CORRESPONDENCE AND APPET' NCE REQUESTS
A. Letters from Mr. Cannon re Akhiok School -The letter was read in which cost pro-
posal in modification on the school was listed by J -B International Company.
The letter encompasses the remaining items previously discussed to complete
the Akhiok School. Mr. Barr stated for the benefit of the audience that this
has been the subject of many meetings and our objective is to upgrade the
Akhiok School to the point where it will protect not only the lives of the
students but the building as well through gypsum board on the furnace room wall
and fire dampers. At this time it is not known whether this will be local
cost or revert back to the seller. This project has been done with the utmost
speed in order to see that the students miss as few days as possible. With a
conventional type of building the students would have lost nearly a year. Mr.
Arndt stated the matter looks in order. Mr. Schott had no recommendations as
the letter was to Mr. Best. Mr. Barr stated the action needed here was to
give the Boro'ugh's approval of cost proposal. Mrs. Springhill moved that
proposal for upgrading of the Akhiok School to the level that has been des-
cribed be accepted. Seconded by Mr. Arndt. Mr. Norton Recommended that we
accept these conditions and do the best we can to collect from Northland Cass
The question was called for; notice. passed by unanimous roll call vote.
B. Letter from Department of Housing & Urban Development re Preliminary Plan
Preparation of Senior High School. The letter was read stating that the
application for an advance of funds for Preliminary Plan Preparation for a
Senior High School has been approved. The Agreement was enclosed and must be
accepted by January 17, 1969. Mr. Barr commented that many of these items
have come up since the Borough Chairman left and he has not had an opportunity
to see the correspondence. Mr. Arndt moved that the Assembly table this until
the School Board and Borough Chairman have had a chance to review it. Seconded
by Mrs. Springhill. Motion carried by unanimous voice vote. Mrs. Springhill
requested that a report be given by the School Board and Borough Chairman after
they have reviewed the Agreement.
C. Letter from School Board re Sale - Larsen Bay School Surplus Furn. The letter
was read requesting the Assembly's permission to publish several items for
sale. Mrs. Springhill felt that this was not up to the Assembly but could be
better handled at the School Board level. Mrs. Springhill moved for approval
to publish the sale, seconded by Mr. Arndt. Motion carried by unanimous voice
vote. Per. Barr stated he would like to see a policy established between the
ASSEMBLY MEETING MINUTES - NOVEMBER 21, 1968 Page 2
School Board and the Assembly so the School Board could take care of many
items without having to bring them before the Assembly. Mr. Norton stated
only a letter from the Assembly was needed; however Mr. Barr felt the School
Board should help deternine the policy. Mr. Schott mentioned that because
of the acjuisit on costs of these items, even though they are now in very bad
condition, it was felt this should be brought before the Assembly. Mr. Norton
was anxious that a letter be sent to the School Board setting forth a policy
between the Assembly and the School so that no further problems might arise.
V D. LETTER FROM Ivor A. Schott re Water Service for School at Old Harbor. Letter
frcan Ivor A. Schott re. Water service for School at Old Harbor The litter was
read giving the proposed rate for water service to the school.
rMr. Norton stated _' stated that this way, for :information only. The
Assembly concurred.
E. Letter from R. W. Fischer & Assoc., re mapping. The letter was
read giving a quotation for the job of putting complete dimensions and areas
on the existing 200 scale map, maximum of $1,200. Someone in Kodiak could add
the dimensions and aress and Fischer & Assoc could take care of the enlarging.
Mrs. Springhill asked what this included and if the Borough Chairman could do
this. Mr. Barr .stated that the Chairman can if he stays within the Budget.
Mr. Barr outlined the policy that was established after the previous Assessor
resigned. The Borough did not hire another Assessor but would keep an
Assessor in the office to carry on the day to day duties and would hire an
outside firm to ccri in and appraise the area. This was done to avoid ccilaints
on_ assessments lede This will be done over a five year period and
the cost for this plug:; the present assessor's salary would not go over the
previously established sal y for the Aoses-sor Position. Mr. Barr felt that
perhaps this Irai :ping may well fall outside the Budget. Mr. Arndt suggested
this be tabled until Mr. Best returns. Mrs. Springhill moved to table any
action of the letter from Pe W. Fischer until Mr. Best returns, seconded by
Mr. Arndt, motion carried by unanimous voice vote.
