ADJOURNMENT City of Seward, Alaska Council Agenda June 28, 2021 Page 3 City of Seward City Manager's Report June 28, 2021 Mayor Terry and Council Members, It's been a busy two weeks both within the City offices and in the community. I am very happy to see Alaska residents and out of state visitors enjoying Seward. Below is a snapshot of some of the meetings and activities from June 15 to June 21: Lobbyist Briefing Stephen and I received a legislative briefing from our state lobbyist. The legislature continues to work through the budget process. Several Seward projects are contained in the budget bill. Our lobbyist will continue to follow the budget bill and other bills affecting Seward. Governor Dun/eavy and Senator Su//ivan Meeting with Staff Members Jill Schaefer, Kenai Peninsula Office Director for Governor Mike Dunleavy and Elaina Spraker, Kenai Peninsula Regional Director for Senator Dan Sullivan met with Mayor Terry and Harbor Master Norm Regis regarding Port operations and met with myself and Stephen later in the day. We discussed the complexities of our community and the issues affecting Seward including child care, housing and worker shortages. TYC Positions Parks & Recreation Director Tyler Florence, Human Resources Officer Tammy Nickell, Stephen and myself held an initial meeting regarding the TYC positions and the PERS impact. We will hold an additional meeting to further refine job descriptions in the manner prescribed by PERS. The preference appears to be to attempt to modify the job descriptions in a manner that meets PERS requirements and allows the City to avoid any elimination of the positions and incur a significant cost. 2022 Budget Process In 2008, the voters approved moving to a biennial process. The approved Charter language reads: "During or prior to the third week in November of every even year, the city manager shall present to the council a budget proposal for the next two years (an odd and even year) of the city. Such budget proposal shall set forth the city managers recommendations concerning, and an analysis of, the anticipated income and expenditures of the city during the next two years, and shall be presented to the council within 45 days of the end of the "even year" fiscal year." The Charter goes on to state: (c) At a regular meeting held not less than ten days prior to the end of the "even year" fiscal year, the council shall, by resolution, adopt a budget for the following two years and make an appropriation of the money needed therefor. The problem is, we are in the "odd" year. Which means that by Charter, the biennial budget is not presented to you this year. Presenting a biennial budget to you is a Charter violation. I can't speak to what happened or why it is off. However, to fix it, 2022 will be a one-year budget. And as defined in Charter and Code in 2022, we will present a biennial budget that will get us back on track. Union Negotiations Union negotiations were held on June 17 and 18. I expect the contract language to be finalized soon and a resolution to be before the council at a future meeting. Library & Museum Director I am pleased to announce that Bailey Sayler has been selected as the new Library & Museum Director. Ms. Sayler will begin on July 2, 2021. A big thank you to Valarie Kingsland who has passionately served as the Library & Museum Director since 2014. Best wishes Valarie in your next endeavor. As required by the Seward Municipal Code 6.05.010, the following purchase orders between $5,000 and $30,000 have been approved by the City Manager since the last council meeting: Date Department Description Amount 6/04/2021 Electric 15 KV wire $ 26,250.00 6/14/2021 Fire Disposal of AFFF firefighting foam (hazardous materials) $ 6,195.00 6/14/2021 Water Fire hydrants x 3 $ 7,500.00 6/15/2021 Electric Fishbowl - new inventory management software 1 $ 14,262.50 Than k you, City of Seward Department Activity Reports Finance Department Melody Moline • Finance is preparing for next year's budget and information will be ready to go to department heads July 1 as per the Budget Calendar. Department heads will enter their budgets for the upcoming cycle and have them to finance July 23 or earlier. Administration has sent out the budget calendar and will begin meeting with department heads in September. Finance and administration met with the City's audit firm, Altman Rogers, on June 10. No update regarding their request from Altman Rogers to KPMG regarding KPMG performing the single audit for Providence Seward and the City because of the combined amount of over $750,000 in federal funds in 2020. This will delay Altman Rogers' issuing our final audited financial statements as reported earlier. Finance continues to provide additional information as they near the end of their audit of all funds. Finance has ordered additional copies of the Tsunami Safety Tips and Evacuation Map for Seward. Once they arrive, we will get them to the post office for distributing to all mail boxes as well as the delivery route outside of town. • Finance is gathering information regarding the various funding options for the Animal Shelter project and will meet with administration the week of June 21-25 with recommendations for best options.

The $109,000 grant was made through a program of the Alaska Energy Association to install charging stations from the Kenai Peninsula to Fairbanks. The project calls for one fast -charging station and a Level 2 station. The Harbor 360 Hotel had also applied but was not chosen for a grant. The Electric Department will continue to work with Harbor 360 on other potential options. • Seward Solar Installations — The Electric Department continues to work with representatives of the Solarize Seward campaign and their vendor Renewable Energy Systems (Anchorage) on solar panel installations in the area.

We are working on applying for this grant for future community recreational needs both indoors and out. 13 Why is Community Development Important? Community Development is important because it provides the foundation a city builds off of to improve the lives of its citizens. It creates strong, diverse communities that are able to attract and keep talent, start and grow businesses, and overcome issues that arise. Citizens will be happier, healthier, richer, and live longer lives. Businesses will have a larger base of customers who can purchase their products and services, and the city will earn tax income to continue to support important programs and reduce debt. Are you ready to help develop our community?

