NOTES /COMMENTS
The bluff erosion project has been the City of Kenai's
number one Federal and State funding priority for at least
the previous thrree years. Administration is requesting
funding from the Governor and area Legislators. To date,
funding of approximately 1.5 million has been
appropriated by Alaska's congressional delegation, but the
outlook for additional federal funding is not good. The
citizens of Kenai approved a G.O. bond proposition in the
amount of 2,000,000 in 2007. Given the State of Alaska's
present financial condition the opportunity to recieve
funding is as good as it has been in some years.
To date the project has received or has commitments for
funding in the amount of 4,170,000. This includes
2,000,000 for G.O. Bonds, 1,500,000 from the Rasmuson
Foundation, 250,000 from the State of Alaska, 250,000
from the City of Kenai G.F.,& 170,000 from the Friends of
the Kenai Community Library. Additional fundraising efforts
are ongoing.
'..Administration recommends that a project of this type be
perpetually included in capital project requests to the State
of Alaska.

DESCRIPTION
Approximately one -mile of the bluff along the Kenai River is
exhibiting substantial erosion. Several hundred feet of the
original townsite have been lost over the last century. The
U.S. Corp of Engineers estimates the rate of erosion to be 3
feet per year. Over the next 50 years, in excess of 50
million (in 2006 dollars) of property and improvements will be
lost, without the construction of stabilization improvements.
The total cost estimate for the project is 20 million.
Approximately 1.5 million has been spent to date on
preliminary engineering studies. Kenai voters approved a
2 million bond sale at the October 2007 election. Recently the
Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly passed a resolution to
provide the quarry rock for the project at no cost. The value
of the rock is estimated at 4.8 million. Total funding in -hand
and in -kind is approximately 10.2 million.
Project would expand the existing Kenai Community Library
by approximately 10,000 s.f., or roughly double the size of the
existing facility. Voters in Kenai approved a bond sale in the
amount of 2 million, for a project presently estimated at
5.3 million. The conceptual design is complete and the
consultant is accomplishing the final design. Bid Opening is
scheduled for March 2010 and project completion in May
2011.
The City of Kenai maintains approximately 20 miles of gravel
surfaced roadways within it's municipal boundaries. The cost
of maintenance of gravel roadways is high, dust from gravel
roadways is a health issue for the elderly young. The 1
million requested will be used as a 50% match to support
local improvement districts
This project would purchase two Low Ground Pressure (LPG)
vehicles to enhance access for both seasonal enforcement
officers parks recreation personnel, and construct three
Fish Cleaning/Waste Transfer Enforcement/Data
Collection Stations. The three stations would be located at
the North Beach, South Beach, and City Boat Launch.

NOTES /COMMENTS
This is the first phase opf a three phase project to construct
improvements to the WWTP ans identified in the WWTP
Master Plan prepared by CH2MHil1 in 1993.
The Department of Energy will be soliciting grant
applications for energy conservation projects in the near
future. It is my understanding that uo to 9 million in ARRA
funding may be available through a competitive process.
This project could also be a candidate for the DOE
competitive grant program.

DESCRIPTION
This project would construct improvements to the City of
Kenai's WWTP which would increase volume, decrease
operating expenses and increase the quality of the effluent.
This project would replace the major components of the
heating ventilation system, and lighting systems.
This new fire engine would replace an existing 26 year old fire
engine. Our 1982 fire engine is the oldest equipment
presently in use at the Fire Department, and was one of the
last years in which "open jump seat" fire engines were
allowed by code. The old engine has reached the end of it's
useful life and should be replaced.
Project would design and install irrigation system for four
soccer fields
This project would construct a six -bay vehicle storage facility
at the Senior Center. At present the vehicles are stored
outside the center. During the winter this results in vehicles
running to maintain heat for trips for the senior clients, and
also results in increased mechanical difficulties.
The current system does not provide uniform heat in the
winter and does not include air conditioning (cooling) in the
summer. The present system also does not provide an
adequate number of air changes to meet current code
requirements. The copy room which contains the computer
servers is consistently at a significantly elevated temperature.

