Under Item F line 3 should be Hospital Board rather than School Board. Page 5 Item B line 17 it is Block 44 instead of Lot 44. Mr. Best stated that the prices quoted on the FireTrick were not correct and the minutes of this date are to show the correct amount rather than correction on the previous meeting. The price of the truck is $33,915 and equipment is $5,676 for a total of $39,591.00. Mrs. Springhill moved for acceptance of the minutes of the regular meeting of November 21, 1968 as amended and asked for unanimous consent. There were no objections and it was so ordered. A. School Board - Regular Meeting 11/25/68 - Mr. Best commented on Item 3, page 2 concerning the application for Advance Planning Funds for the new Senior High. This item had been on the Assembly Agenda but a telephone call was received fran Mr.f.R. Dukee in the afternoon, noting that it would be illegal to receive the money until the plans are completely drawn up. Mr. Outitta suggested that this be handled in two phases - Part I would be the feasibility and space requirement study and Part II would be the drawing of the Plans. This would allow the Borough to obtain a portion of the money sooner and use to pay the Architect. It was stated that this would probably be ready for action at the next meeting. Mrs. Hajdu questioned whether or not the Borough had received the two page letter from Mr. Haakenson of Old Harbor giving detailed justification for rental charged to the School. The letter had not been received at the Borough and Mrs. Hajdu stated she would have a copy made and sent over for the Borough's consideration. B.

Letter from Claud M. Hoffman re time extention on 2nd Addn, Port Lions, Alaska Subdivision. The letter was read stating that an extention had been requested from Barr & Associates for reasons set forth in Mr. Barr's letter to Mr. Hoffman. Due to a delay on completion of Bells Flats Subdivision and winter time work increasing the period required and the fact that lots in Bells Flats are needed the request was submitted. Mr. Hoffman had no objections providing no other extensions were requested. Mrs. Hajdu asked whether delaying the survey would allow to be put on sale as planned. It was stated it would as the First Addition has not been put on sale as yet as Mr. Best has been trying to complete the agreement with the natives. The agreement is generally acceptable but the details have not been worked out as yet. Mrs Hajdu moved that the time extension be granted with the provision' that this be the only extention. Seconded by Mrs. Springhill. Mr. Barr abstained from voting. The notion carried by unanimous voice vote. ASSEMBLY MEETING - DECEMBER 5, 1968 Page 2 B. Letter from Roy Madsen re dismissal of court in tncticn - Jam Trailer Court - The let::' x was read asking if the Borough had any objections to the dismissal of the Order granting the injunction in this natter. Mr:s. Hajdu asked about the Affidavit and that it be read. There was no copy of the Affidavit and Mrs. Hajdu stated her lawyer had enclosed the Affidavit along with her letter and she felt that the Assembly should see the Affidavit. Mrs. Hajdu suggested that this item be tabled until the Affidavit submitted by Mr. Jackson could be reviewed by the Assembly. Since a copy of the needed paper was in Mrs. Hajdu's office it was decided that someone should obtain same. arid return to the meeting. VT PUBLIC HEARINGS A.

The taxes will bs a lien om th o property and just allows the person to' continue to live in , his home under conditions of defere ent. Mr. Stansbury asked if there would be penalties incurred over a period of several years if the taxes were: deferred and was infort that this was not the intent. It was noted that at the pm-sent mill rate this would be about two cents on the dollar. The public hearing was closed and the meeting reconvened.

Mrs. Hajdu stated that this seems to be in the area that upgrading is needed and that this action would reduce the zoning. The question was asked why this case could not be handled as a variance as had been done in other cases. The zoning map was reviewed and discussed. Mr. Barr stated that he was more in favor of a variance as this would give better boundaries. Mrs. .Sprinc,h 11 stated :that there were no objections from anyone in the area.

Mrs. Hajdu wanted to knew if this rc - napping would cut clan on the amount we are paying the Assessor. It was noted that it would cut dawn on the day to day time.

