OFFICE of the MANAGER 61-14 ai t FL '' MEMORANDUM TO: The Honorable Mayor and Assembly of the Kodiak Island Borough FROM: Rick Gifford, Borough Manager DATE: February 22, 2011 SUBJECT: Proposal for Solid Waste Expansion of Cart Services The current Solid Waste Collection Contract with Alaska Waste provides for residential roll cart services within the City of Kodiak. The Contract, Section 4 -4.01 b. (1) Residential states: "Beginning on the Collection Commencement Date, Contractor will Collect all Refuse discarded in Carts at residential Premises located within the City of Kodiak (or other area designated by KIB in Notice to Contractor) weekly, on the same Regularly Scheduled Collection Day." Other areas can be designated by KIB in a Notice to Contractor. The discussions during the contract approval process discussed other possible areas that are densely populated and could be easily accessible by roll carts. Those other areas were not included at the start of the Alaska Waste Contract as we were running out of time (up against the summer months) for Alaska Waste to implement the new system in a timely and efficient manner. The Solid Waste Management Plan calls for a Solid Waste System that is a "Pay -As- You - Throw" system. Direction given to the KIB administration upon approval of the Alaska Waste Contract and during discussion concerning possible transfer sites was to continue working towards the "Pay- As -You- Throw" system. The roll carts help the Borough move closer towards its goal of a "Pay - As- You - Throw" system and helps move towards a more comprehensive recycling system. In addition, the roll cart system has proven to be more efficient and cost effective for both the Contractor and the customer. The Contractor is better able to predict the amount of solid waste to be disposed and therefore, schedule routes and workers in a more productive manner and control costs. This efficiency relates to lower costs to the roll cart customer and the roll cart customer knows when his garbage will be picked up and the customer can adjust their disposal of garbage accordingly. Alaska Waste and the Borough Administration would like to propose additional areas just north of the City that are densely populated to be added to the Alaska Waste roll cart services. Included with this memo is a map indicating the proposed areas to receive roll cart services. The additional areas would create one additional route for Alaska Waste and make their collection services more efficient. The proposed areas would provide roll cart services to an additional 656 customers. It would eliminate 13 dumpster sites and 19 dumpsters along with the spillage that goes along with the dumpsters. Roll cart services within the City of Kodiak have proved to be successful. Customers know how to get rid of their trash and at least 90% of the customers place their roll carts out on the day of service. Alaska Waste is able to resolve problems with service immediately. Overflowing containers can be upgraded to a larger size roll cart, container issues are done with tags on the container by the driver and a call from dispatch. If the customer misses their service, Alaska Waste provides a 1 time courtesy pick up and on windy days, the driver attempts to place the container as far from road as possible. Alaska Waste has also been able to resolve issues with placement of roll carts with customers who have limited and /or difficult places with which to place the roll cart. Alaska Waste continues to get customer requests for roll cart services outside of the existing service area. Most people who move to Kodiak are already familiar with the roll cart service and know what to expect. In addition, the customer can choose the size of roll cart needed, thus only paying for the amount of garbage they dispose of instead of what others dispose of. Customers with additional garbage on an occasional basis or with bulky items can continue to contact Alaska Waste for pick up and /or deliver to the landfill themselves. Knowing what areas will eventually receive roll cart services will also make it easier to determine the number of sites and the size of transfer sites needed. Alaska Waste and KIB staff will be available at the Assembly's work session to discuss the above proposal and answer questions. The Borough has been making progress toward the goals outlined in the Kodiak Island Borough Strategic Plan regarding responsible collection and disposal of solid waste and extending the life of the landfill while reducing long -term costs to customers. Roll -cart service within the City provides an efficient, clean, convenient, and low -cost alternative to the previous system. Customers served by the roll -carts within the City of Kodiak are generally pleased with the convenience and.have adjusted quickly to the change.'The successof this first step provides confidence that we are ready to expand this service toincludemore&'residential customers, and remove the messy expensive residential dumpsters .i `"` The Borough proposes to ex'parid•this service to tile reiidential customers identified in the green and blue shaded neighb rhoods shat n on the enclosed map ,Each resident within the proposed service area will choose the appropriate cart size (provided ) t no charge) for their needs and receive weekly pick -up service. Rate changes: • Current dumpster rate $40.31 per month $495.72 per year • New 32 gallon cart rate 528.90 per month $346.80 per year • New 64 gallon cart rate $34.09 per month $409.08 per year • New 96 gallon cart rate $38.31 per month $459.72 per year How does this system reduce tong -term costs to customers? • Operational efficiencies in garbage collection with carts cost less than collection by dumpsters. • Eliminating residential dumpsters promotes individual responsibility and reduces opportunities for abuse i.e. commercial /construction waste in residential containers. • Variable rates provide an incentive to recycle therefore reducing volumes placed in the landfill. How does this system lengthen the life of the landfill? • It advances KIB to an efficient automated collection system that is easily adapted to convenient road -side collection of recyclables in the near future. • Individual cart based recycling systems yield more material per household than regional bin based collection systems.

I would like to address the upcoming vote associated with the expansion of curb -side garbage pick -up. As I have noted in previous written and oral testimony to this Assembly, such expansion will increase the risk of adverse bear -human encounters and will reduce the effectiveness of our agency and other public safety agencies to protect local residents. Consequently, we are opposed to any expansion. Recent media reports suggest that the Borough is considering a compromise solution proposed by Alaska Waste which would allow residents in the proposed expansion area to volunteer to sign -up for roll -cart service. If these reports are accurate, and the Assembly considers that the associated risks of such a proposal to the public are acceptable, I would urge you to consider two stipulations to the compromise: 1) All roll -carts used in the voluntary expansion area be certified as "bear resistant ". This will reduce the chance of bear problems and has been discussed extensively during workshops and other public meetings; and, 2) There will be no more consideration of expansion of roll -cart service, either mandatory or voluntary, to other rural areas along the Kodiak road system. During a recent work session Mayor Selby assured the public that further expansion was not an option. I believe that this prohibition should be either written into the contract or be clear in the public record. Future time and effort should be spent on developing and operating transfer stations, not on continuing debates over issues that have already been discussed and resolved. Thank you for your time and careful consideration of this important issue of balancin_ cost, convenience and public safety. :try Van Daele, Ph.D. Kodiak Area Wildlife Biologist Alaska Department of Fish and Game 211 Mission Road Kodiak, Alaska 996/5 USA (907) 486 -1876 KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH AGENDA STATEMENT JUNE 16, 2011 REGULAR MEETING ITEM NO: 13.A.1 TITLE: Contract No. FY2011 -30 Between the Kodiak Island Borough and the Kodiak Chamber of Commerce of Kodiak, AK for the Economic Planning and Project Development Within the Kodiak Island Borough for FY2012.

Community Development Projects 54 Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 3 SUMMARY Background The island group known as the Kodiak Island Archipelago is located in the Gulf of Alaska and encompasses roughly 5,000 square miles of land. By itself, Kodiak Island is 3,588 square miles making it the second largest island in the United States. The Kodiak Island Borough includes all of the archipelago and the Shelikof Strait shore -side lands of Katmai National Park. The Island of Kodiak consists primarily of mountainous terrain, with most peaks ranging between 3,000 and 4,000 feet. The uplands are drained by relatively short, swift, and clear mountain streams. The population of the Kodiak Island Borough, according to the Department of Labor 2010 population number is 13,592. The highest concentration of residents is in the City of Kodiak and the road - connected vicinity surrounding the city. The remainder of the population is distributed among the six remote Native communities around the island. Economy The economy of Kodiak is predominantly resource - based, depending on fish harvesting and seafood processing as its largest basic industry. The seafood processing industry provides 22% of the employment in Kodiak. The fish harvesting sector, which is not covered by the state mandatory unemployment security tax (making employment statistics unavailable), represents an estimated 9% of Kodiak's employment. This figure is based on the number of fishing permits held in the Kodiak area and crew factors predicated on the fishery and type of gear used. The timber industry is another resource -based segment of Kodiak's economy. Almost all of the timber is located on Afognak Island, the second largest island in the archipelago.. With the economic downturn in Asia, the primary market for Kodiak timber, there has been a steady decline in exports of lumber. During 2007, the harvesters of this private timber paid a severance tax of over $57 thousand to the Kodiak Island Borough. Other significant sectors of the economy are government, tourism and the aerospace industry. Government (not including the U.S. Coast Guard) constitutes 18% of the Kodiak economy by employment. The Coast Guard alone accounts for 18% of Kodiak's employment. The visitor industry in Kodiak continues to grow and generated estimated revenue of over $15 million in 2005. The Kodiak Launch Complex (KLC) is the nation's first launch facility not located on federal property and is positioned to meet the challenges and define Alaska's future role in a highly competitive launch industry. The KLC celebrated its first mission November 15, 1998. To date, 15 successful missions have been launched. In 2009 the Alaska Aerospace Development Corporation (AADC) formally changed its name to the Alaska Aerospace Corporation (AAC). The economic impacts of AAC's operations and projects in FY 2010 supported 44 local businesses. The total direct, indirect and included local impacts to Kodiak's regional economy alone amounted to $6.3 million, generating 59 Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 4 local jobs with $3.7 million in local payments for wage and salaries. AAC's expenditures for goods and services, including subcontractor services, generated about $4.6 million in direct payments to businesses operating in Kodiak. This spending was distributed among 44 local businesses and increased business activities in 25 different industries or sectors in the Kodiak regional economy. These sectors include construction, retail, various professional and technical services, computer design, wholesale trade, and a variety of hospitality and leisure sectors. In terms of employment, AAC supports 29 Kodiak -based full time equivalent jobs and paid about $2.2 million in wages. The KLC attracted just fewer than 660 visits to Kodiak (255 mission and 404 non - mission). The mission related visits contributed approximately $101,200 in sales for hotels, restaurants, and other retail service sectors, while non - mission visits contributed $163,700. The direct, indirect, and included spending for mission and non - mission related visits contributed $347,800 in business sales and $128,900 in wages for the local economy. Issues The major economic development issue faced by the area is the need for diversification, both in seafood harvesting /processing and in the economy in general. Unemployment in Kodiak is highly volatile, ranging from less than 6% to a little over 11% in 2010, due to the seasonal nature of the fishing industry. Most of the fish products exported from Kodiak are only minimally processed (usually only headed and gutted). Bringing stability to the seafood processing industry by diversifying into additional areas of value - added (secondary) processing, while at the same time diversifying the economy as a whole, is therefore a major economic development goal for Kodiak Island. Economic development in the remote outlying communities is also an important issue. Most of the communities have aging infrastructure that need upgrading to achieve economic growth. Comprehensive and coordinated planning with the city governments, tribal councils, and area Native associations and corporations will be necessary to overcome these obstacles. The communities have access to the natural resources of the island and the sea, providing an opportunity for economic development in the fish harvesting, seafood processing, and visitor industries as infrastructure constraints are overcome. ORGANIZATION & MANAGEMENT- THE CEDS COMMITTEE The Kodiak Area Chamber of Commerce, having been contracted by the City of Kodiak and the Kodiak Island Borough to provide specific economic development activities, has assembled a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Committee. The Committee consists of twenty -five members, all of who are residents of the Kodiak Island Borough and represent a cross section of the socioeconomic structure of the community. At the April 19 2001 meeting, the CEDS Committee adopted the following Mission Statement: "to help develop strong economies and healthy communities by providing leadership and information to increase Kodiak Island's economic position."

