seeus. like an awful long time to have to keep paying your bill on

E. Kodiak Island Housing Authority re: Tracts B & E Kadiak AK Subd
Mayor Herrnsteen closed the regular meeting and reconvened as the
Board of Adjustment.
Marlin Knight:(Exec. Dir. of Kodiak Island Housing Authority)
I am here tonight to make a request for an amendment to an earlier
action on July 2, 1981 establishing conditions that this project
be annexed to the City of Kodiak. The request is made on several
accounts. At the time this condition was established the Borough
was unaware that they were to receive approximately seven million
dollars for this Service District. At this point and time the
Housing Authority is ready to present to the Borough satisfaction
of all the conditions that were established at that time. I am
requesting that we will be given the go ahead to allow construction
of this project and that the annexation issue be provided for at
the time of occupancy of this building.
LouAnn 5. Nelson: I can't believe that anyone would not be in favor
of putting in a housing project of this kind. All of us agree that
0 1 1? 1 I :1 7 r
we have a sieat housing shortage. All of u. .gave to agree that we
have a great need for affordable housing. I can't help but think
that any monies that would have to be expended would be re- couped
in these ways.
Walt Ebell: You have here in front of you a three and three - quarter
million dollar project which will alleviate housing shortage in
Kodiak. I would encourage you to drop the annexation requirement
because simply it is no longer necessary. Not only that the
project will provide substantial monies to the service district and
will save the service district those monies.
Elaine Loomis: (Social Worker for KANA) I hope the Borough does not
delay this project any more and let it go forward.
Mary Jo Simmons: I really don't understand why there is so much
problem with even talking about annexation. We do have a service
district. They have said they are going to put in water and sewer.
I would hope that you would look at the common good of the whole
community and let this project go ahead.
Mayor Herrnsteen asked if there was anyone wishing to speak against
the annexation requirement and there were none.
Mayor Herrnsteen entered . letters into the record from the
following who were in favor of the project:
1. Robert Taylor, Pres., Local Union No. 2162(Carpenters & Joiners)
2. Ann Marshall
3. Dan Maciak, Social Worker, State of Alaska
4. Wayne Marshall
5. Carol Hegel, Dir. of Academic Affairs, Kodiak Community College
Mr. Wakefield moved to remove the condition on Tract B & E Kadiak
Alaska Subdivision to be annexed to the City of Kodiak. Seconded
by Mr. Murray. Motion carried 4 -1 with Mr. Arndt casting the NO
vote.

P. Architectural Review Brd. Recommendation re: Arch. Firm
Q. Kodiak Island Hospital Long Range Plan
Dan Van Wierinqen: (Hospital Administrator) Some of the staff would
like to speak on the patient care issue of the present facility.
Bob Breen: (Radiology Dept. Head) Some of the problems I have in
the radiology department, which is a problem of the building, our
whole plumbing system is completly shot. The present x -ray equip-
ment is the smallest possible. It is designed more for a clinic
type setting.
Allison Johnson: (Head Nurse of Acute Care) We have a total bed
capacity of 25 patients. Last summer we had patients in the
library and patients in beds in the hall. This summer I anticipate
we won't even have enough beds to put patients in. I think that
any delay in remodeling and expanding the hospital really jeopar-
dizes medical and nursing care for the community.
Rarbara Carberry: Gentlemen it is inadequate, we need changes, we
need extra room, we need new areas for storage, not only for
nursing storage, but for the Anesthesia Dept., the Surgery Dept.,
X-ray and every place else. You can't afford to wait.
Dr. Halter: The more we procrastinate and delay our building the
worse off we are going to be for the future. I still think the
bottom line is patient care. Therefore, I urge you to act with
utmost haste on this vital issue that is before us.
Mr. Murray moved to send the proposed five year plan back to the
present Hospital Board to be examined by them together with the
management of the hospital and the Borough management and that we
direct them to do this in a period of four months and during this
four months that we see some substantial change in accounts receiv-
able. Seconded by Mr. Arndt. Motion carried by unanimous voice
vote.
The manager suggested that he be instructed to notify the firms
that participated in the RFP that no action is being taken at this
time until the plan is finalized. At a later date we will go out
and readvertise. There was no objection.
