundraising letters. This is
being followed up by personal phone calls. A $io,ooo request from the Carol
Treadwell Foundation has been granted in the form of an annual recognition to
the winners of the Anchorage School District Science Fair by bringing them to the
CLCA for a mission. ConocoPhillips has generously provided a challenge
donation in the amount of $25,000; they will match the first $25,000 that the
CLCA raises. Alaska Aerospace Development Corporation (AADC) is supporting a
strong base of volunteers providing CLCA with administrative and management
assistance. The community of Kenai is pledging support through in-kind services.
The CLCA is gaining state-wide recognition through the Arctic Winter Games and
Channel 2news-spots.

and AS 4.11.480, 4.21.080(10), and 15 AAC 104.145(b) through (g)].
Attached is a letter from the Kenai Peninsula Borough stating its desire to withdraw its
objection to the renewal and stating the licensee has brought the tax delinquencies in

PAGE 4
Council Member Moore MOVED for approval of Resolution No. 2006-15 and Council
Member Swarner SECONDED the motion.
Bob Peters, Old Town, Kenai -- Referring to Council Member Boyle's comments
regarding the sale of City property, noted he felt the concern was not with retaining
the property for the future but for getting a fair deal. Peters indicated he came before
Council previously to say it was not a good idea to sell all the property in Kenai but
rather keep it for the next generation. Peters added he felt the property may be ideal
for an assisted living facility.
There being no other public wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed.
Council Member Swarner stated she disagreed with Peters and noted her pleasure the
lots would be out of City ownership and onto the property tax rolls. Swarner recalled
the costs to the city in getting the properties back.
Swarner expressed concern with the clause stating "with a 10% discount for cash" as
it appeazed the price of $317,000 would be reduced by ten percent (10%) if paid by
cash. Attorney Graves stated the price of $317, 000 was inclusive of the ten percent
discount and suggested the clause be changed to "which includes a 10% discount for
cash."
M^vTION TO AMEYvT:
Council Member Swarner MOVED to amend Resolution 2006-15 to change the clause
"with a 10% discount for cash" to "which includes a 10% discount for cash." This
clause is found in the first, second, and last pazagraph of the resolution. Council
Member Boyle SECONDED the motion.
VOTE ON AMENDMENT:
*Student Representative Krusen: Yes
Massie Yes Ross Yes Mollo Yes
Bo le Yes Porter Yes Moore Yes
Swarner Yes
MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
Moore made the following comments:
• He received a lot of input on this resolution and the one positive note was
- that when sold at would put the property on the City's tax rolls.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
APRIL 5, 2006
PAGE 5
• He is concerned there was not a more recent appraisal for the property.
It was noted the value of the property was based on an appraisal made in 2000.
• Based on the last appraisal date, he questioned whether or not the
asking price for the lots was realistic and felt the City should wait to sell the lots until
a new appraisal is acquired.
• He noted the previous sale to this developer of property in the back
portion of the subdivision was made with conditions utilities be installed which may
have been done. However, no other development had been made and he would hate to
see the front lots go undeveloped for any extended period of time.
• He indicated those in the neighborhood want to see the lots developed as
it would increase their property values.
• He would not support the resolution, however, did not want to vote it
down.
Council Member Ross agreed with Moore related to the appraisal and added, he would
not support the resolution without a more recent appraisal.
MOTION TO TABLE:
Council Member Moore MOVED to table Resolution 2006-15 until a current appraisal
on the subject property is available to review. Council Member Ross SECONDED the
motion.

• The difference in the budgeted figure of $8,000 and the bid total of

to the five-year projected maintenance program and was the cost to only paint the
building; the bid amount of $67,550 represented stripping and painting.

approximately ten feet, and all slash disposed of.
• In the C areas, only the dead trees would be tazgeted.

piles, when there is adequate snow cover they will be burned. The logs will be left in
place on the ground with the exception of one area by Episcopal Church where would
be removed.

would take more than one yeaz project as other areas needing attention will be
identified.

community the same.

field or the property in Old Towne.

ITEM J: REPORT OF THE MAYOR -
Mayor Porter reported the following:
• Asked if Council had any objection to writing a letter of support to
designate funds to the United State Coast Guazd budget for a navigational risk
assessment of the Cook Inlet. Moore expressed concern that inviting the study may
affect the community. There were no objections to signing the letter.
• There is a new business in Kenai called Kenai Restorations; they will
repair antique furniture and are located in the old Napa building. An open house is
scheduled for Apri16~ from 4 to 7 p.m. to which Council was invited.
• Asked if there were any objections to scheduling a work session with City
Manager Koch to discuss the direction of the City of Kenai. Swarner suggested it be
scheduled for 6 p.m. prior to the next Council meeting on April 19~. There were no
objections.
• There have been several people off Angler Drive very concerned about the
LID issue and the fact they have to go through so much effort to get a petition readied
and after six months have it expire. Administration indicated the six months was not
dictated by ordinance and was merely a policy of the City. Attorney Graves noted,
although there was no deadline for a petition, because of property turnover, it had
always been six months and work will begin on rewriting the LID portion of the code to
modernize it and one issue that will be dealt with is providing better guidance on the
duration of a petition. Porter suggested the duration be changed to one yeas.
• Requested a report related to an event center and Public Works Manager
La Shot noted, a proposal would be forthcoming from the Denali Commission.
• She has been working with Kaleidoscope, an elementary school for arts
and science, who are interested in putting a revolving art display in City Hall or in the
Council Chambers.