The advent of Russian occupation, with the introduction of salt, paved the way for commercial salmon harvesting. The first salmon cannery was built on the Karluk spit in 1882 to take advantage of the huge sockeye runs. By 1889, 5 canneries were operating on the mouth of the Karluk River. Between 1887 and 1928 records indicate that the sockeye harvest ranged between 1,004,500 (1887) to 4,826,200 fish (1901). Intense competition led to the expansion of commercial fishing into other species of salmon. From 1984 to 1999 the average ex- vessel value of the salmon harvest has been $88.3 million. A record harvest of 39 million salmon occurred during 1993 in the Kodiak Management Area (KMA). Kodiak's highly productive salmon industry is due in part to the fact that there are over 800 salmon streams in the KMA. Before 1950, most Kodiak processing facilities were devoted to salmon. In 1950, 60,000 pounds of king crab were landed and processing capacity was added by building new plants and expanding older ones. The king crab fishery became a major force in Kodiak's economy from 1950 to 1959 as the catch increased from 60,000 to 21 million pounds. In 1968 the City of Kodiak became the largest fishing port in the United States in terms of ex- vessel value. In the late 1960s and the early 1970s when harvest levels began to fall, several processors made the decision to relocate to Unalaska and Dutch Harbor to be closer to the crab supply. This diverted part of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Island harvest away from Kodiak. The 1982/83 season king crab harvest of 8.7 million pounds was the lowest in 24 years, followed by a closure of the fishery by the Department of Fish and Game due to poor stock condition. In 2004, 873,235 pounds of King Crab was landed at the Port of Kodiak. The 1950s also marked the beginning of the Kodiak Shrimp fishery, with a harvest of 31,886 pounds in 1958. The fishery grew rapidly to an annual catch of 10 to 12 million pounds in the early 1960s. The fishery slowed when shore plants and the fishing fleet were badly damaged by the 1964 earthquake and tidal wave, but then grew rapidly to a peak of 82.2 million pounds in 1971. As Kodiak shrimp catches declined in the late 1970s, much of the vessel effort shifted into the Chignik and South Peninsula areas until those areas demonstrated similar declines in the late 1970s. In 2002, less than 3,000 pounds of shrimp was landed at the Port of Kodiak. As the rate of return for Kodiak processing plants declined due to increased competition for resources and over - harvesting, major efforts were made to develop the groundfish fishery. Throughout the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s the ex- vessel value of the groundfish landings in Kodiak increased from $528,000 to over $64 million, making this one of Kodiak's most valuable fisheries. Fish processing has provided from ten to nearly forty percent of the total industrial payroll in Kodiak since 1980. Those sectors of the Kodiak economy not directly engaged in fishing consist largely of support services for the fishing industry, or of enterprises that support the people who engage in fishing activities or its support. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 7 Today, fish harvesting and seafood processing still dominate the employment opportunity in Kodiak. Together, these two industries provided a combined 27% of total employment in Kodiak for 2005. General Description of the Area The Kodiak Island Archipelago is located in the Gulf of Alaska about 30 miles across Shelikof Strait, and 252 air miles southwest of Anchorage. The island group is approximately 177 miles long and 67 miles across, extending from the Barren Islands on the north, to Chirikof Island and the Semidi Islands group on the south. The Archipelago encompasses roughly 5,000 square miles of land, no point of which is more than 15 miles from the sea. Kodiak Island's 3,588 square miles make it the second largest island in the United States (only the island of Hawaii is larger). The second largest island of the archipelago is Afognak, located north of Kodiak Island. The Kodiak Island Borough includes all of the archipelago and the Shelikof Strait shore -side lands of Katmai National Park. Kodiak Island consists primarily of mountainous terrain, with the ridge of the mountains running northeast- southwest. Although several peaks are greater than 4,000 feet, most range between 3,000 and 4,000 feet. About 40 small cirque glaciers (none greater than 2 miles) are evident along the main divide. Numerous hanging valleys feed into the main canyons radiating from the central divide. The uplands are drained by relatively short, swift and clear mountain streams. The Barren Islands to the north of Shuyak Island are primarily rocky stapes. Tugidak Island on the south is relatively flat and supports extensive areas of wet and moist tundra. The outlying islands south of the Trinity Islands are lower in elevation than Kodiak Island and support more limited vegetation growth. From Shuyak Island to northeastern Kodiak Island, stands of Sitka spruce dominate land from shore to the treeline. These stands extend south to a general northwest - southeast dividing line running from Kupreanof Peninsula to Cape Chiniak. Southwest Kodiak Island is relatively flat and supports extensive areas of wet and moist tundra. Exposed bedrock and shallow soils prevail along the 2500 -mile rugged coastline. Northwest Kodiak shows effects of glaciation, with long, narrow fjords and U- shaped valleys. These lie perpendicular to the mountains and the geologic fault lines. Rivers typically enter at the heads of the fjords and are backed by extensive flat lands. The east and southeast coasts of the Archipelago are characterized by shorter, wider estuarine embayments. Southwest Kodiak Island and the Trinity Islands tend toward long, continuous shorelines with few bays. Most of the sandy beaches occur on the west coast of Kodiak Island and the Trinity Islands. Specific geographic features within the Kodiak Island Borough include: offshore areas; estuaries; lagoons; wetlands and tidelands; rocky islands and sea - cliffs; exposed high - energy coasts; rivers, streams, and lakes; and important upland areas. Offshore Areas: Offshore areas include submerged lands and waters beyond mean lower low water to the limit of Kodiak Island Borough. Because of the extensive estuarine system of the Borough, offshore areas are those outside the headlands of the estuaries. Living resources are abundant in the Borough's offshore area. Dominant fauna include shellfish, finfish, marine mammals, and marine birds. Kelp and other macroalgal beds provide habitat for sea otters, spawning herring, and juvenile fish. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 8 They are important feeding areas for waterfowl and marine birds, and provide valuable primary production exported as algal drift, which is assimilated elsewhere in the marine ecosystem. Estuaries: In the borough, most nearshore marine waters are designated as estuarine because of their extensive dilution by fresh water. Estuarine areas are considered to extend from headland to headland of bays, inlets, and fjords. Well - developed delta systems, apparently dominated by tidal action, lie at the head of most Kodiak fjords. Kodiak estuarine areas are highly productive. The complexity of the submarine topography and sediments and good algae growth, including extensive kelp beds, provide basic nutrients and diverse habitat to support herbivore and carnivore populations. In addition, many marine finfish and shellfish utilize the estuarine areas during larval and juvenile stages of development. Lagoons: Lagoons are most prevalent in the south and southwestern portions of the Archipelago. Unlike other estuarine systems of the Islands, lagoons included in this habitat are shallow and tend to have sandy or flat shorelines. Wetlands and Tideflats: The presence of coastal tidelands surrounding the Kodiak Archipelago is relatively low; however, the actual amount of habitat varies by region. Kodiak and Afognak Islands have very limited tideflat wetland complexes. Extensive tideflat- wetland complexes usually occur only at the heads of bays or around lagoons on these islands. In addition to these saltwater habitats, large inland wetlands occur in the Karluk River and Ayakulik River drainages in southwestern Kodiak. In sharp contrast to the availability of these habitat types on Kodiak and Afognak Islands, shorelines around the Trinity Islands contain extensive tideflats, and most of the Tugidak Island mainland is wetland habitat. Tideflat- wetland complexes provide valuable habitat for birds and marine mammals, particularly when used in combination with adjacent waters. In addition, the tideflat areas, especially those that are composed of sandy beaches, provide habitat for abundant clam and polychaete populations. Rocky Islands and Seacliffs: Rocky islands generally have rock or cliff-lined shorelines. Occasionally rocky islands have tundra - vegetated interiors or areas along their coasts that are fairly level. This habitat category applies to most of the offshore islands. Along the coast of the major islands, however, this habitat type is limited to those shores with vertical cliffs. Offshore rocky islands and seacliffs are particularly important to marine mammals and marine birds as haulout and nesting sites. Many of these sites are along the east coast of Kodiak Island in the vicinity of Chiniak and Ugak Bays. The remaining sites are distributed around the archipelago and along the shoreline on the west side of Shelikof Strait. Exposed High- Energy Coasts: Exposed bedrock shores comprise approximately 50 percent of Kodiak and Afognak Islands, and a large percentage of the Alaska Peninsula coastline on the west side of Shelikof Strait. Almost 90 percent of the Barren Islands are exposed bedrock. Exposed bedrock shores usually have moderate to steep gradients. Exposed high- energy coasts provide habitat for a variety of marine littoral - zone flora and fauna, which in turn are used by important fish and wildlife resources. In addition, high- energy coasts provide feeding and nesting habitat for bird species and a food source and resting habitat for marine mammals. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 9 Rivers, Streams, and Lakes: The largest lakes and longest rivers within the Borough are located in southwest Kodiak Island. Major southwest lakes include Karluk, Frazer, Red, AkaJura, and South Olga lakes. Other important lake systems on Kodiak Island, such as Spiridon, Little River, Uganik, Terror, Buskin, and Lake Rose Tead, are significantly smaller. Small pothole and high mountain lakes are also prevalent. Pothole lakes are generally found along the Upper Ayakulik River, between Olga Bay and the ocean, at the mid -reach of the Karluk River, on the Lower Aluilik Peninsula, and throughout Tugidak Island. Pothole lakes are also prevalent in the north and northeast sections of Afognak Island and on Shuyak Island. Major lakes on Afognak Island include: Selief Lake, Afognak Lake, Big and Little Kitoi Lakes, Pauls, Laura, and Gretchen Lakes, Portage Lake, Little Waterfall Lake, Hidden Lake, and Upper and Lower Melina Lakes. Due to the steep topography of the Aleutian Range mountains on the west side of Shelikof Strait, there are few lakes located in that area of the Kodiak Island Borough. With the exception of the Ayakulik and Karluk rivers in southwest Kodiak Island, rivers in the archipelago tend to be short and steep, often originating in small mountain lakes or small glaciers. Rivers, streams, and lakes provide critical aquatic habitat for resident and anadromous fish populations. In addition, they support summer and winter activities of bird and mammal populations, particularly waterfowl, bear, beaver, and land otters. Rivers and streams are the conduit for the freshwater component of estuarine systems, and serve as a valuable link between upland and marine environments. Uplands: The archipelago uplands can be subdivided into four general areas based primarily on vegetative and terrain features. These areas are; (1) north of Kodiak Island, (2) the major portion of Kodiak Island, (3) southwest of Kodiak Island, lower Aliulik Peninsula, and the Trinity Islands, and (4) the Alaska Peninsula coastline west of Shelikof Strait. The first category, characterized by well - developed stands of mature Sitka spruce, includes Shuyak, Afognak, Raspberry, Whale, Spruce, and Marmot Islands. The major portion of Kodiak Island forms the second category of uplands. Upland habitat distributions are closely related to differences in elevation. At very high elevations, unconsolidated material is generally absent. Below the peaks, mountainous areas have typical alpine vegetation. Steep mountains below 3,000 feet have dense shrub and ground cover. Lower slopes and valley floors are covered by sand and gravel of glacial origin, valley alluvium, alluvial fans, talus deposits, and ash from the 1912 eruption of Mt. Katmai. Cottonwood and occasionally Kenai birch are common stands along the lower reaches of major drainages. The third region includes southwest Kodiak Island and the Trinity Islands. This region escaped glaciation and is vegetatively and topographically different from the rest of the Kodiak Archipelago. Plants are uniquely similar to species found in the Alaskan Arctic and unlike those found elsewhere in the Archipelago. The area is characterized by extensive moist and wet tundra surrounded by rounded low hills. The upland terrain along the west side of Shelikof Strait is dominated by the northeast - southwest trending mountains of the Aleutian Range. The short, steep - gradient drainages to the Gulf of Alaska are generally situated in steep valleys with cottonwood stands along the stream courses. At higher elevations, the vegetation is characteristic alpine tundra and bare rock and soil. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 10 Land Use and Ownership: Borough Lands - The Kodiak Island Borough owns roughly 30,000 acres of land within the Borough. Most of this land was originally obtained and selected under municipal entitlement from the State of Alaska; the configurations of other parcels are the result of land trades with the State and occasional tax foreclosures. The majority of Borough land is located on Raspberry Island; Ugak Bay and Hidden Basin also include numerous pockets that total a sizeable portion of Borough land acreage. Lease and disposal of Borough lands are subject to review by the Planning and Zoning Commission and approval by the Borough Assembly. The Kodiak Island Borough zoning ordinance contains 18 zoning districts: Watershed (W); Wildlife Habitat (WH), Natural Use Lands (NU); Conservation (C); Rural Development (RD); Rural Residential (RR); Rural Residential One (RR1); Rural Residential Two (RR2); Single Family Residential (R1); Two Family Residential (R2); Multi - Family Residential (R3); Business (B); Rural Neighborhood Commercial (RNC); Urban Neighborhood Commercial (UNC); Retail Business (RB); Light Industrial (LI); Industrial (I); and Public Use Lands (PL). Three special use codes are used for mobile homes, zero lot line residential and sing residential occupancy (SRO). Recreational land use includes 11 borough parks totaling 60 acres in size. State Lands - The most significant State lands in the Borough are the vast tidelands. The State also owns a significant amount of upland area in the Borough. Most State uplands are in the northeast part of the Borough near the City of Kodiak, south around Ugak Bay to Dangerous Cape, northeast Afognak Island and Shuyak Island. The Division of State Parks within the Alaska Department of Natural Resources (DNR) manages all state parkland in the Borough. A few areas have had management authority transferred to other State agencies. In 2004/05 DNR completed the Area plan for Alaska State Lands that provided a land use policy for all state lands not assigned to a specific agency. The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities manage roads and airport facilities, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF &G) manages the Tugidak Island Critical Habitat Area and the Division of State Parks within DNR manages state parklands. State parks accessible by road include: Fort Abercrombie, Buskin River and Pasagshak State Recreation Sites. Most of Shuyak Island and a large portion of northeast Afognak Island are undeveloped state parks accessible only by water or air. In total, 5 state parks throughout Kodiak Island comprise 96,228 acres. Federal Lands - Much of the Borough contains land managed by federal authorities. The major federal landowner in the Borough is the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). USFWS manages the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge (KNWR), which comprises 1.8 million acres of the archipelago, the Becharof and Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge (APNWR), and the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge (AMNWR). The USFWS is the largest single landowner in the Borough. The Borough boundary on the west, across Shelikof Strait, includes a portion of Katmai National Park managed by the Department of the Interior, National Park Service. The refuges are managed primarily for wildlife, yet allow a wide variety of recreational and commercial uses that do not interfere with the primary purpose of each refuge. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), Department of Homeland Security, manages several important facilities on Kodiak Island. The U.S. Coast Guard base Kodiak, which is Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 11 located near the Kodiak urban area, contains over 21,000 acres. The base complex provides infrastructure to support several Coast Guard Cutters, Air Station Kodiak, Integrated Support Command Kodiak, Communications Station Kodiak, Loran Station Kodiak, Electronic Support Unit Kodiak, North Pacific Fisheries Training Center, Marine Safety Detachment Kodiak, plus several other Coast Guard detachments. The U.S. Navy SEAL (Sea, Air, and Land Special Operations) Cold Weather Training Detachment is housed on the base facilities at Spruce Cape. Other tenants located on the main complex include the Federal Aviation Administration, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the National Weather Service, and the National Marine Fisheries Service. The US Coast Guard base contains a full range of facilities and land uses usually associated with a major urban area, including recreational, residential, institutional, and commercial. The uses of land on the base and other federal facilities are generally exempt from local regulation. However, the uses are subject to federal requirements such as the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and other environmental laws such as the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. A portion of the scattered small rural parcels in the Borough are federal trust lands. Except for Native Allotments and Federal Townsite lots, no other federal trust lands, such as Indian reservations, exist in the Borough. These parcels are held in trust by the federal government in the name of the owner. The activities on the parcel and any transfer of title must be approved by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). Since they are federal trust lands, the parcels are exempt from most local and state regulations, as well as taxation, until ownership is transferred. Federal environmental laws such as NEPA and the Clean Air and Water Acts do apply. Private Lands - The greatest growth among land ownership categories in the Borough has been privately held lands. Most of the lands selected by the Native regional corporation, Koniag, and the village corporations have been transferred for management or patented to the corporations. Over 675,000 acres of land have been transferred to these private corporations. This amounts to about 14 percent of the total land mass of the Borough. Much of this acreage, such as that on Afognak Island, was selected for timber resources or other development potential. However, some of this acreage was selected from within Wildlife Refuges and contains areas with high habitat values for fish and wildlife. The surface estate to former Wildlife Refuge lands is subject to regulation to ensure its protection in a manner compatible with the management objectives of the Wildlife Refuges and the subsurface estate (mineral rights) to such land was retained by the federal government. Except for lands previously part of a Wildlife Refuge, the subsurface estate of all Native lands is owned by Koniag, Inc. Population and Urban Centers: The total 2010 population of the Kodiak Island Borough is 13,592. Following are descriptions of the major population areas: The City of Kodiak is located near the northeastern tip of Kodiak Island. The city is 45 minutes by air from Anchorage and just over 3 hours flight time from Seattle. The Alaska State Ferries, the MN Tustumena and MN Kennicott, connect Kodiak with Port Lions and the communities of the Kenai Peninsula. The Kodiak State Airport has three paved runways of various lengths with FAA tower services. Kodiak also features a Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 12 municipal airport with a 2,883 foot paved runway. There are floatplane facilities at Lilly Lake, St. Paul Harbor, and Trident Basin on Near Island. The city is served by two airlines conducting a total of 7 flights daily between Anchorage and Kodiak. Kodiak is also served by two all -cargo carriers and one scheduled intra - island carrier. The Port of Kodiak Municipal Harbor, owned by the City of Kodiak, is home to Alaska's largest fishing fleet, having a total of 650 slips. The City of Kodiak has 6,130 residents. The surrounding road - connected residential areas are Chiniak, Monashka Bay, Service District 1, the U.S. Coast Guard base, and Women's Bay. The combined population of these areas is approximately 6,000. In addition to the City of Kodiak and vicinity, other population concentrations include the six Native communities found in the archipelago: Ouzinkie is located on the southwest shore of Spruce Island which lies just off the northeast end of Kodiak Island in the Gulf of Alaska. The community of Ouzinkie is 10 air miles north of the City of Kodiak, and 247 air miles southwest of Anchorage. Spruce Island is characterized by swampy areas, volcanic and sedimentary rock, and an abundance of tall spruce trees. Ouzinkie was founded in the early 1800s by the Russian American Company as the site of a retirement community. The current estimated population of Ouzinkie is 161. MN Lazy Bay, an Intra- Kodiak Island marine cargo vessel, delivers freight on demand from Kodiak. The state of Alaska's 2,500 -foot gravel runway is maintained by the City. There is no crosswind runway or tower service. Island Air Service makes scheduled passenger and mail trips to Ouzinkie. Charter service between the City of Kodiak and Ouzinkie is also available from several charter air services. Port Lions is located near the mouth of Kizhuyak Bay on the north end of Kodiak Island near Whale Island the City of Kodiak and the Shelikof Strait. The City of Kodiak is 19 air miles to the southeast, with Anchorage 247 air miles to the northeast. The mountainous terrain is covered with Sitka spruce, cottonwood, birch, alder and willow trees. Port Lions was established following the partial destruction of Afognak Village, on Afognak Island, by a tsunami in 1964. Approximately 194 people live in Port Lions. From March through September, the State of Alaska's MN Tustumena ferry stops at Port Lions. The 2,600 -foot State -owned gravel airstrip can accommodate small twin - engine aircraft. There is no crosswind runway or tower service. Island Air Service and Servant Air provide mail and passenger service. Charter air service between Port Lions and the City of Kodiak is also available. Float planes can land at the harbor. The 12 miles of gravel- surfaced roads are maintained by the City of Port Lions. Larsen Bay is located near the junction of Larsen Bay and Uyak Bay fjords on the northwest coast of Kodiak Island. Larsen Bay is 60 miles southwest of the City of Kodiak, and 283 miles southwest of Anchorage. Larsen Bay is situated in a valley between tree and shrub covered hills and mountains. The village of Larsen Bay has been an Alutiiq village for centuries. Russian fur traders brought trade to the area during the mid- 1700s. A commercial fish cannery was first established in Larsen Bay in 1912. There are approximatly 87 residents of the village. During the summer months the village of Larsen Bay more than doubles in population as commercial fishing gets underway. Summer and fall are also characterized by an influx of tourists seeking to go sport- fishing, bear viewing, deer and waterfowl hunting, and sight- seeing. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 13 MN Lazy Bay makes trips from Kodiak upon request and Coastal Transportation has two scheduled stops a year. The State of Alaska's 2,500 -foot gravel runway has no crosswind runway or tower services. Regular passenger and mail services are provided by Island Air Service. The community is also served daily by several air services from Kodiak. Floatplanes land in the bay near the community. The 3.5 miles of gravel roadway are maintained by the City of Larsen Bay. Karluk is located on the northwest side of Kodiak Island facing the Shelikof Strait. Karluk is 67 air miles southwest of the City of Kodiak, and 301 air miles southwest of Anchorage. The terrain of the area is characterized by low -lying mountains laced with rivers and streams. The Karluk River runs through the community and features all five species of salmon. In 1786, a permanent community was established as a Russian trading post. In the early 1900s Karluk was a major salmon producing community with several canneries processing millions of fish. A prominent feature in the community is the Karluk Russian Orthodox Church, a historical landmark. There are about 37 people residing in Karluk. The State of Alaska's 1,700 -foot runway can accommodate a Cessna 208 caravan. There is no crosswind runway or control tower. Island Air Service provides regular passenger service. There is about one mile of gravel road in the community. Akhiok is situated on the west side of Alitak Bay between Kemph Bay and Moser Bay on the south end of Kodiak Island. It is about 98 air miles southwest of Kodiak City. The local shoreline is characterized by narrow rocky beaches with a gradual incline up to surrounding uplands. The terrain around Akhiok is low hills and tundra like valleys and flat land. The village site was established in 1881. The tsunami of 1964 destroyed the village of Kaguyak, just to the east of Akhiok, and all the Kaguyak villagers were relocated to Akhiok. There are about 71 people living in this strong Orthodox faith -based community. Residents of the community are predominantly Aleut with a small number of Caucasian and Filipino. The serene, beautiful village is home to an abundance of animal life including the Sitka black tail deer, five species of salmon and many other salt water fish species; all of which sustain the subsistence lifestyle of the majority of Akhiok residents. Currently, twenty -two Alutiiq dancers, ranging in age from 2 years to adulthood perform for visitors and across the state of Alaska. Access to Akhiok is by water or air. Island Air Service provides daily service from Kodiak to Akhiok. Charter flights are also available from other island -based carriers. The State of Alaska operates a 3,120 -foot runway south of the town. There is no crosswind runway or tower service. The facility can be used by wheeled general aviation and amphibious float - planes. Old Harbor is located on the southeast side of Kodiak Island on Sitkalidak Strait off the Gulf of Alaska. The community is about 50 miles southwest of Kodiak and 300 miles southwest of Anchorage. The Alutiiq people settled Old Harbor more than 7,000 years ago. The community is the site of the first Russian colony in Alaska. There are about 218 people living in Old Harbor. Old Harbor is the site of a historic Russian Orthodox Church. Old Harbor's economy is based on commercial fishing. Tourism is also a growing part of the economy. MN Lazy Bay offers service between Kodiak and Old Harbor. The State of Alaska owns and operates the 2,800 -foot runway that can accommodate twin otter aircraft. No flight Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 14 tower or crosswind runway is available. Island Air Service and Servant Air provide regular passenger and mail service to Old Harbor. The village is also served by several charter air services on a daily basis from the City of Kodiak. Remainder of Borough. Remote areas of the borough, including Kazakof Bay on Afognak Island (the site of two logging camps), have a total population of approximately 300 people.

