A. RESOLUTIONS
1. Resolution No. 94 -12 Supporting the Kodiak
Commercial Salmon Fishery and Opposing the
State of Alaska Board of Fisheries Proposal
No. 528.
Presented for consideration was Resolution No. 94 -12
which, if adopted, supported management of commercial
salmon fishing in Kodiak and opposed the proposal to
manage Cook Inlet salmon by -catch by the Kodiak
fleet.
GOULD, moved to adopt
seconded by MONROE Resolution No. 94 -12.
Mayor Selby explained that the resolution was
initiated by the Kodiak Salmon Work Group in support
of the effort to oppose Cook Inlet By -catch Proposal
No. 528. He gave a synopsis of the economic impact
of the salmon industry on Kodiak in that it was an
integral part of the community because it provided
employment. He elaborated that 611 small businesses
and 374 salmon permit holders, 81 of which reside in
villages, were connected to the fishery. He affirmed
that the salmon fishery was clean, compared to deep -
water fisheries, because there was no by- catch.
Assemblymember Burt clarified that the special
meeting was called because there was concern that
adoption of the resolution at the March 17, 1994
regular meeting was not timely.

2. Resolution No. 93 -07C Amending Resolution RESOLUTION
No. 93 -07 Establishing Fees of the Kodiak NO. 93 -07C
Island Borough.
Presented for consideration was Resolution No. 93 -07C
which, if adopted, amended Resolution No. 93 -07 by
waiving the $30.00 junk automobile disposal fee.
MILLIGAN, moved to adopt
seconded by GOULD Resolution No. 93 -07C.
Mayor Selby stated that waiving the fee for a three -
month period encouraged the community to dispose of
junk vehicles and maximized the opportunity to crush
and move the vehicles off - Island. He said the
overall plan was to remove the vehicles in an
efficient manner and clean -up the community.
At questions raised by Assemblymember Milligan, Mayor
Selby clarified that the Borough's junk vehicle
program provided towing at no charge. He announced
that the public could contact Bob Scholze in the
Community Development Department regarding towing and
that information would be advertised in the Borough
newspage.
In response to Assemblymember Burt, Mayor Selby
explained that it was appropriate to place scrap
metal items in vehicles prior to disposal. He added
that although the program was geared to junk vehicle
disposal, people with large scrap metal items, such
as quonset huts, should contact Mr. Scholze.