Station #3 at the dock. The bid package is being reworked and it should be finalized
before the next Council meeting.
• The rewrite of KMC, Title 21, Chapters 5 through 10 related to airport
leasing was forwarded to the Airport Commission for their review and comments. It
was also reported, copies of the amendments were also forwazded to the Kenai
Economic Development Strategy (KEDSj for review.
• He will contact Tim Dillon with the Arctic Winter Games to arrange a
meeting with their Boazd of Directors to discuss the possibility of being reimbursed fog
the overtime expenses incurred by the City during the Games.

• He has not had the opportunity to look at the property damage on bluff,
however, he reviewed the paperwork and planned to prepare a report for the next
council meeting.
• Letters sent to the federal and state delegation regarding congressional
grant requests were included in the packet.
• He received an email regarding SB-247 and it appeared to be the vehicle
with the most traction for Municipal Revenue Sharing and it also deals with PERS.
The revenue sharing seemed to be the same in all of the bills that are out there and it
would mean about $75,000 to the City of Renai.
• He made contact with Senator Green's office, the Co-Chair of Finance,
and was informed that SB-247 would not be scheduled for a couple of weeks. PERS is
handled differently in this piece of legislation and the dollaz numbers might change
but the logic behind it would not. A brief discussion took place related to the bill and
the unfounded liability.
• An accounting of empty buildings would be taken and letters sent to the
building owners.
• He met with Environmental Conservation in Anchorage and they stated
support of fording new wells rather than providing treatment to current wells.
K-2. Attorney -- Attorney Graves reported:
• The changes to Title 21 that went to the Airport Commission and KEDS
deal with the property in the Airport Reserve. He is now working on Chapter 15 which
is the airport property outside the reserve. The changes to Chapter 15 will not be as
comprehensive as Tz*1e 21 ..,rad these cha:ages ShQUid be d:Suebuted tv Staff iute next
week. These items were separated so they were more manageable. Council will be
provided an information copy.
K-3. City Clerk -- No report.
ITEM L: DYSCUSSION
L-1. Citizens -- None
L-2. Council
Moore -- • The Library is conducting a community survey and he encouraged
Council to participate.
• Has no problem with extending the life of a petition but is concerned
about the length because of situations where property owners have changed and the
new owners may be unaware of an assessment for an LID on their property. The City
needs to be awaze of that if it extends out beyond a year.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
APRIL 5, 2006

Swarner -- • Will not be able to attend the Airport Commission meeting on April
13.

Kornfield.
The work session was called to order at approximately 6:00 p.m.
ITEM 1: Overview of FY 2007 Budeet
City Manager Koch noted:
• The FY2006 budget was balanced; at year-end, a $600,000 deficit was
projected (due to capital improvements).
• The proposed FY2007 budget has a planned deficit of $367,000; there
are no new programs or employees in the FY 2007 budget.
• He reviewed potential positives that could happen before the budget is
adopted, i.e. health insurance (a new carrier is being considered which would include
a $170,000 reduction); municipal revenue sharing amount of $75,000 may be
approved by the Legislature through SB247; Borough property tax assessments are
higher and may generate additional tax revenue.
• A negative would be the PERS costs.
Finance Director Semmens provided an overview of the draft budget, providing
handouts, and indicating changes from FY 2006 budget, etc.
%TEM 2: Topics for Discussioa:
2-a. PERS -- Opting elected officials out of PERS -- Semmens explained, the risk
for the city is one of anon-vested member of PERS; exposure is in Tiers 1, 2 or 3.
Council requested the resolution, previously tabled, be returned to council for
consideration.
2-b. Shore Fishery Lease Terms -- Referring to information included in the packet,
discussion took place related to council consideration in increasing lease charges for
shore fishery leases and whether the increase should be based on market value of the
lease. Changes to the leases can be made every ten years when the leases come up for
renewal.
Mr. 8s Mrs. Johnson -- Commented the value of the fish fluctuates; some catch more
fish than others; believe it would be unfair; does not believe putting the sites to bid
would be workable; and, the leaseholders' investments in the fishery are large.
Jim Butler -- Believes the value of the sites have many variables and it is important to
understand the risk for the operators in the azea is substantial.
Discussion continued and administration was requested to obtain information from
the Kenai Peninsula Borough prior to bringing the issue back to council consideration.
2-c. Charging fees for administration of grants.
Administration was requested to provide an ordinance to amend the code providing an
option of whether an administrative fee is chazged depending to the type of grant.
3-d. Bond propositions -- Council consensus was discussion should begin related
to roads, library, etc., putting together a package, however placing a bond proposition
on a ballot would be premature.
3-e. Airport property improvements -- Attorney Graves noted the new Title 21,
which will be considered by council in the near future, includes a mechanism for
development costs in the new leasing provisions.
3-f. Gsaat writing -- A brief discussion took place in which it was noted, currently
there was no provision to include a grant writer on staff. However, if need is required,
a consultant could be considered for a specific project.
3-g. Federal Lobbying -- No discussion.
?-h. l'rvj.°.^e.t .~.°vt°VZ't -- it was notL''d, uic request tvr .~p~,.civv W3S not iniiuded n't uae