Kodiak Island Assembly Meeting - December 5, 1968 Page 3 VII PLANNING & ZONING ITEMS A. Ordinance 68 -28 -0 rezoning Blocks 36 & 44, East Addn, from R -1 to R -2, Case 209 -A) Mie Barr nesiadthaf :diJ one '68 -28-0 be removed-in= the table for action.. All were in favor and thenlaciion. was so taken. A formal hearing could not be opened but anyone wishing to be heard on this matter would be heard. Mr. Oscar Dyson stated that he built in this area in 1957 1958 and the area was ' - residential at that time. He further stated that his taxes have doubled in the last few years and he now pays $1206.29 a year, or about $100 per month in taxes. He is looking for same relief and by being able to rent out an apartment in the basement he would have some help in carrying the freight. He noted that there are several places with apartments in and this rezoning is merely a means of legalizing this practice. The intent is certainly rot to lower the value of the houses but some help must be obtained or he will be forced to sell his home. Pars. Springhill asked if Mr. Dyson was proposing rezoning just on the basis of high taxes. Mr. Dyson's reply was tlhrat, at present there is only a four month fishing season previously there had been eight or vine months of fishing. It was noted that this would probably not lower taxes but would give the owners a means of helping to pay the taxes. Mr. Anderson stated he was one of the original petitioners and feels that re ng the only solution. He felt this would be the only way for the property owners to get their heads above water. He noted that a person rust build according to the Building Code and adequate parking n ct be provide . Ps far as the sewer system is concerned, he pointed out that there are several large dormitory type buildingsgoang up and one or two more families would certainly not put tench of a strain on the system. Mr. Joiner stated he lives in the Block concerned and that he is in favor of the rezoning/ Mr. Sac_ uinetti also voiced going along with the rezoning. Mr. We Britton stet. that although he does not live in the area he is in favor oftne rezoning as Block 36 is connected to an R-2 area. The area has several R-1 dwelliage and he felt that a few people building R -2 dwel.lingswould not lower the value and make it more unattractive. The building code will protect the people in the area as parking area would have to be provided and also the rqu re footage is taken into consideration. There is a shortage of nice aeartuan s available; there are quite a few that should be eliminated and the Daly way to lower prices is to meet the supply and demand. These will have to be torn cicMn and other units built. The houses that are for sale are priced quite high and the average person moving into Kodiak cannot afford to pay such prices. Mr. Stewart stated that he was at the last meeting at which the peblic hearing was held and wished to add some statements. He stated that some people in the area have two lots and the one that has property above him in a position to go to duplex dwelling is Idr. Anderson. Mr. Stour rt Fans no objection to Mr. Anderson having an apartment and renting . it out but is concerned about the undeveloped lots. Between his land and Mr. Best's there are sin lots and he can see no possible way the lots can go except for duplexes. He could not see how this would mower taxes. But he does feel that if his house was for sale and an individual wanted a single residence he would lone the sale because no one wants to buy among duplexes. He felt he had eo insurance that these lots will have beautiful homes or apartments s on the Fir. Sutliff owns two lots and a lady in Anchorage owns two and Mr. Stewart felt these people were certainly not going to build a house there. .'eels that duplexes will be built as low` . cost housing. Mr. Best s that with the objections of 20% of the area concerned it will take al e22Leaaeive vote by all five members of the Assembly. Mr. Britton did tat: to Mr. Beck who owns 21,668 square feet in the area and Mr. Beck has no objection to rezoning to R -2; his only objection to itiaving duplexes would be if they were not owner occupied. The objection petition was signed by people owning 20% of the square footage and it is a fact that 20% is a minority. Mr. Britton further stated that R -2 would allow apart mcnts and business and owners would have more protection under an R -2 zoning than Rel. The FHA, has recommended there be rezoning whereby an intermingling can be aczanplished. Several towrg in the lower 48 have this, one example is Anchorage and this has proven quite successful. Mrs. Andrich stated that even without Mr. Beck's signature the objection petition still carries more than the 20% required. She stated that they have been in the area for 3!and 1/2 years and knew that the area was zoned R-1 and that this was the prime reason for purchasing a home in this area. Mrs. Hadju mentioned a statemettlwAts