He reminded everyone that EDD has a web site for Peninsula businesses. He said he would like to see a (product) branding for our fish over here. Jordan commented that Resurrection Bay sockeyes are at the same time as the Copper River Brand and for some reason especially on the West Coast, the Cooper River sockeyes are more popular. He informed the board that Port MacKenzie had a chip ship in and soon they will have coal and other products moving out of there.

Nick Ranta said the committee are addressing the concerns of enforcement and would like to see everyone follow procedures like having a local business license. He said they have been successful in purchasing some extra smolt from Trail Lakes Hatchery. Last year the charter boats and other businesses all helped pay for the smelt. They would like to see the program continue to grow because there are a lot of changes coming in the future especially for halibut. They are looking for long-term solutions. Valdatta said the board should try to get a direct contact person regarding what is going on with the Tusturnena. He said some moving companies in Anchorage and other businesses are not aware that the ferry will not be coming to Seward. He said we should care about Agrium Kenai Nitrogen Operations shutting down. Ron Long Kenai Peninsula Borough representative said he concerned with some of the language in House Bill 24 - especially the port of call wording. He said Representative Paul Seaton would like the City to support this bill. The borough will be looking at an Ordinance for a borough wide bed tax. The proposal is 8% right now but it will probably be amended a few times before it is approved. Jordan asked what the rational behind the tax was and Long responded that we are looking at a $9 million deficit. Jordan asked ifhe supported it and he said in concept he does but he would like to hear more. March 1 and April 5 there will be public hearings but it would be a ballot initiative that would have to be voted on by the public. Altermatt asked for confirmation that it would be adding 8% on top of the City's 8%. Jordan added that Seward is a small community and 16% is too much. Long said it is a good question to ask, who will be taxed. APPROVAL OF AGENDA AND CONSENT AGENDA MOTION (Jordan/ Van Buskirk ) approval of Agenda and consent agenda Motion Passed, Unanimous UNFINISHED BUSINESS PROJECT LIST Altermatt said we just went over it last meeting pretty thoroughly. Altermatt asked if maybe someone from DOT could come down and talk to us. Gifford said we could ask but his understanding is the bid should go out in March for the 0 to 8 mile. Jordan asked if it would go toward town or out of town. Gifford said he thought it would be the whole thing the bridges were Phase 1. Gifford said he would see when would be a good time for DOT to come to meet the board. Van Buskirk told he would not be here for the February 16 work session.

They agreed they wanted to see it move forward in a responsible manner. CORRESPONDENCE, INFORMATIONAL ITEMS AND REPORTS no action taken January 25, 2005 letter from Elle Zemia Copy of announcement regarding naming the new South harbor area in The Seward Phoenix Log North Pacific Fishery Management Council, Draft Agenda, January 4, 2005 BOARD COMMENTS Hettinger said he just heard that the thrift store would be closing and that was not good news for the community. He wondered if anyone else had heard that. Nancy Erickson from the Phoenix Log said they had been notified about it this morning. Whitman thanked everyone for coming and informed the board that a Coast Guard boat would be at the dry dock and there should be a lot of crew members in town spending money at local stores. Van Buskirk expressed disappointment that the P & Z would want the uplands to be park land. He thought that would we totally ridiculous when it could be so widely used. Jordan thanked Ron Long from the borough for attending these meetings and keeping the board informed. She said she thinks fish restoration is important and was glad that some forward thinking was going on. She would like to see the board stay active and help with it. She also reiterated that she liked the multi-use plan for the uplands. Altermatt thanked everyone for coming and a special thanks to Mark Clemens and Nick Ranta. She said she was looking forward to continuing their discussions on the 16th. CITIZENS COMMENTS Ron Long thanked Jordan for the kind words. He said the assembly did spend a little bit of their discretionary budget because they were concerned about ground fish regionalization prospects. They got a report and with a quick turn around time and it looks like about the only affect on the borough was on p-cod. There may be a small Pollock component. If we were to weigh in at all, our position should be that we would benefit a little more with the scenario that goes for the longer qualifying period as l~Eq;) HEUU;:)HY qElOq;:)G +P--~ ""u U II",.... ,,\(\~ ::10 ~ .....,.. ~..~c::; ....t.......

