The second request Mr. Van Wieringen presented was the authori-
zation to purchase office furniture for the new modular unit to
be split between the two vendors on the basis of best congregate
cost between Yukon Office Supply and Ardinger's Furniture.
Mr. Murray moved to approve the acquisition of the furniture for
the modular unit in the amount not to exceed $9,000 to Ardinger's
and $4,000 to Yukon Office Supply. Seconded by Mr. White. Motion
carried 6-1 with Mr. Anderson casting the NO vote.
2. Mr. Hepburn from the Personnel Advisory Board was present if
the Assembly had any questions.
3. Mr. Knight from the P &Z Commission was also present.
4. Mr. Wilton White from the Hospital Advisory Board reiterated the
list of requests that were presented to the Assembly at the noon
work session.
5. Dan Maciak, chairman for the Gravel Task Force, reported that
the committee could not really come to any compromise situation
after six meetings. Therefore, the committee decided to write
position papers in which each outlines the pros & cons given
to that position.
6. Scott Arndt representing Fire & Service District #1 regarding
Res. 84-47-R. We basically feel that the timing is drastically
wrong. We would like to see the Res. 84-47-R not be removed
from the table. Also regarding Res. 84-46-R the fire district
is in the midst of becoming fully equipped and trained. The
Fire District also feels that the timing is not right for this
and requested that this resolution also not be removed from the
table.
Another issue that is on the agenda that I would like to speak
to you about, as a citizen, is Res. 84-64-R. As a manager form
of government, it is the manager's job to present the informa-
tion accurately to everybody. When the mayor is in there, the
mayor is voted in by the people and cannot be removed other than
by recall. If the manager is not doing his job, he can be re-
placed immediately.
B. Letter re: "Hire a Vet" month
Mayor Selby read the Executive Proclamation into the record
proclaiming June 1984 "Hire a Vet" month.
C. Letter re: Village Grant Projects
Mr. Anderson moved to grant $50,000 to each of the six villages for
a total amount of $300,000. Seconded by Ms. Barker. Motion
carried 6-1 with Mr. Wakefield casting the NO vote.
D. Proclamation: National Safe Boating Week
Mayor Selby read the proclamation into the record designating the
week beginning June 3, 1984 as National Safe Boating Week.
*** BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
A. Scott Arndt - P & Z Commission's Decision re: Extraction &
removal of sand and/or gravel and et cetera. (Res. No. 84-63-R)
Mayor Selby recessed the regular meeting and reconvened as the
Board of Adjustment.
Mr. Knight:(presented the P & Z Commission's findings)
The issue regarding the extraction of rock in areas other than
industrial zones was discussed by the P & Z Commission after Staff
had made a determination that there were several complaints
issued in regards to some lots being developed out in the Monashka
Bay area. After the findings, an administrative decision was made
by Staff that since one of the parties involved actually had a
building permit and the other party was advised to get one, that
they could continue developing their sites. Then the Commission
did vote unanimously to reverse the Staff's decision and state
RIB ASSEMBLY MTG. - June 7, 1984 Page 3
that any extraction of sand, gravel or rock from areas other than
industrial zoned areas would require an exception.
Mayor Selby recessed the Board of Adjustment and reconvened the regular
Assembly meeting.
Mr. White moved to adopt Res. No. 84-63-R Affirming An Interpreta-
tion Of The Planning And Zoning Commission Regarding Sand, Gravel
and Rock Extraction. Seconded by Mrs. Cater.
Mayor Selby recessed the regular Assembly meeting and reconvened the
Board of Adjustment.
Mr. Maciak: (chairman of Gravel Task Force) We agreed in principal
that there needed to be a source of rock for contractors. And
secondly, we did agree on slope cuts.
The residential property owners are saying to enforce the present
UBC and Borough ordinances and not to make new ones.
Scott Arndt: I believe that the Commission's interpretation of uses
permitted in Residential -zoned districts, for example, is contrary
to the intent of the authors of the Code. Normal residential site
preparation often requires the removal of overburden from the lot,
including drilling, shooting and ripping of rock ridges in order
to provide adequate access and a usable site location for the house
to be constructed. Such site preparation, I feel, is incidental to
the use of the lot in all residential and business zoning
districts. Until the Commission's April 19 meeting, Borough staff
had always considered such normal site preparation as permissable
under the Code in the development of a lot for its intended use,
while requiring an exception where the removal of rock/gravel
appeared to be more than merely incidental to lot development. I
have no problem with the previous interpretation of the Code, and
would prefer to see us continue with that application of the Code.
I hate to see the P & Z Commission get carried away with what it
perceives to be an abuse of what was formerly considered normal
site development activity and impose cumbersome regulations upon
all who wish to develop their properties. I would like for you to
adopt the resolution reversing P & Z's decision.
Dave Herrnsteen: I would like to urge you to support P & Z's
decision. The Uniform Building Code is pretty straight forward in
the way it sets it up. It requires a permit for certain things
and for your excavation you don't need a permit to take your rock
out. I think it is extremely important that these permits be gone
through. They are not that difficult and the procedure can
certainly be revised. The normal development for a residential lot
shouldn't be any problem for getting the necessary permits. If
this thing is not regulated properly, it can do far more damage
to a person's neighborhood and the money he has invested in his
home more than anything else.
Mike Brechan: The bottom line to this whole discussion is the fact
that the Borough Assembly has erred in a basic requirement for the
community. You have said that "barrow" in anything but industrial
zones is prohibited basically by the ruling of P & Z. That is fine
except that the number of areas of industrial zoning that have
applicable barrow are very small and very tightly controlled and
it is an injustice to the community because of the nature of our
community. I agree with Mr. Arndt's position.
Steve Tolton: I would like to know who is going to define what
overburden is as opposed to sand. We need to come to some
conclusions. My suggestion again is Mr. Arndt's, that the
Borough Engineer, or someone in his place that has the educational
training to make some decisions, and as long as there were some
appeal procedures in place it would take a burden off of P & Z
that is going to become extremely cumbersome when each of us wants
to move a pickup load of something off our property.
Lorna Arndt: This is getting worse than Russia, when you tell
someone what to do with their land.
Mayor Selby closed the Board of Adjustment and reconvened the Assembly
meeting.
Mr. Murray moved to amend by substitution by reversing the P & Z's