Gagnon, that the solution was to throw out all zoning and let the size of the lot determine the use. No zoning should be done for material and econ nic gain. Mrs. Springhill felt that some law should be set up that wouldprohibit any rezoning for a period of five years. Mrs. Springhill asked if Nr. Anderson did in fact have ernest maney on his house and he said no, he did not. Mrs. Hajdu pointed out that owner occupancy can not be gauranteed as even single residence houses are often rented. Parking facilities and building standards are well covered by the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Meeting - December 5, 1968 Page n. Building Code. It is likely that the area will become more congested as there will be more people in an R-2 area, however if the Building Code is followed as it should be this will not be beyond control. Our currn .ity is not going to hold people and bring people in with the high cost of buildirg, unless some source of revenue is offered at the time of buying. We Ze culd have logical rezoning as recommended by FHA and the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Barr feels there should be some areas that are strictly R-1, basic°:lle agrees with Mrs. Hajdu that people objecting fear the change wou=.d result in the property not been taken care of and these fears are justified as we do not have strict and constant enforcement of the building code. Mr. Best stated that we really do try to enforce the ordinances and these are problems that are constantly coming up. According to the 1999 Land Use Plan the aeea is scheduled for medium density. It is difficult to implement, however this is a good opportunity to implement part of it. Mt. Bullock rug es ;l that a larger portion be rezoned instead of just piece meal. An c_rdnance is in the process of revision wherein there would be three R -2 zones. The existing R -1 would become R-2 with over and under units; existing R -2 would have multiple units over and under and side by side; a third R-2 would be outside the city and provide for expando type trailers and pre -fa s. Mrs. Hajdu stated that the planner meant clearly that the Land Use was not to be implemented overnight but to be used as a future plan. The question was called for; vote as follows a Mrs. Springhill NO - Ms. Bullock - Ne - Mr. Ears - YES; Mr. Arndt - YES and Mrs. Hajdu YES. The notion did not pas. Mrs. Hajdu moved that the Assembly initiate rezoning to V -2 : for expanded area to include Blocks 36, 44, 45, 40, 43, 46, 47. Mr. Best stated that the would take some time to complete. The motion was seconded by Mr. Arndt zoning ° passed by unanimous voice vote. III CLD BUSINESS Be Resolution 68 -41 -R Calling for Special Election for Fire Service District The resolution was read setting forth the time and place of election and boundary of the Fire Service District and stating the qualified voters. Mt. Best said he had gone through the Statutes and had sought ad;rise from several sources. He called Mr. Navarre and asked that Mr. Jim Nordale come down to give the Assembly some help on this. Before the Assembly may delegate power to a service area whether operated by 'a Board or Assembly the people must agree that they want this service. The people have to vote on the addition of such power, any new power would have to be essse by the majority of the people. The election will be published on December 9, 1968 and date of election will be January 14, 1969, at East Elementary. Mrs. Hajdu asked what is meant when it states in the statute: that the Assembly has the power to establish a service area. This means that the Assembly may only establish the boundary and the manner in which this will be operated. In some cases Amy be that the service area is determined by type of service, st:ch as a fire service and that same -area. might be suitable for other types of services. Mr. Barr stated that this section of the law seems to be inconsistent with itself. Mr. Nordale said it was not so much inconsis.r-.es but merely a poor choice of words. The whole purpose of a second class borough is to let the voters decide what powers should be adopted. It was stated that the present cost of the fire truck is being borrr.wca from the general fund, it is however being earmarked for the fire service district. Mrs. Hajdu felt that a separate fund should be established and marked Fire Service District. Mrs. Springhill asked that everything be a0 in an orderly and legal fashion and also if it was not necessary to give the mill levy in an ordinance. Mr. Nordale said it was not necessary. Mr. Best indicated that a budget will be coming out before the election. Mrs. Hajdu moved for the adoption of Resolution 68 -41 -R, seconded by Mr. Barr. Mr. Bullock questioned whether or not the Fire Truck is housed properly or i�c: v informed that the truck has been at C2 ' Hall an i^ be taken care of, has„ 0- - wined to insure proper care of hose and equipment. The boundaries