The Sitka spruce forested area of the Borough continues to expand from its initial occurrence on the northern islands toward both the South and West. Due to the nature of the relatively young emerging stands, the initial open -grown trees have less natural pruning and subsequently exhibit more knots than would similar trees in mature stands or second growth stands with higher volumes per acre. The stands now in place are relatively short in comparison to the more highly developed stands of Southeast Alaska -130 feet as compared to 200 feet in total height. Second growth stands that develop with natural regeneration following clear- cutting will produce more recoverable volume per acre and higher sawlog grades in a shorter period of time than the present stands contain. Approximately two- thirds of the timber recovered from the existing stands is grade 2 or better sawlog material while the remainder is grades 3 and 4 sawlogs. During 2009, the harvesters of this private timber paid a severance tax of $5,872 to the Kodiak Island Borough. One forest products company operates within the Kodiak Island Borough, at Danger Bay. Another company A 1 Timber Consultant a Chehalis, Washington based company currently operates out of the Chiniak area. Through the end of 2010 A 1 has requested permits to harvest at least 16.5 million board feet of timber. A 1's logging operation is difficult to predict due to the uncertainty of the market. The reason for the decreased production is due to the decreased prices in Asia for our timber. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 16 Outer Continental Shelf The Kodiak Island Borough contains portions of sedimentary petroleum provinces or basins within the Cook Inlet Planning Area for Oil and Gas Lease 149. Three petroleum - exploration geologic plays are recognized in the sale area. A geologic play is a group of geologically related prospects with a similar hydrocarbon source, reservoir, and trapping mechanism. Only portions of two of these plays, the Mesozoic Structural Play, and the Mesozoic Stratigraphic Play, fall within the boundaries of the Kodiak Island Borough. The Mesozoic Structural Play covers most of the sale area, extending from the northeastern limit of the sale area in Cook Inlet into the northeastern portion of the Shelikof Strait in the Kodiak Island Borough. The Mesozoic Stratigraphic Play is best developed in the central and southern parts of the sale area, running the entire length of the Shelikof Strait and encompassing the northeastern half of the Strait as well as the shore -side lands of the Alaska Peninsula. The ultimate potential for the base case in the entire sale area (not all of which is located within the boundaries of the Kodiak Island Borough) is estimated to be 500 million barrels. The high side potential is estimated to be 1.2 million barrels. Resource estimates for only those portions of the Sale Area located within the Kodiak Island Borough are not available. Metallic Minerals Kodiak Island Borough contains two regional metal provinces —areas characterized by a distinct association or anomalous concentrations of metals. These provinces are also characterized by the potential for mineral development and concentrations of mining claim activity. The two metal provinces occupy the northwest half of the Borough. The province that extends along the northwest coast of the Borough is rated high for the occurrence of chromium and copper. The second province, which extends from near the northwest coast to the middle of the Borough is not rated high. The major commodities are gold and copper; the minor commodities are lead, zinc, silver, and tungsten. Exploration for minerals in the Borough has been sporadic and limited to areas of easy access. Nearly all the mineral claims and areas of related activity are located near water passages. The interior portions of the islands are relatively unexplored. It has been estimated that less than 20 percent of the Borough has been adequately prospected. Although no commercial metallic deposits have been discovered in the Archipelago, the potential is present in the form of adequate intrusive units and widespread host rocks. Historically, gold has been the major commodity found in the Borough, in both placer and lode deposits. Metallic mineral resource development has occurred in the past on a small scale, but at present there are no commercial -scale mining activities. Placer Deposits. Placer deposits occur along beaches and are believed to be the result of wave and current action on the tills and gravels that form the sea cliffs along portions of the northern and western coasts. A direct geologic relationship between the placer Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 17 gold and the gravels and tills has not been established since gold has not been found in these sediments. The ultimate source of the placer gold is probably quartz veins in the slates and graywacks of the interior part of the island. The probability of offshore placer gold deposits is considered low. Placer operations have generally been small -scale and worked from time to time. It has been estimated that $150,000 worth of gold was recovered from the beach sands in the early twentieth century. Very minor quantities of platinum and chromite were recovered with the placer gold. Magnetite and pyrite have also been recovered from placer deposits. Lode Deposits. Lode gold prospects, mainly in quartz veins, occur throughout the Borough. The gold lode deposits are associated with the quartz intrusives and with dikes and sills that are probably related at depth to the intrusives. The host rocks are generally slates and graywackes. The lode deposits were discovered in the late 1800s, and have been sporadically explored and worked since then. Load mining took place mostly before World War I and to a lesser extent until about 1935. None of the attempts to mine lodes has been commercially successful —with the possible exception of the Amok Claim at Uyak Bay. Several other gold lodes were prospected in the Uyak Bay area around the turn of the century. Some gold was probably taken out of these lodes by their discoverers, but there is no recorded production, and after minor development, they were abandoned. Assays on load of the east shore of Uganik Passage showed high gold tenor, and a small mill was installed on the property in 1935. There is no recorded production. Scheelite (tungsten ore) was found disseminated as fine grains and veinlets in quartzitic zones in graywacke on Chalet Mountain near the head of Anton Larsen Bay. Investigations on this ore in the late 1950s concluded that these deposits are not commercial. A copper prospect located on the northwestern side of Sitkalidak Island was examined in the late 1930s and early 1940s. At the time, the deposit was not considered commercial. Lode occurrences of other commodities, such as silver, lead, and zinc, have been reported. The occurrence of placer deposits of chromite and platinum suggests the presence of lode deposits along the northwest coast. Nonmetallic Minerals Thin beds of coal have been reported in Tertiary sediments in the eastern part of Kodiak and on Sitkinak Island. None of the coal exposed in surface outcrops has sufficient reserves to be considered commercial. A large sand and gravel deposit is located on one of the Trinity Islands. Shakmanof Cove Prospect: A granite deposit located at Kizhuyak Point which is accessible via Shakmanof Cove near the village of Ouzinkie has long been looked at as a significant hard rock source for Kodiak Island and other statewide needs. The area's surface rights are owned by Ouzinkie Native Corporation and subsurface rights are owned by Koniag Incorporated. Test results reveal a very strong, blocky and competent Granite rock. Taken together, the field investigation and laboratory analyses indicate that the Shackmanof granite is suitable for the following marketable rock products: - All Grades of riprap (DOT &PF highways and airports specifications) from Class I through IV (smallest to largest) Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 18 - Shore protection rock products (US Army Corps of Engineers) - Armor stone (DOT &PF airport spec) - Gradations of crushed aggregate including base course; surface course; aggregate for asphalt concrete pavement, concrete, cover coat and surface treatment, filter blanket and subbase (DOT &PF highway and airport specs) - Selected material types A, B, and C - Porous backfill - Gabion backfill Additional markets for the Shakmanof granite may include many other construction products based on high quality aggregate (soil cement, emulsified asphalt treated base course, etc.), and possibly architectural products such as granite facing, flooring, slabs, etc. Environmental Issues Endangered and Threatened Species Endangered or threatened species that occur in the Kodiak Island Borough, or may enter the area with varying frequency, include the following: Fin Whale (endangered): The North Pacific fin whale population, protected from commercial harvest by the IWC since 1976, currently lies between 14,620 and 18,630 individuals, less than half the estimated pre - exploitation population. In Alaska, some whales spend the summer feeding over the continental shelf in the Gulf of Alaska, including portions of lower Cook Inlet, Shelikof Strait, outer banks of the Kodiak archipelago, and along the Alaska Peninsula. Fall migration occurs from September to November with some fin whales consistently wintering in the Kodiak Island area, primarily observed in bays and inshore waters from northwestern to southwestern Kodiak Island and possibly the Gulf of Alaska; however, most of the North Pacific population is believed to winter far offshore at latitudes from central California to Baja California. Northward migrating fin whales enter the Gulf of Alaska from March to June, and peak occurrence in the Kodiak Island- northern Gulf of Alaska area is reached by May. Humpback Whale (endangered): The North Pacific humpback whale population, estimated to number 7,000 individuals, remains greatly depleted from pre - commercial whaling levels of about 15,000. Humpbacks were protected from commercial harvest by the IWC in 1966. Small numbers of humpbacks have been observed in bays of western and northwestern Kodiak Island. The limited data available suggest that waters along the south side of the Alaska Peninsula to the eastern Aleutians may be of particular importance to summering humpbacks. Substantial numbers of humpbacks have been sighted between the Kenai Peninsula and Afognak Island, with summer feeding aggregations occurring in Marmot Bay and Northeast Afognak Island. In the Barren Islands, as many as 50 individuals have been sighted simultaneously, with at least 100 present in local areas. Humpbacks are estimated to be present in this area from mid - May until late August or September. Sei Whale (endangered): The North Pacific sei whale population is estimated at 9,110 individuals; a definite trend for this species since its protection by the IWC in 1976 is not evident. Sei whales are found offshore in the Gulf of Alaska and south of the Aleutian Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 19 Islands in summer, with numbers peaking in May and June. Southward migration begins in August or September. Beluga Whale (threatened): Beluga whales in Cook Inlet have been listed as threatened under the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). Over - harvesting by native subsistence hunters has been identified as the cause for the steep population decline over the past decade. However, the MMPA listing, as well as a measure passed by Senator Stevens in Congress, has given the National Marine Fisheries Service the tools that it needs to regulate the native subsistence hunt. As a result, hunters have been limited to a small annual take, as compared to the 80 or more whales they were harvesting annually. The population has now begun to recover with the latest survey showing 435 whales, compared to 350 whales in 1998. Steller Sea Lion (threatened): The total adult/juvenile (nonpup) Steller (northern) sea lion population in Alaska was estimated to have been 28,658 animals in 1998 and declining, especially in the area from the central Aleutian Islands to at least the Kenai Peninsula in the Gulf of Alaska where a decrease of 66 percent since 1989 has occurred. An estimated 12,299 sea lions occupied the Gulf of Alaska (excluding southeast Alaska) in 1998. A number of sites rather evenly distributed around the Kodiak archipelago have been historically recognized as areas of sea lion concentration. The range of sea lion concentrations extends from the Barren Islands south to Chirikof Island and the Semidi Islands, and to the Alaska Peninsula shoreline on the west side of Shelikof Strait between Katmai Bay and Hallo Bay. Among them are the most important sea lion rookeries in the Gulf of Alaska including Sugarloaf Island, Marmot Island, and Chirikof Island. It is believed that sea lions use these sites year round with fewer present in winter. Aleutian Canada Goose: Current breeding range of the Aleutian Canada goose includes several islands in the central and western Aleutians, and Kiliktagik and Anowik Island in the Semidi Islands south of the Alaska Peninsula. Peak counts on the wintering areas (California, Oregon) suggest the current population is about 37,000 individuals. The Aleutian Canada Goose was reclassified from endangered to threatened status as of 1991. Due to the cooperative efforts of state, federal, private and international partners the Aleutian Canada Goose is on the verge of a dramatic recovery and will soon be removed from the list of threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. Steller Eider (threatened): In March 2000 the US Fish and Wildlife Service proposed to designate approximately 17,000 square miles of land and 8,440 square miles of marine waters as critical habitat for the Alaska- breeding population of Steller's eider, a threatened sea duck. There are three populations of Steller's eider. Two breed in Russia and one breeds in Alaska. Only the Alaska- breeding population is listed as threatened. The historical population size and distribution of Alaska- breeding Steller's eider are not well known, but biologists suspect both the population's breeding range and abundance have decreased significantly due to unknown causes. They estimate a few hundred to a few thousand birds now occupy the North Slope breeding grounds. Harbor Seal: Harbor seals are the prominent nearshore seal. Known areas of harbor seal haulout concentrations include the Barren Islands; the west shoreline of Shuyak Island; protected bays on the north and west shores of Afognak Island; bays and rocky promontories in Alitak Bay; the Trinity Islands; Chirikof Island and the Semidi Islands; Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 20 Wide Bay; Puale Bay; Kukak Bay; and the Kiukpalik Islands. Despite the fact that harbor seals do not generally congregate in dense colonies, more than 125 sites that contain high density seal populations have been identified around the Borough. Outstanding among these sites is Tugidak Island, historically one of the largest pupping season concentrations in the world. Between the mid -70s and 1990 the population of harbor seals in the Tugidak Island area declined approximately 90 %. In 1996, the mean count of harbor seals within the Kodiak Archipelago was estimated at 4,437. Scientists have not been able to identify the specific cause of the harbor seal population decline at Tugidak, but harbor seal populations have been observed to be in a severe decline throughout nearly all their areas of distribution in Alaska with the exception of Southeast Alaska. Although not listed as endangered or threatened, the harbor seal could possibly be soon designated as a "depleted species" under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. Northern Sea Otters (threatened): In November 2000 the US Fish and Wildlife Service published a notice in the Federal Register designating northern sea otters in the Aleutian Islands as candidates for protection under the Endangered Species Act. Because the Aleutians have long been considered a stronghold for the species, their severe decline over the past decade is a cause for concern. Recent data collected by both the Fish & Wildlife Service and the U.S. Geological Survey show that the sea otter population in the Aleutians has declined by 70% in the past 8 years. As few as 6,000 otters may remain in the entire Aleutian chain, down from a 1980s population estimate of between 50,000 and 100,000 animals. Biologists speculate that the cause of the decline may be due to increased predation by killer whales. Cultural /Historic Sites Character of Cultural Properties: People have lived in the Kodiak Archipelago for more than 7,500 years. The first islanders were Native Alaskans - the ancestors of the contemporary Alutiiq people. Well equipped for life in a maritime environment, they settled Kodiak's coast to harvest the wealth of local marine mammals and birds, fish and shellfish. In the late 18 century, the resources that had sustained the Alutiiq for millennia began attracting a diversity of colonists. Russian fur traders carne to the region to harvest sea otters, and they were followed by a succession of American, Scandinavian and Asian entrepreneurs who contributed to the development of the modern fishing and canning industries, and participated in the military build up that accompanied the World War II era. Evidence of this long cultural heritage is preserved in an abundance of cultural properties; archaeological sites and historic buildings. The Alaska Heritage Resources Survey (AHRS), the state maintained compendium of archaeological sites - records more than 1,000 sites for the region. This represents roughly 4% of all of Alaska's cultural properties in an area that covers less than 0.5% of the state's total land mass. This wealth of known sites reflects Kodiak's climate, high population densities and the region's history of archaeological research. Large prehistoric populations produced numerous sites that have resisted decay in the region's cool, wet environment and a number of these sites have been documented by scientists. Importantly, these sites represent only a portion of the past settlements preserved on the landscape. Each year Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 21 archaeologists add to the regional site inventory as unsurveyed areas are investigated and as sites are uncovered by erosion and development. The sites of the Kodiak region represent a diversity of activities. Prehistoric deposits include ancient coastal villages, stream -side camps, burial caves, stone fishing weirs, petroglyphs pecked into cliff faces, ridge -top cairns, stone quarries, and ancient trails. In addition to the stone tools commonly found in prehistoric settlements, many of Kodiak's sites also contain shell, bone, antler, and ivory objects. A rare few hold spectacular assemblages of wood and fiber artifacts. Many are also rich with architectural features, including house foundations, tent rings, hearths, clay -lined storage pits, slate boxes, and burials. This well preserved record documents thousands of years of continuous settlement and chronicles the adaptation of Native societies to the region's productive marine environment. Historic sites also provide an invaluable view of the past. From the Russian Orthodox churches found in Kodiak communities to the remains of sea otter hunting artels and historic cemeteries, nineteenth century salmon hatcheries and cannery buildings, and World War II era concrete bunkers, there is a wealth of material evidence documenting the intensive, multi - cultural forces that combined to create modern Kodiak. These sites occur both as archaeological deposits (e.g. buried deposits, building foundations, etc.) as well as contemporary features in the Kodiak community (e.g. standing structures, maintained cemeteries, etc.). This extensive archaeological record holds extremely valuable information about Kodiak's human history, particularly the period preceding European colonization for which there are no written records. Each site contains a unique piece of the archipelago's cultural history that is not preserved in any other place. Unfortunately, many of these sites continue to be damaged by natural and human forces. Erosion, site vandalism, and land development are the most common sources of disturbance. Erosion is a particularly wide spread problem. Winter storms, meandering rivers, and earthquakes remodel Kodiak's shoreline, causing coastal sites to slough into the ocean. Although illegal, recreational digging and artifact collecting have long been popular activities and continue to contribute to the destruction of sites. By removing objects from sites and disturbing their layers, vandals substantially decrease the information that scientists can recover. Oil spills are another potential source of site damage, through the direct deposition of oil, or through secondary oil transport by winds, storm tides, ground water migration, and the movement of birds and animals. One major injury caused by oil contamination is the inability to radiocarbon date contaminated materials. Additionally, increased access to remote coastal areas by cleanup crews can increase knowledge of site locations and accelerate site vandalism. National Register of Historic Places Sites in the Kodiak Archipelago: Seven of the roughly 1,000 sites listed on the AHRS for the Kodiak Archipelago are also listed on the National Register of Historic Places - the federal compendium of cultural significant properties. These sites, which largely reflect Kodiak's historic era, are summarized below. It is important to note that a very large proportion of the remaining sites listed on the AHRS may also be eligible for inclusion in the National Register. While the seven sites described are clearly important to Kodiak's history, they represent a tiny fraction of Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 22 the region's significant cultural resources. They are simply those that have been through the lengthy nomination process. Other sites will undoubtedly be added to the list. The Russian Kiln Site (049 -KOD -207: Located on Long Island off the east shore of Kodiak Island, this is one of the few historic sites associated with brick making, which was a subsidiary industry of the Russian American Company. The 3000 to 6000 bricks that were produced annually were used as ballast in the company's ships, in the construction of stoves to heat employee quarters, and in bathhouses. This site is considered to be significant for its contribution to the industrial history of Alaska. Subsistence caused by the 1964 earthquake has contributed to site erosion, scattering brick debris along the shore below the site. The Erskine House (049 -KOD -123): The Erskine House is located on Marine Way in downtown Kodiak. This building is the only standing structure in Kodiak associated with the Russian American Company and the Alaska Commercial Company, the two commercial enterprises that were controlling factors in the early administration of Alaska. Local tradition indicates the building was erected by Alexander Baranof about 1792 -3 as an office and fur warehouse. The building was constructed in a typical Russian - American style with rough -hewn square logs and a hipped roof. Numerous alterations have been made to the building, which is now being used as the Kodiak Historical Society's Baranov Museum. Fort Abercrombie State Historic Site (049 -KOD -137): Situated approximately five miles north of the City of Kodiak, the remains of this World War II era fort are representative of North Pacific coast defense installations. The site is strategically located atop a high headland, and commands a view of the surrounding straits and bays. Dense stands of mature Sitka spruce provide a natural camouflage for the fort. The area was withdrawn as a military reservation in 1941 but remained operational until 1945. The fort was named in honor of Lieutenant William H. Abercrombie, a noted Alaskan explorer of the late nineteenth century. Although Fort Abercrombie was never engaged in battle, its ruins are remnants of a time when foreign invasion was anticipated on American soil. The remains of the fort include concrete beds for gun emplacements, fragments of exploded armaments, cavernous magazines, and building foundations. The site is presently open to the public primarily for day -use activities. The Three Saints Site (049 -KOD -124): Located on the southeastern shore of Kodiak Island on the western shore of Three Saints Bay, this multi- component site contains a prehistoric occupation dating from 0 -900 A.D., followed by a historic occupation beginning in the 1700s. Excavation and analysis of the prehistoric site provided the basis for the definition of the Three Saints Bay Phase of the Kachemak Bay Tradition - a prehistoric era dating from roughly 2,400 to 800 years ago. Investigation of the historic component illustrates the site's connection to the Russian era. In 1784 the first Russian colony in America was established at Three Saints Bay and for eight years the colony served as the headquarters of the Shelikhov - Golikof Fur Company. The colony consisted of numerous log buildings including dwellings, bunkhouses, warehouses, commissary, barns, storage buildings, smithy, carpentry shop, and ropewalk. All of the buildings were destroyed as the result of subsistence resulting from earthquakes, and there are no surface remains today. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 23 Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church (049 -KOD -195): This 50 year -old church is the most distinguished architectural feature of the Kodiak skyline. The frame building is laid out on an apsidal - transect plan and covered with white shingles. All the windows are center pointed. A single extended church tower at the front is capped with the traditional Orthodox onion dome, painted blue. A second onion dome and supporting hexagonal tower surmount the medium gable trasept roof. A detached bell tower and several graves marked with marble monuments are also on the site. A church built between 1843 and 1867 originally occupied the site until it was destroyed by fire in 1943. The existing structure was erected in 1945. Only the detached bell tower is believed to have survived from the earlier church. Icons and religious objects, some dating from the early nineteenth century, adorn the interior. One icon, that of the Holy Resurrection (date 1793), was brought by Saint Herman (then Monk Herman) from Russia with the original party of Orthodox missionaries in 1794. The church is still used for Orthodox services. American Cemetery (049 -KOD -132): Other than the surroundings and the settling and shifting of pits, mounds, markers, and headstones; the expected attrition of age, the American Cemetery physically appeared much as it did when abandoned in 1940 for fifty years. The cemetery originated as a military cemetery to serve Fort Kodiak. This fort and military post was established with the American occupation of Alaska (Russian America) immediately after the purchase of the Territory. Five of the soldiers from the original fort are known to be buried there. Their names are listed in the National Archives, Old Military Records. In addition to these men, there exist two graves of Unknown Soldiers, and many local residents from 1868 to 1940, including G. G. Holt, the first white man to cross Chilkoot Pass. The Cemetery continued to be used by the Village and then the City of Kodiak until 1940. In 1990, the Alaska Societies of the Daughters of the American Colonists and the Daughters of the American Revolution renovated the site. Middle Bay Brick Kiln (049 -KOD -011): This site, located on the southeastern shoreline of Middle Bay, holds the remains of a colonial Russian brick kiln. Test excavations uncovered a portion of a brick platform, remnants of two brick walls, and a small standing brick arch. The site has been affected by erosion, and by recreational brick collecting. The standing arch may have been one of a number of features constructed to (a) support the kiln floor and (b) house the kiln fires. Kilns similar to this one continue to be used in the Near East. Brick kilns having arches for firing purposes were certainly being used in seventeenth century England. Such kilns allowed the hot air to circulate upward among the green bricks stacked within the kiln, the bricks being "baked" or "fired" in the process. While the documentary search did not uncover any references to Russian kilns, it is quite possible that brick firing techniques used in Western Europe would have been used in European Russia, and subsequently Russian America, as well. The structural remains uncovered at the KOD -011 represent an important subsidiary industry of Russian America. These features currently suggest that the site may have been the location of a type of kiln in general use for thousands of years, a type that might have been feasible for use by Russian colonists in America. The KOD -011 site Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 24 has enormous potential for increasing our understanding of Russian colonial brick making operations in the Western Hemisphere. Marine Archaeology: In addition to the archaeological sites on land, the continental shelf surrounding Kodiak also has the potential to hold important underwater sites. Eustatic sea -level changes since deglaciation have caused the region's coastline to vary dramatically. At the lower sea levels early residents may have occupied lands that are presently submerged, leaving valuable archaeological evidence on the sea floor. Additionally, the region may contain shipwrecks of historic importance.

