V CORRESPONDENCE AND APPEARANCE REQUESTS
A. There were no requests at this time, however Mr. Best introduced Mr.
Dick Fischer and Mr. Del Black, Appraiseis,who will be taking care of the
re- assessing of the Borough.
VII PLANNING & ZONING ITEMS
A. Recommendation from P &Z re Rezoning Blocks 36, 44, 45, 43, 40, 46 & 47,
East Addn. , from R -1 to R7-2 (Case 209-D): ' The recommendation fran the
Planning and Zoning Commission was read stating that this seems to be in
the best interest of the connunity and would be in line with the Comprehensive
Plan and land use of 1999 as this area is scheduled for medium density.
Mrs. Hajdu moved that an ordinance be drawn rezoning Blocks 36, 44, 45, 43,
40, 46 & 47, Fast Addn., from R -1 to R -2, seconded by Mr. Arndt.
Mrs. Springhill stated that she had assumed that P &Z would have a public
hearing on this before it was brought before the Assembly. She had talked
with several members of the Commission and it appeared that the Commission
felt there was an urgency about this case and since they had held one public
hearing on the original case decided not to hold another one. Mrs. Springhill 's
objections to hearing the case at this time were the same as she had stated
before,. that she did not know if the people living in the area had been
advised. It was noted that the people are given individual notice as required
by law and that the Assembly is required to hold a public hearing whereas
the Planning & Zoning Commission has an option as to whether or not they hold
a public hearing. Mrs. Hajdu stated that she was not aware of any urgency
in the mattes and in fact there is none. Mr. Bullock felt that the public
hearing should not be held on the same night that the ordinance was voted
on for passage. It was noted that this does not necessarily have to be voted
on at the same meeting in which the public hearing is held. It was also
noted that no urgency was expressed by the Borough Office and that P &Z in not
holding a public hearing was just exercising its option. Mrs. Hajdu withdrew
her motion with consent of the Second. Mrs. Hajdu moved that this case be sent
back to P &Z and that P &Z hold a preliminary public hearing seconded by W. Arndt.
Motion passed by a unanimous voice vote.
Kodiak Assembly Meeting - January 16th, 1969 Page 2
B. Recommendation from P &Z re Don Slater Building Permit (Case 14 -B). The
recommendation was read stating that on March 12, 1968 a second notice had
been sent to Mr. Slater advising him of the violation of the zoning ordinance
in that he had permitted the third unit of the dwelling to be occupied from
time to time in an R -2 Zone. It was recommended by the P &Z Commission that
the Assembly authorize the Borough Attorney to start legal action against
Mr. Slater. Mrs. Springhill moved that the Attorney be authorized to start
legal action against Mr. Slater regarding his violation of the zoning ordi-
nance, seconded by Mrs. Hajdu. The question was called for and the motion
was passed by unanimous voice vote.
C. Recommendation from P &Z re Junkyard Ordinance. The memo was read stating
that the Commission recommended the drafting of a junkyard ordinance. Mrs.
Hajdu felt that while we might need such an ordinance it needs to be designed
for the entire area and unless it can be written so it would apply for a
specific area it might be difficult to enforce. There are many ordinances
now that are unenforceable and this might be just one more. Mr. Best stated
that there are ways to limit area where junkyards would be permitted and it
would possibly be tied in with zoning. It was questioned if there is not
already a section in the zoning ordinance covering junkyards and although
there is a section it does not spell out the areas nor the definition of
Junk and this proposed ordinance will do that. Mr. Barr stated that he had
talked with Mr. Stansbury on this proposed ordinance and it was the intention
that within the villages and certain areas that the villages would be allowed
to administer the ordinance and that the Borough would not step in unless
a complaint was made by the Village Council to the Borough. It was noted
also that other things would be spelled out'" the minimum distance from a
State Highway and that a screen should be placed in front. The assembly
members were asked to review the ordinance again and to submit written
recommendations at which time they will be reviewed and consolidated for
further consideration and discussion. This was tabled until further study
could be made.
D. Tentative Approval of Final Plat, Russian Creek Subdivision (Case 198 -B).
These plats were just received and therefore were brought to the Assembly
for tentative approval subject to the approval of P &Z and the engineer.
