This property is located immediately to the north of Fifth Avenue, and immediately west of Float Plane Basin Road and the Kenai Municipal Airport. The property's topography consists of a drainage /wetland and well graded uplands. In the past the City has purchased properties though which natural drainages are located to protect environmentally sensitive areas and possibly provide public access through future trail systems. Future development of the Kenai Municipal Airport in the specific area of the float plane basin will locate airport improvements near the existing Airport property boundary in this area. Purchase of this property will provide additional property for airport use. The agreed upon purchase price is $160,000, and the value is to be verified through an appraisal. The Option to Purchase releases the City from any obligation to purchase should the appraisal be less than $160,000. Additionally, should the appraisal be in excess of $160,000 the seller remains obligated to sell for the agreed upon purchase price. Administration proposes to utilize funding in equal amounts from the General Fund and Airport Fund to purchase the property. Subsequent to purchase, a subdivision will be accomplished to delineate General Fund Property and Airport Property. Sufficient reserves are available in the General and Airport Funds for this purchase. Attached, please find an aerial photograph identifying the property and the approximate subdivision.
