Re: Ordinance 2795 -2014
The purpose of this memo is to recommend adoption of Ordinance 2795 -2014. Ordinance 2795-
2014 will provide funds for the acquisition costs associated with Lots 12 though 16, Block 3,
East Addition, Townsite of Kenai, also know as 600, 602, 604, 606 and 608 Peninsula Avenue,
Kenai, Alaska which was retained for a public propose by Council Ordinance 2791 -2014.
These five parcels contain various structures of which three are currently residents for three
renters. It is the City's intent to assist these renters in relocating to new housing. Time frame for
relocation is ninety days during which the City will not be charging any rents and will provide a
$1,000 moving allowance to current residents who vacate by November 30, 2014.
Once vacated, the structures will be removed and the lot will be landscaped in preparation for
use as a staging area during the bluff stabilization project. Total acquisition cost which include
payment of delinquent property taxes, relocation assistance to current tenants, removal of
structures, and landscaping is estimated at $36,535. Ordinance 2795 -2014 will provide funding
for this project and will replenish General Fund Contingency already authorized for the payment
of delinquent property taxes. Your support for this Ordinance is appreciated.

From Kenai Senior Center, Council on Aging
To Mayor Pat Porter & City of Kenai City Councit Members' OF KEaP
CC to Kenai City Manager Rick Koch
We, as members of City of Kenai, Council on Aging are writing this letter to express our concerns and
wishes for The Kenai Senior Center which belongs to the City of Kenai.
#1) We believe the problem with the leak in the solarium needs to be fixed ASAP by a professional
contractor. We also request the interior that was damaged by the leak be repaired and restored to its
original condition. We are aware that the city has worked on it several times, so perhaps it is time to
rethink how it is built. This is our number one priority. - --
#2) We believe we need ADA compliance toilets installed in both bathrooms, also upgraded stalls and
new wallpaper on the walls. We have a number of older (90 +) or not so stable seniors using our facilities
and it is very necessary to keep everyone comfortable and safe.
#3) We believe a study should be performed to evaluate present and future needs of the Kenai Senior
Center.
We understand Kenai City Council will be addressing Legislative Capitol Improvement priorities. We also
understand that the garage for senior vehicles is or at least has been on the list. We encourage you to
Put it higher on this year's list. In the meantime we would like to be able to park our senior vehicles in
the dry warm garage at the city shop. It will be better for the vehicles and much safer and better for the
passengers.
Other things we would at least like to talk about is the possibility of enlarging the building, perhaps - - -'
getting an architect to come and check it out to see what can be done. Some of us have talked about
adding an upstairs with an elevator that could be used for exercise rooms, game room, perhaps the
library, other meeting room, and some extra storage.
We are very grateful for our center. It is a beautiful place, we appreciate the new siding, new heated
sidewalks, and boiler, the ramp at the back of the building and all the other things the city does for its
seniors.

Mr. Ron Haberman, District Manager
United States Post Office
3720 Barrow Street
Anchorage, Alaska 99599 -0001
Dear Mr. Haberman;
September 19, 2014
For many years, the exterior grounds of our local post office has been an example of a
government facility well cared for. Local nursery's and individuals would even donate
flowers for everyone to enjoy. It was a pleasure to drive into the parking lot, visit with
local individuals and receive excellent services.
With the decrease of available funding for all United States Post Office facilities, it is very
apparent the exterior grounds maintenance has taken a back seat to service to customers.
This past spring, I arranged for a volunteer group to offer grounds maintenance that would
uncut trees, brush, fertilize the lawn, control weeds and plant flowers. All without cost to
the post office. I discussed this possibility with the postmaster, I had hoped this would be
the beginning of a "ADOPT A POSTOFFICE" project.
While Post Master Rivera seemed very interested, I understood that he would need to ask
permission from his supervisor. I than learned, that due to liability reasons it would not be
possible. How sad, for our citizens and your customers! While the grounds are free from
debris, the post office is no longer an attractive facility within Kenai.
If citizens can adopt highways, roads, flower beds, animal shelters, etc. why are United
States Post Offices also not a possible project? I can only see positive results for your
facilities, volunteers and the cities they are located in. There is nothing like local pride, we
want to be part of a solution and are willing to offer our time and energy to making Kenai
Post Office vibrant again.
I wo be happy t�ADOPT A POST OFFICE with you, let Kenai be the first!