ITEM 5: PUELIC HEARINGS
5-a. PZ06-23 -- An application for a Conditional Use Permit for a Drilling
Permit for the property described as Tract A, Autumn Subdivision (500
Childs Avenue) Kenai, Alaska. Application submitted by Charles A.
Underwood, Jr. of Marathon Oil Company, P.O. Box 196168, Anchorage,
Alaska 99519-6168.
Kebschull explained the following:
• The application for a Conditional Use Permit was submitted to authorize
the drilling of two new gas wells.
• The drilling site is located at 500 Childs Avenue near the intersection of
Beaver Loop and Bridge Access Road.
• An eight-foot security fence and a visual buffer of trees enclose the 4.77
acre parcel.
• The proposed site has been an existing gas production site since 1981;
two previous Conditional Use Permits were issued to Union Oil (Unocal) for this
location; gas production was suspended from this pad prior to the exchange of
properties to Marathon Oil in 1994; and, the facility has been maintained but
remained iri suspended status.
• The wells will be drilled to a depth of approximately 8,150 feet; the
drilling rigs have hospital type mufflers for the engines to help eliminate noise as well
as OSHA approved strobe lights in place of back-up beepers for vehicles.
• The property is zoned IH -Heavy Industrial. The land around this pazcel
is vacant and it does not appear the value of the adjoining property and neighborhood
would be impaired by the proposed use.
• The proposed use is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan.
r g Y__p......
- There are rav "ubiiC aa%ilitieS Scavara uai5 area aa'ld tl'ae `au vacd uSc w;ll
not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfaze.
• Staff recommends approval with the following requirements:
-- The applicant obtains state and federal permits including but not
limited to ADEC for temporary drilling waste storage and a permit from DNR for
temporary water use.
-- Ensure equipment has OSHA approved noise eliminators.
-- After the 15-day appeal period, obtain a Drilling Permit from the
City of Kenai.
Chair Eldridge opened the public hearing.
Chick Underwood, Marathon Oil, 3201 C Street, Suite 800, Anchorage, Alaska --
Mr. Underwood noted the following:
• Marathon had assumed operatorship from Uncsoal in 1994 and has
focused most of their activity at what is referred to Cannery Loop No. 1. Pad.
• This pad is located on the south side of the river accessed from Cannery
PLANNING 8c ZONING COMMISSION MEETING -
APRIL 12, 2006
PAGE 2
Road and approximately ten wells have been drilled on that pad and the available
space for new drill wells is about maximized.
• Recognizing the gas being produced extends further to the north justifies
the reactivation of what is considered Cannery Loop No. 3 Pad.
• There are two targets identified for drilling and the plan is to drill back to
back if possible. Based on the success of those two wells, Mazathon may come back
to drill additional wells in the future.
Evaluations have been made for redrilling using the existing well bores
and because of the structural location of the gas, it is better to drill a new well.
However, based on the success of the new wells, the former well bores may be re-
entered if they can structurally reach the horizons that have the gas.
• New production equipment will be installed ira the existing bualding
because everything was basically removed when Marathon assumed operatorship.
• There is an existing underground pipeline used previously and gas can
be routed for industrial or utility use. The line has been tested and it is competent so
no additional testing is required.
• The control room is being rebuilt and there will be an unmanned office,
however, there will be alarm systems tied into Marathon's monitoring system which is
based at the Kenai Gas Field located seven miles south of the City. There is also a
pager alarm system that Marathon operators carry; these will sound when there is an
alarm at any location.
• Drilling is estimated to last 30 days at the maximum and at the
completion of drilling, the well will be tested and there will be no flaring of gas.
Minimal testing will take place and the preference is to tie that into a production
system and get it online. Marathon is aware the City does not allow any flaring with
the City limits.
• Drilling waste will be captured in steel tanks which is removed by
vacuum trucks and taken to the Kenai Gas Field. Mazathon has a permitted process
where they separate out the sand and gravel from the drilling waste. It is washed and
teSteCl and if it F7a38e3 Criteria eStabii3jicd by ADEC u en it w;ll be reused. .° :y
material that does not pass a heavy metal and hydrocarbon test will be used as fill in
areas where approved.
• Marathon does not use an on-based drilling mud system; it is all water-
based. There is nothing of a harmful nature that is used during the drilling process.
Any wastewater generated will be captured and taken offsite. The drilling contactor
has holding tanks on their brake trailers and the gray water is taken away by a
qualified hauler to an approved disposal site. There is no discharge whatsoever on
site.
During Commission discussion, Underwood noted the following:
• There are no permits required from the Borough; the only regulation is
from the ADEC and it has to meet the criteria that there are no heavy metals or
hydrocarbons. The material will be used as fill on their pads and nowhere else.
• H2S is normally found with oil production and the H2S amounts were
almost too small to measure and was not an issue.
• Asked if there would be any gas leak detection equipment, Underwood
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION MEETING
APRIL 12, 2006
PAGE 3
stated sniffers would be placed at the point where the cuttings come out of the well.
They will also have mud-loggers who are well-site geologists and monitor the mud and
its properties at all times.
• There have been no incidents with this rig since beginning operation in
2001.
• If there were a blowout, Marathon would want to control it as quickly as
possible by using a diverter which diverts gas away from the rig to control the
pressure.
• During drilling, personnel will be there 24-hours a day; in the production
mode the closet operator could be there within ten minutes; a facility is not left idle
and operators make periodic rounds during the day checking pressures, reading
instruments, checking for leaks, etc.; when production begins at a facility there is
someone usually there 24-hours a day for at least the first week until it appears that
everything is stable; and, if all goes well with the drilling, production of these wells will
not begin until the latter part of this year.
• Asked if Marathon owns the high-pressure gas line on Bridge Access
Road, Underwood stated he believed they did; there is a mandatory monitoring
program in place where they run a smart pig that has recording devices that show the
wall thickness of pipe and it evaluates any corrosion; and, because it is a high
pressure line, it is a very critical issue and at this point they have not detected
anything, however, because the Kenai-Kachemak pipeline ties into this pipeline it is
regulated under DOT standards.
• There is no electronic security at the moment but with the start-up of
activity, there have been a lot of visitors asking questions about what is going on so a
full-time guazd has been hired; a person will be present in a guard capacity for 24-
hours aday during drilling; at the conclusion of drilling and at the end of the work day
the gates will be closed and locked; and, Marathon also has rovers who make rounds
throughout the day and night.
• Mazathon would be happy to arrange a tour for the Commission at any
time.
There being no other public wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed.