F. Letter from Olsen & S=ends re Architectural Contract- Staff Residence, Hospital.
The letter was read. This contract should be taker: care of as soon as possible
but not before the HospitaL'oard has reviewed. HL. Arndt moved that this be
tables _until . Borotich :ha.i n.: n can review, seconded by Mrs. Springhill. Motion
carried by unanimous voice vote.
G. Letter from Department of Natural resources re First Addn Port Lions, Alaska
Subdivision. The letter was read and it requested immediate confirmation so
action may be taken as soon possible. Briefly outlined this has to do with
lots or addition', of exiting town; changing school land to one side of the
street instead of {w3 sides and setting up a park and recreational area. This
should go to the Port Lions Council with our approval. Mrs. Springhill moved
that approval be eiven for the First 1'.ddition Port Lions Alaska Subdivision
subject to ' he approval of the Port Lions Council. Mr. Arndt seconded. Mr.
Norton asked if thi, takes land away from the school making the play area
smaller; he was ..^formed that it does not but probably gives the school a little
more area. This d.:s not affect land that is being used. Mr. Barr suggested
that perhaps the Schcol Board would like a plat of the land and if there are
any objections the Assembly could take action at the next meeting. Mrs.
Springhill amended her motion to state that approval be given for the First
Addn., Port Lions Alaska Subd subject to the approval of the Port Lions
Council and the School Board. Mr. Arndt seconded the amended motion. Motion
was carried by unanimous roll call vote.
H. Opinion from Attorney re Loan for Purchase of Fire Truck. The opinion was read
stating that the •papet -work urould YiaVe • to: l "done the art: c aId be

.. Mrs. Springhill said - there was nothing
to be discussed as the truck is being purchased and how are we going to pay for
it. She continued we have already taken money from Borough contingency fund
and N:r. Best has gone to pick up the truck. The question was raised as to the

cast of the equipment and Mr. Barr stated it was $33,700 pleb $1800 for the hose and
equipment. There is nothing on paper about how this will be paid for , replied Mrs.
Springhill. Mr. Barr stated that if we follow through with the ordinance as presented
in. the Public hearing and that ordinance is passed then we would add to the area in-
volved a taxation estimated at 4 to 6 mills to pay for the cost of the truck, the building
to house it in and also the man to service it. Mrs. Springhill stated that before the
mill rate was quoted at the level of 4.
VI PUBLIC HEARING
A. AMENDED Ordinance 68 -23 -0 Creating Fire Protection Service Area Outside the City
Limits. The ordinance was read with the exception of the description of the
area which was indicated on the map. Mrs. Springhill moved for adoption of the
Ordinance, seconded by Mr. Arndt. The Borough attorney's opinion was read by
Mrs. Springhill, concerning liability of Borough when areas are included that
cannot be served. The Attorney was of the opinion that in most cases it is
found that this is not legally right to have areas that cannot be served, how -
ever there have been some decisions that uphold the legality of this inclusion.
The meeting was recessed and public hearing opened. Mrs. Springhill read from
the minutes of the City Council meeting of November 18, 1958 "Mr. Goodman stated
that a revision needed to be made in the proposed area for the fire district
as the City and Borough own about 40% and they should not be assessed. Council-
man Berg moved that the City representatives to the Borough move to undertake
removing the City property assessment from the fire service district for fire
protection. Seconded by Councilman Tilley and roll call was unanimously favor-
able. Mrs. Springhill so proposed that the City and Borough property be removed
from the assessment rolls and was informed that this had teen done. Mr. Norton
presented an Objection to Inclusion in Fire Protection District with signatures
of petitioners. The objections were as follows: No cost analysis or studies
had been made and no study was made of the feasibility or practicality of
servicing total area and it was stated that many people did not feel they
should be included without requesting and certainly not without their consent.
Also that no study has been made of the City providing this service. Signers
of the petition were from Miller Point 2nd Addn. , and Monashka Bay and at time
of the meeting numbered seven. Comments from the Audience Mr. Felton ob-
jected to the ordinance and felt that it did not meet the criteria as set forth
by the Attorney, that no map was prepared. He was interested in the mill rate
and stated that there were people on the Assembly that had no need for this
service. Furthermore the Chairman has already bought the fire truck and is
spending $40,000 illegally. Mr. Ron Chase voiced the opinion that first roads
should be built before the property can be serviced. Island Lake needs it and
so does Spruce Cape but Monashka Bay has no fire hydrants. Mr. Chase is against
the ordinance and everybody in Monashka Bay and Miller Point is also and if the
Assembly will give him one or two more days he would obtain more signatures on
the objection petition. Mr. Kinnear objected because there was no information
on maintaining the road and in his area the people cannot even telephone and
are not interested in fire protection at this time. Mr. Fields stated that
the truck ordered is not suitable for this area, the hose is not long enough.