decision. Seconded by Mr. Wakefield. Amendment carried by
unanimous roll call vote.
Main motion as amended carried by unanimous roll call vote on
Resolution No. 84-63-R.
Mr. Anderson moved to direct staff to change the interpretation of
isolated lot, from what it has been to not being isolated lot in a
residential area in the UBC. Seconded by Mr. White. Motion failed
3-4 with Mr. Anderson, Mrs. Cater and Mr. White casting the YES
votes.
Mr. Wakefield moved to direct Staff to continue what they have been
doing. Seconded by Mrs. Cater. Motion carried 4-3 with Mr.
Anderson, Mrs. Cater and Mr. White casting the NO votes.
Mr. Anderson moved to have P & Z look at the UBC and come back to
the Assembly with recommendations on revisions. Seconded by Mrs.
Cater. Motion carried by unanimous voice vote.
Mayor Selby requested that City Mayor John Pugh come forward at this
time.
Mayor Pugh read a proclamation into the record commending Mr.
Shealy as Borough Manager for his dedication and service to the
entire Kodiak community. He also presented Mr. Shealy with the
Key to the City, fully understanding that in Borough - City
cooperation the City is going to change the locks tomorrow.
VII PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Ord. No. 84-22-0(A) Levying Taxes On All Taxable Real And
Personal Property Within The Borough For The Expenses And
Liabilities Of The Borough For The Fiscal Year Commencing On The
First Day Of July 1984 And Ending On The Thirtieth Day Of June
1985 and Public Hearing On Federal Revenue Sharing Funds.
Mr. Wakefield moved to adopt Ordinance No. 84-22-0. Seconded by
Mr. Anderson.
Mr. Wakefield moved to amend by substituting Ordinance
No.84-22-0(A). Seconded by Mr. Anderson. Amendment carried by
unanimous roll call vote.
Mr. Murray moved to amend by increasing the allocation under
Health & Sanitation an appropriation of $400,000 for the Kodiak
Island Hospital thereby changing the total expenditures from
$5,555,640 to $5,955,640 with the additional revenue coming by
adding an additional mill on the expenditure side. Seconded by Mr.
Anderson. Amendment failed 1-6 with Mr. Murray casting the YES
vote.
Regular session closed:
Public Hearing on Federal Revenue Sharing opened:
Paul Stubbe: (Kodiak Community College) I would like to thank you
for your continued support of the Federal Revenue money. We will
continue to plan and develop the courses that meet the needs of the
community.
Joel Davis: (Council on Alcoholism) I would also like to say an
appreciation for your support in the Federal Revenue sharing
support. We are providing treatment for the community through
several phases.
Jerry Wilson: (Kodiak Arts Council) I would like to thank you for
at least including us at this point in the Federal Revenue sharing.
This is an important step for us.
Alan Schmitt: (Alaska Legal Services) Unfortunately, I am not able
to thank you for the second time in a row because once again we
get another goose egg. We provide a service to not just the ones
here in Kodiak but to the whole island.
Meg Miller: (Small World Day Care Center) We want to encourage you
to vote positively on the amount that you have allocated to us.
KIB ASSEMBLY MTG. - June 7 1984