It was felt that by bringing this out of order it would establish a
precedent. This was tabled until Planning & Zoning and the Engineer have
approved.
E. Tentative Approval of Final Plat, Bells Flats Subdivision (Case 196 -A)
These plats have not been to P &Z and therefore this was also tabled until
such time as reviewed by the Commission and the Engineer.
F. Time Extension request on Final Plat, Baptist Mission (Case 120 -A) A letter
has been received from Mr. William W. Stone asking that a time extension
be granted beyond the deadline of January 19, 1969, since all requirements
have not yet been met. Mrs. Springhill moved that the Baptist Mission be
given a time extension as requested on the final plat, seconded by Mrs. Hajdu.
The question was called for and the motion •.ssed by unanimous voice vote.
The extension was granted to one year from this date, January 16th, 1970.
VIII OLD BUSINESS
A. Proposed Boundary Changes. A memo from Mr. Best to the Assembly members
was read in which it was stated that the Chairman's power to veto any no-
tion or was being exercised to veto the drafting of a resolution to
reduce the size of the Borough. Mr. Bullock asked that Mr. Best read the
section of the Attorney General's opinion that so stated and it was so done.
Title 7 was read "the Borough Chairman may veto any ordinance or resolution
of the assembly, but his veto may be overridden by two- thirds of all the
votes to which the assembly is entitled on the question." Section 07.25.080
concerning the documentatLons necessary to initiate a hearing on this matter
was read. It was further stated that the documents were not in line with the
Title and that if these were properly prepared they should be sent with a
pc.;itinn ten +hc' Tnr•A1 Tff'irrt Tannry Mr, Rt711rc,k stat d that the bn1nd ry
commission can waive those requirements for the documents. Mrs. Hajdu
stated that this petition can be drafted by an individual and it is not
necessary for the Borough Assembly to do it. She further stated that before
the motion to override the Chairman's veto was made she would like to say
that the primary reason for wanting the boundary changed was the excessive
cost of supporting the village schools and the study she had made during
the past week would indicate just the opposite. Mrs. Springhill stated that
1 g a q 2 -4)
KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH ASSEMBLY Iti1RFTING - JANUARY 16th, 1969 page three
she would like to project these figures into the future about ten years
and she further felt that Mrs. Hajdu was assuming that PL874 would always
be on hand and in the event we have a large improvment program these figures
are not going to cover them. sirs. Hajdu stated that there has been approxi-
mately $250,000 to $300,000 profit taken from the villages over what was
expended for the villages. The Ouzinkie school would cost about $200,000 so
we are notgoing to lose anything. Mrs. Springhill stated that the School
files show that the Village. schools are costing $975.00 per student while
the city schools are costing $475.00 per student. She asked if Mrs. Hajdu
felt the villages are bringing in more than $975.00 and was the profit being
based on PL 874. It was stated that the PL 874 is only a portion of monies
received. It was further noted that these figures are probably an under-
statement as the Johnson O'Malley and Title I funds have not been included
for a period of two years. Johnson O'Malley Funds are being spent to support
the vocation school, but we would not have that money if it were not for the
fact that the villages are part of the Borough. Mrs. Springhill further
stated that the School Board is working to keep up improvements in the
Village schools. Mr. Barr stated that this was not true as Emil Norton,
President of the School Board, stated at a joint -work session that the
High School would come before any additions or improvements of the Village
Schools. 1'1r. Barr further stated that he felt the village schools need
improvement. Mrs. Hajdu stated that the School Board now has developed a
capita 1 improvement program for village schools. There has been additional
revenue but this was used to support other Borough programs, such as the
Hospital and the Vocational School, all areas have given more than their
share. To say that we have made no improvements in two years although we
have taken their tax money for five years and now we want to throw them out
would be unfair. t1rs. Hajdu read from her report giving the figures that
would support this. In addition to the money that the school receives
directly, the Borough received monies from the Raw fish tax and taxes from
real and personal property. It was pointed out that the real and personal
property tax will not decrease next year as some of the land will be taxed
then instead of just the houses. The village contribution to the tot -
Borough budget was brought out: 1964 -65 - 100 %; 1965 -66 - 44 %; 196f :.7 -
23 %; 1967 -68 - 30% and 1968-69 - 12% which is the percentage of the popula-
tion in the Villages. Mrs. Hajdu further stated that it would be doing a
grave disservice to deprive the Borough of revenues by reducing the size
of the Borough and the Villages would also lose as the Capital improvement
program would be delayed. The people have already paid for these improvements
and they should have them. Mrs. Springhill stated she would like to submit
that the Borough has two other powers that it is not giving to the Villages.
