Lew Hopkins Box 233 Pasco, Washington Dear Lew: April 22, 1966 Just a line to let you know that last night at the Borough Assembly meeting, your dormitory project was discussed in a public hearing. After objections to it from the people on both sides of the property and at their request, the Assembly granted an additional hearing at which time a current petition is to. be submittedi, The petition which You submitted asked for a rezoning, and your request asked for an exception. Also, several people who had signed the petition asked that their names be withdrawn. 1 will tell Roy about this, and give him all the assistance 1 can. The matter will be on .the agenda for the next meeting on May S. Yours very truly, J. L. Stansbury JLS/sh ASSEMBLY MEETING - April 21, 1966 2 Various complaints were made that there are inequitities in the assessments. It was brought out that it is possible for errors to be made, and that possible errors should be checked out by talking to the Assessor. If an agreement cannot be reached, an appeal should be made to the Board of Adjustment. If an agreement still is not reached, an appeal may be made to the Superior Court. In summarizing, Chairman White stated that the Assembly realizes that there is a lot of dissatisfaction concerning the assessments, and that some action must be taken to resolve it. He suggested that a board be created to act in an advisory capacity both to the public and the tax assessor, which would assist him in making the assessments. This board should represent a cross-section of the property owners. He emphasized that everyone who cannot come to an agreement with the Assessor should apply for a Board of Equalization hearing. According to the law, a visit must first be paid to the Assessor. If agreement cannot be reached, then the BOE forms should be filled out. But the discussion must be held with the Assessor, not with the Chairman or the Assembly members. Those people who cannot see the Assessor during working hours may call him at the Borough Office. A comment was made that re -appraisals should be done. Mrs. Hajdu replied that the overall values would remain the same. If there are inconsistencies, they should be reported so that they may be adjusted. III Minutes of previous meeting, April 7, 1966, were not read aloud since copies were available to everyone. IV School Board minutes of April 5 and April 11 were read. Mr. Schott explained to Mr. Wright that the pension is an honorarium of one payment which is paid out of the General Fund. V COMMUNICATIONS - CORRESPONDENCE - PEOPLE TO BE HEARD A. Letter from Supt. of Schools re Special Assembly Meeting on April 28 for elementary school bid opening was read. Mr. Schott explained that if the bids are in order on that day, the contract could be awarded if the Assembly is present, thus saving time. Chairman White stated khat the Borough has been advised that the bond market is so depressed that interim financing had been suggested,instead. After brief discussion, it was decided that the bond matter would be checked into, and a decision made then about Assembly attendance at the meeting on April 28. VI PLANNING & ZONING ITEMS CC A.

Inc P.O. Box 423 Kodiak2 Alaska • Gentlemen; Although we have been engaged in the Sea Food Industry for several years, we are a new industry in the Kodiak area. •We were forced to abandon our Seldovia, Alaska plant due to the earthquake induced tidal conditions which the city now has. Recently we completed the construction of our new floating cannery, purchased land sites in the City of Kodiak, nd. a are about to finish the installation of the plant in it Is new site. With the exception, of our supervisory and administrative, staff, most of our employees shall be hired on a local basis, supplying their own housing and board arrangements. Due to '; the increasing number of sea food plants planning operations in Kodiak, there is an ever decreasing number of employeea available due mainly to their inability to locate housing. In our view, there is an imperative need for low cost ; housing units or dormitories that would be available to,: cannery"or constriction crew workers. Units available 'in' the $25.00 to $30.00 per week bracket. Without such unite to house 'incoming prospective employees, the local labor market shall be inadequate tomeet, the industry's needs.
