Members of Planning Commission The City of Kenai has recently been advised that the State of Alaska in combination with the Federal Water Pollution Control Agency will fund 80% of a new sewage treatment plant for the City of Kenai this year. As our proposal stands at present, only the plant and three minor interceptors will be built this summer. The remaining shall be constructed in the summer of 1972. The plant location shall be as marked on the attached vicinity map, on the low lands between City Park and the Inlet. This will allow for immediate connection to two of the City►s three existing sewer trunk lines and leave adequate funds for an'.additional interceptor line to pick up the "old town area". The existing treatment plant will serve as a chlorine retention tank for final disinfection. This should put Kenai in excellent position for sometime in the future in so far as sewer treatment. COST BREAKDOWN Cost to FWQA $385,000.00 Cost to State of Alaska 175,000,00 Cost to City of. Kenai 1.0,000,00 TOTAL PROJECT COST $700,000.00 We need your approval on this project.

However, City had to attempt to save a portion of a $80,028 cost -- just so some of the remaining employees could get paid in Spring of 1970. T0: Alaska State Legislature SUBJECT: Narrative Report on Revenue Shortfall and Cost of Explosive Growth Impact in the City of Kenai So K%nai may share its experience with the other communities subjected to explosive growth impact, a set of estimate" as in-depth as pus - stole, has been prepared to illustrate this narrative description. I. REVENUE SHORTFALL A. Kenai, while struggling with the costs of explosive growth, also failed to receive its Just share of revenues. Most dramatic example is the shortfall of revenues returned to the cities according to statutory formula in the Alaska Business License (gross receipts) Tax. 1. The most easily verified shortfall has been demonstrated by failure of City of Kenai to receive receipts resulting from con- struction (of buildings, roads, water/sewer, airports) as illustrated on the attached summary "Revenue Shortfall," Section I, para A(1). Notice those estimates indicate failure to receive, for a 4 year period, an estimated $36,224. Even these estimates are inadequate since reports of subcontractors of prime contractors are not reflected in the line IA(l)a. In Section I, para A(2) - Non -construction Activity, it is reasonable that the same proportion of shortfall should result. Therefore, the sum of $ has been estimated not to have been received for all non -construction related activities. B. The "shortfall" resulting from not receiving either landing fees, or aircraft fuel tax sharing from fuel purchased on the Kenai (Municipal) Airport have to be estimates because Kenai does not have the staff and equipment to monitor fuel usage or aircraft activity. C. The users of the small aircraft argued that they should not have to pay landing fees because they bought fuel. Then some of those users apparently filled up in or near Anchorage, Inter- national (a State owned airport), traveled to Kenai where they picked up passengers, flew those passengers from Kenai to the gest side of the Inlet, came back to Kenai, went back to Anchorage without buying any fue111 This type of situation can be especially burdensome on a small community that owns its own airport. This is an example where a sharing of the burdens by a reimbursement to Kenai should be accomplished. II. COST OF EXPLOSIV-13 GROWTH IMPACT -• CITY OF KENAI PRELIMINARY COMNLENTS: While explosive growth may appear to be the best of all worlda for economic purposes, in fact it results in many problems. Inevi=.ably, local governmental services are inade- quate and cannot, with present organization of local tax revenues respond in a timely fashion. Although the vicinity of Kenai, which would look to the City of Kenai for urban services, produced resources revenues for oil and gas for the State of Alaska of not less than 50 million dollars fo.r the period 1965-1970. ,although the revenues estimate is vastly augmented by revenues generated from gross raceints, Income tax, and other revenue sources, there Yeas littla or no sharing of the cost burdens of urban services by the State with Kenai. Prior to 1969, there may have been some excuse for the State to avoid shoring some of the costs of explosive growth because it was desperately short of money. Now there should be no excuse for failure to reimburse costs bo the political subdivision of the State. In this case, the City of Kenai has struggled to pay for demands For urban services because of its proximity to the developed and developing areas. Tfiese costs and pressures are illustrated by the population estimates o; the City 66 Kenai (frequently people living outside the City look to the community for various services). Population for the time in question was: 1965 -- 2,000; 1966 - 3,000; 1967 - 4,500; 1968 - .4,500 to 6,000; 1969 - 4,500. (Remember these costs occurred at the very time revenues that should logically should have gone to Kenai were not, in fact, being received to help bear the cost2). Examples of costs of explosive growth are as follows: A. POLICE COSTS: For the 5-year period 1965-66 through 1969-70, the estimated costs for extra