XI MAYORS COMMENTS
1. The new Board of Fire Protection Area Number One should meet as
soon as possible and be sure the alternate is invited also.
Chuck Lewis, Sr. should also be notified if he is available.
I think the main thing in my mind that needed to be looked at
is the financial feasibility of operating. We might meet with
Mr. Magnussen possibly in a work session to review and see that
it will be financially feasible to operate the facility before
we go ahead and build it.
2. Just a few brief comments about our village tours to Ouzinkie
and Port Lions. It was a very productive trip and well worth
the time and expense of the plane. Some of things that
impressed me were the cleanliness and the attitudes toward the
schools in both communities. I felt that both facilities
needed playgrounds.
3. Pursuant to the work session the Assembly had, I would like to
request that the Personnel Board meet to review their current
policy pertaining to the employee salary increases for the
FY 1984. Including looking at different policies of step
increases, COLA increase, longevity, merit increase, comp time
and consideration of possibly sometimes using percent raise
versus flat -rate dollar raise in some instances. Also,
KIB Assembly Mtg. - May 6, 1982 Page 7
consider some of the positions as well.
XII ASSEMBLY COMMENTS
Mr. Anderson: No Comments.
Mr. Wakefield: I appreciated getting to take the tours also. It is
goo t� o FEar
of the concerns the villagers have with relation
to the Borough.
Mr. Beaty: I would like to request that the Architectural Review
Board review Title 15 and see if we can't get that updated with the
— latest codes and any amendments.
Mr. White: I would like to direct Staff to draft a resolution that
allows Kodiak Island Borough Service Districts a fifty cents (50Q)
per yard reduction for gravel.
I would also direct Staff to draw up a resolution that addresses
the maintenance and responsibilities of the Bells Flats haul road.
I also have a concern about land sales, we haven't moved on any
land for sometime now and I think it is about time that we have the
Staff plan for a land sale either this summer or this fall. We
need to proceed with subdividing.
Mr. Arndt: I agree with Lonnie on looking into the land disposal.
Mr. Murray: I wonder if Staff got the earlier discussion concerning
t ei�hospital incoming balance sheet? I think we should have a
closer cooperative working relationship between our management and
the hospital's management so that we don't spend our time both as
decision makers from the Assembly and also the hospital board on
things that really staff could more appropriately handle and bring
solutions and recommendations to us.
I certainly enjoyed the trip to Port Lions & Ouzinkie and feel it's
a valuable part of our task as Assemblymen to get out and to
visibly see some of the project that come across our desk.
I would like to direct Staff to write letters to the second class
cities and ask to receive copies of their FY 82 budget and draft
FY 83 budgets if those are available. I also think, if we aren't
doing it already, perhaps it would be a good policy to send draft
copies of our budget to those municipalities for their review and
comments.
Mr. Peotter: I would like to have the Manager write to the villages
of Ouzin ie and Port Lions telling them we appreciated their
hospitality.
On the 50t per yard for gravel extraction, I think we should be
cautious and state in there something to the affect the amount of
money the Borough receives for that gravel because we have a clause
in there that is amended annually and if we do it in an ordinance I
think it should reflect that.
Mr. Peotter moved to reconsider the action taken on Item D under Old
Business (Architect For Long Range Hospital Plan). Seconded by Mr.
Arndt. Motion carried 6-1 with Mr. Beaty casting the NO vote.
(Mr. Peotter moved that the Staff be directed to enter into a contract
with ECl/flyer in the amount not to exceed $50,000 for the architectural
study as part of the long range planning process associated with the
Hospital. Seconded by Mr. Beaty.)
Mr. Murray moved to amend the motion by substituting the firm CTA for
the firm ECl/Hyer. Seconded by Mr. Arndt. Amendment carried 4-3 with
Mr. Anderson, Mr. Beaty and Mr. White casting the NO votes.
-- The main motion as amended carried 5-2 with Mr. Anderson and Mr. Beaty
casting the NO votes.
XIII AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Leroy Cossette: (Property owner of Lot 8 Block 5 Miller Point)
I am concerned about the location of the fire station and would
hope they consider the privacy of the adjacent property owners
when they clear the property and locate the building. I don't
oppose having a fire station there at all it's just having
consideration for the other property owners.
Lorna Arndt: I am wondering, under your abandoned and junk vehicle
program, do I have to haul the ones on my property onto a right-
of-way in order to get rid of them.
