City Manager Report
Administration
It's been a brisk November, and we've been tackling some big topics as we wrap up 2024.
The budget conversations have been going well with Council and strong public engagement.
Administration and Finance worked to present a substitute resolution that will be discussed at the
November 25 meeting.
Kat met with representatives from The Seward Company to discuss potential projects in the new cruise
terminal building, as well as a potential collaboration on the much -needed Public Works facility.
Kat also travelled to Kenai with Parks and Rec director Mel to meet with the Boys and Girls Club and
discuss the contract renewal for 2025.
And we've been continuing to work on the EPA grant for shore power to ensure that all the
documentation needed to finalize the grant agreement and receive the funding is completed by the end
of 2025.
On November 12, the engineers came and drilled bore holes for deeper testing on the Jesse Lee Home
property to determine the depths of the contamination. We will share the results and determinations
with you when we hear back from ADEC.
The City Manager and Deputy City Manager will be attending the AML Conference in Anchorage
December 9-12.
Administration is involved in discussions with the Alaska Railroad, the Federal and State DOT, and Tote
Maritime regarding Seward being the back-up port if something should happen to the Port of Alaska in
Anchorage. The conversations are ultimately about ensuring food security and critical supplies for the
state.
The following purchase orders between $5,000 - $30,000 have been approved by the City Manager since
the last council meeting:

rate on January 1, 2025 would complicate the tax process. She spoke to the complications of the
reservations for 2025 and recommended the changes take effect on October 1, 2025. She urged
council to modify the implementation date.

Susanne Reider, inside city limits, owned and operated a local hostel. She echoed the previous
comments from Kylee Lambert regarding Ordinance 2024-014.
Colby Lawrence, outside city limits, spoke in opposition to Ordinance 2024-014. He referred to
a laydown that he distributed to the clerk and council. He noted there would be quite a bit of cost
and work on the part of the business owners.
Nicole Lawrence, outside city limits, spoke in opposition to Ordinance 2024-014. She felt the
local businesses would be negatively affected. The tax increase could potentially impact the length
of stay in Seward. It would also negatively affect Seward as a winter destination. The
administrative burden on local businesses was not considered by the city administration.
Tom Tougas, inside city limits, spoke in opposition to Ordinance 2024-014. Tougas referred to a
laydown that he distributed to the clerk and council. He cautioned against a kneejerk reaction to
increased taxes at the borough level.
Billy Wolfe, inside city limits, spoke in opposition to Ordinance 2024-014. She recalled her work
history in the lodging industry over the past eight years. She noted that many visitors chose to stay
outside of city limits due to the reduced tax rate. The proposed bed tax increase would negatively
impact year-round businesses.
Bayleigh Smith, outside city limits, spoke about her experience attending the Boys & Girls Club.
She noted the outdoor toys and equipment were no longer available and the current selection was
very limited.
Christiana Smith, outside city limits, spoke about Resolution 2024-062 regarding the Boys &
Girls Club. She hoped the resolution would be pulled from the consent agenda and be postponed.
Smith noted the lack of an evaluation process for the services to make sure expectations were being
met. She was concerned when things were not written down in the contract.
Pamela Eiting, outside city limits, spoke in opposition to Ordinance 2024-014. She felt the bed
tax increase would be a step in the wrong direction.
Katrina Townsend, inside city limits, spoke as a concerned parent of a teenager attending the
Boys & Girls Club. She echoed the previous comment about shortage of toys and equipment. The
site was under construction which resulted in gaps in service for the teens.
Patrick Messmer, outside city limits, spoke to the challenges of living in Seward. The economy
would eventually spiral downwards, and the workforce could not afford to live here.
Matt Susko, outside city limits, spoke as a police officer for the city. He shared his personal
challenges of finding a house in Seward. He hoped for increased wages for city employees.
Nancy Hulbert, outside city limits, spoke to the housing challenges in Seward. She had seen

20

November 12, 2024 Volume 42, Page
work at the utility counter and front-line services. There was a crisis in staffing shortages and the
city needed to offer competitive pay.
Ristine Casagranda, inside city limits, hoped the bed tax ordinance could be pulled from the
consent agenda and discussed. She did not support the additional bed tax increase. However,
Casagranda could get behind the increase if there was a funding goal in mind, such as a community
center. On another topic, she noted the Alaska Municipal League (AML) website did not feature
any job postings for Seward.
Shane Hand, inside city limits, spoke as a Seward Public Employees Association (SPEA) union
representative. Hand also noted he was a city employee with the Public Works Department. He
addressed the struggle of living paycheck -to -paycheck. Hand spoke in support of the people who
work in Seward year-round.
Michelle Oliver, outside city limits, spoke to the challenges of living in Seward and finding
affordable housing. The majority of the homes in Seward were not owned by locals, and that was
a major part of the problem.
Ryan Anger, outside city limits, noted he was the Deputy Harbormaster. He spoke in favor of the
wage increase. Anger had lived in Seward for 25 years and noted it was very difficult to earn a
good wage.
Mayor McClure relaxed the rules to allow all the public comments to continue until 7.•46 p.m.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
Resolutions Requiring Public Hearing
Resolution 2024-059: Adopting the City of Seward 2025 and 2026 Operating Budget and Setting
the Mill Rate
This resolution would have its first public hearing tonight. The second public hearing would be
held on November 25, 2024. The final approval was scheduled for December 16, 2024
Motion (Osenga/Barnwell) Approve Resolution 2024-059
Sorensen thanked everyone for participating in the budget work sessions. The budget was a fluid
document, and this was the first required public hearing. Sorensen summarized some highlights
from the budget process that had contributed to this resolution.
Notice of the public hearing being posted and published as required by law was noted and the
public hearing was opened.
22
City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes
November 12, 2024 Volume 42, Page
Tom Tougas, inside city limits, referred to his laydown that he had distributed earlier tonight. He
spoke about actual sales tax and bed tax compared to the budget. Tougas referenced the Annual
Comprehensive Financial Report. He explained how various city administrations over the years
had raised electric, water and sewer rates. However, the administration would change and putting
the money back into the infrastructure was being forgotten. Tougas urged the city to fulfill their
promises before the rates were raised again.
Rhonda Hubbard, inside city limits, had been following the budget process. She applauded city
administration for laying the budget out to make it easier to follow. There were a lot of numbers
and a lot of things to consider including holiday pay and the retirement system. Hubbard hoped to
see a more comprehensive study than just the hourly wages. Hubbard wanted to ease up on the
expenses to reduce the cost of living in Seward.
Becky Dunn, inside city limits, addressed the lack of advertising for local jobs. Advertising with
the AML would be a great resource for this community. She spoke to the value of property tax
which wasn't often taken into consideration. As a small business owner, she appreciated all the
business she received from city employees.
Nicole Lawrence, outside city limits, appreciated all the work that was being done on the budget.
She appreciated the city employees and the high cost of living in Seward. Lawrence spoke to the
high cost of buying or renting a home in Seward. She noted the reasonable rental rates through her
real estate company. Lawrence tried to contribute to keeping prices down for renters. Overall,
Seward was a very expensive place to live. Lawrence disagreed with earlier statements that police
officers would not be able to buy a house in Seward. Wage increases were important, but should
not be a detriment to community members who own properties. She encouraged a closer look at
the budget.
Ristine Casagranda, inside city limits, wanted to bring attention to Skip Reierson's
correspondence to city council. She encouraged council to find a way to provide a 3 cent discount
year-round on electric rates. There was definitely a way to make that discount happen. Casagranda
reminded council that the city owned the hospital building and millions of dollars of medical
equipment. She lamented a previous council decision not to pad the MRRF. (Major Repair and
Replacement Fund)
No one else appeared and the public hearing was closed.
Finch mentioned the last budget process was on the conservative side. He would like to see future
projections with the sales tax. He supported the wage increase with the sales tax.
Bickling spoke to the city infrastructure and future projects. The generator facility was also old
and in need of replacement. These items were not currently in the budget, but administration was
aware of the issues.
Barnwell spoke to aging city buildings and facilities. He didn't feel the city was hoarding cash,
but rather thinking ahead to big improvement projects.

