Hi Nova,
Here is the response to Mel Stephen's requests on CH2M Hill's presentation tonight from Cory Hinds with CH2M
Hill. Mr. Hinds will be here tonight for the presentation and will discuss his presentation and how he arrived at his
numbers. It is important to note when comparing costs with other facilities that the comparisons may not always be
apples to apples as each facility has unique operations that must be considered.
Please distribute to the Mayor and the Assembly.
Thanks.

1) Used actuals (Borough numbers used in Rate Model) for current operating costs and annual allocation for closure and post -
closure
2) Estimates of capital costs were amortized over a 20 year finance period at 6% interest to yield annual payments
3) All annual payments were divided by the estimated annual tonnage to get base $ /ton costs
4) Added 50% to base to get +50% estimate, reduced base by 30% to get -30% estimate
Specific answers to Mel's questions:
*Yes, both operating costs and amortized capital costs were provided.
* 20 year finance period
* Closure and post - closure costs are included for the existing landfill for all alternatives. However, upon checking, I see that I
forgot to include closure /post- closure costs for the lateral expansion. I have since added this cost, and it added $6 /ton
to the lateral expansion estimate. I have attached the revised Power Point presentation with the updated numbers.
* Kodiak's current annual tons is approximately 16,000, and the current operating cost (including allocation for closure /post-
closure) is $114 /ton.
* Operating cost for Anchorage Regional is approx $45 /ton which includes closure and post - closure allocation. Mat -Su and
Fairbanks are both at close to $50 /ton. Juneau is apparently $90 /ton.
Would you see if we could get the backup calculations from which the figures shown on the CH2M
Hill "Comparison of Options" table (p. 3 of powerpoint document) were derived BEFORE tomorrow
evening's worksession. I assume that simply forwarding this e -mail to the appropriate parties
will do the trick.
The figures given simply aren't terribly helpful unless the underlying data and /or assumptions
upon which they are based are presented. E.g., --
Do they include BOTH operating costs and the amortization of capital costs?
What are the assumed time periods?
Are closure costs included in any of the options?
What are Kodiak's CURRENT figures for tons of waste accepted at the landfill per year and
operating cost per ton?
Do we have these (or other comparable) figures for the four non- Kodiak landfills mentioned in
Tracy Mitchell's August 28 memo to Rick?

RE: Presentation to Assembly by CH2M Hill — August 31, 2006
CH2M Hill is an engineering and consulting firm that has the expertise and knowledge to present
information regarding landfills and solid waste and do so on an international scale. CH2M Hill has
also been intimately involved in design and construction projects at the Kodiak Island Borough
landfill for close to 10 years and therefore have detailed knowledge of the Borough's concerns and the
Borough's future direction.
CH2M Hill has been requested to provide a broad overview of different landfill operations and
facilities and allow for a question and answer period following the presentation. To prepare for the
question and answer period it is recommended that the Assembly review the document that was
provided to them by Bob Cox of AK Waste when he came to speak to the Assembly. This should help
the Assembly formulate questions. This document has been emailed to the Assembly however it may
be too large for them to open. A copy is available in the Clerk's office.
The following is the basic outline of CH2M Hill's proposed presentation:
1. Advantages /disadvantages of landfill incinerators vs. baling vs. loose fill
a. Economics of scale
b. Permitting
c. Managing leachate
d. Manpower
2. Discussion of landfills in Alaska with photos
a. Unalaska (bale fill)
b. Mat -Su (loose fill)

I. INTRODUCTION
The Assembly has requested information that will educate them on the Kodiak Landfill. There
will be major decisions to be made in the near future on what our landfill will look like and how
it will operate in the next 10 -25 years, and having this background information is critical in
making those decisions.
There will be presentations made to the Assembly in and effort to provide you a comprehensive
picture of what it means to collect, deliver, process and dispose, close and monitor a landfill. The
end result of these presentation is a clear picture of what we will be requested in an "A -Z study ".
