PUBLIC COMMENT
Karen McClain expressed concern regarding the cars parked on both sides of Curlew making it

Engineer regarding sending a letter to Dane Larson explaining that this parking situation can not
continue.

FINANCIAL REPORT
The Board reviewed the Financial Report. Kaye McClain commented that on the upper left hand
corner of the Financial Report it shows an elapsed time which reflects how much of the budget
year has passed. The column that reads percent used indicates the percentage that has been used
of each line item. Kaye McClain moved to acknowledge the receipt of the Financial Report.
OLD BUSINESS
Dumpster Pads
Kevin stated that he has spoke with Chris Lynch and she recommended placing a dumpster
behind Eric Lockman's home (Lily Drive) and one on Spruce Cape. Kevin stated that a pad
would have to be built on Lily Drive and it would take 2 or 3 loads of rock. Kevin stated that he
would clarify with Chris Lynch to see where exactly the dumpster should be placed.
NEW BUSINESS
Long Range Planning
Kevin Arndt asked the Board what projects would they like to see take place within the next five
years? He asked that each Board member compile a prioritized list of potential projects. Kaye
McClain suggested including this information in a Program of Work that is turned in with the
Service District #1 budget. With a Program of Work approach, projects could be broke down
into phases. Jennifer Spencer requested that the Board members meet for a work session to
discuss a five-year project plan.
Capital Improvement Projects
Kevin presented the Capital Improvement Program which was prepared by the Kodiak Island
Borough. One of the projects listed is for road repairs on Woodland Drive. Kevin stated that
there are several roads in Service District # 1 that need culdesacs. Ed Mahoney asked if Capital
Improvement Projects are in the scope of the Service District #1 mission? Kaye McClain stated
that it is up to the Board to advise the Assembly on potential Capital Improvement Projects for
the Service District.
Ocean Drive
Rob Greene reported that in Kevin's absence there was a problem with water over ice on Ocean
Drive. The grader operator would stop at Zharoffs and not go down the hill. Rob talked to A-K
Construction and they were not aware that they were suppose to go past the trailer and down to
Spalinger's. Ed stated that there is a power pole in the middle of the culdesac making it
dangerous for a grader to get in and out of there. The sand truck driver told Rob that ifit's too
slick he would not go down Ocean Drive. Rob then contacted A-K Construction and stated that
something else has to be done, this road has to be maintained. A - K responded that they would
use a smaller sand truck so they could go the entire length of the road. Robert Greene asked that
a letter be written to Chris Lynch to have trailer on Ocean Drive removed.
Right of Way
Robert Greene requested that the Chair drive the Service District #1 roads and make a list of all
right of way encroachments. Examples: On Ptarmigan, someone built a green house on the edge
of the road. On Ocean Drive, Zharoffhas a banya next to road. There's a Planter box
encroaching on Woodland Drive and a fifty-five gallon drum mail box encroaching on Sharatin.
These encroachments make it hard for the grader operators to clear the roads.
Paving
Kevin Arndt is in favor of paving and would like it to be considered as a Capital Improvement
Project. Robert Casey voiced an interest in wrapping vs. paving because it costs less. Kevin
Arndt stated he would get prices from A-K Construction for wrapping and paving so planning
can take place for budget purposes.
PUBLIC COMMENT
None
BOARD COMMENTS
Robert Greene reviewed documentation on who is responsible for maintaining Lakeview Drive
and Sawmill Circle extension. Rob stated that the Borough applied for a grant in 1980 to finish
Lakeview and Sawmill and the grant stipulated that the State would not maintain those roads.
Kaye McClain stated that she reviewed a contract that says the State is responsible for the
maintenance. One solution for the residents that this affects is to start their own Service District
or apply to be included in an existing Service District.
Kevin Arndt stated that there would be a Service District work session on 1/18/00, 7:30 p.m. and
a regular meeting on 1/25/00, 7:30 p.m. at Bayside Fire Hall.
