City of SOMA New
Storefront Improvement Program
Matching grants fund improvements to businesses on the highways
_.
Cars cross the David Douthit Memorial Bridge in downtown Soldotna In July 2010. The Sterling
Highway in Soldotna has the highest traffic counts of any road on the Kenai Peninsula, making
Soldoma's downtown businesses highly visible to motorists.
By Stephanie Queen, AICP
KPB Region VP
n April 2011, the City
of Soldotna adopted a
new long -range plan,
Envision Soldotna
2030. Among the many
goals in the plan were several
directly related to creating a.
more vibrant downtown,
beautifying the highway cor-
ridors, and ensuring a healthy
economy by supporting local
businesses. Like many Alas-
kan communities, Soldoma's
commercial district has
formed primarily around two
State highways which bisect
the town. 'Envision' cap-
tured the community's desire
for a better first impression to
visitors, and a more vibrant
commercial core. The City
created a new Storefront Im-
provement Program (SIP), as
one effort to help achieve
these goals.
The SIP is a reimbursable
grant, which can fund up to
50% of the cost of eligible
improvements to businesses
in the target area, up to a
maximum of $5,000 per pro-
ject. The 2012 program was
limited to those businesses
located along one of the
City's two major highways,
and can fund a variety of
improvements including:
storefronts; signs and graph-
ics; windows; exterior light-
ing; canopies and awnings;
Painting and masonry work;
permanent landscaping; and
accessibility upgrades. The
SIP was designed to revital-
ize Soldoma's commercial
core by stimulating additional
private investment in local
businesses. By partnering
with local businesses to fund
exterior improvements, the
Program aims to boost traffic,
increase property values, and
improve the overall look of
the community.
The City began advertising
the program in January 2012,
by mailing brochures and
information directly to land
owners in the target area.
The local chamber of com-
merce also advertised the
program in their newsletter.
The initial response to the
Program far exceeded the
City's expectations, with
many worthy projects vying
for limited funding. So, the
administration went back to
the City Council to ask for an
additional appropriation —
which was approved unani-
mously - thereby doubling
the size of the program in its
first year. The City was able
to fund six projects, ranging
from new building facades,
improved signage, and land-
scaping, with a total City
contribution of $22,000.
However, these six projects
represent over $190,000 of
improvements, a huge return
on a relatively small invest-
ment.

City of Soldotna° New Storefront Improvement Program, continued
Several of these initial pro-
jects will not be complete
until next spring, but the first
project was recently com-
pleted. It included repainting
two buildings, adding trim
and architectural details, and
replacing a non - conforming
sign with a new, conforming
one.
So far the program is work-
ing well, and the City is get-
ting ready to open the pro-
gram back up to new round
of projects. The next step is
to seek out new funding
sources or methods (rather
than simply using City gen-
eral funds), to sustain the
program and allow it to
grow. The Storefront Im-
provement Program is just
one small step towards eco-
nomic development, but for
Soldoma, it's a step in the
right direction.

able through the Storefront Improvement Program.
River Terrace RV, 44761 Sterling Highway, completed Fall 2012 ($5,000 grant). Project included removing
exterior paint and re- painting building, adding window trim, reducing the size of the existing freestanding sign to
bring it into compliance, adding sign pole covers, and new sign graphics.
Mykel's / Soldotna Inn, 35041 Kenai Spur Highway, to be completed in 2013 ($5,000 grant). Project includes
new cedar siding on entire building, to match cedar railing put in in 2011. First floor of building was completed in
2012, with second story to be completed in 2013.

