boat launching; and,
WHEREAS, parking fees in the past have been for a twelve (12) hour period but will
increase to twenty-four (24) hours for the new fee of $20.00; and,
WHEREAS, the increased fees will support r4ore waste collection and removal
activities by the City during the fishery; and,
WHEREAS, monthly rental rates at Vintage Pointe, the City's senior housing facility,

maintenance of the facility; and,
WHEREAS, in 2011 the City commissioned a Water and Sewer Rate Study to study the
City's water & sewer rate structure and to determine and recommend any changes to
that structure to ensure the utility can continue to operate and provide the necessary
funding to maintain its infrastructure; and,
WHEREAS, the Water and Sewer Rate Study determined that current rates are
insufficient to support operations of the fund and provide funding for infrastructure
maintenance and expansion; and,
WHEREAS the Water and Sewer Rate Study recommended annual increases in water
and sewer rates to ensure the financial stability of the fund; and,
WHEREAS, the FY2014 Budget includes rate increases recommended by the study.

Re: Resolution 2013 -27 - Increase of parking, camping, and boat launch fees during the
Personal Use Dipnet Fishery.
The purpose of this memo is to provide information related to the increase of parking, camping,
and boat launch fees associated with the Personal Use Dipnet Fishery. The FY2014 Budget
included a proposal to increase parking and camping fees from $15.00 to $20.00 for a twenty -
four (24) hour parking period on the City's North and South Beaches, from $20.00 to $25.00 for
overnight camping, from $10.00 to $15.00 for daily parking at the City's dock facility, and from
$20.00 to $25.00 for boat launch and parking. The following analysis is based upon 2012 data
from the fishery:

Estimating 2013 participant levels at those of 2012 and applying the increased fees will yield an
estimated $113,871 in additional revenue. The most recent City survey of participants showed
3% of the users were City residents, indicating that $3,416 of the additional review will be paid
by City residents. The same survey showed 4% of the users were Kenai Peninsula Borough (not
counting City of Kenai residents) residents, indicating that $4,555 of the additional revenue will
be paid by Borough residents. It is estimated that $105,900 of the increased fees will be paid by
non -City and non - Borough residents.
These additional fees have been proposed to pay the costs associated with increased efforts in
dealing with fish waste and garbage generated by the participants of the fishery.

Re: Resolution 2013 -27
The purpose of this memo is to provide support for passage of Resolution 2013 -27 that will
increase rents at the City's Vintage Pointe Senior Housing facility. Rents at Vintage Pointe were
last increased in July 2008, except for a change that only impacts those tenants that pay via credit
card. As an unsubsidized facility, rents must be sufficient to cover annual cost of operations and
to provide sufficient reserves for long -term facility maintenance. Long -term maintenance
projects in recent years have included facility window replacement, $111,000, dry sprinkler
piping replacement, $54,000, siding replacement, estimated to cost $260,000, and future boiler
replacement, estimated to cost $125,000.
The FY14 adopted budget, which includes revenue projections based upon a $50.00 per month
increase in the rents of each unit, will generate $10,410 for long -term maintenance projects.
Without this proposed increase current rental rates will reduce current long -term maintenance
reserves by $12,340 with no expenditure of funds for long -term maintenance. The increase is
needed in order to maintain the facility in its present condition for the center's current and future
residents.
Prior to recommending this rent increase, the administration commissioned an independent
appraisal to evaluate Vintage Pointe rental rates. The results indicated that current rental rates
are $74.00 to $153.00 per month below rental rates for similar senior housing units on the Kenai
Peninsula. A $50.00 per month rent increase represents a 7.38% increase on the least expensive
unit at Vintage Pointe. Inflation since the last rent increase has been approximately 12.3 %.

Re: Resolution 2013 -27
The City's consultant, CH2MHi11 completed a water and sewer rate study for the City in 2011.
The study concluded a schedule of rate increases is needed that based upon current operating
costs and capital needs of the Water and Sewer Fund. The FY2014 Budget includes year three
increase recommended for the fund.
Increasing rates will ensure the City has operating reserves sufficient to maintain and operate the
utility for its customers as well as provide matching funds for replacement and upgrades to the
utilities infrastructure. The combined rate for single family water and sewer service will increase
from $70.74 to $74.98 for customers paying by means other than credit card.