A fifty - gallon tank filled with anti - freeze as used in the villages would do
more gcc ' in the first five minutes than a fire truck could do later. Most of
the times the trucks could not even arrive in time. Mr. Sutliff stated that
it seems before getting involved in a fire service area a budget should be
worked out. Also as the ordinance is set up this way he felt it closes any
negotiation with the City for the City to provide this service. He also felt
the Borough was not capable of managing a fire service; felt the city should
manage this fire area and with a question so vital the whole assembly member-
ship should be present before passing the ordinance. Mr. Branson stated the
Ordinance appears to be in direct conflict with the Attorney's opinion in that
many of the areas cannot be serviced and many of the people are requesting to be
left out of the area. This will leave a few people paying for a lot of fire
protection. Mr. Chase asked why such a large area, to which Mrs. Springhill
stated that this area is an amended one and originally was much smaller. Mrs.
Springhill also stated that she was informed that there is an Attorney General's
opinion that whether or not you can be serviced you must pay the mill rate.
Originally there were several people that asked to be excluded, Mr. Schreiner
and Mr. Barr. Because of objections it was decided that the line should be
redrawn. A spot fire area cannot be set up, service area has to be set up in
areas rather than by lot. Mr. Chase felt that only the people signing the
petition should be included. lie. Arndt stated he felt the Assembly was forced
to enlarge the area at the last meeting. Mr. Norton replied that you were
forced to enlarge the area because you did not know what you were getting into.

• Dorton also stated he had obtained a list of the original petitioners and
there were some people who were not even property owners that had signed. He
further stated that he did not accuse Mr. Barr of drawing the line as Mr. Best
stated that he had drawn the line rather than Mr. Barr. The statutes were
reviewed by Mr. Barr and he stated we cannot have a local improvement district
but must have service district with a mill levy on real and personal property
evaluations instead of assessments on lots involved. As far as publication
and preparations of maps, a map was prepared on the original smaller area and
notice of both hearings was published 44, the Mirror. The Assembly had first
thought of acquiring a small four -wheel type of truck with a large tank and
relative small fire pump to fight fires. A letter was written to Pacific
Underwriters for an opinion as to tthat this type would do for the fire rates and
the reply was that it would not change the fire rate. Minimum standard equip-
ment was needed and minimum pumper rate of 600 gallons per minute was quoted.
The Borough Chairman contacted several manufactures throughout the States and
called many military bases trying to locate a truck and this one was the only
one available. This same truck was the one recommended by the Kodiak Volunteer
Fire Department in case area was annexed. In addition there is a surplus truck
on the Naval Station, a 1953 FWC, and the Borough is the first on the list to
obtain it. The truck is being put on the surplus list because the spare parts
are unobtainable, however the pumping equipment is in good shape and perhaps
can be salvaged. If the Borough ordered a truck through the manufacturer it
would take approximately nine months to a year and it was decided to go ahead
and take the truck because of the long wait. If there is a tax payers suit
it is possible for the officials involved to be stuck with the fire truck.
