During this time my 7 sons and one daughter have learned the value of hard work, and the importance of protecting our natural resources. The business has helped put them through college. Two are professors, three are business men, one is an occupational therapist, one a high school teacher and one an attorney. Some would like to continue on with the family fishing business and teach their children the same values they learned. Our business has contributed many dollars to the Kenai Borough and provided a great seafood for the citizens of our earth.

Gabriel, Sr.; Sandra Modigh; timnavarre @gmail.com Subject: Resolution 2013 -75 Kenai City Council members; Your proposal to introduce a resolution in opposition to an initiative to shut down the commercial set net fisheries is commendable and should be applauded. The movement toward an anti set net initiative is nothing more than a self serving move by the commercial sport guide community to get more fish in the river for their benefit. An initiative to shut down the set net fishery does nothing to address problems associated with increasing numbers of in- river users and the associated negative impacts to the King Salmon runs. Thank you for supporting biology based, sound fisheries management practices, and fostering a climate that is focused on the health of the in -river system, not special interests of the user groups.

Gabriel, Sr.; Sandra Modigh; timnavarre @gmail.com Subject: Resolution No. 2013 -75— Supporting comment from Alaska Salmon Alliance, Kenai Alaska, opposing initiative and supporting diversified harvest opporunities in Cl Mayor Pat Porter and Kenai City Council Members: The Alaska Salmon Alliance (ASA) representing Snug Harbor Sfds., Pacific Star Seafoods, Icicle Seafoods, Great Pacific Seafoods, all registered Alaskan corporations with plants and operations throughout the Kenai Peninula fully supports Resolution 2013 -75. ASA is also comprised of numerous fishermen supporters that reside on the Peninsula. Our companies and fishermen have for decades been economically dependent on the sockeye salmon production of drift net boats and shorebased set net independent family owned businesses on the Kenai Peninsula, as the main stay product that supports our operations. With declining production for set net operations due to lost fishing time from overly burdensome regulations, over 400 set net families still accounted for an estimated 35% of sockeye production, which paid $13 million to the fishermen. The commercial sockeye salmon fishery is the core fishery that is responsible for us being able to maintain plant operations on the Peninsula, and to attract halibut, black cod, and Pacific cod from this region, and to also attract salmon species from other regions, including Bristol Bay, the Yukon River, Kotzebue and Prince William Sound. This year, the Cook Inlet sockeye salmon harvest paid $37 million dollars to the combined fleet for a harvest of 2.6 million fish which weighed in at 16 million pounds. A similar or larger harvest is anticipated for 2014, and sockeye salmon markets remain strong. A May 2013 Northern Economics fisheries economic analysis of the Kenai Peninsula -based fisheries for the year 2011, commissioned by the ASA illustrates significant economic contributions to the diverse Peninsula economy: 3,600 fishing jobs, with overall Alaskan residency of 80 %; 1,600 processing jobs; $212 million first wholesale export value, all species; combined labor income to fisherman at $78 million; processing income, $30 million, for a total labor payroll of $108 milion. Combining the ports of Seward, Kenai, Homer and Anchorage and total landings of all species in these ports — they would rank as the sixth largest port in the US in landed value of species. During the period 1980 -2011, the accumulated harvest value of Cook Inlet salmon using 2012 inflation adjusted dollars was $2.15 billion. The ballot initiative to remove a meaningful and traditional resident -based sector of the Kenai Peninsula economy as part of an overall plan to reallocate to another sector based on questionable science, is a slap in the face to a long established Alaskan tradition of respecting your neighbor and his way of life.

Gabriel, Sr.; Sandra Modigh; timnavarre @gmail.com Subject: Set net initiative Dear Mayor Porter and Kenai City Council Members, I urge the passing of Resolution 2013 -75. The set net fishery has been huge part of the Kenai area since way before there was a City of Kenai or a State of Alaska. The socio, political, and economical contributions to the City of Kenai, the Kenai Peninsula Borough, and the State of Alaska, from the 100 plus year set -net community is at best immeasurable. We would like to thank Councilmen Gabriel and Molloy for sponsoring this resolution.

