Utility Department: The finance department and the Carmen Jackson team continue to work on utility billing issues and resolving old problems identified through internal audits of the City as well as developing billing manuals and user guides to assist with the outsourcing process. This includes a collection program to work on collecting old outstanding balances which has resulted in the first distribution from the collection agency. Util-Assist has concluded their onsite visit and the transition process is ongoing. The City and Util-Assist are meeting at least weekly to check on the status and keep the outsourcing process moving smoothly. The finance department is assisting with information and analysis of the ongoing water/sewer rate study as well as the electric rate study that has just gotten underway. Annual Audit: The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR)for the December 31, 2021 audit was awarded the GFOA Certificate of Achievement for financial reporting. This is the highest level or recognition in governmental accounting for recognizing complete and transparent financial reporting. This is the first time the City has received this award in several years. The 2022 fiscal year audit fieldwork with the auditors from Altman, Rogers & Co., has concluded and the final piece of information from Providence has been provided to the auditors. The City expects a draft of the report soon and will review and complete the process as quickly as possible with the goal of receiving the GFOA Certicate of Achievement again for the December 31, 2022 ACFR.

Only a couple of sections of the fiscal manual remain to be updated. Carmen Jackson Update: The Carmen Jackson team continues to work closely with the finance department to assist with the Util-Assist transition as well as directly assisting with the billing process until the outsourcing is complete. Additionally CJCPA continues to provide ongoing accounting services on a daily basis and continues to assist with high level finance department operations.

Central Treasury Report: The attached Central Treasury Report provides the unrestricted cash available by fund as of May 31, 2023. These amounts fluctuate on a daily basis and are reconciled every month. The amounts reports on the agenda statement items for the council represent the available fund balance/net assets for the impacted funds. This is a longer term perspective that takes into account the assets and liabilities of the fund, which results in different numbers than the Central Treasury Report. Any funds with negative cash on the Central Treasury Report are either waiting for funding for expenses already paid or are in the process of being closed out, negative cash for a fund does not represent a problem with operations. 10 e GOVERNMENT FINANCE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 6/13/2023 For more information contact: Michele Mark Levine,Director/TSC Phone: (312) 977-9700 Fax: (312) 977-4806 Email: mlevine0agfoa.org (Chicago, Illinois)—Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) has awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to City of Seward for its annual comprehensive financial report for the fiscal year ended December 31,2021.

Sturgeon Electric was able to complete the initial phase of the work (pole installation, wire installation and pulling) which required Nash Road customers to be served from two large rented generators. Customers were served from the generators for a little more than two weeks before being returned to normal power generation the evening of Thursday, June 15. Sturgeon will continue its work on Nash Road with the installation of lower voltage distribution wire and equipment. Sturgeon will also begin preliminary work to upgrade the last half mile of transmission line feeding into the Fort Raymond Substation from 69kV to 115kV. Also, in mid- to late-July, substation contractor Electric Power Constructors will begin working on the refurbishment/rebuild of the Fort Raymond Substation. Infrastructure Overtime — Total overtime hours for the 4-man line crew and 2 plant operators for the infrastructure project (WO#4236) from June 4 through June 17 was 338 hours. Line crew members also worked an additional 4 hours on other activities. 2023 Rate Study — Rates consultant Mike Hubbard of The Financial Engineering Company was in town for 3.5 days the week of June 12. Several meetings were held with department personnel to review anticipated expenses over the next three years and meetings were also held with members of the Finance Department to gather financial related information. The study is expected to run through August with a presentation to City Council in September. The rate increase will go into effect in the October-November timeframe. • Customer Job Orders — The Electric Department continues to take in new job orders. Between June 2 and June 16, the department completed two jobs with another five underway and eight in the queue ready for the crew. Another five job orders have been applied for but cannot get underway until customers complete work on their side of the meter. Crews also completed 27 locates. Billing Assistance — The Electric Department continues to assist the billing department by completing June meter reading and helping resolve customer complaints related to billing. • Other Work - assisting Utility Billing with meter reads, meter testing, and over/under billing issues. Also, crews completed 49 locates completed in the month of May. 16 Community Development Department Jason Bickling ➢ Chugachmiut has broken ground on their facility. We are still working through some property development pieces (utilities, access, etc.) as they finalize the engineering and designs. ➢ From our last P&Z Work session, we are working Cemetery Master Plan Revisions (last updated in 1997). For this first round we are bringing the code and regulations up to a modern standard and will be creating consistency for both City and privately owned cemeteries. The Cemetery Master Plan is part of the overall Comprehensive Plan. ➢ We are continuing to work on the 2023 edits and revisions for the Municipal Lands Inventory and Use Plan. ➢ The Columbaria Installation process has begun in the City and American Legion Cemeteries. They are currently working on the groundwork and pouring pads to hold them. They weight over 3 tons. After the pads are ready, we will be moving into the installation process with the contractor. ➢ P&Z will be bringing a resolution before council to form an Ad hoc Committee to review Conditional Use Permits (CUPs) ➢ We are continuing to work through the compliance process with the attorney on the illegal STR that we filed suit with. I believe that we are getting close to resolution with compliance and fines/fees. ➢ Ongoing work on the Public Works Building Project - both new site development and the development of the current site for residential housing after it is moved. ➢ We are still (patiently) waiting for the ADEC decision on the Jesse Lee Home Property review. I will let Council know immediately when we hear back from them on whether more mitigation will need to be done. ➢ Our long-term Temp is continuing to work on scanning and archiving for the Com Dev, Fire, Public Works, and Electric Departments. ➢ We are continuing with our normal business of processing of records requests, short term rental permits, replats, rezones, CUPs, and consulting regularly with 17 community members that have questions about the development and use of their land and helping with applications.

