CITIZENS' COMMENTS
A. Agenda Items Not Scheduled For Public Hearing
Frank Pagano, Koniag Inc. president, read a statement
from the Koniag Board of Directors declaring that
they were disturbed at Assembly actions tabling and
postponing Koniag's four rezone requests when
previous rezone requests were approved. Mr. Pagano
felt there was an organized campaign to stop the
rezones, and the Board sought equal treatment. He
pointed out that the main difference in the
Ugak /Shelikof areas was that Koniag property was not
immediately surrounded by refuge as other rezone
requests not targeted to stop were. He urged the
Assembly to act in the best interest of all
taxpayers. He explained that Koniag tried to comply
with existing code. He remembered that Koniag
compromised by reducing two areas to be rezoned to
ten acres.
Marsha Rom, Alaska Legal Services representative,
informed the Assembly that federal funds were
received in the past. She appreciated funding from
the Borough and noted that the funds remained in
Kodiak.

PUBLIC HEARING PUBLIC HEARING
All ordinances and resolutions presented at this
meeting were introduced by title only and copies made
available to the public.
Presiding Officer McFarland opened the public hearing
on Ordinances No. 93 -25, No. 92 -10C, No. 93 -36,
No. 93 -37, No. 93 -38, No. 93 -39, No. 93 -40,
No. 93 -41, No. 93 -42, No. 93 -43, No. 93 -44,
No. 93 -45 and No. 93 -46.
Presiding Officer McFarland asked for a staff report
on items under public hearing.
Mayor Selby spoke to Ordinance No. 92 -10C that was
the final budget amendment for fiscal year 1993. He
noted that additional revenues of $109,000 received
during the year were added to the budget and in turn
placed in expenditures to cover travel, lobbyist,
legal services, overtime, temporary help and audit
expenses. Additionally, funds were placed under
health and sanitation for a grant to the Kodiak
Council on Alcoholism.
He explained that Ordinance No. 93 -36 corrected
internal inconsistencies in the borough code.
Mayor Selby deferred to Linda Freed, Community
Development Department director, to speak to the
remaining ordinances scheduled for public hearing.
Director Freed stated that Ordinance No. 93 -37
adopted the Urban Islands Comprehensive Plan. She
referred to maps in the chambers and stated the Plan
was prepared as a result of a controversial Woody
Island rezone issue. She reported that two public
hearings were conducted and public response favored
the Plan. She said staff and the Planning and Zoning
C recommended adoption of the Plan as a
planning tool and guideline for development of the
urban islands.
Director Freed spoke to the ten rural development
rezone ordinances and indicated the general proximity
of each parcel on a map in the chambers. She
explained that wildlife habitat zoning was less
Regular Assembly Meeting
June 17, 1993
Volume XVI
Page 235
Regular Assembly Meeting
June 17, 1993
restrictive than conservation zoning and offered less
environmental /resource protection than rural
development zoning. She reported that the Coastal
Management Plan was used as a guideline by the
Planning and Zoning Commission and all rezones were
within rural development zoning categories or
development with restrictions zoning categories.
Presiding Officer McFarland called for public
comments.
Ron Doubt, Ordinance No. 93 -45 rezone applicant, was
confused at the inconsistency of Planning and Zoning
Commission case numbers and ordinance numbers. He
was available to answer questions.
Denise May, Ordinance No. 93 -41 rezone applicant, was
concerned that four Koniag rezone requests were
postponed. She contended that property owners were
responsible and that rural development zoning allowed
compliance with borough code.
Tom Healey, Ordinance No. 93 -38 rezone applicant,
echoed the comments of Mr. Doubt. He was available
to answer questions and asked the Assembly to look
carefully at the rezone process.
Thomas Goldston, Kodiak Council on Alcoholism (KCA)
executive director, thanked the Assembly for
supporting nonprofit organizations.
Glen Eaton, Ordinance No. 93 -40 rezone applicant,
represented Zachar Bay Lodge, a family owned
commercial lodge on the site for 22 years, that was
not in compliance unless rezoned rural development.
He presented pictures of the lodge to the Assembly.
Bob Pfutzenreuter cautioned the Assembly on passing
rezones until all proper safeguards were in place.
He was of the opinion that the mention of a
moratorium precipitated the requests for rezone. He
was concerned with density and recommended a
temporary suspension of rural development rezones
until all plans and codes were in place.
Tom Healey directed the Assembly's attention to the
fact that Shearwater was not in a natural wildlife
refuge. He argued that proper safeguards were in
place because building permits and compliance with
borough regulations were required. He said federal
agencies regulated environmental and resource
conservation.