Janet Carter: (Women's Resource Center) I would like to thank you
for your continuing support of the agency. The money will enable
us to continue services so needed in the community.
Scott Arndt: (Service Districts) We appreciate the funding to take
care of the services that are being provided which are mainly the
road service and the fire protection in both of the districts.
Lorna Arndt: I feel most of these organizations that you gave so
much of our federal revenue dollars to are suppose to be self-
supporting. Not everyone uses them! I think the money should be
spent more where everybody uses them not a few. These monies
should be going into roads which everybody uses.
Bill Swearingin: (Monashka Bay Road Service Area) We really need
the money. We have a lot of bad roads that really need the repair.
Katy Howard: (Kodiak Women's Resource & Crisis Center) We would
like to thank you for your continued support of the organization.
I would also like to say one word on behalf of AK Legal Services
because of the fact that many of the clients that the Women's
Resource & Crisis Center serves and in most instances have no other
recourse in terms of legal assistance.
Public Hearing closed on Federal Revenue Sharing:
Regular Session opened:
Mr. Wakefield moved to amend by moving $5,000 from Mental Health
Center federal revenue sharing line item and place it in Alaska

with Mr. White casting the NO vote.
Mr. Murray moved to amend by reducing the amounts for the Fire
Protection Service Area #1 and the Bells Flats Fire $2,500 for
each and place that in Alaska Legal Services. Seconded by Mr.
Wakefield. Amendment failed 2-5 with Ms. Barker and Mr. Murray
casting the YES votes.
Regular Session closed:
Public Hearing opened on Ord. No. 84-22-0(A):
Anthony Cristaldi: (Kodiak Island Hospital) I feel that our quality
of health care could be at risk.
Lorna Arndt: I think the Borough has gone all out and really spent
our monies on items for the Hospital. I don't think it's being
managed right if you can't save on man -power.
Scott Arndt: The fund balance of the School District is not shown
in the budget. The actual educational costs is misleading.
Public Hearing closed:
Regular Session opened:

Mr. Murray moved to adopt Ordinance No. 84-26-0. Seconded by Ms.
Barker.
Regular Session closed:
Public Hearing opened:
Walt Ebell: (speaking on Timberline's behalf) Timberline has
operated a sawmill on the premise since 1976. Timberline is the
only sawmill in Alaska that is qualified to produce stamped and
graded lumber. This means that the lumber can be used in all
certified and government projects. The sawmill provides a means
of utilizing our local timber resources which otherwise would be
wasted or exported. Timberline should be provided an opportunity
to purchase this real property in order to guarantee it's continued
operation. The property is currently zoned conservation. The
operation is granfathered in. We would urge you to pass this
ordinance at this time so that this important business can become
a permanent fixture in our community.
Cathy Cordry: We are the closest neighbor to Timberline. We are
currently working on a comprehensive plan for the area and one of
the main considerations is a commercial industrial area out there
for sawmills and gravel pits.
Ken Damm: I am in favor of surplusing the property and the sale at
a public auction.
Tony Perez: I am in favor of surplusing the property and putting it
up for public auction. I would like to see Timberline get this and
be an established business here.