II. CH2MHiil — Landfill 101
This presentation on landfill operations will be provided by CH2MHi11. This firm is most
familiar with the Kodiak operation having engineered the existing "footprint" and the plan for
stacking bales. They are also the firm that performed the Waste Management study for the Mat -
Su Borough that was emailed to you, or is available at the clerk's office. They are familiar with
Alaska landfill operation issues.
Attached to this memo is a copy of the PowerPoint presentation that CH2MHi11 will be making
at Thursday's work session. After the presentation there will be a question and answer session on
the future of the Kodiak landfill and the issues that they have raised.
III FUTURE PRESENTATIONS
There are future presentations that will be made before the Assembly. Alaska Waste is putting
together a presentation that is based on their experience as a collection company all over the
state. That report will be completed this fall.
IV CONCLUSION
All these efforts are being done to aid the Assembly in focusing staff efforts and financial
resources on the direction of future landfill operations.

KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
PARKS & RECREATION COMMITTEE
REGULAR MEETING - August 22, 2006
MINUTES
CALL TO ORDER
The regular meeting of the Parks & Recreation Committee was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by
CHAIR SIROFCHUCK on August 22, 2006 in the Borough Conference Room.
ROLL CALL
A quorum was established.
APPROVAL OF AGENDA
COMMITTEE MEMBER HUNTLEY MOVED TO APPROVE the agenda as presented. The
motion was SECONDED by COMMITTEE MEMBER SALTONSTALL, and it CARRIED by
unanimous voice vote.
MINUTES OF PREVIOUS MEETING
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOREMAN MOVED TO APPROVE the minutes from the meeting
of July 25 as well as the minutes from the meeting of August 8, 2006. The motion was
SECONDED by COMMITTEE MEMBER SALTONSTALL, and it CARRIED unanimously.
AUDIENCE COMMENTS AND APPEARANCE REQUESTS
OLD BUSINESS
A) Chapter 9 Comprehensive Plan Issue Discussion. COMMITTEE MEMBER
HUNTLEY inquired if something was passed at the last meeting?
DVORAK said that chapter 9 was really a recitation of existing conditions that had quite a few
corrections made in terms of the comments. The issues and the goals and objective sections at
the end of the chapter were really not there, and there was some thought that the committee could
think of some issues that would be appropriate for that chapter between that meeting and this
meeting to make sure that some of those issues were in there. The trail issues in particular were
8/22/2006 Parks & Recreation Committee Page 1 of 8
kind of spread between the two chapters, the Transportation Chapter and Parks and Recreation
Chapter, and it was the consensus that the survey work that was done and the planning that was
done was really done from a recreational perspective rather than a transportation perspective. So
while there may be some need for some cross over, that data and that effort should be
documented in the Parks and Recreation chapter.
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOSTER said that it seemed like according to the minutes done it
seemed like everything was finalized and the only thing to be kept on the agenda was Item B and
the CIP List.
COMMITTEE MEMBER SALTONSTALL said there were some recommendations made at the
previous meeting.
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOREMAN said she believes there are two separate issues here.
There's confusion over where the whole trail ought to fit in the Comp Plan, whether it should
end up in transportation or in recreation. There were some specific motions made about that, but
the main discussion was around what happens now with the Trails Plan, because there's nothing
in the Comp Plan about it. The main comment back was where's the Trails Plan? She doesn't see
that written here as things that we have passed in the minutes, so if we want that message to go
clearly back to them then that should be in a formal motion.
CHAIR SIROFCHUCK said when we had started on the Trails Plan and realized what a
daunting task it was, there was a point when because of the Borough Comprehensive Plan we
said lets stop on the Trails Plan until the Comp Plan is finished, saying it will be a sub plan of
that plan. So when people say where the Trails Plan and the Comp Plan are, are we expecting
the consultants to have a draft in there for us?
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOREMAN made a MOTION TO AMEND the minutes from
August 8, to include the email Duane sent that outlines each of the points the Parks and
Recreation Committee listed as a concern in the Comp Plan. The motion was SECONDED by
COMMITTEE MEMBER HUNTLEY, and it carried unanimously.
Chapter 7 - Transportation
1. Page 5, Para 2, under "Existing Conditions "; in the second sentence add the following
language after "activity centers "...remove the "and" and insert "but lack the desired level of'
before "connectivity ".
