DISCUSSION: KFDA Chairperson Linda Freed will be present at this work session. On September 1, 2022, Regular meeting, the following were part of the discussion regarding the KFDA by-laws. Assembly member Scott Arndt thought about proposing the following amendments: 1. Section 3.C, would like the old language ”[four sevenths (4/7) vote of all directors]” to stay 2. Section 10, Quorum, would like to delete new language and revise old language to state [Presence of four sevenths 4/7 of the directors] 3. There was also discussion about changing the terms to the end of the year instead of July Agenda summary presented to the Assembly on September 1, 2022. The Kodiak Fisheries Development Association (KFDA) Board of Directors is proposing a number of amendments to their bylaws. KFDA bylaws may only be amended jointly by resolution of the Kodiak Island Borough and the Kodiak City Council. KFDA's current bylaws were adopted by the initial board of directors in 2005 and have not been revised since. On September 29, 2021, Linda Freed provided an update to the City Council and Kodiak Island Borough Assembly at their joint work session, including a secretary and treasurer report from KFDA and the proposed bylaws revisions. On August 15, 2022, Linda Freed contacted the Borough Clerk's Office and asked the resolution be placed on the agenda for Assembly consideration. The bylaws amend the quorum requirements and allow the directors to meet for their annual meeting in September. At the time of drafting this agenda summary, the City of Kodiak has a similar resolution scheduled for consideration on August 25, 2022. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-11 to accept the proposed bylaws revisions for KFDA. 2. Do not adopt Resolution No. 2023-11. KFDA's bylaws will remain unchanged. FISCAL IMPACT: AGENDA ITEM #2.a.

State’s Fiscal Status: The Alaska Department of Revenue recently revised the its revenue forecast in a notice to policymakers. Based on current events and global futures predictions, the department has revised its FY 2023 revenue projection by a reduction of about $9 per barrel and the FY 2024 projection by a drop of nearly $10 per barrel. The budget impact is a drop in revenue of between $700 to $800 million for each fiscal year, which is a drop in unrestricted general fund revenue of approximately 15% each year. Forward Funding of FY 2024 K-12 Education Budget: If the new revenue forecast turns out to be correct, most and possibly all the funding set aside to forward fund the K-12 education budget in FY 2024 will be in jeopardy. Under this scenario the 33rd Alaska State Legislature would need to debate and fund K-12 in next year’s budget, which is similar to how the matter has been handled over the last several years. More information can be found in this news article. School Debt Reimbursement Funding: Trying to predict what the governor will do as far as funding the state’s share of school debt reimbursement in FY 2024 is difficult. Based on past practice, I would expect to see full funding of this item by the legislature. If Governor Dunleavy is re-elected, his decision this year to not veto any of the school debt reimbursement funding (including the full reimbursement for the years going back to 2017) suggests there should be a willingness to do the same going forward absent a major fiscal meltdown. On the other hand, some administration officials made comments during the 2022 legislative session that were unclear about how this matter might be handled in the future. Base Student Allocation (BSA) Changes : The last BSA increase took effect in FY 2016. The amount of $5,930 per the average adjusted daily membership (AADM) has remained unchanged since then. While there have been several attempts by legislators over the last six years to either increase this amount or institute inflation-proofing, none of these measures were enacted into law. I would expect to see a continued push in this regard next session. The high levels of inflation experienced in 2021 and 2022 might provide enough impetus to make a change, but it will depend to a large extent on the state’s overall fiscal situation as well as the outcome of the gubernatorial and legislative races. AGENDA ITEM #2.b. Presentation From Borough Lobbyist Mark Hickey Page 17 of 35 KIB Lobbyist Report 2 September 23, 2022 Other FY 2024 Budget Challenges/Threats: The following is the list of other potential challenges or threats that may confront municipalities in the upcoming session. The state’s fiscal situation, new legislature organizations and outcome of the gubernatorial race will have a major bearing on what might become an issue. I’ll discuss these items in more detail at the work session. • Reduced community assistance funding (including impact of expanded PCE program under SB 243). • AMHS budget impact if IIJA grant funds are not received for calendar year 2023 operating budget. • Reduction or change in annual state PERS/TRS unfunded liability contribution. • Attempts to eliminate or reduce the PCE endowment fund. • Revenue measures – state sales tax, motor fuel taxes increase. • Partial or full elimination of state shared fisheries tax revenue. Tustumena Vessel Replacement (TVR) Project: The Alaska Marine Highway System (AMHS) continues work to construct a new vessel to replace the M/V Tustumena. After a delay of three years, Governor Dunleavy gave his approval in December 2021 to proceed. In July 2022, the initial Request for Proposals to select a team under the Construction Manager /General Contractor (CM/GC) procurement method was cancelled due to some project complexities and an inadequate number of responses. AMHS is splitting the project into three pieces and intends to re-advertise the longest lead time element shortly. Despite these delays, AMHS believes the project remains on target for the new vessel to enter service in early 2027. More information can be