5-b. P7.06-24 -- An application to rezone the parcels known as Lot A-land Lot
A-2, Baron Park Subdivision from Split zoning (Light Industrial and
General Commercial) to General Commercial. Application submitted by
Rick R. Koch, City Manager, Kenai, Alaska.
Kebschull explained the following:
• The City of Kenai is requesting the rezone to eliminate asplit-zone
situation of the properties known as Lots A-1 and A-2 Baron Pazk Subdivision No. 6.
• The parcels are being replatted to create one large parcel for the
proposed Lowe's store.
• Retail uses aze permitted in both zones.
• Staff recommends the property be rezoned from Split Light Industrial to
General Commercial.
• The Comprehensive Plan identifies the area as Airport Industrial; the City
has recently completed a supplemental plan for the Airport and it is in the
implementation stages; and, these properties aze not included in the proposed airport
reserve and are not being recommended by that plan to be reserved strictly for airport
use.
• As the requested rezone meets the criteria of KMC 14.20.270, staff
recommends approval.
There were no public comments.

Monthly Report
April 12, 2006
Air Fair Update: The 6`h Annual Kenai Peninsula Air Fair and Fun Flight is scheduled
for Saturday, May 13`h. The Experimental Aircraft Association fundraising breakfast,
aviation swap meet and fun flight registration is from 8-11:OOam at the Soldotna Airport
with events moving to the Kenai Airport at fpm. The USAF Band "Top Cover" will be
providing entertainment, with a Military Appreciation Event at 2pm. The barbeque is
sponsored by Arctic Barnabas Ministries and there will be several aircraft static
displays. The poster has been designed and is being printed along with the souvenir
tshirt. The air fair is also being promoted at the Aviation Trade Show in Anchorage on
May 7 & 8, by the Airport and the FAA Flight Service Station.
FAA Certification Inspection: The annual FAA Airport Certification Inspection was
conducted on April 3 - 5, 2006. The inspection determines compliance with Title 14
Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Part 139, the Airport Certification Manual and the
Airport Operating Certificate. Four discrepancies were noted in the report; two of these
were outages of FAA owned and maintained lighting, one noted the need for additional
tree removal on the southwest end of the airport and the anal discrepancy was under
the handling and storage of hazardous materials (fueling operations). The newest
tenant conducting fueling operations on the airport (Air Supply Alaska} received the best
marks in the inspection. All of the compliance issues were minor and will be corrected
promptly. During the out brief the FAA Inspector complemented the airport on many
aspects of operations and maintenance and was particularly impressed with the Fire
Department training program and record keeping. The KFD training officer will be
invited to present a class on training and record keeping at the next FAA Alaska Airports
Conference. This is a significant accomplishment and Chief Tilly, Assistant Chief
Baisden and Training Officer Coon deserve special recognition for their efforts.
Projects: The Taxiway project will kick off with paving as soon as weather permits and
the runway/float plane water lane extension will go out to bid the end of May. The
security projects, gates and cameras, are complete and the closeout documents have
been submitted to FAA. Kudos to Jan Taylor in Public Works for getting those
documents together and ready for submittal.