Gabriel, Sr.; Sandra Modigh; timnavarre @gmail.com Subject: Resolution 2013 -75 Dear Kenai City council members, I encourage you all to vote in favor of Resolution 2013 -75 tonight. While I realize that it is the Kenai's policy to remain neutral on fisheries allocation issues, this is a resource allocation issue of a different nature. The setnet ban initiative is founded on misinformation, and seeks to prevent the commercial user group from harvesting our resource while allowing others to freely harvest in the same area with setnets. This initiative would represent a shift by Alaska to resource allocation by ballot initiative —a practice that is against state statutes and is sure to spell tragedy for our community which, while rich in natural resources, lacks the populace to benefit from this type of resource management. It is important that we as a community continue to hold the state responsible for protecting the economy and culture of the communities that depend on these resources the most. Commercial setnetting has been a part of Kenai's culture and economy for over a century, and I implore you to support the continuation of an industry that benefits so many in our community, and to send a message to all that Kenai does not support this attempt to enact local and special legislation through statewide ballot. I look forward to your vote tonight at the council meeting. Thank you, Todd Smith Sandra Modigh From: Ted Crookston [tedcrookston @me.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2013 3:39 PM To: Sandra Modigh Subject: Set Net Issue Dear Kenai City Council Member: Subject: Resolution 2013 -75; Opposing Proposed Set Net Ban Initiative— Support of Sound Fisheries Management I enthusiastically support this resolution and urge you to vote FOR 2013 -75. I will be "attending" the City Council Meeting via the live internet link tonight and look forward to hearing the discussion. Comments: I and my extended family have lived in North Kenai on land purchased from the State of Alaska, which was made available to setnet fishermen, since 1965. We have invested not only our financial resources, but our very lives, spanning 4 generations, in this fishery for FIFTY YEARS (50 YRS). We hold both Kenai City and Alaska State Shore Fishery Leases. When I was boy, growing up, there was a sense of community pride that Kenai was an area that exported wonderful wild Alaska salmon from a vibrant commercial fishery. I am truly grateful to see efforts and actions being made to have that sense of community pride in this industry restored. I am very knowledgable from extensive first hand experience with both the history and the truth regarding the commercial semet fishery in and around Kenai. This is a lively, viable, sound, beneficial and necessary fishery for many, many people, the local communities that support them, and also the for the biological preservation of the salmon resource itself. The "proposed voter initiative" is abhorrent, deceitful and malicious and is calculated to employ general voter ignorance in order achieve a despicable hidden agenda. LIE #1: THE KING SALMON PROBLEM HAS BEEN CAUSED BY SETNETTING LIE #2: ELIMINATING SETNETTING WILL SOLVE THE KING PROBLEM I hope the Borough and Kenai City Council actions may the beginning catalysts for bringing forth the truth and fostering broad support for this vital and historical fishery. Thank you for your serious consideration.

Gabriel, Sr.; Sandra Modigh; timnavarre @gmail.com Subject: Resolution Number 2013 -75 Kenai City Council Members: We are not able to attend your meeting this evening; but, express support for Resolution Number 2013 -75 offered by Council members Gabriel and Molloy. The citizens, governing bodies and chamber of Kenai have been very supportive of the Cook Inlet setnet fishery throughout our family's nearly 40 years of participation. The issue we have all struggled with is sound, scientific fishery management in all the fisheries executed in Cook Inlet. The political management of fisheries will only result in loss to the resource; all participants; the communities of the Kenai Peninsula and its citizens; and, the state. The semet fishery in Cook Inlet is comprised mostly of generational fishing families who pioneered the Kenai Peninsula and remain as a vital part of our social and economic fabric. The initiative, which is absent economic, scientific or rational basis, is a punitive attempt to eliminate a fishery. Thank you for your consideration of Resolution 2013 -75 and we respectfully ask for your support and adoption.

Gabriel, Sr.; Sandra Modigh; timnavarre @gmail.com Subject: Support for Resolution 2013 -75 Dear City of Kenai Council Members, My name is Rob Grannum and I represent a third- generation Cook Inlet setnet family. Our family -owned operation has had the privilege and opportunity to contribute economically and culturally to the Kenai Peninsula and the City of Kenai for multiple decades and hope to continue to do for many more years. As such, I respectfully request that you support Resolution 2013 -75, opposing the proposed initiative to prohibit set nets in urban areas. This proposed initiative deliberately contradicts the State's history of sound fisheries management practices and the diversified harvest opportunities that exist in Cook Inlet. This initiative would have devastating and long - lasting impacts to the Cook Inlet salmon stocks, the City of Kenai, and the residents of the Kenai Peninsula. I appreciate your service to our community and respectfully ask for your continued support of our fishery.

This policy is reviewed and updated in order to comply with E -rate eligibility. At their meeting on November 5, 2013 it was approved by the Library Commission after being on their agenda for two meetings open to public comment. The policy was last updated in 2008. The changes to the policy include language that the library has installed minimal filtering on the public computers. Although this reflects a change in language it does not in fact reflect a change in practice. The filters installed comply with CIPA (Children's Internet and Protection Act) guidelines and have allowed us to benefit from the OWL (Online with Libraries) project of the Alaska State Library. This filter is a security setting in Internet Explorer that is set for Medium -High. This filter is also on all the staff computers in the City. The paragraphs deleted under Internet Offerings and Limitations were removed because they refer to in -house procedures that have changed and should not be included as policy.