Chamber of Commerce — City Council Report June 28th, 2020 Board Meeting (Original report submitted June 22nd) After having some discussions, in order to create more clarity, I'm going to be focusing on information has to do with the City Marketing Contract work at the top of the report and will have brief Membership Side information on the bottom. There are some cross over on projects that the membership side and marketing side partner on. (i.e. Visitor Guide, Tradeshows) I am also going to put any information that we are doing directly with the city in this area as well (although that tends to be more of a membership side of things) Marketing Contract Work: City Administration asked us a while back to help collect information on Mobile Vending. We put out a survey and the results are here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/stories/SM-FDZGGCSC/ City Administration has also asked us to collect information on worker shortages and impacts on businesses here for their lobbying efforts. Here are the results thus far: https://www.surveymonkey.com/results/SM- WT6J2V799/ We have been getting feedback on some negative impacts to our community and outlying areas from visitors. We will be putting out a survey in the next month or so gathering information on those impacts and we will use this information for facilitating discussions in the fall. Having conversations with city administration on NCL Funds as it relates to business and community needs. The Visitor Center We were awarded an AIDEA/AEA Charging Station Grant for $109k for the Visitor Center Building. We will have a Fast Charge and Level 2 Charging Station installed by the end of the summer. We are going through more visitor guides here at the Chamber than we ever have in years past from visitors. They have also been more in demand than past years as well from member businesses that like to have copies in their establishments. We have done some rearranging to make it more inviting and easier to navigate our information and rack cards. We are now exhibiting our member photographers and artists work in the visitor center with QR codes on how they can purchase those artists work. As part of a recent grant we have installed monitor that we will be displaying information for visitors. Come check it out if you are in the area! Information needs: We are getting a significant number of people calling and coming in for help finding accommodations, transportation, and open restaurants. Karen has created a daily survey with linked QR code that people can scan after 3 pm to find who has posted accommodation openings. We have also developed a sheet for visitors that help them know what restaurants are open and when as google and websites are not being kept up to date. We are helping a lot of people find the specific transportation they need both to get to Seward and for once they are in Seward.

The best spotsare on private land in the bca: -.arbor, and the roving permit doesn't let you operate on 4th Avenue or in the harbor, which are the only places worth operating out of. Increase the number of locations for mobile vendors. Rut potential locations in better (higher tourist visibility) locations On Fourth avenue in the grassy patch where scheffler creek goes by, on the north end near the walking path Lot in Front of Kenai Fjords Tours Somewhere in the harbor I think the entire uplands parking lot in the harbor should be a food truck area where we can go and enjoy a selection of mobile vendors and create awelcoming experience forvisitors, vendors, and locals! More i-, downtown & harbor areas- more centralky Located There should be a spot where mobile vendor can set up together and create a food pod.

Answered:4 Skipped:9 See above. It's better to just rent space From Tom Tougas in the harbor than to try to make money at any of the spots the City provides. In speaking to other mobile vendors, the only one that was actually able to make it in the spat allotted by the City was Hamajang's late night spot. Every other spot was a bust. Try to keep a focus on local. Its not cast effective for my business to run on a gas powered generator for the day. Nor is it to have to move every night a.so. I understand that what ensures the location is "mobile" but it is a lot more work then necessary.

He was a manager ofthe Alaska Transfer Company, located where the parking lot is now. His wife was associated with Seward's notorious red-light district known as The Line, where the line of cottonwoods now stands.

Woodlawn Cemetery • Salmon Creek Road and Moat Way, 1916 In the early days, people were buried in numerous places around Seward and there was no official cemetery. The city purchased the land for the Woodlawn Cemetery and some of Seward's earliest residents, such, as Mary Lowell, are buried here. A person was paid $30 per body to dig up remains in Seward, transport them and rebury them at Woodlawn. When Salmon Creek changed its course, the water table became too high to continue using the land as a cemetery and it was abandoned around 1926. Many of the remains were relocated to the new Seward Cemeteries if their relatives desired. Seward Cemeteries • Aspen Lane and Coolidge Drive, 1927 OThe city established a cemetery here and deeded land to some local fraternal organizations who had initiated the idea of creating this cemetery. The Jesse Lee Home also used a portion of the cemetery just above the American Legion plot. Many graves were relocated here from Woodlawn Cemetery. Today, this encompasses the City, American Legion, Masons, and Pioneers of Alaska Cemeteries. See the Memorial Garden created by the Seward Rotary Club and the sign about the Jesse Lee section for information. 5cward t1l's to rical WalLing Tour Tire ,jeward Hi5torrc Fre5ervation Commr5510C-1 Tke C it o eward Funded by tineAlasLa 5ta�e �jistoric Preservation Office 34 5e,ward tjis t o rical WalLing Tour Tie Seward Historic rrt5trvation Commission, witk a grant from t ie Ala5La ,state Historic 'reservation Office, worLeJ wits Partners and tie puklic to create a kistorIc ' waLng tour wick 2- 6signs, -f-6 sites, a map and wek page. 35 Now that you are here, you have become Part of our story.

This house was moved from Mile 7 in 1930 and may have been a barn once. Alaska Images from the 191h and early 20tn centuries sometimes show horses moving whole houses to new locations. People frequently moved their entire holm when the grass was greener somewhere else or after a local calasimphe such as afire. Homes were uprooted from the foundalions, loaded onto wooden platforms wllh wheels, and dragged wllh horses to new locations. later, trucks replaced the horses. In Seward• buildings were frequently moved and re -purposed. In 1905 the Coleman House was moved from a block south on the lower end of rouMAvenue. where it had initially peen the Alaska Central Commercial Company. This house was built arolad 1920 in the small homesteading community of Woodrow [located at Mile 7 of" Seward Highwwaiyy and was moved here around $930. Calvin M. Brosnra sold the property to William H. Dryden in 1929. Dryden was a potato farmer at Woodrow, and the house may have once been a harp. Go you think that moving a house that distance vnth horses sounds far- fetched? In 1828, the Malloy House, located just aaoss the straei at 313 Sixth Avenue. was moved from above Second Avenue, and shortly after World War II,. the house at 317 SlAh Averete was mowed from Fort Raymond, along with many Seward homes, Houses have moved around Seward like a game of moveable chairs.

The 420th Coast Artillery Corps, an anti-aircraft unit, was located in this area. These Quonset huts may have housed visiting entertainers for the military including Lauren Bacall. Quonset huts were innovative, lightweight instant buildings first manufactured in 1941. They were popular wish the military because they were easy to transport and CCuld be put together quickly by people without any construdlon knowledge. As such, they wera used extenlslvely by the Military as baoaCkS durtrg VftOd War 11. In 1941. the Army stationed 171 officers and 3,278 enilslad man at Forl Raymond oust outside of town, mainly in tents, Later. Ihese tents were replaced Wth Quonset huts and wooden barracks.

The 420th Coastal Artillery Battalion was an antiaircraft unll charged to protect the area. You can imagine the impact a large army bed on Seward and that all those men needed things to do beyond the time they spent protecting us. The military brought in entemalnrers, such as Ingrid Bergman., wtlo performed at the Dreamland Theater. The two Quonset huts you see here may have housed visiting entertainers. It's rumored that Lauren Sacall may have stayed in or* of these two htW9. About 1944-1W. when Fort Raymond and nearby Fat AfcGdvery were dosed, military buildings were m-purposed for tonnes. offices, storage.