Whitman, Deborah Altermatt, Roger Mercer, Andrew Hettinger Comprising a quorum of the Board; and Rick Gifford, Assistant City Manager Scott Ransom, Harbormaster Kari Atwood, P ACAB Secretary SPECIAL ORDERS, PRESENTATIONS, AND REPORTS Council member Valdatta commented that everyone should be working on keeping the ferry here in Seward. He passed out a copy of the compromise proposal from the Railroad for the uplands area in the north end of the harbor. Tougas asked if the Yacht Club was ok with this plan and Valdatta said yes and he added that he thought the Coast Guard would like to move over by the railroad dock.

He said there is a lot of talk about natural gas and he would like the boards feed back. Ron Long, Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly Representative, said the bed tax proposal still has a way to go and the discussions are on going including the option of making it seasonal. The bed tax will have to go to a vote so it cannot be changed until next year. He said the increase of the tax cap from 500 to 1000 dollars was tabled. The Borough Mayor has asked them to look at some other proposals first but they can bring it back from the table if they still feel it is necessary. House Bill 25, that would change the way unprocessed fish is charged was discussed and will have another committee hearing tomorrow morning. APPROVAL OF AGENDA AND CONSENT AGENDA MOTION (Tougas/ Lechner) approval of agenda and consent agenda with the removal of the February 2,2005 regular meeting minutes from the consent agenda. Motion Passed, Unanimous UNFINISHED BUSINESS PROJECT LIST, Tougas noted that AVTEC had received a grant for the fire training center over at SMIC. Dunham added that he meet with the Commissioner of Labor and he was pleased that this facility was going forward and said he would like to see a major marine training center. Gifford said the City is involved in the training center and he will try and get more information for the board regarding the progress of the facility. Dunham mentioned that Bev Dunham is looking at getting an All American City designation for Seward. Lechner added under marketing that there is a meeting Friday at noon regarding the branding effort. New uplands discussion & Name recommendations, Jordan said this was discussed at the work session and asked Ransom to give a quick update. Ransom said that when they designed the project that area was a fill area and they didn't do any more than that. There will be an opinion from the attorneys addressing ownership and what can be done soon, but parking will be allowed. Jordan said part of the discussion was the harbor area now is basically sitting on the same type of fill and that area could have many uses down the road. Long suggested that if the buildings were built on pilings they might be able to be approved immediately. Ransom said he had not heard that and added that one concern would be getting access to the breakwater rocks. Tougas suggested the board continue to look at this as a multi-use area and take the lead in gathering public comments on what should be happing with it. Jordan said she felt the board agreed and it should move to the top of project list.

Jordan said this resolution came out of the last work session and opened it up for discussion. Waliezer expressed concern that it was probably not very profitable and the city provides an excellent service and if it went out to bid an individual may cut service. He also pointed out that there is no grid or alternative to the lift. Tougas said it was his understanding that the approved budget allocated the purchase a new 50-ton lift. Gifford said it is included in the budget but that is why the council wanted this discussion before any purchases were made. Ransom added that he thought the harbor did about 295 lifts last year. Tougas wondered who would be making decisions regarding the interest. Gifford said it was his understanding that there was no obligation in seeing if there was interest and then the board could use whatever information was received to make a recommendation to Council. It was discussed if it would be in the City's best interest to privatize or not. They discussed weather it was an area to privatize or not and what would need to be done if interest was expressed. It was mentioned that maybe privatizing the 250-ton should be looked at as well. Motion to approve JordanNanBuskirk AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTAIN: Van Buskirk, Jordan Tougas, Waliezer, Lechner Altermatt, Mercer, Whitman, Hettinger none Motion Fails It was decided that a resolution in support of the City maintaining operation of the 50-ton travel lift be drafted at the next work session and then voted on at the next regular meeting.