NOTESICOMMENTS
We have applied to ADEC for this
project and it appears we
have scored high enough for t to be a SFY 10 grant funded
State project under the municipal matching grant program.
We also have received a grant from the USEPA in the
amount of 288,000 that can be used as a portion of the
match for this project. The grant program requires a 30%
match from the city. By using the EPA funding as a part of
that match the City will need to provide 599,142.
'.The bluff erosion project has been the City of Kenai's
number one Federal and State funding priority for at least
the previous thrree years. Administration is requesting
funding from the Governor and area Legislators. To date,
funding of approximately 1.5 million has been
appropriated by Alaska's congressional delegation, but the

amount of 2,000,000 in 2007. Given the State of Alaska's
present financial condition the opportunity to recieve
funding is as good as it has been in some years.
To date the project has received or has commitments for
funding in the amount of 3,920,000. This includes
2,000,000 for G.O. Bonds, 1,500,000 from the Rasmuson
Foundation, 170,000 from the Friends of the Kenai
Community Library. Additional fundraising efforts are
ongoing.
Administration recommends that a project of this type be
perpetually included in capital project requests to the
Borough and State.

DESCRIPTION
Project would construct approximately 10,500 If of new 16"
transmission main, replace approximately 3,200 If of aging
asbestos cement trasnmission main, decommission
municipal production wells 1 3 which have high arsenic
levels, construct a new well in the vicinity of well 2 a new
wellhouse, controls, stand -by power generation, and other
related improvements. This with other previouskly recieved
grants and project funding will provide higher quality water
and increased volumes to meet present and future system
demands.

This new fire engine would replace an existing 26 year old fire
engine. Our 1982 fire engine is the oldest equipment
presently in use at the 'Fire Department, and was one of the
last years in which "open jump seat" fire engines were
allowed by code. The old engine has reached the end of it's
useful life and should be replaced.
Project would design and install irrigation system for four
soccer fields
Throughout the city there are intersections and other areas
such as school bus stops that do not have overhead street
lights. The city installs a number of lights each year.
However, there are always more needs than available
funding
The current system does not provide uniform heat in the
winter and does not include air conditioning (cooling) in the
summer. The present system also does not provide an
'.adequate number of air changes to meet current code
'requirements. The copy room which contains the computer
servers is consistently at a significantly elevated temperature.
This project would re- configure the dispatch area including air
filtration systems, electrical systems, and underfloor wiring
trays. Additionally some new work stations and furniture
would be purchased.
This project would design and install replacement concrete
planks on the boat launch ramp. The two older boat launch
ramps have planks at the lower elevation that have been
damaged by winter ice and by equipment during the annual
removal of silt.
The city maintenance shop area has been identified by ADEC
as a contaminated site. Barrels of petroleum products and
oils were disposed of on this site and measurable levels of
pollutants have been identified in an adjacent waterbody. This
project would remove contaminated soils, buried containers
and barrels. A subsequent phase of this project would
remediate the contaminated soils, dispose of
containers /barrels, and install monitoring wells.

Project would construct a tent/vehicle campground located at
the Kenai Sports Complex( located at Section 36
Project would construct a new PW shop building
approximately 10,000 sf in size
Project would include roads, parking, water /sewer and
construction of an adult baseball field
Project would provide lower river access point for pull -out of
'..drift boats only.
This project would construct a pedestrian pathway from the
!Kenai Spur Highway to Kalifornsky Beach Road along Bridge
Access Road. This area is heavily traveled by pedestrians,
sight seer's, bicyclists, etc. This project is approximately 2
miles long and would complete the 24 mile Unity Trail that
connects Kenai and Soldotna, along both the Spur Highway
and Kalifornsky Beach Road.
This project is proposed to provide safety improvements to
Beaver Loop, Thompson Park, Strawberry Road, Silver
Salmon, and TBD to include turn lanes and lighting. Traffic
accidents at these intersections usually involve at least one
vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed, and are of significant
severity.
Conflicting traffic patterns (through traffic vs
business /residential traffic) and increased traffic counts have
increased the number and severity of accidents between
Kenai Soldotna. Planned commercial developments will
significantly increase traffic in the near future

Project would expand the existing Kenai Community Library
by approximately 10,000 s.f., or roughly double the size of the
existing facility. Voters in Kenai approved a bond sale in the
amount of 2 million, for a project presently estirnated at
5.3 million. The conceptual design is complete and the
consultant is accomplishing the final design. Bid Opening is
"'..scheduled for March 2010 and project completion in May
..2011.
The City of Kenai maintains approximately 20 miles of gravel
surfaced roadways within it's municipal boundaries. The cost
of maintenance of gravel roadways is high, dust from gravel
roadways is a health issue for the elderly young. The 1
million requested will be used as a 50% match to support
local improvement districts
This project would purchase two Low Ground Pressure (LPG)
vehicles to enhance access for both seasonal enforcement
officers parks recreation personnel, and construct three
Fish Cleaning/Waste Transfer Enforcement/Data
Collection Stations. The three stations would be located at
the North Beach, South Beach, and City Boat Launch.

This is the first phase opf a three phase project to construct
improvements to the WWTP ans identified in the WWTP
Master Plan prepared by CH2MHill in 1993.
The Department of Energy will be soliciting grant
applications for energy conservation projects in the near
'..future. It is my understanding that uo to 9 million in ARRA
funding may be available through a competitive process.
This project could also be a candidate for the DOE
competitive grant program.

DESCRIPTION
This project would construct improvements to the City of
(Kenai s WWTP which would increase volume, decrease
operating expenses and increase the quality of the effluent.
This project would replace the major components of the
heating ventilation system, and lighting systems.
This new fire engine would replace an existing 26 year old fire
engine. Our 1982 fire engine is the oldest equipment
presently in use at the Fire Department, and was one of the
last years in which "open jump seat" fire engines were
allowed by code. The old engine has reached the end of it's
useful life and should be replaced.
Project would design and install irrigation system for four
soccer fields
This project would construct a six -bay vehicle storage facility
at the Senior Center. At present the vehicles are stored
outside the center. During the winter this results in vehicles
running to maintain heat for trips for the senior clients, and
also results in increased mechanical difficulties.
The current system does not provide uniform heat in the
winter and does not include air conditioning (cooling) in the
summer. The present system also does not provide an
adequate number of air changes to meet current code
requirements. The copy room which contains the computer
servers is consistently at a significantly elevated temperature.

We also have received a grant from the USEPA in the
amount of 288,000 that can be used as a portion of the
match for this project. The grant program requires a 30%
match from the city. By using the EPA funding as a part of
that match the City will need to provide 599,142.
funding trom the Governor and area Legislators. I o date,
funding of approximately 1.5 million has been
appropriated by Alaska's congressional delegation, but the
outlook for additional federal funding is not good. The
citizens of Kenai approved a G.O. bond proposition in the
amount of 2,000,000 in 2007. Given the State of Alaska's
present financial condition the opportunity to recieve
Ifunding is as good as it has been in some years.
To date the project has received or has commitments for
funding in the amount of 3,920,000. This includes
2,000,000 for G.O. Bonds, 1,500,000 from the Rasmuson

Throughout the city there are intersections and other areas
such as school bus stops that do not have overhead street
lights. The city installs a number of lights each year.
However, there are always more needs than available
funding
The current system does not provide uniform heat in the
winter and does not include air conditioning (cooling) in the
summer. The present system also does not provide an
adequate number of air changes to meet current code
requirements. The copy room which contains the computer
servers is consistently at a significantly elevated temperature.
This project would re- configure the dispatch area including air
filtration systems, electrical systems, and underfloor wiring
trays. Additionally some new work stations and furniture
would be purchased.
This project would design and install replacement concrete
planks on the boat launch ramp. The two older boat launch
ramps have planks at the lower elevation that have been
damaged by winter ice and by equipment during the annual
removal of silt. iiiiiiiiiiiiii
The city maintenance shop area has been identified by ADEC
as a contaminated site. Barrels of petroleum products and
oils were disposed of on this site and measurable levels of
pollutants have been identified in an adjacent waterbody. This
project would remove contaminated soils, buried containers
and barrels. A subsequent phase of this project would
remediate the contaminated soils, dispose of
containers /barrels, and install monitoring wells.

Project would construct a tent/vehicle campground located at
......the Kenai Sports Complex( located at Section 36
Project would construct a new PW shop building
approximately 10,000 sf in size
Project would include roads, parking, water /sewer and
construction of an adult baseball field
Project would provide lower river access point for pull -out of
drift boats only.
This project would construct a pedestrian pathway from the
Kenai Spur Highway to Kalifornsky Beach Road along Bridge
Access Road. This area is heavily traveled by pedestrians,
sight seer's, bicyclists, etc. This project is approximately 2
miles long and would complete the 24 mile Unity Trail that
connects Kenai and Soldotna, along both the Spur Highway
and Kalifornsky Beach Road.
This project is proposed to provide safety improvements to
Beaver Loop, Thompson Park, Strawberry Road, Silver
Salmon, and TBD to include turn lanes and lighting. Traffic
accidents at these intersections usually involve at least one
vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed, and are of significant
severity.
Conflicting traffic patterns (through traffic vs
business /residential traffic) and increased traffic counts have
increased the number and severity of accidents between
Kenai Soldotna. Planned commercial developments will
significantly increase traffic in the near future