police services were $65,594.00. The need becomes especially apparent with consideration of the large influx of transient psople -- who frequently do not have much in the way of recreation facilities - or, many eases, do not have their families with them; who are thrown,,reereation apt to result in police services. Such a situation did occur in Kenai. B. TEMPORARY EMPLOYEE COSTS: The City rdeeived numerous requests for services for the Newly arriving people, such as installation of water and sewer, upgrading of streets and street construction, water facilities, parks, eta. resulting in unanticipated wages costs of $39,000. Frequently after these costs for wages, the new facilities required additional employees -- a requirement also occurring in advance of revenues being received by the City of Kenai. C. UTILITIES SERVICES: The City of Kenai had a water and sewer program in excess of .1,000,000 to provide utilities services to areas new housing. Almost half the cost was paid by a grant from the Economic Development Administration. Of the remaining 50-60 percent, which had to be paid from City borrowed money, bene- fitted properties not bearing a fair share of assessments accounted for $118.,665.00. Thi» represented benefitted State landslgRich the State pays no assessments. In other words, approximately 20X of the entire program will not bear its own cost. D. .INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL SITES: A crash program to develop a Cook Inlet Industrial Air Park for facilities adjacent to the airport in Kenai was accomplished with another economic development administra- tion grant. however, this rush program resulted in a cost overrun of $43,206.84. Even though assessments (which were not anticipated, but which were levied later) were utilized to regain some of overrun costs, the sum of $22,930.22 of those assessments remain against property not utilized and therefore not paying. E. FIRE WATER RESERVE: Following construction of new commercial and residential facilities, a fire water reserve was required in order to attempt "to hold the line" on fire insurance rate. This facility is still under construction and its unanticipated, unbudgeted cost Is $74,000.00. F. PERMANENTLY HIGHLR COSTS. ActIvIties of the temporary employees caused mandarory expansion (again In advance of realistic revenues and in the face of :allure to receive complete revenues) of the permanent work force for casts in 1968-69 and 1969-70 of $80 028.00. These costs were so burdensome that it w8s necessary to terminate, on an emergency basis, 5 positiona of employees, ranging from the Dirac or of Public Works on down, prior to Christmas 1969. That caused a drastic shock in a small community, as can. well. be imagined. G. ELECTRICAL UTILITIES: Construction :f housing caused expansion of the electric utilities system to serve the new residen- tial areas. This imperative expansion occurred during a time when sale of bonds was Impo.sible, or close to it. (There were other complicating factors). It was riot possible to Install additions to the electrical distribution system by customary procedures. (i.e.$ by sale of revenue bonds to be discharged by the revenues from the new area). Therefore, it was necersary to Insist the developers install the electrical distributions system, area then the City agt.et- to purchase those facilities. The pre=sent coot of eft"r�rt tn^'.tzdl-n,, accumulated interest, is approximately $200,000.00. These commitments x111 be falling due in 1970 and will create a very serious financial burden for the City of Kenai from interest alone, if nothing else. H. CONTINUING EFFECTS RESULTING FROM FINANCIAL BURDFAiS OF EXPLOSIVE GROWTH: There are many intangible and less apparent costs or damages resulting from explosive growth ... costs which it is almost impossible to value in dollar figures. They are indi- cated on the financial summary because they do require considera- tion in any assistance the Legislature might provide for impacted areas affected by explosive growth. 1. One other burdensome condition is the delay of improve- ments which would have ordinarily been scheduled for within the City of Kenai. These programs are indicated in Para IV of the financial summary of costs. 2. Finally, the City of Kenai, because of the financial burdens of explosive growth and the continuing struggle to pay for past response to explosive growth, might not be able to take advantage of those programs and efforts to share local government burdens presently under consideration by the Second Session of the Sixth State Legislature. In other words, unless the City of Kenai can, by retroactive date, qualify for past help, it cannot receive a fair share of those programs available throughout the State. Not only must we meet the demands for services, which have benefitted the entire State, but to pay for such efforts penalize the City of Kenai when it cannot take advantage of the new programs. This would be VERY unfair, and I am sure, will not be tolerated by the Alaska State Legislature. -3- r Civilian Workf74 r,:e ; 3. /; f ;, A75 3,883 Employment 5=3`: 5,692 4,937 3,383 Unemployment 8 ,,2 5133 479 500 Percent of !,-xkfrhrce 9�0 8,8 12.9 Amt. of be-)- It pay,-,-snt.. 1.014` 4" 7 635 114A IMA tIFl.

