KEA Projects
There are three major projects currently ongoing with KEA and some of the Service
District work is being held up by KEA. A culvert needs to be put in on Women's Bay
Drive which KEA needs to move primary and secondary before that collection basin can
be finished. Power needs to be rerouted that is in the ditch line at the intersection of Lake
Orbin Drive and Women's Bay Drive. Another major project is from Salmonberry Drive
up to the intersection to move cable over from the left hand side of the road traveling west
to the right hand side of the road into the fill side, this will allow the Service District to
trench down along the section so it will drain and avoid having to go back and redo the
pot holes. From there KEA will go up Kalsin Drive and do a road cut moving more cable
out of the ditch line which if done in a timely manner the Service District can go behind
and do some ditching. In late August or September KEA will move to Noch Drive and
continue where they ended last year connecting into the transformer and transferring the
abandoned section of Noch Drive over to the other side to allow the Service District to
do some culvert work and drainage work that is badly needed in that section. KEA will
do all the trenching then we will follow up with the culvert installations.
Russian River Estates Annexation KIB Ordinance #97-12
Dave Conrad explained to the Board that Ordinance # 97-12 was not open for discussion
at the previous Kodiak Island Borough Assembly meeting as it was the first reading of the
ordinance, public hearing will be heard on Ordinance #97-12 on July 17, 1997. A petition
was sent by the property owners of Russian River Estates to the Service District, Mayor
Jerome Selby and the Kodiak Island Borough. The petition was signed by a majority of
the property owners requesting annexation into the Service District.
There will be a worksession of the Borough Assembly on Thursday, July 10, 1997 that
Dave Conrad will be attending. Mr. Conrad will be representing the Service District
Board at the assembly worksession he encouraged other Board members to attend and
also property owners from the Russian River Estates.
The Board discussed their concerns regarding the condition of the road system in the
Russian River Estates and felt that other members of the Service District should not be
responsible for the cost of upgrading the road system to Borough specifications. Jamie
Godwin spoke to the Boards concern questioning if there was a way to avoid having the
Service District foot the bill for the upgrade. Dave Conrad commented that one of the
ways to avoid the cost is to get a commitment from the property owners or the Borough.

Tom Schwantes moved that Women's Bay Service Area Board recommend to the Kodiak
Island Borough to approve Ordinance 97-12 titled "AN ORDINANCE PLACING THE
QUESTION OF EXTENDING THE WOMEN'S BAY SERVICE AREA ON THE
OCTOBER 7, 1997 BALLOT" on condition that it does not cost the members of the
Women's Bay Service District any additional expenses to bring the road up to Borough
specifications. George Lee seconded. Discussion followed regarding the Boards concerns
on property owners being made aware of who is responsible regarding certain costs to
their property. Dave Conrad also commented that in the petition it stated that Middle
Bay Drive as it comes into the subdivision is sub-standard and the petitioners would like
this issue addressed. The Board agreed that Middle Bay Drive did need additional work
and would bear the cost as it is a road already in the Service District.
Motion passed unanimous voice vote.
NEW BUSINESS
FIRE DEPARTMENT
Training Area/Sargent Creek Rock
Dave Conrad informed the Board that he received a call from Bud Cassidy at the Kodiak
Island Borough who is doing a project at Sargent Creek. There is a large of amount of
river rock or gravel being dug out of Sargent Creek that is available to the Service District
at no cost. The Fire Department will be able to use this gravel in the training area and also
it could be used for large fill jobs on projects.
Fire Chief Dale Rice has written a letter to Comstation Kodiak whose is willing to provide
poles to the Fire Department.
Equipment Replacement
The nozzles on the Fire Department equipment needs to be replaced and the Fire
Department is requesting to have pre-approval from the Board, the replacement cost will
be approximately $500.00 to $600.00 a piece. George Lee moved to approve the Fire
Department expend $2,500.00 to replace the nozzles needed. Ed Gondek seconded.
Motion passed unanimous voice vote.

ROAD SERVICE
Summer Projects
Nancy Kracke spoke to the Board regarding her tax bill from the Kodiak Island Borough
on Lots 26A, 26B, and 26C located at the end ofPanamaroffCreek Drive. Ms. Kracke's
question was concerning that she does not receive road service on lots 26A and 26B. Ms.
Kracke's also had a concern about a drainage basin that contained fingerlings and needed
to be opened up.
The Board discussed the issue of Ms. Kracke's concerns and determined that they need to
address servicing that section of the road as it is in the service district boundaries.
Dave Conrad passed the Chair to Ed Gondek, Vice-Chair. Dave Conrad moved to do the
necessary work to upgrade and maintain the section of the road on Lot sections 26A and
26B on Panamaroff Creek Drive to maintain the section of road up to the end of the
service area. George Lee seconded. Discussion was centered on the issue of the time
constraint it will take to get the work done. Motion Passed unanimous voice vote. Ed
Gondek turned the Chair back to Dave Conrad.
Dave Conrad informed the Board on other summer projects he is waiting for KEA to get
back with him on a cross road culvert for the Bells Flats area also later this summer or
early this fall he would like to use some of the rock from Sargent Creek to rebuild Alitak
Drive. One other area is the Noch Drive project, Ed Gondek talked to the property
owner to get an easement to cross the property. A catch basin is being installed at Alder
Way it just needs some finish work and A-K Construction is working on getting some
asphalt to recycle to make RAP for maintenance on the road.
Nancy Kracke commented that a Yield sign was needed on the corner of Panamaroff
Creek Drive and South Russian Creek Road as the brush in that area is a visual problem.
Ed Gondek had a question if the Kodiak Island Borough was receiving any stumpage fees
from the native lands or if they are exempt. If there is a stumpage fee paid to the Kodiak
Island Borough the service district should receive some of the fee.

Re: Russian River Estates
The below signed residents of Russian River Estates are requesting annexation into the
Women's Bay Road Service District. It is our understanding that the subdivision is
Borough approved and the roads should be at or above Borough code. We believe that
Middle Bay Drive as it comes into the subdivision is sub-standard and so would also
request that this issue be addressed.