Monthly Report For April 19, 2006
Keith Kornelis, Public Works Manager
Well House 2: West Coast Filters is going to do a pilot study for color removal at WH 2. They are
scheduled Yo be here April 24 to do both this and another arsenic removal pilot study on WH 4. If we can
find an acceptable way to remove color (or tannins) from our water we wil! consider another well near
WH 2. Another high producing well with a new transmittal water main could meet our needs.
New Well House 4: I have applied for athree-year extension of compliance for meeting the new 10 ppb
arsenic MCL for WeII Houses 1, 3, and 4. ADEC said that we are way ahead of everyone else in the
state and they do not have the forms and procedure ready for handling this. West Coast Filters,
Filtronics, Severn Trent, Kinetico, Basin Water, and Pureflow Filtration Systems are all interested in
providing arsenic removal treatment for our wells. There are many new methods of treatment going on
the market and new improved filter medics every month. This should bring the capital and operation and
maintenance costs down.
Kenai Bank Stabilization and Coastal Trail: I am working with the Corps and their consultant.
Set Net Drive & McCollum Drive / Aliak Drive LID's: Set Net and McCollum/Aliak LID are ready for
engineering and construction. The cost estimate for each project is on the high side with a 20%
contingency because of the high cost and unpredictable unit price of asphalt.
Kenai River Special Manaoement Area: The KRSMA board meeting is on April 13. Guide Academy
Report, Guided Advisory Committee, Horsepower Clarification of Resolution and Discussion, Boa4 Wake
Study update, Bridge Update, and Chugach Electric Association Cooper Lake project are on the agenda.
-' Town Clock: There is still over $10,000 (with more anticipated) in project funds for completing the
landscaping, sidewalks, benches, lights, and metal plaques. With the mayor's help, I am ordering the
two plaques for the clock.
State Legislative Grant -Joint Municipal Water & Sewer System Analysis: This $50;000 grant is to
"Update and Improve the City of Kenai Water System Study with consideration for extending the system
to neighboring areas." It will be used to update Nelson's Water System Study dated March 28, 1994.
Boating Facility Launch Ramp: Peninsula Construction is working on the two new launch ramps,
which should be completed by July 1.
Boatino Facility Exit Road & Sale of City Wetlands: The city is still working on the land trade with The
Conservation Fund for the boating facility exit road. There is no money appropriated to construct this exit
road.
New Street Lights: Public Works is compiling a list of requested new streetlights for city streets. HEA
has been given a PO for furnishing and installing wood pole streetlights. There is a PO to Kachemak
Electric, for council approval this meeting, for new poles and fixtures at the Visitors Center parking lot
lights.
Dock Leases: The city manager and city attorney have been working with Copper River Seafoods,
CRS, concerning station number 3, which is the station for which we did not receive any bids. The city is
not going to lease station 3 unless we receive the $20,000 minimum listed in the bid specifications. CRS
`:was concerned that the city might lower the minimum bid for station 3.
Dust Control: The bid opening for Rental of Asphalt Distributor Truck and furnishing CSS-1 for dust
control is May 10. The resolution to award this should be ready for council consideration at the council
meeting of May 17.

Corey Hall and Mary Jo Joiner attended the Public Librazy Association meeting in
Boston in March.
Mary Jo Joiner has met with Peter Klauder three times this month to review the needs
assessment, define program adjacencies and to determine the maximum size of any
expansion on the existing lot.
Distribution mechanisms for the library survey are still under discussion with the
Commission and the Board of the Friends. An online version of the survey may be posted
on the library web site.
A subcommittee of the Board of the Friends has been working to identify possible
members of a Steering Committee for Fundraising and to define their mission, or charge.
In addition to the annual state grant application, Julie Niederhauser and Mary Jo Joiner
wrote a grant proposal for $15,000 to not only enhance, but greatly enlarge our foreign
language selection. Grant notifications will be made in June.
The City of Kenai draft budget for Fiscal Year 2007 presents a library budget that has
already been cut by approximately $23,000. The book budget alone has already been
reduced by $5,000. A further cut of $9,500 from the book budget would be a 20%
reduction.
The Alaska State Library recommends that a library collection should increase by 5%
each year. For a collection size of 70,000 approximately 3,500 books should be added to
the collection each year. The same number should be weeded out of the collection. At an
average cost per book (I 989 figures) of $17 that would amount to an annual materials
budget of $59,500. The January 2006 issue of Library Journal reports that the national
average share of a librazy's operating budget devoted to books is 15% while the
American Library Association reports a 224% rise in the cost of books since 1984. A
recent national study on public perception of libraries showed that borrowing print books
is the top library activity for information consumers and that books aze overwhelming
seen as the library's `brand'.
April is National Poetry month. Family Story Time will feature a Poetry Safari on April
30 at I p.m. Cazol Ford and other guest readers will share their favorite poems. The April
2 Family Story Time featured classic folk and fairy tales. On Saturday, Apri122 at 2 p.m.
David Titus a string storyteller will read and give hands-on demonstrations. On Monday,
April 24 the Mental Health presentation features a history of native healing in Alaska.
The library will be closed on Sunday, April 16 for Easter.

RE: Monthly Report -March 2006
The Arctic Winter Games was the fiighiight of ie~Iarch and much of our departmental effort was
given to the preparation, delivery, and wrap-up of the games. There were no problems noted at
the ConocoPhillips/City of Kenai Multi-Purpose Facility. The ice maintenance contractor did an
exceptional job delivering a great product for both ice hockey participants and speed skaters. Ice
availability was limited due to the games and only 32 hours of ice were sold during March.
Nordic trail grooming came to an abrupt end at the closure of the month. Unfortunately, there
wasn't the sufficient snowfall this season to allow for much spring skiing as in year's past. All
the equipment was removed and properly stored at the maintenance yard.
T he Kcrtai iiOnS ~,iub madE: anotlTier Su~ii.~Sl~iii aLlelllpt at 1\.L31V Ylllg SfSmE' iiiGTE ticc~ livlll `the
Bernie Huss Trail. One can begin to see the results of their effort. The contractor for the
clearing and grubbing of the soccer complex also began work.
Full-Time Pazks & Grounds Assistant, Andy Bralley, had a surgical procedure performed at mid-
month and is scheduled to return to work on April 17a'. John Brandenburg has been temporarily
filling in during Andy's absence. Much of John's effort was directed towazd grooming trails and
performing routine tasks. John spent a couple days locating plots for burials and clearing paths
at the cemetery.
The Beautification Committee selected "Schools of Blooms" as this summer's beautification
theme. The theme was selected for its relationship to the 50 to 60 metal salmon silhouettes we
will be placing in various flowerbeds.

