SUBJECT: Planning and Zoning Commission Item for the February 7, 1985 Assembly Meeting RE: CASE 84 -135. Request for a variance from Section 17.33.060 (Build- ing Height Limit), a conditional use permit in accordance with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) and a request for a lease of Borough land in accordance with Section 18.040.020(A) to permit a 150 foot high radio transmitter in the PL- Public Use Lands District. A portion of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital Subdivision. Located on Borough property between East Elementary School and the Kodiak Island Hospital. BACKGROUND Please be advised that the Planning and Zoning Commission at their January 16, 1985 regular meeting conducted an advertised and noticed public hearing on the above - referenced case and passed a resolution recommending that the Borough Assembly approve a lease for a.portion of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital Subdivi- sion, owned by the Kodiak Island Borough. ' RECOMMENDATION The Kodiak Island Borough Planning and Zoning Commission approved the request for a variance from Section 17.33.060 (Building Height) of the Borough code, and a conditional use permit in accordance with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) of the Borough code, to permit a structure that is 100 feet greater than the maximum building height limit on PL- Public Use Lands. In addition, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommends that the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly offer for lease a 9,742.5 square foot portion of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital Subdivision as a site for a radio tower for five years with an option for a five -year renewal subject to the following conditions: 1. review by the Planning and Zoning Commission of a site development plan, and final tower design, height, and building materials; 2. that the tower be constructed to accommodate other antennas; 3. security fences or other safety devices be placed around the tower and where guy wires are anchored to the ground; and 4. approval of a license by the Federal Communications Commission is required prior to the lease being executed; if the lease is not executed within a year, it shall be reviewed again by the Planning and Zoning Commission prior to execution. In recommending approval of this lease the Commission commented that: 1. there was no objection from the aviation community to a tower in this location; 2. the Commission did not feel that the leasing of this property would interfere with long -range plans being prepared by the hospital; and that the proposed time frame for this lease period is a maximum of six years (1 year to meet the lease conditions and a 5 -year lease). The Commission did not believe the hospital would need this property within the next six years. If after this time the hospital did require the property, the lease should not be renewed.

KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH ATTEST: By,c -mac Community D pment Director , 1985 Planning and Zo on Chairman the lease but that any lease ' . ed should require strict accountability and be subject(ieviev on a regular basin. The resolution presented seems to .. r WBCC's concerns. RANDY COVEY, Program Coordinator for Northern Lights Riding for the Handicapped (NLRH), indicated the only problem NLRH would have with the resolution presented would be the one year term and asked that the tera.be changed to five years with numbers 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the proposed resolution remaining unaltered. Mr. Covey indicated that NLRH met on January 15, 1985, elected officers for the Board of Directors, and is actively pursuing its tax - exempt status from the IRS. COMMISSIONER HILL asked Mr. Covey if any of the Board of Directors were present this evening. Mr. Covey replied that Joe Bradman is present. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT questioned Mr. Covey concerning the necessity of having a five year term of lease to secure state funding. Mr. Covey explained that permanent structures would be required and that NLRH would need a place to board the horses. DAN MACIAK indicated that in his opinion NLRH has no program and that NLRH has had more than sufficient time to establish a program and is opposed to any lease to NLRH. RANDY COVEY indicated that there was a program and children did ride during the past year. Public Hearing Closed. Regular Session Opened: COMMISSIONER HILL. indicated that he would not be opposed to the one year term of lease because.of the needs of the handicapped community. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT as a father of a handicapped child would like to see programs available to handicapped children and thinks the resolution as drafted provides the opportunity to teat the .sincerity, and the ability of NLRH to develop a program that provides these services. COMMISSIONER JAMES MOVED TO APPROVE the resolution as presented by the Community Development Department recommending the Assembly enter into an agreement to lease a portion of Lot 1, U.S. Survey .2539. The motion was seconded and CARRIED by unanimous roll call .vote. B) CASE 84 -135.

