NEAR ISLAND RESEARCH FACILITY Mr. Hobgood explained that the Near Island Research Facility is at the concept/schematic phase and the board will have two chances to formally vote on, approve, and make recommendations to the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly. This project was originally started by the University of Alaska., because of financial problems it was dropped and the Kodiak Island Borough picked it up. The facility is a multi- tenant facility with about 45.000 square feet. The tenants will be National Marine Fisheries, University of Alaska. National Parks Service. and Fish & Game. The facility will also include a dormitory and a Ctr small pump house. A conditional use permit for the dormitory has been required because it doesn't fall under the zoning of public lands. The dormitory will be run by the University and is part of the project. Architectural Review Board Meeting Minutes, Page Two June 13, 1996 Mr. Hobgood introduced the architect Terry Hyer from ECliHyer in Anchorage. Mr. Hyer has been in Kodiak meeting with the users of the new Facility and has put together a presentation for the Board. Mr. Hyer introduced Brad Leathley and Bob Bruckner, architects with NBBJ Architecture Design • Planning from Seattle. Washington. Mr. Flyer first got involved in the Near Island Research Facility with the University of Alaska. Mr. Hyer was here in April to confirm the conceptual design and begin a kick off on schematic design. This meeting is'a combination of the schematic design for the Boards review and comments lie will then proceed with the Kodiak Island Boroughs approval to move on to design development and construction documents. The blue line drawings are complete copies and the narrative document provided gives a history of the project. Mr. Bruckner gave a detailed presentation on the purpose of the Facility, the environmental setting and a few of the unique qualities of the Near Island Research Facility. Mr. Leathley presented the floor plan of the building. He explained the different users of the facility and their programs. Mr. Bruckner presented highlights on his analysis of the character and influences of the facility. Some of his comments were related to the zincalum finish , also that they were looking at putting cedar siding on the scientific modules although they were proceeding with caution on the cedar siding. A brief question and answer period followed with the Boards comments and concerns. The Boards areas fl of concern were with the amount of water and salt spray getting into the crevices of the facility causing corrosion which is a big problem in Kodiak. A suggestion was made to have louvers pulled into the building and hood the front of them. Another suggestion was to go and look at the other buildings on the island to get an idea of how they held up through the seasons. Another area of concern was how the salt water tank was being lined as the shale aggregate for concrete on the island is of poor quality. The board had a serious problem with cedar siding as it fades fast and shrinks. The boiler room was discussed briefly and it was suggested to have a external door as an entrance as that seemed to help get things in and out of the room easier.