We have been notified by the State DOT that they will only do minimal painting of center lines this year because of the 0-8 Project being done. -Sweeping has begun and will continue. -Street crews will continue to grade gravel roads and patch potholes throughout the spring. -Many alleys are crowded up and being overused from the sides. The alleys are only 20 feet wide and the power poles take up 2-3 feet of that. We need your help to move all encroachments back across your property lines to allow us to do maintenance work to get the alleys in better condition for everyone. Thanks for helping us make the alley access smoother! ➢ City Shop -Regular and preventative maintenance work continues and spring cleaning through the facilities outside and in has started. -The online Public Surplus sale is complete and all listed surplus vehicles sold.

This work has started and expected to be complete soon. Testing profiles are being logged for all measurements. We plan to finish the full recommended data collection in June 2023. • During the same effort, from at least four separate locations in each lagoon aeration zone (front and back zones of both basins), collect composite samples of BOD, TSS, carbonaceous BOD (CBOD), soluble carbonaceous BOD (SCBOD), ammonia, total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), alkalinity, nitrites nitrates This work has started and expected to be complete soon. Testing profiles are being logged for all measurements. We plan to finish the full recommended data collection in June 2023. • -The City was successful through Senator Murkowski and others in recently getting approved for $2,000,000 of funding for sludge removal on the City's sewer lagoons. This project is tentatively scheduled for 2025 depending on sludge buildup in the lagoons. There is also a 20% match on those funds that will have to be paid. • -We are currently working on other grant or loan funding to replace the liner at that same time. The liner replacement will also require the use of a helicopter to lift out the 40 biodomes and reinstall them on the new liner. • -This will also be the time to make any upgrades to the air systems and blower components since all "in-lagoon" systems will have to be removed to install a new liner. Because the lagoon will have to be drained (one side at a time). We can capitalize on construction costs and efforts by installing new system upgrades at the same time. • The new DEC permits also added a disinfection requirement to be completed in the next 5 years. • -We are working on the funding and coordination of the many components and the planning efforts in the next few years will help make a successful project. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ -A repeating reminder to all residents not to flush wipes, feminine products, etc. down the toilet. Also, never put grease down the drain. Sewer clogs due to these items cost the sewer utility thousands of$$ each year to fix the problems that could have been easily prevented. These losses of capital are to be reflected in monthly sewer service rates.

Background and justification: Steven C. Leirer has submitted an application to rezone the southwest portion of proposed Tract 5A in the Dairy Hill Subdivision Addition No. 1 from Single-Family Residential to Resource Management. The initiation for a land use amendment to rezone this portion of Tract 5A is by the petition of the majority of the property owners in the area to be amended meets the criteria, as required by Seward City code 15.01.035(b)(1). The majority of Tract 5A is already zoned Resource Management and has been zoned Resource Management since 1992. The southwest corner zoned Single-family Residential is a remnant of the R1 zoning district created in 1962 for Lots 1-18, Block 1, Bayview Addition, on the west side of Tract 5A when First Avenue was mapped to go from the south of town through to the north of the Lagoon. These parcels were dissolved and combined with a portion of U.S. Survey 241 to create Tract 5, Dairy Hill Subdivision. At the time that Tract 5, Dairy Hill Subdivision was created, the split zoning created by combining various parcels of land should have been addressed but was not. Since Mr. Leirer has been approved to further subdivide Tract 5, he is hoping to correct the split zoning remaining in the proposed Tract 5A at this time. The portion of land being requested for a rezone is contiguous with the proposed zoning district, which meets the requirements in Seward City code 15.01.035(b)(3). On May 9, 2023, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved Resolution 2023-012, which recommended the above stated land use amendment for approval by City Council. The public notification process was complied with, and the appropriate public hearing as required by Seward City Code § 15.01.040.