Louis Bencardino, Alaska Railroad Corporation Representative reported that they were stacking material that is being dredged out of the harbor by the Corps and Wilder's subcontractor. They have taken out 60,000 yards, are still pumping, and will raise the road on Port A venue. Bencardino said they hope to have a permit for more dredging between the cruise ship and freight dock area. He said security cameras are being installed on a pole for the parking lot and the side of the building and dock security will be upgraded. He spoke about the activity on the dock. He reports that the town enjoys using the ARR building. Groups like the girls rowing team, playing baseball in the building, and Jennifer Headke and her group are painting a mural inside the building. He said next week a big new sign would be on the building. He reported that the coal conveyor could not be extended any further than it is now. Bencardino said that out of the clear blue a company from Canada was interested in the coal loading facility. 13 S! l! su uos!.Id aql pappu p.rnoq ;}q.L oWlOlS 13 l;}lJU P;}POl;} puq q::>U;}q ;}ql JO l;};}J 01 luql gU!AUS ;)lWS lU UO!SOl;} WOlJ S;}q::>U;}q ;}lOW gU!SOI lnoqu P;}l;}PUOM uuwl!qA\. oung;}q puq UO!l::!nllSUO::> ;)lWS Ol PUOl ;}l{lluq.L OP;}U!qwo::>;}q PInoqs puu ~U!ql awus ;}ql ;}l;}M ApnlS ;}::>uuss!uuuo::>;}1! selJO;) puu ){::>oG qpoN lS!I sam.Io!.Id W.Ial-l.Ioqs ;}ql uo luql P;}lOU SUM n lS!'] spafO.Id pUU SIUO~ SS3:NISml <I3:HSINMNil OSs;}u!snq P;}qS!uyun l;}pun sl::!;}!old loq.rnq puu spuuIdn JO Uo!ssn::>s!p pappy Alsnow!uUUil 'passud Uonow UPU;}gu lU;}SUO::> puu UPU;}gy JO IUAOlddu (.Iauq3;)'I/su~no.L) NO'I.LO'W Y<IN3:~Y .LN3:SNO':J <INY Y<IN3:~Y .>10' 'IV AOHddV auoN :~NrnY3:H :JI'IRild HO'.>I <I3:'I[l<I3:H:JS .LON SW3:.LI Y<IN3:~Y NO' .LN3:WWO':J N3:ZI.LI:J O){::>Ol ;}AOW;}l Ol l;}qW;}ld;}S U! ){::>uq ;}q Il!M.

Gifford said a Vista volunteer working on an economic development plan and he said one had not been hired yet. He said Shealy and Spanos had been working on the application. Ransom had lay downs regarding the East Harbor project. TNH will break these down for each project. Altermatt asked and was given an affirmative answer whether the harbor was still planning to do the D-E connection in-house? Ransom has to look at the timeline by the first of next year. The dredgers will be back in September and it should take a month to take care of a couple small areas that had to be delayed due to fishery factors. He spoke of a little sloughing off problem around X & Z. In answer to Tougas, Ransom said once X float is done then E F & J can be done. The board asked for an update by the next meeting from the Corps and Wilder. Ransom will have something by the next meeting. NEW BUSINESS It was moved by Tougas, seconded by Waliezer to approved the *March 2,2005 regular meeting minutes as written. RESOLUTION NO. 2005-02 FOR PURCHASE OF A 50-TON TRAVELIFT it was moved by Tougas seconded by Waliezer to move forward to purchase of a new 50-ton Travelift motioned failed following discussion. Altermatt withdrew her motion. Tougas spoke about the 50-ton Travelift and how the harbor department feels that Travelift has gone past its useful life and has indicated that it is a break-even operation. Private sector did not want to get involved with this. He said at the meeting it was decided to see if there was any interest out there. Lechner asked how long the useful life of a Travelift is when the City of Whittier is still using the one we sold them. Altermatt noted that, as far as Whittier goes, the lift is owned privately and is very limited in lifts per year. Whitman said rates would have to go up. Motor pool funds $30,000 raise rates 20% how much down for maintenance. Old machine gearbox everything has been rebuilt 30-year-old machine. Safe machine now, time to get a new one. Waliezer whether we need this machine or not and wondered if it could be postponed another year. Close enough to the end of its life; we need to move forward it would upgrade the dock. Mercer commented about the price of steel may be a factor because right not it is really fluctuating. Whitman questioned what the cost would be to have it refurbished. Ransom said the gearbox has been rebuilt, re-tuned just about everything. Altermatt said she had not realized the request was for a new machine and a new dock. Ransom said it would be approximately $220,000 machine and dock. Whitman said he did not think this request had been engineered out enough to deal with it. Altermatt was surprised about this, but would not recommend running a new machine out on that old dock. Whitman spoke negatively about the request. Altermatt withdrew her motion. Tougas this was budgeted in the motor pool fund to buy a replacement vehicle. Van Buskirk asked if there was any interest from Travelift to rebuild the machine. Ransom, 'ou S! l;:"lM.SUV 'Sl!UI!!

