Grant Proposal
Grant Proposal
Kenai Central High School is asking the Council of the City of Kenai to direct the
City Administration to include a grant in the amount of $5,000 to Kenai Central
High School in the City's budget for FY 2014, FY 2015, and FY 2016, subject to
Kenai Central High School being successful in their three year bid to host the
ASAA State Track Meet, and subject to Council appropriation.
Reason For Grant
Kenai Central High School is scheduled to have a newly constructed track and turf
field facility. We are very grateful for the unwavering support from the City of
Kenai on this project. As a result, Kenai Central high School, in partnership with
Soldoma High School, is submitting a three year bid to the Alaska School
Activities Association (ASAA ')to host the Boys & Girls 1A, 2A, 3A State Track
Meet as well as the Boys & Girls 4A State Track Meet. These are four separate
meets that will take place together on a Friday and Saturday at the end of May.
Although this is no small task and will require a great deal of planning and work,
the administration and staff at KCHS feel like it is part of our job to submit
proposals to host such events in an effort to try and give back to our community for
the many things that it does for our school and the youth of the peninsula.
We anticipate other schools such as Palmer and Dimond to also submit proposals
to host the state meet and in order to enhance our bid we again are asking for the
City of Kenai's help. Awarding us this grant would go a long ways in showing
ASAA how committed the community is to hosting this event and would also
allow us to submit a proposal with a zero budget.
Use of Monev
All of the money awarded in the grant will be used to run the meet and will remain
in the local economy. The funds will be used to pay for porgy -a- potties on the field,
food for the hospitality room, and to local booster clubs for their help in timing,
collecting money at the gate, security at all entrance points, tinning and meet
management, and running the hospitality room.
Winners if the Biel is Awarded
+ Local Businesses: Over 500 athletes from all regions of the state along with
coaches, administrators, and parents will be coming to the peninsula. Most
of those people will arrive on 'Thursday and leave Saturday evening. It is a
safe bet that most of the local motel /hotel and even some B &B's will be full
during this time. In addition, all of these people will be eating out, buying
groceries, purchasing gas and perrasjenting vehicles;
• Local Athletes & Families: Not only do they get to compete at a local
facility that they are comfortable with and have already competed on but
they also get to sleep in their own beds, eat home cooked meals and they can
have their friends, family and classmates come watch them compete without
having to spend a large amount of money;
• Local Schools and KPBSD: By holding this meet on the central peninsula
instead of in Fairbanks or Anchorage all of the district's schools will save a
great deal of travel money;
• Local Boosters Club: The state meet will serve as an opportunity for many
of our clubs to earn some money while helping to put on a quality meet;
• Local. Running and Track Enthusiasts: Having the state meet on the
peninsula will give this group of people an opportunity to watch four
different tracks meets at one time;
• The Junior Class at KCHS: If awarded the bid, the host group gets to run
concessions and keep all of the profits. Our junior class does all of the
concessions for our home football games and uses the profits earned to help
fund the junior /senior prom. The plan would be for our Activity Director
and the class sponsors for next year's junior class to help the kids with
concessions. This could prove to be a great fund raiser for the class and
would help to relieve some of the financial burden of putting on prom.
Other Bids
In addition to the bid for state track and field, Kenai Central High School and
Soldotna High School are also submitting a three year proposal to joint host the
ASAA State Hockey Tournaments at the Soldotna Sports Center. This tournament
would be held during the middle of February and would consist of an eight team
large schools tournament and a four team small schools tournament. This
tournament would take place over a three day period, Thursday through Saturday
with most teams showing up on Wednesday.
We are currently working with Andrew Carmichael at the Sports Center, Mark
Dixon the City Manager of Soldotna, and the City of Soldotna to have all of the ice
time needed for this event to be donated. This tournament could provide the
central peninsula with a much needed economic boost in the middle of February,
It is our hope that the two schools and communities can work together to bring
both of these events to the peninsula. They both would give us an opportunity to
show case our facilities and abilities to host such an event while providing a great
boost to our local economy.

Re: Resolution 2012 -58
Resolution 2012 -58 will authorize a budget transfer from salaries to professional services within
the Legal Department The budget transfer is needed due to the hiring of outside legal counsel to
represent the City during the recruitment and transition of the new City attorney. A
supplemental appropriation is not needed as excess funds are available in the Legal Department's
salaries because- of the gap in service created by the departure of the prior City attorney and the
start of the new City attorney.
It is anticipated this budget transfer will be sufficient for the legal services provided and will
leave sufficient budget for Legal Department wages for the remainder of FY 13.