These two areas are Health and Planning & Zoning and further submitted that
this would cost a great deal of money. Mrs. Hajdu replied that not as much
service is given in these areas because of the lack of personnel and the
services aren"t as badly needed. It was pointed out that the Borough does
furnish Planning and Zoning services to the villages on all commercial
buildings and on any others that are requested. The Building Inspector
does make inspection trips, regularly on commercial buildings and will
inspect all others when requested to do so. r4rs. Hajdu further pointed out
that although it was not included in her report it was noted that the
Borough is taking a loss of over $100 per student on the youngsters that
are being taken in from the Naval Station. It would make a new building
far less necessary if the six classrooms used for this increased number
could be used for the Borough Students. Mrs. Springhill said this is a
lever to hold over the Naval Station that unless the Station gives
assistance to obtain PL 815 they can have their children back. Mrs. Hajdu
stated that a study should be made to see where these costs can be cut back.
Ieople are leaving the area because of the high taxes in the city, these
expenses need to be examined or will be adding to the burden of the people
in the city by cutting out the villages at this time. tars. Springhill asked
how many times the Building Inspector had made trips to the Villages to
bring the building standards up to those faced by the people in the City.
She was advised that there have been several trips concerning one particular
building. i4rs. Springhill asked about the number of condemnations in the
villages and was informed that there were none. "SI:.e.stated_that there were
about night ouch cacPs in thc. City_ However, it waa poiutcd out that those
were not private homes but rentals and would fall under commercial type
building code. It was stated that if a complaint was received from the
Villages that a structure was hazardous and presenting treats to the
neighbors the building inspector would go to inspect them. Mr. Bullock
stated that the City Resolution was based on the statutes which state that
transportation in the Borough shall be of such a unified nature as to
facilitate the` communication and exchange necessary for the development
'" ?
KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH ASSEMBLY MEETING - JANUARY 16th, 1969 Page Four
of an integrated local government and a community of like interests.
No other Borough has schools as far away as we do. The Ketchikan Borough
has four schools within twenty miles that are State operated. Mr. Bullock
further stated that we do not have cultural unity with the villages. Mrs.
Hajdu replied that we are more closely tied with the villages than the
State or Federal Government would be. mt. Bullock further stated that other
boroughs are tied together by roads and there are no roads out to these areas.
Transportation is easier in other boroughs and far less expensive. It was
further stated that the City petition asked that the boundaries be reduced
to the road system. Hr. Bullock also stated that the Borough cannot begin
to provide full educational service to the Villages and to the schools here
in the City. Mr. Kelly Simeonoff stated that most of the people in the Villages
are not educated enough have the educational ability to form their own
Borough. He could not see where or why the Borough would deprive the
Villages of something they have already paid for and also the Comprehensive
Plan would be lost. The villages have benefited the City by paying sales
taxes and other taxes and also by buying from the merchants here in Kodiak
for all their needs. Why deprive these people of the services unless you
are ready to compensate for money they have paid in. Mr. Bullock pointed out
that there are other villages that are ruunnirg. :their own schools,
hiring their own teachers and generally running their villages. Be
went on to say that the Borough is keeping the villages in the colonial status
by saying we need your money but we cannot help you. Mr. Simeionoff felt the
Villages would lose much more under the State than under the Borough even
though all the monies expended does not return to the Villages. Mrs.