MWX ROUGH DRAFT US LEGISLATORS DEAR SIR: You are aware that for many years we have urged an increase of services provided by the US Fish & Wildlife in the Kenai Moose Range. Long range planning has been in the process for many years and it appears that there is some movement towards this development. We feel there should be re-evaluation of this plan because of the developments that have taken place since the time the plan was originald put together many years ago. 0## Of particular concern is the new location of the Moose Range Headquarters. It is our understanding that it is proposed for Headquarters Lake which is a beautifull lake, abundant with wildlife that can be observed by easy access from a nearby road. Use of this lake by float planes and motorized craft will certainly disturb this now accessable wildlife domain. It is felt that with the development of the City of Kenai a facility could be made available which would certainly serve the purposes Of the Fish et Wildlife Department with little disturbance to nature and have room to expand as the need arises. As a matter of economics most local services for the Department will come from the City of Kenai. Use of the Kenai Airport will still be a pre -requisite and also of the future float plane basin. There are many #,# more factors which need to be taken into consideration and that is why we are asking you for a re-evaluation of this plan. Respectfully, James A. Elson, Comissioner Kenai Planning & Zonning Commission RE: A plea for help to Keep Alaska Clean. Would you or your organization:•.like to keep Alaska's highways and public places cleaned Would you please help this effort by urging the Alaska State Legislature to require returnable bottles or tax the non -returnable bottles and cans that litter our highways and streets? Haven't we all been concerned at seeing broken.bottles where children might be Injured? I am sure your group has felt frustrated and over- whelmed by the trash resulting from non -returnable bottles and cans littering our great State. The usual arguments against non -disposable bottles are: 1. To return to returnables would decrease employment.- No so, according to Crusade for Cleaner Environment. (If possible, a copy of Fact Sheet i4 will be enclosed.) 2. American people won't use returnable bottles -- if this is so, then a tax on disposable containers mould fund clean up employees for high- ways and public places. I would ask you to write to the Representatives and Senators in the Alaska State Legislature from your area. Please ask them to pass: a. Senate Bill 77 -- prohibiting sale of certain non -returnable beverage receptacles b. Senate Bill 86 -- sets up system for litter collection C. Senate Bill 87 -- taxing beverage containers. If possible, a copy of these bills will be attached. If you write to your Representatives or Senators, could you send me a copy of your letter? If you can't send a copy of the letter, then please just write? JAMES E.

Rbiasonable regulation of trailers including prohibition for commercial uses, provision for trailer residentialu5c, and exclusion of trailer residential use in certain areas. -- Is not this one of the toughest challenges which Kenai, at this point in its development, will face? 1) The attitude of the coj,.11, iission with the advent of another period of economic development. -- Itfill not the Commission have to be firm in insisting on a quality type of construction or development in order to assure the future of the community and not permit a "boomer" to come in with temporary structures to do a little bit of business and then leave? 3. Will not the Commission have to alert the Council to financial planning for a quick upsurge in population so that contingency budgets are available with possible extra assistance from the State on a formula I)asL-,? 4. In the event of increased economic development, will not the recreation budget require extensive upward revision and support? (Revenber that transient people soyiietiii'ies tend to be harder on facilities and possibly more damaging, and therefore, more patience is required to support continuing recreational programs). S. Designation. of parks and playgrounds. -- Are not parks and recreational activities the things that really attract people to a connunity? Witji best wishes for your future activities.

FISHER, CHAIRMAN December 9, 1971 Box 580 Kenai, Alaska "As a preliminary step to trailer regulation, and I repent, as a preliminary to trailer tegulation," declared James E. Fisher, Chairman of the Kenai Planning Commission today, "the Kenai Planning Commission approved the cont of prohibiting future location of trailers for TC- sidential use in certain central developed areas of Kenai. The prohi- bitions would cover less than an estimated 1/3 of the City." "The Kenai Planning Commission was concerned that trailers housing persons of limited financial -.eSOUTCes be assisted. However, indbcrim- inate and haphazard use of trailers throughout the City could raise fire insurance rotes or lower property values and would not necessarily provide low cost housing to needy people," explained the Planning Commission Chairman. "Trailer -x presently occupied, in the area in which future use of trailers will be prohibit-od, and legal trailer parks, will be permitted to continue UP.deT What is commonly referred to as "grandfather T#ItS".