Motion (CharbonneauNerhey) Approve Resolution 2023-011 Bringhurst said this resolution would create two new parcels, both of which already had access to sewer and water. There was a road continuation platted, but the road would need to be constructed. Electric would have to be brought in, as well as a fire hydrant at the end of the newly- constructed cul-de-sac portion of the new road. The remainder of the parcel would remain in its current state. Lot 5A would be the only lot in the flood zone. Notice of the public hearing being posted and published as required by law was noted and the public hearing was opened. Steve Leirer, inside the city, had provided a laydown earlier today. He wished to divide the property so that new homes could be constructed on a portion of the land. Jennifer Carr, inside the city, lived near this property. She came to the meeting tonight to understand where the housing was proposed to be developed.

Policy #2023-05 June 26, 2023 Page 7 of 7 104 Action Memorandum 2023-007 : Removing Commissioner Monaco From The Planning And Zoning Commission Documents: • Action Memorandum 2023-007 • Board and Commission Attendance Tracking 105 City of Seward Action Memorandum 2023-007 Meeting Date: June 26, 2023 To: City Council From: Norm Regis, Acting City Manager Subject: Action Memorandum 2023-007: Removing Commissioner Monaco From The Planning And Zoning Commission Background and justification: The Planning and Zoning Commission performs the following duties: 1.Interpret the provisions of this title and make compliance determinations when requested by the administrative official. 2.Review and act upon requests for variance permits, conditional use permits, and other matters requiring consideration under the Seward Zoning Code. 3.Review the City of Seward Comprehensive Plan on an annual basis and conduct a minimum of one public hearing. Said recommendations shall be forwarded to the council for consideration. 4.Promote public interest and understanding of comprehensive planning, platting, zoning, land management and other issues relating to community planning and development. In instances where a quorum is not present, the Planning and Zoning Commission is unable to conduct their meetings and the associated work. This presents challenges for stakeholders, staff, and public. Because of this, attendance by Planning and Zoning Commissioners is extremely important. City Code states: 2.30.216 Absences. A. In order for an absence to be excused, a commission member shall notify the city clerk and administration. Except in emergency situations, notice will be given at least 48 hours prior to a commission meeting stating the reason for the member'5 inability to attend the meeting. B. The city clerk will inform the presiding officer of the request for an excused absence prior to the meeting and the presiding officer will rule whether the absence is excused or unexcused. C. When calling the roll call for the meeting, the city clerk will indicate whether a member'5 absence was ruled to be excused or unexcused, and the clerk will make an appropriate notation in the minutes. D. If a member has two consecutive unexcused absences, three unexcused absences total, misses eight meetings in an appointment year, or has a record of attendance which shows disregard for the position and hinders the function of the commission, administration will inform council and the council may remove the member from the commission. 106 E. Member attendance will be submitted in the quarterly report. (Ord. No. 2023-006, § 1, 4-10-2023) Over the course of 2023, Commissioner Monaco has been absent from meetings and shown a disregard for the position of Planning and Zoning Commissioner. It is important to note that not only is the quantity of meetings missed important, so is the manner in which those absences are communicated (or not communicated). If an absence is known to be likely, Commissioners communicating those instances ahead of time is important. If City Administration is aware of the absence ahead of time, the meeting can be re-scheduled. This also shows consideration for those Commissioners who do show up to a meeting. This pattern of lack of communication by Commissioner Monaco has hindered the operation of the Commission and therefore, City Administration recommends City Council removal from the Commission. Commissioner Monaco has had unexcused absences from the past two meetings. In each of these instances, those absences have not been communicated to Administration ahead of time.

Although the City has a current program for assisting Developers, no such mechanism is in place for private landowners. Recently, a petition was filed by several landowners inside City limits, but no code language existed for City Council to provide financial assistance for the cost of the utilities. Additional discussion needs to take place regarding funding such a program as well if this ordinance passes.

The Municipal Land Plan, as approved by City Council via Resolution 2022-107 states, "After relocation, current market property will be available for sale and conversion to residential development.

The Public Works Facility will be relocated to the Fort Raymond property (Map 76. Fort Raymond Vacant Lots — South End). After relocation, current market property will be available for sale and conversion to residential development. Rezone Urban Residential. The animal shelter uses the south 42 feet of the City-owned lots fronting the east side of Sixth Ave. Recommendation is to retain location until the Public Works Shop is built and the Animal Shelter relocated to Sea Lion Ave. Following relocation, property will be for lease or sale. During that time,the alley will need to be continued since it is a ROW and the utilities will need to be extended.

On August 31, 2022, the campground owner signed a Stipulation (see the attached document) and agreed to comply with Seward City Code. The objective of the ongoing communications and stipulation has been to bring the campground into compliance. Since that time, the campground has resumed operation without obtaining the business license and annual camper park permit. City Administration requests City Council approval to take legal actions necessary to ensure the campground ceases to operate until such a time as compliance with City Code is achieved. 8.15.210 Mobile home park and camper park annual permit required.

