We recommend that the /A\ssembly consider using
a mil levy to pay for the solid waste capital costs
and that the waste collection fees be used for the
operational costs. Even though it would shift a
larger proportion of landfill and disposal costs to
the larger property owners, it would be deductible
on federal income tax returns.

Subject: RE: Assembly Work session-January 30th
Mutual Aid Agreements:
Exist between all four departments and are considered"all hazard"agreements. These agreements are due for review.
The KIB also has a"Cooperative Fire Protection Agreement"with the State of Alaska for wildland fires, part of this agreement is
the"Annual Operating Plan"that is submitted by each department annually.
We also have MOD's with PKIMC for Emergency Communications support,Hazardous Materials Decon support,and Oxygen
Supply.
Fire Protection:
Most of the areas on the road system from White Sands Beach to Marine Hill have fire protection. The one exception is the area
between the Coast Guard Base and Sargent Creek,where there is no official fire protection provided.
Fire Protection in the villages is provided by volunteers from each village with varying degrees of participation. All of the village
fire services are"exterior firefighting only"which means that they do not have the equipment or training to enter a hazardous
atmosphere such as a burning structure. All they are equipped and trained to do is to fight fires from the outside of a structure
and to provide protection to surrounding structures.
Emergency Medical Services:
All of the road system is covered by some sort of EMS service.
The Kodiak City Fire Department provides Advanced Life Support Ambulance Service for the entire road system. This is the only
ambulance service on the road system,with the exception of the Rocket Launch Facility.
The Bayside Fire Station provides Basic Life Support, First Responder Service from White Sands Beach to the Kodiak City Limits.
The Women's Bay Fire Station provides Basic Life Support, First Responder Service from Sargent Creek to Marine Hill. Women's
Bay does respond to EMS calls between the Coast Guard Base and Sargent Creek when requested.
The Coast Guard Fire Station provides Advanced Life Support, First Responder Service to the Coast Guard Base, Rezanof Drive,
from the Main Gate to Swampy Acres,Nemetz and Lake Louise housing areas,and Antone Larson Bay Road from Rezanof to the
Ski Challet. They also respond to EMS calls on Rezanof between the Main Gate and Sargent Creek when requested.
Page 30 of 66
Strategic Plan Discussion - Economic Development, Animal Con...
AGENDA ITEM #2.c.
Chiniak has limited Basic Life Support,First Responder Service provided by Chiniak EMS. This is a very small group with limited
resources and no official ties to a government entity.
The Kodiak Rocket Launch Complex provides Advanced Life Support Ambulance Service, but only during launch operations. They
have reported that they will respond to emergency in the Pasagshak Area if requested,and if it is during a launch operation
when they are staffed.
The villages have Basic Life Support, First Responder services provided by the Community Health Aids,Village Public Safety
Officers,Village Response Teams,and other volunteers. The Villages of Old Harbor,Port Lions,and Ouzinkie have either a Basic
Life Support Ambulance or Patient Transport Unit. The other villages rely on whatever transportation is available for getting
patients to the clinic or air strip for medevac.
Areas that I believe should be addressed by the KIB Strategic Plan:
Pursuing and supporting efforts of the Fire Service Districts in consolidation.
Fixing the"whole"in fire protection between the Coast Guard Base and Sargent Creek.
Encouraging the establishment of a "Emergency Services,Service District,or Council for Chiniak and providing support for
Chiniak EMS and the establishment of fire protection for the area.
The current plan is vague and does not specifically address the villages,this can be done by adding supporting and funding the
training of village first responders by the continued and increased support and funding of the Earl Smith,Jr. Memorial Fire
Training Center and Bayside Community Training Center.
Coast Guard Participation:
Input from the Coast Guard Fire Chief should always be welcomed and requested. Chief Halcomb has been involved in the
planning and implantation of the consolidated training and operational consolidation of the fire districts. However he has made
it clear in the past that he can only act in the advisory/support role and he cannot commit the resources of the Coast Guard
without getting the approval of the Coast Guard Command and in some cases the firefighters union first.