Springhill stated that at the time we began the borough it was requested that
the villages not be included and it was her understanding that the villages
were actually refused but they were forced upon the Borough. Other Boroughs
refused and they were not forced to take them. Now the Borough is faced with
the responsibility of building schools and we are not moving forward on our
part of the bargain. The most obvious reason is cost and the people who are
paying the bulk of cost are in the city - there is a study being conducted
now on the high costs. She further stated that the people represented by
the Assembly and City Council have questioned the high cost and have suggested
that perhaps by reducing the boundary it might reduce the cost and the need
for building this new school. Perhaps federal help may be obtained as it
must be paid for in some way. Mrs. Hajdu stated that the school will not
be paid for by depriving the Borough of about $100,000 per year from the villages.
The President of Larsen Bay City Counci, Rev. Coffman stated that Larsen Bay
was not happy over the amount of money that was spent on the school and it
was not .a satisfactory cor.E truction job. For the tremendous amount of money
there is a continual maintenance job and the costs of flying a man out to
re}air this because the job was not properly done in the first place. There
is an immediate need for water - 80% of the people are getting water from
contaminated: sources. As far as the building inspector coming out - it was
felt that there are many other areas that are being missed, providing homes,
soil erosion and there are washouts in some places where the children are
unable to go to school. The people of Larsen Bay would appreciate a study
being made. Mr. Bullock stated it was felt that Larsen Bay needed help but
we could not begin to find out what should be done without adding more taxes
to the City and this area. A sales tax was tried in order to help divide the
cost but it was voted down by the Villages. Since the Borough cannot begin
to furnish the Villages the service it should then the Borough should be
working in an area where it would have meaningful success. Rev. Coffman
stated that the people of Larsen Bay are anxious to own their on property,
some have lived on this land all their lives and yet do not own the land,
and also the houses are taxed. It was noted that the water and sewage system
for the Villages comes under the U. S. Public Health not under the Borough or
State. Sabbath stated he had not had an opportunity as yet to study the
report. He felt the Borough has done much good in trying to work out the
village problems and Participating in Bove mrnt at a local level has been
advantageous to the Villages. He further stated that there seems to have
been a lot of verbalism going into an area where someone could take a look
and see what the costs are; someone should sit down and take a close look at
the money situation. Mr. Fields stated that originally the boundaries
were to be everything this side of the Naval Station as it was felt that this
was all the area that could be taken care,/ wever the State dismissed the
local boundary commission report entirely. It was stated by t'tr. Barr that
the fact can't be refused that the Villages have been in the Borough now
for five years and this cannot be changed. The Borough has received a great dea;

of money from the villages over and above what has been spent on the
Village schools to date. It was further stated by Mr. Barr that he
felt it was wrong to ask Juneau to come tell us what is wrong, we should
solve our own problems. There is one school that is in need of improvements
and Larsen Bay School ground is a garbage dump with large holes and oil
and junk in it. It was improved slightly because of the fact that the
Larsen Bay people were able to get a "cat'' in there and plow it over some-
what. Take the Village of Port Lions, for example under BIA all lots
would have been restrictive deeds, the people had no way of making a living
and BIA would have placed this Village back on the dole. Port Lions has
been helped by the efforts of some of the people and the Borough Assembly
and now the people own their own land and have a cannery for employment.
The Borough has been a big factor in this development. Mr. Bullock
stated that actually the Wakefield Fisheries have had a big hand.
Mr. Barr commented on the need for water in Larsen Bay and suggested that
a petition be drawn up for a water service area, this is a means by which
the Borough can use to give this facility. If the Assembly sees fit and
the village wants it this could be delegated to the village to run like
any other services. i•'Ir. Jackson said the answer is one government for
it is too expensive for 8,000 people to support two governments.
There was no action taken at this time.
A. Ratification of Mental Health Center Board. The Board members were named:
Rev. Edward Richards, Chairman; Richard Montague, Vice Chairman; Sister Mary
Leo, Secretary; Larry, Craig, Dr. Bob Johnson, Rev. Robert Childs, Mrs.
Marion Soule, Ingaborg Nyland, and Dr. Blake McKinley. Mr. Bullock stated
that another member from the outlying areas should be appointed to the
Board. Mr. Barr moved that the Assembly ratify the nine names submitted by
the Mental Health Board and requested the Borough Chairman to add one
additional name for future ratification from outside immediate central area.,
seconded by Mrs. Springhill. The question was called for and the motion
passed by unanimous voice vote.