In answer to Tougas, she said the infrastructure meetings noted on the City Calendar are weekly staff meetings. She said department heads discuss ongoing projects and she would be happy to report the outcome of those. However, they are not open to public. Altermatt asked about a work session on July 13 scheduled for Harbor funding alternate sources. Ransom confirmed that it would be held on the 13th at 7:00 p.m. Vesel mentioned that someone might want to attend the council meeting on the ninth, as Mike Meads would be giving a report on the Ferry Study. Jordan asked about the Mile 0-8 road project, Vesel said that DOT said last week there would be a delay and would not be completing the project this year. In answer to Tougas, Vesel said the waterline project is also put off. Tougas asked if any funding was appropriated for the waterline. AItermatt asked for an up-date on the Vista volunteer and found that no one had the qualifications of grant writing that was sought after. She said that the City would be required to attend two-week management training in the Lower 48 in order to get a volunteer. Harbormaster Ransom asked Sweeney to introduce new Harbor employee Angela DeLoria. Harbormaster Ransom reported that the RFP for the piling had been opened at $437,455. Richard's Pipe and Steel, Inc. was the apparent low bidder and the engineers are checking the bid. Once checked, the order will be placed. In answer to a question, Ransom said the Navy ships will be coming to Seward around derby time but he did not think any would be in the harbor. He said they would most likely be too big to use the harbor. He reported that Quality Asphalt has loaded 40,000 tons of gravel across the dock. Whitman asked where the City and Corps stand on the upland area for use during the derby. Ransom said no parking would be allowed this year until we get the final sign-off from the Corps. Whitman wondered if Seward has a plan (schedule) of when things will be constructed. He said they (Seward Ships Drydock) are getting calls for use of X float. AItermatt remarked that we are having a moorage problem in the harbor this year and wondered about the east side of X float where the military has the whole 750' of dock exclusively. She said they are only using a portion of that dock and wondered, why with such a congested harbor it is [managed] like this for four 40' boats. Ransom said we would look at that in the next year. Ransom said that anchoring off on the buoys would not be allowed. Waliezer said you could make the anchoring work with cables and anchors.

