Chapter 2.35
CODE OF ETHICS
d ethical stdards among municipal officers of the borough
government nd that the assembly believes that a code of
I officers will urage those officers to act in the public
ublic sery , and will promote and strengthen the faith
r municipal officers.
g pub i •" e or employment is a public trust and that the
here to a code of ethics.
ics.
at ea i municipal officer holds office as a public trust, and any
rsonal interest or a substantial financial interest through official
. The public trust and this chapter do not prohibit an officer from
, so long as those pursuits do not interfere with the full and faithful
discharge of an offic . 5 aic duties. The assembly further recognizes that:
1. In a repre ative democracy, the representatives are drawn from society and
therefore, cannot an not be entirely without personal and financial interests in the
decisions and policies of government;
2. Citizens who serve as municipal officers retain their rights to interests of a personal or
financial nature; and
3. Standards of ethical conduct for municipal officers need to distinguish between those
inconsequential conflicts which are unavoidable in a free society, and those which are
substantial and material.
B. There is no violation of this code of ethics if, as to a specific matter, a municipal officer's:
1. Personal or financial interest in the matter is insignificant, or of a type that is possessed
generally by the public or a large class of persons to which the municipal officer belongs;
Ordinance No. FY200X -XX
Page 2 of 6
106 2. Action or influence would have an insignificant or conjectural effect on the matter; or
107 3. Action consists of voting in favor of introduction of an ordinance.
108 C. In order for the rules governing conduct to be respected both during and after leaving
109 public service, the code of ethics must be administered fairly without bias or favoritism;
110 D. No code of ethics, however comprehensive, can anticipate all situations in which violations
111 may occur nor can it prescribe behaviors that are appropriate to every situation; in addition, laws
112 and regulations regarding ethical responsibilities cannot legislate morality, eradicate corruption,
113 or eliminate bad judgment; and
114 E. Compliance with a code of ethics is an individual responsibility; thus all who serve the
115 borough have a solemn responsibility to avoid improper conduct and prevent improper behavior
116 by colleagues and subordinates.
117 F. The borough attorney shall be guided by this section when iss>. opinions and reaching
118 decisions. :`+

120 2.35.030 Misuse of official position.

RE: Convenience Center Costs
KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH
ENGINEERING /FACILITIES DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
As requested I have studied and estimated the cost of providing a "convenience center" for
customers in the Monoshka Bay area and Womens Bay area to drop off their household
garbage at a manned dumpster site. Several individuals have suggested the Bayside fire
hall property as an excellent location for the facility. While the fire hall property provides a
good location, it is not available for such use.
I investigated properties close to the fire hall and discovered a vacant lot across Rezanof
from the fire hall, which provides equal convenience. The lot sold a few years ago for
$180,000. To develop the lot for the intended use would require the following
improvements:
• Add another driveway entrance and expand the existing entry
• Dress up the lot with D -1 and grade
• Prep and place a 35'x100'x6" concrete slab
• Install approx. 750 linear feet of 8' tall privacy fencing
• Construct a 10'x10' attendant shed with power and lights
• Equip attendant shed
• Install 2 parking lot light poles for constant lighting to deter bears
• Rezone the lot to suitable zoning code
• Hire a Baler Operator I at entry level
• Include insurance, admin and maintenance of the property
Including $180,000 purchase price and the assumed capital and operating expenses above,
and allocating these expenses over the "Bear Area" customers, an additional $19.29 would
be the monthly expense to each customer over and above the regular garbage fee.
Some suggested using existing Borough property for the center. It is problematic to locate a
a facility on existing Borough land that provides for the expected convenience. Considering
a hypothetical Borough property, assuming the same development and operating costs as
the Rezanof site, and removing the purchase amount the scenario indicates a monthly
increase of $15.75 per month for each resident over and above the regular garbage bill.
These estimated costs are for the addition of convenience center services only and do not
include collection and disposal costs.

