Kenai City Council approval of the proposed four foot by eight foot highway frontage sign for Lawton Acres, also known as Kenai’s ‘field of flowers’, will be up for discussion at the next council meeting.
The Kenai City Clerk’s note on the agenda stated “This item was referred to the Beautification Committee and then the Airport Commission; a Motion to Construct a Sign as Outlined by the Airport Commission in on the Floor.”
Previously Council Member Henry Knackstedt spoke about the project to install the sign: “An attractive sign will bring attention to the field from the highway, and shows that the field is a cooperative effort between the Airport and City of Kenai.”
The sign proposal includes the airport logo or wording of “property of Kenai Municipal Airport”. City council members previously expressed opposition to the wording citing “cause for confusion”.
The approval of the signage will go before the city council at their meeting on December 5.