Subject: Animal control....more input
Hi again Bud. I was just on the phone with Dave Berg from the vet clinic and he has some ideas that
he would love to discuss with you. He is out of town until Feb. 6th but would love to meet with you
when he gets hack. It might prove helpful. Here is some of his input(personal input not clinic
connected or HSK connected although it is food for thought.)
1) A dog owner MUST have proof of rabies(the actual certificate) before it can be licensed.
Rabies vaccination is state law and we don't have a functional plan operating at the
moment. I believe he said that is how Anchorage does it. Then if a dog is picked up, and
there is no proof of rabies there should be a stiff fine attached which could help pay for
animals control services.Also, in regard t rabies if a dog is impounded they should have
to pay a certain amount(vet visit plus rabies vaccine) PLUS the impound fee prior to getting
their dog back. The shelter could get the vaccine done and then allow the dog to go home
after both fees were paid. Expensive perhaps but again, rabies is state law.
2) All dog license fees should be raised that would also help for Animal Control services. (If a
dog is spayed or neutered the fee should still be less than in they are intact)
3) Dave would be willing to work on some kind of Village outreach program and all that entails.
4) Stiffer fines for repeat offenders(impounds)
5) Some communities have a program to help insure animals adopted from their shelter are
spayed and neutered by working with the City(or borough)to FINE/TICKET individuals that
don't have their adopted pets spayed/neutered within the adoption contract time limit.
This would only bean issue with puppies and kittens in our community as all animals of age
that are at the shelter are fixed prior to adoption but we have an interesting time running
down some folks who have puppies and kittens to be sure they get them fixed. Threat of an
expensive fine might be something that helps. This doesn't happen too often here but it
DOES happen and we have to run them down and threaten with police support to take the
animal back. Something set in place would be a lot less messy!

Subject: Borough Animal Control
Hi Bud we talked a bit last night to brainstorm a little and below is a list of ideas that may be short or long term goals. We
also talked to the Animal Control Officers(they were at the meeting)so that was helpful I think.
1) The codes need to be revised/updated/and more specific: I am sure you already figured this out but it is a very
important part of things since the Animal Control Officers don't have the authority to take an abused or neglected
animal away from owners if the codes are nebulous. The ACO said that they are working on codes with the city right
now to give them the authority they need. I think the Animal Control officers would like to be included in the borough
meetings when they occur as they have some good ideas. Also, I am pretty sure that Barb Zimmerman (she is out of
state now)might like to help with the section on horses. The codes need to be specific enough to give them the
power. Ex: If a code states that a dog must be given shelter and water but doesn't specify that the shelter must be
insulated,the correct size for the dog to get in an turn around but not too big or drafty and that the water must not be
frozen they can't do anything. Also,we haven't followed up on this for awhile,but the Alaska State Vet did some work
on recommendations that might be good to look at when doing the codes. I am trying to find out more about that.
2) Include Animal Control officers in meetings to update codes(already stated)
3) Include horse community in meetings to update codes(already stated)
4) When doing the codes,work with City to try to bring the city and borough codes in line together where possible.(Ex.
Impound fees)
5) More support for HSK Animal Shelter to enhance/remodel facility down the road. The building has some issues. We
understand that the borough might not want to get into putting money into a facility but borough animals use that
facility too and we feel it needs a remodel. We know this is a LONG RANGE plan but would hope that down the road we
can raise money and have funding support to allow this project to take place. We haven't talked to Aimee K.about this
yet as we haven't even started the leg work on this but you did say this was a 20 year plan and I hope we can do
something wonderful in that time frame if not sooner.
6) Continue funding support of the Borough Animal Control position. This is really important if we are to move forward
and to set an example for other Alaskan communities.
7) Supprt Community Spay/neuter programs. The HSK used the Borough grant money and City grant money for
spay/neuter in the community(not at the animal shelter)and we feel this is a very positive step. We have supported
spay/neuter more each year and have seen results in fewer litters being born and in more animal adoptions from the
shelter. Along with the funds The HSK raises for spay/neuter each year,
the City and Borough grant money was instrumental in making this a very good year for supporting the community's
needs. Keep in mind we have to raise all of the funds that go into spay/neuter of shelter pets besides what we do for
community members. It is a large task.
8) Network with the villages: We aren't sure how to go about getting support to network with the villages. Each village
has its own set of animal problems and if they don't have a VPSO in the village it can be more difficult for us. Some of
these villages have a feral cat problem. Others won't allow any dogs to be brought out to the village as they have too
many roaming around. We aren't sure what agency to network with to put forth a humane program in the villages and
Page 34 of 66