Lani Carlsen, Ordinance No. 93 -39 rezone applicant,
presented the history and plan's for Carlsen Point.
She wanted a 18 -year commercial fish site that would
custom process and smoke fish on property that was
currently undeveloped. She added that the property
was surrounded by family members who encouraged their
endeavors.
Ron Doubt drew attention to the fact that his
property was zoned conservation, not wildlife
habitat, and the distinction between the two.
Presiding Officer McFarland closed the public hearing
and reconvened the regular meeting.
A. Ordinance No. 93 -25 Rezoning Tract A -1, U.S. ORDINANCE
Survey 3879, Consisting of 10.2 Acres, From NO. 93 -25
C -- Conservation To RD- -Rural Development. (Near
Village Islands on the West Side of Uganik Bay)
Presented for consideration was Ordinance No. 93 -25
which, if adopted, rezoned land consistent with the
type of development that private land owners want to
develop in remote areas of Kodiak Island.
AUSTERMAN, moved to adopt
seconded by MONROE Ordinance No. 93 -25.
Assemblymember Austerman spoke generally to rural
development zoning. He believed that economic
resources justified development. He reflected on the
fact that because the Assembly created the rural
development zoning district, people had right to
request a rezone. He was concerned that four rezone
requests postponed at the June 3, 1993 regular
meeting set a precedent to postpone future requests.
Assemblymember Milligan intended to review all rural
development rezone requests on an individual basis.
He remembered that many wanted the line drawn at
Karluk.
Assemblymember Monroe considered each request
separately although impatient to receive a draft of
the coastal management plan and how to include in the
comprehensive plan.
Assemblymember Fitzjearl considered each request
separately to ensure fairness for all applicants.
She spoke to Ordinance No. 93 -25 with concern that
lodge owners trespassed on private property.
Assemblymember Gould said the positive outcome of the
process was getting the new comprehensive plan in

Page 237
place. He had not heard one complaint about monies
being put into studies. He would continue to support
postponement of decisions until the study was done
and incorporated into the comprehensive plan. He was
pleased with the Urban Islands Comprehensive Plan.
Presiding Officer McFarland explained that a rezone
was a change of the policy in the best interest of
the public. The Assembly had the authority to adopt,
deny, or postpone a rezone request. He added that
although property owners had no automatic right to a
rezone, they had a right to apply. He felt that the
mechanical and technical aspect of rezones were a
responsibility of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Assemblymember Austerman agreed that without a plan,
the Planning and Zoning Commission had no guidelines
but that they had the knowledge to make rational
decisions. He was of the opinion that postponing
some was discriminatory and wrong.
AUSTERMAN, moved to postpone
seconded by FITZJEARL Ordinance No. 93 -25
until completion of the
Jon Isaacs &
Associates' study of
the Kodiak Island
Borough Coastal
Management Plan and its
incorporation in to the

In response to Assemblymember Fitzjearl's concerns
regarding Ordinance No. 93 -25, Director Freed
reported that there was a platted access across the
adjacent private property.

FITZJEARL, moved to adopt
seconded by AUSTERMAN Ordinance No. 93 -37.
Mayor Selby explained the need for the plan was
brought about by a controversial zoning case on Woody
Island. He noted that the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended approval.
Assemblymember Gould felt that completion of a
similar plan was necessary prior to approval of
future rural development rezone requests. He
appreciated the efforts of staff and the Planning and
Zoning Commission.

dwelling accommodating a maximum of five unrelated
people. She said additional structures were

efforts of Mayor Selby, staff, and the Assembly to
ascertain the disbursement criteria for nonprofit

of how funds were disbursed. He felt limited future

library, Chamber of Commerce and Convention and

responded to questions from the Assembly. He said
that Catholic Social Services removed funding after
the building was completed. He understood there was
a 20 -year agreement to manage the shelter and fund
raisers were conducted regularly. He explained that

encouraged and accepted.

there was no negative impact to the neighborhood. He
complimented Mr. Hawver.