The cost of the truck was $33,780 plus $1800 for the hose and additional
equipment. On the transportation - the Chairman w as instructed to check all
possible ways of transporting the fire truck and did receive an answer from
the State Ferry System that they would transport it free of charge but must
have a man to drive it on and off the ferry. This was the reason that Chief
Ernie Mills went along, to drive and help inspect the truck. They have asked
nothing but pay for transportation and $15.00 per day per diem which will
amount to about $600 including fuel for the truck, a savings of $1,000 as the
cost for other type of transportation was $1600 and this is a bargain for the
Borough. Possibilities of leasing a building and also of having a building
constructed have been gone over. The cost to write off entire cost of the
truck in one year would be 4.4 mills. Figures were rechecked on the revised
area and not on original fire protection area. All expenditures must come
from the Service Area. Mrs. Springhill reviewed the minutes of the October 17
meeting where Assembly agreed to commit the fire truck to the Borough and she
felt uneasy when we have had such difficulties in passing the ordinance and now
the fire truck is on its way. She felt this is not reason enough to pass the
ordinance. Mr. Barr stated that some 135 petitioners signed stating they were
willing to pay for the fire service, we are obligated to help these people have
a fire protection area. Tars. Horn wanted to know the date of the petition and
felt it was shortly after the annexation election and that it was colored by
this. If the petition were explained more fully now there would be fewer
signers. Mr. Gregory wanted to know what percentage of the signers were real
property owners. Mr. Barr read the information - 17% were owners of real and
personal property and although this small group would not form a mandate this
was on the original smallerrarea. Mrs. Springhill stated that when annexation
was voted down the people outside knew that if they had fire protection they
would have to pay for it and now that the time has come to pay, they no longer
want it. At the request of the Assembly the Chairman drew up a Mutual Aid
Agreement between the two fire departments and this was presented to the City
Council and approved and passed by unanimous vote. This agreement meant the
two departments would combine and help each other. The area newly annexed to
the city is outside the radius of the City Fire Department and could be served
by the Borough Fire Department. It was hoped that the City and the Borough
could come to some agreement on boundaries. Mr. Felton asked if anyone had
talked to the Fire Chief. Mr. Darr said the equipment was recommended by the
local fire department. Mrs. Springhill read from the minutes on recouu«endation
from the Fire Department on equipment. ".r. Felton stated there was a need for
a four wheel drive rather than a two wheel drive. Mr. Barr said that posi-
traction is being put on the rear end of the truck. Originally the Borough was
to have gotten a bank loan here in Kodiak from National Bank of Alaska at 5 1/2%
interest over a five year period, however Hr. Sutliff stated that Mr. Collins
said the loan would have to be at the regular 7 1/2 %. The question was raised
as to whether or not the Assembly can commit the Borough for more than three
years, Mr. Goodman stated the Assembly can sign a contract for the purchase
of the equipment but no other contract can be signed. Mr. Barr stated that the
fire service as provided by the City would be $3,000 a month or $36,000 a year
and for the same amount of money the Borough can purchase their own truck. The
surplus truck offered will probably be sold for about 1% of the acquisition
cost, $300 or $400. The fire truck operation expense depends on negotiation
with the City, whether or not we hire a man and the Fire Chief stated that
;l ! 1 4 2

the Borough could get along without a man for a period of at least a year.
Mrs. Springhill stated that the main intent is that it should be the most
fair and more assessments spread over a larger area; based on what is most
fair to most people, rather than a very high cost to a very few people, Mr.
Felton felt it would be more expensive for the Borough to operate this service
than to contract it from the City. Hr. Arndt stated there had been meetings
with the City and Mr. Goodman replied that the Borough may contract with the city
for an extra man but does not have to. The public hearing was closed and the
Meeting reconvened. Mr. Barr read from the Statutes "the service area may be
established, operated and abolished by the Assembly by ordinance. " - :S long as
the Borough holds this power no - vote is necessary, if :powers'of.the
Assembly are delegated to Service Area Board then an election by the people
in the area approving the ordinance would be necessary. Mrs. Springhill
asked if any reasonable boundary could be drawn up since first there were
objections to the smaller area and now there are objections to the larger area.
She felt the ordinance should be revised and then passed and the other
Assemblymen felt the ordinance should be passed first and then revised. It was
noted that there maybe a law suit against the Borough because of inclusion of
lots that cannot be serviced. The question was called for and the voting was
as follows: Mrs. Springhill NO Mr. Barr YES, Mir. Arndt YES, motion carried
with two to one vote.
VI B. ORDINANCE 68 -28 -0 Rezoning Blocks 36 & 44, East Addn from R -1 to R-2, Petitioners
(Case 209 -A) The case was reviewed. A petition objecting to the rezoning was
presented and read. The objections were as follows: Majority of the homes are'
R -1; availability of additional parking facilities were questioned; adequacy of
the present sewer system was also questioned and stated that Mirror had some
45 houses for sale and this indicated no pressing shortage of housing. 11r.
Arndt moved for the adoption of Ordinance 68 -28 -0, seconded b Mrs. Springhill.
The meeting was recessed and public hearing opened. The recommendation from
P &Z along with the Ordinance was read. Mrs Barbara Johnson asked how the
Church can sign for rezoning. Mr. Barr said the Church can sign if authorized
by the Board, and in a rezoning no objection was voiced by the Attorney.
Mrs. Johnson stated that she had help circulate the petition and the main
objection was that people might come in now and build R -2 residences that would
not meet with the code of the ones that are presently built. She asked also
if people would be allowed to build on 50' lots instead of 100' as the present
owners had to do. She was concerned particularly with the undeveloped property.