Preliminary study on the piling shows that re-decking is feasible. · The Department of Economic Development $2 million grant for the T -dock bulkhead will be accepted at the next council meeting. · The 50-ton boatlift purchase proposal is to proceed. He said the rates would not be raised to fund the machine. The new machine is capable of lifting wider boats and has a higher clearance. Minor modifications to the dock were approved by Council. Ransom said the quote from Marine TraveliftTM was $227,758 plus freight. He said the old lift would be sold for about $15,000 to cover the freight. · Ransom reported that the bids were opened for the north harbor renovations project and Lash Construction was the apparent low bidder with $1,169,815.00 followed by Ruskin Construction, Harris Gravel and West Construction. · Ransom spoke about a Capital Project request for a $2 million feasibility study of the SMIC basin - to control the severe surge problem that makes using the North Dock unfavorable. He explained that the State would pay $1 million and $500,000 in-kind contribution bringing the City's share to $500,000. City Manager Clark Corbridge reported that the City is in preliminary discussions with the Coast Guard architect team from Juneau. He gave a brief summation of the Council work session. They discussed the role of boards and commissions. Some suggestions were: to reduce the number of board members; hold members to the rule concerning three consecutive absences and they are dismissed; hold the meetings on a specific day each month. A recommendation was made regarding hiring a clerical position for all of the boards and commissions of the city in order to have a secretary that worked for the boards and commissions only. CITIZEN COMMENT ON AGENDA ITEMS NOT SCHEDULED FOR PUBLIC HEARING: Rick Blythe, introduced himself as Chamber of Commerce board president, however, spoke as a private citizen said that most of the focus is on the harbor area and encouraged the board to broaden their issues. He spoke of a memorandum of understanding with the city for economic development. He spoke of the downtown business that are failing and that he felt has a broad impact on the community. Willard Dunham spoke about fish restoration. He said at the last council meeting he was surprised at the lack of interest in fish restoration when it brings so much revenue, tourism, and commerce to Seward. He agreed with Blythe that the board needs to broaden their focus. He said he would like the board to go back to more commerce and trade, including international trade.

CALL TO ORDER The regular re-scheduled meeting November 9, 2005 of the Seward Port and Commerce Advisory Board was called to order at 12:00 p.m. by Chair Altermatt. ROLLCALL There were present: Deborah Altermatt, Chair D.J. Whitman Andrew Hettinger Karl Van Buskirk, Vice-Chair Roger Mercer Ron Long ABSENT: Jerry Waliezer Comprising a quorum of the Board; and Clark Corbridge, City Manager Scott A. Ransom, Harbormaster Judi Sweeney, PACAB Secretary Angela DeLoria Buck, OAIII SPECIAL ORDERS, PRESENTATIONS AND REPORTS Louis Bencardino, ARRC, noted that as reported in the press, the ARR had above normal passenger service this year, with $3 million in passenger revenue. He said they are working on the building, painting the inside in time for the Christmas train and arts and crafts show, the SeaLife Center Christmas party and Port City Player's New Year's Eve Party. He said they are bringing in gondolas now and steel for West Construction. He said scrap iron from old Nash Road was picked up to be shipped out. He stressed how important it is for locals to have items shipped through Big Foot and Sampson Freight Company. They have good prices and save the cost of transportation between Seward and Anchorage. In answer to Long, Bencardino said passenger revenue was up with 8,000 more people. Ship count was down to 43 for 2006 and Norwegian Lines said they would come back as a "port of call in 2007." He said four navy ships would be coming next summer and that they really liked it here last year. Councilmember Valdatta, (arrived later in the meeting) Ron Long reported that the Economic Development District board (EDD) would meet here for their annual meeting on November 17 at noon.

