MINUTES
Call to Order and Roll Call:

by Scott Arndt.
Members Present: Borough Staff:
Jim Poulos Ed Van Fleet Dan Millard
Pat Szabo Baine Cater
Norm Wooten Scott Arndt
New Business:
I. Scott Arndt
Scott Arndt briefed the Board about the action taken by the Borough Assembly
in removing him from the Service District No. 1 Advisory Board because of
delinquent taxes and utility bills due the Borough. The action was taken at
the Assembly's September 6 meeting. Scott said he had not been officially
notified to date of the action, and is waiting for a response from the
Assembly regarding his formal appeal about his utility bill.
Ed Van Fleet submitted Resolution No. 85-1 protesting Scott's removal, and
moved to pass and accept Resolution No. 85-1. Jim Poulos seconded the
motion.
Following a discussion, Ed Van Fleet moved to table Resolution No. 85-1
until the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly had extended the courtesy to the
Service District No. 1 Board of officially notifying the Board of its action of
removing Scott Arndt from membership on the Board. The motion was
seconded by Jim Poulos, and passed by unanimous voice vote.
The Advisory Board expressed its displeasure of the Assembly's having taken
this action without any consultation with or notification to the Service District
No. 1 Advisory Board either before or after the action.
II. Knox Christie
Knox Christie, owner of Lot 15B, U. S. Survey 3101, petitioned by letter to
Scott Arndt to be exempt from hooking up his lot to the sewer by
September 30, 1985. Pat Szabo moved to allow no exemption for Knox
Christie to hook up his lot to the sewer system but recommended that the
Borough staff work with Knox Christie in making a temporary hook-up

as long as the permanent hook-up is made within one year of
September 30, 1985. The motion was seconded by Jim Poulos, and the
motion passed by unanimous voice vote.
II. Service District No. 1 Annexation
The Board discussed the vicinity adjacent to Parkside Drive, which is
subject to an annexation vote on October 1, 1985. After being annexed,
Project No. 85-1 would be advertised to be bid in November 1985 with the
bids to be opened the first part of December. The contract would be
awarded the first part of January, and the completion date would be some-
time between August and November 1986.
IV. Capital Improvements Project Priorities Memorandum
The memorandum was discussed. Scott Arndt recommended that out of the
Service District No. 1 balance of $820,900 remaining, that Project No. 85-3
be designed. This covers the area from Otmeloi to Lilly Drive/Antone Way
west of Rezanof Drive East. After discussion the Board agreed to postpone
this action until a later date when the Borough audit information is available.
V. Service District No. 1 Sewer and Water Specifications
The need for uniform sewer and water specifications, with respect to the
District's projects and developer subdivision projects, was discussed. Scott
Arndt recommended that a Request for Proposal be issued to URS Engineering
to develop standard sewer and water specifications for Service District No. 1.
Jim Poulos moved, and Norm Wooten seconded the motion, that the Borough
staff be authorized to issue a Request for Proposals to URS Engineering for
standard sewer and water specifications for Service District No. 1. The
motion passed by unanimous voice vote.
VI. Monashka Bay Utility Feasibility Study
A suggestion was made that a sewer and water feasibility study be considered
for the Monashka Bay area in anticipation of this area eventually being annexed
to Service District No. 1. Because historically, the residents in the Monashka
Bay area have not wanted to participate in Service District No. 1, the Board
agreed to wait for Monashka Bay residents to initiate the request for a
feasibility study through Service District No. 1.
VII. Miscellaneous Discussion
A. Ed Van Fleet requested that customers subject to the September 30, 1985
hook-up deadline be contacted and reminded of the hook-up deadline.
Dan Millard suggested that only those who have not made their intention

to hook up be known be contacted. This action was endorsed by the Board.
B. Dan Millard requested direction regarding customers who will not have
hooked up by September 30, 1985 on Projects No. 82-2 and 82-3. The
Board directed that a letter be sent out to the delinquent customers
giving them 30 days to hook up or water service would be discontinued to
them.
