VI. OLD BUSINESS
A. North Star/Otmeloi Bike Path-Mike Sirofchuck reported that a newspaper article
quoted 1.5 million dollars to put a bike path in.
B. White Sands Beach-Parking lot is not big enough to hold all the cars on nice days,
so if DOT could not put a guardrail on both sides it would leave additional
parking spaces. The Department ofFish & Game may have funding available by
the end of summer after the first run of Salmon. Would KID Engineering have
money available for park maintenance, a footbridge, and to put boulders along the
road at the White Sands Beach area. The committee wishes to invite Bud Cassidy
to the May 10th meeting to discuss maintenance and what can be done. Perhaps,
Bud Cassidy would join the committee to walk the White Sands Beach area.
COMMITTEE MEMBER MURPHY FORNER MOTIONED to request ADA
build an access bridge and trail, the broken stump cut to ground level, park
maintenance, a footbridge, and boulders along the road at White Sands Beach for
the 2006 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). COMMITTEE MEMBER JEFF
HUNTLEY SECONDED the motion, and it was CARRIED by unanimous voice
vote.
C. Trail Heads and Pull Outs Related to Summer Road Construction-The committee
wishes to preserve all trail heads and pullouts along Monashka Bay Road. One
priority of the committee is to recommend to Bud Cassidy in the KID Engineering
Department to put in sign post receivers slots further off the road so that they can
go back up, and the signs be replaced before the road project is completed. The
committee agrees there should be an extra two (2) feet of paved shoulder added or
a bike lane along the side of the road. One section of guardrail should be removed
to restore a parking pull out. The committee indicated a request should be
adopted to make recommendations formal to preserve pull outs.
COMMITTEE MEMBER JEFF HUNTLEY MOTIONED to prepare a
Resolution to request on GPS designated pullouts be made available to people, an
additional bike lane between the white line and shoulder/guardrail, pullouts have
beveled access points for vehicles. The motion was SECONDED by
COMMITTEE MEMBER HEATHER TURNER and CARRIED by unanimous
voice vote.
COMMITTEE MEMBER MURPHY FORNER MOTIONED TO AMEND the
Resolution to include GPS points and boulders placed along the road at White
Sands Beach, and a ditch be dug around the restroom. The motion was
SECONDED by COMMITTEE MEMBER KEVIN FOSTER, and CARRIED
by unanimous voice vote.

MEMBER JEFF HUNTLEY, and CARRIED by unanimous voice vote.
C. Parks & Open Space Ordinance Introduction-Copies were distributed.
D. S05-005 Kodiak Community Church-Woodland Acres Subdivision-The
committee requests copies of plats be sent to Parks & Recreation Committee for
review prior to the Planning & Zoning meeting, to be added to the list of review
agencies, to put out an agenda based on the cases that have come in by the agenda
deadline, and to e-mail the list of cases accepted after the first of the month.
