MESSAGES PROM THE BOROUGH MAYOR
Mayor Selby said the assembly needed to review the drawings for
the bike path and noted for the parents of East Elementary School
students that the pedestrian walkway along Von Scheele Way would
be going out to bid shortly. He said rh_e dra'.' n had been
to the Department of Transportation for their review y and approval.
Also, Mayor Selby mentioned there had been a good exchange of
information between Congressman Young and assembly and city
council members when he was in town last Monday. He thought they
had been able to give Congressman Young information that would be
useful in working towards Kodiak's interests in Washington.
In response to a question from presiding officer White, Mayor
Selby said the drawings for the heliport had gone to DOT for
review in the same package as the pedestrian walkway.

ASSEMBLYMEN'S COMMENTS
Assemblyman Merriman commented on the trip the assembly took to
inspect the finished schools in Port Lions and Larsen Bay. He
said the trip had been interesting and gratifying. He thought
everyone was pleased with the final results on the schools and
said it make him feel good both as a taxpayer and as an assembly-
man to see the work in place. He added the quality was good and
rated the design and workmanship as high in all respects. He
said the economic boost these two projects brought to the commu-
nities was not to be taken lightly. He noted that Mr. Wakefield
in Port Lions had pointed out the payroll on the Port Lions
school had infused $80,000 into the local economy just last
month. He said this was money staying on Kodiak Island. Also,
he said maintenance on the Ouzinkie school needed to be
addressed.
Assemblyman Austerman echoed Assemblyman Merriman's comments
about the two schools, and added that he was more than
comfortable in proceeding with the Old Harbor school. He said
there were definitely things that needed to be done to the
Ouzinkie school. He pointed out there were five furnaces
operating in the Ouzinkie school which seemed economically
unwise. He noted other problems which needed to be remedied in
the school. He said that he supported the school district's
request for two million dollars to upgrade the Ouzinkie school.
Also, referring to a statement made by Senator Stevens that the
Navy would be making a report on home porting within six weeks,
he urged the assembly to make a last ditch effort to put across
to the Navy that the community was interested in the Navy coming
to Kodiak.
Assemblyman Gregg reminded the assembly that Saturday would be
the borough clerk's birthday. He urged everyone to call her to
wish her a "Happy Birthday" and to particularly inquire as to
how old she was.
Assemblyman Barker stated that she was glad to be back in town
for a few days. She said she had attended the Hospital Board
meeting and reported on new equipment acquired by the hospital.
She added that it was good to catch up on everything.
