Borough committee to apply $30,959 in state cap grant funds to two communities
Summary
The Kenai Peninsula Borough finance committee heard an introduction to Ordinance 2025-13, which would allocate $30,958.82 in previously appropriated state community assistance grant funding to two communities that lacked fiduciaries to accept the award. A hearing is scheduled for Aug. 5, 2025.
An ordinance to apply previously appropriated state community assistance funding to two local communities was introduced at the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly Finance Committee meeting on July 8.
Heather Gere, speaking for administration staff, told the committee the ordinance would move $30,958.82 from the 2024–25 community assistance program to two communities that had been identified to receive cap grant funding but did not have fiduciaries in place to complete applications before the June 30 deadline.
Gere said the communities were identified before June 30 and that the ordinance would authorize the borough to accept and apply the funds on their behalf. No additional details about the specific communities or the projects to be funded were provided during the introduction.
Committee members asked no substantive follow-up questions during the introduction. The ordinance was placed on the committee calendar for a public hearing on Aug. 5, 2025, where the administration said it would be prepared to answer further questions.
The matter remains at the introduction stage; no vote or formal action was taken at the July 8 meeting.