2. Page 5, Para 2, under "Existing Conditions "; in the last sentence it indicates that the issue
of motorized and non - motorized trail use is addressed in Chapter 9, Parks and Open Space
chapter. No discussion could be found in that chapter. (Incidentally Chapter 9 is titled Parks and
Recreation, not Parks and Open Space.)
3. Page 5, Para 1, last sentence; add the following benefits of reducing traffic to this
sentence: energy conservation and health benefits.
4. Page 6, Bullets under Bicycle Facilities; Add a bullet: "For the purposes of bicycle
facilities they should be developed in the following priority, physically separated paths, grade
separated paths and designated bicycle lanes
5. Page 6, 1st Para under the trail survey, Aug. 2004 Report: The task of developing a plan
for road - accessible trails IS NOT underway by the KIB Parks and Rec Committee. The

5. Page 6, 1st Para under the trail survey, Aug. 2004 Report: The task of developing a plan
for road - accessible trails IS NOT underway by the KIB Parks and Rec Committee. The
resources that might have been allocated to that project were included with the regional
comprehensive plan so that the completion of a detailed trails plan may be a needed follow -on to
larger comprehensive plan effort.
6. Page 7, 1st Para, summary of trail survey data; Trail survey data and discussion should be
moved to the Parks and Rec chapter. (The Committee discussed the reason for including trails in
the transportation chapter and felt that was appropriate for discussing urban/suburban trails and
paths along major transportation routes. In the case of the survey data however, they felt the
context of the survey was aimed at the primarily recreational trails that were not really perceived
as part of a transportation "system ". For that reason they felt this discussion should be moved to
the Parks and Rec. chapter.
7. General suggestion; along the lines of the prior comment, the P &R Committee felt that
the entire trail survey should be included in the plan as an appendix.
8. Page 7, Last line; amend the bullet point for Existing Trails to say "Increasing" instead of
"Continuing" prior to the word maintenance.
9. Page 8, 2nd bullet point; add the following language to the end of the sentence, "and to
increase connectivity between existing trails.
10. Pages 7 and 8, The committee recommended moving the Issue bullet points for Existing
trails, Mapping and Access to recreational areas to the Parks and Rec chapter.
11. Page 11, under Issues; the committee suggests adding a reference to the Antone Larsen
Bay Dock and Boat Ramp as an emerging issue. The facility was originally created in support of
Terror Lake development, but was requested to be left in place by the KIB when the project was
completed as a recreational support facility. With recent improvements to the boat ramp and
parking area, the facility appears to be supporting a more transportation related role in support of
commerce and intermodal transportation needs of remote communities.

facilities for recreational and transportation use in Women's Bay, Monashka Bay, Thumbs Up
Rock, and Pasagshak."
Chapter 9 - Parks and Recreation
1. Page 1, bottom of page; add Parks and Recreation to a companion list of non -area wide
powers that have been adopted by an election of the public on the Kodiak Road system.
2. Page 2, 2nd Para, 1 st sentence; the KIB no longer owns land on Shuyak Island. It was
sold to the State of Alaska about 10 years ago for $40,000,000. In terms of land owned by the
KIB, it is recommended that another example of Borough land that may have a high value as
open space is the Russian Ridge area along the lower flanks of Pillar Mtn. This area is generally
located between Selief Lane and Monashka Bay Road.

3. Page 3, Under "Trails and Other Facilities on Borough Land "; The Parks and Rec.
Committee reiterate that it is not working on a trails plan at present. You should have all the
information that has been developed relating to trails in hand already, i.e. surveys, GIS mapping,
etc. If the trails piece of the Parks and Recreation chapter is not to be very specific, the
Committee has indicated they are prepared to make specific recommendation for maintaining
and improving public access in areas where private land may be a limiting factor. This may
involve recommendation for future land or easement acquisitions for that purpose so that there
might be a rational nexus contained in the plan for future reference should opportunities to
improve access come along.
4. The Parks and Rec. Committee is interested in making further comments when the draft
is further along. They did not see this draft containing much in the way of issues, it seemed
mostly an inventory of existing facilities and existing conditions. The Committee in interested in
making further comment as new information is added from the various community meetings.