Wells noted his two laydowns that were available at the meeting tonight. He explained he was in
the lodging industry and had also reached out to people in the industry. Wells put a lot of time into
his research.
Sorensen invited Brian Hickey to speak to the electric operating budget.
Utility General Manager Brian Hickey addressed the correspondence from Skip Reierson. He
explained the electric operating budget, contributions to MRRF, and contracted services. He spoke
to Seward Electric being understaffed compared to other utilities. Hickey said that every penny
discounted from the rates would lead to a revenue loss of $550,000 dollars. They would have to
make cuts to compensate for the lost revenue.
Resolution 2024-059 would be carried over to the November 25, 2024 meeting for a second
required public hearing.
Council recessed the meeting at 8: 50 p.m.
Council resumed the meeting at 8: 56 p.m.
City Attorney Report
City Attorney Sam Severin explained he had to step out earlier in the meeting. He explained that
much of the attorney services were covered under a flat rate. Last month in particular was a good
month for the city to be operating on a flat rate. He updated council on the McDonald lawsuit and
the collection of attorney fees. Severin also provided an update on the abandoned vessel lawsuit.

for the introduction of the ordinance
Finch thanked Wells for his two laydowns tonight on the topic.
Wells explained his laydown and recommended forgoing a bed tax increase at this time.
McClure asked what administration what they would do if this ordinance failed. Sorensen said she
would figure something out.
Barnwell wanted to keep the conversation going until the next meeting.

to fund the wage study.

No: Finch, Osenga, Wells, McClure
Resolutions
Resolution 2024-060: Accepting the Proposed Classification and Compensation Study
Motion (Osenga/Wells) Approve Resolution 2024-060
Crites declared a potential conflict of interest due to her spouse being a city employee. McClure
ruled that a conflict existed and Crites was excused from discussion and voting.
Sorensen said this was a resolution based on the wage study that was presented at the recent work
session. This resolution represented an 8% increase. Sorensen clarified the difference between a
wage study and a compensation study. Since the Introduction of Ordinance 2024-014 had failed,
Sorensen asked council to postpone this resolution until the November 25, 2024. She needed time
to make sure the city could still pay for the wage increase.
Motion (Wells/Finch) Postpone until November 25, 2024

Osenga, McClure
No: None

Resolution 2024-061: Authorizing the City Manager to Establish a Full -Time Paid
Firefighter/EMT Position in the Fire Department
Motion (Wells/Osenga) Approve Resolution 2024-061
Sorensen invited Fire Chief Clinton Crites to speak.
Fire Chief Clinton Crites spoke to the situation of staff shortages and volunteer firefighters. He
read from council meeting minutes from 1960 that required paid fire fighters to cover daytime and
nighttime shifts. Now in 2024 that still hasn't happened. Ideally, Crites was hoping for not one,
but two additional firefighters to be added. Having a paid firefighter at station 24 hours a day was
essential for emergency services and quick response times. Also having someone at the station
around the clock was essential to keep an eye on the trucks, equipment, and maintenance issues.
25
City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes
November 12, 2024 Volume 42, Page
Crites invited Andra Woodard to speak. She was with the treasurer for the Seward Volunteer Fire
Department. Woodward spoke to the challenges of the department.
Crites spoke to the advantage of hiring two people at the same time, such as the shared costs of
training at the same time.
Wells moved to postpone the resolution and bring it back a revised version on November 25, 2024
for two additional firefighter positions.
Peck advised it might be easier to vote to approve this resolution tonight and direct administration
to bring back another resolution on November 25, 2024 for an additional firefighter.
Council voted down the motion to postpone the resolution and the main motion was back on the
floor.
Motion Passed Unanimous
Council directed administration to bring back another resolution on November 25, 2024 for an
additional paid firefighter/EMT position
Resolution 2024-062: Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into an Agreement with the Boys &
Girls Club of the Kenai Peninsula in the Amount of $170,000 and Appropriating Funds
Motion (Osenga/Wells) Approve Resolution 2024-062
Sorensen explained the agreement with the Boys & Girls Club. She asked council to postpone this
resolution until she and the Parks & Recreation Director could travel to Soldotna and meet with
the club.
Finch thanked the young Bayleigh Smith for speaking at the council meeting on the topic.
Warner asked administration to look into a couple key points in the contract such as transportation
and community representation on the board.