Request for Lease Extension Lease of City Lands, Portion of Lot 3, Block 17, Original Townsite The purpose of this memo is to provide additional information in support of Ordinance No. 2730 -2013, which authorizes an extension and amendment of the above referenced Lease of City Lands without a current appraisal and finding it in the best interest of the City to deviate from the principles and policy of lease rates to allow for a lease renewal at an annual rate of $1.00 per year. The property and building have been leased at an annual rate of $1.00 per year for the purpose of providing a building to house the Fine Arts Center for the benefit of the local community since 1991. Prior to 1991, the purpose for which the Lease was issued was as a "meeting place and display area for crafts." The current request is to extend the Lease to December 31, 2020 under the same terms and conditions in order to justify future building maintenance and repair expenditures, satisfy multi -year grand funding requirements, and pursue future funding opportunities. The City's principles and policy of lease rates as outlined in Code require a fair return to the City's General Fund. To ensure a fair return, lease rates are based on fair market value as determined by a qualified independent appraiser and are 8% of fair market value. In the absence of an appraisal, the best available information on the value of the land area and building improvements is the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assessment, which is approximately $227,451.50 (see attached). Based on this value, the annual lease rate would be approximately $18,196.12. 8of118 The City's Code requires that any renewal lease be reviewed by the Planning & Zoning Commission as to whether the request conforms to the Comprehensive Plan and the Kenai Zoning Code. The Request has been scheduled for the December 11, 2013 Meeting of the Planning & Zoning Commission. The recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Commission will be provided in a supplemental memo at the December 18, 2013 Council Meeting. cc: Peninsula Art Guild, Inc.

As you may have noticed, the Kenai Fine Arts Center has undergone a substantial revitalization in recent months, with exterior and interior improvements as well as paving, all at the Art Guild's expense. The Kenai Fine Art Center has also instituted a series of free public art and cultural events every Friday evening. In 2014, we have scheduled a series of statewide juried exhibitions to showcase the Central Peninsula. All of this work is done without cost by the Board and volunteers and funded by our fund - raisers and donations. At this time, the total annual income of the Peninsula Art Guild is sufficient to maintain the premises and its utilities as well as fund our many free public events, but not more. Although our current lease with the City of Kenai expires at the end of 2015, we have requested that the City extend the lease at this time for an additional five years, with a new expiration date of December 31, 2020. We request this extension for several reasons. It is our intent to undertake extensive interior repairs, particularly installing a vapor barrier and new ceiling as well as general upkeep and painting, at the Fine Art Center in January 2014. After Spring breakup, we anticipate constructing a protected courtyard on the east side of the building where concerts and outdoor events can be held. This courtyard will be constructed of paver blocks in an area that is currently unmaintained grass and an old storage shed. This work will substantially upgrade the City's building and benefit the community as a whole. The amount of work involved will consume a very substantial portion of the financial resources of the Peninsula Art Guild. We also intend to construct an additional small office space inside the current building facility and offer its use without charge to various art and music related groups as well as the Historical Society on a non - exclusive basis. In addition, the Peninsula Art Guild would like to provide additional community outreach by providing already- requested workshops for senior, youth and other groups but we currently do not have usable space for such workshops. Providing those facilities will require building renovations for which the Peninsula Art Guild would likely require grant funding. To sustain and expand these programs and resources, we will need to apply for a series of grants over the next one to two years to further upgrade the facility and to provide multi -year program funding. In order to do this, we must demonstrate long -term control of the premises through lease. Your assistance is requested and appreciated.