V APPEARANCE REQUESTS AND AUDIENCE COMMENTS There were no Appearance Requests nor Audience Comments. VI PUBLIC RFARTNGS A) CASE 84 -134. Request for a twenty -five year lease of 11.2 'acres of Borough property legally described as a portion of Lot 1, U.S. Survey 2539, known as Nixon's. Ranch in accordance with Section 18.40.020(B) of the Borough Code. (Northern Lights Riding for the Handicapped) LINDA FREED indicated additional handouts related to this case: a letter from Jack Cripe of the Kodiak Rodeo Association. a. letter from Jim Cobis, and a copy of a proposed resolution. Regular Session Closed. Public Hearing Opened: JANE NUTTALL, a spokesperson for the Association of Retarded Citizens of Kodiak (ARCK), stated that ABCK supports the concept of a horseback riding program for the handicapped and the use of Borough land for that purpose. but requested the Planning and Zoning Commission be cautious in granting this lease due to the difficulties that Northern Lights Riding for the Handicapped has encountered in organizing and providing a regular program - schedule. ARCK recommended this lease be granted for a period of one year and that a careful evaluation be done after that period to determine renewal. MARY MATHES, Chairperson of the Women's Bay Community Council (WBCC), indicated that WBCC feels that the request would be an appropriate use of this property and that WBCC voted to voice non - objection to far away the hospital is from( site. Mr. Glynn indicated several hundred feet and well`_sw the horizontal plane of the transmitting antenna that he is intending to put on the tower. COMMISSIONER GREGG asked if the FCC license is contingent on the lease. Mr. Glynn indicated that it was not but that he needed a site for an application for a construction permit. COMMISSIONER GREGG indicated that the hospital would have a master plan drawn . up by July or August of 1985 that would outline the hospital's use of the property through the end of the century and if Mr. Glynn's plans could proceed with an alternative site. Mr. Glynn indicated that his alternative would be a very poor second and prefers to use this particular site. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT asked if at the end of the five -year lease the tower might be disassembled. Mr. Glynn indicated that he hoped not but that there was that possibility. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT asked if Mr. Glynn would go ahead with the investment for the tower with that condition. Mr. Glynn indicated he would. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT asked if the hospital's master plan would be completed by July. LINDA FREED indicated that was the hospital's intent as stated in their letter. COMMISSIONER KNIGHT indicated that even with the master plan he doubted a helicopter pad would be constructed in three years and asked if the hospital had a timeframe or a definite goal. LINDA FREED indicated that in terms of what the Hospital Advisory Board has provided, "no," but that at a meeting in two weeks time the Borough Assembly will be talking with the City of Kodiak about a site for a helicopter pad that is not on the hospital property. Whether the Hospital Advisory Board is involved in those discussions, Ms. Freed did not know; it may be that two different agencies are looking at two different sites. Public Hearing Closed. Regular Session Opened: COMMISSIONER HILL indicated that he saw no interference between the proposed helicopter pad and the radio antenna. COMMISSIONER PATTERSON concurred with Mr. Hill and felt that if the hospital needed the land at the end of the five year period the lease could be either reviewed or renegotiated at that time. , COMMISSIONER GREGG stated that he tended to agree and that five years was a reasonable period of time. COMMISSIONER RENNELL asked staff if this lease had been turned down by the Borough Assembly. LINDA FREED indicated that a letter of request went to the Borough Assembly, it was approved at one meeting and it was rejected at the next. In the interim staff had indicated to Mr. Glynn that there were some Planning and Zoning approvals that he would need to get prior to the Assembly's accepting the lease. Mr. Glynn chose to continue with the Planning and Zoning Commission process. COMMISSIONER RENNELL asked what will happen if this is passed. LINDA FREED indicated, that this will be forwarded to the Borough Assembly with the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation attached. COMMISSIONER RENNELL asked if the Borough Assembly 'would then decide to reconsider or reject the resolution. LINDA FREED indicated that the Borough Assembly would then have a Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation in addition to the request letter from Mr. Glynn and the other information provided by the Borough Manager at the Assembly's request. COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO APPROVE A VARIANCE from Section 17.33.060 (Building Height Limit), a conditional use permit in accordance with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) and a request for a lease of Borough land in accordance with Section 18.040.020(A) to permit a 150 foot high radio transmitter in the PL- Public Use Lands District. The motion was seconded and CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote. COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO APPROVE A RESOLUTION recommending the Borough Assembly lease a portion of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital Subdivision as proposed by staff. The motion was seconded. P S Z Regular Meeting -3- January 16. 