Resolution 2024-064: Authorizing the City Manager to Approve Amendment #1 to the
Independent Contractor Agreement with Selena Soto for GIS Technical Services
Motion (Wells/Osenga) Approve Resolution 2024-064
Community Development Director Daniel Meuninck spoke to Selena Soto's amazing work as
a GIS specialist. Soto started in the Community Development office scanning documents and then
flourished as a GIS technician. The quality of her work was higher than the work of other GIS
26

November 12, 2024 Volume 42, Page
technicians. Meuninck said other city departments had relied heavily on Soto's work. He compared
the rates of other GIS services compared to Soto's contract. As a very small town, finding another
GIS specialist would be a needle in a haystack.
City Planner Courtney Bringhurst said Soto was very skilled and knowledgeable in the GIS
field. She noted Soto did a better job than the GIS contractors. The contractors also charged more
and took longer to get results. Soto deserved a higher hourly rate.
Electric Operations Supervisor Taylor Crocker said he was responsible for 50% or more of
Soto's current workload. Soto's work was essential to the Electric Department in terms of
vegetation management and other data.
Finch thought the contract should be up for renewal before it was amended. He didn't agree with
sending $150,000 out of state. Finch wanted to stick to the contract until it was time to renegotiate.
Osenga said Soto's GIS work was a great service to the city, and the main point was saving the
city money.
Wells said he was initially against modifying the contract because it had already been signed.
However, he had learned that Soto was doing additional duties on top of her contract. Wells
empathized that he would also want to re -negotiate the contract if he was in Soto's place.
Meuninick said the city was being proactive by amending the contract to be competitive. He
wanted to maintain a long-term working relationship with Soto.
Motion Passed Unanimous

Warner said she wanted a formal discussion with the Chamber of Commerce about their goals and
which programs should be funded or removed.

Wells felt it was important and didn't want to put it off. He recommended the work session take
place as soon as possible.
Sorensen recommended 5:30 p.m. on Monday, November 25, 2024 for a Work Session with the
chamber. Council agreed that would be a good timeslot.
Finch requested Chamber of Commerce financial documents be brought to the work session.

CITIZEN COMMENTS
Daniel Meuninck, outside city limits, said the Comprehensive Plan surveys were out and there
was a kickoff event tomorrow at the Tidewater Taphouse. He noted the Planning & Zoning
Commission was tackling the housing issues at their next work session. Meuninck hoped for
community feedback on the housing discussion.
Morgan Woodard, outside city limits, thanked council for approving the one paid fire fighter
position. He loved his job as a firefighter but felt overwhelmed by his daily tasks. Having another
fire fighter position would make a huge difference. He encouraged council to consider adding yet
another position at the next meeting.
Patrick Messmer, outside city limits, addressed a previous comment. Messmer confirmed that a
new police officer would not be able to afford a home inside city limits. He felt the officer was
making a true statement earlier in the meeting.
Samantha Allen, inside city limits, thanked council and administration for approving the work
session with the Chamber of Commerce. She looked forward to bringing the financials and taking
a closer look at the marketing contract.
Christiana Smith, outside city limits, thanked council for their careful consideration of the
resolutions on the agenda tonight. She thanked Finch for acknowledging her daughter for speaking
at the meeting. She noted that council made decisions that affected the youth of Seward. She spoke
to the importance of a teen council and safe places for teens. On another topic, Smith said GIS was
no joke. GIS mapping was not going away, and it was a very useful tool. She encouraged council
to support the city's GIS technician.
Tyler Mallory, inside city limits, thanked council for approving the fire fighter position. He spoke
as the city's Fire Marshal and had seen firsthand Morgan Woodard's daily struggles as the lone
paid firefighter. The Fire Department helped each other out, but they were in dire need of more
firefighters. Mallory hoped council would look into the second firefighter position as well. On
another topic, he spoke in favor of increasing the bed tax. He didn't think the increased tax would
dissuade visitors from coming to Seward. Visitors expected to pay a lot of money on a trip to
Alaska.
Shane Hand, inside city limits, spoke as the SPEA union representative. He thanked council for
taking all the resolutions seriously. He spoke to the complexities of the bed tax situation and the
wage study. Certain people were worried about hardships, profit margins, or adapting to any type
of change. He appreciated everyone's time and advocated for the workers. He felt for those who
were struggling, but still remained dedicated to this community.

COUNCIL AND ADMINISTRATION COMMENTS & RESPONSE TO CITIZEN
COMMENTS
Sorensen knew this would be a long night and felt the budget cycle was well-rounded.
Crites thanked everyone who spoke tonight. She was looking forward to the work session with
the Chamber of Commerce. Crites addressed the average home price being $400,000 and noted it
was hard for people to live in Seward. She spoke from experience that the Fire Department had a
revolving door of volunteers. Seward was too big of a city to not have a 24-7 fully staffed Fire
Department. Crites provided statistics of paid firefighter positions in similar Alaskan communities.
Warner thanked all the citizens who submitted emails and made comments. Being a new council
member was exciting and scary at the same time. She thanked administration and the clerk's office
for the robust council packet. Lastly, Warner mentioned the upcoming PTA Site Council meeting.
Finch thanked everyone for coming out and speaking. He supported the employee pay raise but
still wanted to be conservative with the budget. He thanked the young Bayleigh Smith for speaking
and Finch now wondered where all the toys went.
Barnwell said it was a great meeting. He thanked all the people who came to testify tonight. He
congratulated the Fire Department for getting one new firefighter position. On another topic,
tomorrow was the Comprehensive Plan kickoff event. He encouraged everyone to fill out the
Comprehensive Plan survey.
Wells said it was important to fund the wage study. He would continue to push for that funding.
Wells would never ask an employee to take a reduction in health care or benefits in order to get a
pay raise. Lastly, Wells looked forward to the discussion on the Boys & Girls Club agreement.
Osenga thanked everyone for the comments and input. He thanked administration and fellow
council members for a good meeting.
McClure said this would be a good council meeting to watch on YouTube to get a feel for local
government. She clarified with the clerk the cutoff time for a council meeting.
Peck said the cutoff time was 11:00 p.m. and could be extended to midnight with a council vote.

Subject: Resolution 2024-066: Approving the Agreement with Robertson, Monagle
& Eastaugh LLC, for Federal Lobbying Services from January 1, 2025,
through December 31, 2026, for $96,000 Annually
Background and justification:
The City of Seward employs the firm Robertson, Monagle & Eastaugh LLC in conjunction
with Blank Rome Government Relations LLC (collectively hereafter known as the
Firms), as our federal lobbyists. The current contract expires on December 31, 2024, and
continuing to have the Firms represent the City of Seward in Washington DC to advance
our federal policy goals is beneficial for both parties.
The Firms have done an excellent job moving forward the City's interests and have been
very responsive to the City's needs and concerns since the inception of the original contract
in 1997.
The Firms have assisted the City in securing significant funding over the years from the
federal government for valuable public infrastructure projects and in drafting beneficial
legislative language. With many federal infrastructure projects likely forthcoming, there
is great value in continuing our relationship with the Firms, as they are very familiar with
our community.
The new agreement for the Robertson, Monagle & Eastaugh LLC has updated language to reflect
their relationship with Blank Rome Government Relations, Seward's evolving federal interests,
an increase in the annual amount to reflect inflation, and the renewal period of two years to align
with the City's budget cycle.