"The action taken of the Kenai Planning Commission at its December 8th meeting was an initial stop for considering trailer regulation in certain areas in Kenai. It was decided that trailers would be regulated within certain areas of Kenai, but public hearings on the areas to be affected and some of the other aspects will be held by the Kenai Planning Commission early in 1972,11 concluded Planning Commission Clairman Fisher. IT SZ1aetal arGaS, the Kenai Planning Commission approved the concept of pjt2bJWAjn& gammercial use of trailers Existing commercial uses of trailers would be prohibited at such time as they were no able to pass inspects for fire or life safety regulations.

S'ncerely, 40rte► NICK BEGICH CONGRESSMAN NICK BEGICH ALASKA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WASHINGTON, D.C. 20515 Hr. John Shaffer Director Federal Aviation Washington, D.C. Dear Mr. Shaffer: Administration September 8, 1971 I am writing to you regarding the proposed construction of the Federal Aviation Agency Control Tower for Kenai. The recent air tragedy in Juneau dramatically points to the fact that Alaska airports operate at a dangerously low level of efficiency. Because air transportation is so vital to Alaska, safe and efficient transportation is needed. Recently two men were killed at the Kenai Airport as a result of a collision that could have been avoided if there was a Control Tower at Kenai. Recent communication with your office of Congressional Relations revealed that all contract bids for the construction of the control tower at Kenai must be received by October, and a contract decision will be made by Christmas. If present plans continue on schedule, completion date for the control tower at Kenai will be June of 1973. In my opinion, and in the opinion of the Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission, this timetable is unsatisfactory. Kenai citizens and Alaskans use the Kenai Airport frequently and their safety requires immediate acceleration of the construction timetable at the airport. I urge you to do all that is in your power to see that the control tower is completed as soon as possible. ,;.;., Sincerely, NICK BEGICH .av JENNINGS RANDOLPH, W. VA., CHAIRMA EDMUNDS.

Jaynes, Special Projects Co-ordinator For your information, the procedure for property sales such as we are considering on Lot 31, Section 31, T5N, R11W, S.B.M., should probably be to get permission to sell the land from the Planning Commission and the City Council and then advertise for a sealed bid sale of the land or a public outcry sale of the land. Public bid is required on sales of City property exceeding $1000.00 in a single transaction. This item is covered by City Code, sections 7-38, 7-79 and 7-40. The land in ques- tion is City land and we have not had a regular pro- ceedure on this type transaction as we have had very few of them; however, I might suggest that the Planning Commission and Council both be brought into the picture early enough to voice any objection to our proposed sale before we proceed that far.

HORNADAY KWIK-MEMO 11.11 Ai July 27, 1971 NEWS RELEASE Subsequent to the Assembly's introduction of Ordinance 71-21 (a borough zoning ordinance proposing to zone properties within the cities of Homer, Kenai, Seldovia, Seward and Soldotna only) it has been suggested that: the ordinance proposal is now law; and the proposal is no different frM 71-9 in that it zones land outside City limits. As such suggestions are completely in error the following info I =WtAon in provided. The allegation that Ordinance 71-21 became law via its introduction is pure fabrication. It should be noted that before an ordinance can be adopted, State law (AS 07.20,100) requires: a. Ordinance proposals must be advertized for public hearing giving at least 25 days notice of such hearing; b. A motion for the adoption of any ordinance must be made and seconded and; c. The motion must be adopted by a majority of the, Assembly (8 affirmative votes). An examination of the minutes of the Assembly meeting held July 20, will shoos that none of these actions were taken and therefore, the p.-oposed ordinance has not been adopted. Rather, as requir-,:?d by SIC -ate law, the Zissembly "introduced" the ordinance tklus authorising the Borough, Cle.rk. to schedule and advertize -),u_ -)I, -;_c hearin.c,,:. sc, that the Assen;ibly can decide whether to adopt or not to adopt the ordinance. As regards those suggestion}, e -,3t. property outside the cities is also being proposed for zoning via ordinance 71-21, they too are pure fabrications, apparently of someone who has not read the proposal. A niunerical examination of the sectioning of proposed ordinance 71-21 will show that a section number 20.25.025 is missing in the sequence, When originally proposed, it was this section entitled: "'U" Unclassified Districts" which would have zoned all land outside city limits as "U" Unclassified. To quote Section 20.25.025 as originally proposed and now deleted: 'All areas of the borough which are riot included within any other zoning district, (,'that- is, all lands outside the cities as all the land within cities are included in other zoning districtO are hereby zoned 'U" Un- classified." With the exclusion of Section 20.25.025 in proposed ordinance 71-21, the proposed "Unclassified" zoning of all proportion outside city limits is defeated. It should also be noted that Section 20.25.040 (Page 2 of 71-21) which states: "The Renai Peninsula Borough is hereby divided into the following zoned districts AS SHOWN ON THZ OFFICIAL ZOINING 11APS, which, together with all explanatory matter thereon is hereby adopted by reference and "declared to be a part of this chapter" is the section which attaches only the zoning maps submitted with 71-21 to the document and thus only zones land within the cities. I hope this explanation satisfactorily clears up.the misstate- ment submitted relative to 71-21; however, if anyone should have additional questions on the matter please don't 4esitAte to contact any member of the Borough Planning Commission or the Borough Planning Department.

