Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Minutes
June 6, 2013 Page 1217
Eight responses were received and evaluated; one of the eight responses was deemed as
unresponsive due to the company's limited qualifications and capabilities. Borough staff
attended four software demonstrations presented by the top rated responding firms: iCompass
Technologies, Inc., Provox Systems, Inc., Granicus, Inc., and Carasoft Technology Corporation.

features, and usability, and chose iCompass Technologies, Inc. as the firm that would provide
the best overall value to the Borough. Staff negotiated scope, schedule, and price with
iCompass Technologies, Inc. resulting in the proposed contract.
The initial contract term was five years for a cost of $24,500 which included onsite training for
staff. Support and maintenance for years two through five was $5,500 per year. The total cost

Resolutions
1. Resolution No. FY2011-08C Amending the Composition of the Project Advisory Committee
(PAC). This item was approved under the consent agenda.
The Borough hired a consultant to work with the community and the Planning and Zoning
Commission to update portions of Borough Code that regulated land division (Subdivision), land
regulation (Zoning), and Borough owned property (Borough Real Property). As part of the
review, the consultants recommended that there be a committee made up of Kodiak residents
who would represent a broad cross-section of the community and who were familiar with local
regulations affecting public and private lands.
The committee, known as the Project Advisory Committee (PAC) met more than a dozen times
to review the draft codes produced by the code revision process. The committee was working
on concluding its work and it appeared that the loss of participating members would not allow
the committee to make a quorum. It was recommended that the PAC membership be amended
one final time so that the core of the remaining members most familiar with the draft codes
could complete their charge. Unfortunately, the last time this issue was considered in May 2013,
a member who had substantially participated in the process was unintentionally dropped and
another member who had not participated was reappointed to the PAC. The amended
resolution would correct this oversight.
2. Resolution No. FY2013-32 A Joint Resolution of the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly and
Kodiak City Council Documenting the Kodiak Fisheries Work Group's Scope and Authority.
KAPLAN moved to adopt Resolution No. FY2013-32.
At the Assembly/City Council joint work session of September 4, 2012, the Kodiak Fisheries
Work Group (KFWG) representatives and Fisheries Analyst Consultant Denby Lloyd presented
the conditions of the overall approach of the group. It was recommended to both governing
bodies to adopt a joint resolution supporting the efforts of the overall approach established by
the KFWG.
Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Minutes
June 6, 2013 Page 1219
Resolution No. FY2013-09, a joint resolution of the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly and the
Kodiak City Council supported the overall approach to fishery issues by forming the KFWG.
Resolution No. FY2012-32, a joint resolution of the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly and the
Kodiak City Council, documented the KFWG's scope and authority. The resolution specifically
addressed the membership, the organization, and purpose, along with administrative
assistance, consensus, agenda, meeting notes/summary, and reporting guidelines.
•
The scope of authority was reviewed and approved at the KFWG meeting on May 28, 2013, and
submitted to the Joint City/Borough work session on May 28, 2013.
ROLL CALL VOTE ON MOTION CARRIED FIVE TO ONE: Kaplan, Lynch, Stephens,
Austerman, Bonney, and Griffin.
Ordinances for Introduction
1. Ordinance No. FY2013-17 Rezone a 3.92 Acre Portion of Tract 6, US Survey 5509 Port
Lions Subdivision from RR2-Rural Residential Two to PL-Public Use Land (P&Z Case13-
023, City of Port Lions).
GRIFFIN moved to adopt Ordinance No. FY2013-17 in first reading to advance to public hearing
at the next regular meeting of the Assembly.
The City of Port Lions planned to develop a Sewage Sludge Lagoon adjacent to the existing
land fill site. The Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium would provide the design and
construction of the facility on City owned land. This would improve the health, safety, and
general welfare of the community while moving the community into compliance with Alaska
Department of Environmental Conservation regulations.
The Commission held a public hearing on May 15, 2013 on this request and found the request
was consistent with the goals and objectives of the 2008 Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive
Plan Update.
ROLL CALL VOTE ON MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY: Lynch, Stephens, Austerman,
Bonney, Griffin, and Kaplan.
2. Ordinance No. FY2013-18 Rezone to Allow for the Proposed Expansion of the Old Harbor
Airport from R1-Single Family Residential to LI-Light Industrial (P&Z Case 13-026, City of
Old Harbor).
AUSTERMAN moved to adopt Ordinance No. FY2013-18 in first reading to advance to public
hearing at the next regular meeting of the Assembly.
The City of Old Harbor and the Old Harbor Native Corporation made plans to expand the Old
Harbor Airport in order to increase the safety and capability of the essential transportation
infrastructure. In particular, the project would require substantial relocation of material on the
site and drainage improvements. This would require a new survey at the conclusion of the
project to account for the material relocations and overall increase in area coverage.

