In 2005 a new tide gate was installed by Anderson Constc .ton, an`A thes
ru
cost was paid by Kodiak Island Borough. In 2001 the RIB named
Mission Lake private and to be supported financially by the residents
with lake front property. The new tide gate has made Mission Beach
more accessible to the public with lots of peat and sandy beaches. I
enclose a photo from the Kodiak Daily Mirror of children enjoying the
area. 7-3-2014
The tide gate worked well for the past year with maintenance by the
borough staff. A clasp holding the gate broke and Craig living close to
the problem alerted borough and they repaired the broken hanger. In
time the constant noise of the clanking gate encouraged Craig and
Terrie to request a gasket that makes the gate quieter when moving. It
was installed and has helped the noise problem. There were large
amounts of rain this year filling Mission Lake and the gate handled the
situation well. Craig took a photo of the lake with lots of surging water.
Kodiak Electric Association replaced lines to the telephone pole on the
lot adjacent to the breakwater on 2-2-15.
Snow fell in February and the road was plowed on 2-5-15 early in the
morning.
SLOA has the breakwater lawn mowed, provides breakwater insurance
and road maintenance by Tom Hixon and Kodiak Lawn Service.
The Mission Lake Tide gate committee would like to thank Bob Tucker,
and KIB staff that monitor and repair the breakwater and gate to make
it all work smoothly.