Harding wars the Presidency, and Standard Oil Company of California came to loom! At the time.

Seeing the value of Seward's strategic Wdation for shipping oil. $landard Oil inveSted in the community and built a boiler house, five oil tanks. buildings, and a dock along the existing shoreline and railroad. It brought publiCity, jobs. Cheap fuel, aril financial flexibikty to businesses in Seward. In 1928 Standard Oil bought this property for $200 and built this house for their manager, Willham C. Ervan, who was hired to oversee the Standard Oil operation. Local author John Paulsteiner said, 'Of all the people I know, the Bill EPmn family is the most outslanding family Seward ever had. I had many an opportunity to speak to him whenever he had some longshore work loading and until ding the tankers, He was a goad man to work for and got along with everybody." Standard Oil was a significant advantage for Seward and expanded ils presence in Seward over time. However, in 1g$4 the Good Friday Earthquake destroyed the enfi re Standard Oil facility when It caused the land on which it sat to SuOstde into the ocean. Flooling while on fire, the exploding tanks made it appear as if "Seward was buming." Amazingly, this house survived, becoming beachfront property.

The fulfillment of this CLG Project was subsequently begun in June 2020. The goal was to create a cohesive, historically accurate, attractive, and compelling walking tour with around 25 interpretive signs plus supportive elements such as a web page and walking tour maps. The project was the result of countless hours of preparation by the commission and our partners as well as significant collaboration with Library/Museum Director Valarie Kingsland and administration, including the city Manager. The project was additionally approved by city council who approved not only the project, also the city's 40% share of the project cost. Fortunately, through thousands of volunteer hours, city support, as well as the enthusiasm and generosity of Seward Citizens, we are nearing completion. NOTE: The overall goals of this project and deliverables are available in the original grant application and subsequent grant notification The State Historic Preservation office has indicated they are THRILLED and IMPRESSED with the professional, diligent way we have executed this project, particularly during this pandemic. The grant period ends June 30, with some of the deliverables allowed beyond that time. This public presentation/celebration with City Council satisfies our public involvement component. Original commissioners on this project were Cheryl Seese, Sue Ward, Iris Darling, Wolfgang Kurtz, John French, and Tanguy Libbrecht. Current commissioners include Seese, Ward, Libbrecht as well as the invaluable addition of commissioners Mary Ann Benoit and Jim Pemberton. `NFA In the words of the administration: (we) have created an activity that every resident and visitor in Seward will enjoy for years to come. (our) love of the community and the historical events that shaped it is evident in the passion (we) demonstrate for the service (we) provide. Seward is truly lucky to have such a dedicated commission. I concur and I believe that we are creating an attraction that will serve enhance pride in the people and places of our history for current and future generations, while also providing an attraction for both our in state and out of state visitors. Goals reached and expected outcomes of proiect • 26 signs have been completed for the walking tour and have been shipped. These signs were offered at no cost to the recipients as cost was covered by the CLG Grant, well over a thousand volunteers hours, in kind donations from various local partners and cash donations from generous Seward Citizens have helped to make this happen. • Tremendous partnerships have been strengthened with local historic societies, our library/museum and local businesses and private citizens, including renown historians and curators of our history. We ended up needing rights to over 100 pictures from our partners at SCLA and RBHS, much appreciated and of tremendous value well beyond the in kind we thought we would need for pictures. • A virtual presentation and project overview set to period music has been completed and will be shown at the City Council meeting on June 28. The public is invited, and we will celebrate with cake. This will be publicly noticed, and everyone is welcome. • Project has been documented via our Facebook page and through dozens of meetings, sometimes several a month throughout this project. • Our HP web page will be featuring the newly created walking tour featuring the 26 sign locations plus other walking tour locations of note that total 46 stops. There are QR Codes on the signs that will take visitors to a web page where they can see the video, download a map, and/or see more historical detail and our many partners and donors. • Once signs are in the ground (Likely late July as posts and mounts are shipping by boat July 12 due to shipping delays). Once signs are installed, we will be distributing two sided narrative maps with historical narrative throughout the city to guide visitors (Sharing these with you tonight). These will be made available free of charge to the public. • A thank you sign will recognize our partners, collaborators and donors and will be installed in the library garden. Budtet, report on private fundraising efforts Initial estimated project cost was right around $28,000 and we are close to that target with an estimated cost of $29,190. This may go down depending on shipping costs and or if any remaining supplies can be gotten for less. This could go up if cost of rental equipment or any excess delivery or supply fees are added. We have also received $7,200 in private funding, about $3,000 of in kind and volunteer hours that are exponentially beyond the original 300 hours. Since the value of a volunteer hours is currently close to $28.00/hour, it has been proposed by 108 our sign designer who has many years of experience producing like products for KMTA and others that the overall value of the combined volunteer hours for a project of this scope would be worth well over $100,000. This is in reference to using a paid contractor vs volunteers who have donated at no charge their valuable time, talent, treasure, and professional expertise for the sole benefit of Seward Residents and Historic Preservation. The project is setup as a 40% city share and 60% state share. Due to the large number of Commissioner hours contributed, there is NO COST to the City of Seward or our citizens, save those who chose to donate either in kind or cash. These individuals, organizations and businesses will all receive a receipt and thank you!

Respectfully submitted for consideration: Commissioner Tanguy Libbrecht `[1R Agenda Statement Meeting Date: June 14, 2021 To: City Council From: City Clerk Agenda Item: Ordinance 2021-005 — City Council and Planning & Zoning Commission Compensation BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION: City Council Members spend a considerable amount of their personal time in service to the citizens of Seward. Council Members are required to attend regular meetings, be available and accessible to their constituents, and prepare for meetings and work sessions by performing their own research on their own time. Individuals who seek to serve on city council do so because they wish to contribute to the progress and success of the community. The council member stipend has not changed since 1986. For the last 35 years, individuals have served this community for a small monetary token which in no way can be construed as a reflection of the true value of their time and service. In 1996, an attempt to increase the stipend was approved, but then reconsidered and failed. In addition, the Planning & Zoning Commission members also expend a considerable amount of time and effort to serve the community, and it is not unusual for commissioners to receive a small stipend in consideration of their service. INTENT: Provide adequate and respectable monetary consideration to city council members and planning and zoning commissioners in recognition of their personal time and valued service to the city.