Political Geography Kodiak was incorporated as a first class city in 1940. It is a home -rule city with a city manager /council form of government. There are six members on the city council, plus the mayor. There are eight departments in the municipality. They include: public works, finance, city engineering, parks & recreation, library, fire department, police department, and cargo dock /boat harbor. The Kodiak Island Borough was incorporated on September 24, 1963 as a second class borough with an elected Mayor and Assembly/ Manager form of government. Since that time the borough has been ruled by either a Mayor form of government or more recently a Manager form of government. By Alaska State Statute, the Kodiak Island Borough is responsible for four area -wide powers encompassing all of the Kodiak Island Borough: 1) Planning and Zoning, 2) Assessment and Taxation, 3) Education, and 4) Health (restricted to hospital and mental health services only). Non -area wide powers held by the Borough are: 1) Solid Waste Collection and Disposal, 2) Animal Control, 3) Parks and Recreation, 4) Economic Development, and 5) Special Service Districts for Roads, Water, Sewer, and Fire Protection. The KIB has 15 recreational facilities spread over 223 acres, and a boat launch located at Anton Larsen. The City of Kodiak and the Kodiak Island Borough provide joint animal control and facilities, and building inspection services. Real and property taxes are administered through the Kodiak Island Borough. The presence of the State of Alaska in Kodiak is primarily in the form of the Department of Fish and Game. Their role is to manage and regulate the fisheries in the region. Other State agencies in Kodiak are: Health and Social Services, Employment Center, Legislative Information, District Attorney, Public Defender, Vocational Rehabilitation, Department of Corrections, Adult Probation & Parole, Environmental Conservation, Alaska State Court System, National Guard, SW District Parks Division, Department of Transportation & Public Facilities, University of Alaska, Anchorage /Kodiak College, and the University of Alaska, Fairbanks (UAF) School of Fisheries and the Ocean Sciences, Fishery Industrial Technology Center. The federal agencies with the largest exposure in Kodiak are the Coast Guard and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NOAA divisions include the National Weather Service, National Ocean Survey, and National Marine Fisheries Service. The agency also performs duties related to the maritime environment, such as coastal zone management and marine mammal protection. Also located in Kodiak, but Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 25 with a more limited presence, are the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the United States Forest Service, and the United States Postal Service. The Native organizations that serve the Kodiak Island region are the Kodiak Area Native Association (KANA), Koniag, Inc., Natives of Kodiak, Inc., Leisnoi, Inc., Afognak Native Corporation, Ouzinkie Native Corporation, Akhiok - Kaguyak, Inc., Shoonaq' Tribe of Kodiak, and Old Harbor Native Corporation. KANA, a non - profit organization that was formed in 1966, provides direct social services such as health promotion, advocacy, community development planning, education, and manpower to Natives in its coverage area through grants primarily from the state and federal governments. Koniag, Inc. is the Regional Corporation formed after the passage of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA). Koniag's primary purpose is to manage the assets received pursuant to ANCSA. Ouzinkie was incorporated as a second class city in 1967. The seven members of the Ouzinkie City Council are elected to three -year staggered terms. The Mayor is elected from, and by, the City Council to a one -year term. Key city positions include the Mayor, City Clerk, and Utilities Clerk. The seven - member Ouzinkie Tribal Council meets on the third Wednesday of each month. The Council serves as the tribal government and addresses issues concerning Alaska Native members of the community. The Native Village of Ouzinkie is a federally recognized tribe. The City of Port Lions is a second class city within the Kodiak Island Borough and the state of Alaska. It was incorporated in 1966. The seven - member City Council is elected to staggered, three -year terms of office. The mayor is elected to a one -year term by the City Council. The Native Village of Port Lions is a federally recognized Tribe. The seven - member Port Lions Tribal Council is elected to three -year staggered terms of office by the Tribal membership. The Native Village of Port Lions administers a number of federal and state - funded programs and contracts. Key community individuals include the City Mayor, City Clerk, Village Public Safety Officer, Port Lions Tribal Council President, Tribal Administrator, CHA & CHR, Harbormaster, Roads Foreman, Water Plant Operator and Head Teacher. Larsen Bay incorporated as a second class city in 1974. The seven members of the Larsen Bay City Council are elected to three -year staggered terms. The mayor is a member of the City Council, and is elected by the membership of the City Council to a one -year term. The seven - member Larsen Bay Tribal Council serves as the tribal government for Alaska Native residents of Larsen Bay. Issues of concern to the tribal government include health care, social services, and tribal operations. Karluk is an unincorporated village within the Kodiak Island Borough. The village is governed by a seven - member Indian Reorganization Act (IRA) tribal council. Council members are elected to three -year staggered terms. Key positions within the IRA Council are the Village Clerk and Water /Sewer Operator. The City of Akhiok was incorporated in 1974 and is a second class city within the Kodiak Island Borough system. Akhiok has a seven - member city council from which the mayor and other officers are selected. The Tribal Council is recognized by the Bureau of Indian Affairs as the official tribal governing body of the community of Akhiok, and is eligible to administer a variety of federal programs, including local health care, Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 26 employment assistance and other social services. The Tribal Council assigns its federal contracting authority to the Kodiak Area Native Association (KANA) by resolution. KANA in turn, administers the programs and provides the services. Tribal Council members are elected according to an adopted constitution and bylaws. Elections are held at the same time as local municipal elections. Old Harbor was incorporated as a second class city in 1966. The seven City Council members are elected to three -year staggered terms. The mayor is elected from, and by, the membership of the Council. Old Harbor is a federally recognized tribe that provides a variety of programs to assist in the health and wellness of the community. The seven - member Tribal Council provides public safety and pre - school programs in Old Harbor, in addition to addressing issues of concern to the Alaska Native residents of the community. The City Council, Tribal Council and Old Harbor Native Corporation work in cooperation to accomplish common goals. Population and Labor Force The population of the Kodiak Island Borough is 13,592. Compared to the estimated 1985 population, we show zero population growth. Population peaked to slightly less than 15,000 in 1995. The decline in population may be due to the use of a new method of estimating population. Based on 2000 Census data, the median age of Kodiak's population is 31.6 years.