5. Page 7, relating to the "Tugidak Island Critical Habitat Area"; there was some question
why Marmot Island was not mentioned somewhere in this context. Apparently it is also a critical
habitat area according to State Park District Ranger Wayne Biessel.
6. Page 10, Issues; Issues have come out in scoping meetings and Parks and Rec issues have
been a big part of this. The Parks and Rec. Committee will forward their own issues in a later
review. They will include trail issues for the Transportation Chapter as well as for Chapter 9.
DVORAK said he would have the secretary include the points
CHAIR SIROFCHUCK asked if we should send someone from the committee to next
Thursday's Assembly meeting? He stated that when committee reports are brought up, they
could say briefly that we have been discussing the Comp Plan and the Parks and Recreation, and
that we wanted to call their attention to our list of concerns that Duane had forwarded to the
consultants. Our efforts would be to reinforce that they take a look at that and be aware of those.
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOREMAN responded that she didn't know if that was inappropriate
to do at all. Assembly members read these packets and they do pay attention, but sometimes it
ends up maybe a month later in their packet.
13) Recreational Access Recommendations
COMMITTEE MEMBER SALTONSTALL said that we have to get something in there, but if
we're allowed to do a trails plan and get it incorporated into the Comp Plan than we really don't
need to do Recreational Access Recommendations. We'll need to make some recommendations
if we're not doing something.
COMMITTEE MEMBER HUNTLEY stated that what we need then is some feedback just to see
what direction we need to go.
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOREMAN stated that Sharatin, for example, is not a trail so you're
talking about recreational land not just trails.
COMMITTEE MEMBER SALTONSTALL stated that he thought the trails plan was going to
include more than just trails too, but also camp sites. Trails give us sort of a generic term.
COMMITTEE MEMBER FOREMAN stated that it's difficult to follow the changes on the
website because you never know if a chapter has changed completely when it goes up, so did you
ever get any feedback from them on that?
8/22/2006 Parks & Recreation Committee Page 4 of 8
DVORAK said he hadn't. Matt Hastie has been out of the office quite a bit. He has been
corresponding with one of his associates, Teak Wall. While he has responded to a few emails
here and there, they have been more or less one -line responses. Teak Wall is the new associate,
who is handling the stuff in between, but he is not the decision maker and he doesn't really
answer questions like Matt. He sends me information at the direction of Matt and he has
received a few write -ups of issues, and they are more preliminary than anything.
COMMISSIONER SALTONSTALL said that our D &R recommendations, those covered a lot
of land on the road system. It only covered public land, state land it didn't cover native land.
C) CIP List. COMMITTEE MEMBER HUNTLEY stated that we have some definite
things from the villages and there is a couple of them that come under, he didn't believe they had
done this before he didn't remember seeing anything like this from the villages before. A couple
of things in there that we should make note of and put in our list if you will in an appropriate
spot, because he would hope that these people would rely on us for some of this stuff.
DVORAK said that at the last meeting he neglected to get some of the information to you. The
Borough gave itself non -area wide park authority outside the city and primarily outside the city
of Kodiak. By implication it also excludes all the other cities, he didn't think we could go there.
Really the election was about Parks and Recreation facilities and not programs and that type of
thing. This ordinance that created the Parks and Recreation Committee flows from that authority
and it was such a long time ago, he doesn't believe that people actually know or understand what
was said and may think that Parks and Recreation authority extends to programs or activities that
are not facilities. This year because of high oil prices and the anticipation that Juneau would
have a lot of extra money to spend, they put in all the projects that were on the B list that aren't
brought out until something gets completed and moves off the A list.
COMMITTEE MEMBER SALTONSTALL mentioned boat landing from the last Comp Plan
discussion. We never really considered those in the past. He noticed that the Monashka Bay
boat ramp and parking, that's under transportation projects, he proposed moving some of those
things on to our list.