City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: November 25, 2024
To: City Council
Through: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
From: Taylor Crocker, Electric Operations Supervisor
Subject: Resolution 2024-067: Authorizing the City Manager to Purchase a 2024
Ford Bronco Sport for the Electric Department for Meter Reading and
Customer Support Functions in the Amount of $30,710
Background and justification:
The City of Seward Electric Department needs a reliable vehicle to support its essential functions,
including meter reading and customer support. After evaluating several vehicle options, a Ford
Bronco Sport was selected, as it provides the versatility and durability needed for the department's
operational demands, especially given Seward's varied and challenging terrain.
To secure the most cost-effective option for this purchase, the City leveraged Sourcewell, a
cooperative purchasing program that provides government discounts to ensure competitive
pricing. By using Sourcewell, we obtained favorable government pricing for the Ford Bronco,
allowing us to acquire it at a total purchase price of $30,710.00, plus applicable document fees.
Given our commitment to fiscal responsibility and effective service provision, we proceeded with
this single quote from Sourcewell as a sole source provider, meeting our requirements for pricing
and procurement efficiency. This approach ensures we have a quality vehicle in a timely manner,
without the need for additional competitive bids, as Sourcewell fulfills our criteria for cooperative
purchasing and government discount pricing.
This purchase will enable the Electric Department to maintain its service standards, enhance
customer service capabilities, and ensure reliable transportation for meter reading and support
operations.

To: City Council
Through: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
From: Taylor Crocker, Electric Operations Supervisor
Subject: Resolution 2024-068: Authorizing the City Manager to Accept the Proposal
from Marine Systems, Inc to Perform an Inspection and Make
Recommendations for Maintenance on the City's Six Diesel Generators for
$37,218.50 and Appropriating Funds
Background and justification:
The City of Seward relies on six Electro-Motive Diesel (EMD) generation units as a critical
component of its electric utility infrastructure. These units provide backup power and ensure
operational reliability during peak demand and emergency situations. Regular inspection and
proactive maintenance of these units are essential to maintain their functionality and extend their
operational lifespan.
Currently, the EMD generation units are in a condition that requires immediate professional
attention to prevent potential failures and inefficiencies. Marine Systems Inc. (MSI) is a
recognized leader in EMD maintenance and repair. The company has proposed sending a qualified
technician to Seward for six 12-hour days. During this time, the technician will:
• Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the six EMD generation units,
• Provide detailed recommendations for a proactive maintenance schedule, and
• Assist City staff in creating a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) tailored to the plant's
operations.
This project will ensure that the City's generation units remain reliable, efficient, and prepared to
meet Seward's power needs. The insights and SOP developed during this process will also
enhance the knowledge and capability of City staff, supporting long-term operational excellence.
Given the critical role of the EMD units in the City's power infrastructure, working with MSI
represents a vital investment in Seward's electric utility operations, safeguarding the reliability of
Seward's power generation assets. Funding for this project is available within the electric utility
budget, making it both feasible and necessary to proceed without delay.

2025/2026 Budget Transmittal Letter
To: Honorable Mayor McClure and City Council Members
From: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
Re: 2025/2026 City of Seward Budget
The 2025/2026 City of Seward Operating Budget and Six -Year Capital Improvement Plan is respectfully
submitted to you for your consideration. The budget includes the operating budgets for the General Fund,
the eight enterprise funds: Harbor, Harbor Seward Marine Industrial Center (SMIC), Parking, Electric, Water,
Wastewater, Healthcare, Seward Mountain Haven, and one internal service fund: Motor Pool.
Tax Rates
The City of Seward first implemented a sales tax in March 1982, when a 1 % sales tax was imposed to fund
the cost of local hospital operations and other local services. In October 1986, the sales tax rate was
increased from 1 % to 3% to offset substantial state reductions in State Revenue Sharing and to allow the
City to continue providing necessary public services. The sales tax rate was increased from 3% to 4% in
2003 and has not changed since. There is no change to the amount of sales tax imposed in the FY25/26
budget. Because the hospital fund has collected enough funds to cover debt services, the FY25/26 budget
shows a reallocation of half of a percentage of sales tax monies from the local hospital operations to
general local services with a focus on public safety.
The hotel/motel tax rate, or bed tax, is increased by 4% to a total of 8%. The bed tax was first adopted in
1996 and has been steadily increasing, reflecting strong visitor numbers in the past few years. The City of
Seward recognizes the need to diversify revenue in a manner that minimizes the burden on residents and
year-round community members, and an increase in the bed tax allows for that.
The property tax mill rate for Seward is 3.84 mills which, when applied to a taxable property valued at
$100,000, yields $384 in tax revenue. Seward's mill rate remains among the lowest in the Borough. From
1989 through 1996, Seward's mill rate was 3.0 mills. From 1996 to 2012 the mill rate was 3.12 mills, and
in 2018 it was increased to 3.84, where it is today. In addition to local property tax, Seward residents pay
property tax to the Kenai Peninsula Borough (KPB) for borough schools, landfill and borough operations,
and to Seward Bear Creek Flood Service Area (SBCFSA) to mitigate flood hazards.

