n
'Mr. Murra) mAed7to'acknowledge receipt of the FY-84
projected budget at this time since it is a proposal.
Seconded by Mr. White. Motion carried by unanimous
voice vote.
B. Res. No. 83-20-R Recognizing The Need For A Multi -Use
Auditorium.
Mr. Peotter moved to adopt Resolution No. 83-20-R. Seconded by
Mrs. Cater.
Dr. Bob Johnson: Just a little background as to how this resolution
got written and why. The Arts Council was concerned when the
Borough Assembly prioritized their capital improvement programs and
put the auditorium on the bottom. It looked like it would be a
long time before we would get an auditorium. The resolution really
is an expression of support on the part of the Assembly recognizing
the need for and the fact that there is a lot of support for an
auditorium.
Dick Rohrer: I want to give you some figures, that are accurate
figures, on what it costs to maintain our public buildings that are
so nice to have. These figures are for the last twelve years and
what we can expect to spend on the new auditorium to maintain it.
In 1972 and 73 the total school budget was $3.7 million and of that
budget $500,000 was for maintenance and operations. That's taking
care of the buildings. That does not include some major
maintenance. In twelve years the total school budget has gone from
$3.7 million to $14 million. That's a 375% increase. The main-
tenance and operations budget has gone from $500,000 to a little
over $3 million. That is just over a 600% increase to maintain
our buildings. It will probably cost $150,000 to $200,000 a year
to maintain the new auditorium. That's janitor, maintenance,
electricity and fuel. That does not include major maintenance.
Resolution No. 83-20-R was adopted by unanimous voice vote.
C. Letter from School Board re: auditorium
Mr. Peotter moved to acknowledge receipt. Seconded by Mr. Arndt.
Motion carried by unanimous voice vote.
D. Letter from Kramer, Chin & Mayo re: billing
Mr. Arndt moved that payment be made to Kramer, Chin & Mayo, Inc.
in the amount of $9,186 for Invoice No. 13432 re: Service District
No. 1 Wastewater Improvement to be funded out of the grant.
Seconded by Mr. Peotter. Motion carried 5-1 with Mr. Murray cast-
ing the NO vote.
E. Letter from Walt Ebell re: VFW Lease
Mr. Arndt moved to refer this back to Staff to come up with a
solution to present to the Assembly at one of the future work
sessions. Seconded by Mr. Murray.
John Bowerman: The Kodiak Island Sportmans Association, holding a
su - e—b T ase with the Veterans of Foreign Wars for a shooting range,
is concerned about the proposed log -hauling operation from Monashka
Bay to Monashka Bay Road. In late Dec. 1982, a rumor of agreement
between the VFW and Timberline, Inc. for the purpose of hauling
logs was brought to the attention of the KISA Executive Board. On
Jan. 4, 1983, KISA sent a letter to the VFW inquiring what the
purpose of the newly improved road passing close to our indoor
shooting range was, and whether or not there was any truth to the
rumor. As of this date we have not received a response from the
VFW. We have received a copy of a letter from Will Walton to the
VFW. Mr. Walton's letter and the borough assembly work session on
Jan. 27 has led us to believe that commercial log hauling
operations are to start soon. As our facility would be directly
affected by the commercial use of the road passing close to our new
range, we feel the need to express our position regarding this
matter.
Motion to refer back to Staff carried by unanimous voice vote.

XI MAYOR'S COMMENTS
NO COMMENTS.
XII ASSEMBLY COMMENTS
Mr. Wakefield: None.
Mrs. Cater: None.
Mr. White: (re: VFW Lease) I kind of feel like we sent Staff out to
check on our problem and they came back with a "bear". We ran into
the cabin and left them outside with the "bear". That wasn't
really our intent, we just basically wanted a cooling -off period.
Mr. Arndt: None.
Mr. Murray: I have a question for the attorney or manager. Do we
have any ordinance that speaks to civil penalties for violations of
zoning laws or whatever that we can impose?
(Rick Garnett/Attorney) We are reviewing that situation and it is
in the works. I think the code as it exists now would permit the
Borough to sue for damages.
Mr. Peotter: I feel we should work up a schedule for lobbying
efforts so that we can have some consistant representation.