Based on the number of commercial fishing permits held by Kodiak residents and accepted crew ratios, annual commercial fishing employment is estimated to be 650 (the number of permits fished may not be equal to the number of permits held, which can be much higher). The shore -based seafood processing industry employs another 1,376 persons. Salmon, groundfish, crab, halibut, and herring are all important to the economy. Salmon has traditionally been the mainstay of Kodiak's fishing fleet, with 61 % of the Kodiak limited entry salmon permits owned by local residents (11% of these reside in the outlying villages of Old Harbor, Ouzinkie, Port Lions, Larsen Bay, and Akhiok). From 1977 to 1985, salmon ranked first among the major fisheries in both average value and weight landed. The harvesting sector of the Kodiak commercial fisheries industry was extensively transformed between 1975 and 1984. The value of the Kodiak fisheries increased from 1975 to 1981 as a result of crab prices but declined as stocks fell. Fisherman responded by diversifying into tanner crab, halibut, sablefish, and groundfish. Groundfish are becoming one of Kodiak's most valuable fisheries, therefore firms have diversified by producing quality groundfish products. Kodiak is consistently one of the top three fishing ports in the United States. The 2009 ex- vessel value of all fish coming into Kodiak was $115.5 million, and volume in 2009 was 293.9 million pounds. Commercial fishing provides revenue to the Kodiak Island Borough through a severance tax. The fish tax revenues collected during the borough's fiscal years 2010 and 2009 were $1,336,075 and $1,369,087, respectively.