SIP PROGRAM GUIDELINES - 2013
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Storefront Improvement Program (SIP) is to revitalize Soldotna's
commercial corridors by stimulating additional private investment in our local economy. By
partnering with local business owners and lessees to share the cost of beautifying the exterior
of a business, the program aims to boost traffic, increase property values, and improve the
overall look and vitality of our city's commercial core.
The program was established to meet several goals of Envision Soldotna 2030, the City's long -
range plan, including:
- Promoting development of our "downtown area" to attract both visitors and residents;
- Encouraging redevelopment of key areas, particularly along the river and major highways;
- Ensuring a healthy economy by supporting a diversity of local businesses; and
- Improving the streetscape along the Sterling and Kenai Spur Highways.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The SIP is a reimbursement grant, which can be used for exterior improvements to businesses
in the City of Soldotna. The amount available for each property is 50% of the cost of eligible
improvements, up to a maximum of $5,000. Matching grants are paid upon completion of pre -
approved, applicant -paid work. Under no circumstance will grant funds be disbursed for work
completed before a Commitment Letter is provided. The amount of funding available for the
2013 program is $15,000, therefore the City anticipates funding anywhere from three to five
projects. Funds are limited, and grants are reviewed on a rolling basis. Applicants interested in
participating in this year's program are encouraged to contact Stephanie Queen, the program
administrator, as soon as possible to begin the process.
ELIGIBILITY
Eligible work: Rehabilitation of building facades visible to the street, including: storefronts; signs
and graphics; windows; exterior lighting; canopies and awnings; painting and masonry work;
permanent landscaping; and accessibility improvements.
Ineligible work: Funds may not be used for improvements that are not permanent or mounted
to the building, sidewalk, or parking lot. In addition, the following items are ineligible for
funding: roofs; structural foundations; security systems; interior window coverings; vinyl
awnings; personal property and equipment; sidewalks and paving (unless removing paving to
install permanent landscaping). In addition, funds may not be used for structures which are
non - conforming to current ordinances (for example a sign which exceeds the allowable height
or area), unless the funds are used to bring the structure into conformance.
Eligible participants include property owners and business lessees (with written authorization
of the property owner), located in the Commercial or Limited Commercial zoning districts.
Please contact the Planning Department to determine if your property is eligible.
Cil of Sold olna, 2013 Storefront Improvement Progiam Updated 12/20/2012
Page 12
Ineligible participants:
- Properties primarily in residential use (ex. apartments or condominiums);
- Structures not facing or visible from the right -of -way;
- Government offices and agencies (non - governmental tenants are eligible);
- New construction, less than 5 years old.
APPLICATION AND SELECTION
The first step is to submit an application form to the Planning Department. The form requires a
short project description and rough cost estimate of the work you plan to do. The City will
select projects that will provide the greatest public benefit to the community, as determined by
a selection committee. The City of Soldotna reserves the right to prioritize projects and reject
applications.
To select and prioritize projects, the selection committee may consider any of the following
factors:
- Creative value of the project;
- Current condition of the building /fagade;
- Code compliance issues;
- Feasibility of implementing applicant's goals within the specified budget and timeframe;
- Visibility of the proposed improvements; and
- The degree to which the project furthers the goals of Envision Soldotna 2030.
The program administrator will notify you whether your project was selected for funding. If
selected, you will solicit contractor bids, and sign a 'Letter of Commitment/ as noted below.
BIDDING
The City of Soldotna requires that you get one bid for each type of work you are doing. All
contractors must be licensed by the State of Alaska, and all construction contracts will be
between the applicant and contractor. Owner labor will not be reimbursed under the
program.
LETTER OF COMMITMENT
The next step is to submit all contractor bids to the City for final review. The contractor bids
will be considered by the City in determining the final funding amount for the project. The City
will then draft up a 'Commitment Letter,' which will outline additional terms and conditions of
the matching grant, and will serve as the legal commitment of both parties as to the scope and
quality of work, and the amount of funds committed. The Commitment letter will also set a
deadline for the project to be completed by, as agreed to by the applicant and City.
BUILD IT
After the Commitment Letter is signed by the City and applicant, proceed with construction of
your project. Please retain all invoices and material receipts during the project, as you will
need these later when you request reimbursement. Please also remember that only those
improvements outlined in the Commitment Letter are eligible for reimbursement, so it will be