RD: lrh i July 27, 1971 NEWS RELEASE FROM THE OFFICE OF GEORGE A. NAVARRE, BOROUGH CHAIRMAN Recent legislation (Chapter 84, SLA 71) provides for State assistance to organized boroughs and home rule cities (Kenai and Seward) for the construction of local service roads and trailsDuring November of 19 70 , State voters authorized a $6,000,000 bond issue for this program. This year's allocation to the Kenai Peninsula Borough is $303,102 however, $50,517 is reserved by the State as a contingency for project overruns. All planning, engineering and construction of these roads and trails must stay within this dollar limitation., Before initiating any projects the borough must prepare and submit to the State Highway Department a three year program of contemplated service road and trail construction projects. The program must be approved by the Assembly and submitted by October 1, 1971. Since this is the first year of the program the timing is very tight. We must move rapidly if any work is to be done t before winter. I am using this announcement as a means to reach as many people and learn of as many projects as possible. Proposal forms are available at the borough office for those who wish their projects included in the program. I urge everyone who intends to propose a road or trail to secure this form as soon as possible so that the necessary informa- tion can be secured in time for consideration. In order to meet the October 1 deadline and hopefully to be earlier, it will be necessary to have a deadline of August 20 for proposals. Proposals received after that date cannot be considered for this year's program. GAN :1 rh August 27, 1971 Borough Planning & Zoning Commission Box 850 Soldotna, Alaska 99669 ATTENTION: Mr. Ralph Darbyshire Gentlemen: The Kenai Planning & Zoning Commission requests a com- parative analysis of any changes, additions or deletions of the proposed Borough Zoning Ordinance 71-9 vs. City Zoning Ordinance. A section -by -section analysis is intended in this request. Please explain section 20.25.010, "to aid in the rendering of fire & police protection." Also in the same section "to facilitate adequate provisions for such community utilities and facilities as water, sewer, electrical distribution systems, transportation, schools, parks and in general, to promote public health, safety and general welfare." Also, on page 95, paragraph 2, and elsewhere, it is dealing with land outside the cities; it was our understanding Ordinance 71-9 dealt only with planning & zoning in the cities. This information will be greatly appreciated.

X - You recall that Alfred P. Steger of this office is familiar with the terrain in this particular area. It appears that a natural gorge on the east and the North Kenai Head paging project on the south have created such bluffs that the only feasible access route to roar bot 1,33, North Kenai Small Tract Area, is from the vast. Our Lends and Minerals Officer has rece+rouendod granting the oasonent since the lots affected are in a Public Service Site which is under the jurisdiction of this office and because paving the North Kenai Road has considerably reduced the usable aoreago in the tracts the easement will cross. Therefore, a 33 foot easosent for a road is designated from the W Corner of Lot 159 and running oast along the north boundaries of lots 159, 160, 161, and 162, Section 31, T. b X., R. 11 W., S. X.

DETACH THIS COPY — RETAIN FOR ANSWER June 22, 1971 Representative Tillion State Capitol Building Pouch C Juneau, Alaska 99801 Dear Representative Tillion: You are aware that for many years we have urged an increase of services provided by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife in the Kenai Moose Range. Long range planning has been in the process for many years and it appears that there is some movement towards this development. We feel there should be re --evaluation of this plan because of the developments that have taken place since the time the plan was originally put together many years ago. Of particular concern is the new location of the Moose Range Headquarters. It is our understanding that it is proposed for Headquarters Lake which is a beautiful lake, abundant with wildlife that can be observed by easy access from a nearby road. Use of this lake by float planes and motorized craft will certainly disturb this now accessable wildlife domain. It is felt that with the development of the City of Kenai, a facility could be made available which would certainly serve the purposes of the Fish & Wildlife Department with little disturbance to nature and have room to expand as the need arises. As a, matter of economics, most local services for the Department will come from the City of Kenai. Use of the Kenai Airport will still be a pre --requisite and also of the future float plane basin.