B. First Reading of Ordinance 69 -2 -0, Establishing a Centralized Treasury.
The ordinance was read stating that all school money shall be deposited in
a centralized treasury with all other Borough Money. It was further stated
that this was requested by the School Board in 1967, but it was felt at that
time the Borough did not have the staff to handle this transaction. Mrs.
Springhill asked if all the vouchers would be paid by the Borough. It was
noted that the School will sign any checks less than $500.00 but all checks
over that amount will need one Borough signature. This centralized
treasury will makes the audit reporting much easier and was recommended
at the time of the last audit. It was felt that this would improve the
communications between the Borough and the School Board. Mrs. Hajdu moved
for adoption of Ordinance 69-2-0 in first reading, seconded by Mr. Arndt.
The question, was called for and the motion passed by unanimous roll call
vote.
Supplemental
C. Resolution 69 -1 -R certifying the /Board of Equalization. The resolution was
read. Mrs. Hajdu moved for adoption of Resolution 69 -1 -R, seconded by Mr.
Barr. The question was called for and the motion passed by unanimous roll
caZr vote.
D. Resolution 69 -2 -R Establishing Payment in Lieu of Taxes from The City.
The resolution was read stating that the amount due in lieu of taxes is
$134,189.17. i1rs. hajdu moved for adoption of Resolution 69 -2 - -R, seconded
by Mr. Barr. The question was called for and the motion passed by unanimous
roll call vote.
E. Consideration of Building Requirements on Miller Point, 1st Addn., and
2nd Addn.; Kadiak, 1st Addn. According to the .regulations of this sale lots
are to be improved within two years after access roads are built. It was
noted that people that wanted to build in this area have done so and some
have put in roads thereby improving not only their lots but the others as
well. Since this restriction was put on at the time of the sale it was
felt the requirement should be left on. It was suggested that road
construction be considered a fair share toward improving the property.
i?r. Fields suggested that as many restrictions as pc €sible be removed as
there is not much building going on in Kodiak at this time. If the
KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH ASSEMBLY MEETING - JANUARY 16, 1969
X CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
Page Six
restrictions are to be withdrawn a resolution would have to be brought
before the Assembly for a vote. iir. Barr moved that this be tabled_
until the next meeting, seconded by Mrs. Springhill. 1 lotion passed by a
unanimous voice vote. This will give_ the Assembly an opportunity to
study the "s3i a on.
F. Disposal of Foreclosure Property Noted that under the Statutes the manner
of disposal should be determined and the people must be notified in writing
as to the disposal of their property. Mrs. Hajdu moved that in view of the
fact that we recognize that we have property on the foreclosure list for
disposal that the Borough Chairman be requested to bring each individual
piece of property before the Assembly for determining as to the method of
disposal under the existing ordinance. Seconded by Mars. Springhill. The
question was called for and the motion passed by a unanimous roll call vote.
G. Approval of Tax Adjustments - P68-32, P68 -33; P68.34; P68 -35: There was a
question brought up on P68 -34 concerning whether or not the tax figure was
correct. Mrs. Springhill moved for approval of Tax Adjustments P68 -32;
P68 -33 and P68 -35 ;(deleting P68 -34), as recommended by the Assessor. Seconded
by Mrs. Hajdu, the motion passed by unanimous roll call vote.
H. First Reading Ordinance 69 -1 -0 Approving the Budget for Fire District No. 1.
Ordinance read and it was noted that the figures were the same as presented
at a previous meeting. Mr. Barr moved for the adoption of Ordinance 69 -1 -0
in the first reading, seconded by r-ir. Arndt. The question was called for
and the motion passed by a unanimous roll call vote.
A. Department of Highways, Charles Matlock: Mr. Matlock called and stated he
was in receipt of the resolution concerning the sncw removal. He further
stated that steps were being taken to remedy the situation and bring it back
to satisfactory standard. If the Assembly has any questions Mr. Matlock
would be willing to make a trip down to the next meeting to answer them.
It was noted that the second road system has been talked about several times
but so far nothing has been done. It was suggested that a letter be written
to Mr. Matlock asking about the promised improvements.