your responsibility to keep sufficient records, if needed, to separate outwork which you may
have completed at the same time, but which was not connected to the grant.
REIMBURSEMENT OF FUNDS
Prior to reimbursement of funds, City staff will review all completed work for compliance with
the Commitment Letter. The City will verify receipts and invoices, and will issue a
reimbursement check to the owner for the amount indicated in the agreement, or 50% of the
actual project cost (if less than the amount indicated in the agreement).
The City of Soldotna has the authority to determine eligibility of proposed work and
confirmation of completed work. Certain work may be required or precluded as a condition of
funding. Participants will be responsible for obtaining necessary regulatory approvals,
including those of the Planning and Zoning or Building Departments when applicable. All work
must comply with city, state, and federal regulations.
GENERAL CONDITIONS
The following general conditions apply to all projects:
- Improvements funded by the grant shall be maintained in good order for a period of at
least five (5) years; graffiti and vandalism will be dutifully repaired by the applicant during
this time period.
- Borough property and sales tax must be current, and participants shall have no debts in
arrears to the City when the Commitment Letter is issued.
- Eligible properties qualify for a maximum of $5,000. You may apply more than once as long
as the building doesn't exceed the maximum grant amount in a 5 -year period. If a property
is sold and the new owner wishes to apply for the grant, the five -year time frame still
applies. The five -year time frame begins at the date the improvements are completed.
- The applicant must complete, sign and submit a W -9 in order for disbursement of funds.
TAX INFORMATION
You are urged to consult your tax advisor concerning the taxability of grants. The City of
Soldotna is not responsible for any taxes that may be imposed as a result of your receipt of this
grant payment (directly or indirectly). Grants may be reported on IRS Form 1099. The City
requires that you complete and return a Form W -9 (Request for Taxpayer ID Number and
Certification) prior to being reimbursed.

Project Description — Riverbank Stabilization
Kenai Landing, Inc. 2101 Bowpicker Lane, Kenai, AK 99611
KPB Parcel ID: 049- 101 -03104
The Permit Applicant is requesting permission to place materials and vegetation above the Mean High
Water Level (MHWL) to prevent further erosion of the Kenai River bank on the above- referenced
property. If unchecked, erosion threatens the stability of adjacent bank areas and a building foundation
which is located approximately 10 feet from the top of the river bank.
Proposed Bank Stabilization and Building Location Description
Project is located along the front (eastside) of the historical (unregistered) Libby - McNeill -Libby cannery
former administration building.
Cannery operations date back to the late 1800's. The building is estimated to have been built between
late 1920's and 1940 the building is 40.5'x 110' and is approximately 10 feet from the collapsed
riverbank.
NOTE: The property is private property as weal as the adjacent tidelands.
Area Proposed for Stabilization
The area of erosion is roughly triangular in shape (plan view) approximately 20 -feet long and 40 -feet
wide (at the widest point). The erosion does not extend below the MHWL of 19.1 feet.
The v- notched area of erosion is bordered on both sides by moderately vegetated and somewhat stable
bank areas. These surrounding areas will benefit from our proposed design as the new stabilization will
provide a solid shoulder and overlapping grow are for vegetation.
Proposed Design
Preparation of the site will consist of smoothing the slope with a mini excavator lowered by crane onto
the beach adjacent the v -notch area.
Next, a narrow trench will need to be excavated at the toe to allow for burial of the bottom edge of the
ANCORFLEX concrete mat and to anchor it and further secure it from sliding down slope, The trench will
be approximately 3 feet deep, 2 feet wide, and the length of the toe of the v- notch.
During excavation the spoils will be place into the voids and a silt fence will be placed below the toe to
prevent silt and debris from entering the river. The applicant proposes to fill in the v -notch area with
approximately 10 -15 cubic yards of suitable 3 "to 6 "minus washed rock, sand and gravel fill to restore
the bank slope. The materials will be lifted in purse sacks by crane (positioned upland)
The fill material will be covered with a permeable, woven geotextile cover and anchored with stakes.
The source of rock and gravel used to fill the v -notch will be procured from Davis Block Company pit in
Kenai, Alaska.
Once the geotextile cover is secure approximately 5 each ANCHORFLEX flexible concrete S ft. x 20 ft
panels /mats, each consisting of concrete multiple 1 -2 ft. blocks woven together by polypropylene rope.
The panels will be placed by crane and fitted over the geotextile to match the grade of the adjacent
banks and prevent loss of the fill materials.
The individual panels will be anchored with multiple duckbill or screw anchors with sufficient rope /cable
ends and tied together using polypropylene rope. A seeded burlap mat also may be installed over the
concrete ANCORFLEX mat to help fevegetate the stabilized area more quickly. Holes will be spiked
through the burlap and Willow shoots/ cuttings will be planted within the openings between the
concrete blocks.
Please refer to the attached drawings /schematics of the proposed design (plan and profile views).
Additionally, please see the attached photos and brochures.