These activities include: organizing an economic development committee, providing a full -time staff member for the committee, preparation of the area's Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) and the implementation of the action plans and development strategies described therein. Copies of these contracts are included in the Appendix. EVALUATION The CEDS Committee has identified several assets and liabilities of the area as they pertain to economic development. These are described below as they apply to specific areas of potential economic development: Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 42 Fisheries Assets and Opportunities. Kodiak's strong seafood processing labor force has been identified as one of its biggest assets. Due to the high levels of unemployment in the seafood processing industry during off - season periods, value- added, or secondary, processing of seafood products presents one of Kodiak's biggest opportunities in economic development. Currently, a significant amount of the fish product exported from Kodiak is minimally processed (usually only headed and gutted). Additional value - added seafood processing in Kodiak would provide employment for the existing labor force during otherwise slow periods when large numbers of workers are typically laid off. The implementation of the Individual Fishing Quotas (IFQ's), changed the halibut and black cod fisheries from "derby- style" fisheries in which large volumes of fish are delivered to the shore -based processing plants in very short time periods, to more evenly paced fisheries in which fish product deliveries are spread out over time, giving processing plants more time to add value to the product through secondary processing. Proposed rationalization of the fishing industry in the Gulf of Alaska would ensure coastal communities a steady stream of "fresh" fish over an extended period of time. Small boat fishers would not be disadvantaged due to inclement weather and by -catch would be reduced. Getting fish out in the "fresh" form, rather than fast frozen adds value to the product and may encourage the development of more "custom- processing" facilities. Several opportunities also exist for economic development in the seafood processing industry by achieving total utilization of fish products, so that every part of the fish is used with nothing discarded. Fish oil extraction and fishmeal production, from previously discarded fish parts are only two examples of this. In addition to increased profits and employment, the opportunity to minimize regulatory constraints on the shore - based processing industry will develop as the volume of discharge is reduced. Similarly, achieving total utilization of by -catch species, currently being thrown overboard, presents another opportunity for economic development. Harvesting and processing under - utilized species, such as the arrowtooth flounder (one of the most abundant groundfish species available in the waters harvested by Kodiak's fishing fleet) presents additional opportunities for economic growth and job creation in Kodiak. Kodiak Island is situated in the middle of one of the world's richest fishing grounds. Additionally, there are approximately 800 streams within the Kodiak Management Area (KMA) in which salmon migration or spawning has been documented. Supplemental production of salmon includes two hatcheries located in the KMA. Both hatcheries, Kitoi Bay and Pillar Creek, are operated by the Kodiak Regional Aquaculture Association (KRAA). The combined incubation of these two hatcheries is 263,000,000 eggs. The fish harvesting /production potential for Kodiak is therefore excellent. Another asset identified by the economic development committee is the Kodiak State Airport. The airport is centrally located in Southwest Alaska and has year -round access to an ice -free port. The Kodiak State Airport has the opportunity to become a trans- shipment point for fresh fish products. As Kodiak State Airport evolves into a regional Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 43 hub for the Southwest portion of the state, the opportunity for a reduction in shipping and freight rates can be realized. This will serve to benefit all sectors of the economy. Finally, several opportunities resulting from increased research into fisheries sciences can be realized, such as greater support for the seafood processing sector, increased levels of processing, and subsequently, increased employment in the industry. Increased research into the fisheries encourages greater investment by fisheries - related businesses. This entices more scientists and researchers to use facilities available in Kodiak, like the Fishery Industrial Technology Center and the Kodiak Fisheries Research Facility, as a base for study. Kodiak has become a national fisheries "research hub" with research being conducted in shellfish, groundfish, sustainable fisheries, domestic observer program, marine mammals, fisheries management, sport fishing, and wildlife conservation. Liabilities and Constraints. Several liabilities will have to be overcome for value - added seafood processing to develop to its full potential in Kodiak. First, the traditional distribution patterns of headed and gutted fish product to Puget Sound and Japan will be hard to break. Secondly, a lack of a cold storage facility means there is no place to store fish products until there is time to add value to them. One of the biggest obstacles to having a cold storage facility is the cost of electricity, which is approximately three times the cost of power in Seattle. A feasibility study on the use of waste heat to generate electricity in a standalone cold storage facility was recently conducted. The recommendation of the study was a centralized storage facility is not feasible, given the facility would not be utilized by the fish processing plants as most have their own cold storage facilities. However, there is a clear need for lower cost refrigeration and information on new electrical generation technologies has been made available to the fish processors. Another liability is the high shipping cost to import processing materials (packaging, breading, etc.), and to export finished seafood products. Open access to the halibut and black cod fisheries ended in 1995 with the implementation of the Individual Fishing Quota (IFQ) system of management. Quotas — shares of catch —are issued only to those who owned or leased vessels that fished for halibut between 1988 and 1990. Implementation of the IFQ system in the Gulf of Alaska has resulted in fleet consolidation. In 1995 at the start of the program, 4,829 fishermen were issued halibut quota shares and 1,054 were issued sablefish shares. At the end of 2007, 3,002 halibut and 857 sablefish quota share owners remained, condensing ownership in the combined fishery by 34 percent. A similar program was instituted in 2005 for the Bering Sea and Aleutian Island (BSAI) crab fisheries. In 2003 the BSAI crab fishery had 252 boats registered for king crab, 22 for golden crab and 192 for snow crab. By 2007 the BSAI fleet had downsized to just 74 boats for red king, 5 for golden king and 76 for snow crab. Fewer boats means less crewmen positions available for local residents.* Visitor Industry Assets and Opportunities. A "visitor" is typically perceived as a pleasure seeker, but for economic development purposes a "visitor" is defined as "a person who comes to spend time with or stay with others or in a place....for business, for social pleasure, for sightseeing, etc." One of the Kodiak visitor industry's biggest assets is the large amount Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 44 • of easily accessible public lands available for recreational use, such as hiking, sightseeing, fishing, and camping. In addition, Kodiak still offers visitors a uniqueness of character that other Alaskan communities are losing as they evolve into a mass - market destination. This has been identified as an opportunity for Kodiak to attract visitors as other Alaskan destinations reach saturation. Another asset is the local ownership of tourism - related businesses. Kodiak is also benefiting from the long -term effects of increased media exposure on a national and international level. Film projects such as National Geographic's "Island of the Giant Bears," Discovery Channel's features on the US Coast Guard Search and Rescue teams and Kodiak's diverse fishing industry, plus the Food Network's feature on "Cooking in Alaska" all serve to generate interest in Kodiak Island. The Hollywood adventure film "The Guardian" featured the United States Coast Guard Base stationed in Kodiak. Travel writers have featured Kodiak in many national and international publications. As eco- travel and soft adventure travel become increasingly popular, Kodiak is becoming a sought after travel destination. Infrastructure development to increase the meeting and convention capacity will create additional markets to be tapped. The opening of the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center in the downtown museum district in 2007 is expected to add visitor traffic to the downtown area. While the visitor industry in Kodiak has great potential for long term growth, it is viewed as the "weak sister" in the local economy. Liabilities and Constraints. From a revenue - producing standpoint, visitor consumption of scenic beauty may not always generate quantifiable income, although expenditures to view this beauty may be considerable. Kodiak's share of the state's visitor market is relatively low, and historic patterns of growth have not kept pace with statewide rates. Because of the high level of local ownership of tourism - related businesses, these businesses tend to be undercapitalized while Kodiak's destination marketing program remains under - funded. Kodiak is also hindered by a lack of sufficient tourism - related infrastructure necessary to handle a large influx of visitors, such as dedicated docking for cruise ships and charter boats, motor coaches, banquet facilities, public restrooms, etc. Small gains are being made to update or alleviate these problems, for example improvements to Pier II now allow small and large cruise ship to dock and several motor coaches are now on island. The lack of facilities to accommodate groups greater than 150 persons has deterred the attraction of large meetings and conventions to the community. However, its this lack of mass - market appeal that is one of Kodiak's strengths in the adventure /eco- travel market. Tourism related businesses are beginning to explore this market in depth. Finally, being a non - road- connected island, Kodiak is more difficult and costly to reach than other visitor destinations within the state. There is the perception by travelers that Kodiak is difficult to access because of poor weather conditions. In fact, 95% of scheduled commercial operations are completed annually. However, the lack of runway lights, navigation aids and poorly configured runways does create difficulties accessing the outlying communities in marginal weather. Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 45 Kodiak Island Communities Economic Development Assets and Opportunities. The off-road communities are located in close proximity to fish resources, particularly salmon, giving them ample access to fresh product. Likewise, being remote, the communities are also very close to the natural resources that attract many of the island's tourists, providing an opportunity to share in the island's visitor industry. Archaeological sites located near the communities also present the opportunity for "ancestral heritage tourism ". One example is the "Dig Afognak" program— visitors live in a working archaeological field camp located on Afognak Island and assist in artifact digs with a professional archaeological team. Opportunities also exist for the communities to benefit from small -scale cottage industry-level production of Native crafts or other goods. Liabilities and Constraints. Most of the off-road communities have aging infrastructure. Limited access to certain resources, for example, water for seafood processing, hinder economic development as well. Another obstacle to growth is the limited amount of human resources and job skills available in these communities. Poor weather conditions often reduce the ability of the communities to communicate with other communities and impose heavy restrictions on air and sea transportation linkages to the communities, none of which are road - connected to any other island community. With the exception of Port Lions, which is on the same power grid as the City of Kodiak, power costs are relatively very high in all of Kodiak's outlying communities. Land use issues between the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge and the communities also exist that could impede economic growth. Similarly, prehistoric archaeological sites located near the communities, a potential asset for tourism, may be a potential liability to economic development projects involving construction or other activities /uses inconsistent with the ancestral heritage and /or archaeological value of the site. Overall Economic Growth and Expansion A significant constraint, not limited to any one category of economic development within the Kodiak Island Borough, is the issue of high land values. Prices for privately owned land within the borough are relatively high due to topographical constraints and the availability of utilities. The Kodiak Island Borough has 4,800,000 acres within its boundaries. In 2001, federally held land was 3,400,000 acres, Native Corporations; 675,000 acres, State; 639,000 acres, local government; 70,000 acres, and private land; 16,000 acres. Development costs, due to the remoteness of the island, limit opportunities for the development of new industries and the expansion of existing ones. Protection of Cultural Properties There are many activities associated with economic development that have the potential to impact Kodiak's archaeological sites. The ground disturbance associated with the construction of new facilities - buildings, docks, roads, etc. has the potential to irreparably harm buried deposits. Similarly, the expansion of human access to remote areas may increase site vandalism, or promote site erosion through the development of trails, camps, boat launches, etc. As such, the effects of any development activity on Kodiak Island Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Page 46 local sites must be carefully considered and, where possible mitigated, to preserve Kodiak's cultural resources and the irreplaceable information they contain. Usually, the protection of cultural properties is the responsibility of the landowners. Under Alaska law, archaeological sites are considered part of surface estate, and therefore belong to the owner of the land on which they occur. On public lands (e.g. Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, US Coast Guard Reservation, Alaska State Parks) sites are protected by state and federal laws, most notably Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and its implementing regulations (36 CFR part 800). Under this law, any development project with the potential to disturb an archaeological deposit (known or unknown) must follow a well defined program of consultation with archaeologists and /or historians to avoid and /or mitigate negative impacts to significant cultural properties. This law is extended to projects on private lands when they involve federal or state dollars (e.g. grants, legislative appropriation) or federal or state permits (e.g. an Army Core of Engineers wetlands permit). When correctly implemented, this process preserves cultural resources without impeding development. As such, archaeological consultation should be part of the early stages of planning and budgeting for any economic development that will involve ground disturbing activities or has the possibility of promoting site disturbance. As the majority of Kodiak's cultural properties also reflect the heritage of the Alutiiq people, consultation with the Native community over the treatment of heritage sites is also imperative. Such consultation ensures that the community whose history the sites reflect are centrally involved in decisions regarding their care. Consultation should be the goal of every development project with the potential to impact cultural properties reflecting Native heritage. This consultation is required by the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) - a federal law - whenever human remains are present, regardless of land ownership. As many of Kodiak's prehistoric sites contain human remains, such consultation is both respectful and appropriate at the outset of any development project involving ground- disturbing activities. Establishing an agreement for the proper course of action should human remains be discovered saves time and money in the long run, and creates an atmosphere of mutual respect. The Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological Repository, a non - profit cultural organization governed by representatives of Kodiak's eight Alutiiq corporations, is an appropriate place to begin consultation. The museum maintains a staff of professional archaeologists familiar with the consultation process and the laws that govern the treatment of both archaeological sites and the remains of Native people.

Performance Evaluation Performance evaluation is an important component of the economic development process. Most simply, it gauges the organization's effectiveness in meeting its goals. To be effective, performance evaluation should be conducted on an ongoing basis and the results used to adjust or redirect organizational efforts. This Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) identifies four primary goals that give overall direction to the economic development efforts of the Kodiak CEDS Committee. Under each goal are a number of objectives that articulate specific types of activity that support CEDS goals. Finally, the CEDS identifies a menu of strategies that may be employed to achieve each objective. The annual work plan of the Kodiak CEDS Committee will identify the specific activities to be undertaken and the performance measures by which their success will be evaluated. The Kodiak CEDS Committee will prepare its annual report and performance evaluation consistent with the requirements of EDA.

Rural coastal communities of the Pacific Ocean Division do not have the population to compete with urban ports, yet are highly dependent on waterborne commerce.

Selby, Borough Mayor 48 49 50 51 Nova M. Javier, MMC, Borough Clerk Kodiak Island Borough Resolution No. FY2011 -29 Page 1 of 1 Proposal to Establish a Pacific Ocean Division Water Infrastructure Funding Line Item Within the Army Corps of Engineers Civil Works Construction Program Background The Army Corps of Engineers has been the central governmental agency for the development of water - related infrastructure throughout the Nation. The ACOE has established a comprehensive process to identify, evaluate, and fund projects related to navigation, safe harbor, flood control, erosion control, and water supply. This process involves an initial reconnaissance study of a proposed project; an extensive feasibility analysis to determine the project's net benefit to the Nation; a report to Congress presenting the Chief of Engineers' findings; a Water Resources Development Act authorization of the specific project by Congress; and finally appropriations over a period of years to pay for the Federal share of the specific project. The Congress has recently decided to suspend the use of congressionally - directed spending within appropriations bills while it grapples with the Federal deficit. The Army Corps Civil Works Construction Program has depended on a project- specific authorization and appropriations process for almost a century. The current moratorium on congressionally - directed spending has severely curtailed the ability of the Army Corps fulfill its mission throughout the country. This adverse impact is particularly acute within the Army Corps' Pacific Ocean Division. The Pacific Ocean Division is comprised of the State of Hawaii, the State of Alaska, and the Pacific Island territories of the United States. The communities within this region are either located on islands or are in the coastal areas of Alaska (many of which are not connected to the road system). All of these communities share in common the fact that port activity is the dominant feature of their local and regional economies. This dependency on waterborne commerce makes the Army Corps Civil Works program essential to the long -term health and welfare of the Pacific Ocean Division region. Under the moratorium on congressionally - directed spending, only projects which are identified in the President's Budget Request are eligible for funding. These projects are identified through a scoring system which favors the more developed ports of major urban areas and large -scale environmental restoration such as the Everglades Restoration Project. The rural coastal communities of the Pacific Ocean Division do not have the population base to compete within a scoring system that provides a bias towards large cargo volumes and urban populations. These rural communities, however, are more economically dependent on waterborne commerce in relation to the rest of their local and regional economies than the large urban areas, which have more diversified economies. There needs to be some mechanism within the Energy & Water appropriations bill to recognize the unique circumstances of the rural communities within the Pacific Ocean Division. Proposal The Fiscal Year 2012 Energy & Water appropriations bill and the Fiscal Year 2013 President's Budget Request should be amended to include a set -aside of $50 million annually for use within the Pacific Ocean Division to develop and sustain water infrastructure in the small coastal communities of the region. The Army Corps would be charged with the responsibility of working with the States, territorial governments, and local communities to prioritize projects throughout the Pacific Ocean Division region. The Corps would be provided with discretion to investigate, evaluate, plan, and provide funding continuity for projects identified within its priority list. Non - federal cost share requirements set out in existing law would remain in place. Projects to be funded would include breakwaters, wave barriers, dredging of navigation channels and mooring basins required as part of new harbor construction or harbor improvement projects, removal of barriers to navigation specifically authorized by law, flood control, water supply, and erosion control. Routine dredging of navigation features would remain within the Army Corps' national Operations & Maintenance Program. uttgrrzs a1 the Unite =units 3 is 1?ill&itnta, E1T 20515 May 26, 2011 Senator Daniel Inouye Senator Thad Cochran Chairman Vice Chairman Senate Committee on Appropriations Senate Committee on Appropriations S 128, The Capitol S -146A, The Capitol Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Senator Dianne Feinstein Senator Lamar Alexander Chairwoman Ranking Member Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development Senate Committee on Appropriations Senate Committee on Appropriations SD -186 Dirksen SD -188 Dirksen Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairman Inouye, Vice Chairman Cochran, Chairwoman Feinstein, and Ranking Member Alexander: As representatives of the states and territories in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pacific Ocean Division, we write to you to request a dedicated source of funding for the Pacific Ocean Division in the Fiscal Year 2012 Appropriations bill. The Congress has recently decided to suspend the use of congressionally - directed spending within appropriations bills while it grapples with the Federal deficit. The Army Corps Civil Works Construction Program has depended on a project - specific authorization and appropriations process for almost a century. The current moratorium on congressionally - directed spending has severely curtailed the ability of the Army Corps to fulfill its mission throughout the county. This adverse impact is particularly acute within the Army Corps' Pacific Ocean Division. Under the moratorium on congressionally - directed spending, only projects which are identified in the President's Budget Request are eligible for funding. These projects are identified through a scoring system which favors the more developed ports of major urban areas and large -scale environmental restoration projects. The rural coastal communities of the Pacific Ocean Division do not have the population base to compete within a scoring system that provides a bias towards large cargo volumes and urban populations. These rural communities, however, are more economically dependent on waterborne commerce in relation to the rest of their local and regional economies than the large urban areas, which have more diversified economies. There needs to be some mechanism within the Energy & Water appropriations bill to recognize the unique circumstances of the rural communities within the Pacific Ocean Division. We are advocating a set -aside line item of 550 million in the Fiscal Year 2012 Energy & Water appropriations bill for the Pacific Ocean Division to develop and sustain water infrastructure in the small coastal communities of the region. The Army Corps would be charged with the responsibility of working with the States, territorial governments, and local communities to prioritize projects throughout the Pacific Ocean Division region. We are committed to help guarantee that our region's water infrastructure is developed and sustained. PRINTED DN RECYCLED PAPER We appreciate your consideration of this request.

SUMMARY: Kodiak Island Borough voters authorized the sale of up to $76.31M in bonds to fund the Kodiak High School Renovation and Addition Project on October 6, 2009. The Design /Bid /Build method of project delivery is commonly used by KIB, and using this method of delivery for this project presents several significant challenges including: restrictive site spaces, complexity of construction, the need for scheduled phasing, and the need to minimize impacts to the on -site education program. KIBC 3.30.110 allows the use of alternative delivery methods for procurement of construction services as verified by the Borough Attorney. The State of Alaska Department of Education and Early Development allows the use of alternative delivery methods with borough and department approval. Use of the Construction Manager as General Contractor at Risk (CM /GC at RISK) delivery method provides for contractor involvement early in the design process usually at the end of the schematic design phase. Participation of the contractor in cost estimating, schedule phasing, constructability reviews provides value to the project. Adjusting design scope based on contractors cost data provides the owner greater budget controls. Open accounting and shared responsibility provides for a reduction of risk to owner and contractor. CM /GC at RISK provides the owner with the ability to select contractors based on qualifications and price (usually weighted 50/50); thereby, avoiding less qualified low bidders. Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2011 -30.