DVORAK responded saying that boat ramps kind of like trails sort of live in the transportation
world as well as in the Parks and Recreation world. When he thinks of the Antone Larson Bay
boat ramp and dock facility, the improvements that were done over there, he was pretty sure the
money came from Fish and Game, not the DOT. DOT may have been a participant because they
own the right -of -way and pretty much most of the facility, but you've got Native Corporation
land on the other side and you've got State Tide lands on the other side outside the right -of -way,
and so it was Fish and Game. So maybe it would have been better to classify it as a Parks and
Recreation and Cultural Category, but he wasn't sure.
CHAIR SIROFCHUCK suggested rather than start changing categories, as an advisory
committee it would be entirely appropriate for us to memo the assembly and say that item 6 and
7 we believe, is in higher priority because those are important recreational projects. So even
though they are under transportation we feel they should be given a higher priority.
DVORAK stated that in regards to the list if you have a recommendation to make regardless of
what category it's in, the thing would be to look at the scoring and see what the economic
benefits, health and quality of life, safety and public support. The Parks and Recreation
Committee could have a lot of influence in the health and quality of life issue scores and
manipulating the score and that type of thing. From a staff prospective we score these things and
that's primarily the scores you see, and when we go to the Planning and Zoning Commission if

Project Description
Spruce Cape Streetlights Service Area
i ffrivri-ot5
Approval of this proposition would establish the Spruce Cape Streetlights Service Area
to provide for the construction, operation and maintenance of street lights in the Natives
of Kodiak Spruce Cape Subdivision located at the end of Spruce Cape Road. The
boundary of the district includes residential lots bordered by Harry Neilsen Avenue, Eli
Waselie Circle, Sut Larsen Way and (East) Spruce Cape Road. These are the newly
paved roads maintained by Service Area #1.
If approved, the Borough Assembly appoints a service area board made up of residents
who live in the service area who will determine the number, type, and location of
streetlights desired by residents and recommend a mill rate to the Borough Assembly to
pay for the installation and operation of the streetlights.
The cost of installation will depend on the number, type, and location of the street lights.
The cost to operate the street lights is determined by the wattage of the bulbs. The
estimated cost to purchase and install the street lights is $2,000 per pole and the
monthly operation cost for a typical street light is approximately $25 per month per pole.
Other similar streetlight service areas have established a mill rate
proposed Spruce Cape Street Light Service Area may be more or
actual costs of installation, operation and maintenance.

Project Description
This bond would authorize the sale of up to $8,000,000 worth of bonds which will
supplement the existing $6,210,000 worth of bonds sold by the borough as a result of
the October 2004 bond election for a new Kodiak High School Pool. The total price for
the pool is now estimated to cost close to $14,000,000. The Borough is currently
seeking additional funding through various grants, interest earnings, and other funding
sources and will only sell enough bonds to complete the project.
The project remains identical to that approved by voters in the 2004 election. It is
described as:
"A new 18,000 square foot pool facility ... The pool will not only s e
the school district needs, but also offer therapy, exercise and healthy
recreation opportunity for member of the communities with the followin_
features: i
1. Six Lanes
2. Twenty -five yards pool with a diving board
3. A separate shallow area for handicapped access to the pool and special
education services
4. Locker and family changing rooms, storage and mechanical rooms
5. An attached multi -use teaching space convertible to a 200 spectator seating area
6. Ability to hold regional swim meets or other large water events that are currently
held in other places across the state.
7. Expandable for future additions as the needs change in the community
Additional funding is needed to address the escalation and increase in materials (steel,
concrete, and oil based products) and construction costs due to events in the nation and
world that is putting a high demand on building materials and labor.
The amount of bonds that may be sold may be reduced by any additional grant funds
received by the Borough, interest earnings on the first bonds sold and other possible
sources of funding. The State of Alaska will reimburse the Borough 60% of the bond
debt for the amount of bonds eventually sold. This means that if the Borough sold the
full $8,000,000 in bonds, the State would pay for $4,800,000 and the Borough would pay
$3,200,000.

SUBJECT: Assembly Protocol Regarding Correspondence/Request of Information
I am in the process of putting together an Electe fic al'c Man„a1 for the Assembly
The Assembly needs to discuss and establish processes regarding correspondence and
request for information.