Debra Burgy: I believe it would be premature to surplus this land
at this time. At this time the comprehensive planning group is
meeting to form an overall plan for the area.
Toby Cook: I would like to testify in favor of the ordinance. My
house is built out of rough spruce. We live out in Monashka Bay
and have not heard about the comprehensive plan until tonight.
Bill Swearingin:
I live on Marmot Drive and I don't
have anything
against having a
sawmill in the area. Definitely
there is going
to have to be some commercial property out there,
but fifteen acres
in that area is
quite a bit for a sawmill of that
size. I don't
think it's time
right now to turn the land over to
the sawmill
without looking
at what is going to happen with the
other land out
there.
Nancy Missal: I live on Marmot Drive. I ask that the Borough not
sell the fifteen acres that are now leased to Timberline at this
time. Timberline only occupies approximately five to six acres
of the fifteen acres. I asked Mr. Grothe if he had any intentions
of expanding, he skirted my question and never did give me an
answer on it. That is of great concern to all of us. I'm not
saying there's not a need for a sawmill, I just feel there should
be a more appropriate place.
Okey Chandler: You should do what you think is right. I think you
should sell.
Elaine Hunter-Rennell: I live in Monashka Bay Subdivision. My
house was built with wood from Timberline. I am concerned that the
comprehensive plan continue.
Dan Ogg: When the Assembly first started the leasing to Timberline,
the impression was given to the residents that this was temporary.
Two and a half years down the road, we now come to a point where
they are requesting to purchase the property. I think a little
more time should be spent in considering how to develop the area
out there. I think it is necessary before you decide to surplus
this land to determine just exactly what the value of it is. Mr.
Ogg requested his following letters be entered into the record.
(Mr. Ogg's testimony to the P & Z Commission received April 18,
1984 and the letter to the Mayor and Assembly received April 30,
1984 will be attached to the original minutes for public scrutiny
due to their length.)
Marsha Oswalt: I am a member of the community planning group.
I don't have direct ownership in Timberline but my husband is
involved in that business so I have interest in it too. I don't
feel that surplusing the property and putting it up for auction at
this time is incompatible with our completion with the planning
process. I would like to see planning take place in this area.
Steve Rennell: (As a citizen and not a P & Z Commissioner)
I would like to see the planning process continue and I really
think it would be a detriment if this land was deemed surplus to
Borough needs.
Marlin Knight: (P & Z Rep.) I agree with everything that was stated
by Walt Ebell tonight with regards to diversification of our
economy and the need to have a timber industry to provide an alter-
native cost for housing. I felt that it was a five year lease and
only half was completed. I felt there was sufficient time
remaining in the lease to provide for the comprehensive planning
group and also to provide for more hearings. There were only four
commissioners present at the meeting and the vote was split 2-2.
I am aware that two of the commissioners that were not present
would have voted to deny the request.
Roland Reuss: (Timberline employee) I would like for you to
consider my employer's planning for the future.
Scott Arndt: I think the Assembly should get involved in the
planning of the area as far as what your intentions are as far as
giving guidelines as what you would like to see. If you decide not
to sell, I would like to see you give serious consideration to a
long term lease.
KIB ASSEMBLY MTG. - June 7, 1984
Page 8
Len Grothe: We need to know to plan for the future. I would like
to ask you to surplus this property so that we have a chance to
bid on it. If you decide to vote no, we need to know the reason
when we tell our employees they are out of work. We would possibly
put a roof over the wood so that it doesn't get wet when it rains.
I don't envision anything larger than what we are running now. If
we do have a permanent home there, most likely what we would expand
is the log storage.
Mel Stephens: I am not here for the law firm tonight. I would like
to ask you to vote on this issue doing it as an issue that impacts
this community as a whole.

XI MAYOR'S COMMENTS
1. It was brought to my attention that Mr. Wilton White was named
by Governor Sheffield as one of the top twenty-five volunteers
of community service in the State of Alaska.
2. I would like to request that Management contact Mr. Mingen of
Lutheran Homes Hospitals and see if he could be available to
meet with the Assembly and Hospital Board in a work session
sometime during June.
3. I would just like to mention the status on the two million
dollars, for public record, Mr. Weeks is back in New York right
now attending the meeting with the Court. The two million
dollars is not necessarily totally lost. We still have a chance
of recovering, I think, at least a substantial part if not all.