Wilde, Community Development Director Agenda Item: Resolution Of The City Council Of The City Of Seward, Alaska, To Enter Into An Agreement With FLO Analytics For A Total Estimated Cost Of $35,120 plus a 10% contingency To Conduct A GIS Needs Assessment For The City Of Seward, Create A Strategic GIS Plan, And Assist The City With The Implementation Of That Plan BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION: The Community Development Department maintains the Geographic Information System (GIS) for City of Seward. The current GIS system is used by Community Development, Electric, Fire, Harbor, Parks and Recreation, and Public Works. over the last couple years Community Development department has been working with all departments on the uses and needs of GIS. Community Development requested a quote from FLO Analytics and Alaska Map Company to assess the list of existing Geographic Information System (GIS) projects and provide an ongoing reference document that will guide the City toward improved operations, efficiency, and data access through a clear timeline, task list, and structure. During the pandemic community development along with other departments realized the need for our programs to be accessible and up to date. A GIS needs Assessment / Strategic Plan is a critical component not only in establishing the City goals and objectives and the tasks / projects required to achieve those goals, but also in getting buy -in from other departments and organizations. A consistent, up to date GIS provides considerable cost saving opportunities and benefits; such as locating utilities and facilitating emergency repairs. The Community Development Department will use the departmental GIS plans as input to look for opportunities for departments to work together in their database and application development efforts. GIS workflows and data access can save time in the field, as well as reduce data duplication, avoid loss of records, and provide wider access to important information by all departments and citizens. GIS often underpins public self-service tools like identifying local zoning, business requirements or restrictions, which can help reduce the of requests on city staff. FLO and Alaska Map Company will establish data standards and workflows improve data quality and confidence, and reduces the risk of losing institutional knowledge when staff leave or retire. "rN INTENT: The needs assessment and training will help Community Development work with each city department create a city-wide departmental GIS plan which will address such issues as database development and update cycles, hardware and software needs, application development, departmental GIS organization and personnel needs, and GIS project management. Departmental plan will outline the department's GIS priorities. CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST: Yes I No I N/A ..........

This resolution shall take effect immediately upon adoption. isM 411111101101 l 444 �01 W� F LO qq� Analytics 2815 2nd Avenue, Suite 540 1 Seattle, WA 98121 1 1-888-847-0299 1 www.flo-analytics.com April 28, 2021 Project No. PF1948.01.01 Jackie Wilde City of Seward City Hall Building 410 Adams Street Seward, Alaska 99664 Re: City of Seward GIS Needs Assessment/Strategic Plan Dear Ms. Wilde: FLO Analytics (FLO) appreciates the opportunity to submit this proposal to the City of Seward (the City) to assess the list of existing Geographic Information System (GIS) projects and tasks provided and estimate the required budget. The tasks discussed below are based on the previous work done by the Alaska Map Company to identify City GIS requirements. All tasks will be reviewed during the needs assessment and are subject to modification. The GIS Needs Assessment/Strategic Plan is a critical component not only in establishing the City goals objectives and the tasks/projects required to achieve those goals, but also in getting buy -in from other departments and organizations. It will provide an ongoing reference document that will guide the City toward improved operations, efficiency, and data access through a clear timeline, task list, and structure. FLO will be subcontracting Alaska Map Company to provide local knowledge and support that will help keep efficiency high and enable us to provide a local contact in these travel -restricted times. Cost benefits of GIS A consistent, up to date GIS provides considerable cost saving opportunities and benefits. GIS can provide a system of record for a variety of data, and can be linked or combined with other systems to improve data access. It can be configured to support offline access, invaluable in poorly connected areas and emergencies. Digital workflows and data access can save time in the field, as well as reduce data duplication, avoid loss of records and provide wider access to important information. Access to up-to-date data is vital for locating utilities and facilitating emergency repairs, with savings for a single event easily reaching 10's or 100's of thousands of dollars. Maintenance and repair activities can be made more efficient by combining work on co -located utilities, resulting in less road re -opening, saving money on time, materials and lessening disruption to the public. A GIS often underpins public self-service tools like identifying local zoning, business requirements or restrictions, which can help reduce the burden of requests on city staff. Establishing data standards and workflows improved data R:A1`1948.01 City of Seward\Contract\01_2021.04.28 Proposal\F1948.01 City of Seward Pmposal.docx 120 Ms. Wilde April 28, 2021 Page 2 Project No. PF1948.01.01 quality and confidence, and reduces the risk of losing institutional knowledge when staff leave or retire. Overall, improved data access and confidence results in staff utilizing the information more effectively, saving time and money and better serving the people of the city of Seward. SCOPE OF WORK Task 1—GIS Needs Assessment/Strategic Plan This task is the critical first step in improving the system, and involves conducting an in-depth needs assessment to identify how the City can best use its GIS investment to support its overall goals and mission and establish the best use of GIS resources going forward. The needs assessment consists of evaluating key components such as software, hardware, and network environments, and identifying GIS personnel and current or potential users of GIS tools or data. Existing GIS and GIS-associated data, data storage, and access will be reviewed, including externally managed data that may be important to the organization. The current list of GIS projects provided by the City will be reviewed and updated as required. We start with a kickoff meeting to establish contacts and review and confirm the overall goals and objectives. Evaluations will involve interviews with key staff and all departmental representatives, IT contractors, and consultants of Kenai Peninsula Borough GIS staff as identified in the kickoff meeting. The interviews are used to identify data quality perceptions, current and desired use of data, and other important components that the GIS will be required to deliver. Topics covered may include goals and expectations, personnel resources and responsibilities, use of software, data requirements, constraints, day-to-day workflows, and desired outcomes. GIS and departmental goals will be evaluated against organizational goals to ensure that these are in alignment. If possible, FLO staff will attend one day of on -site interviews, but interviews may be conducted via videoconferencing or telephone as circumstances require. Interview follow-up may be via phone or email. System evaluations and staff interviews will focus on: • Understanding the City's general goals and objectives (both short- and long-term) • Evaluating personnel resources and responsibilities • Evaluating the use of relevant software technologies (e.g., ArcGIS) • Identifying relevant spatial data repositories, including datasets currently managed by the City (e.g., physical assets and associated attributes), as well as supporting datasets necessary to fulfill the functional requirements • Evaluating and documenting data schemas and data capture requirements • Identifying data synchronization requirements and available options R:A1`1948.01 City of Seward\Contract\01_2021.04.28 Proposal\F1948.01 City of Seward Pmposal.docx 121 Ms. Wilde Project No. PF1948.01.01 April 28, 2021 Page 3 • Evaluating the City's imagery needs and options • Evaluating hardware, server, and network resources, including mobile devices • Identifying departmental GIS goals and requirements within the framework of the City's goals and mission • Identifying and evaluating institutionalized procedures and methods for creating, maintaining, and interacting with key data repositories and technologies Additionally, FLO will focus on evaluating how the above interrelate to work toward: • Systems interoperability • Improved workflow automation • Mobile data access and collection We understand that the City currently has much of its data in the Esri Local Government Information Model (LGIM), which is an excellent starting point for data standardization. The needs assessment will include schema evaluation and identification of datasets (e.g., Seward Electric) that should be aligned with the LGIM structure. A key element will be maintaining compatibility with external systems and tools such as ArcGIS Online or asset management and meter -reading tools. Data capture has already been identified as a need at the City. The most appropriate data capture approach and procedures, along with the City's data accuracy needs, will be documented. The findings and recommendations will be compiled into a GIS Needs Assessment/Strategic Plan memo -style document that highlights the City's overarching goals, summarizes existing capacity, and details any components required to address identified gaps or improve processes and efficiency. The report will describe both citywide and department projects and tasks as applicable, with high-level project descriptions, purpose, estimated level of effort or cost, and a summary of technical recommendations as appropriate. The report will be supplied as a draft for City staff's review and comment. It is intended as a terse, focused document heavy on actionable, prioritized tasks with at least a general level of associated effort to assist in budgeting. A suggested timeline will be developed, taking into account the City's budget, requirements, and deadlines and will establish the goals of the city and GIS for the next 3-5 years. Assumptions: • City and consultant staff (as required) will be available for interview.