1984 Discussion followed concerning ,term of the lease. COMMISSIONER PATTERSON MOVED TO AMEND THE MOTION RESOLUTION to include a statement that if the lease is not executed within one year it shall be reviewed again by the Planning and Zoning Commission prior to execution. The motion was seconded and CARRIED by•unanimous roll call vote. COMMISSIONER GREGG called for a roll call vote on the main motion as amended. The motion CARRIED by unanimous roll call vote. FINDINGS OF FACT were delineated as follows: 1. The Commission does not feel that this use will interfere with the long -range planning of the hospital; 2. The term of the lease is for a five -year period but that a commitment of six years would not interfere with the hospital's long range planning. The lease is subject to review at the end of the five -year period; and 3. There was no objection voiced by the aviation community. ,COMMISSIONER HILL MOVED TO ADOPT THE FINDING OF FACTS. The 'motion-was seconded-and CARRIED by-unanimous-voice -vote. C) CASE 84 -136. Request for a variance from Section 17.19.040(A)(Front Yards) to permit the construction of a single - family home that encroaches 19 feet into the required 25 foot front yard setback. Lot 16, Block 19, Kodiak Townsite Alaska Subdivision. LINDA FREED indicated additional information: a public hearing notice from Ruth Hansen; and a correction with a site plan from the staff (the encroachment is only 6 feet, but due to a mathematical error on the site plan, the variance ought to be granted for 7 feet). Regular Session Closed. Public Hearing Opened: KATHRYN KINNEAR indicated she did not necessarily object to the variance for the front setback requirement but that she did object to the approach taken in this matter concerning the road. Ms. Kinnear also expressed concern about the density of this area and development of this portion of the hill. COMMISSIONER GREGG suggested Ms. Kinnear talk to the City of Kodiak and Mr. Thompson concerning the road. MIKE ARNDT, general contractor for Mr. Thompson, indicated that the road project was not completed at this time but that all measures were taken to work with the people affected in the neighborhood and that in putting the road through the area all equipment, etc., remained within the boundaries of the easement granted by the City of Kodiak. JIM RIPPEY, general contractor for Mr. Thompson, indicated that Mr. Thompson wants room for one car to get to his lot and a turn- around area. The excavation done has been taken down to bedrock and there ought to be no sloughage. Public Hearing Closed. Regular Session Opened: COMMISSIONER PATTERSON asked what variance was granted to the Kinnears on their setback. Mr. Rippey indicated it was 17 feet in 1978. COMMISSIONER PATTERSON indicated that he had been to the site after the recent heavy rains and that he did not notice any sloughage problems and that the 7 foot setback seemed reasonable for the area. COMMISSIONER RENNELL agreed with Mr. Patterson. P & Z Regular Meeting -4- January 16, 1984 r Kodiak Island Hospital /Tel-) — 1915 East Rezanof Drive Kodiak, Alaska 99615 January 15, 1985 Planning & Zoning Commission Kodiak Island Borough 710 Mill Bay Road Kodiak, Alaska 99615 1 J 151F /776, JAN 1985 EDE LE OE Subject: Information Related to a Variance Request (1■To. 84-135) Submitted by William J. Glynn Gentlemen: I appreciate having an opportunity to express some concerns about the variance request. Kodiak Island Hospital and Advisory Board have same concerns over the Planning and Zoning Commission acting positively in reference to this request. The reasons for concern are as follows: 1. Kodiak Island Borough has recently entered into an arrangement with an architectural firm, Mills, John and Rigdon, Who will be doing a facilities master plan and schematic designs related to Kodiak Island Hospital. This firm will be entertaining and studying the needed health care facilities for Kodiak Island Hospital for the present and into the future ten or fifteen years for Kodiak Island. 2. This facility master plan will potentially deal with two main concepts. The first conceptHAould be to remodel the existing hospital facility to meet the health care needs of today and tomorrow. The second concepL could conceivable entertain the fact that a new hospital facility would need to be built and located in the proximity of the present hospital setting. This would create a concern from the Hospital Advisory Board standpoint of the utilization of space in placing a radio tower adjacent to the hospital setting. 3. As in the attached communication, we have expressed same concerns over placing a tower in the close proximity of a hospital for the stated reasons. At the same time it would not seem to be prudent judgement on the part of the Planning & Zoning Commission to act upon this request now. Please take into consideration that between now and August of 1985 a facilities master plan will be completed and action taken by the Kodiak Island Borough related to that master plan. Leased by Lutheran Hospitals & Homes Society Planning and Zoning Commission January 15, 1985 Page 2 In light of this it would not seem appropriate that action be taken at this time until the results of that study are reviewed and action taken. It could be that the space allocated for the radio tower would directly interfere with the land utilization and the health care needs of Kodiak Island residents. If the Planning and Zoning CoMmission would have further questions related to any of the above statements or concerns, I would be happy to provide additional information or input.