Tim McDonald is closing this business on September 1', 2022 because of your activities. I sent a letter to the City of Seward on October 29, 2019 contesting the inclusion of the property in special law use district of the city. He does not have the funds to pay the sales tax and would like to have your consideration of the fact he believed he did not owe any sales tax until the August 24a' letter from Borough Assessor (Finance dept.) informing him of three years past due. He believes that he has a potential buyer and it should close by year end. The sales tax will be paid out of the closing. If the city is interested in purchasing the property,let me know. As to the sale tax, he would like some relief since he did not know he was responsible for these taxes until July I3,2022.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. TO: Seward Mayor& City Council: I am interested in being considered to serve on the Seward Electric Ad Hoc Committee. A brief summary of my qualifications are listed below. Residency: I have been a full-time Seward resident for over 10 yrs, and a current homeowner residing within City limits. Prior Experience in Electric Utilities: - During my 17 years living in Nome Alaska in the 80's and early 90's, I was an elected Nome Joint Utility Board Member for six years. (2-terms). Board responsibilities included the hiring and supervision of the Utility Manager and submission of proposed rate schedules, capital improvements, and annual budget to the Nome City Council for approval, The majority of work involved the Electric Department in maintaining the electrical generation and distribution of power to the community. The Utility Board also provided oversight of the Water and Sewer Department budgets and capital improvement projects. The following six years I was elected twice to serve on the Nome City Council which had ultimate authority over approving the Nome Joint Utility budget and capital improvement projects. - Participated in the previous Seward Electric Rate Study. Employment Status: Retired after 40+years in the energy efficiency/building science sector. Current Affiliations: - Appointed to a three year term with the Kenai Peninsula Borough's Resilience and Security Advisory Commission Rural Energy Enterprises- Board Member 20+yrs_ I will be out of town on June 26th and unable to attend the Seward City Council Meeting. I can provide a (dated) resume and am happy to answer any questions you may have. I believe my Alaskan small town electric utility knowledge and experience would be an asset to the Seward Electric Ad Hoc Committee. Thank-you for your consideration, Philip Kaluza 1 172 Kris Peck From: Waves Tours Fiestas <wavestoursfiestas@gmail,com> Sent: Sunday, June 18, 2023 8:41 AM To: Clerks Office Subject: LOI for volunteer position on electric committee External Email:This email originated from outside of the organization.

Dear clerk and council, I would like to submit a letter of interest to sit on the committe regarding Seward's options for electric utility. My time as a resident of Seward over the last 1.0 years as well as my 3 years on the city's PNZ committe will give me a unique perspective to offer the committee. Please consider me as a volunteer to help find a solution to this problem. Thank you for your time, Kelli Hatfield 1 173 Memorandum Date: June 26, 2023 To: City Council From: Kris Peck, City Clerk RE: Discuss current plans for Obihiro delegation exchange and determine budget and parameters for traveling BACKGROUND: There will be 4 Obihiro High School students visiting Seward between July 29 - August 5, 2023 The adult delegation from Obihiro will be visiting August 25 - September 1, 2023 The adult delegation from Seward will be visiting Japan from October 21 - October 31, 2023 DISCUSSION ITEMS AND QUESTIONS: Confirm with city council the budget for the Adult Delegation+High School visits. Discuss application process for Seward Citizens traveling to Japan. Will council offset travel costs for citizens? Do the citizens have to live inside city limits? What are the parameters Council is looking for in delegates? What is the timeline for the application process? Should we count on our delegation going to Obihiro from October 23-31 or will those dates possibly change? So far we can confirm that Seward vice mayor(and his wife)will visit Obihiro in October, as well as two council members, assistant city manager and Chamber of Commerce director. The plan is for 5 city representatives and 5 citizens. The chamber of commerce director is being considered a "citizen" for our planning purposes. In addition to her, we'll have 4 more citizens. At the moment, we're planning for 10 representatives. We are working directly with Chris in Obihiro for planning. The time frame of October 23-31, 2023 fits the Chrysanthemum festival timing in Obihiro. Is there any interest in visiting Kushiro (harbor sister cities) as well before or after Obihiro? If there is a proposal for an itinerary, Chris in Obihiro can have your proposal confirmed and go forward with preparing homestay/activities/arrival/departure accommodations. 174 Cii),of S"award!,Alu.da Planning& 7.r pw, Ut,ving I limas Ja►ruarir 10, 2023 CALL TO ORDER The Jalnuary 10. 2023 regulaar mectinu of the Seward Planning& Zoning Commission was E,silccl tat OrLICI' .at 7:0() p.m. h\ Chair Oarc Suil lVall.