General Fund Operating Budget
82
Resolution 2024-059
The 2025 General Fund operating revenue represents a 9% increase over 2024. The tax revenue line items
have been increased as follows:
• Sales Tax: The proposed sales tax revenue amount is $7,020,000 and represents an 8% increase
over the 2024 budget. Please note the budgeted sales tax revenue for 2023 was $6,500,000 and
we anticipate coming in over that budgeted amount. In FY22 and FY23 we saw sales tax revenue of
over $7.5 million so we are maintaining a conservative yet realistic increase.
• Hotel/Motel Tax: The hotel/motel revenue amount is $1,389,066 and represents a 52% increase
over the 2024 budget. This represents an overall increase in the Hotel/Motel (Bed) Tax from a rate
of4%to8%.
Revenue line items have been decreased in FY25 as follows:
• Jail Contract: $564,810 has been deducted from the revenue with the closing of the Seward
Community Jail
• Alaska Raw Fish Tax: Decrease from $400,000 to $150,000 to reflect the struggles that the fishing
industry is facing. This is a conservative estimate, but trends are pointing to a sharp decrease.
The 2026 General Fund operating revenue represents a $50,000 increase over 2025. The tax revenue line
items are increased as follows:
• The Camping Fees and Utilities were increased based on average annual increases in bookings and
cancellation fees.
Expenditures: $16,701,933 (Personnel - $10,275,634 & Non -Personnel - $6,197,622)
Personnel Expenses
The 2025 personnel expenses reflect an 8% increase in the personnel expenses over 2024. The major
factors for the increase are:
• Salary Expenses — in 2025 the following changes will be made:
o 8% increase in wages and the implementation of a new wage scale
o New firefighter position
• PERS — PERS liability continues to be 22%, which includes the current liability and past liability. The
percentage is applied to the salaries line items within each department.
• Health Insurance Costs — health insurance costs have increased by a conservative 10% for 2025.
This cost is negotiated annually, and we continue to keep it below the 10% mark.
The 2026 personnel expenses reflect a 2% increase in the personnel expenses over 2025.
The 8% increase in wages and an implementation of a new wage scale is in response to increasing cost of
living across the country, but especially in the Seward community. Seward's salaries were not competitive
across the Kenai Peninsula or the state, especially in our public safety departments. By adjusting salaries
with an average of 8%, the City is able to provide competitive wages. It does not make the City a top -paying
employer in the state or the community, but it helps bridge the gap.
83
Resolution 2024-059
Since 2000, City of Seward employees saw a collective 34.90% increase in salaries in comparison to an
88.24% increase in CPI across the same 24-year period. Over those 24 years, there were 13 years without
a Cost -of -Living Adjustment (COLA). This adjusted wage scale in 2025 and 2026 will bring Seward's wages
into a competitive range and catch-up current wages with the cost of living. This, in turn, will improve staff
retention, increase productivity, attract high -quality talent, strengthen the local economy, and enhance the
City's public image and trust.
General Fund Non -Personnel Line Items
The 2025 non -personnel line items have decreased by about 2% over 2024. The 2026 non -personnel lines
maintained from 2025 with a decrease of $40,000. These decreases are present due to diligent budgeting
of resources.
The 2025 general fund budget includes increases in the following:
• A CPI increase of 3% in the FY25 budget across most line items to account for inflation
• Additional funds in the City Manager's budget to hire a contract grant writer and administrator
• Additional funds in the Community Development department to facilitate and create the
Comprehensive Plan
• Incorporating ongoing costs of an upgraded Computer Aided Dispatch program for public safety
• An increase in funding to the Seward Senior Center of $25,000 over 2023
The 2025 general fund budget includes decreases in the following:
• Removing the $25,000 annual contribution to the Boys and Girls Club under General Services and
incorporating those funds into the contract with Boys and Girls Club under Parks and Rec. The total
contract will now total $170,000 rather than a combined $215,000
The 2026 general fund budget includes increases in the following:
• A 1.6% CPI increase on most line items to account for inflation
• Contractual renewals in the Informational Technology department for a multiyear contract renewal
of endpoint protection and managed detection and response software
The 2026 general fund budget includes decreases in the following:
• The Alaska SeaLife Center PILT payments end in 2025, decreasing the general fund budget by
$150,000
Budget Interfund Transfers
The following transfers affect the General Fund budget:
Transfers -in:
• 2025 $515,618 and 2026 $520,953 from the Boat Harbor Enterprise Fund
• 2025 $180,696 and 2026 $183,572 from the Seward Marine Industrial Center Enterprise Fund
84
Resolution 2024-059
• 2025 $33,934 and 2026 $34,477 from the Parking Enterprise Fund
• 2025 $1,311,146 and 2026 $1,311,724from the Electric Enterprise Fund
• 2025 $189,167 and 2026 $191,794 from the Water Enterprise Fund
• 2025 $132,392 and 2025 $134,110 from the Wastewater Enterprise Fund
• 2025 $90,000 2026 $90,000 from the Commercial Vessel Tax Fund
Transfers to Other Funds:
• 2025 $891,510 and 2026 $891,510 to the Hospital Debt Service Fund
• 2025 $26,000 and 2026 $26,000 to the Sewer Enterprise Fund.
Historically, the City of Seward General Fund would transfer sales tax revenue equivalent to one percent of
the four percent of Seward's sale tax to the Hospital Dept Service Fund to cover the bond payments and
capital for Seward Mountain Haven and Providence. Since the account has enough funding to cover the
remaining bond payments, we have allocated just half of the usual amount for capital at $891,510.
Enterprise Funds Overview
Harbor Enterprise Fund
The Harbor Enterprise Fund consists of the following cost centers: Float System, Wharves and Docks, 50-
Ton Boatlift, Harbor Electrical System, Harbor General, Harbor Administration, Harbor Debt Service, and

conducted on the east side of Resurrection Bay.
The City of Seward owns, but does not operate, the Syncrolift. The Syncrolift facility is operated through a
lease and a management and operating agreement. The costs associated with the Syncrolift in this budget
are associated with insurance, depreciation, amortization, and administrative costs allocated from the
Harbor Enterprise Fund and the General Fund, associated with managing the SMIC operations.
• The 2025 SMIC Enterprise Fund operating revenues represent a 16% increase over 2024
• The 2025 SMIC Enterprise Fund operating expenses before depreciation represent a 1 % increase

85
Resolution 2024-059
Parking Enterprise Fund
The Parking Enterprise Fund is established to create a funding source for replacement of existing parking
lots, including costs of maintaining and upgrading the parking lots in the harbor and downtown areas. The
primary revenue source of this fund is parking fees. The primary expense of this fund are maintenance and
repair of the parking lots and personnel costs associated with enforcement. Financial records for the
Parking Enterprise Fund are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting.
• The 2025 Parking Fund operating revenues represent a 24.3% increase over 2024, representing an
increase in enforcement.
• The 2025 Parking Fund operating expenses represent a 38% increase in expenditures due to full
staffing and purchasing of equipment.
• The 2026 Parking Fund operating expenses represent a 6% decrease under 2025.
Electric Enterprise Fund
The Electric Enterprise Fund is established to account for the provision of electrical service to the residents
of the City and other areas within the electrical service area. The primary revenues of the Electric Enterprise
Fund are charges to various user classes:
• Residential
• Small General Service
• Large General Service
• Habor Power Sales
• Industrial Sales
• Street and Yard Lights
Fund are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting.
The FY25/26 Budget proposes a two -cent decrease in winter rates effective October 2025 in an effort to
decrease the cost of living and operating a business in the City of Seward in the winter months. This rate cut
was made possible due to the decrease in administrative costs from the Electric Enterprise Fund to the
General Fund with the consolidation of positions, as well as cuts to the Electric operating budget. Capital
projects are not accounted for in this budget.
• The 2025 Electric Enterprise Fund operating revenues represent a 2.5% decrease under 2024
budgeted numbers
• The 2026 Electric Enterprise Fund operating revenues represent a 1.6% increase over 2025
budgeted numbers
• The 2025 Electric Enterprise Fund operating expenses before depreciation represent a 4.5%
decrease under 2024 budgeted numbers due, in part, to the reduction in transfers to the General
Fund
• The 2026 Electric Enterprise Fund operating expenses before depreciation represent a 1.6%
increase over the 2025 budgeted numbers representing a CPI increase