found here, including a technical presentation about the new vessel. Kodiak Transportation Projects Status: The following is a brief update on the status of several Kodiak transportation projects under active development by the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (DOT&PF). • Chiniak Highway Rehabilitation (Milepost 15 to 31): This is a two-stage project to preserve and rehabilitate the roadway subgrade and surface of about 16 miles of the Chiniak Highway from Milepost 15 to the end of pavement just beyond Milepost 31. Other improvements will include lighting, guardrail, drainage, culverts, and other roadway needs as required. Construction cost is estimated at $16 million. Current plan is to obligate the funds at the end of federal fiscal year (FFY) 2023, with construction activity commencing by June 2024. The second stage to complete the project is under design but the construction phase is not included in the 2020-2023 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). A list of current Kodiak STIP projects can be found here by searching under Kodiak Island Borough. • Rezanof Drive Resurface – Marine Way to Airport: Scope is to resurface this section and perform minor structural improvements, drainage repairs, and striping. The department had planned to perform this work as part of its Preventative Maintenance Program, but recently added it to the STIP as a stand-alone project with its own funding. Construction cost is estimated at $9 million. Construction work is planned to occur in 2024. • Otmeloi Way Reconstruction Project: The project is moving ahead and remains in active design. Scope is to reconstruct and pave Otmeloi Way. Possible design changes are under discussion with the borough to reduce construction cost. The department’s intent is to construct the project in 2024 depending on timely resolution of final scope decisions. • Sargent Creek Bridge Replacement: Replacement of the Sargent Creek Bridge on Rezanof Drive was recently added to the STIP. The current cost estimate is about $4 million. Design efforts are expected to begin shortly, with construction anticipated after FFY 2023. Discussions and planning coordination between borough staff and the department continue to identify and fund a more comprehensive solution to the problems impacting both Rezanof Drive and adjacent borough roads such as Sargent Creek Road. AGENDA ITEM #2.b. Presentation From Borough Lobbyist Mark Hickey Page 18 of 35 KIB Lobbyist Report 3 September 23, 2022 • Kodiak Airport Apron and Taxiways C, D & F Rehabilitation Project: This is a major rehabilitation project estimated to cost more than $45 million, with construction scheduled to occur over three years. Project scope includes replacement of existing pavement and airport lighting throughout the facility. The main apron will be reconstructed and strengthen. A more complete summary and project update can be found here. Sampling of possible PFAS contamination has been delayed this year and is now scheduled to occur during summer 2023. Construction is scheduled to start in 2024. • Kodiak Airport Perimeter Fencing Upgrade: Project has been delayed since 2021 primarily due to contamination issues that have now been addressed. New bid package is expected to go out in October 2022. Construction is now expected to occur in 2023. • Port Lions Airport Improvement Project: This project is to realign, lengthen, and widen the existing airport to meet Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) guidelines. Runway length will go from 2,200-feet to 3,300-feet. The new projected cost estimate is $24 million. The project is now under design. Additional costs include addressing some land acquisition not initially identified. Following re-evaluation at the spring 2022 Airport Project Evaluation Board (APEB) meeting, construction is now planned for either 2025 or 2026. AGENDA ITEM #2.b. Presentation From Borough Lobbyist Mark Hickey Page 19 of 35 KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH STAFF REPORT SEPTEMBER 29, 2022 ASSEMBLY WORK SESSION Kodiak Island Borough SUBJECT: Employee Compensation Study Discussion ORIGINATOR: Meagan Christiansen, Grant Writer/Special Projects Support RECOMMENDATION: For Assembly discussion on how to proceed with this item. DISCUSSION: This item was initially presented to the Assembly on August 4 and failed. It is was brought before the Assembly again on September 1 at the request of the Mayor and if failed again. KIBC 2.30.070(O) states the same motion that receives the same outcome two meetings in a row shall not be revisited for six months unless the members by a majority vote agree to do so. AS 44.62.310 (h.2a) defines “meeting” as a gathering of members of a government body when more than three members or a majority of the members, whichever is less, are present. Order of the meetings held: • August 4 regular meeting, motion to award failed • August 25 a special meeting was held • September 1 regular meeting, motion to award failed The motion to award to Gallagher did not receive the same outcome two meetings in a row since a special meeting was held in between. The motion can be brought back if needed. Please note that the code’s restriction is “on the same motion that failed” NOT on the subject of discussion. The Assembly can place the compensation study on the agenda at any time if it wishes to. Agenda Summary on August 4, 2022: The Assembly directed Manager Murphy to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a contractor to produce an Employee Compensation Study. The RFP was advertised and four proposals were received. Staff reviewed the proposals and narrowed the choices to two. Because Manager Murphy is no longer available to participate in the recommendation of a proposer, staff is requesting that the Assembly review the two final proposals and select a proposer for the contract to conduct an employee compensation study.