B. Anton Larsen Bay Road: A letter has been received from the Port Lions'
City Council with a copy of the petition sent to the Governor. This petition
was signed by over 50% of the adult population and endorsed the extension
and maintenance of the Anton Larsen Bay Road and further petitioned that the
road be extended to a point where boats may reach it even when the bay is
frozen. Mr. Fields stated that this comes under maintenance and was in the
program for this year and should be checked out.
C. Fire District Election: It was noted that the Fire District did pass and
the proper documents will be prepare& for ratification of the election and
presented at the next meeting. Mr. Bullock asked what was the Assembly's
thin1 about providing for a Board that would handle the general running
of the fire district. It was decided that this would require another election
and so was tabled for the time being. The fire truck is not ready as some
of the equipment has not arrived as yet.
D. Ordinance No. 67 -11 -0 Penalty for Nonfiling and Payment of Personal Property
Tax: It was brought out that some of the penalty bills are amounting to
such small sums that it costs more to mail these out than the bills bring
in and therefore it was suggested that any amounts less than $.50 be waived.
i4rs. Hajdu moved that the Ordinance be amended to waive penalty and. interest
on personal_ property late filings when such penalty and interest amounts
to less than $1.00 (one)., seconded by firs. Springhill. The motion was passed
by a unanimous voice vote.
E. Letter from Don Berry re Municipal League Representation: The letter was
read stating that according to the League Constitution, "Any incorporated
Alaska City, organized Borough, or Federally incorporated community shall
be eligible for membership in this League." It was suggested that the
Villages be sent letters advising them of the fact they are members and
that the dues are paid by the Borough. It was also suggested that back -up
information should be sent out at this time.

F. FIRE At Akhiok, Mike Farsovitch: Mr. Farsovitch will be in Kodiak on the
21st of this month to talk with the insurance agent.
G. First Addition Port Lions Alaska Subdivision, Approval has been received
from the School Board and Port Lions City Council for the Classification
and Planning Report and these have been submitted to the Division of Lands.
H. R. W. Fischer Contract: Some changes have been made in the original draft
and the contract wi 1 be drawn up and brought before the Assembly for approval.
XI LSEEMELY C'.'MEWS
A. Mrs. Hajdu re Re-apportionment: Mrs. Hajdu stated that she would like the
Assembly to give some consideration to a problem in that the weighted vote
makes others on the Assembly feel threatened and the fact that there are
three to two possibly makes the others feel threatened. The present population
is 51%-49% almost half and half, perhaps there should be a third member from
the City Council and do away with the weighted vote. This would go along
with the Supreme Court ruling of one man:cne vote. This however would need
a ruling from the Supreme Court. Mr. Goodman stated that this is back in
Court and a decision should be coming down within three or four weeks.
A request should be made to the court that a copy of the decision be sent
to the Borough. Tz. Goodman stated that.if.'the legislation were passed
it would take 60% of the voters of the last election to vote and then the
governments would be combined. Mrs. Hajdu stated that we should be certain
before unification. Mr. Goodman stated that there is no limit established
by the State Constitution between the starting and the time it is passed and
the joint government would have all powers as given under the State Constitut•inn_
B. Mr. Barr re Water Line: Pair. Barr stated that after the election Cecil McCord
came in to see him with a petition signed by nine residents in the new water
District. These people are without water and would like to have a temporary
line started as soon as possible. The contractor has been contacted and
cost estimates received. Mr. Best stated that a meeting must be set up with
Mr. Goodman and the City and something worked out and the costs brought back
to the Assembly. It was noted that the temporary pipe will be buried as
any other type would involve too much keeping it from freezing. This problem
will be worked on and something should be established by Monday.
XII AUDIENCE COMMENTS
A. Mr. T.T. Jackson re Building: Mr. Jackson stated that there is a lack of
building going on in Kodiak and none is expected due primarily to the
building code. He suggested that the building code should be more flexible
He also stated that some way should be found to cut back on the cost and
the government should be adjusted to fit the people.
B. Mr. Fields re Budget: Mr. Fields asked when the budget will be ready. He
was informed that the School Budget is to be presented by April 1st and a
public hearing will be held and then the Borough Budget will be ready.
