PUBLIC HEARING 1. Ordinance No. FY2021-01 D Budget Amendment For Cares Funding To Provide Funding To The City Of Kodiak, Purchase Of Testing Supplies And Expenditures Of Balance For Covid-19 Community Impacts. Clerk's Note: Kavanaugh expressed an appearance of possible conflict of interest. Mayor Roberts ruled that Assembly Kavanaugh would not have a direct financial benefit therefore ruling no conflict of interest. DVORAK moved to adopt Ordinance No. FY2021-01 D Version 2. The Borough is eligible to receive up to $5,792,500.90 in Federal CARES Act (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) grant funds via the State of Alaska. The funding occurs in three payments: • $4,836,892.90 (83.5% of total amount) received • $477,804.00 (8.25% of total amount) will be payment is expended • $477,804.00 (8.25% of total amount) will be payment is expended on 06/26/2020 received after 80% ($3,869,514) of 1st received after 80% ($382,243) of 2nd Any money not expended prior to December 30, 2020 must be returned to the State of Alaska. The Assembly has previously approved funding for the Schools, the Borough, business, and non-profit grants. In addition, money was held in reserve for unplanned needs and the potential for a change in the law to allow less restrictions regarding the use of funds. At work session, discussion occurred regarding the funding request by the City, the need for testing supplies, and a discussion to credit Solid Waste customers to offset financial difficulties they have experienced due to COVID-19. Discussion centered around the Sitka and City of Kodiak "models" with direction to staff to return with a similar proposal. Staff has reviewed the other jurisdictions proposal and staff has prepared a separate item to deal with the process and requirements for such a credit on customer accounts. In short, a flat amount ($500.00 in the City of Kodiak for example) is being funded by CARES to offset financial hardships caused by COVID-19. An application and certification of impact is required. In our case, based upon customer counts and assuming a flat credit to all customers, each would see a credit of $253.00 applied to their bill. In regard to testing supplies, we are being forced into the marketplace and we expect a significant demand for testing. Currently, supplies range in price with a low price of $41 per test for needed supplies. Appropriating $400,000 would provide enough test supplies for 9,750 (we have used over 13,000 tests since March). We expect the fish processing regulations, cases on the island and travel demands to increase or stay strong, thus creating a significant ongoing demand. Further, by providing the materials for the tests, it lessens the overall potential costs to those receiving the tests. Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Regular Meeting Minutes November 5, 2020 Page 2 of 11 There are several alternatives that have been discussed, but in any event, due to the deadlines we face, a plan of action should be adopted. Mayor Roberts opened the public hearing. Seeing and hearing none, Mayor Roberts closed the public hearing and reconvened the regular meeting.

Ordinance No. FY2021-18 Rezoning A Portion of Tract 37, Township 30 South, Range 20 West, Section 32, Seward Meridian From C - Conservation To R1 - Single Family Residential And PI - Public Use Land (Zoning Will Correspond To Lots Created By Abbreviated Subdivision S21-002). ARNDT moved to adopt Ordinance No. FY2021-18. This rezone request was submitted by the City of Larsen Bay in conjunction with an abbreviated plat request to subdivide the same parcel. Each request will be conditional on the approval of the other. The intent is for proposed Lot 2, the larger parcel, to be retained by a private party and rezoned to R1-Single-family residential, while the smaller parcel, proposed Lot 1, will be donated to the Larsen Bay Tribal Council and rezoned to PL-Public Use Land in order to maintain the existing graves and cultural resources found there. The rezone of this portion of Tract 37, T30S R29W, Section 32 located in the city of Larsen Bay will assist in facilitating an exchange between the City of Larsen Bay and Mike Carlson, a private landowner in Larsen Bay. The City needs a mechanic shop and has proposed the trade of the subject parcel for a suitable shop owned by Mr. Carlson. The intent of both parties is for Mr. Carlson to retain 3.2798 acres of the subject parcel (proposed Lot 2) while 1.1593 acres (proposed Lot 1) will be donated to the Larsen Bay Tribal Council to preserve existing gravesites on the lot. The subdivision of the subject parcel received preliminary approval on August 20, 2020, conditional on the approval of this rezone. The 2008 Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive Plan does not provide a clear future land use designation for the subject parcel. However, that appears to be typical treatment of larger, Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Regular Meeting Minutes November 5, 2020 Page 3 of 11 undeveloped parcels around the villages in the 2008 plan. There is language that indicates all land outside cities and unincorporated communities should be zoned Conservation. However, this parcel falls well within the Larsen Bay boundaries. The 1984 Larsen Bay Comprehensive Plan did designate the future use of this lot as residential. Therefore, this rezone would bring a portion of this parcel in line with the direction of that plan. The 1984 Larsen Bay plan also stated a Land Use Goal of "maintaining the general pattern of existing land uses while providing suitable land use areas for expected community growth." Objective #4 of that goal was to "Protect the historically and archaeologically significant lands." Rezoning the portion of