Task 2—Term GIS Support This task involves providing on -call and term GIS support to the City, as determined by the City in conjunction with the findings of the GIS Needs Assessment. This may include projects such as: • As -built data updates • Data synchronization • Municipal Lands data updates • Parcel Accuracy improvements • Address management • ArcGIS Online management • Cemetery data • Training • Miscellaneous cartography products All requested GIS support will be scoped as required prior to starting work. Assumptions: • The city will designate a point of contact or contacts for GIS support requests. • Support staff can access City GIS data, network, and online environments as required, including remotely. Deliverables: • As defined in the GIS Needs Assessment and/or requested by city staff and scoped as appropriate.

BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION: The City of Seward Electric Department is responsible for clearing and maintaining approximately 32 miles of high voltage transmission right of way. While most of this right of way is in satisfactory condition, there remains a 2.5-mile section between MP 20 and MP 22.5 of the Seward Highway where the tree and vegetation growth are extensive, and heavy clearing is required. As it exists today, this section creates significant system reliability issues, as experienced in the November 2020 ice storms. They also present significant public safety concerns, particularly the risk of starting a forest fire. Many of the trees in and adjacent to the right of way already brush into the lines during windy conditions. We are fortunate that a forest fire did not occur in 2019 when weather conditions for the region were extremely dry and forest fires were prevalent across the state We intend to use a contractor over the next 16 months beginning in July 2021 to clear this section of the transmission right-of-way and other, smaller sections --including "problem" trees just outside of the right of way. Once completed, ongoing right-of-way maintenance will be much less costly. AK Tree Service, LLC was selected through an RFP process that evaluated each bidder on price, experience, quality of work, qualifications, references, and additional right-of-way maintenance services. INTENT: To improve service reliability and public safety by authorizing the city manager to enter into a contract with AK Tree Service, LLC for right-of-way clearing services along assigned sections of transmission line corridors.

In many communities, jobs and services have been cut in order to survive. As a result, the federal government included a State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund within the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.These funds are intended to support response efforts to continue to decrease the spread of the virus, replace lost public sector revenue to strengthen support for vital public services and help retain jobs, support immediate economic stabilization for households and businesses, and address systemic public health and economic challenges that the pandemic has created. To date, the City has distributed over $5 million in COVD-19 relief funds to businesses, non- profits, and residents of Seward. The City saw a loss of over $1.6 million in sales tax revenue alone in 2020 due to the virus. With the uncertainty of how the economy will bounce back and for the sake of jobs and services within the community, administration recommends accepting the federal funds as a replacement of lost revenue within the General Fund. Grant funds are based on the population of the community as a percentage of the total allocation. The exact amount awarded to Seward has not yet been determined, but is estimated to be between $504,263 and $606,148.

BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION: Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, cruise ship travel was halted in 2020 and is not likely to return to normal levels until 2022. This lack of tourism has had a dramatic negative impact on Seward businesses and the entire community. Norwegian Cruise Lines has responded by giving six Alaska communities funds ranging from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 to assist in economic recovery. The intent is for local leaders to determine how this gift can best be put to use in aiding the unique needs of each community. Of the six communities that are being given these funds, Seward is the only location outside of Southeast Alaska. During the work session on June 71h, City Council determined that the best use of these funds was to provide funds to the Seward Prevention Coalition to purchase or lease a building for use as a child care facility and for expanding city utilities. INTENT: Accept the gift of $1,000,000 from Norwegian Cruise Lines and appropriate funds for the express purpose of community -based child care and expansion of city utilities.

