A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE PASAGSHAK POINT
RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT
Introduced by: Mayor Selby
Requested by: Mayor Selby
Drafted by: Community
Development Department
Introduced: 02/20/97
Adopted: 02/20/97
the Pasagshak Road Reconstruction Project is currently ranked as a number
4 priority in the Alaska Department of Transportation's (DOT) Statewide
Transportation Improvement Program (STIP); and
this rank does not incorporate all the information relevant to the project,
including the recommendation in the Kodiak Roadway Master Plan (March
1986) that this project should be completed as a major improvement to the
Kodiak road system; and
this rank also does not recognize the substantial economic benefits to the
region and the State from this road reconstruction project, since the
reconstruction will support the Kodiak Launch Complex, as the projects
primary means of access; and
this project also merits consideration as a safety improvement, since this
reconstruction project is primarily necessary to improve safety, since the
current roadway contains a hazardous hairpin turn; and
the operation and maintenance costs of this project may be accepted by
another agency, upon project completion; and
the road segment to be reconstructed , by this project, is deficient in width,
grade, and alignment, and is currently the only vehicle access to Narrow
Cape, functioning as a major arterial;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH ASSEMBLY
that the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly fully supports the Pasagshak Point
Reconstruction Project, and urges the Alaska Department of Transportation to include this
project in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program as a Fiscal Year 1998
design and construction project.
