G. Chair Report
The Chair reported that during the month of December when Kodiak
received record rainfall, the roads, especially Sharatin Road,
were very mushy and because of this condi tion Brechan decided
not to grade the roads. He commended Brechan for getting out and
grading the roads on February 2-4, before the freeze. The issue
with Ivar Malutin was again discussed; his boat needs to be
moved in order to allow the grading of Ocean Drive. It was
decided to submit a letter to Mr. Malutin to remove the boat. E.
Mahoney told the board that there was a flooding problem on Ed's
Way. He said that it seemed that Brechan was not taking the
grader into the smaller areas to remove snow.
H. Old Business
Action Items from past meetings were brought up and further
discussion was held regarding the Malutin situation. It was
brought up that there were neighbors that were complaining about
the boat being an impediment. SL. Adinolfi wanted clarification
if the board had the authorization to proceed with warning
notices. It was mentioned that this direction would come from
Bud Cassidy [Engineering and Facilities] and then the board
would proceed with the notices.
The board briefly discussed snow removal and
dumpsters in the district. S. Arndt noted that
the priority at the time of snow removal.

Drainage issues on Shahafka Circle, on both the north and south
ends, were discussed. It was decided that this should be one of
the priority projects for the board.
I. New Business
1.. IZ.. Arndt wanted to find out vJhat projects the board felt
would be needed for the budget during the new fiscal year. The
board discussed going as a group to visit the service district
to look for possible guardrail, ditching and other various road
problems/issues. Although it was suggested to do this in the
spring the majority of the board decided that on Saturday,
February lSili the board would drive around the service district

and conduct an in depth inspection of the roads. From there, the
board would priori ti ze the proj ects that were di Scovered. E.
Mahoney questioned the advertising process for such an event. If
a full quorum was expected, advertisement would be placed ahead
of time. Transportation would be provided by the Borough.
2. Election of Officers was held. Kevin Arndt and Ed Mahoney

outcome was E. Mahoney with a 4-3 vote. E. Mahoney accepted the
position and said that he looked forward to working as Chair for
the board.
C. Lorensen and S. Arndt were nominated for the vice-chair
position. It was voted S. Arndt, 4-3.
K. Arndt turned the meeting over to E. Mahoney at this time.
J. Public Comments
S. Arndt commended L. Rocheleau for the sanding job that was
done for the roads due to the freeze. S. Adinolfi noted that
Sharatin Road was looking nice. G. Spalinger said that he was
glad to see the gravel was "heavily" being placed on the road.
L. Rocheleau told the board that it would be beneficial to pave
the Woodland Acres roads. He said that although Dl has been put
down and the roads have been graded and compacted, the roads
basically have no rock left in them; and it would become
expensive to continue putting more Dl down.
K. Board Comments
SL. Adinolfi. Questioned whether the upcoming projects were to
be as costly as the previous proj ect done for the Creelman's.
She stated that she was glad that E. Mahoney was getting the
chance to be Chair of the board. She reminded the board that
calls regarding road issues need to be directed to the chair.
The Board member reception being held on February 11 was
mentioned and all were invi ted to attend. L. Rocheleau and K.
Arndt were thanked and commended for the hard work they have
done.

S. Arndt. Spoke about the budget for the upcoming fiscal year.
He wanted the board members to think about the fact that so far
expenses outweighed the revenue for the district. There is
plenty of work to do on the roads and suggested placing more
salt on the roads.
C. Lorensen. None. ~
E. Mahoney. Encouraged the board to call him I at anytime. He
stated that he desired to have a meeting with ~L Arndt and L.
Rocheleau regarding the district roads and those providing
services. He reconfirmed the drive-around meeting to be held

Department.