Unless otherwise noted, the following Citizen Comments were submitted in advance and read intothe record by the City Clerk: Marie Gage thought it was very important to have specific behavior health treatment definitions and zoning included in the Planning & Zoning Commission's priorities. She did not want to have drug and substance abuse clinics allowed in all neighborhoods under the guise of being convalescent homes. Carol Griswold stated that the definitions and zoning requirements for behavioral health treatment facilities were missing from Title 15 and the Land Uses Allowed Table. She urged council to specifically direct the Planning & Zoning Commission to add behavioral health treatment definitions, land uses, and zoning as a goal on their priorities list. `W, City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page Christiana Smith and Frances Azzad-Smith said last summer the Seward Prevention Coalition hung a colorful COVID-conscious banner in two locations around town. The SCHC received a Chamber of Commerce award for their efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic. Smith reminded everyone to Play Hard, Stay Safe. New banners had replaced last year's banners with the new slogan; they asked for support and feedback from the city to continue their efforts. Brandy Arthur lived in Lowell Point since 2019; she had been informed about the sewage lagoon when she purchased her home. For the last two months, she and her husband could not enjoy their outdoor environment at their home or have their windows open. Although it is better now than it was, she's not sure what the long-term plan was. In her opinion, there were visitors at Lowell Point that vowed not to return; those visitors considered Seward the same as Lowell Point. She requested the city conduct a feasibility study as soon as possible. Tara Reimer spoke on behalf of the Alaska SeaLife Center (ASLC). She recalled one year ago when she presented to council what the summer would be like for the ASLC; at the time, she requested $500,000 from the city, contingent on the ASLC raising the remaining funds. For that, she thanked the city. She appreciated that the city stepped up to provide that promise of funding because it inspired others to donate funds, and ultimately the ASLC exceeded their fundraising goal. Lynda Paquette was pleased to see Ordinance 2021-005 on the agenda tonight. Regarding the forensic audit resolution, she hoped that the audit would put the issues to bed. Regarding the Lowell Point Sewage Lagoon, she recalled speaking to council in 2013 about the conditions; during the summer of 2014, people on Nash Road and Fox Island could smell the lagoon. Last summer she asked administration to take action while the tourist numbers were low; nothing happened. Now the city was inundated with tourists. Kelly Ann Cavaretta asked council to perform a feasibility study on the city's wastewater system. She knew the community was continuing to grow and she hoped that people were looking forward to the future. Matt Cope thanked Public Works Director Doug Schoessler for spending time at Lowell Point during the sewage lagoon concerns recently. The problem could not be ignored and had to be addressed. He wanted finite answers, a feasibility study, and solutions brought forward. It was difficult for anyone to differentiate between Lowell Point and Seward; it was affecting a lot of people and businesses. Mica Van Buskirk was president of Lowell Point Community Council; they had met last night for their annual meeting. She thanked Schoessler for attending the meeting and answering questions. Although the situation was currently improving, the sewage lagoon really needed attention. She wished the situation didn't become critical before it was addressed. Businesses in Lowell Point were receiving horrible reviews; some tourists left before their stay was over. On another note, she asked council to please consider building a covered community recreational center. 153 City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page Lisa Paesani had lived in Lowell Point since 2012. She was most concerned about what would be done about the sewage lagoon going forward, and believed a feasibility study was the best avenue to take. Suzi Towsley announced that the Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault (DVSA) program would transition from SeaView to Seward Prevention Coalition starting July 1, 2021. The crisis line would remain (907) 362-1843. Towsley supported HYPER and their efforts to open a daycare center. It was difficult for families when they did not have reliable childcare. Regarding the city's forensic audit, she fully supported having the audit; she believed it would go towards healing the community. Clerk's Note: The new DVSA office will remain in the SeaView Plaza, and will be co -located with the new Seward Prevention Coalition office.

City Manager Janette Bower reported the following purchase orders between $5,000 and $30,000 had been approved by the City Manager since the last council meeting: $7,200 for ITRON 12S meters for Electric; $15,548 for 2 inch and 4 inch steel conduit for Electric; $15,182 for wire for Electric; $7,410 for an 84 inch angle broom for the Harbor; $29,300 for in -car tablets and installation equipment for Police; $5,844 for six chairs for Police; $14,850 for road crack sealant for Public Works; and, $13,725 for SRB MAX 12 week treatment for the Lowell Point Sewage Lagoon for Public Works. Regarding the Lowell Point Sewage Lagoon, Bower had spoken with an engineer from R&M Consultants today who informed her that they would be sending an engineer to visit the lagoon sometime in the next couple of weeks. In response to Casagranda, Police Chief Alan Nickell said regular office chairs had to be replaced every year or two. The chair purchase conducted recently were for chairs being used 24x7 with weight capacities of up to 500 pounds. When officers sat in chairs with their gear on, it was damaging to the chairs. The chairs purchased came with a ten year warranty. He was confident that the chairs would last for many years to come. Nickell was aware of the expense, but thought it was worth it in the long run. Community Development Director Jackie Wilde wished to provide an update on the Jesse Lee Home Memorial Park and the status of the project. There would be a change order coming to council in the amount of $186,954.68 as a result of the stop work order against the city by the Friends of the Jesse Lee Home: change order number two was for $196,280.20 to remediate discharge from a boiler that was unknown to have been leaking, and there were some trees on the property that had been planted after the facility was constructed which were directly adjacent to the basement concrete walls; removing the concrete would destabilize the trees and create a hazard, so the trees need to be removed. Wilde provided an update on the park plans. There were come cement column markers on the property that would be kept and cleaned up. There would be a parking lot accessed off Benson that `&�7 City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page would have toilet facilities. The Seward Community Garden group had requested to lease an area for a community garden, which would include a 72-foot greenhouse. There would be two signs for the park which would partially incorporate pieces of the original foundation. Working with the Historic Preservation Commission, Wilde would be using an original arched window to create a walking path feature. Benches would be scattered around the park and would be created with pieces of the boiler. In one corner of the park, there would be a dog park with a small segregated area specifically for small dogs; the dog park may incorporate agility equipment. A playground would be situated nearest to the parking lot area. Terry wondered what the status of the grant was. Wilde said all grant funds would be expended by June 30, 2021, and all the change orders would be paid for out of the grant monies. Casagranda asked if council was being asked to make a decision about the park tonight. Wilde said the grant required that a memorial be installed; city code required a memorial to be zoned in a park, which council had previously approved. Wilde wished to incorporate components of the Jesse Lee Home to the park's features. In response to Casagranda, Wilde said the grant would include signs, benches, and the change orders. Casagranda wanted to be cautious about trying to fit too many things in this space. Wilde said each component proposed, from the greenhouse to the dog park to the playground, was temporary and could be removed at any point or changed out to something different. The only thing that would be permanent would be the parking lot and park signs. The actual developable area of the park's footprint was smaller than it appeared because there were electric transmission and overhead main lines that required an easement. In response to DeMoss, Wilde said the grant money would not cover the dog park or the playground. Casagranda wondered where the designs for the park came from; in response, Wilde said the community survey that was conducted drove the ideas for what to include. City Attorney Report. Brooks Chandler reported that May had been a fairly busy month, due to the two appeal hearings for the Board of Adjustments. There had also been an employee grievance issue, and he had conducted research in preparation of the forensic audit Request for Proposals. Chandler would be in Seward again later this week to participate in the union negotiations. Other Reports and Announcements 2021 Mount Marathon Race report by MMR Director Matias Saari.