Request for a variance from Section 17.33.060 (Building Height Limit), request for a conditional use permit in accordance with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) and a request for a lease of Borough land in accordance with Section 18.40.020(A) to permit a 150-foot-high radio transmitter in the PL-Public Use Lands district. A portion of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital Subdivision. Located on Borough property between East Elementary School and the Kodiak Island Hospital. (William J. Glynn) Nine public hearing notices were mailed on January 3, 1985. 1. Applicant: William J. Glynn, P.O. Box 2615, Kodiak, AK 99615. 2. Land Owner: Kodiak Island Borough, 710 Mill Bay Road, Kodiak, AK 99615. 3. Request: A variance from Section 17.33.060 (Building Height Limit), request for a conditional use permit in accordance with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) and a request for a lease of Borough Land in accordance with Section 18.40.020(A) to permit a 150-foot-high radio transmitter in the PL-Public Use Lands district. 4. Purpose: To lease Borough land o locate a radio transmitter for a locally owned and operated commercial radio station. 5. Existing Zoning: PL-Public Use Lands. 6. Zoning History: The 1968 Comprehensive Plan indicates the zoning of this lot as "Public and Semi-Public" lands and "Residential-Unclassified." Though this lot had dual zoning, Ordinance 83-30-0 rezoned Lot 2 from Service/Recreational to PL-Public Lands. 7. Location: No physical address assigned.

Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan identifies this lot for Hospital and School Reserve. 12. Applicable Regulations: Chapter 18.40 (Leasing of Real Property or Interest Therein), Section 18.40.020(A) (Negotiated Leases), states: "The assembly may approve by resolution the issuance of a negotiated lease for a period not to exceed five years if the annual rental value of the property is five hundred dollars or less and no competitive interest for the property is apparent." COMMENTS: The applicant is proposing to erect a radio transmitter in the corner of Lot 2, Hospital Subdivision, for use as a private FM radio station. Including guy wires supporting the tower, the transmitter will utilize 9,742.5 square feet of a lot that contains 8.69 acres (378,536.4 square feet). A review of this request should consider two aspects: A. The Borough land lease policies; and B. the appropriateness of the request. A. Land Lease Policies of the Borough Borough land lease policy is found in Chapter 18 of Borough code, specifically Sections 18.20 and 18.40. Though the code discusses the procedure of leasing land, it does not offer any real policy direction. The Borough has not offered any land for lease lately, preferring not to be in the leasing business. One thought is that the land the Borough has title to should either be utilized, reserved for specific uses, or disposed of. Because of this philosophy, very little Borough land has been leased, although the Borough is a very large landholder on the island and there have been numerous requests. Other reasons for this are varied, but a major explanation is that Borough land has not been identified, inventoried, catalogued, or classified, nor has the Borough assessed its own needs. Because of this situation, little land has been leased or sold. In fact, many of the existing leases were originally land leased and administered by the State prior to being selected by the Borough. Case 84-135 -2- January 8, 1985 The leasing of Borough land is appropriate when it benefits the public. Borough land is land owned by all Kodiak Island residents, and the leasing or disposal of Borough property should be done so in the public interest. Physical limitations and scarceness of resources is another justification of leasing Borough land. Good examples of this are the leasing of gravel in Bell's Flats and the leasing of land adjacent to a salmon stream on Shuyak Island for a fish hatchery. The leasing of land now, prior to the eventual long-range use of the land by the Borough, may be appropriate if the use will not hinder any final development plan. B. Appropriateness of the Request Proper siting of transmission towers, especially for FM radio, are limited to high ground to allow unobstructed line-of-site signaling and away from hillsides to prevent a "rebounding" of the signal. Accessibility for maintenance, semi-isolation for safety, and aesthetics also should be considered. Lot 2, Block 1, of the Hospital Subdivision has all the characteristics not only for this tower but for all towers. Ownership of the parcel not withstanding and strictly from a land use perspective, this area is an appropriate location for the placing of radio transmitting towers. C. Analysis The use of this area as a site for a radio tower for a single commercial radio station may not be as appropriate as a location to accommodate all transmission or receiving towers. Tower locations should be limited to a specific location for safety concerns--ground and air safety. A single location is more beneficial than the scattering of towers all around town. One tower can also house from two to four antennas depending on size of the antenna. In this age of growing communication needs, radio tower space may be at a premium. D. Code Requirements Because the annual rental value of the property in question exceeds five hundred dollars, Borough code Section 18.40.020 (Negotiated Leases) requires that the land lease must be competitive. Code Section 18.20.030 also states each disposal of Borough land is subject to review by the Planning Commission before submission to the assembly. The Commission by resolution shall make a recommendation to the assembly regarding the proposed land disposal. VARIANCE: A variance from Height Requirements is part of this request. In order for a variance to be granted, all of the following conditions must be satisfied: Case 84-135 -3- January 8, 1985 1. Exceptional physical circumstances or conditions applicable to the property or intended use of development, which generally do not apply to other properties in the same land use district. Because of the line -of -site nature of radio signals or the need to reach more of an audience, requiring tall towers, and because the trees in the subdivision are, in some cases, over one hundred feet, the 50 -foot building height requirement in the PL- Public Land District is not practical in this case. The property is also vacant, isolated from residences, and not scheduled for development. 