SUMMARY: The Borough Assembly has previously declared these parcels to be surplus to the public's need. The Planning Commission has also more recently approved a subdivision of these tracts into four parcels. After Borough staff spent time on -site with Womens Bay Service Area representatives to address concerns about drainage and retention of an existing pond for firefighting purposes, the subdivision was modified to reserve one of the lots for drainage, fish habitat, and firefighting as intended by the Commission and the Assembly. This most recent action and recommendation by the Planning Commission was to review a rezone request of this area. If this rezone request is approved by the Assembly, the 3 parcels approved by plat will be made available for sale at a future Borough land auction and the fourth lot will remain zoned PL- Public Use lands. After holding a public meeting, the Commission approved recommending to the Borough Assembly that the 3 parcels identified be rezoned from PL— Public Use Lands to RR1 -Rural Residential One.

Findings as to the Need and Justification for a Change or 46 Amendment. 47 The PL- Public Use Land zoning district is intended only for lands that are publicly 48 owned and the allowable uses are not compatible with private land ownership. Kodiak Island Borough Ordinance No. FY2011 -17 Page 1 of 2 49 This land was designated surplus to the public's need by the Kodiak Island Borough 50 Assembly (Resolution 2001 -02). A rezone from PL- Public Use Land to RR1 -Rural 51 Residential One is consistent with the Assembly's disposal policy. 52 The RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district permits uses and structures that are 53 compatible with existing residential developments in the surrounding area. These 54 residential uses are consistent with the intent of the 1982 Womens Bay 55 Comprehensive Plan 56 57 17.72.020 B. Findings as to the Effect a Change or Amendment would have on 58 the Objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. 59 The 1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan provides guidance.

The remaining two steps in that process are rezone to an appropriate zoning district consistent with that intent and with the Comprehensive Plan, as well as subdivision consistent with the land characteristics and the surrounding neighborhood. Both of these cases are before the Commission this month. Among the more obvious reasons supporting disposal of Borough land at sale are raising revenues that can offset taxes, and augmenting the Borough tax base. There is also a desire to provide land to future home owners for development at an affordable price, which satisfies the public's desire to transfer land into private hands. Resistance from neighbors to any discussion of disposal of public land is predictable. However, that should not, of itself, foreclose on future settlement opportunities in areas that may he suitable, as well as economical because of existing infrastructure, for residential development. Designation of this property as Residential on the Proposed Future Land Use map in the Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive Plan Update (2008) supports rezone to RRl -Rural Residential One. The preliminary subdivision design proposes three lots in the 60,000 - 70,000 square foot range, well exceeding the 40,000 square foot minimum for the zoning district. Each lot provides good potential building sites, and suitability of soils for well and septic will he confirmed by engineering as part of preliminary subdivision review. This is consistent with an implementation action recommended to achieve the Land Use Goal for Womens Bay contained in the Comprehensive Plan Update which states: "Encourage new residential development while maintaining a minimum lot size of RRl (40,000 square feet). Consider implementing larger lot sizes as appropriate to prevent water /septic problems." This property originally contained barracks as an extension of the Kodiak Navy Base during World War 11. It was one of the subjects of environmental restoration in Bells Flats under Ole federal Defense Environmental Restoration Program for Formerly Used Defense Sites (DERP -FUDS) with site closure related to removal of both underground and above ground fuel tanks completed in 2004.

Of Tract G (Proposed Lots 1, 2, and 3, Lake Orbin Subdivision) from PL- Public Land to RR1 -Rural Residential One Per the request for comment regarding the Tracts H and G, the Womens Bay Service Area Board has prepared this response to identify potential issues that will affect the local tax base and residents. The major concern of the Board is directly related to the previous land disposal on Sargent Creek Road of five parcels by the KIB. The lack of engineering, design and investigation regarding the drainage and runoff issues in the area due to the development of these parcels after the sale and subsequent lack of enforcement of building codes has cost the Road Service District nearly $100,000 to develop and improve drainage in this immediate area. As the KIB land sale proceeds are directed into the KIB general fund and the KIB does not have "road powers ", the local service area and property owners have born this cost. Poor decisions by the developers of individual properties and lack of code enforcement have resulted in drainage water related issues with houses and property in this immediate area. These issues identified after the fact have cost residents and tax payers additional funds that could have been avoided if better planning and enforcement had taken place. The Board believes that if development is to move forward, the KIB holds the responsibility to examine the impacts to the area and identify design appropriate drainage and anticipated road impact during the preliminarily planning process. The argument will be that the Road Service District will receive tax revenues as a direct result of this sale and development. When you analyze this argument it will be over 15 years until the collected tax pays for the costs incurred by the Road Service District related to the Sargent Creek sale. This results in long term identified maintenance issues being differed as a limited budget had to be utilized to fix problems that should have been identified as a cost associated prior to or during the sale planning process. Concerns directly related to the proposed Lake Orbin Subdivision plat are as follows: Case No. 11 -023 Public Comment Page 5 of 12 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 • Lot 1, Tract H — Due to the elevation on the south side of this lot, the driveway access should be designated on the north side of the property and a driveway culvert be mandated as a requirement of the driveway permit. • On the west end of the lot, an existing drainage ditch exists that drains a cross road culvert on Kalsin Drive. The Board is requesting that the property lines be drawn to maintain this ditch line in the road setbacks to allow the Road Service District to maintain and improve this drainage as needed. • Lot 3, Tract H — Similarly with Lot 1, the driveway access should be identified on the Alitak Drive or north side of the property due to the south facing lot elevation and potential increased surface runoff to Kalsin Drive. A driveway culvert should be mandated as a requirement of the driveway permit. There is an existing natural drainage swale on the north east portion of the lot along Alitak Drive. If this drainage were filled by a property owner it would divert the natural drainage flow. This natural drainage area should be identified on the plat and consideration for drainage easement through this area. • Lot 2, Tracts H and 6- This lot will require driveway access on the south side of the proposed lot which will result in a driveway on either Kalsin or Middle Bay Drive. As these roads have the primary drainage of the existing properties that are on the higher elevations in the area, the culvert size required for the anticipated driveway access will need to be sized correctly to ensure unobstructed flow under this driveway. The Board insists that any driveway that exits on a developed road be constructed at a 90 degree orientation to the existing road surface. • The Board is pleased that consideration to the drainage from Lot 4, Tract 6 has been considered and easement has been identified in order to maintain this large volume drainage at this site. This area is the site of a long established pond and green space recognized by the property owners of the area. It is the desire that this space be left intact condition zoning classification, The immediate area residents have been in discussion regarding a funding mechanism to allow the repair of the failed dam to reestablish the former pond. Thank you for the opportunity to weigh in on this property disposal. Due to our Chairperson, David Neuman being out of town when this packed was mailed, our board has had limited time to review the documents and the site. This comment letter has be prepared and submitted for the Tuesday, April 05, 2011 deadline. Our board meeting is April 5, 2011 at 7:00 pm and we anticipate that additional comments may be forth coming. The board is aware of the April 13, 2011 P &Z Work session and our intent is to be represented at that meeting if further information or comment is required. If you have questions or require additional information regarding these comments please contact our Chairperson, David Heuman. Womens Bay Service Area Board. Case No. 11 -023 Public Comment Page 6 of 12 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 Sheila Smith From: Mark Witteveen [markjwitt @hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, March 24, 2011 8:01 AM To: Sheila Smith Subject: Comments regarding rezoning public use land To whom it may concern, My name is Mark Witteveen and I live at 11542 Kalsin Drive (lot 7A -3, Bells Flats Subdivision), which is directly across the street from the proposed rezoning of Tract H and G in the Bells Flats Subdivision. I apologize that I will be out of town for the public hearing and won't be able to participate. I oppose this rezoning. A very similar rezoning was proposed a few years ago and was met with significant opposition including a petition signed by many Bell's Flats Residents. After such opposition, it is frustrating to see the same thing just a few years later. The area proposed for rezoning is often used by walkers and is a pleasant area for public use. There are no parks in the area and easily accessible public use land is at a premium. This area of Bells Flats is fully utilized and many people have expressed concerns about the impact of drilling additional wells on their own water supply as well as additional septic systems directly upstream of Lake Orbin. Thank you, Mark Witteveen 1 Case No. 11 -023 Public Comment Page 7 of 12 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 Sheila Smith From: Richard Dellatran [kai_yaarkan @yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2011 4:28 PM To: Sheila Smith Subject: cases 11 -023 and s11 -012 To whom it may concern (i.e. greedy Borough officials), While I realize this email is utterly pointless in the face of your rapacious avarice, I am compelled to compose this missive so that as I watch heavy construction equipment ravaging the area that I once considered a beautiful mini -park I can at least have the knowledge that I expressed my disgust at your acquisitive machinations. Let me pause here and apologize for using such florid language, thus forcing you to get out your dictionaries. I just wanted to show you that not all of the residents of Bells Flats are ignorant hippies too stupid to realize that what is being marketed as progress is really pure and simple gluttonous greed for money. Forget about what EVERY last lot holder surrounding the area in question wants. The only thing that matters to you is the money the sale of the land and taxes upon houses built on said land will bring to Borough coffers. Nothing any of us say will stop you. Go ahead, rape the land and squeeze a couple more houses in here. After all, we 'Flatters' want to live just like you Townies do; with postage stamp yards and neighbors looking in our windows from every side. Enjoy your money. Sleep well knowing you've pillaged one small bit of nature for the sake of fattening your bottom line. We will watch the loss of beauty with sad eyes and know that you politicians can't help yourselves any more than sharks eating baby seals can.

Let me first say that I am opposed to the proposal. My family and I have been at our location for 12 years. We moved from town, and spent a good deal of time researching our location. We were attracted by the open spaces and land buffers to our neighbors. We particularly enjoyed the walk around Kalsin Drive, with the mix of open land and developed property. We intend to stay in this neighborhood, and are concerned about the planning of our small community. I have several points of concern. 1. The Lake: A large part of the area is -or has been- a lake, frequented by Canada Geese, and ducks. Since the torrential rains and mudslides of late 2009, the beaver dam is damaged, and the lake is drained. Local efforts to restore the lake have been unsuccessful, and apparently the Borough now considers the land up for grabs. I feel we should restore the wetlands that have been lost, with the Borough leading the way. 2. The watershed and drainage: There are several drainages passing through the area which will be negatively impacted by construction. 3. The planned balance of land use: One of the great charms of our area of Bells Flats, is the mix of public use land and residential that surrounds us. Development should be somewhat planned, not simply rubber stomped. We have issues with industrial zoning also, which should be fixed. To rezone this area is to upset that balance. 4. Fiscal income urgency: The immediate need for Borough income seems to be driving the show, also evinced by the recent dramatic rise in property values. Case No. 11 -023 Public Comment Page 9 of 12 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 This leads to an urgency of development, which is the enemy of thoughtful planning. There was no urgency to fix the lake. 5. Double losses: The land in question fronts on two roads, so changing this will cause a double depletion of public usage. 6. View to the future: Considering the future, I have no plans to move from my Island Paradise. I am seeing a trend, particularly with the Coast Guard, to view real estate as an investment to buy and sell, and only secondarily to live in. This is financial thinking, which tends to be concerned with immediate and short term returns. 7. Development inside an existing neighborhood: The existing neighborhood is mature and developed, with the idea of uncrowded housing clearly seen in the 0.92 acre minimum size. To place more here may be technically correct, but the cumulative result will irreversibly alter the character and temper of the location. B. Errors of planning: The planning and zoning commission have a delicate mission, balancing development with sustainability. Certainly the drive to develop quickly, with fast financial returns for the local government is a powerful motivator. You must balance that with what simple people need. I have been astounded with decisions like Mike Haggren and ban Ogg, or Kevin O'leary, where the result has been dream houses built on top of dream houses- there goes the neighborhood! -so no -one wins, they just leave town.! 9. Conclusion: I have no loud political voice, just a simple appeal from a common man adopted into a great country that allows me to have a home and family and great neighbors who thankfully (and hopefully) won't have to dwell in my front yard. Thanks for your consideration, Sincerely, Eddie Rose Case No. 11 -023 Public Comment Page 10 of 12 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 Sheila Smith From: Greg Egle [egor @acsalaska.net] Sent: Monday, April 04, 2011 8:11 PM To: Sheila Smith Subject: Public Hearing Notice Case #11 -023 My Name is Greg Egle, PO Box 3274 Kodiak, Alaska Lot 3C Bells Flats Subdivision. I am responding as a property owner to a letter received from you regarding Case # 11 -023. I believe it is a bad idea to rezone this greenbelt to RR -1. This is a drainage area for all the water runoff above, it is a bird habitat and wetlands with migratory birds returning each year to nest and raise their young. Any kind of septic system would be problematic at best. One of our reasons for purchasing the adjacent property over 20 years ago was that it was greenbelt and wouldn't be built on. Thank you for your time in reading this. Sincerely, Greg Egle Case No. 11 -023 Public Comment Page 11 of 12 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 Sheila Smith From: fred waltman fwinterraven4x4 @yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2011 4 :36 PM To: Sheila Smith Subject: Cases 11 -023 and S11 -012 Dear Sirs and Madams, I wish to protest the removal of tract 1-1 and a portion of tract G from public use designation and the proposed re- zoning of said lots for sale as residential lots. There isn't a single, solitary person on Chiniak dr. or Kalsin dr. that wants this to take place. The last thing we want is to see beautiful trees and a nice creek being transformed into housing, destroying vital habitat for numerous bird and animal species. My wife and I worked hard to keep the small beaver pond dam in good repair and the area free of debris. We asked for help from the Woman's Bay Road Service board in assisting us with this project and were ignored so we took it upon ourselves to donate our time and our money to keep the area in shape. We always said that if the dam went, the borough would jump in and try to take the land and sell it, Unfortunately, the big rain storm of 2008 broke the dam and flooded the area, wiping out the pond and what do you know, in comes the borough, grabbing at the land with gleeful greed. We know our pitiful protests won't stop you. Money talks and little things like what the actual residents of the area want aren't worth considering. You'll put on a show of listening, nod your heads as if you care and go right on with all the changes in designation and re- zoning but at least our consciences will be clear because we've spoken our protests. We and our neighbors have asked you not to change the lot designations but we're not so starry-eyed that we don't know where Little things like local opinion stand in the priorities of greedy politicians. Sadly, Frederick E. Waltman 11 1 Case No. 11 -023 Public Comment Page 12 of 12 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 MEMORANDUM DATE: April 8, 2011 TO: Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Community Development Department SUBJECT: Information for the April 20, 2011 Regular Meeting CASE: 11 -023 APPLICANT: Kodiak Island Borough AGENT: Robert Scholze REQUEST: A rezone, according to KIBC 17.205, to investigate a change of zoning for Tract H and a Portion of Tract G, Bells Flats Alaska Subdivision, from PL- Public Use Land to RR1 -Rural Residential One, said rezone area to be proposed for replat in related Case S11 -012, in order to create Lots 1, 2 and 3, Lake Orbin Subdivision. LOCATION: 10986 Chiniak Drive & 11629 Kalsin Drive ZONING: PL- Public Use Zoning District Forty (40) public hearing notices were mailed on March 9, 2011. Six (6) public comments were returned prior to the April 5, 2011 deadline. These comments generally expressed opposition to the proposed rezone. Date of site visit: Various 1. Zoning History: The 1968 Comprehensive Plan did not address this area. Zoned Unclassified by Ordinance 69 -30 -0. Rezoned to Rural Residential Zoning District by Ordinance 80 -9 -0. Rezoned to RR -1 Rural Residential Zoning District by Ordinance 83 -15 -0. Rezoned from Service /Recreation to PL- Public Use Zoning District by Ordinance 83 -21 -0. (Note: the record is unclear how the land got to be zoned Service /Recreation, however, the rezone to PL- Public Use Zoning District is well documented so that the current zoning ends up the same.) 2.