Presentations City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page Happy Youth Programs & Educational Resources (HYPER) presentation #2 by Casie Warner and Christiana Smith PUBLIC HEARINGS Resolutions Requiring Public Hearing Resolution 2021-064, Amending Electric Rates And Charges And Developing A New Industrial Rate Based On A "Cost Of Service" Allocation, As Recommended In The Rate Study Conducted By The Financial Engineering Company. Motion (Baclaan/McClure) Approve Resolution 2021-064 Electric Utility Director Rob Montgomery recalled the electric rate study began at the end of 2020, and the recommendation from the study was to transition to a cost of service allocation. The city's three largest electric users would be moved into their own class as an industrial rate, which would result in a decrease in their rate charges. And finally, the recommendation was for the Alaska SeaLife Center moving to paying a full Cost of Power Adjustment (COPA), as all customers were required to do. Montgomery said if Seward's electric was a regulated company, no special contracts would be authorized because it would throw all other contracts out of balance. Undoubtedly, the Alaska SeaLife Center was an important partner for the community. Out of respect for the ASLC, Montgomery was proposing to transition the ASLC to full COPA over the course of several years to allow them to adjust incrementally. Notice ofthe public hearing beingposted and published as required by law was noted and thepublic hearing was opened. Lynda Paquette had been a member of the citizen committee to review the electric rate study results. She commended Montgomery for his work on performing this study, and for developing a reasonable and effective plan to move forward. Tara Reimer spoke on behalf of the Alaska SeaLife Center. The ASLC rates would increase significantly. The reason why the city was in this situation was because the industrial rate had been eliminated in 2013 and the ASLC was put on a special contract. In 2015, council decided the ASLC should move to a ten-year plan to migrate to paying the full rate. She didn't object to tonight's resolution, but she didn't support it either. She appreciated Montgomery's professionalism and effort to work on a compromise. Reimer wished to ensure that council was voting on the correct version of this resolution. No one else appeared and the public hearing was closed. Montgomery appreciated Reimer and the ASLC team's professionalism and diligence for drafting a solution. He supported the requested amendments that Reimer provided. In response to iNA City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page Casagranda, Montgomery said he would be cutting $75,000 out of the Electric Department's projected revenue budget in order to soften the transition for the ASLC. Motion to Amend (Terry/McClure) Motion to Amend Passed Main Motion Passed UNFINISHED BUSINESS — None NEW BUSINESS Ordinances for Introduction Amend Resolution 2021-064 by adopting the "final and clean version of the tariff" which was provided as a laydown and including the amendments as provided by Reimer as a laydown at the meeting. Unanimous Unanimous Ordinance 2021-005, Amending Seward City Code 2.10.100 — Compensation Of Councilmembers To Adjust Monthly Stipend Amounts To Reflect The 50th Percentile For Compensation In The Kenai Peninsula Borough, And Enacting Seward City Code Section 2.30.230 To Establish A Stipend For Planning & Zoning Commissioners. Motion (Baclaan/Seese) Introduce Ordinance 2021-005 City Clerk Brenda Ballou explained that she had worked with Harbormaster Norm Regis when he was in acting city manager status, along with Assistant City Manager Stephen Sowell last winter to research the history of council stipends and conduct a survey across the borough for comparables. Council stipends had not changed since 1986. Ballou added that Council Member DeMoss, who was council's liaison to the Planning & Zoning Commission, had expressed interest in creating a small stipend for those commissioners. Terry was not in favor of increasing council's stipend, nor was she in favor of establishing a stipend for the Planning & Zoning Commission. Terry thought serving on council was a volunteer opportunity, and the stipend should be kept as small as possible. She would vote against this ordinance. McClure absolutely agreed with Terry; she considered being on council or P&Z an act of community service. McClure said she donated her stipends to various non -profits in Seward, and if the stipends were increased, she would continue to donate them. She would vote against this ordinance. Baclaan fully supported this ordinance. He understood that serving was voluntary, and even at the current stipend amount, the time he gave was voluntary. Baclaan said that were it not for the 158 City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page stipend, he might not be able to afford to serve because of the effect it had on his work schedule. He thought having diversity on council was an important thing to have, though; if people wished to serve, but could not afford to do so, council would not fairly represent all citizens of the community, only those who could afford it. Baclaan said being on council was not his only interest; he also served voluntarily in other areas of the community on his own time. He envisioned having people of all income levels being able to serve on council, but many would only be able to do that if council ensured inclusion for those interested in serving. He had been personally affected by serving on council, and had incurred many non -monetary pressures. He admired McClure's ability to donate her stipend to the community, and thought if the stipends increased, the community would be better off for it. He would vote to support this ordinance. Osenga would support this ordinance, given the time that has passed since the stipends had been considered. DeMoss absolutely agreed with Baclaan's statements. Seese favored this ordinance, and thought being involved with council was a considerable demand on her schedule; she, too, volunteered for many other activities in the community. Casagranda recalled a time in her life just ten years ago when she would not have been able to serve on council without a $200 stipend. She was in a different place now, but she sympathized with Baclaan's concerns; she didn't want to have council filled with only people who could afford it, and wanted to enable people of varying backgrounds to serve. Casagranda wanted to have this ordinance introduced and have the opportunity to hear from the public and have further discussion. McClure said hearing from her colleagues had convinced her to change her mind and explore further discussion, so she would support introducing this ordinance. Terry asked administration if council members were required to take the money, because there could be tax ramifications. She volunteered for a lot of different things, and being on council was the only thing she was paid for. She served because she believed it was her civic duty, and no amount of money could replace the time she spent away from her family. She wanted all people to be able to serve, but she also didn't want the stipends to increase to the point where it was considered a job; she thought people should serve because they felt compelled to serve. Motion Passed Resolutions Unanimous All resolutions were approved on the consent agenda. Other New Business Items Non -objection to the liquor license renewal for Yukon Bar #1245 — Beverage Dispensary. Vice Mayor Baclaan declared a potential conflict of interest because he worked at the Yukon Bar one day a week. Mayor Terry declared that no conflict existed. There was no objection from council. 159 City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page Council recessed at 9:00 p.m. Council resumed at 9:10 p.m. Motion (Terry/McClure) Non -objection to the liquor license renewal for Yukon Bar #1245 — Beverage Dispensary.