•
When the existing Old Harbor Airport was constructed the project was granted a zoning
exception by the Planning and Zoning Commission. This procedure was no longer in the code
for various reasons, but all existing exception uses were considered to be non-conforming uses;
meaning that they could continue to be used and maintained but not expanded. This rezone
was consistent with the comprehensive plan designation and also would bring the Old Harbor
Airport zoning into compliance with KIBC Title 17 Zoning.
The Commission held a public hearing on April 17, 2013 on the request and found the request
was consistent with the goals and objectives of the 2008 Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive
Plan Update.

Griffin, Kaplan, and Lynch.
Other Items
1. Approval of a 7.5-Foot Vacation of a 10-Foot Wide Easement in Accordance with KIBC
16.60.060 Along the South Lot Line of Lot 8, Block 2, Island Vista Subdivision (P&Z Case
13-019, Sundberg).
AUSTERMAN moved to approve the vacation of a 7.5-foot wide portion of a 10-foot utility
easement along the south lot line of Lot 8, Block 2, Island Vista Subdivision.
The Planning and Zoning Commission granted approval of a preliminary plat where the
applicants had shown the requested need to vacate a 7.5-foot portion of an existing 10-foot
utility easement. The existing utility easement currently served no known utility provider. One
potential user of the utility easement had expressed reservations regarding the proposed
easement vacation, and had instead suggested the option of vacating only that portion of the
easement where the existing single-family residence was located. Because there was a
vacation of a utility easement involved, KIBC 16.60.060 required assembly review and approval.
If approved, the applicant would submit a final plat that would meet Borough code requirements.

Kaplan, Lynch, and Stephens.
2. Approval of the Vacation of a 20-Foot Wide Utility Easement, in Accordance with KIBC
16.60.060, Centered on the Common Boundary of Lots 1C and 1D, Block 5, Bells Flats
Alaska Subdivision (P&Z Case S13-022, Ness).
KAPLAN moved to approve the vacation of a 20-foot wide utility easement centered 10-feet on
either side of the lot line common to Lots 1C and 1 D, Block 5, Bells Flats Alaska Subdivision.
The Planning and Zoning Commission granted approval of a preliminary plat where the
applicants had shown the need to vacate a 20-foot wide utility easement. The utility easement
was centered 10-feet on either side of the lot line common to Lots 1C and 1D, Block 5, Bells
Flats Alaska Subdivision. The existing utility easement currently served no known utility
provider. No recognized utility provider expressed a future interest or need in maintaining the
Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Minutes

current utility easement. Because there was a vacation of a utility easement involved, KIBC
16.60.060 required assembly review and approval. If approved, the applicant would submit a
final plat that would meet Borough code requirements.
ROLL CALL VOTE ON MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY: Bonney, Griffin, Kaplan, Lynch,
Stephens, and Austerman.
3. Hiring for the Position of Community Development Director at Salary Range 24.0, Step K.
AUSTERMAN moved to authorize the salary placement of the Community Development
Director at Salary Range 24, Step K.
The Community Development Department (CDD) Director position had been officially vacant
since January 2013, but had been unofficial vacant since June 2012. After advertising in
newspapers and in Planning periodicals, negotiations took place with an applicant that had
many years as a Planner, a Planning Director, and who had Kodiak experience. This individual
was felt to be the most qualified to manage a department that was currently down two staff
members, and had an outstanding project of finalizing a new zoning and subdivision code.
It was recommended that the Assembly approve the request to exceed the Step C rating and
offer the job at Step K. As stated above, the applicant met the qualifications and required duties
of the position. Also, the recent salary and compensation study indicated the mid-range of the
CDD position at $111,110.44, well above the $94,925 that had been the negotiated salary with
the Planning Director applicant. Based on the applicant's qualifications, work history, and
familiarity of Kodiak, it was recommended that the applicant be hired at a Range 24, Step K.
ROLL CALL VOTE ON MOTION CARRIED FIVE TO ONE: Griffin, Kaplan, Lynch, Austerman,
and Bonney (Ayes); Stephens (No).
4. Declaring a Seat on the Kodiak Fisheries Advisory Committee Vacant (Al Burch). This item
was approved under the consent agenda.
On May 9, 2013, the Clerk's Office received notice of Mr. Al Burch's resignation as the Trawl
Vessels representative on the Kodiak Fisheries Advisory Committee, a joint committee of the
City of Kodiak and Kodiak Island Borough.
Per Resolution No. FY2007-38 (§3): "The term of Kodiak Fisheries Advisory Committee
appointments shall be three (3) years, provided that appointees' terms shall extend until their
replacements are named and accept their appointment, and further provided that the Borough
Assembly and City Council may modify the term of any or all Committee appointments at any