AGENDA ITEM #2.c.
at the present time our shelter manager works with them individually but it is a huge task. We prefer prevention to
euthanasia and that means something needs to be in place to keep things running smoothly.
9) Look at communities that have breeding licenses and fines and how their programs work. This topic has been brought
up once or twice over the past 20 years or so but not considered. This may be the time to take a serious and thorough
look at the way this works and what our options might look like.
We are so pleased to be able to be a part of what the borough is doing and hope our comments will help. I don't know how
many meetings this will entail but it would be good for the HSK to have a representative at these meetings so we know where
the borough is going with this topic and how we might help. I also think Animal Control folks might have some good thoughts
during the process too as they are in the trenches daily and see the strengths and weaknesses of what is in place now.
Thanks Bud! Probably see you Thursday eve around 8:00 in the work session room right? . Karen

Comments and Suggestions
Please provide any comments or suggestions on topics discussed above or not discussed:
1. Why is there no community rec/work out center? Places far smaller and poorer than
Kodiak have great facilities. How are we to get/remain healthy without adequate access
to physical activity?
2. Some of these questions are pretty leading ...
3. The Borough needs to be responsive to the livability and affordability of our community.
Addressing basic needs such as pot holes being filled. Snow removed from roads. Give
services in emergencies. No fluff is needed. Everyone is tightening their belts, the
Borough should also. No bike trail to Port Lions, no bridge. Basic walking trails to get
youth to school safely and for recreation where the most people will use it. Get rid of the
curbside garbage pick up. Expand the options for recycling -glass, plastics. Pay
attention to what is happening in your schools. Make sure they are providing the best
education possible for our next generation. Don't just throw money at the problems.
Investigate-ask questions. Be ethical in planning. No "special deals". Get rid of
imminent domain. Everyone's voice matters. Make it affordable to live here, so that our
children will be able to call Kodiak their home. Thank you for the survey.
4. I'm concerned that the lack of snow and ice removal on the sidewalks in areas where
individuals need to walk to public buildings or access good and services marginalizes
indigent populations. I'm concerned that the city is not maintaining sidewalks and roads
in areas where kids need to walk to school. People can't walk with their children outside
in the winter because the sidewalks are ill maintained. When I've called the city about
why this is not being done, the office reports a shortage of staff is the cause. I'm
concerned that the city is building infrastructures without adequate plans for supporting
or staffing these infrastructures in the future. I think Kodiak needs to hire a city planner
to help evaluate the needs of the community and plan with efficacy. I would like to see a
family recreation center in order for families and children to have the opportunity to
engage in healthy activities. There is no place for families with small children to go to
commune and to let their children socialize in a pro-social manner.
5. Roll Cart service should be expanded. Has the SWAB made any recommendations to
the Assembly that has been adopted? I think they are a useless board and should be
dropped.
Page 53 of 66
Strategic Plan Introduction - Borough Governance
AGENDA ITEM #2.d.
6. Open more land to lower taxes and provide building option for residents.
7. I believe the borough has left Kodiak out to dry because it allows the city to rake all the
sales taxes into the coffers without representing the citizens of the borough.What
happened to the one government in Kodiak! I am tired of having to pay to support two
governments when I only get a dismal salary that can't afford a house let alone groceries
when I see people with 2014 trucks in the line to the food bank?
Thank you for taking the time to fill out the survey!

Exploration of Garbage Price Structure
The price structure right now gives a volume discount for garbage.
This is unheard of in this day and age.

Don't punish the people who are already acting in the community's best interest.
This is the distribution at the average price per gallon.

32 0.59 $18.88
64 0.59 $37.76
96 0.59 $56.64
This encourages behaviors that every community in America is striving for.
To offset the revenue reduction likely to occur under this scenario add a fee per roll cart.

Public dumpsters are the enemy of fair pay-as-you-throw practices.
A transfer station would do nothing to further any Borough diversion goals unless it was
manned and had a commensurate disposal pricing structure.
The money that would need to be spent on advertising the rules and pricing structure of
a transfer station could instead just be used to inform the community of the
rules that are already in place, which could funtion if they were common
knowledge.