Unanimous Letter from City of Obihiro Mayor Norihisa Yonezawa cancelling the 2021 In -Person Student Exchange Program City Clerk's memo verifying timely receipt of City Manager's Financial Disclosure Statement Overview of 2021 City Representatives, Council Liaisons & Committees CITIZEN COMMENTS Carol Griswold wanted council to continue allowing the public to provide their comments to the city clerk in writing to be read aloud, or delivered via telephone by citizens, during meetings. She thought it would be prudent to continue these accommodations because COVID was still out there. Suzi Towsley hoped the city would accommodate remote attendance for a while. She thought that working-class people should have every opportunity to serve on council, and encouraged council to pass the ordinance. Towsley commented on how much healthier and professional tonight's meeting felt. Christiana Smith appreciated being able to attend the council meetings in person. She would not be able to attend the June 28, 2021 council meeting, but thought that 40 years was long enough to 111-1H City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page address the council stipend. She thought the rates proposed were very reasonable and conscientious. She wanted for anyone who wished to serve to have the means to do so. Tara Reimer supported increasing council stipends; she thought it made sense to allow citizens from every standard of life to serve. She enjoyed being back in council chambers in person and without a mask. She hoped that YouTube would be kept in place forever, and thought allowing a hybrid of comments being submitted in writing to continue. As a quick update on the ASLC, Reimer said they were seeing a large boost in tourism, and it was wonderful to see so many visitors. There were some challenges with staffing across the board. She appreciated the work that council and staff performed. She really appreciated the positive vibe with this current city staff. COUNCIL AND ADMINISTRATION COMMENTS & RESPONSE TO CITIZEN COMMENTS Bower said there was an internal, in-house audit being conducted on all utility accounts; it would take approximately four months to complete. She appreciated that council wanted to provide her with a fresh slate. Casagranda hoped everyone would be patient, considerate, and kind to the businesses that were trying to keep their doors open with limited staffing available. She wondered if a letter to US Senator Lisa Murkowski would help. The abundance of tourists was a blessing, but it came with challenges for managing businesses. DeMoss announced there would be an all -ages open mic at Temple Studios every Sunday. She congratulated Seward Wilderness Collective on their first farmers market last Saturday. She reiterated the sentiments to be kind and considerate. She said happy Pride month. Osenga said congratulations and happy retirement to Jan Melvin. He congratulated Lydia Jacoby on her Olympic trials. Seese congratulated Jan Melvin on her retirement, and wished her well. She hoped the childcare endeavor would be successful. She thanked Wilde for the presentation tonight. She thanked the citizens for speaking tonight and said the farmer market was great. McClure congratulated Jan Melvin on her retirement, and said Lydia Jacoby did well today. There would be a solstice cemetery walk on June 21, 2021 at 10:30 p.m. at the Masonic cemetery. Baclaan said happy Pride month. Seward Pride Alliance was holding a virtual Alphabet Soup event on Thursday; everyone was invited to attend and ask questions. The Pride celebration in Seward would be July 30 through August 1, 2021. He encouraged citizens to reach out to council members and give their feedback on the stipend consideration. He appreciated administration being so responsive and working productively with council. Terry thought the city should start talking with federal lobbyists now to make sure the J-1 Visa students would be coming next year. She was pleased that a feasibility study was being `ld City of Seward, Alaska City Council Meeting Minutes June 14, 2021 Volume 41, Page developed for the Lowell Point Sewage Lagoon. For Mount Marathon Race information go to www.mountinarathon.com. Terry said the city would continue using YouTube for meetings, and anyone could send comments via email to the city clerk for distribution to council. Terry would be out of state June 22 through July 6, 2021. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 9:34 p.m. Brenda J.

Seward City Council Jessica Stallard, Deputy City Clerk c 'at�"Asr�a Plans for the 2021 Obihiro-Seward VIRTUAL Student Exchange Program Since 1968, Seward has had a sister -city relationship with Obihiro, Japan. Seward and Obihiro have exchanged students each year since 1973. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the student exchange program was cancelled for the year 2020. The in -person student exchange program was also cancelled for 2021, but Seward and Obihiro have decided to conduct a virtual student exchange program in its place. Three Seward High School students were accepted into the student exchange program for 2020: Rowan Bean, Wren Dougherty, and Kylie Mullaly. We have offered them the opportunity to participate in the virtual student exchange program since the in -person student exchange program was cancelled. Unfortunately, due to other commitments, Wren Dougherty had to withdraw from the 2021 student exchange program. Rowan Bean and Kylie Mullaly will be participating in the student exchange activities that Seward students usually share with students from Obihiro. We will be creating a video of their experiences to send over to Obihiro. We have also discussed possibly videoing their families cooking some family favorite recipes that are specific to Alaska and sending a book of recipes to Obihiro, as well. Obihiro will also be creating a video to send to our students. Our goal for completing the video to send to Japan is the end of July, 2021. Our I.T. department has agreed to help edit the video, and Rowan is very excited about helping with this project since film and video editing is what she is going to school for. PAIN June 7,h , 2021 RECEIVED Honorable Mayor Christy Terry City of Seward JUN 2 2 2021 PO Box 167 410 Adams Street Seward, AK 99664 Dear Mayor Terry, OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK Obihiro's short spring has come to an end and the days have been getting warmer and warmer, welcoming the summer season. I hope that the citizens of Seward are healthy and in high spirits. As this year's Mount Marathon Race is quickly approaching, I am sending you the trophies and plaques for 111, 2°d, and V place for each race category. This year marks the 93rd anniversary of this historic race. I would like to express my profound respect for the participants as well as the staff working towards implementing COVID-19 countermeasures and ensuring a successful event. It is extremely unfortunate that we had to cancel the high school student exchange program due to C0VID-19 concerns. However, the iron bonds between our cities is unwavering. I look forward to the day when our citizens can one again travel freely and visit each other once again. I hope for this year's Mount Marathon Race participants to be in good health and to make wonderful memories. May our friendship continue to grow and last for years to come.