On information presented fromboththe Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Alaska Department of Fish & Game, neither department is stressing the fact that the Kenai River Bridge would make the migrating waterfowl more viewable by thepublic. This is an area which should be given more consideration by those responsible for game control and management in Alaska. 2. The Planning Commission is urged to start necessary procedures to set aside a sizeable area in the vicinity of the bridge which would be dedicated to environmental habitat -- more specifically, for resting areas for migrating waterfowl. 3. The Planning Commission should request the Alaska Department of Fish & Game to declare the areooff limits for hunting and possibly to construct fenses with look out points, with necessary signs warning people not to bother the birds. 4. Dedication of this type of environmental habitat certainly would SMA -40 the City of Kenai from a tourist point -of view. Further, it is probable that the designation of an area such as this would escalate the land values of private ownership in the area. 5. 1 would be very much opposed to constructing access ramps to the river near the bridge location. This would effectively destroy the use of the area for wildlife habitat. Access would be more appropriate through the boat harbor facilities. 6. Something should also be done in regards to limiting access from the river to the area which is to be so designated. 7. The intrinsic value of migratory waterfowl is self evident in Alaska. These areas for resting are rapidly retreating as a result of our modern technology. Not only is it worthwhile to the community as a whole to retain these areas but it is also economically beneficial to a community which has the foresightedness to plan and utilize these approaches. 8. Numerous cities in the United States have canneries, oil refineries and other different types of industrial plants. I would wager to say you can count on the fingers of one hand the number of communiti6a which have an area accessible for the public viewing of migrating waterfowl, once and, sometimes twice a year in large numbers.

This is the third or fourth letter I have written on the subject and I would think that both the City, the Chamber and the Planning Commission need to get cranking on this immediately: We certainly support the extra expenditures for the Moose Range but we want to make certain that the headquartes are located in Kenai.

Expansion of Court facilities and new State office building. We were very pleased to learn that the Planning Commission approved t37e plan for the expansion of the Court facilities and the construction of a building next to the existing courthouse. I have heard some static there is a possibility that Sol.dotna may be trying to squeeze some state offices into their State Library which is apparently supposed to be built this summer. I would suggest the City Administration check this out immediately. This would be very dangerous to our concept of a State office building in Kenai if this dere to happen. 2. Fire fighting school. Several local members of the petroleum industry have expressed interest and appreciation to the City and their participation in the fire training program. Pursuant to the City Manager's report to the Planning Commission, I would strongly suggest that we get on this project immediately. Two members ofthe Soldotna DCity Council have expressed interest in the fire training program and we sh should get the matter locked up before any problems develop. 3. Moose Mange Headquarters. I would suggest we support the moose range headquarters and insist the facility be constructed in Menai. Ile need to discuss what the correct procedure would be on this. If leased, I would think that the City Council, the CITY .Manager, and the City Planning Commission would want to get letters off to the congressional delegation, the Dept. of Fish and Wildlife �.md the rept. of the Interior encouraging this program and insisting upon the construction of the facilities in Kenai.

As an ardent conservationirst, I normally rush to the aid of any ondangered habitat area,, but I think that a bride crossing at the proposedlocation would in no way damage the wi I dl i fe resources an the Kenai River Fiats, and feel the State has taken into (*rtsidmtion such thus as navigation in the river and adequate protection of the areas alongside the road. It's a shame in many ways that the Kenai Peninsula received such a ,gess impact due to the oil field discoveries. but them isn't anyway to turn back the clock. And though I sympathize with the people at the Bureau of Sports Fisheries! I feel that we bettor approach the problem by strong safeguards and the setting aside of other large areas which have not yet felt the impact of people, Sincerely, Clem Ti I I iari Ci` cc Sharon Sterling Kenai April 1. ly7l, IRV Mr. Michall J. Pelch 2y90 Sorrel Sugene,, Oregon Dear Mr. Pelch: The City of Kenai may be interested in a trade. of City owned Lind for land that you. own in Section 2 within the City of Kenai. The reason for our interest is to obtain property underlain with a good gravel strata so we cau'develop, a city gravel pit. This pit could be screened from the existing roads and habitations in order to make it attractive as possible.' The City could offer in trade., land in one of several locations, owned by the City in fee simple title. Some of these might be as f ollows: 1. 40 acres - sec. 3., near the High School., mostly good highland, well drained., underlain with sand, all weather road, good timber. 2. 20 or more acres on the south side of the Kenai River. Frontage on Cook Inlets sand or sandy gravel sub surface, no timber. 3. 40 acres, See. 1, near Thompson Park, mostly well drained, sandy, gravel., sub surface., -,fair timber, same swamp. This letter is not an offer to trade, but rather to find out if you might be receptive to an offer. We would be interested in up to 40 acres. We would have to test the land in question for gravel and proper title, obtain surveys., etc. before a trade could happen. If you feel that you might be interested, please either write or call me at 283-7535. City of Kenai Box 580 Kenai, Alaska 99611 Thank You. GeorgeG /. Projectstor mrvh 26,► 1971 i _.