2. Strict application of the zoning ordinances would result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships. Strict application of the building code would not allow a radio tower to be erected on this site because of the need to be higher than the fifty -foot requirement. 3. The granting of the variance will not result in material damages or prejudice to other properties in the vicinity nor be detrimental to the public's health, safety, and welfare. The property is vacant, isolated, and sits higher than most of the rest of the city. It will not prejudice other properties in the vicinity, and should have minimal aesthetic impact. 4. The granting of the variance will not be contrary to the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The use of this site for towers and antennas is in the public interest. Concentrating antennas in a single location decreases visual clutter and increases safety for air traffic and safety from vandalism. 5. That actions of the applicant did not cause special conditions or financial hardship from which relief is being sought by the variance. The actions of the applicant did not create special conditions from which relief is being sought. The parcel of land requested for lease has special physical attributes as a tower site. 6. That the granting of the variance will not permit a prohibited land use in the district involved. Radio transmitters are a conditional use in the PL- Public Use Lands District. CONDITIONAL USE: The purpose of a conditional use permit is to allow a request to come before the Commission for review for compatibility with surrounding uses. Because of other aspects of this case requiring Commission input, an overall review is being done. Case 84 -135 -4- January 8, 1985 • 4 RECOMMENDATION: It is staff's opinion that this request for a land lease be approved for five years with an option to renew for five additional years because of the appropriateness of the site and because in staff's opinion this request meets the requirements of granting a variance and conditional use permit. The following are conditions of approval of this request: 1. Prior to installation of the tower, the Commission review the tower for site development, design, height, and building materials; 2. that the tower be constructed to accommodate other antennas; 3. security fences or other safety devices around the tower base and where the guy wires are anchored in the ground be required; and 4. execution of the lease be subject to approval of an FM licence by the Federal Communications Commission. APPROPRIATE MOTION: Should the Commission agree with the staff's analysis, two motions are specified below: 1) "Move to approve a variance from Section 17.33.060 (Building Height Limit), and a conditional use permit in accordance with Section 17.33.030 (Conditional Uses) of Borough code to permit a structure that is 100 feet greater than the required building height limit on PL-Public Use Lands," and 2) "move to approve a resolution to the Borough assembly for lease of Lot 2, Block 1, Hospital Subdivision."

Notary Public in and for Alaska ' My Commission Expires: Land Lease Page 3 January 3, 1985 WYCRANDUM TO: BOROUGH ASSEMBLY FROM: KODIAK ISLAND HOSPITAL ADVISORY BOARD SUBJECT: LEASING OF LAND FOR RADIO TOWER ON KODIAK ISLAND HOSPITAL PROPERTY During their regular meeting on January 2, 1935, Kodiak Island Hospital Adivsory Board spent time discussing the proth anl cons of the Borough leasing land for a radio tower adjacent to the hospital setting. It is the position of the Hospital Board that further consideration needs to be given to this by the Borough Assembly with major concern about the following: 1. The Hospital Advisory Board is concerned that placing a radio tower in the vicinity of the hospital property could potentially interfere with our communication systems. As you know, ambulance services and the hospital depend greatly upon pagers, radio systems and major electronic equipment that could potentially-be influenced by having a radio tower in the vicinity resulting in problems with frequency related matters. 2. Kodiak Island Hospital Board feels the placing of a high tower, even though it is properly lighted, in the vicinity of the hospital could adversely affect the ability of the hospital to have a helicopter landing site adjacent to the hospital in the future. As you know, the Hospital Board has been working recently with the Coast Guard and the City studying the feasibility of building a helicopter pad to serve the health care needs of the people around Kodiak Island. It is a major concern of the Coast Guard Station that any radio tower in the vicinity of a landing area creates a major problem in adverse weather conditions. As you know, many times when we are depending on a helicopter to land an accident victim it is during times of adverse weather conditions. 3. The Hospital Advisory Board also feels the architectural firm and planners that will be hired during the month of January to take a look at the hospital property and the long term needs of the Kodiak Island Hospital should be kept in mind. Between now and July a complete study will be made about howEodiak Island Hospital might be remodeled or rebuilt and serve the health care needs of Kodiak Island residents for the years to come. It appears the Borough Assembly taking this action now may be premature in reference to the results of the study that will be completed and a decision made on these issues by July of 1985. Kodiak Island Borough Assembly January 3, 1985 Page 2 With these particular items in mind it is the position of the Kodiak Island.HoSpital Advisory Board that the Borough Assembly should consider delaying official action on granting this lease request until such time as a more detailed look can be given to all the aspects of placing a radio tower-in close proximity to your community hospital. Kodiak Hospital Advisory Board appreciates the opportunity to provide input to the Borough Assembly on this matter and will be happy to work with you in any way we can to resolve any .conflicts related to this topic.

