8. Board Member Comments:
Jeff Stewart —The Bayside Fire Department had the road blocked off so cars dumping garbage
have to back out instead of drive on through. It's a bad situation.
Nathan Svoboda — Wanted to express his appreciation to Bob Tucker and his staff for tackling
this humongous document. (Alaska Waste Contract).
Scott Arndt — He received complaints on all the dumpsters being full. It was discussed by the
Board and found it may have been because it was clean-up day that this was a problem.
Nick Szabo—Thanked Borough Staff for their support and dedication.