I am suggesting that any correspondence of the Assembly should follow the process
that the Mayor follows. The Mayor requests support of the Assembly before sending
out any correspondence.
Regarding request of information from staff, boards, and other entities, Assembly
members should check with the Borough Manager to see if an official Borough
request has already been sent or is in progress. These types of requests should be
directed only to the Borough Manager or designee with consensus of the Assembly.
All communication may be public, forethought should be given to all
correspondence, whether written, verbal, or electronic. As a public official, all
communications regarding Borough business are subject to public disclosure laws.
I would appreciate your input regarding my suggestions. If you should have any
questions, please give me a call at (907) 486 -9310.

CITIZENS' COMMENTS
Debora King of the Kodiak Chamber of Commerce, Kodiak Branding and Marketing Committee (KBMC),
presented a promotional film strip, the "Star of Kodiak ", a community -based Quality Assurance Program
for wild seafood products originated from the Kodiak Region. The Committee is seeking funding from
the Kodiak Island Borough in the amount of $25,000, which requires a one -to -one cash match.
Captain Dave Davis, crossing guard coordinator /supervisor, thanked the present crossing guard
volunteers. He also asked the borough's support encouraging volunteers from non - profits organizations
that request funding.
Al Burch spoke in support of the "Star of Kodiak" quality assurance program. Mr. Burch reiterated that
KFMB would be matching funds and explained that these monies were not taxpayers' funds but a duty
on foreign fish imports, mostly pearls.
ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION
1. CH2M Hill Presentation — Landfills
Cory Hinds gave a brief presentation about waste disposal options in Kodiak. His presentation
was in response that the landfill is running out of space and that it has a high operations cost.
Some options explained were vertical expansion of existing landfill; lateral expansion; incineration
and shipping of ash; and bale and ship.
The cost of landfills in other Alaskan communities is information Assembly members would like.
They would also like to invite Bobby Cox for more information and a presentation, in order to
formulate a list of needs.
2. Parks and Recreation Committee — Trail Plan
Mike Sirofchuck, Chairman of Parks and Recreation Committee, stated that the committee went
through the Borough's comprehensive plan as an advisory committee. The committee hoped that
the trail issues would be incorporated in the final comprehensive plan. The surveys and
information had been given to consultants but has not been reflected in the plan.
Manager Gifford reported that the status of the comprehensive plan is that they are taking
comments on the plan. The goal is to have something in October or November 2006 to the
Planning and Zoning Commission, and then to the Borough the first of the year. The
Comprehensive Plan is to set a general direction and /or plan and it may however not be specific
enough to address paths /trails. If more specific information is needed, we need to go back to the
consultant to see if there will be an additional cost to include trails. The manager will meet with
Work Session Notes August 31, 2006
Presented to the Assembly on September 28, 2006 Page 1 of 6
consultants and come back to the assembly with an update.
3. Voters Pamphlet Summaries Review
Manager Gifford presented the Voters' Pamphlet summaries for the Spruce Cape lighting district
and the ballot issue for the pool.
Mayor Selby requested that the mill rate be translated into dollars for ease of understanding by the
voters.
After a 10- minute recess, Mayor Selby reconvened the meeting at 9:15 p.m.
4. Assembly Protocol Regarding Correspondence /Request of Information
Clerk Javier suggested the compilation of an Elected Officials Manual. The manual would
establish processes regarding correspondence and requests for information. No stringent
objection was made to Nova working on an Elected Officials Manual.
It was noted that AML puts together a very good manual, which is available without spending
additional administrative time. The question was raised about individual assembly members
sending letters out to the community and should they get a consensus of assembly before mailing.
PACKET REVIEW
CONTRACTS
Contract No. 2007 -10 Purchase of a Triple Combination Pumper for Bayside Fire Department.
Two firms responded to the RFP, and proposals were reviewed by staff, Fire Protection Area No. 1
Board, and the Borough Attorney. The proposal submitted by Quality Equipment Sales and Service was
found to be non - responsive. It is recommended that Pierce Manufacturers and Hughes Fire Equipment
be awarded this contract and KIB take full advantage of prepaid discounts. The approved cost would be
for an amount not to exceed $365,450.