Selby, Borough Manager RE: Radio Station Land Lease Per your request I contacted Ralph Wright of Flirite, Inc. and asked if he saw any conflict with airspace use between airplanes and the radio tower located near the hospital. Ralph felt that few airplanes would be flying in that area in the normal course of flights and he indicated that a beacon at the top of the tower/antenna should be sufficient. I also contacted Jim Gingerich, administrator of the Kodiak Island Hospital, to determine if the hospital could think of any possible conflict. Jim indicated that the only concern he could think of was the impact of a radio tower that close if a helicopter pad were ever added to the hospital. He would discuss it with the Hospital Advisory Board at their meeting the evening of December 5, 1984. mdd Kodiak Island Borough MEMORANDUM DATE: December 6, 1984 TO: Jerome Selby Borough.

Glynn, Jr.) and its request for authorization for another FM radio station in Kodiak. At its regular meeting last night, the Board of Directors of Kodiak Public Broadcasting (KMXT -FM) directed that a copy of our comments in this matter be made available to you because of Mr. Glynn's statements in his request to the Borough that express the sentiment that, at present, Kodiak has no local radio station. We desire that the record be set straight, and that while the Borough may have reason to approve Mr. Glynn's request for a lease of public lands for his private enterprise, however, one of them should not be to serve the community be- cause no local radio station currently exists. We would appreciate having this matter mentioned to the Borough Assembly at the appropriate time. We are not objecting to Mr. Glynn's request, that is between he and the Borough. We do, however, desire that all members of the Assembly be reminded that, indeed, Kodiak does have a local radio station in KMXT. Thank you. Sincerely a id W.

Tjelby: (Do 71ease accet this letter as follow 11-1-: to our conversation of last weeL. fs 7 stated, while in your office, r.,)- intention is to build another ratlio station. At the present tite Hodiah does not have a localy owned and orersted station. 1 Ono of the first rer-uirments for good signal coverage is a transmitter sit that is centray located in the co=unity to be served and hisrh o-1;h to 'see' over rsjor obstructions(hills, buildings, etc.). The site 1St also be far enough away from cr,ountains that multipath(or 1-lostinz.:does -.lot becce a problem. C.ne of the better sites in Lodiak is at the north end of the ..an4c4le a2-rport. It meets the elevation and obstruction re,:airements as well as bein.: c,,r_trrl]ry located. 77-Pr better, it already has a tower. he City of •odiak is willing to lease the site for broadcast use. Also, :ol cn drive right to it. he p7-oblem I've run into is the joint City/Iorol7gh c7evelo7,11ent of the area. At present the plans call for a 100 ft. wide right of way right throu7h the arc..... rle tower itself is clear but two of the guy wires will be in the ri:Eht of way. one will fall about half way into the r.o.w. The other about 20ft. short of the center line. Jt would seem that this would leave half(50ft) of the right of way 0 ge 2 for the proposed 36ft wide paved strip. :.owever, if this is still a problem the tower guy anchors could be :oved in closer to the tower base—say 20ft—giving more room for pavinIT, and utilities. All costs of relocating the tower L;ay anchors will, of coarse, be paid by me. he above proposal would allow the road to be without spendIng any additional monies, allow the City to lease the land under the-tower, and preserve what is, T. 7_:elieve, the oldest tower in Kodiak. If, for any reason, the tower must be :lovedthen I will have to =he other arrangments. The 11.1.2. hospital property would be my first alternate.