DATE: Apri! 13, 2006
SUBJECT: Department Report for Council meeting of April 19, 2006
• A current Public Works project bid information sheet is attached
^ Also attached are the quarterly reports for City Building Permits issued
and Planning and Zoning Resolutions. Activity is up in both departments,
and based on various economic indicators for the area, activity should
continue to increase. The largest increase in building (activity was in the
VVmmerrilal Udd~tlo n%al4erat;ons Ve Vtv r. Pianning and ZVning CVmmIJJlon
actions were more than double for the same period last year.
• I've been in contact with Denali Commercial Management, Inc. They are
interested in working with the City of Kenai to redevelop a portion of the
old Carr's Mall into a conference center. The Building Official and I have
toured the building. From our perspective, a portion of the building to the
northwest appears to have good potential for this type of redevelopment
and leaves the large front space available for a future retail business.
They will forward a proposal to us for further discussion.
• I joined John Carnahan (ADEC) and Ben Martech (Oasis) April 12, 2006,
at the Millennium Square property for a site visit. In talking with them, it
appears that the remaining environmental work on-site will be minimal as
far as testing. Existing ground water monitor wells will be tested and
decommissioned if results are the same as before. The rest of the effort
will summarize al( environmental work on the three parcels and give
guidance for future development of the property.

The Peninsula Conference of Mayors
For Regional Coot~eration and Economic I3evelo~ment
Purposes The Kenai Peninsula Borough, City of Seldovia, City of Seward, City of Kenai,
City of Homer, City of Soldotna and Kachemak City have a combined population of
more than 50,000 residents. The Kenai Peninsula region they encompass includes a large
section of Alaska's roads and other publ'ac infrastructure, and is the center of Southcentral
Alaska's tourism, commercial fishing, energy production and value-added manufacturing
industries.
The communities of the Kenai Peninsula region share numerous econamic, visitor,
energy, environmental, human and transportation needs. untai now, Tillie attempt has
been made to identify this Kenai Peninsula region as a single errtity, to coordinate action,
or to concentrate the attention of state and national leaders. Enhanced coordination
among the borough and municipal governments of this region could create new economic
opportunities and improve public services for its residents.
The Peninsula Conference of Mayors would provide a forum for the municipal
governments to plan and coordinate common action, leverage resources, and aggressively
pursue solutions to common problems on a regional level. The Conference would unify
coordination efforts and compliment the on-going efforts of existing organizations, such
as visitors' bureaus, chambers of commerce, economic development agencies and other
governmental entities. The Conference also will identify strategic opportunities and needs

MEMO NDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Larry Semmens, Finance Director,
THRU: Rick Koch, City Manager
DATE: April 12, 2006
SUBJECT: Investment Report
At March 31, 2006 the City had investments with a market value of $33,895,062. The breakdown of types
of investments held is:
US Agency Securities $33,083,515
AML Investment Pool $ 386,777
Bank Balance $ 424,770
The Federal Reserve increased rates 15 times in the last couple years in .25% increments from 1 % to the
current rate of 4.75%. We have a new federal reserve chairman; so long Alan, I won't be calling you
anymore. The economy appears to be strong with low inflation and unemployment rates. The yield on the
portfolio should continue to creep up as lower yielding securities are replaced. Unfortunately as rates
increase the values of the existing securities decline. Note that there is a difference of $273,290 in the
current market value and the carrying value. I will have to book any difference remaining at June 30,
which will reduce interest earnings for the year. This makes it quite difficult to accurately project interest
earnings, but next year should be better than this year in terms of interest revenue.
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 flow needs. Some of the securities in the portfolio are
callable, which means the issuer can redeem the security for the par amount at their option. A call
generally only occurs when rates are falling, which means that the investor will reinvest at a lower rate of
interest. 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 comments about the City's investments
please contact me. A copy of the portfolio is attached.

RE: Central Area Rural Transit System, Inc. funding request for FY 2007
Dear Mayor Porter:
These are exciting times for Central Area Rural Transit System, Inc. (CARTS). CARTS
delivered 69,857 rides in 2005 and 222,041 rides since we began delivering rides! 28% of
CARTS riders are traveling back and forth to work, 17% are students, and 12% are elderly
and disabled. 32% of CARTS riders are purchasing there own rides. 40% of CARTS rides
originate or end in the City of Kenai. CARTS average trip length is 10.03 miles.
Over the past 5 years of delivering rides, we have outperformed even the most optimistic
projections. The CARTS program does not serve only the underprivileged, poor, seniors or
the disabled. It serves everyone and crosses all economic and cultural boundaries. CARTS
has enjoyed tremendous success and we are dedicated to improving transportation for all
residents of the central Kenai Peninsula.
CARTS brings Federal tax dollars back into the Kenai Peninsula for public services.
Obtaining local match is extremely important. We respectfully request $5,000 for FY 2007.
These funds will be used to match our JARC (Job Access Reverse Commute) funds.
I would be happy to attend a budget work session and provide additional information and
materials. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
~~ti~~~~ifVl/~/h/yL-------~