Mayor Pat Porter,
Recently, employees of the Kenai Street Department did a great job in relocating
the old Wittenberg dump truck from Kenai Landing to the Historical Cabin Park.
Kenai is very fortunate to have pleasant and cooperative workers who help so
much in preserving parts of local history.
I would like to recognize Curt Wagoner, Jim Lackey, Andy Bralley, and Robert Link,
and thank them and the City of Kenai for their efforts. It is cooperation such as
this that makes Kenai such a great place to live, and the Kenai Historical Society
appreciates the joint effort.
Thank you for your continued support and for your attention.
Sincerely,
Joe & June Harris

FIRE DEPARTMENT MID -MONTH REPORT
October 2012
KENALALASKA
Well it is October and that means "Fire Prevention Month" in the State of Alaska. This is the month that we have
the opportunity to get into the class rooms and work with the kids and teach them about exit plans, stop drop and
roil, crawling low in smoke and the proper use of the emergency line 91.1. Active Fire Prevention has been a long
standing tradition in our fire department and we continue to work closely with the school administration and
teachers.
The Fire Marshal has worked with all the local schools to schedule time for our crews to meet with every class
from Kindergarten through 5th grade. The week of October 5 -12 we will be working at Mt View Elementary. We
continue to use the kid's favorite teaching tool, our Fire Safety House.
Our Fire Safety House is beginning its 20 1h year of service to the kids of this community. Built in 1991, it first
went to work in the class rooms in the fall of 1992. Since then there has literally been thousands of kids that have
gone through the training. The project was funded entirely with donations to the Kenai Firefighter's Association
and built locally at Niches Iron Works. The Fire Safety House continues to work flawlessly and is still one of the
best teaching tools the fire service has.
We had three department Paramedics attend their mandatory refresher training at Central Emergency Services this
month. This is a weeklong class that is needed to maintain their National Registry certification that is mandated
by the State of Alaska.
In a cooperative effort between Tesoro and the City of Kenai, Captain Mark Anderson traveled to Texas to attend
their Corporate Fire Fighting School. This is a great opportunity to experience the firefighting tactics utilized in
the industrial setting. These tactics and strategies can then be taught throughout the rest of our department.
October 9'1' we hosted the last of the Hepatitis vaccinations for City employees at the Fire station. We are
continuing our relationship with Safe Kids boating Car Seat checks at the Fire Station and are still allowing Ride
a long students from the College.

Honorable Barack H, Obama
President of the United States
The White house
Washington, DC 20500
Mr. president:
On Friday September 21, Alaska Governor Sean Parnell declared a disaster under the
Alaska Disaster Act for high winds and severe flooding that affected the Matanuska - Borough
and the Kenai Peninsula, including the cities of Kenai, Seward and Talkeema. The community of
Taikeetna, at the gateway to Denali National Park, was evacuated for a time. Other communities
were pul on alert to the dangers of rising water,
The areas hardest hit by this event were on Alaska's "railbelt ", that portion of the state
which enjoys both road and rail access. Most of Alaska's population lives along the railbeh. The
Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities worked valiantly to keep roads open.
The State owned Alaska Railroad, whose right of way is accessible in parts only by rail, has
incurred substantial costs from high winds blowing debris onto the track, mudslides from water-
logged soils, and floodwaters washing out the track bed and bridge abutments.
This late September event was the latest and most severe chapter in a series of incidents
that have plagued Alaska this fall. The State of Alaska has had damage assessment teams on the
ground in the Alaska. Native village of'fatacross to help evaluate the scope and severity of
damages from a September 16`x' wind event. 'rite Native village of Chenega experienced a
landslide that blocked the community's access to their airport.
In times like these Alaskans deeply appreciate the professionalism of the Federal
Emergency Management Agency, its federal partners, the American Red Cross and our network
of voluntary organizations involved in disaster recovery. We understand that the Federal
Emergency Management Agency has dispatched Preliminary I3amage Assessment teams to
Alaska to document the damages and estimate restoration costs. We appreciate your attention to
the severe storms that plagued Alaska this fall and ask that you make the fall resources of the
federal family available to Governor Parnell, consistent with applicable laws and regulations, to
aid in the recovery, should the Governor request federal assistance.