The City receives revenue from the State of Alaska for fish tax collected by the State in two different methods. The Department of Revenue (DOR) distributes "Raw Fish Tax ", fisheries business taxes, fishery resource landing taxes, salmon marketing tax, and other seafood taxes from licensed seafood processors, floating processors, and seafood exporters, to eligible municipalities as prescribed in AS 43.77.060, The City's FY2013 share was $296,136 and was based upon 2011 collections by the DOR. The second method the City receives fish tax revenue is through the Alaska Department of Commerce Community and Economic Development (ADCCED). ADCCED receives 50% of the undistributed Raw Fish Tax from the DOR to distribute through a program know as the Shared Fisheries Business Tax Program. For the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area, which the City is a part of, the amount to be distributed in FY14 is $57,902.68. Eight communities will receive a portion of that amount with the City of Kenai estimated to receive $4,168.59. There are two methods of allocation for the Shared Fisheries Business Tax. The first method involves a lengthy application process in which the applicants must show the impact to their local community of the fishing industry. Once impact is shown, half of the total amount to be distributed ($57,902.68 for FY2014) is divided equally amongst the communities and the remaining half is distributed based upon the impact shown in their application. The second method permits all communities in Fisheries Management Area to elect an alternate method of allocation. This alternate method eliminates the lengthy community application process. Since inception of the Share Fisheries Business Tax Program in fiscal year 1992, the communities of the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area have selected the alternate allocation method. A resolution like 2013 -74 has been adopted every year since fiscal year 1992 and is a required step to elect the alternate allocation method. The alternate method elected by the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area for FYI will again include and equal distribution of one -half the total and the remaining half is distributed based upon population of the community. The eight communities in the Cook Inlet Fisheries Management Area are Anchorage, Homer, Kachemak, Kenai, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Seldovia, Seward, and Soldotna. 26 of 118 Suggested by: Council Members Gabriel and Molloy CITY OF KENAI RESOLUTION NO. 2013 -75 A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, OPPOSING THE INITIATIVE TO PROHIBIT SET NETS IN URBAN AREAS AND CONTINUING TO SUPPORT SOUND FISHERIES MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND DIVERSIFIED HARVEST OPPORTUNITIES IN COOK INLET.

On November 6, 2013, the Alaska Fisheries Conservation Alliance Inc. submitted a ballot initiative application that, if approved, would place an initiative on the August 2016 Statewide primary ballot banning set net fishing in five State designated non - subsistence areas including Cook Inlet in its entirety. Several of the sponsor's arguments for banning set net fishing in Cook Inlet and other areas are listed in the FINDINGS AND INTENT section of the initiative application, as follows: 1) Within non- subsistence areas, set net fishing is an antiquated method of harvesting fish that indiscriminately kills or injures large numbers of non-target species. 2) Within a non- subsistence area, the use of shore gill nets and set nets is wasteful of fisheries resources because they have a high mortality rate for fish that manage to escape the netting and because they produce a high amount of by -catch of non - targeted species compared to other more selective forms of fishing. 3) Shore gill nets and set nets have been banned in numerous states and countries. 4) There is significant pressure on fisheries resources in areas of the state designated of non - subsistence use, as these areas are proximate to the state's urban population centers. 5) Limiting the use of shore gill nets and set nets would contribute to long -tern conservation and development of fisheries and ensure consistency with the sustained yield principle. There are many reasons why it is in the best interest of the City of Kenai to oppose this initiative. Set gill netting has taken place in Cook Inlet for over 100 years. Upon Statehood, fish traps were banned and state fisheries were moved to open access, meaning that any individual could participate. In 1975, the State of Alaska instituted limited entry pennits for most State salmon 29 of 118 Resolution No. 2013 -75 Memorandum December 12, 2013 Page 2 of 2 fisheries. This is the system that is currently in place, meaning that there has not been an increase in number of permit holders in the commercial Cook Inlet set net fishery since 1975. The argument that set gill nets are antiquated and indiscriminately kill "non- targeted species" is unfounded and not supported by any scientific data. Although set nets in Cook Inlet mainly harvest Sockeye salmon, it is legal to harvest and sell all five species of Pacific Salmon including Chinook, Coho, Chum, and Pink. Other than legally harvested salmon, there is very little "indiscriminate killing of non - targeted species." Additionally, less than one percent (1%) of the Cook Inlet Eastside Set Net Commercial fishery harvest is Chinook salmon, which is the primary in -river target species. Although there are five non - subsistence areas listed in the initiative application, nearly all of the set net permits affected by this action are located in Cook Inlet. Not only would the elimination of the set net fishery in Cook Inlet harm the set net permit holders, their employees and families, but also it would harm the fish processers and many other businesses within the City of Kenai that rely on the set net fishery in Cook Inlet. Eighty -four percent (84 %) of the Cook Inlet Set net permit holders are Alaska residents and many of these small businesses are multi - generational family operated. This proposed initiative is very divisive and would pit neighbor against neighbor and geographical area against geographical area within the State. Since Statehood, in -state fisheries have been managed for maximum sustained yield. This management practice is a fundamental principal in the fully allocated Cook Inlet Fisheries. Banning set nets would not enhance this principal and, in fact, may reduce the ability of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game to manage for maximum sustained yield without utilization of the set net fleet. Since its founding, the City of Kenai has benefited from healthy well - managed salmon runs as a central part of its economy and quality of life for its citizens, businesses, and visitors. It is the policy of the City of Kenai, as recognized in Resolution No. 2011 -14, to support sound fisheries management practices and diversified harvest opportunities in Cook Inlet. This initiative targets one class of commercial fishers to be eliminated completely from their salmon harvest opportunity. Doing so will result in long -term and perhaps irreversible damage to Kenai's economy. We would appreciate your support for Resolution No. 2013 -75.