87
Resolution 2024-059
Beginning in 2014, the primary care clinic transitioned to a federally qualified health center and operations
of the clinic are accounted for in a separate special revenue fund which is not part of the City's budget
process. The Seward Mountain Haven Enterprise Fund was established to account for the accumulation of
resources to repay $27,000,000 in revenue bonds issued on March 18, 2008, to construct, equip, and
furnish a new long-term care facility.
These bonds were refinanced in 2016, with an outstanding principal balance on January 1, 2024, of
$12,350,000. The revenue source to cover capital costs and operational shortfalls, if any, comes from
proceeds of a .50% of a 1 % sales tax, equal to one-fourth of the General Fund's 4% sales tax revenue.
Bond covenants require the sales tax be made available first to cover debt service on long-term care facility
bonds.
Assumptions for the bond payment:
• As an optional prepayment explained in the amendatory loan agreement; The Municipal
Bond principal installments are due on or after August 1, 2026, are subject to prepayment in
whole or in part at the option of the City on any date on or after February 1, 2026, at a price of
100% of the principal amount thereof to be prepaid, plus accrued interest to the date fixed
for prepayment.
• We can assume that if the city wants to pay the bond after February 2026, the amount would
be $10,205,000 without the transaction fees.
Internal Service Fund Motor Pool Fund
The Motor Pool Fund is an Internal Service Fund established to accumulate resources to replace City
vehicles and heavy equipment, including fire trucks, road graders, snow removal equipment, fleet vehicles,
trailers, rescue and response vehicles, dump trucks, etc. City departments pay annual lease payments to
the Motor Pool Fund for the use of vehicles and heavy equipment, with funds accumulating to finance their
replacement. This funding mechanism reduces the need to borrow money to purchase equipment, saving
interest costs, and reduces the impact of large purchases on the annual operating budgets by spreading the
costs of the assets over their respective useful lives.
Motor Pool Revenue:
• $484,000 in transfers in 2025
• $489,000 in transfers in 2026
Motor Pool Expenditures:
• There are $1,811,430 in planned expenditures for 2025 and $160,000 planned for 2026.

Harbor Enterprise Fund
Harbor Enterprise Fund consists of the following cost centers:
• Float System
• Wharves and Docks
• 50-Ton Boatlift
• Harbor Electrical System
• Harbor General
• Harbor Administration
• Harbor Debt Service
• Accounts for harbor and marine services provided to the public in the
harbor basin.
Revenues are based on user fees and charges, and the Harbor Enterprise Fund
is maintained on the accrual basis of accounting. All revenues and expenses
are charged directly tothe cost centers to which they relate.
Harbor General and Harbor Administration accumulate costs which are related
to multiple cost centers ( i.e. billing, vehicle use, administrative services) and
these costs are then allocated out to the benefitting cost centers. The budget
accounts for only the costs ofthe Harbor Enterprise Fund.
In addition to this Fund, there are a number of related projects that are
accounted for in separate funds not included in the budget.
• The Harbor Marine Repair & Replacement Fund set aside resources to
replace existing harbor capital assets.
• The Harbor Revenue Bond Fund accumulates monies collected from the $3.
50 per person passenger transit fee, and 100% of those revenues are
utilized to pay for harbor bond payments
• The Commercial Passenger Vessel Tax Fund accumulates monies collected
from the State of Alaska's cruise ship head tax, and 100% of those revenues
are utilized for capital projects associated with improving services to the
cruise ships and their passengers.

Note*
It was decided not to continue this internal allocation within the SMIC enterprise fund. Historically, this was done because the SMIC General departm<
did not have revenue, so funds were transferred from the revenue -earning departments into SMIC General to cover operations expenses. SMIC Gener
has substantial revenue now that lease and boat storage is being coded there, so the internal reallocation is no longer necessary

Resolution 2024-059
Healthcare & Seward Mountain
Haven Enterprise Funds
The Healthcare Enterprise Fund accounts for operating and capital costs
associated with Providence Seward Medical Center (PSMC). PSMC' s
operations presently include the hospital and emergency room.
Beginning in 2014, the primary care clinic transitioned to a federally qualified
health center and operations of the clinic are accounted for in a separate
special revenue fund which is not part of the City' s budget process.
The Seward Mountain Haven Enterprise Fund was established to account for
the accumulation of resources to repay $ 27,000,000 in revenue bonds issued
on March 18, 2008, to construct, equip, and furnish a new long- term care
facility.

Resolution 2024-059
Motor Pool Internal
Service Fund
The Motor Pool Fund is an Internal Service Fund established to accumulate
resources to replace City vehicle and heavy equipment, including fire trucks,
road graders, snow removal equipment, fleet vehicles, trailers, rescue and
response vehicles, dump trucks, etc.
City departments pay annual lease payments to the Motor Pool Fund for the
use of vehicles and heavy equipment, with funds accumulating to finance their
replacement. This funding mechanism reduces the need to borrow money to
purchase equipment, saving interest costs, and reduces the impact of large
purchases on the annual operating budgets by spreading the costs of the
assets over their respective useful lives.