the subject lot containing the existing gravesites to PL-Public Use Land and dedicating it to the Tribal Council satisfies that objective. In 1977, Ordinance 1977-15-0 was passed which rezoned all previously unclassified lands as C- Conservation. The subject parcel was part of that rezone, which created a non -conforming lot based on the minimum lot size for the C-Conservation District. Lots zoned Conservation are required to have a minimum lot size of 5 acres. The subject parcel is 4.4391 acres. Because the parcel is non -conforming, it will be prohibited from subdividing without an approved rezone. Rezoning and subdividing this parcel will bring it into compliance from a lot size standpoint for both proposed parcels. Additionally, lots directly across the street are zoned R1 — Single -Family Residential, so the rezoning of proposed Lot 2 to R1 is consistent with the neighborhood. Within the residential area adjacent to this lot, there are several parcels held as PL — Public Use Land. Rezoning proposed Lot 1 to Public Use would be consistent with previous practices and would preserve and respect the cultural history of Larsen Bay by allowing the maintenance of existing grave sites and allowing additional grave sites to be placed there. Public Use is the only zone that permits cemetery use. Mayor Roberts opened the public hearing. CITIZENS' COMMENTS The following spoke under citizens' comments: • Randy Blondin Mayor Roberts closed the public hearing and reconvened the regular meeting. ARNDT moved to remand Ordinance No. FY2021-18 back to the Planning and Zoning Commission and notify everyone in the community. ROLL CALL VOTE ON MOTION TO REMAND CARRIED FOUR TO THREE: Schroeder, Skinner, Symmons, Arndt (AYES); Turner, Dvorak, and Kavanaugh (NOES). Mayor Roberts recessed the meeting at 7:55 p.m. Mayor Roberts reconvened the meeting at 8:00 p.m. 3. Ordinance No. FY2021-19 An Ordinance of The Assembly Of The Kodiak Island Borough Amending Various Chapters Of KIBC Title 17 (Zoning) To Address Issues Such As Necessary Updates, Errors And Omissions And Procedural Clarification. Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Regular Meeting Minutes November 5, 2020 Page 4 of 11 ARNDT moved to adopt Ordinance No. FY2021-19. Title 17 (Zoning) of the Kodiak Island Borough Code is the zoning code for the entire borough. It is the most referenced code by the Community Development Department and therefore, mistakes, needed modifications, and updates are noted on a regular basis. The changes proposed in the attached ordinance are those that have been encountered through the course of normal business. Since zoning addresses topics such as building size and location, the intent is to work cohesively with the adopted building code. Multiple discussions found that certain portions of the zoning code addressing minor structural development and those structures and uses requiring a zoning compliance permit to be outdated and inconsistent with the currently adopted building code. Title 17 also references a specific building code, which is no longer the current adopted building code. Following the practice implemented with other revisions, this ordinance changes the language to reference the "current adopted building code." In the definition section of Title 17, specific descriptions of structures requiring, or not requiring, zoning compliance permit were described, including examples of (outdated) square foot requirements. Regulations should not be included in a definition section. Changes have been made to reflect this. The proposed amendments are consistent with the following Local Government and Land Use goals and implementation actions of the adopted Comprehensive Plan: Local Government Goal: Improve the efficiency of service provision among government agencies within the Borough. Land Use Goal: Make efficient use of planning staff and other resources. Land Use Goal: Continue to update and improve the effectiveness of Borough policies, plans, regulations, and procedures. Land Use Implementation Action: Update and enhance the KIB Zoning Ordinance, as well as other planning procedures to meet land use and planning goals cost-effectively and efficiently. Mayor Roberts opened the public hearing. Seeing and hearing none, Mayor Roberts closed the public hearing and reconvened the regular meeting. ROLL CALL VOTE ON MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY: Skinner, Symmons, Turner, Arndt, Dvorak, Kavanaugh, and Schroeder. 4. Ordinance No. FY2021-20 Rezoning Lots 1, 2 And 3, Block 13, Aleutian Homes Subdivision, From R2-Two-Family Residential To B-Business. DVORAK Move to adopt Ordinance No. FY2021-20. Mr. Seel requested a rezone of Lots 1, 2 & 3, Block 13, Aleutian Homes Subdivision, from R2 - Two -Family Residential District to UNC — Urban Neighborhood Commercial District. The subject lots make up one tax parcel. The subject tax parcel is located between Center Avenue and Carolyn Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Regular Meeting Minutes November 5, 2020 Page 5 of 11 Street on Lower Mill Bay Road. The lot is across the street from the Post Office. The lot is currently vacant, but Mr. Seel would like to build a structure on the property so that his wife can move her business, Kodiak Print Masters, into the new structure. The new structure would also provide storage for Mr. Seel's construction business and two apartments above the businesses. UNC - Urban Neighborhood Commercial District is established for the purpose of providing for limited retail and personal service uses for the consumer population in the immediate neighborhoods in which such uses are located. Because Kodiak Print Masters is a commercial printshop that provides services for the greater Kodiak community, and