XII ASSEMBLY COMMENTS
Page 13
Mr. Anderson: I have a little bit of a problem with the attitude of
the P & Z, the Assembly and some of the public concerning contrac-
tors and developers. When anything comes up that has anything to
do with them it seems they are jumped on for making money. They
are businessmen in the community like myself, Krafts, cannerie's and
so forth. I really think they should change their attitude a
little bit. They are contributing to the community and we really
couldn't get along without them.
Mr. Wakefield: I just want to apologize to Mr. Shealy for not
in Homer.
±
making all of his parties. I want to wish you well
nI
think the Manager selection committee should try and meet this
IL
next Thursday at 4:00 pm.
Mr. White: I just have a concerw about a buffer zone around Timber-
line. I just wonder if we shouldn't give some direction to Staff.
Mr. Anderson moved that the Borough set aside a Buffer Zone of two
hundred seventy-one feet on the westerly side of Island Vista Subdivi-
sion from Rezanof east to the tidelands and to work them into the deed
restrictions to the deed. Seconded by Mr. Wakefield. Motion carried
by unanimous voice vote.
Mr. Naughton: I think we need to direct Staff to build a rail -
frame around the light -switch so that people don't lean against
the switch and turn it off accidently.
Mr. Wakefield: I think we need to direct Staff to oil these chairs
also.
Ms. Barker: I voted against requiring a grading -permit at this
time, however, I am in favor of having grading -permits. I don't
think in fairness it was the thing to do right now in the middle
of a building season. I do think we should incorporate it into
our next building season.
In regards to Mr. Chandler's petition, I feel that was a re -action
that perhaps the people didn't feel that the Borough was being as
I responsive as they could be. I feel that we are responsible and
l-_ that any complaints on how we make decisions or spend monies fall
directly on our shoulders. I think that having an elected mayor
won't shift that responsibility to anyone. It will just make those
decisions more political and perhaps less professional.
Mr. Murray: I would just like to express my appreciation of the
efforts of Phil for the last three years. I have appreciated his
professionalism. I think he has certainly gone above and beyond
what we might have expected in a manager.
Mrs. Cater: I just agree with all my colleagues. We all wish you
well in Homer.
XIII AUDIENCE COMMENTS
Okey Chandler: We had a Borough Chairman for twelve years and it
worked like a charm. It worked better than this is working now.
Otherwise, I wouldn't wasting my time circulating the petition.
Scott Arndt: I don't have a problem with the low-cost housing
principal. One of the programs that Kodiak Island Housing
Authority is promoting does not add to the tax -base. It takes away
from it. So what we continually have around the Island and in town
is the tax -base shrinking, not growing. You have less and less
people carrying the burden. I think you made the right decision.
XIV ADJOURNMENT
Mr. Anderson moved to adjourn. Seconded by Mr. Wakefield. Motion

EXECUTIVE PROCLAMATION
by
MAYOR of KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH, ALASKA
Hiring of veterans will be emphasized nationally during the Month of June, with
one of the major objectives being to maximize the effectiveness of the
Emergency Veterans' Job Training Act (EVJTA Program) and subsequently reduce
the unemployment rate of the nation's Vietnam and Korean war veterans.
Hire the Vet Month will explore all ways to make every employer aware that
EVJTA provides direct payment to an employer for half the cost of hiring and
training a veteran for work in growth or technological based industry. This
means that an employer can be reimbursed up to $10,000 for hiring and training
a Korean or Vietnam era veteran.
The Job Service offices of the Alaska Department of Labor, the U. S. Veterans
Administration and the Veterans' Employment and Training Service will be
concentrating on the developing of jobs with the employers for the Emergency
Veterans' Job Training Act and the placing of veterans in these jobs. In
addition, the Alaska Job Service will continue with its concentrated program of
!1 developing jobs and placement of veterans from all wars in all jobs that become
available.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Jerome M. Selby , Mayor of Kodiak Island Bormj*. AK do
hereby
proclaim the month
of June 1984
as:
ALASKA
HIRE A VET MONTH
and hereby encourage Alaska private and public employers to actively seek out
and hire veterans through the Emergency Veterans' Job Training Act, to improve
existing programs that can link all veterans with employment and training
opportunities and to stimulate the formation of action groups at all levels to
marshal available resources to attain these goals for Alaska veterans.

OFFICE OF THE PAYOR
PROCLAMATION
C
WHEREAS, more Americans each year are choosing recreational boating
as an ideal way to relax with their families and friends.
However, what starts out as a pleasant cruise often ends in
tragedy because boaters fail to teach their families to
swim, fail to properly equip their craft with Personal
Flotation Devices and other protective equipment, or fail
to instruct their passhngers in the use of such devices to
a boating cruise; and
WHEREAS, every year hundreds of lives are lost in boating accidents,
These fatalities can be reduced and boating made more
pleasurable if those who engage in it will emphasize
knowledge, care and courtesy necessary for safe boating; and
WH 'iEAS, the Congress of the United States, having recognized the
need for such emphasis, has, by joint resolution of
4 June 1958 (72 Stat..179), requested the President to
annually proclaim one week as National Safe Boating Week.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Jerome Selby, Mayor of the Borough of Kodiak, Alaska,
do hereby designate the week beginning June j, 1984, as
FJNATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK IN KODIAK
I urge all who use our waterways to acquire those skills and
knowledges essential to their own safety and that of others and to
apply these carefully.
IN ':ITNESS WHERECF, I have hereunto set my hand this fourth day of June,
in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty four.
