The application up for approval is requesting the establishment of a utility special assessment district for financing the construction of extension.
Another discussion aims to support veterans by keeping the cross on the Kenai Veteran’s Memorial.
Assembly Member Kelly Wolf drafted the resolution.
Wolf: “This is about recognizing those veterans that no longer have a voice. I believe very strongly that this is a Christian nation and it was founded by men of faith.”
He stated that about a tenth of the Kenai Peninsula’s residents are veterans.
The meeting will be held at 6:00 pm in the Borough Assembly Chambers in Soldotna.
