CONSIDERATION OF MATTERS IN THE CALL FOR THE SPECIAL MEETING
PUBLIC HEARING
I. Resolution No. FY2009 -11 Authorizing Participation in the State of Alaska Community
Development Block Grant Program to Seek Grant Funds for the Planning of the
Replacement of the Long Term Care Facility.
After discussion with Providence staff, it was decided not to move forward with the grant
application. There was a process to follow and both KIB staff and Providence staff would have
difficulty to meet the application requirements prior to December 5, 2008.
11. Resolution No. FY2009 -12 Authorizing a Cooperative Application With the Community of
Karluk to the State of Alaska Community Development Block Grant Program to Seek Grant
Funds to Relocate and Upgrade the Community Water Supply Tank.
FRIEND moved to adopt Resolution No. FY2009 -11.
This resolution was requested by Project Manager Kelly Larson, of the Alaska Native Tribal
Health Consortium ( "ANTHC ") and Karluk IRA Tribal Council. Mr. Larson inquired if Kodiak
Island Borough would be willing to apply for a State of Alaska Community Development Block
Grant ( "CDBG ") to seek grant funds to relocate and upgrade the community of Karluk water
supply tank. The community of Karluk is not an eligible participant in the Alaska Department of
Commerce, Community and Economic Development CDBG program because the community is
not governed by a municipal entity as defined by Title 29 of the Alaska Statutes. The community
of Karluk identified a need to relocate and upgrade the community water supply tank, which
qualified as an eligible project in the CDBG program. The Kodiak Island Borough could assist
the community of Karluk in applying for a grant from the CDBG program by submitting a
cooperative application to the program. Staff agreed to present their request to the Borough
Assembly.