Subject: Frontier Community Services, Property near Mommsen Subdivision
The purpose of this correspondence is to transmit for your information a letter and draft
Resolution I received from Frontier Community Services regazding the donation by the
City of 24.8 acres of property to support the first phase of a development for non-profit
support services for people at risk of or experiencing disabling conditions and local
senior care services in partnership with the Senior Connection.
No action is required at this time. At the Council meeting of May 3`d, additional
information and a request for action will be presented to the Council.
Kenai City Council

Kenai, AK 9961 I
April 13, 2006
Deaz Council Members,
It is hard to believe that neazly a year has past since we first met to discuss the possibility
of a land donation. Since that time Frontier has hired the local architectural fine of
KI and Associates to develop a master site plan, as well as schematic and conceptual
drawings r our proposed facilities. At the Council's request we also met with the City
administration and engineers to discuss the development process. In addition, in
cailaboration with the Kenai Senior Connection (KSC) we met with the KEDS Action
Team to discuss both projects and their impact on Kenai's economic development and
quality of life issues for area residents.
Throughout this process Frontier and the KSC have been in close communications with
each other and have come to the conclusion that it would be in both entities interest to
locate our proposed facilities in the same vicinity.
Frontier and KSC are kindred spirits, in that our goals for local senior services are one
and the same. FCS administers home and community based support services for azea
seniors and disabled adults. Locating our offices adjacent to the senior assisted living
facility will allow Frontier to assist with senior care services and participate in
administration of the KSC's proposed facility.
City administrative staff have requested that we develop a resolution for the Council's
review. Attached you will find a resolution that we believe will meet our needs while
safeguarding the city's interest.
We are asking that this item be put on the agenda for April 19, 2006 for the council's
consideration.
Sincerely
et
Executive Director

Team Building is the buzz word for business today. What exactly
is this? In actuality it means to help build teams through discovery and
experience using team building exercises, activities, games, and unique
events. I have some unique suggestions below for Team Building.
1) The 3rd Annual Kenai Chamber of Commerce Up Your
Alley Bowling Tournament is under way. Sign up your office for a team
and work towards Che goal of "taking" the trophy away from Waddell &
Reed, who took it from the Kenai River City Dental Clinic. You could be
sporting this dynamic trophy this year!
2) Spring Clean Up is right around the corner. Mark your
calendar for the second week of May. Pick up bags at the Chamber Cabin
and take a break from work, invite your employees to join you in clean-
ing up your parking lot, along the road in front of your business and help
clean up our community. This is a great "T earn Building" exercise.
3) Before we know it the 4th of 7uly will be here. Build a
float and enter your business!

Arctic "48`inter Games - A Very Rewardin5 Esperieace
During the Arctic Winter Games I was one of die translators working with
team Yamal (pronounced Ya-Maal). They brought about 50 people including adr
fetes in 8 sports, a cultural group, and media people from both reeional and federal
TV stations and mission staff, (this is one of the smaller contingents).
The werk really started when the whole team arrived at the Kenai airport on
March 4th. They sere welcomed by many volunteers and Tim Dillon, general
manager of AWG3006 Host Society. Every athlete receir°ed a pocket dictionary
generously donated by Marathon Oil Company.
ihey were a little shy at first and very tired after dzeir ;4 hour Plight, but once
the registration process was complete the participants were eery excited and lookinn
forward to the Games. For most people on the team it was their firs[ time in Alaska.
Athletes wanted to know how to use international calling cards to call their families
and friends back home. Coaches were askin>; about different venues, snow condi-
tions and about the area in general, and even ice fishing!
During the week of the Games I was workine with different groups of team
Yamal translating during competition, coaches meetings, cuimral rehearsals plus
solving some practical problems like getting a voltage adapter or ski cleaner and also ••
helping athletes when they just wanted to communicate to other teams. "bVe really
would like to talk to the Yamal team and learn more about them" the cultural group `~ ~
coach from team VWT once told me. Many participants from other teams ap- '~
proached me during the week, "ask them if they would like to trade their jackets for
our jackets". It seemed that Russian jackets and pins were hot items for trading.
"Translators definitely contributed to our team's success during these
Games, 1.5 ulus per athlete!" said Evgeny Se(ivanov, Chef de Mission for team
Yamat before the closing ceremonies on March 11. The Games were over and
athletes were ready to go back Taking home ulus, great memories and new friend-
ships. It was a very rewarding experience. Being a translator is like creating a .ro»
communication bridge between different cultures and ail participants really appreci- ,~.~'
aced that.