Bayside Fire Dept. would like to attach a second truck to accepted bid proposal. Buying two pieces of
equipment would have a savings of approximately $40,000 using same maintenance and equipment.
Manager Gifford's recommendation was to go out for bid for a second truck. After attorney review, his
opinion is that such action is inconsistent with the KIB code and recommended not purchasing the
second vehicle within the scope of this contract.
Advertising per borough code has been set up for a second RFP. Guarantee of price ends October 31,
2006. Discussion as to budgets, Scott Arndt reported that the Fire Protection Area No. 1 Board has
$1.5 million dollars in their account. Their intent is to live within existing mil rate. Insurance provisions
needed to be looked at in agreement. It should read 9 months rather than 12 months.
Contract No. 2007 -11 RFP # 1 Architectural and Engineering Services for KMS Seismic Upgrade,
KHS Library Seismic Upgrade, KHS Gym Seismic Upgrade, KHS /KMS Complex IRMA Roof
Upgrade, KHS Learning Center, KHS Exterior Insulation and Window Replacement, KHS
Vocational Center Renovation and KHS Pool Reclamation.
The Architectural /Engineering Review Board (ARB), through an RFP process, has selected the firm of
Jensen Yorba Lott Inc. of Juneau, Alaska to perform the services specified in RFP #1. The Borough
Engineering and Facilities Department's Bond Projects Office has negotiated an AIA standard form of
Work Session Notes August 31, 2006
Presented to the Assembly on September 28, 2006 Page 2 of 6
agreement between owner and architect for architectural and engineering services in the amount up to
$732,000.
Stephens questioned if the project could be completed within 24 months referring to the contract on
Page 10. He also questioned if the costs were estimates or real numbers. Stephens requested that the
reimbursable expenses in the contract be looked at also. More specific information is needed.
RESOLUTIONS
Resolution No. FY2007 -06 Authorizing the Approval of Lease with the Kodiak Area Special
Olympics.
Manager Gifford recommended the approval of a one year lease with the Kodiak Area Special
Olympics. The increased amount is based on fuel, insurance, and donation costs. In the future, the
Manager would like to have longer leases with built -in costs.
Resolution No. FY2007 -07 Supporting Funding for the Kodiak Branding and Marketing
Committee.
Manager Gifford recommended funding the Kodiak Branding and Marketing Committee. AFMB will
match funds predicated that the City funds $25,000 and the borough funds $25,000. Manager Gifford
suggested that the money could be taken out of fund balance and leave $18,000 in Economic
Development account.
Stephens suggested the money be requested from the Chamber of Commerce.
Branson felt that this marketing tool was a great kick off for Kodiak salmon. She felt that this was an
economic boom to our economy; the film was good but the product is wonderful.
Oswalt requested from the Kodiak Branding and Marketing Committee a list of fishermen and boats that
could be involved in this promotion.
Resolution No. 1995 -01G Amending Resolution No. 1995 -01 Adopting a Records Retention
Schedule and Central Filing System to Reflect Amendment to Series BC -05 in the Clerk's Office.
Clerk Javier recommended that an amended records retention schedule and central filing system be
adopted to reflect retaining permanently certain records that are currently retained for 5 years. Series
BC -05 in the Clerk's Office needs to be updated to enable permanent access to records that are
routinely used for reference.
Resolution No. FY2007 -08 Urging the Federal Subsistence Board to Designate Kodiak Rural.
Manager Gifford recommended the approval of Resolution No. FY2007 -08 supporting that the Kodiak
area be given priority for subsistence uses of fish and wildlife on rural areas and the designation of
Kodiak as rural.
Jeffrey spoke in support for rural areas.
Stephens encouraged the public to go to the meetings and advocate for subsistence rights.
Mayor Selby said that the public needed to let the Board know that they used fish and game resources.
The Board was using different criteria which included economic, population, hunting and fishing use.
It was requested that the Borough Clerk send out a reminder call about the meetings for September
20` and 21

ORDINANCES FOR INTRODUCTION
Ordinance No. FY2007 -06 Amending Title 3 Revenue and Finance Chapter 3.30 Transient
Accommodations Tax to Provide for Collection That is More Efficient..