A RESOLUTION OF THE ASSEMBLY OF THE KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
ESTABLISHING POLICY FOR A REASONABLE COURSE OF ACTION WITH
RESPECT TO ANY REQUEST FOR INFORMATION BROUGHT UNDER THE
ALASKA PUBLIC RECORDS ACT
WHEREAS, it is deemed sound public policy for citizens to be able to monitor
government activities with meetings of governing bodies open to the public and
government records open to public inspection; and
WHEREAS, in 1990 the Alaska Legislature modified the Alaska Public Records Act
to make it applicable to municipalities and recognize that public access to government
information is a fundamental right that operates to check and balance the actions of
elected and appointed officials and to maintain citizen control of government; and
WHEREAS, to protect the public's right to know, public records must be available at
nominal cost consistent with the Kodiak Island Borough fee schedule set by resolution
of the assembly; and
}
WHEREAS, it is advisable to describe those records which are not to be disclosed and
those records consist of 1) communications between any borough department,
assembly, board, commission, or committee and an attorney concerning pending or
actual litigation; 2) files maintained by the borough attorney's office concerning
pending or actual litigation, or any document prepared in the provision of legal services
or legal advice to the borough or the assembly, or any of its departments, boards,
commissions, subdivisions, officers, or employees by the borough attorney's office;
3) personnel, payroll, medical files or other files which reveal the personal, financial or
medical status of any specific individual other than gross pay and average cost of
benefits allocated in the budget except upon the specific written authorization of the
individual concerned; 4) the name, address, telephone number or other identifying
information•about complainants in actions to enforce borough ordinances; 5) records
of engineering or other technical data which if released would provide a competitive
advantage to any person or corporation engaged in similar or related activities; 6)
proprietary information which a manufacturer, consultant, or provider reasonably
requires to be kept privileged or confidential to protect the property interests of
persons providing the information or data; 7) information used for municipal
governments to engage in collective bargaining considered to be privileged or
confidential for purposes of successful collective bargaining; 8) information obtained
( by and in the custody of insurance carriers insuring the borough, and their attorneys
and agents, regarding possible and pending claims against the borough, and records

KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
RESOLUTION NO. 91-20
A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A ZONING ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURE
WHEREAS, Chapter 29.40 of the Alaska Statutes establishes the authority for planning
and describes municipal planning powers in Alaska; and requires that first
and second class boroughs provide for planning, platting and land use
regulation on an areawide basis in accordance with a comprehensive plan;
and
WHEREAS, one of the most important tools for implementing the Kodiak Island
Borough's comprehensive plan is Title 17 Zoning, of the Borough Code; and
WHEREAS, an important aspect of implementing the Borough's zoning regulations is
zoning enforcement; and
WHEREAS, the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly adopted Resolution No. 90-26 in April
of 1990 which established a Zoning Enforcement Policy; and
WHEREAS, the Kodiak Island Borough Planning and Zoning Commission has
recommended that the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly adopt the Zoning
Enforcement Procedure, dated January 1991, to implement the Zoning
Enforcement Policy;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
ASSEMBLY that the Zoning Enforcement Procedure for the Kodiak Island Borough is as
follows:
KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
ZONING ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURES
January 1991
1, ACCEPT THE COMPLAINT
A. Determine if the complaint involves a land use violation. (If not, refer the
complainant to the Building Official, Department of Environmental
Conservation, Corps of Engineers, or other appropriate agency.)
Kodiak Island Borough,Alaska Resolution No. 91-20
Page 1 of 5
B. Review the Borough Code. If there appears to be a land use violation,
assist the complainant in filling out a violation complaint form. Signed
complaint forms receive priority.
C. If the complainant declines to fill out a violation complaint form, staff should
fill out the form as completely as possible from the information provided by
the complainant. Signed complaints and alleged violations brought up at
public meetings or resulting from Planning and Zoning Commission cases
receive priority. Unsigned complaints or complaints received anonymously
by telephone are pursued on a time available basis.
D. Each violation complaint should be noted in the violation database and the
current status of the violation kept up to date. Complaints that are
determined to be invalid or are referred to another agency should also be
entered into the database with the appropriate determination.
2. INVESTIGATE THE COMPLAINT
A. Check the department property files to see if there have been previous
complaints or building activity on the property that are relevant to the
current complaint.
B. Check Assessing Department and Building Department files to see if they
contain information, permits, photos, or other data relevant to the complaint.
C. Make an on-site inspection to become familiar with the conditions on the
property, documenting with photos the alleged violations and making
personal contact, if possible, with the property owner and/or violator to
explain the complaint and violation.
D. If the violation is determined to be valid, reopen the violation file for the
property in question if one exists, or set up a violation (red-label) file if one
doesn't already exist. If the complaint is not valid and no zoning violation
exists, or if it is ultimately referred to another agency, place a memo to this
effect in the general (green-label) property file.
3. ENFORCEMENT ACTION
A. Contact the Property Owner: Personal contact (telephone/on-site) should
be made with the violator and/or property owner within seven (7) calendar
days of receiving the complaint, explaining the violation (specifying code
section) and indicating how and when it should be corrected. A letter will
be sent to the property owner, and/or any violator, within seven (7) calendar
days of contact. The seriousness of the violation and whether or not
personal contact has been made will dictate whether this letter is sent
Kodiak Island Borough,Alaska Resolution No. 91-20
Page 2 of 5
certified mail. Any violation, regardless of the degree of seriousness, in
which personal contact with the violator or property owner is not made after
three (3) documented attempts within seven calendar days will result in an
administrative decision sent by certified mail to the property owner.
1. If a violation is potentially hazardous and presents an immediate
threat to health and welfare, a stop-work order will be issued and
hand-delivered on site to whomever is engaged in the activity. A
court injunction will be sought to ensure that the activity is not
continued until the health threat is resolved and the zoning violation
abated. A copy of the stop-work order will be mailed certified to the
property owner, if different from the person to whom the order was
hand delivered on site.
2. If the violation is °non-serious" in nature (i.e. signs, small amounts
of fishing gear, mobile illegal dwelling, non-permitted home
occupations) and just beginning, as opposed to established and
getting worse, and personal contact has been made, a non-certified
warning letter will be sent setting a fifteen (15) calendar day deadline
for abatement. This letter will state that failure to meet the deadline
will result in a final administrative decision and further enforcement
action. A site inspection will be conducted to verify compliance with
the deadline.
3. If the violation is serious and established, personal contact will be
followed with a certified letter setting a compliance deadline by
administrative decision.
B. Administrative decisions: Administrative decisions will generally establish
a thirty (30) calendar day compliance deadline. For more entrenched,
longstanding violations requiring major structural alteration, large-scale
clean-up, or displacement of occupants, a sixty (60) calendar day--or
longer--deadline will generally be established, at staffs discretion. The
administrative decision will also indicate that the decision is final unless
appealed to the Planning and Zoning Commission within ten (10) days of
receipt of the letter, list the penalties specified by Code for failure to appeal
or comply, and state that further enforcement will be in the form of legal
action. Copies of the letter will go to the file, complainant, violator and/or
property owner, Planning and Zoning Commission, Borough Attorney,
appropriate lending institution and other departments as relevant.
C. Appeals: An appeal of an administrative decision to the Planning and
Zoning Commission is valid only if filed in writing with the Community
Development Department within ten (10) days of receipt of the certified
letter giving notice of the administrative decision. When an enforcement
Kodiak Island Borough,Alaska Resolution No. 91-20
Page 3 of 5
case is appealed to the Planning and Zoning Commission, a new P & Z
case file is created. An appeal stays any administrative decision until the
Commission either affirms or reverses the decision in whole or in part. If
the administrative decision is affirmed and no relief Is granted, the original
time period setting a compliance deadline is reestablished. Therefore, if a
30-day deadline was originally established to abate the zoning violation, the
30-day clock starts ticking on the date of the Planning and Zoning
Commission's affirmation of the administrative decision, unless some other
deadline is established by the Commission. A site inspection will be
scheduled to verify compliance with any deadline. Should the
Commission's affirmation or reversal be further appealed to the City Council
or Borough Assembly, this same guideline will apply., Noncompliance by a
final deadline will result in an Authorization-To-Seek-Legal-Opinion being
filled out and submitted as outlined in 4C.
4. FOLLOW UP
A. Inspect the property to ensure that the violation has been abated. If the
issue has been resolved and the violation abated, the "case will be closed"
with a memo to the file and/or a letter of acknowledgement to the property
owner and/or violator, and a copy to the complainant. The file is then
returned to the Department's general property files and the compliance date
entered into the database.
B. If the violation has not been abated but obvious progress has been made
and the property owner and/or violator has personally expressed the
intention of complying, the deadline may be extended for a time period
appropriate to the circumstances (i.e. a fisherman in the Bering Sea). This
extension, in most cases, will not exceed 20 calendar days, and should be
confirmed by phone or personal contact with the property owner and/or
violator and followed up with a note to the file. The intention, here, is to be
consistent with the philosophy underlying the Zoning Enforcement Policy of
focusing on elimination of the violation, not punishment of the violator.
C. If a site inspection on the deadline reveals that the violation continues with
no apparent effort made to correct it, and that the property owner and/or
violator has chosen to ignore the deadline and the directive to abate the
violation, a standard Authorization-To-Seek-Legal-Opinion form will be
filled out and submitted for signatures authorizing legal action.
D If; after legal action has been initiated, the property owner and/or violator
asks for additional time in order to comply with the administrative decision,
the property owner and/or violator may receive one final extension if a
"confession of judgment° offering an appropriate schedule to abate the
violation is executed.