INLET. WHEREAS, the City of Kenai has benefited from healthy well - managed salmon runs as a central part of its economy and quality of life for its citizens and visitors for over one hundred years; and, WHEREAS, over the past several years, State of Alaska fishery policymakers have adopted regulations to increase opportunities for Alaska residents to harvest certain species of salmon, but have done so without regard to the impacts of those fisheries have on our community; and, WHEREAS, over the past several years, Cook Inlet commercial fishers have experienced substantial reductions in fishing opportunities that adversely impacted their businesses and our local economy, while other users have not been burdened by the same conservation or harvest reallocation measures; and, WHEREAS, the City has invested several hundred thousand dollars in an attempt to mitigate the impact of the resident -only fishery, by building infrastructure solely for the benefit of this fishery, often at the expense of spending capital on projects that would be otherwise utilized by citizens year around; and, WHEREAS, in addition to business opportunities for many citizens of the Kenai Peninsula Borough and the State of Alaska, the Cook Inlet commercial salmon industry is a critical component of our local economy because it provides jobs and is a reliable tax base on both real and personal property; and, WHEREAS, because it has been able to rely on a predictable stream of salmon harvested in Cook Inlet during summer months, the local seafood processing industry has been able to expand its season by months and now includes processing other species such as halibut and cod, as well as fish flown in from other regions of the State; and, WHEREAS, the local commercial salmon industry is a vital part of our local economy because it is supported by local commercial fishers, processors and the many vendors that rely on its business year around; and, WHEREAS, improvements in salmon handling and quality in both the commercial harvest and processing sector has resulted in salmon prices nearing 20 -year highs -- substantially increasing fish taxes to the Borough and the City of Kenai; and, 31 of 118 Resolution No. 2011 -14 Page 2 of 2 WHEREAS, adoption of regulations that significantly reduce the opportunities for Cook Inlet commercial fishers to harvest and process salmon during its traditional summer season, without a sound biological reason for doing so, will result in long -term and perhaps irreversible damage to our local economy; and, WHEREAS, the Alaska Department of Fish & Game, 2011 Upper Cook Inlet Sockeye Salmon Forecast indicates a commercial, sport, and personal use salmon harvest of 4.4 to 4.8 million salmon in Cook Inlet, most of which will be processed within the City of Kenai, and suggests managers have reached an acceptable balance between the needs of competing salmon harvesters. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, as follows; Section 1; Supports sound fisheries management practices in Cook Inlet specifically with respect to the Kenai River salmon runs; and, Section 2: Respectfully requests the State of Alaska Board of Fisheries to recognize the historical and economic significance of the salmon runs that return to the Kenai River by avoiding adoption of regulations that reduce opportunities for all Cook Inlet and Kenai Peninsula salmon harvesters and City of Kenai fish processors and other businesses without a sound biological reason for doing so. Section 3; Upon passage, a copy of this resolution shall be forwarded to Governor Sean Parnell, Alaska Department of Fish & Game Commissioner Cora Campbell, Alaska Board of Fisheries members (individually), Senator Tom Wagoner, Speaker of the House Mike Chenault, and Representative Kurt Olson.

