III ITEMS OF BUSINESS
1. PUBLIC HEARING: Res. No. 85-30-R Approving The FY 86
School District Budget And Determining The Total
Amount Of Money To Be Made Available From Local Sources.
Mr. White moved to adopt Resolution No. 85-30-R. Seconded by Mr.
Wakefield.
Regular Session closed:
Public Hearing opened:
Noreen Thompson: (Supt. of Schools) I would like to speak in favor of
the resolution and indicate to you and for the public that we have met
on two occasions and discussed the needs of the District. The reso-
lution is stated as discussed between myself, the Borough Assembly
members and the members of the School Board. I would respectfully
request your support of the resolution as you have it in front of you.
Scott Arndt: I am in favor of the Borough contributing to the Kodiak
Island School District although I do tend to disagree with the amount.
Lorna Arndt: I think the District should be making the cut and not the
Borough. You have already assessed every property owner a higher
assessment, so the tax dollars are going to be higher from every
property owner. I would like to see a cut here.
Dennis Murray: I think the Assembly needs to look at going forward
with some of the projects that we have in various design stages. I
speak specifically of the Larsen Bay School and also certainly the
East Elementary. I feel the capital items are equally important.
Public Hearing closed:

3. Res. No. 85-42-R Approving A Cooperation Agreement For The
Purposes Of Securing Financial Assistance For Low -Income
Housing Projects In The City Of Ouzinkie.
Ms. Barker moved to adopt Resolution No. 85-42-R. Seconded by Mrs.
Cater.
Marlin Knight: We were approached by the City of Ouzinkie to provide
additional housing. We have been working with them over the last
three to four months preparing the application to be submitted. This
resolution is required to approve the Cooperation Agreement because of
the powers that are retained in the Kodiak Island Borough. Those
powers refer to planning, platting, zoning, building enforcement and
taxation, among others that would have an affect on this particular
project.
Scott Arndt: I don't have an objection to the basic concept of the
Cooperative Agreement. There is one particular area that I do object
to and that area is that the property remain tax exempt. I don't feel
that the community can continue to expand upon the tax exempt property
in the Borough.
Marlin Knight: In the community of Ouzinkie, where this project is
going, approximately ninety-nine percent of the land is under a
restricted deed held by the Bureau of Indian Affairs and it is tax
exempt.
Motion carried by unanimous voice vote on Resolution No. 85-42-R.
