public hearing was closed.
Council Member Molloy stated his objection to the request for unanimous consent
noting concern, with the cost of fuel rising, a portion of the funds should be available
to supplement the fuel budget if needed. Discussion followed with comments
including:
The entire park expansion would not take place this year. It was
Administration's intent to include funding in the FY12 budget for some of the park
improvements.
The design of the park expansion would need to be completed first.
The $30,000 would not construct the physical improvements. It would
allow the bid for the parking and road portion of the design to be completed.
If funds were not included in the FY12 budget, half of the playground
expansion construction would have be finished in late 2012. If the design was
accomplished sooner, the park expansion would be finished earlier in 2012.

G -13. Discussion Development of Drift Boat Pull -Out.
Council Member Gabriel explained, the Harbor Commission requested the City assist
in facilitating the development of a drift boat pullout; the Department of Natural
Resources would need to be involved; and, it was understood the Corps of Engineers
would need to be involved with regard to the permitting required to do work in the
Kenai River.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING
MARCH 16, 2011
PAGE 1.0
A brief discussion followed with comments including:
Other regulatory bodies would also need to be involved.
The roadblocks involved in a pullout development would be regulatory
(first) and money.
A pullout may no longer be needed due to drift boats now being allowed
to use ten horse power motors which could be used to motor to the dock.
Legislative funds had been re- appropriated several years ago to the
Department of Natural Resources which were to be used for a study on development of
a pullout: The funds were used for another purpose.
Disagreement that the need for a pullout was solved by allowing drift
boats to use ten horsepower motors.
Historically, there had been a pullout at Cunningham Park, but was
removed when the bank was re- vegetated. Additionally, the use of the park was for
children, etc. and not to be used as a pullout area.