for the area will se. the original annexation area and the uestion was raised if the area involved would be within the 1 and 1/2 mile radius as set out by fire raters. This will need to be established at the time of the investigation. Mr. Nordale stated it is the responsibility of the Assembly to determine to the best of its knowledge what area can or cannot be serviced and to establish an area with this consideration. It is much the same services within the city laseee .. some area can be served and some cannot but they are still taxed regardless. KODTAK ISLAM' CECUGH ASSEMBLY SEETING DECE MEP 5, 1968 Page 5 Mrs. Hajdu stated it seemed logical to include the annexation area as there is a highway through although some lots have no access road. Even without houses on these lots the land is valuable because of the tiller. If there is a brush fire and the trees burn then the land loses some of its value, just as if the ee had been a home there. She also felt an elect _on should not be held every time a new service area is needed. Mr. Noca ":e stated that if some areasShora develcpment they should be included, th Assembly will have to exercise its best judgment. Mr. Arndt stated he wished to go on recor0 as being in favor of including the whole area. It was felt that the Borough should be able to hire chainsaws and dozers ae needed for forest fires. '..be Motion was passed by unanimous roll call vote. Mr. Best stated that the Mntu el AId Agreement had been ratified by the City Council and that Ae-embly needed to take final action on it. Mrs. Hajdu moved that the Asscelb y appr_cve the Mutual Aid Agreement with eith. City as approved by the City, Seconded by Mr. BArr. Mrs. Hajdu pointed out that it was said the Base would no ledger respond to fire calls as the City w•Touid be furnishing this service. However, it was noted under the Mutual Aid Agreement the Naval Station eou' ±d respond to calls at the discretion o: the Kodiak Fire Chief. Mrs. Heide asked if the agreement passed new would the Mutual Aid Agree ant be in effeet. Mr. Nordale stated the ag_•e :meat could not be entered into fea e re. protection until the district is estab1 .shed. IIr. Bullock stated that the City is not giving fire protection outside the city limits. The question was called for and the motion passed by un nim,:ous roll call vote, The rest of the equipment for the fire truck will be in possibly next week. Mr. Decker is coming up to be sure that everything is operating properly. A check was made concerning housing for the truck; several places were considered and a letter from Felton & Tenny was submitted for consideration. The rental fee would be - $180.00 per month housing of one truck, hest /lights provided; $360.00 per month for two trucks. This would be for a period of three years or until the Borough builds housing of its own. Mrs. Hajdu moved that Mr. Felton's proposal be accepted, seconded by Mrs. Springhill. Mr. Barr stated that perhaps a lease purchase on long term contract should be asked for rather than building. It was felt that Mt. Felton would no c'o bt go along with this and this would be taken care of in the final wording of a contract. Mrs. Springhill asked what happens if the Fire District i^ set up and Island Lake is annexed - do they just leave the district and cp the rest of the people share the costs? Mr. Nordale stated. that `-his m�jh be the outcome if done just that way and at that time it might be necessary to revise method of handling. It was suggested that the motion be amended to accept ?2:.. Felton's proposal if the fire district is passed. Mrs. Hajdu sc amended her motion with consent of the second. The question was called for and motion passed by unanimous roll call vote. Mrs. hajdu asked if it is necessary to hire a man before June. Since new equipment is coming soon and this will need to be put on the truck and other items to be taken care of it was felt a man should be hired as soon as possibel. The question of salary rate was brought up. and whether or not this would be full time or just part time Mrs. Hajdu stated we needed to know a few more things as to duties, full or part time and what were the recommendations of the Fire Department. Tha Kodiak Fire Department has recommended a full time man. M,r. Goodman stated that if the Borough is to have a separate fire department the salary is up to the Borough however if the one depaxtment is being considered then the salary should be based on the same pay scale as set by the City - this is the same scale that is used for the Pelice Dept. Mrs. Hajdu moved that a figure of $10,200 be budgeted for anneal sa ay of Assisstant to Fire Chief, to be used as estimated figure. Seconded Ly M:. Arndt. After discussion the motion was amended to read "closest fiquee is City pay .ecafe . instead of $10,200." amendment seconded by Mr. Arndt. Motion passed by unanimous voice vote. C. Resolution 68 -42 -R Calling for Special Election for