Through: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
From: Jason Bickling, Deputy City Manager
Subject: Ordinance 2024-014: Revising Seward City Code Section 5.45.015(A)
Hotel/Motel Room Tax — Levy of Tax, to Increase the Hotel/Motel Tax Rate
from Four Percent to Eight Percent, Effective January 1, 2025
Background and justification:
The hotel/motel room tax, also known as the "bed tax," was initiated by voters in 1995 (Initiative
Ordinance No. 95-01-INIT) by a majority vote. The tax was established at 4% and has not been
increased since the initiative passed. The bed tax is considered a sales tax, and, as a home rule
city, the City of Seward has the authority to amend the tax levy by ordinance.
The bed tax is a fee on the end user. Short term rentals and hotels/motels collect the bed tax from
visitors. They do not pay the bed tax they simply remit it to the city. No extra work is required for
those businesses to implement the change since the system to collect the bed tax is already in
place.
Past collection amounts for the City of Seward are listed below:
2023 - $840,428
2022 - $804,511
2021 - $713,633
2020 - $217,434
2019 - $591,674
2018 - $556,065
For the communities in the state that collect bed tax, Seward has one of the lowest rates. For
comparison, other Alaskan communities that impose a bed tax are listed below:
4% - Seward
6% - Valdez, Wrangell, Nome, Sitka
7.5% - Denali Borough
8% - Houston, Wasilla, Palmer (Mat -Su Borough), Fairbanks, Fairbanks Borough, North
Pole, Skagway, Yakutat
9% - Juneau
10% - Dillingham
12% - Anchorage, Bethel

HOTEL/MOTEL ROOM TAX — LEVY OF TAX, TO INCREASE THE
HOTEL/MOTEL TAX RATE FROM FOUR PERCENT TO EIGHT
PERCENT EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2025
WHEREAS, initiative Ordinance No. 95-01-INIT was placed before the voters at the
regular election in October 1995 and was approved by a majority of the voters voting on the
question, thereby establishing a 4% hotel/motel room tax, and creating Seward City Code
5.45.015, which provides the authority for the imposition of a hotel/motel room tax; and
WHEREAS, the revised preliminary 2025/2026 operating budget includes a
proposed 4% increase in the hotel/motel room tax, increasing the tax rate from 4% to 8%,
and generating an estimated $694,533 in additional revenues; and
WHEREAS, the City of Seward has one of the lowest bed tax rates of the Alaskan
communities that have a bed tax; and
WHEREAS, the City recognizes the need to diversify revenue in a way that minimizes
the burden on residents and year-round community members; and
WHEREAS, these additional funds would help the visitor industry pay for continued
support of Seward's destination marketing, additional infrastructure in visited areas, and
general services that are used by visitors and residents alike such as public safety.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY OF SEWARD ORDAINS that:
Section 1. The Seward City Code Section 5.45.015(A) is amended as follows:
Strikeout — Delete Bold Underlined — New
A. There is hereby levied a tax on all hotel/motel rent equal to four ei2ht percent of the hotel/motel
rent.

City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: November 12, 2024
To: City Council
Through: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
Subject: Resolution 2024-060: Accepting the Proposed Classification and
Compensation Study
Background and justification:
Currently the City of Seward has three pay scales — Administrative and Technical; Supervisors
and Advanced Technical; and Directors and Senior Managers. Our current pay scale is not
competitive with other municipalities across nearly all departments, especially in Public Safety
and the Finance Department.
Our Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) with the City of Seward has not kept up with the
Consumer Price Index (CPI) — inflation as felt by consumers.
CPI increase from 2000 — 2022: 88.224%
COLA at the City from 2000 — 2022: 34.90%
There were 13 years since 2000 with no COLA. In 2022, we authorized COLA increases and a
longevity structure for employees who are maxed out on the pay scale at P but decided not to
move forward with a pay plan restructure.
We are tasked with performing a wage study every three years. For the last wage study, we hired
GovHR to perform the evaluation for an expense of over $56,850. The results of that wage study
were implemented with RES 2021-004. GovHR evaluated the positions based on who was in them
through Job Analysis Questionnaires. Since that time, 15 jobs were sent back for being scored
inappropriately according to the job description and two positions were completely overlooked.
By performing the wage study in-house, we were able to minimize costs to the City and to
incorporate knowledge of the Alaska hiring landscape. We scored and evaluated positions not
based on who is in the position, but based on:
• How competitive the job would be if it was vacant and advertised publicly today
• The requirements of the individual positions in the City of Seward, recognizing that no
two positions in any city or municipality are the same
We removed the lowest grade for more competitive starting wages, and created a new grade for
higher positions, recognizing the variety in duties and responsibilities for department heads.
197
Resolution 2024-060
Wage Increase: 8% increase, including 1.5% COLA approved with RES 2023-055
We become one of the top 5 communities of our size in the state for wages, particularly in the
Police Department where we go from being in the bottom percentile of pay to the upper percentile
(10 out of 12 to 3 out of 12).
We become a competitive community in the hiring landscape of Alaska where a living wage for
a family of 4 is $44.79/hour with one adult working and $29.16/hour with two adults working
according to MIT.
This represents an 8% increase over the FY24 budget in our personnel cost for a total of
$757,685 in the General Fund across over 73 full-time employees.
Advantages to a competitive pay scale include:
• Improved employee retention and reduced turnover
o Higher wages keep employees and reduce the costs of turnover (training,
recruitment, etc.)
o Retaining employees keeps institutional knowledge around longer
• Increased productivity and morale
• Attracting high quality talent
o Offering competitive wages allows the city to attract skilled professionals who
might otherwise seek employment in the private (tourism) sector
• Strengthening the local economy
o Increased spending power of year-round locals
• Enhanced public image and trust
o Demonstrates that the city values its employees and is committed to providing fair
compensation - making the City of Seward a top employer in town

City Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: November 25, 2024
To: City Council
Through: Kat Sorensen, City Manager
From: Clinton Crites, Fire Chief
Subject: Resolution 2024-065: Authorizing the City Manager to Establish an
Additional Full -Time Paid Firefighter/EMT Position
Background and justification:
During the 2022 budget process, City Council approved one full-time Firefighter/EMT position
to begin in 2023. This was critically needed and achieved the desired effect of improving
maintenance and response in 2024. However, the fire department still lacks sufficient volunteers
to rapidly respond to emergencies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. At the November 12, 2024 City
Council Meeting, the Council passed a resolution to add another Firefighter/EMT position and
directed administration to bring back a resolution at the subsequent November 25 meeting for an
additional Firefighter/EMT position for a total of three full-time paid positions.
These positions are necessary for the health and safety of our community and their value is
overwhelmingly supported by historical data. This position will also help alleviate some of the
burden of the less demanding calls that create burn -out in our already taxed volunteers and exempt
staff.
The City of Seward Volunteer Fire Department has experienced a great turnover in volunteers in
the last 10 years partly due to housing, transient population, aging out, two-family income job
requirements, and a generational and sociological conditions change in the way the community
sees volunteerism.
There is still a need to have a rapid response immediately to fires and emergency medical incidents
such as cardiac arrest and fires where seconds and minutes have a great influence on the outcome
of that emergency and relying on volunteers to respond from home, get to the station, respond in
the apparatus can truly mean the difference in life and death.
Having paid personnel on duty ready to respond immediately with life-saving equipment saves
precious minutes, whereas the need for volunteer firefighters will continue and always be a part
of the City of Seward Fire and Emergency services. These paid firefighters also perform much
needed daily maintenance on the fire station and apparatus that otherwise administrative staff
cannot address due to other administrative and operational duties.

