XII ASSEMBLY COMMENTS
Page 6
Mr. Peotter: Mr. Mayor, I take great pride in saying, I commend you on the
way you handled your first meeting as the official Mayor of
the Kodiak Island Borough.
Mr. Murray: I attended a meetino with the representatives
from Japan who were here on a tour. They were invited here by
the Chamber who is in the process of establishing a sister city
with the city of Kesennuma, Japan. Although we had some
communication problems, they all seemed very enthusiastic. It
was very interesting and enjoyable.
Mr. Arndt: None.
Mr. White: Now that we're making plans for fire service for the Bells Flats
area the road service people have voiced a concern, as well as
some people in the Women's Bay community, that we don't really
have a fire service district set up. I'm not sure of the mechan-
ism we can go about to create a fire service or whether we should
just expand the existing serL�Ice district.
Mr. Wakefield
Mr. Anderson
It was a pretty good Municipal League meeting in Anchorage.
There was a lot of attendance from a lot of areas of the State.
I got a heck of a lot out of going to the Coastal Management
workshop. I learned a lot about what the State can and cannot
do and what the Federal government can and cannot do once we
adopt that plan. The way I understood we are really going to
have a lot more local option than we thought. And a lot more
control on how things are resolved around this island.
I thought the Municipal League meeting was quite good. One
thing I was interested in and worked on over there was trans-
portation (ferry system). They have proposed in their policy
statement for one ferry to serve western Alaska clear out to
Dutch Harbor. I tried to get in the policy statement to have
one mainline ferry and then two feeder ferries.
I would like to commend the Manager on getting the rent from
the City for the last two years.
Also, I was looking at the safety meeting that was held and
how many departments had to have first -aid cards?' Under State
law, department heads & supervisors have to hold a first -aid
card. Just a reminder.
XIII AUDIENCE COMMENTS
None.