The logic behind the initiative is flawed in several ways. First, and most important, if setnets were banned king salmon conservation would likely still be a problem. This is borne out by history. Before 1962 setnetting started annually about May 25. Due to king salmon conservation concerns the Alaska Board of Fish and Game delayed the central and upper Cook Inlet setnet opening in 1962 to June 8. Without waiting for possible stock increases from that effort, the Board of Fish and Game further delayed the setnet openings in 1964 to June 25. For 50 years now setnetters have not participated in harvests of early run Kenai River king salmon. Yet the early run kings are at a lower stock strength status than the late run king salmon. Second, king salmon propagation is at a lull statewide. Why then should local setnetters be targeted for elimination? Third, the largest king salmon have disappeared from the Kenai River in recent years. This Is almost certainly an effect of sport fishers catching and releasing smaller kings while retaining the largest kings. The trickle -down effect that has on all Kenai River king salmon numbers is unknown, but it has nothing to do with setnets. Finally, The Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF &G) has the authority to close fisheries for conservation purposes. They have often exercised that authority by closing Cook Inlet setnet fisheries. In 2012 ADF &G closed setnets in the Upper Subdistrict of the Central District for king salmon conservation for most of the season. They followed this in 2013 by closing the last three weeks of the setnet season, also for king salmon conservation. 35 of 118 Page -2- MEMORANDUM Resolution 2013 -081 Setnets are a valuable fishery management tool and king salmon make up less than one percent of the "eastside setnet" harvest. Rebuilding Cook Inlet king salmon stocks is a worthy goal and stakeholders have presented several ideas for public debate. Altogether banning a fishery would cause irreparable harm and should be opposed. Your support of this resolution is appreciated. 36 of 118 AN INITIATIVE TO PROHIBIT SET NETS IN URBAN AREAS A BILL BY INITIATIVE FOR AN ACT ENTITLED 1 "An Act providing for the protection and conservation of Alaska's fisheries by 2 prohibiting shore gill nets and set nets in nonsubsistence areas" 3 BE IT ENACTED BY THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ALASKA; 4 t Section 1. The uncodified law of the State of Alaska is amended by adding a section to 5 read: 6 FINDINGS AND INTENT. (a) The people of the State of Alaska find that. 7 (1) The state pemilts the use of shore gill nets and set nets, which is a method 8 of taking fish that involms anchoring a net perpendicular to shore. Fish swim into and are 9 entangled in the net; 10 (2) Within a nonsuhsistence area, shore gill net and set net fishing is an 11 antiquated method of harvesting fish that indiscriminately kills or injures large numbers of 12 non - target species; 13 (3) Within a nonsubsistence area, the use of shore gill nets and set nets is 14 wasteful of fisheries resources because they have a high mortality rate for fish that manage to 15 escape the netting and because they produce a high amount of by -catch of non - targeted 16 species compared to other, more selective forms of fishing; 17 (4) Shore gill nets and set nets have been banned in numerous states and 18 countries due to their indiscriminate method of take; 37 of 118 1 (5) There is significant pressure on fisheries resources in areas of the state 2 designated for nonsubsistence use, as these areas are proximate to the state's urban 3 population centers. The harvesting of fish in nonsubsistence areas requires more restrictive 4 and protective means than in subsistence areas in order to m;n;mi7r by -catch of non - 5 targeted species. Shore gill nets and set nets are particularly inappropriate in these areas of 6 high fishing pressure and the continued use of this method of take is inconsistent with 7 Alaska's constitutional obligation and commitment to sustainable fisheries; 8 (6) Limiting the use of shore gill nets and set nets in nonsubsistence areas as 9 provided herein will materially contribute to the long -term conservation and development of 10 fisheries and ensure consistency with the sustained yield principle; and 11 (7) While shore gill nets and set nets are occasionally used for customary and 12 traditional use or personal use fishing within nonsubsistence areas, those uses have a 13 minimal biological impact on fisheries, whereas other use of this indiscriminate method of 14 take in nonsubsistence areas has significant potential to hatm fisheries resources. 15 (b) It is the intent of the people of the State of Alaska that this Act prohibit the use 16 of shore gill nets and set nets in nonsubsistence areas of the state for all purposes, except for 17 customary and traditional use or personal use fishing. 18 (c) It is the intent of the people of the State of Alaska that this Act not place any 19 limitation on the legislature's or the Board of Fisheries' discretion to allocate fish among 20 competing users. 21 x Section 2. Article 6 of AS 16.05 is amended by adding a new section to article 6 to read: 22 16.05.781. Set gillnettittg in nonsubsistence areas prohibited. 2- B10612i . i (a) Except for customary and traditional use or for personal use fishing, a person may 2 not use a shore gill net or set net to take fish in any nonsubsistence area. This section shall 3 control over any other provision to the contrary. 4 (b) For purposes of this section, "customary and traditional" has the meaning used in 5 AS 16.05.9400, "personal use fishing" has the meaning as used in AS 16.05.940(26), "shore 6 gill net" and "set net" have the meaning as used in AS 38.05.082 and "nonsubsistence area" 7 has the meaning as used in AS 16.05.258(c). 8 (c) Nothing in this section shall affect the use of shore grill nets and set nets to take 9 fish in subsistence areas. 10 (d) Nothing in this section shall be construed as a limitation on the legislature's of the I 1 Board of Fisheries' discretion to allocate fish among competing users. 12 * Section 3. The uncodified law of the State of Alaska is amended by adding a new 13 section to read: 14 It is the intention of the people of Alaska that the provisions of AS 16.05.781, as 15 enacted, are independent and severable, and if any provision of AS 16.05.781 shall be held to 16 be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of AS 16.05.781 shall not be 17 affected and shall be given effect to the fiillest extent possible. References to Alaska Statutes 18 in AS 16.05.781 are as in effect as of September 1, 2013. 19 * Section 4. The uncodified law of the State of Alaska is amended by adding a new 20 section to read: 21 This Act shall take effect immediately upon enactment. 3- 39 of 118 THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 40 of 118 Suggested by: Administration CITY OF KENAI ELUTION NO. 2013 -76 A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA, APPROVING AMENDMENTS TO THE KENAI COMMUNITY LIBRARY INTERNET SAFETY POLICY.