Water Service District The resolution was read with the exception of the legal discription cahich is the same as the original ordinance setting up the water district. M.. i':r:i moved for adoption of Resolution 68 -42 -R, Seconded by Mr. Barr and 'des m titan was passed by unanimous roll call vote. E Letter from Olsen & Sands re Architectural Contract and Approval_ c' Plans for Staff Residence, Hospital. These two items were taken together a::; ono concerns the other. The plans for the Staff Residence were studied and noted that the cost would be about $40 -$50 per square foot. The stuct.;,(o is one store and should net cost that much. Mr. Best had tried to ceetact NEW BUSINESS CHAIRMAN'S REPORT fl KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH ASSEMBLY MEETING - DECEMBER 5, 1968 Page 6 Mr. Swartz but had been unable to do so. It was noted that we.were presented with only a line drawing and this was not good guide lines for Architect. Mrs. Hajdu asked if these plans have to be accepted and felt that an alternate solution sheuld be checked out. Perhaps the residence could be connected to the hospital and the sprinkler system would have to be checked out also. This building is primarily a dormitory and should run only about $22.00 per, square foot, Pars. Hajdu suggested that a ccll be made to Mr. Swartz to sed a different type of construction can he used_ out jeopardizing the funds and then schedule a meeting with the Hosite1 Board to discuss this A notice should be sent to Olsen & Sands to stop work until further notice. D. Letter from Olsen �� ' Sands re Cc�it;r`.c read -• This was tt.:`; wed until action could be t= Ken on r he �+ f Plans.

Motion passed by unanimous voice vote. A. Resolution 68 -40 -R supporting Joint Use of Naval Base Airstrip. The resolution was read setting ic_ti reason for requesting joint use of the Lase airstrip. Mrs. Hajdu moved for adoption of Resolution 68- 40 -- -R, seconded by Mr. Darr. Mr. Goodman stated that the ??-3A and State of Alaska have refused to finance improvements on the hazardous city strip and a local airstrip is necessary. The City is hopirj to obtain a million and a half dollars to be used to upgrade the Naval airfield if that is necessary or to build something that planes can get in and out of safely. The question was called for and motion passed by unanimous roll call vote. B. Determination of 1969 Municipal League Dues. The dues are based on estimated population. Mrs. Hajdu suggested that we take the figure in the Comprehensive Plan and use that to pay our dues as it would be honest and if we are to be- long at all it should be honestly. Mr. Goodman felt the Borough should pay the full price whereas in the past the City has paid half. This makes c! t_i and boroughs members and each have one vote. The question was raised i =the small cities in the Borough could ask someone outside of the city to repr_e sent them? The dues as based on the Comprehensive Plan would be about $3,000. Mrs. Hajdu moved that official population for basis of determining Municipal League dues be established at 8,780 and further that a letter be addressed to the Le =_gue proposing that we pay one half of dues now and the remainder in six months. Seconded by Mr. Barr. The motion passed by un- animous roll call vote. C. Approval of Tax Adjustments R68-45 and R68 -46 Mrs. Hajdu moved to accept the tax adjustments as recommended by the Assessor. Seconded by Hr. Barr. Motion passed by unanimous roll call vote. D. Approval of Expenditures and Vouchers for November. It was noted under Chairman's expenses that about $700 was for the fire service district and will be charged to that account. Hrs. Hajdu suggested that next ro,;nth the fire district costs be taken. out and a break down be done to show where the costs are. It was noted that there were no objections to the Expenditures and Vouchers for November. B. Letter from HUD aids for fallout shelters-. Z,he Assembly mashers were urged to stop by the Borough office and take a look at the infoc_mation. C. Letter from U.S. Department of COmmerce re rain gauge.

City Personnel Plan has a new salary range. This was not in the original budget, however it is felt that the Borough should pay the increase in the Building Inspector's salary. ?ors. Hajdu moved that the additional increese in salary as set forth in. ehe City Pay Scale be approved for payment. Seconded by Hr. Barr. The increase will be $315 annually. The question was called for and the motion passed by unanimous roll call vote. ATTEST: KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH ASSEMBLY NOTING d DECEMBER 5, 1968 Page 7 A. COMMENTS on ACS Trailer Court. A notice appeared in the Mirror that the occupants of the ACS Trailer Court would be given thirty days to vacate. and the land will not be needed until 1970. The date will be known five or six months ahead and that will be plenty of time to announce the vacation date. It was suggested that Pfir.