Born in Kenai, Jeff Riley loves to cook for his family and friends. He now
lives in Anchorage with his wife and two daughters. Over the years, his
family has enjoyed soccer, basketball, volleyball, plus golf and gardening
during the summer. They keep a worm composting bin in their garage to
recycle their food scraps. In the spring, Jeff uses the worm casings to
supplement the soil in their patio garden of flowers.
Mr. Riley has worked in the solid waste industry for over 16 years with
considerable experience in establishing and providing management and
support in all areas of daily operations, safety, and customer service. He
oversees Alaska Waste's operations in the Municipality of Anchorage
providing service to approximately 50,000 residential homes.
He has a proven track record managing start up projects and new contracts.
While at Alaska Waste the company has started two new "green" collection
programs; used cooking oil and commingled residential curbside with plans
for a third program with the start up of post consumer food waste collection.
What are Alaska Waste's goals in providing solid waste collection
services for residents of Kodiak?
Alaska Waste's primary goal is to follow the collection plan outlined in the
Solid Waste Management Plan (SWMP), adopted by the Kodiak Island
Borough Assembly on August 22, 2008. The SWMP provides for:
1. Operational efficiency with a safe, uniform system of standardized
carts
2. Rate stability: collection rates over the long -term (5 -10 years) will
fluctuate less
3. Fair and equitable garbage rates based on how much you throw away,
creating a direct economic incentive to reduce, reuse and recycle
4. Rate equity and elimination of waste generators that are currently
being subsidized in the existing system
5. Removal of community dumpsters: Dumpsters are expensive and
wasteful, by allowing an out -of- sight, out -of mind way to avoid the
responsibility of paying for disposal, thus creating increased costs to
all rate payers in the system
6. Higher level of service: Customer convenience is increased and litter
and garbage in the streets is reduced
7. Addition of future services, such as curbside recycling
How will the new service work?
Kodiak residential customers will be serviced by 1 of 3 ways depending on
where you live:
1. BEAR CART AREA: Weekly curbside pickup of standardized bear carts
for the area located primarily north of the intersection of Mill Bay Road and
East Rezanof. Carts available will come in 64- gallon or 96- gallon sizes.
2. DOWNTOWN CORE: Weekly curbside pickup of standard roll carts
located primarily south of intersection of Mill Bay Road and East Rezanof.
Carts available will come in 32- gallon, 64- gallon or 96- gallon sizes.
3. ROLL -OFFS: For residential users in Bells Flats, Chiniak and Pasagshak
the service will continue to be provided by roll -off containers (dumpsters) in
the same manner as today.
Areas utilizing carts will be serviced by new automated or semi - automated
collection vehicles.
How will the bear area work?
The bear area is viewed as a "test" area for wildlife experts to observe the
behavior of humans, bears and the effectiveness of equipment. Alaska Waste
will provide residents with regularly - scheduled weekly removal of waste.
What will be the rate for the new residential service?
The Kodiak Island Borough landfill operates as an Enterprise Fund which is
similar to a not - for - profit business where revenues must meet expenses. For
many years revenues were not meeting expenditures and there were
regulatory compliance issues that were not being adequately addressed.
Therefore, in 2003 residential and commercial rates were raised for the first
time in 7 years. In 2005, commercial rates were raised again to balance the
budget.
The proposed monthly rates listed below are very similar to what residential
customers are currently paying. While these proposed rates are not cast in
stone, substantial rate increases are not expected to occur during the term of
the collection contract. The following prices include use of the carts and
residential roll -offs (dumpsters).
In the bear area:
$34.09 for 64- gallon cart
$38.31 for 96- gallon cart
In the downtown core area:
$28.90 for 32- gallon cart
$34.09 for 64- gallon cart
$38.31 for 96- gallon cart
In the area defined past Dead Man's Curve - Bell's Flats, Chiniak and
Pasagshak:
$38.31 per residence
What if I live in an apartment building or multi - family housing?
The new automated collection service will be available to all residential
customers. Often larger housing units, such as triplexes, 4- plexes, condos
and apartment buildings, have a commercial dumpster service. If you live in
an apartment or multi - family dwelling your complex will be serviced by a
commercial dumpster.
What if I can't get my cart down to the pickup point?
Alaska Waste is committed to tailoring their services to meet the individual
needs of Kodiak customers and ensure consistent services at both the local
and state levels. If you have a concern, special need or circumstance, contact
Alaska Waste at the time the collection contract is implemented (most likely
July 1, 2010) to communicate your needs.

Specialist for the Kodiak Island Borough at 486 -9348.