Of the several letters received in response to Commander, Seven- teenth coast Guard District Public Notice 02-71 of 13 January 1971, three objected to.the bridge, its route, or foresaw the needs of possible -future alteration. The first letter from the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife objects to alleged inter- ference of the bridge approaches and the development it would en- courage with waterfowl habitat. The second letter from the Kenai Historical Society objects to any encroachment on the "Barabas" archeological site. The third letter, from Mr. Waldo E. Coyle, while not objecting to the bridge, points outthat in the past can- necv tenders have navigated the river to point upstream from the p—posed crossing* Mr. Coyle implies that the vertical clearance provided in the bridge design would not be adequate,, were the ten- ders again to use the river.

GLOTFELTY - CITY MX4AGER SUBJECT: RE.)UEST FRO,'! 'IRS. VIRGIIIA STOCK DATE: FEBRUARY 26, 1971 Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Stock are presently operating a neighbor- hood garage sale out of the building that Mr. Kenneth Stock built this past fall on a building permit for a storage shed. I have visited the storage shed and visited with Mr. and Mrs. Stock at their home. They presently have a written request to the Council to continue the garage sale in the building until Mr. Stock nas a chance to build a new building which would conform to our building standards. The building which he built this fall does not conforn to the uniform building standards for a commercial building. P1r. Hackney, our bdilding inspector, has inspected the building and given Mr. Stock a list of reconciendations for improving the present structure so that it will meet building codes, but the request that we are now concerning ourselves with is a request to allow the garage sale to continue without conforming to the code. My recommendations are as follows: 1. That we allow Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Stock to continue the sale of the items that have presently been placed in the storage shed. 2. That as soon as the items that are presently there, are sold, that the building be closed until improve- ments are made to the structure to make it safe for public use and that we set a dealine for the closure of this storage shed until the new shed is built or improvements are made to the present structure. I believe the deadline should be the first of April, 1971. 3. That the Stocks not be allowed to place any new items in the building for sale. Request from Mrs. Virginia Stock Page two 4. That we encourage Hr. and 'Irs. Stock to build a new structure or improve this structure to meet codes before it is open on a penrnanent basis to the public. Thank you for your consideration on the above matter.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Kenai Code, Section 14-50.3 (e), replacement of the "official zoning map" of the City of Kenai is authorized and the planning and zoning commission believes such replacement to be essential for the orderly guidance and development of the community; and whereas, the zoning map adopted for December of 1963 is a part of Ordinance No. 56 of the City of Kenai, Ind has become so indecipherable as to be useless, and, WHEREAS, a precise definition of the boundaries of areas zoned under prior and existing comprehensive land use plans of the City of Kenai are essential for orderly development, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE KENAI CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, AS FOLLOWS: 1. That the "official zoning map" which has been designated in Kenai Code, Section 14-50.3 as "the official zoning map adopted for December 1963, as a part of Ordinance No. 56," is hereby found to be so damaged by additions and expedient alterations as to become indecipherable and unuseable for the purpose for which it was originally dedicated. 2. That it is essential that a workable "official zoning map" be available for use on a continuing basis by the Kenai City Planning (&) and Zoning Commission for all of its official actions and for official reference. 3. That that certain "official zoning map" attached hereto and 944escribedi'hereon with the following Nzrdzx language: "This is to certify that this official zoning map supercedes and replaces the official zoning map adopted for December 1963 as part of Ordinance No. 56 for the Cita of Kenai, Alaska" and identified by the signature of Mayor John Steinbeck and attested to by the City Clerk on the day of March 1971 is hereby adopted as the "official zoning map" of the City of Kenai. 4.