become the responsibility of the two exempt employees, the Fire Chief and Deputy Fire Chief or
paid overtime by non-exempt staff; and
WHEREAS, having trained personnel on duty ready to respond immediately with life-
saving equipment saves precious time; and
WHEREAS, the value of having full-time paid Firefighter/EMTs on staff is
overwhelmingly supported by historical data; and
WHEREAS, these paid firefighters also perform much needed daily maintenance on the
fire station and apparatus; and
WHEREAS, the need for volunteer firefighters will continue and always be a part of the
City of Seward Fire and Emergency services, and
WHEREAS, at the November 12, 2024 City Council meeting, Council also directed
administration to create a resolution for another position, making a total of three full-time paid
positions; and
WHEREAS, this position is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan in providing public
safety and the community's expectations that when they dial 911, they will receive prompt,
professional fire and emergency services.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY

Memorandum
Date: November 25, 2024
To: City Council
From: Jason Bickling, Deputy City Manager
RE: Discuss the Heat Loop Project and Ad Hoc Heat Loop Committee
BACKGROUND:
The Heat Loop Project is currently at a standstill.
Until recently, the City was participating in a two-phase Department of Energy (DOE) grant.
This last year was Phase 1, which involved research, modeling, and system design, among other
items. In September, the City was getting ready to submit that work for Phase 2, a competitive
process for full construction (up to $ 10m) of the Heat Loop Geothermal Heating System.
Our contracted engineer failed to fulfill his legal requirements to conduct business as an engineer
in the state of Alaska, nor did he fulfill the duties of his contract. What the engineer did submit
has known integrity issues. Because of that, the City could not submit the grant application for
Phase 2. Additionally, the DOE is not reimbursing the City for the work that we had paid the
contractor to do up to that point.
The original grant that got this project off of the ground in 2018 was through the Alaska Energy
Authority (AEA). A small portion of the original $725,000 was used for that work. This grant
was recently in "warning" status because there was very little progress being made on the project
until mid 2023, when the DOE Phase 1 grant was awarded. The remainder of these grant funds
were going to be used for the City's required 10% match for the DOE Phase 2, if awarded.
However, the same contracted engineer did some of the work under this grant while not legally
licensed. Because of the situation, both with the engineer and adequate progress not being made,
the AEA has closed this grant.
In the summer of 2024, the Heat Loop Project was "awarded" $500,000 in Congressionally
Designated Spending (CDS) through HUD's Economic Development Initiative — Community
Project Funding Grant. The way this process works is that we aren't given the money upfront but
have to apply for it through the federal grant process. At the end of October, they released the
grant application to access these funds as well as the reporting requirements.
With the integrity issues in some of the engineer's work and the fact that it's not complete, an
engineer/engineering group will need to be hired to review and complete the work. This means
208
reviewing the data and modeling for integrity and making sure the design fits so that economic
viability can be determined. We are not sure of the cost to do this. Given the situation, it's
impossible to know or quantify what needs to be done to review the work, complete the design,
and come out with an economic evaluation.
Until we have thorough economic evaluation with integrity, it doesn't make sense to pursue the
project. There is some general concern from the data that this could be very expensive to operate;
significantly more expensive than the cost currently is. Additionally, the Alaska Energy Authority
also sent the City of Seward a letter in 2020 that communicated these concerns. We don't want
to build a project that is going to overburden the taxpayers and/or ratepayers.
There has been community interest and involvement in this project since it started. One of the
requirements for the DOE grant was to have a Community Committee and so an officially
sanctioned Ad Hoc Committee was formed. There is a desire from some Heat Loop Ad Hoc
Committee members to continue the committee to pursue the project further.
NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratories), a partner in this DOE grant work, is
interested in collaborating in the future on further work. Their work was also funded through a
portion the DOE Phase 1 Grant. We recently inquired if they knew of any engineering firms that
do this kind of work, and they pointed us to one that has successfully completed a number of
geothermal heating projects.
Possible Next Step:
The City applies for the CDS Economic Development Initiative Community Project Grant and
see if we will be allowed to use those funds to pay for contracted engineering services to go
through the data, modeling, and designs and develop an economic evaluation. We would request
an economic evaluation that would include the cost benefit for the project as it currently stands
as well as other scalable adaptations to project that would present other cost / benefit options.
This would give council the information it needs to make a decision on next steps.
I know that this project has been noted at the federal level — with both great interest and some
concern with the situation — so I don't want to make the assumption that the work will
necessarily be approved for funding.

Discuss Historic Preservation Award Nomination Deadlines & Process
City Clerk Kris Peck recalled earlier this year how the nomination deadline of March 31 was
extended and still no nominations were received. He asked if a deadline was necessary or if the
nomination process could be open year-round. Peck noted people were more active in the summer
working on historic preservation projects, and they might be forgotten by the spring of the
following year.
Libbrecht was open to a year-round nomination process.
Mashlan suggested keeping the nominations open year-round, but the award should still be
presented in May.

Hoben Park Updates
Benoit provided an update on the Lee Poleske Memorial Bench and the dying lilacs on the ground.
She recommended buying lilacs and finding an even bigger lilac for the park.
Stacy noted the Commission had a rolling budget that could potentially cover lilac purchases. She
would check with the Finance Department.
Ward noted she had lost lilacs in her personal yard due to improper lawn care. Protective barriers
would be needed for the lilacs. Libbrecht recommended a lilac with fencing and simple signage.
The Commission directed Stacy to look into the budget for Historic Preservation.
Stucco Johnson Homesite Sign
Benoit said the sign was old, out of date and damaged. It was currently on the Commission's list
of signs to replace. The idea would be to redo it in a style similar to the Historic Walking Tour
signs. Benoit had researched additional information along with other interested individuals: Carol
Griswold and Colleen Kelly. Benoit wanted all the signs submitted at the same time and shipped
together at the same time. She hoped they would be ready by May of 2025.
St. Peter's Episcopal Church Discussions
Booklet on Jan Van Empel
Benoit would be working on the cover and editing. Mashlan explained who would cover the cost
for printing.
Benoit said local author Doug Capra was willing to share excerpts from his book The Spaces
Between for the St. Peter's Centennial Celebration in January 2025.
Preservation Proposal Updates
Mashlan provided an update on technical assistance, the rectory, and CAD drawings.
Libbrecht asked for continued updates on this project by way of a recurring agenda item.