not just the immediate neighborhood, staff is recommending that the rezone request be amended from the requested UNC — Urban Neighborhood Commercial zoning to the proposed B—Business zoning. Additionally, the intended use of the subject parcel is more in line with the criteria set forth in KIBC 17.90.020 Permitted Uses. A rezone of the subject parcel to B-Business would be inconsistent with the future residential land use designation presented in the 2008 Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive Plan for that parcel but would be consistent with the future commercial/business land use designation trend along the commercial corridor that runs from West Rezanof Drive, up Lower Mill Bay Road and along Mill Bay Road to the intersection of East Rezanof Drive. The rezone would also be consistent with the current B-Business zoning district trend along the same corridor. Current zoning for Lower Mill Bay Road from Center Avenue to Carolyn Street is a mix of B— Business, R1—Sing le -Family Residential, R2—Two-Family Residential and PL-Public Use Lands. 2008 Kodiak Island Borough future land use designations for this same area are Commercial/Business, Urban Residential and Public Facilities/Ownership. Mr. Seel requested the subject parcel be rezoned to UNC — Urban Neighborhood Commercial since a previous request to rezone the parcel from R2-Two-Family Residential to B-Business, was denied. On July 18, 1990, the Planning and Zoning Commission denied the rezone request presented in Case 90-42, amending the zoning for Lots 1, 2 & 3, Block 13, Aleutian Homes Subdivision from R2-Two-Family Residential to B-Business. The Findings of Fact supporting the action were adopted August 15, 1990. Thirty years have passed since Case 90-42 was heard and the conditions described in the Findings of Facts in Case 90-42 no longer apply. Firstly, Lower Mill Bay Road was upgraded during the Mill Bay Road Reconstruction Project in the early 1990s. Aerial imagery from July 5, 1985 shows that Lower Mill Bay Road between Center Avenue and Carolyn Street was a two-lane road. Today, Lower Mill Bay Road has an additional lane in the middle of the road to handle ingress and egress traffic to/from lots. This middle lane runs the full length of Lower Mill Bay Road, starting at Center Avenue, and extends all the way down Mill Bay Road to the intersection of East Rezanof Drive. Secondly, the applicant in Case 90-42 had no development plan when the rezone request was filed. By contrast, Mr. Seel has a clear development plan. Mayor Roberts opened the public hearing. Seeing and hearing none, Mayor Roberts closed the public hearing and reconvened the regular meeting.

Authorize the Borough Manager To Execute Contract No. FY2021-12 With Jacobs Engineering For Design And Cost Estimation For The 30% Design Of The Aeration Tank And Lamella Plate Clarifier In An Amount Not To Exceed $30,000. ARNDT moved to authorize the Borough Manager to execute Contract No. FY2021-12 in an amount not to exceed $30,000. This contract will fund the 30% design and estimating for the Aeration Tank Concept Design and pretreatment softening option for the Kodiak Island Borough Landfill Leachate Treatment Plant (LTP) to address the carbonate scale occurring in the plant process. This effort is anticipated to be the last design concept relating directly to the under performance of the LTP. This hybrid system will be reviewed and approved by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation prior to requesting funding for additional work. Funds for this project will come from the Solid Waste Enterprise Fund Budget. Kodiak Island Borough November 5, 2020 Assembly Regular Meeting Minutes Page 7 of 11 This design contract will be the last of five studies that have been performed for the operating plant system to remove calcium carbonate and alter the pH of the leachate prior to entering and potentially effecting the plant process.

Ordinances for Introduction Ordinance FY2021-16 Amending KIBC Title 3 Revenue and Finance, Chapter 3.630 Motor Vehicle Registration Tax, Section .030 Fee Imposed & Section .040 Annual Fee Imposed on Commercial Plates. Kodiak Island Borough November 5, 2020 Assembly Regular Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 11 ARNDT moved to advance Ordinance No. FY2021-16 to public hearing at the next regular meeting of the assembly on December 3, 2020. Motor Vehicle Registration Tax (MVRT) is in lieu of imposing personal property tax on vehicles (see AS 28.10.431(g) and are in the same nature as personal property tax revenues levied on other personal and business property. Unlike other personal property tax revenues, which are credited to the general fund and various service areas where the property resides, MVRT is credited to the Debt Service fund in FY2019 & FY2020 and to the Education Support Fund prior to FY2019. The tax rates currently in effect were established in March 2006 and, as indicated by the data below, revenues from this source have been steadily decreasing. Year Revenue FY2015 $262,175 FY2016 $253,112 FY2017 $235,177 FY2018 $237,895 FY2019 $220,392 FY2020 $215,538 For comparison, information in the packet includes the annual rate schedule for Ketchikan and the biennial rate schedule for Anchorage. The State of Alaska collects the tax on our behalf and then remits it to the borough monthly, less an 8% collection fee, and requires one year lead time for implementation of changes to the tax rate. The borough would have to provide the state a new rate schedule by December 31 st, 2020 in order to begin collecting on the new rates in January 2022. The State has been unable to provide information as to the number, age or type of vehicles registered in the Borough, so the fiscal impact is unknown.
