Ord. No. 85-1-0 Amending The Schedule Relating To Pay Ranges And Class Titles For Employees Of The KIB And Providing An Effective Date. (COLA) Mr. Wakefield moved to adopt Ordinance No. 85-1-0. Seconded by Mrs. Cater. Regular Session closed: Public Hearing opened: KIB AGE9A -, March .17 , 1985 Page 2 Ray Camardella:(Fac. Coor.) I would like to speak in favor of the ordinance and request that the Assembly consider the employee's request for a 5% cost of living adjustment. One of the things I would like to point out is that acceptance of a 5% cost of living adjustment would result in a .00018 mill rate effect. Scott Arndt: I guess from the other side, I would urge you to be cautious. Karl Short: I would like to speak in favor of a 5% COLA for the employees. I think it is a good measure to keep our long term employees and try to build up continuity in the Borough. Perry Page: (Data Proc. Mgr.) I don't think 5% is too much out of line, considering the cost of living that other entities are getting, in order to keep our Borough moving and enticing qualified employees to Kodiak. It makes only about 1% of the total budget of the Borough, so it's not very much at all considering that you do have good employees working for the Borough. Public Hearing closed: Regular Session opened: Mr. Wakefield moved to amend by changing the 2.5% to 3.0% COLA increase in each range of all employees. Seconded by Mrs. Cater.

XI MAYOR'S COMMENTS 1) Originally under Communications and Appearances, I had requested that we look at the development of an Overall Development Planning Committee for the Kodiak Island Borough. This is a time that I personally feel is where we need this type of advisement in looking at what goals and objectives that the Borough has developed in the past to treat economic policies and to develop an approach and to provide us with the manage- ment tools to deal with policy development within that area. XII ASSEMBLY COMMENTS Ms Baker: None. Mr. Blankenburg: None. Mrs. Cater: None. Mr. Wakefield: None. Mr. White: 1) I just want to commend Linda for the job she did discussing some of the concerns with the Women's Bay. It was suggested that they might meet with the Assembly and express their concerns re: Borough land disposal in the community and they also want to get into Phase II of the Comprehensive Plan. 2) I am concerned that we try to hold the line re: budgets. I don't want to see the mill levy go up this year. XIII AUDIENCE COMMENTS Scott Arndt: I strongly agree with Mr. White in regards to the mill rate for the coming year. Over a period of the last, approximately three years, the Borough has gone through a re -assessment of all the property. Now the property is basically at a 100% valuation. Royal Large: I am opposed to the COLA that was passed earlier. There's too many people on the payroll in my opinion. KIB AGENDA — March 7, 1985 Page 6 r Lorna Arndt: The reason the Personnel Board backed out the last three years on giving any recommendation on COLA is because we already know that they usually receive their step increase every year which is 2}i. XIV ADJOURNMENT Mr. Blankenburg moved to adjourn. Seconded by Mr. Wakefield. Mayor Peterson adjourned the meeting at 8:22 pm. ATTEST:
