SUBJECT: Authorizing Award of Contract for Serenity House
The Mayor's Office has approved a request of waiver of formal bidding procedures, per KPB Code 5.28.300 for the award of professional services for this project. The Serenity House project consists of the renovation of an existing 5,000 square foot house into a residential treatment facility for recovering substance/alcohol abuse patients.
Two fee proposals were received for the preparation of bid documents, assistance with regulatory approval, and assistance with construction contract administration services:
No. of Points Scope Time Total Points Barnes Architecture, Inc. 100 100 100 300 Kluge & Associates 87 100 95 282
We ask that the Mayor award the contract to the lowest proposer, Barnes Architecture, Inc., for the amount of $33,397.00 due to their lower proposal amount and ability to deliver the services in a shorter time frame to meet the requirements of the project.
Sufficient funding for the projects has been secured. All expenditures for this project will be charged to available funds in account number 490.81111.8DCCH.49311.

SUBJECT: Request to Waive Formal Bidding Procedure for Firefighter Physicals
We are writing to request permission to waive formal bidding procedures for our departments' for Redoubt Medical Clinic, 11472 Kenai Spur, Highway, Ste. 2, Kenai, Alaska. By contract, we are required to provide each firefighter a bi-annual physical. Redoubt Medical has the equipment and personnel in place to conduct firefighter physicals in one visit to the clinic. Chief Baisden's experience with Redoubt Medical is that they provide a timely physical, which can normally be completed within 3 hours. This timely service would allow each department to have employees go on their on-duty day. This decreases the department overtime costs for each service area, a very important issue for each department now. The following is a cost analysis of the three doctors Nikiski Fire Department has used and is an average of physical costs as age, type of Hepatitis shots needed and required tests differ on an individual basis. Chief Mokracek would also like to include Central Emergency Services in this agreement based on this data and Chief Baisden's experience.
o Kenai Medical Clinic $1,071.25 o Dr. Cooper $1,411.00 o Redoubt Medical Clinic $ 985.00
The quoted firefighter physicals comply with NFPA 1582 - Comprehensive Occupational Medical Program for Fire Departments and include: physician

exam, treadmill, chest x-ray, hearing test, 12-lead ECG, blood work and OSHA required respiratory protection questionnaire and evaluation.
If you have any questions, please call Chief Baisden at 283-4202 or Chief Mokracek at 262-4792. Nikiski Fire Department would like to input a purchase request for $25,000 for the department's physicals and Central Emergency Services would like to input a purchase request for $45,000 for the department's physicals for F.Y. 2009-2010 upon your approval.

RE: Borough Grant to CARTS
Dear Ms. Golden,
Enclosed is the documentation and fInal report for the above named grant.
CARTS has delivered 26,402 rides so far in 2008, which is an increase of over 21 % for the same time period in 2007. Overall we have delivered 365,010 rides, which is still far more than was originally projected. We are always looking at ways to operate more efficiently, especially with the current price of fuel!
I have included updated charts. If you have any questions please give me a call. We appreciate the continued support from the Borough.
Sincerely,

Total value of construction permits was 163.2%greater than a year ago while the volume of permits increased 48.4%. No report was received from Seldovia. Sales and construction data are strong but unemployment data is mixed. At the end of the quarter, both the labor force and the number of employed workers were greater than one year ago, but the labor force had increased at a greater rate than employment, resulting in a higher unemployment rate. Unemployment detail is not an actual count, but rather an estimate based upon survey responses and calculations used in the standardized model.
Sales. First quarter 2008 gross sales, $485,803,526, were $24,314,438 greater than first quarter 2007 when the total reached $461,489,088. Each of the five cities that impose a sales tax had increased gross sales when compared to one year earlier although the KPB region outside the cities had a 0.2% decrease in total gross sales. Taxable sales continued to rise, reaching $178,503,974, gaining $9,367,236 over the 2007frrst quarter total of $169,136,738. All areas saw increased quarterly sales.
Note - As conversion to the new sales tax software continues, there will be some dramatic changes. In particular at this time, sales by land andwater guides have been removed from transportation into their separate categories under tourism. The increase in tourism sales from 2005 to 2006, and similar decrease in transportation over the same period is a result of fine tuning the system. Such situations will continue for another year or so as the process of updating is completed.
Construction. Construction permit values for first quarter 2008 rebounded as total permitting reached $6,501,968, an increase of $4,031 ,458 over the first quarter 2007 total, $2,470,510. Volume of permits issued increased from 31 permits during first quarter of 2007 to issuance of 46 permits during the most recent quarter. Both value and volume, while not setting record highs, provided strong activity for the quarter.
Unemployment. Four sets of unemployment data are estimated each month, based upon survey data which is entered into a federal standardized model. Comparing first quarter 2008 unemployment statistics with those of first quarter 2007 we find the following. The 2008 quarterly average monthly labor force stood at 24,962, up from 24,637, a gain of 325 persons. Average monthly employment for the period was 22,399, gaining 186 jobs over the 22,213 persons employed during the same period of2007. Unemployment increased to a quarterly average monthly of2,562. This is 138 additional unemployed persons when compared to the 2,424 estimate of first quarter 2007. The quarterly average monthly of 2,101 persons to 1,967 during 2007. The corresponding

quarterly average monthly unemployment rate increased to 10.3% from the 2007 first quarter average of9.8%.
Projects: Northern Dynasty continues to research the copper, gold and molybdenum deposit known as Pebble Mine. Construction of a natural gas pipeline from the North Slope remains in the news as TransCanada, the one company meeting AGIA standards, is under scrutiny of the legislature. ConocoPhillips is moving forward with a plan that does not meet AGIA standards, but which it feels would more likely be a successful project due to taxation stability. ANGDA is considering development of a spur line to supply gas to Alaskan residents, a pipeline that would have a smaller diameter, reducing cost, but also reducing the volume ofgas that could be transported. Enstar is researching a bullet line that would bring gas from the Gubik region down to Anchorage where it could be distributed to users through existing pipelines.
Agrium, after determination that a proposed coal gasificationplant is not economically feasible, has begun moth-balling the plant. ConocoPhillips has received federal approval of their application for a two year extension to their liquid natural gas export license which would have expired during 2009.

Kenai Peninsula Borough ATTN: Bonnie Golden; Grants Manager 144 N. Binkley Street Soldotna, Alaska 99669
Dear Bonnie:
Please consider this the final report for the grant made to Central Peninsula Health Centers in 2007 in the amount of $50,000 to help fund the construction of the Peninsula Community Health Center in Soldotna.
Central Peninsula Health Centers was able to use these funds to pay a portion of one of our contractor's invoices(copies of invoice and checks attached). This contribution by the Borough also enabled us to meet a grant requirement imposed by the Rasmuson Foundation to raise $50,000 in local government support towards the project. Since we were able to meet this, and all other reqtiirements,the Rasmuson Foundation contributed $1,000,000 to the project. We were also able to use these funds as matching funds against a grant from the M.J Murdock Charitable Trust, enabling us to secure an additional $25,000 in funding.
We appreciate the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly's support of this project. If you require any additional information, don;t hesitat~ to contact me at the number listed below.
Sincerely,