KPB Parcel ID: 049 - 101 -03104
The Permit Applicant is requesting permission to place materials and vegetation above the Mean High
Water Level (MHWL) to prevent further erosion of the Kenai River bank on the above- referenced
property. If unchecked, erosion threatens the stability of adjacent bank areas and a building foundation
which is located approximately 10 feet from the top of the river bank.
Proposed Bank Stabilization and Building Locat`on Description,
Project is located along ti ie front (eastside) of the historical (unregistered) Libby - McNeill -Libby cannery
former administration building.
Cannery operations date back to the late 1800's. The building is estimated to have been built between
late 1920's and 1940 the building is 40.5'x 110' and is approximately 10 feet from the collapsed
riverbank.
NOTE: The property is private property as well as the adjacent tidelands.
Area Proposed for Stabilization
The area of erosion is roughly triangular in shape (plan view) approximately 20 -feet long and 40 -feet
wide (at the widest point). The erosion does not extend below the MHWL of 19.1 feet.
The v- notched area of erosion is bordered on both sides by moderately vegetated and somewhat stable
bank areas. These surrounding areas will benefit from our proposed design as the new stabilization will
provide a solid shoulder and overlapping grow are for vegetation.
Proposed Design
Preparation of the site will consist of smoothing the slope with a mini excavator lowered by crane onto
the beach adjacent the v -notch area.
Next, a narrow trench will need to be excavated at the toe to allow for burial of the bottom edge of the
ANCORFLEX concrete mat and to anchor it and further secure it from sliding down slope. The trench will
be approximately 3 feet deep, 2 feet wide, and the length of the toe of the v- notch.
During excavation the spoils will be place into the voids and a silt fence will be placed below the toe to
prevent silt and debris from entering the river. The applicant proposes to fill in the v -notch area with
approximately 10 -15 cubic yards of suitable 3-to 6 "minus washed rock, sand and gravel fill to restore
the bank slope. The materials will be lifted in purse sacks by crane (positioned upland)
The fill material will be covered with a permeable, woven geotextile cover and anchored with stakes.
The source of rock and gravel used to fill the v -notch will be procured from Davis Block Company pit in
Kenai, Alaska.
Once the geotextile cover is secure approximately 5 each ANCHORFLEX flexible concrete 8 ft. x 20 ft
panels /mats, each consisting of concrete multiple 1 -2 ft. blocks woven together by polypropylene rope.
The panels will be placed by crane and fitted over the geotextile to match the grade of the adjacent
banks and prevent loss of the fill materials.
The individual panels will be anchored with multiple duckbill or screw anchors with sufficient rope /cable
ends and tied together using polypropylene rope. A seeded burlap mat also may be installed over the
concrete ANCORFLEX mat to help revegetate the stabilized area more quickly. Holes will be spiked
through the burlap and Willow shoots/ cuttings will be planted within the openings between the
concrete blocks.
Please refer to the attached drawings /schematics of the proposed design (plan and protiie views).
Additionally, please see the attached photos and brochures.

Chrisco Cemetery
Shannon County, Missouri
Low Water Crossing
An existing low water crossing that serviced Chrisco
Cemetery consisted of many large precast concrete planks
placed upon a soil foundation. Over the years, the water
had undermined the precast concrete plank crossing,
causing it to fail.
When Shannon County received grant money to fix the
crossing, they worked with Contech to develop a solution
utilizing ArmorFlex Class 45S articulating concrete
revetment mats. The flexibility of ArmorFlex mats provides
better support than rigid concrete planks in a freeze -thaw
environment where differential settlement can occur.
The County's maintenance crew worked with a local contractor to prepare the foundation and install
the ArmorFlex system. Larger shot rock was used as a foundation and then soil placed above as a
base. A woven monofilament geotextile was then placed on the base prior to placing ArmorFlex.
The ArmorFlex Class 45S units were buried on both the upstream and downstream edges of the low
water crossing with shot rock placed on top of the anchor trenches for additional scour protection.