The biggest challenge you will
face as a business owner next to start-
ing your own business is taking it to
the next Level.
By now you are probably a
seasoned entrepreneur, who has suc-
cessfully navigated around the pitfalls
that cause early business failure;
you're ready to grow, and financing
again is an issue.
Enter the SBA 504 loan pro-
gram, especially designed to help
small businesses at this juncture.
Also called the Certified De-
velopment Company/504 Program,
this is a long-term financing tool for
economic development within a com-
munity. It provides growing busi-
r' with long-term, fixed-rate
fi. .~g for major ftxed assets. such
as land, buildings and machinery and
equipment.
CDCs are nonprofit corpora-
tions set up to contribute to the eco-
nomic development of their
communities. They work with the SBA
and private-sector lenders to provide
financing to small businesses. There
are about 270 CDCs nationwide. Each
CDC covers a specific geographic ar-
ea.
Most companies that qualify
as small businesses can qualify for a
CDC/504 loan. Companies must meet
specific 5BA size standards: it must
not have a tangible net worth of more
than S7 million, and not have an aver-
age net income of more than 52.5 mil-
lion after taxes for the two preceding
Financing the ~~4 ~Vay
By Karen Forsland, District Director
The 504 nroject has three com-
ponents: adirect commercial loan from
the private secmr covering 50 percent
of the project, and secured by a senior
lien; a loan secured with a junior lien
from the CDC covering up to 40 per-
cent of the cost, and backed by a 100
percent SSA-guaranteed debenture;
and a contribution of at least 10 per-
cent equity from your business.
I1tis type of SBA loan has
some specific requirements that busi-
nesses have to meet in order to qualify:
they have to meet job creation criteria
or a community development goal, and
public policy goals.
The maximum SBA portion is
$1,500,000 for meeting the job cre-
ation criteria or a community develop-
ment goal. Generally, a business must
croate or retain one job for every
550,000 provided by the SBA.
The maximum SBA debenture
is SZ million for meeting a public pol-
icy goal. -the public policy goals are as
follows:
years.

New provisions signed into
law in December 2004 created a new
cstegory of 504 loans to "small manu-
facturers", with a maximum SBA
guarantee of $4 million. The criteria tc
qualify for these loans include: cre-
ation or retention of at least 1 job per
$100,000 guaranteed by the SBA, and
that all production facilities be located
in the United States.
Growing your business may,
and usually does, involve spending in
several different areas. Funds under
the X04 program, however, can only be
used for fixed asset projects such as:
purchasing land and improvements,
including existing buildings, grading,
street improvements. utilities, parking
lots and landscaping; construction of
new facilities, or modernizing, reno-
vating or converting existing facilities;
or purchasing long-term machinery
and equipment.
The 504 Program cannot be
used for working capital or inventory,
consolidating or repaying debt, or refi-
nancing.
As with the SBA's more
widely known (pan guaranty program,
504 loans are designed to help the
small business owner be successful.
Interest rates on 504 Loans are pegged
to an increment above the current mar-
ket rate for five-year and 10-year U. S.
Treasury issues. Maturities of 10 and
20 years are available. Fees total ap-
proximately 3 percent of the debenture
and may be financed with the loan.

Steps to Avoid Identity Theft: What You Can Do to Protect Ycurself I
In this day and age, it never hurts to be proactive. Here are some handy tips on what you can do to help protect
yourself from identity theft.
1. On your next order of checks print only your initials on your checks instead of your full name. A
potential thief won't know if you sign your name with your initials or your full name, but your bank w:
know how you sign your checks.
2. Do not sign the back of your credit cards. Insteatl, put "PHOTO ID REQUIRED"
3. Never write your full credit card number on the "memo" line of your checks when you are paying your
credit card bill. Only write the last four dioits, your credit card company knows the rest.
4. Do not use your home phone number or physical address on your checks when possible. Use your
work phone number and a PO Box if you have one.
5. Photocopy the entire contents of your wallet; make sure to copy both sides of your credit cards, license,
etc. Keep the copy in a safe place so that if your wallet gets stolen you have easy access to all the
numbers you need in order to cancel them.
6. Remember, banks and credit card companies will never ask for personal information over the phone or
Internet, so don't offer it to them.
7. Be sure to check your credit report at least twice a year for accuracy by calling one of the agendes
listed below or signing onto one of their websites.
If your credit cards are stolen follow these steps:
1. Cancel your credit Bards immediately. Do you have all the 1-800 numbers for your Ards readily
accessible?
2. Immediately report the theft to the police in the jurisdiction where your credit cards, etc., were Stolen.
This proves to credit providers you were diligent.
3. Most importantly: Call the three national credit reporting organizations and place a fraud alert on yoar
soda) security number and name. The alert means any company that checks your credit knows your
information was stolen, and they have to contact you by phone to authorize new credit.
Numbers to call:
Equifax: 1-800-525-6285 Experian: 1-888-397-3742 Trans Union: 1-800-680-7289
social security Administration (fraud line): 1-800-269-0271.

Back in January, the bridge crew was preparing the reinforcing sceel in the cofferdam for pouring concrete for the
new center pier. On January 23rd, an icejam formed at approximately mile I S of the Kenai River (the bridge is at
about mile 22 or 23}. The icejam backed up water and ice quickly, pushing the river level up many feet in a very
short time. The ice buildup from this azound the cofferdam and work trestle caused the Contractor to suspend
operations until they could determine if further work was safe under those conditions. They decided that it would
be better to hold off working until later in the spring when the weather was more cooperative and they could safely
proceed with their operations. The project resumed again on March 6th. Since then, here is what has been done.
l.) Constructed an access road down to the old south pier 2 J Removed the old south pier
3.) Installed class II riprap for the new south abutment mostly completing the work that was started last fall
4J Removed the old north abutment 5.) Removed the old north pier
6.) Prepared for installing class II riprap for the new north abutment
7.) Worked on removing the ice buildup inside the cofferdam and getting it ready for the concrete pour (scheduler'
for this week). What we are planning to work on in April
1.) Complete the concrete work for the footing of the center pier
2.) Work on constructing the main pottion of the new center pier
~i 3.) Install class II riprap for the new north abutment.
~', 4.) Work on installing pumps and electrical systems for storm drain lift stations.
I S) Begin work to construct the new north abutment (footin and backwall)
