Letter from Dale Tubbs and John Waller re Kodiak Land Co. Material Sale Contract Cora-ec4i ens and Special Use Permit in Bells Flats. Mr. Waller disqualified himself due to financial interest in this matter. Mr. Best explained that he had discussed IDS, +e-s o4-2. this with Mr. Sa.check. There are two sites involved, connected to no 4- n.CLj.-c0,t one another. One is the plant site, which is inside the Borough se ection3 for which the Borough would receive $240/year. The other is the material site for 10,000 cubic yards of gravel. This is outside the Borough selection. The Borough could select the area in order to receive the $2500 for the sale. The stipulations on the plant site agreement are to remove all equipment and restore the site to an orderly condition at the end of the contract. The stipulations on the material site contract are that any removal of gravel at a fishing site must be approved by Fish and Game; the land must be left smooth and any holes replaced, and the pits must not be deeper than 10 feet or the is 2V.co un{ ground water table, w -hp,(is least The Borough could add any other stipulations they wish. The State said that they felt morally obligated to rs� giant this contract for one year in order for the Kodiak Land Co. to come up -P 4-S,tL .s with a firm survey for possible purchase of the land later on. After discussion yen..-s- and map study, Mr. Haney moved, seconded by Mr. Wallace, that it be recommended to the Assembly that they approve the contract for the sale of material per the amended legal description, and the contract for the plant site. Motion i carried by roll call vote with Mr. Waller abstaining. KIBS272554 B. Letter from Bill Proposed Material Sale. The letter was read. Mr. Best explained that this has nothing to do with the previously discussed plant and material sale site, but involves another area that the State has proposed to set aside for gravel sales in order to take care of other requests that they have had. The parcels would be offered under an auction type lease for the material at a certain price per yard. The State has and is still inspecting the water and sewer lines in the area. It has been found that some portions might be used, but it would take considerable work to put them into working order. Some feel that they are not worth salvaging. These sites are within Borough selected land and the Borough would receive the Rands from the sales. The sites are outside of the currently planned subdivision, but Mr. Waller felt that these would make good future building sites and these sales would destroy them. Two of the Commissioners were not familiar with the area. Mr. Welch moved, seconded by Mr. Valley, to table action on this matter until the next meeting in order to give the PLANNING &.ZONING =OMISSION - November 8, 1967 other Commissioners a chance to look at the area. Motion carried by unanimous voice vote. Mr. Stansbury suggested that if the sales were made, the gravel removers could be required to strip the overburden, stockpile it, and replace it after their work is completed. Mr. Haney suggested that the area could then be withheld possibly for a school location or other public use. C. Letter from Bill Sacheck re Land Available for Boro Selection. Letter was read stating that the Borough can select a otal of 52.3 4 acres as of October 23, less the acres already selected. VI PUBLIC HEARINGS - None • 1 7. �i Si_ s'�l�ttl� A.

Mr. Best explained that the City has been paid by the hour for the work Mr. Jones has done for the Borough, but that Mr. Jones had objected to this arrangement because he already has a very heavy workload for the City and receives no additional compensation for the Borough work. Mr. Best suggested to the City that Mr. Jones accomplish the Borough work during hours that he is not working for the City, and that Mr. Jones submit a fee schedule for such an arrangement, but that the City does not look favorably upon this arrangement. This problem must be resolved since Mr. Jones has declined to do any further work for the Borough. XI PLANNING & STAFF ITEMS A. Disc were KJBS272555 Park Ordinance. The following suggestions evision #2 of the Trailer Park Ordinance. 1.