The effect of which is to prohibit the Commissioner of Fish and game from opening the personal use fishery to a 24 hour per day opening by emergency order. Also included in Proposal Number 278 is a recommendation that the Commissioner be able to increase harvest limits if additional harvest is necessary. City Administration takes no position, nor makes a recommendation, on that part of Proposal Number 278. The Commissioner may already have authority to increase harvest limits by emergency order, but Administration has not researched that issue. If Council desires to support only the portion of Proposal Number 278 that prohibits the present practice of twenty -four hour openings by emergency order, and either not state a position, or oppose, increased harvest limits, the Council could postpone action on this resolution until the January 2, m2014 meeting. At which time the Administration would bring back a substitute ordinance which would include language stating Council's position. Thank you for your attention in this matter.

WHEREAS, the Kenai Spur Highway is an important and integral component of the Alaska Highway System serving residents of Nikiski, Kenai, Soldotna, the Kenai Peninsula Borough and visitors and tourists; and, WHEREAS, from 2000 to 2009 the Kenai Spur Highway from M.P. 2.8 -8.1 exhibited crash rates significantly above the statewide average of 1.176 crashes per million vehicle miles (MVM), between Sports Lake to Beaver Loop Road it is1.76 crashes per MVM and between Beaver Loop Road and Swires Road it is 1.91 crashes per MVM, both are above the upper control limit (UCL); and, WHEREAS, the Kenai Spur Highway MP 2.8 -8.1 ranks 2nd highest in the State for moose - vehicle collisions; and, WHEREAS, ADOT /PF provided a cost estimate to the Alaska Legislature for over $40 million to improve the Kenai Spur Highway from MP 2.8 -8.1 to meet future traffic volumes and level -of- service standards for a 20 -year design life; and, WHEREAS, the Alaska Legislature included $20 million dollars for the Kenai Spur Upgrade MP 2.8 -8.1 in a State general obligation (G.O.) bond sale; and, WHEREAS, funding of $20 million will not construct a roadway to meet future traffic volumes and maintain acceptable and safe levels -of- service through the 20 -year design life; and, WHEREAS, it is unacceptable, and poor practice, to design and construct roadway improvements that do not meet future traffic volumes and maintain an acceptable and safe levels -of- service through a 20 -year design life; and, WHEREAS, a five -lane design will meet future traffic volumes and maintain an acceptable and safe level -of- service through a 20 -year design life.