Mr. John Stewart stated he lives in )31k 44 and most of the people there have
two lots but some are only 50° fronts. He felt this was spot zoning as the
area in question is R -1 and is surrounded by an R-1 area. If this rezoning is
passed it will make a finger of R -2 into the 1171 area. Also Block 44 has only
two lots that are developed. Mr. Stewart further stated that his house represent
a major investment and that he has seen some areas with duplexes stuck in or
rental areas in residential areas that are literally shacks. The main xsason
he bought where he did was because it was zoned R-1. Mr. Schott if one wishes
to build R -2 and thereby raise value of the land and raise taxes on property,
this would actually work in reverse for people already there. There should be
a certain amount of security for a period of time that the zoning would remain
the same as when the people purchased and built on it Mrs. Andrich stated
one reason for buying their house was that it was zoned R -1 and she felt that
people wishing to live in an R-2 area should buy in that area. Mrs. Johnson
stated Mr. Anderson has earnest ;honey on his house and feels that the selling
point was an apartment in the house. Mr. Stewart feels the recommendation
from P &Z is invalid. 1'ir. Barr stated that these rezonings are to be for the
whole area and not only for certain individuals. Nrs. Springhill felt it was
bad to rezone after an area has been established. Mr. Baumann, a member of
the Latter Day Saints Church, stated the Church is being taxed for the lots
and that the petition was never broughtbefore the Branch Presidency. Public
Hearing closed and meeting reconvened. Mrs Springhill moved that Crdinance•
68 -28 -0 be tabled for a full assembly attendance. Mr. Arndt seconded; the
question was called, motion passed by unanimous roll call vote. This action
was taken as the Objection Petition was signed by owners of more than 20% of
area involved and requires a unanimous vote by all members of the Assembly.
C. Ordinance No. 68 -27 -0 Rezoning Lot 2A, USS 3098 from Unclassified to Business
and Lot 1, USS 3098 from Unclassified to Public Use, Felton & Tenny (Case 207 -A)
Ordinance was read by title only. Mrs. Springhill asked that the recommendation
from P &Z, October 9, 1968, be read. Mrs. Springhill moved for the adoption of
Ordinance 68 =27 -0, seconded by Pair. Arndt. Meeting recessed and public hearing
was opened. There were no objections. Public hearing was closed; meeting
reconvened. The question was called for, motion carried by unanimous roll
call vote.

Arndt. The meeting was recessed and public hearing opened. Pair. Chase asked
if collection would be made by the City or the Borough. He was informed that col -
1ectio h would- betaken by the Borough although may be contracted through the
City. The city did install the lines. Mr. Gregory asked if the property
owners would be assessed for the lines all' ready: installed.. Mr. Barr said
yes if the Borough had to buy them from the City. It was stated that the origi-
taLcosb would proba31y bx: pro -rated over a period of a year. There are
about 30 users and so far the cost is about $10,000 divided among the users
would be about $330 a lot. The installation cost would go to all owners
involved but administration costs only to users of the water. Mr. Keiser
stated that when it comes to an agreement with the city the Borough should
keep in mind that perhaps if a water shortage oiti rred the City might turn
the water off. Mr. Barr said that if an agreement cannot be reached the
whole thing will have to fold up. Public hearing was closed, meeting re-
convened and the question was called for: Motion carried by unanimous roll
call vote.
F. Amended Ordinance 68 -25 -0 Amending Personnel Regs. The ordinance was read
by title only. Mrs. Springhill moved for adoption of Ordinance 68 -25 -0, seconded

questioned why the Borough did not have to pay time and a half for over time.
Suggested that this should be checked out by the Attorney. Public hearing
closed and meeting reconvened. Mrs.. Springhillinoved_to amend her motion to
include this is sugject. to final approval of the Attorney with regard to
overtime pay. Mir. Arndt seconded the amended motion, the question was called

ordinance be drawn up, seconded by Mir. Arndt. The question was called for;
motion carried by unanimous roll call vote.
VIII OLD BUSINESS
A. First Reading of Ordinance 68 -29 -0 Creating Tax Deferments for Senior Citizens.
Mrs. Springhill reviewed the ordinance. Mr. Chase felt that this would be
unfair to the people inheriting the property to have to pay the taxes and buy
back the house along with paying an inheritance tax. It was pointed out that
only those senior citizens applying for this deferment would be so treated.