Current wording of Chapter 3.30 allows the owner of real and personal property the possibility of
avoiding the responsibility for the tax by renting the property to an operator, using a closely held
business, or otherwise contracting away responsibility for the tax. Ordinance would allow borough to
put a lien on property and help improve collections. Ordinance has been reviewed by the Borough
Attorney.
Stephens would like to postpone the ordinance in order to reword.
Ordinance No. FY2007 -07 Amending the First Paragraph of Section 203 of the Personnel Rules
and Regulations.
Manager Gifford believes that that the current language in the Personnel Manual was not the intent
originally and recommended that the Assembly consider changing the language. Amended wording
would state that "A member of the Personnel Board may not hold an elected office or be an employee
in the Kodiak Island Borough government and must be a registered voter in the Kodiak Island
Borough."
Ordinance No. FY2007 -08 Amending Kodiak Island Borough Code of Ordinances Title 17 Zoning
Chapters 17.03, 17.06, 17.12, 17.13, 17.15 — 17.20, 17.22, and 17.57 for Transient
Accommodations.
Manager Gifford introduced Ordinance No. FY2007 -08 at the recommendation of the Community
Development Department. The code was initiated to update portions of the KIB zoning ordinance (Title
17). Staff addressed the numerous inconsistencies relating to the language within Title 17 denoting
transient accommodations.
Ordinance No. FY2007 -01A Amending Ordinance No. FY2007 -01 Fiscal Year 2007 Budget by
Accepting and Appropriating a State Grant in the Amount of $301,318 for the Seismic Retrofit of
the Ouzinkie School Foundation.
This ordinance accepts the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program for fiscal year 2007 in the amount of
$302,318.
Oswalt requested that Ken Smith explore the option of using treated Spruce for this project.
Ordinance No. FY2007 -09 Authorizing an Amendment to the Borough's Participation Agreement
With the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) of Alaska and to Change the Borough
Code of Ordinances to Exclude Participation of Elected Officials.
Manager Gifford presented the ordinance at the recommendation of Ranney. This ordinance would limit
participation in the Borough's retirement system to employees of the Borough.
Stephens suggested postponement and seeking legal advice. He was also interested in knowing how
much the Assembly is paying right now to retirees that fall into this category.
Manager Gifford stated that the dates are negotiable and legal advice had been sought and
communities are making decisions on both sides.

OTHER ITEMS
Assembly Approval of Refund of Taxes Paid Under Protest Per AS29.45.500(A).
Manager Gifford stated that the Buskin River Inn, Inc. was delinquent paying its transient
accommodation taxes in the amount of $43,603.42. In November 2005, these taxes were paid and they
are now requesting a refund.
Stephens suggested that this item be taken off the agenda. He believes that if Koniag was approached
about being a good citizen, they may have second thoughts. Karl Short said he would explore further.
Vacation of a 10 Foot Wide Electrical Easement Located on Portions of Proposed Lots 3 and 4,
Northern Business Park.
Manager Gifford requested the assembly approve a vacation of a 10- foot -wide electrical easement
at the recommendation of KIB Planning and Zoning Commission. Code dictates that the Kodiak
Island Borough be the governing body for this particular case.
MANAGER'S COMMENTS — Manager Gifford
Unsolicited proposal for lobbying was received from Alan Austerman. Negotiations have been
taking place with Mark Hickey. Manager Gifford checked with the Assembly to see if there was
any change in direction. Consensus was to proceed with Mark Hickey.
Strategic work session was scheduled for Saturday November 4, 2006.
Status of the clinic's schematic is that the design and numbers have been given to Jimmy Ng to
get his grant application in.
The Architectural /Engineering Review Board is reviewing proposals and conducting interviews for
the Near Island ADF &G Project.
Manager requested direction for payment of Woodland Acres Paving District engineering costs.
Consensus was that no cost should be assessed to the residents. Bud Cassidy suggested putting
the district on the CIP list.
Structural survey has been completed and repairs have been recommended for the pool. The pool
does not have to be closed down but staff will be working on issues, costs, etc., and come back to
the assembly with information.