The Kenai City Council has been actively involved for many years in requesting that the State of Alaska provide funding for the construction of an upgrade project for the Kenai Spur Highway from milepost 2.8 to 8.1. This section of highway exhibits a high level of accidents, including the second highest incidence of moose - vehicle accidents in the State. Kenai Spur Highway between Kenai and Soldotna is a two -lane roadway sandwiched by five - lane roadways in both Kenai and 5oldotna. The highway is fronted by residences, businesses, vacant land, and properties with other uses. At present the level -of- service classification of the roadway is a "D ", on a scale of A -F, A being the best, F being the worst. This classification will only worsen over time and only roadway designs of four or five lanes will provide a roadway during a twenty -year design period which will maintain a "C" or better classification. Presently there is only $20 million available for this project, or roughly one -half of what is required to construct a five -lane roadway. The City should not settle for a band -aid project dictated by the available funding. Administration recommends that the City go on record as requesting a five -lane roadway and that ADOT /PF should request additional funding through the Legislature or through other funding sources. There may be a State GO Bond to support capital projects come out of the Legislature this year and if so, it will be in the City's best interest to have formally requested this project be constructed to a five -lane configuration. 301511.1 Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Craig, Senior Center Director Date: December 10, 2013 Total November Meal Count 2013 Served: Total Congregate Meals Served: 1,125 Total Home Meals Served: 2,106 Total November Meal Count 2012 Served: Total Congregate Meals Served: 1,118 Total Home Meals Served: 2,027 November volunteers provided 845 service hours. The senior center was not rented during the month of November. The admin. Assistant saw 37 seniors concerning various issues. 18 of these seniors were seeking information concerning Medicare Part D. We provided lunch for the Unocal Retirees Meeting. 22 retirees had lunch and the Admin. Assistant spoke about their insurance and how it was changing for 2014 as well as information concerning Medicare Part D. There was a question and answer period with handouts after her presentation. Hilcorp Corp, provided a wonderful dinner for our seniors. There were 210 seniors and volunteers that participated in the Thanksgiving Dinner. We were pleased to be called upon to assist in providing food for the fire fighters during a house fire on November 19. Earlier in the morning, one of our meals drivers had called in to inform us that a meal client's home had burned. As it turned out, the fire fighters were at the client's home fighting the fire. It was a very bitterly cold day and we were glad to be able to help. On Thanksgiving Day, Dave Merrill's family donated their time and served 25 seniors that came for the Thanksgiving potluck. The senior center provided the turkey and ham for the event. The senior center is a member of the Alaska Geriatric Exchange Network ( AGENET). This is an agency whose members are senior service providers from across the state. We meet monthly telephonically to discuss provider and senior issues and act as an advocacy group to educate the state legislators. AGENET has set two legislative priorities for this session: 1. Support an increment of $325,000 in National Family Caregiver Support Program grants throughout Alaska. 2. Support an increment of $545,000 in Nutrition, Transportation and Support Services grants throughout Alaska. This priority will benefit our NTS meal program. AGENET has also established two administrative priorities: 1. Work with DHSS to support an increment for Aging and Disability Resource Center expansion. This allows seniors to have an initial place to begin the process of qualifying for Home and Community Based Services. This should streamline the process. 2. AGENET will work with DHSS to allow Alaskans with Alzheimer's disease and related disorders to access home and community based services through the 1915(i) Medicaid option. All of these priorities are to provide support to seniors in their home for as long as possible, keeping them safe and independent. It is a cost savings to the state vs. seniors being in assisted living and or a nursing home. 104 of 118 PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR — CAPITAL PROJECTS MANAGER uuh� DECEMBER 2013 MID -MONTH TO: Rick Koch, City Manager 1 VVV FROM: Larry Floyd Acting Public Works Director /Capital Projects Manager P A DATE: December 11, 2013 t SUBJECT: Mid - Month Report; Public Works / Capital Projects Public Works: • APDES permit renewal application in progress. • Street Equipment Operator I recruitment. • Contract to use Cranes.

This compares to 115 hours last year during this time. Department staff spent a couple weeks during the month of November going through our inventory of various winter lights and displays, including installation along Willow Street, Airport Way, Kenai Spur Hwy, parks and City facilities. The department has an opening for an operator position listed through Job Service; position closes December 20th Other miscellaneous activities include: • Clearing sidewalk areas of ice and snow (City Hall, Visitors Center, Library and LH Park). Recent weather has made for challenging conditions. • Ice thickness was measured on the ice skating pond last week. We are up to 8% 10" but the recent warm weather has created some overflow. With the temperatures cooling, we will continue with the measurements and should be able to begin maintenance in very near future. • We have been in contact with the Kenai Golf Course and are waiting for several more inches snow before we begin grooming trails. Limited grooming has occurred at the practice field near the schools as an alternative place for people to ski.

FIRE DEPARTMENT MID -MONTH REPORT December 2013 The Calendar says it is close to Christmas but the weather recently has not agreed. Road conditions have been challenging but fortunately we have not had that many calls for car accidents. We hope things stay that way through the holiday season. The Fire department was again involved with the Christmas Comes to Kenai Parade of Lights and delivered Santa! BC Prior attended a week long training on behalf of the city for an "Exposure Control Officer" training. This week long intense class will help assure the safety of city employees and will help strengthen the safety program within the City. Near the end of last month we had coordinated training session with Nikiski Fire Department and Central Emergency Services. In addition to member from the three local fire departments, we had fire department members from all across the state attend the training. Two retired Chiefs, Chief Lasky from the Dallas area and Chief Salka from the New York Fire Department put on a two day "Five Alarm Leadership" training class here at the Challenger Learning Center. Bringing together years of experience from two entirely different departments, their presentation exposed that all departments are similar and that regardless of the size of your department, the challenges are the same. Call Volume: Total runs YTD 2012: 1145 Total runs YTD 2013: 1083 ( -62) Run volume for the department is within 6% last year at this time. We are continuing to stay involved with Safe Kids and doing car seat checks at the Fire Station. Kenai Peninsula College is still sending students to our station for their Paramedic ride along program. We hope that everyone and their families have a safe and happy holiday season. 109 of 118 THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 110 of 118 111 of ga 0 \ $ m m Cl) 04 OD V) m m ) } § 2 ) , ) z o o (9 0 } w ) § ( k k ) / k \ 2 / 2 6 $ \ \ j ^ \ .)