Employee Compensation Study Discussion Page 21 of 35 Page 1 of 7 KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION STUDY Consulting Services Required to Assist the Kodiak Island Borough with an Employee Compensation Study The Kodiak Island Borough is requesting sealed proposals from qualified consulting firms to conduct a Compensation Study of Kodiak Island Borough employee positions. Services shall include a comprehensive evaluation and review of employee compensation, and recommendations for modifications to the existing compensation rates. I. INTRODUCTION The Kodiak Island Borough (the “Borough”) is a second-class borough incorporated in the State of Alaska on September 24, 1963. The Borough currently operates under a manager form of government. The Manager is hired by the Assembly and oversees the day-to-day affairs of the Borough. The Assembly is comprised of seven members elected by the public to govern the Borough. The Borough Mayor, also elected by the people, presides over the Assembly, votes only in the case of a tie, and serves as a ceremonial figure for certain Borough affairs. The day-to-day business of the Borough is conducted within six departments: Manager’s Office, Clerk’s Office, Finance Department, Assessing, Community Development and Engineering/Facilities. Kodiak is the largest island in the State of Alaska and the second largest in the United States, second only to the island of Hawaii. Located in the Gulf of Alaska, accessed only by boat or plane, the Kodiak Island Borough faces unique challenges in providing services to 13,000 residents. The majority of the population lives within the City of Kodiak and surrounding area, while several small cities and villages exist in more remote areas of the island. II. NATURE OF SERVICES REQUIRED A. Objective The Borough desires to enter into a contract with a firm for the purpose of conducting an Employee Compensation Study of all authorized positions. The objective of the study is to make recommendations for, and to facilitate the development and implementation of a salary AGENDA ITEM #2.c. Employee Compensation Study Discussion Page 22 of 35 Page 2 of 7 administration program that will enable the Borough to competitively recruit new employees, retain the current workforce and to motivate employees to excel in job performance. B. Overview The last Classification and Compensation Study occurred in 2012 and the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly has requested the development of this study to ensure that compensation rates are fair and within the current market range for Borough employee positions. The 2012 Compensation Plan covers all employees except the Manager and Clerk who are currently paid per contract. The Compensation Plan includes a salary progression of approximately two and one-half percent (2.5%) upon an employee receiving an overall rating of “Satisfactory/Average” or higher on an annual evaluation. Employees who have reached the last step of their pay range are not eligible for an increase unless they become eligible for longevity pay which is an additional 5% of the employee’s current pay rate. Many of the Borough’s employees are represented in a collective bargaining agreement with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 1547. To date, union and non- union employees receive substantially the same health and other benefits. C. Scope of the Project The Borough is seeking a qualified and experienced individual or firm to conduct a compensation study that will result in the design and implementation of a comprehensive compensation plan that will enable the Borough to competitively recruit new employees, maintain its current workforce, and motivate employees to excel in job performance.

AGENDA ITEM #2.c. Employee Compensation Study Discussion Page 23 of 35 Page 3 of 7 o Develop and present recommendations and impact studies including the cost of adjusting salary ranges of employees to proposed levels and the future impact of recommended changes. o Present recommendations to Borough staff and to the Mayor and Assembly.
