OLD BUSINESS
A) Saltery Cove Survey Work Update
Mckenna-Foster said this memo is an informational bookmark to go along with the partially
completed asbuilt survey of Saltery. It's a rundown of how we got to this point.
B) Termination Point TMO Status
Mckenna-Foster said this one is here because Tom Quass put it on here. He doesn't know if we
have dates on these or if anything is going on with Termination TMO's, or if you want to do
anything with it.
Discussion
C) Comprehensive Parks & Rec Plan
Mckenna-Foster said this is the resolution that goes before Planning and Zoning tomorrow and
he doesn't think there will be any problem with them approving it. He gave a presentation to the
assembly at their request for this project, and he thinks it will go through them easily also.

Discussion
D) Lake Miam Trail (ITN information)
CHAIR SALTONSTALL stated he talked to Andy Schroeder who said he couldn't come to the
meeting but he said it's very important to have some funding already but they can't do any work
without an easement and he wants the borough to get the easement.
Brief discussion
E) Chiniak Burn Area Land Use Discussion (Rsrc Mgmt Dept)
Mckenna-Foster stated the Resource Management Department talked to him about talking to this
committee about the idea of proposing this some sort of mountain bike park. Right now, the
borough doesn't have much use for it, it's got all these roads that aren't improved roads but it
could potentially be an awesome site.
Brief discussion
NEW BUSINESS
A) Mission Beach Parking Lot Maintenance Discussion
Mckenna-Foster stated someone called to ask that we put this on the agenda so he did. He
doesn't think anything will happen with this because some of the residents requested that the
borough take over the maintenance for this parking lot. It is owned by the Baptist Mission. The
borough has no interest in taking on maintenance on private property or acquiring this property
just to maintain it just because people use it.
Discussion.
Mckenna-Foster said this would be a good candidate for an easement. For the borough to acquire
this, they would have to get a variance for the lot size to subdivide it, they would have to go
through the subdivision process and then get the variance and then do all this other stuff. It would
be much easier to just get an easement across it. That could be part of the plan at the end if we've
identified it. We could take the local data that we've identified, here's the formal facilities and here
are the informal facilities, and here are the steps, the ordinance or resolution that we suggest to
formalize the informal.
During discussion the committee directed Mckenna-Foster to do a letter to the assembly stating
they recognize that parcel as having historical use and community value of a boat launch and
parking area for kayaks and boats.
B) Elections — Chair and Vice -chair
? nominated Patrick Saltonstall for chair.
COMMITTEE MEMBER MILLSTEIN MOVED to re-elect the current slate.
COMMITTEE MEMBER MILLSTEIN MOVED that we retain Patrick as chair and we retain Helm
Johnson as vice -chair.
Discussion of what to do or how to do it.