Cloward said for some reason the Chamber was not counted as a key player in the planning of the Multi-Agency. Cloward said not able to voice anything at the meetings but is trying to stay involved without overstepping her bounds. She said there had been changes to the building the nature of the conference center. Cloward wondered if we are not supporting a bigger building than originally planned. P ACAB was invited to attend these meetings. Altermatt suggested some board members should be there to contribute. Harbor Improvement Infrastructure Ransom mentioned that local support is being used on the harbor expansion project like surveyor, Nick Cline, Hoogland's transportation business, hotels like Holiday Inn and local restaurants are being used in connection with this project. A preliminary survey of the area had been done for the 50-ton Travelift™. Timber piling survey first phase, then an RFP for the decking will be sent out. TraveliftTM delivery is about four months away. Next is a request for another $2 million grant for the sheet pile dock and new lift dock. Regarding the use of the little road near land leased by Kasischke, Ransom said it would be the future site of the boat wash down area and parking for the lift. He said we have a couple of vessels that we need to remove from the harbor and temporarily impound upland. Altermatt was concerned about land sitting without monetary gain. Clark said the City would be taking a more aggressive posture towards money owed in arrears to the harbor. He favored using a collection agency. Fish Restoration Cloward explained that we need to make sure stocks stay high. Mari-culture is working with the SeaLife Center, Inlet, City and the Chamber to improve fish restoration for Resurrection Bay. She said historically it has been too expensive for Cook Inlet. They need to make fish restoration more viable. They produce the sockeye run for Resurrection Bay. They may be able to put a net pen in by the sawmill to grow fish naturally, increasing their viability Cook Inlet Assoc. can harvest 50% to generate more revenue for the sports fishery. Long mentioned experiments with salmon that have helped them adjust from fresh to salt water. Hettinger said it could be marketed as natural fish released in the wild. VanBuskirk said raising hatchery fry is akin to hardening off plants. He said the fish would harden off in saltwater without predation and would have a higher survival rate.

The Railroad had to move the x-ray machine back into Warehouse; it can no longer be stored in a conex. The Kenai Cruisers have a sixty-foot sweep-rowing boat in the building from December 8-31. There is someone wanting to build between the two docks. The idea is to build a 150' x 250' structure for storage, as well as office space on the second floor. He said the vessels Norseman, the Crowley Barge and the Calisto are at the railroad dock; noting the railroad dock and the Small Boat Harbor are full. The crew spent money at the craft fair. Quality Asphalt has obtained area outside building filled with asphalt containers. Floor and walls inside the building are now painted and will look nice for the New Year's Eve Party. The Port City Players are putting that event on. Bencardino concluded that local photographer; Ron Niebrugge has nine pictures in the Alaska Railroad calendar. Altermatt noted that she saw a TV program in Nevada about the Alaska Railroad.

She felts as though after the City Council said they did not want to dissolve P ACAB, but there has not been progress on the City's part to realign and redirect the committee. Long agreed and recommended that a resolution be drawn up making P ACAB a seven-person board and able to see their own budget. Whitman agreed but said he was concerned with Altermatt being chair. If Altermatt was not going to meet with City Manager Corbridge about realignment then the rest of the board should move forward. Harbor Construction Update Agnes Stow, onsite inspector for Tryck, Nyman and Hayes gave a report on the project; fuel float has been moved and should have all utilities and the fuel line back on next week. All the concrete floats are in the water - J and F floats are in place. There will be a walk through to assess whether there was damage from shipping the floats. Piling on E float is ready to install. Lash Construction workers are going to take a holiday, and will be back in January to finish. In answer to Long's question when they can utilize E float, Stow said February. CORRESPONDENCE, INFORMATIONAL ITEMS AND REPORTS Tryck, Nyman and Hayes construction progress report, noted. BOARD COMMENTS Hettinger wondered what the City's status with the design plans of the Wesley Care Center. He wants to make sure that this facility was one the City needed, not just a building that Providence wanted. Valdatta said that there would be work session on December 9, to discuss the long-term care facility. He added that there would be someone coming from Seattle to do a presentation and discuss the environmental impact of the area. On-Going Projects and Goals Waliezer said he would like to change everything on the 'On Going Projects List" to reflect a proactive approach. He said the priorities should be rearranged. Most of the time we read them, sometimes add, and remove them, but not much else. Altermatt thought that was a good suggestion and maybe this could be fixed it at the December 21 2005 work session. Long agreed with Waliezer that we need to make a meaningful move forward in the next few months by making changes to short-term and long-term list. Mercer suggested that the lists have target dates with the most imminent at top. Roger Mercer spoke of the A VTEC program growing and the plans that will be brought to City Council referring to additional funding. Long responded to Valdatta's comments on the non-responsiveness of the City of Seward in regard to the Halibut Charter IFQ by stating that Seward is not eligible for the ...",,,,11111',,,,, ~,..,,~,,\'II :10 il "## ~..