Februuy 18, 1971 C Tnander Seventeenth Coast Guard District P.O. BOX 3-5000 Juneau, hlaska 99801 Dear Sir: We have reviewed Public Notice 17-2-71 co =ruing the proposed bridge across the xenai River approximately 4.5 miles upstream fram the mouth of the Kenai Diver near Kenai, Alaska. We wish to make the following comients on its effect on the fish, wildlife, and envircn- mental values of the area: The Kenai River is used by anadromous fish during their mi.gm- tion. Many species of waterfowl use the proposed project area for resting and feeding during'tnei.r north and south migrations. It also provides waterfowl hunting during the fall of the year, and is unique in that it is the only easily accessible area of heavy waterfowl use on the Kenai Peninsula. Personnel of the Alaska Department of Fish & Game and the bureau of Sport Fisheries & 1%ildlife have conducted water- fowl surveys in the spring and have recorded up to 5,000 snow geese, 1,700 canaria geese, and 600 pintail ducks duMft individual surveys. The area is also used by widgeon and . T:mallard ducks and sand hill cranes. Approximately 50 oaf R E C E I V E D geese nest in the project area. FE3 2 ' 3%1 Project developmentt► should not affect the anadromous fia migrations. It will, however, reduce the size of the water- fowl use area thereby reducing the number of waterfowl. , AIDS N DISTRICT Industrial developwnt alcn€ the nighways near the bridge would eventually destroy this unique environmental area. it is believed that if the integrity'of this area is preserved it will grow in value to the people of Kenai as an i Tortant environmental study area as well as an important hunting and waterfowl use area. Therefore, it is requested that the. permit 4. for the proposed br-id,-e crossing, h..! --niec.

The proposed improvement begins at the terminus of the Soldotna urban project near the north city limit of Soldotna, pro- ceeds north and west 9.2 miles to the end of the urban section in Kenai at the intersection with Beaver Loop Road. The type of hivheray proposed will be an urban section adjacent to the Soldotna Urt,an project, 3.5 miles of 4 -lane divided rural roadway, lighting as required and the conceptual stage of relocation. Full control of access may be needed and interchanges should be considered providing such features are justified by future traffic needs. All available alternates within the study corridor as outlined on the attached sketch map will be considered. The Department of Highways will be considering the following points in determining the location and design of this new highway: 1. Fast, safe and efficient transportation 2. National defense 3. Economic activity 4. Employment 5. Recreation And parks 6. Fire protection 7. Aesthetics 8. Public utilities 9. Public health and safety 10. Residential and neighborhood character and location 11. Religious institutions and practices 12. Conduct and financing of government (including affect on local tax base and social service costs). 13. Conservation (including erosion, sedimentation, wildlife and general ecology of the area). 14. Natural and historic landmarks 15. Noise, air and water pollution 16. Property values 17. Multiple use of space 18. Replacement housing 19. Education (including disruption of school district operations). 20. Displacement of families and businesses 21. Engineering, right-of-way and construction costs of the project and related facilities. 22. Maintenance and operating costs of the project and related facilities. 23. Operation and use of existing highway facilities and other transpor- tation facilities during construction and after completion. This list is not meant to be exclusive, nor does it mean that each effect considered must be given equal weight in making a determination upon this particular highway. The Department of Highways inte,,,ds to schedule a corridor public hearing on this project as soon as all pertinent data is assembled and analyzed. Present scheduling indicates this hearing w,11-11 be held approximately September 1971. 'This meeting will provide ill interested agencies and i—n-dIViduals an opportunity to review and comment upon the proposed alter- nate highway locations, rhe purpose of this advance communique is to solicit the views of the State's resiurce, recreation and planning avencies and of those Federal ay',encies and local public officials and agencies and public advisory groups interested ii-� or affected by t',,e development or improvement of this !i,way with special emphasis on the social, economic and environmental prior to Cie selection of the various alternates. The Department feels that your office may be aware of existing or planned facilities that cnuld be,directly or indirectly affected by the propo4ed highway improvement and requests that you provide any data such as maps, plot -plans, reperts etc, that may be pertinent in our investigation of possible alternate alignments. We would also appreciate preliminary com- mftts to enable us to present more comprehen,,iive information at the hearing and to provide the background to make the most judicious recommendation as to alternate. If you have comments at this time or if you wish to be directly advised of the hearings or other future activity on this project, we would appreciate having your response by March 15, 1971.