Comprehensive Plan: The 1968 Comprehensive Plan did not address this area. The 1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan designates all areas not designated for Commercial, Industrial, or Public Use to remain Rural Residential in nature. The 2008 Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive Plan Update depicts this area residential as a proposed future land use. 6. Applicable Regulations: The following sections of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Borough Code and the Kodiak Island Borough Coastal Management Program are applicable to this request: 17.205.010 Authority. Whenever the public necessity, convenience, general welfare or good zoning practice requires, the assembly may, by ordinance and after report thereon by the commission and public hearing as required by law, amend, supplement, modify, repeal or otherwise change these regulations and the boundaries of the districts. 17.205.030 Manner of initiation. Changes in this title may be initiated in the following manner: A. The assembly upon its own motion; B. The commission upon its own motion; and C. By petition of one or more owners of property within an area proposed to be rezoned. A petition shall be in the form of an application for a change in the boundary of a district, shall be fled in the community development department, be accompanied by the required fee and such data and information as may be necessary to assure the fullest practicable presentation of facts and shall set forth reasons and justification for proposing such change. 17.205.055 Submission to assembly. A. Within 30 days after the commission has acted favorably upon a proposed zoning change in accordance with the above provisions, a report with recommendations shall be submitted to the assembly together with the proposed ordinance. Such recommendations of the commission shall be advisory only and shall not be binding upon the assembly. When an ordinance has been forwarded to the assembly, Case No. 11 -023 Staff Rpt Page 2 of 5 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 the assembly shall act in accordance with this chapter, and notice shall be issued as provided in KIBC 17.205.070 by the clerk. B. If the commission recommends denial of any proposed amendment, its action shall be final unless the initiating party, within 10 days, files a written statement with the clerk requesting that the commission's action be taken up by the assembly. COASTAL MANAGEMENT APPLICABLE POLICIES 4.4 ENFORCEABLE POLICIES Staff has not identified any enforceable policies of the adopted coastal management plan applicable or relevant to this request. STAFF COMMENTS This rezone request is a culmination of several years of work and effort responding to policy guidance directing the identification and disposal of suitable borough -owned properties. The Planning & Zoning Commission has previously reviewed this proposed disposal, and via Resolution 2000 -01 -R declared portions of the two tracts to be "surplus to the public's need ". The Borough Assembly likewise reviewed the proposed disposal, and confirmed the Planning & Zoning Commission's action via Assembly Resolution 2001 -2 The related subdivision case, 511 -012, is also before the Commission this month. This preliminary plat proposes a four -lot subdivision of Bells Flats AK Subdivision Tract H and Tract G. The Borough, as a means of protecting the existing pond area and the active drainage corridor below the pond, will retain Lot 4. Hence, only Lots 1, 2, and 3 of proposed Lake Orbin Subdivision are subject to this rezone request. Lot 4 will remain zoned PL- Public Use. Conformance with the Comprehensive Plan: As mentioned above, the 1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan designates all lands . not otherwise designated for Commercial, Industrial or Public use to be kept Rural Residential in nature. A residential use also conforms to the 2008 Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive Plan update. Zoning /use: The land is currently vacant. The existing PL- Public Use Land zoning is intended for government land ownership and uses. The uses allowed in this zone are not compatible with private land ownership. Prior to disposal of this land, the zoning must be changed to allow for private development and to be consistent with the predominant zoning pattern for adjoining residential areas. The RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning 1 See Appendix pages 1 & 2. 2 See Appendix pages 3 & 4. Case No. 11 -023 Staff Rpt Page 3 of 5 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 district permits uses and structures that are consistent with the existing development pattern in the area. Land Suitability: Quoting the applicant's narrative, "Designation of this property as Residential on the Proposed Future Land Use map in the Kodiak Island Borough Comprehensive Plan Update (2008) supports rezone to RR I -Rural Residential One. The preliminary subdivision design proposes three lots in the 60,000 - 70,000 square foot range, well exceeding the 40,000 square foot minimum for the zoning district. Each lot provides good potential building sites, and suitability of soils for well and septic will be confirmed by engineering as part of preliminary subdivision review. This is consistent with an implementation action recommended to achieve the Land Use Goal for Womens Bay contained in the Comprehensive Plan Update which states: "Encourage new residential development while maintaining a minimum lot size of RRI (40,000 square feet). Consider implementing larger lot sizes as appropriate to prevent water /septic problems." See Appendix Page 5 for wetlands delineation. Recent Development trends in the area: The land use pattern surrounding the rezone area is a combination of residential and public use. There is a vacant portion of Borough land to the east, located across Middle Bay Drive. The balance of the land surrounding the site is zoned RR1 -Rural Residential One and is developed with a mixture of single - family residential and mobile home residential. Traffic impacts: The projected traffic impact from the disposal of three lots, zoned RR -1 Rural Residential Zoning District is expected to be minimal. Even if developed to the maximum allowable density for the applicable zoning district, the marginal increase in traffic would not exceed the functional capacity of the adjoining roads. Case No. 11 -023 Staff Rpt Page 4 of 5 Public Hearing Item 7 -D P &Z April 20, 2011 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Commission forward this rezone request to the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly with a recommendation that it be approved APPROPRIATE MOTION Should the Commission agree with the staff recommendation, the appropriate motion is: Move to rezone, according to KIBC 17.205, Lots 1, 2, and 3, Lake Orbin Subdivision, as depicted in the preliminary plat submitted in related Case No. S11 -012, from PL- Public Use Land t4 RR1 -Rural Residential One, subject to one condition of approval; and to adopt the "Findings of Fact" in the staff report dated April 8, 2011 in support of this recommendation. CONDITION OF APPROVAL 1. This rezone shall become effective upon the recording of the plat subject to this request. FINDINGS OF FACT Section 17.72.020 states that the Commission shall incorporate the following criteria into their report to the Assembly: 17.72.020 A. Findings as to the Need and Justification for a Change or Amendment. The PL- Public Use Land zoning district is intended only for lands that are publicly owned and the allowable uses are not compatible with private land ownership. This land was designated surplus to the public's need by the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly (Resolution 2001 -02). A rezone from PL- Public Use Land to RR1 -Rural Residential One is consistent with the Assembly's disposal policy. The RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district permits uses and structures that are compatible with existing residential developments in the surrounding area. These residential uses are consistent with the intent of the 1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan. 17.72.020 B. Findings as to the Effect a Change or Amendment would have on the Objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The 1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan provides guidance. Per that plan, those lands not designated for Commercial, Industrial or Public use, are intended to be used for Rural Residential Purposes. The RR -1 Rural Residential Zoning District is appropriate, and supports private ownership and eventual development.

Request a review of a land disposal, according to KIBC 18.20 (Borough Real Property) to consider a disposal for less than fair market value of approximately four (4) acres of land, the exact boundaries of which will be determined by future survey, for the development of a new State of Alaska office building for use by the Alaska Department of Fish & Game, to be located on a portion of Lot B -1A, U.S. Survey 4947, (Plat 2010 -8), generally located on Near Island at 200 Trident Way. Zoning is PL- Public Land Use. The applicant is the Kodiak Island Borough and the agent is Bob Scholze, Resource Management Officer. The location is 301 Research court, Near Island and it is zoned PL- Public Land Use. Dvorak reported 4 public hearing notices were sent out and 1 comment was received indicating no objection. Staff recommends forwarding this request with a favorable recommendation. There has been a survey done in preparation of a lease. This lease will allow the construction to begin and then at some point after the building is completed it's intended to more formally dispose of the building and the land that it sits on to the State. CHAIR TORRES stated maybe we should leave it at 4 acres instead of putting it at 2.88. Smith stated she already changed it in the resolution for signing. COMMISSIONER WATKINS MOVED to adopt the following resolution containing a positive recommendation to the Borough Assembly regarding the land disposal reviewed by the Planning & Zoning Commission in Case 11 -021. Close regular meeting & open public hearing: Bob Scholze, Kodiak Island Borough Resource Management Officer spoke in support of this request.

Request a rezone, according to KIBC 17.205, to investigate a change of zoning for Tract H and a Portion of Tract G, Bells Flats Alaska Subdivision, from PL- Public Use Land to RR1 -Rural Residential One, said rezone area to be proposed for replat in related Case S11 -012, in order to create Lots 1, 2 and 3, Lake Orbin Subdivision. The applicant is the Kodiak Island Borough and the agent is Bob Scholze, Resource Management Officer. The location is 10986 Chiniak Drive & 11629 Kalsin Drive, and the zoning is PL- Public Use Land. Dvorak reported 40 public hearing notices were sent out and 6 comments were received generally in opposition to the request. Staff recommends this request be approved and forwarded to the Assembly with a recommendation for approval. Staff also recommended an effective clause that the zoning would not be effective until the plat is filed. COMMISSIONER WATKINS MOVED to grant rezone, according to KIBC 17.205, Lots 1, 2, and 3, Lake Orbin Subdivision, as depicted in the preliminary plat submitted in related Case No. S11 -012, from PL- Public Use Land to RR1 -Rural Residential One, subject to one condition of approval; and to adopt the "Findings of Fact" in the staff report dated April 8, 2011 in support of this recommendation. Close regular meeting & open public hearing: April 20, 2011 Page 3 of 8 Planning & Zoning Minutes John Isadore, Womens Bay Service Area Board Member and private citizen, stated he's opposed to this rezone and reminded the commission of the petition submitted in 2002 when this property was up for disposal. He said this is one of the last remaining greenbelts that is used by many residents, and it's a drainage area. This area cost the Service District about $100,000 to repair culverts and dig ditches, and the borough paid twice for the house that was flooded twice in this area during 2002 that was disposed of and sold. The contractors did minimal grading and put in insufficient culverts. He asked that before it's disposed of that the commission look at this property because 2 out of 3 of the lots are buildable but there is a salmonoid stream that runs into the pond which is a perfect retention pond. The drainage needs to be worked out. Dave Rittenhouse stated he's opposed and it should be left as a greenbelt because it's important as a buffer for noise, wildlife, drainage, berry picking, and hiking. We need to keep it as is. Alicia McEwan spoke in opposition and stated she bought the house across and up the hill from the subject property with the understanding that this was public use land and that it wouldn't be called into question of a rezone again. She feels the open space is important. Dave Hueman, Womens Bay Service Area Board Member, stated he met with Scholze last week to look at the lots. We have drainage issues from the last land sale the borough had. His concern is that a drainage plan is understood, enforced, and enacted if this land does get sold so the service district is not stuck with the bill or without resources. He said, as a private citizen, he can understand the resident's concern when you purchase property and see it is public use and then it gets changed which can affect your quality of life. Bob Scholze, agent /applicant, stated this disposal has been considered for 10 years. The Assembly reaffirmed their interest in proceeding and doing it right. More than half the property is being retained as public use for protection of the drainage and pond area. Conditions of Approval were built around Fish & Game's recommendations. Designation of this property as residential on the proposed future land use map of the KIB Comp Plan supports rezone to RR1. The preliminary subdivision design proposes 3 lots in the 60- 70,000 square foot range which exceeds the 40,000 sq. ft. minimum. The intent was to utilize that land to make it available to future land owners and retain the quality of life and neighborhood characteristics as much as possible. Each lot will provide good building sites, and suitability of soils for wells and septic will be confirmed by engineering as part of the preliminary subdivision review and conditions of approval. This is consistent with implementation action recommended to achieve the land use goal for the Womens Bay contained in the Comp Plan. Scholze was on site Friday with the borough manager and talked with Dave Heuman and Dave Conrad about drainage issues and concerns. Close public hearing & open regular meeting: In response to COMMISSIONER KERSCH'S inquiry of has the residents of Womens Bay ever asked to have that area converted to parklands, Dvorak said the last time we had a lot of public input on this kind of issue was when the Womens Bay Plan was done. The Jack & Lee Lakes area was a big part of that discussion that's a very prominent reference in the Womens Bay Community Plan but he doesn't recall any specific discussions about Tract G & H. April 20, 2011 Page 4 of 8 Planning & Zoning Minutes Dvorak state the Assembly determined it was surplus to the public's need and Tracts G & H, the subdivision would create 3 lots and the remainder of Lot 4 would be 4.1 acre with the pond area and drainage corridor. The idea of how it's disposed of is up to the Assembly. During discussion, the commissioners wanted to get to the subdivision since the rezone hinges on the subdivision being recorded. COMMISSIONER KERSCH said the residents have the option to purchase this property and make it a park if we dispose it. CONDITION OF APPROVAL 1. This rezone shall become effective upon the recording of the plat subject to this request. FINDINGS OF FACT 17.72.020 A. Findings as to the Need and Justification for a Change or Amendment. The PL- Public Use Land zoning district is intended only for lands that are publicly owned and the allowable uses are not compatible with private land ownership. This land was designated surplus to the public's need by the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly (Resolution 2001 -02). A rezone from PL- Public Use Land to RR1 -Rural Residential One is consistent with the Assembly's disposal policy. The RR1 -Rural Residential One zoning district permits uses and structures that are compatible with existing residential developments in the surrounding area. These residential uses are consistent with the intent of the 1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan. 17.72.020 B. Findings as to the Effect a Change or Amendment would have on the Objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The 1982 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan provides guidance. Per that plan, those lands not designated for Commercial, Industrial or Public use, are intended to be used for Rural Residential Purposes. The RR -1 Rural Residential Zoning District is appropriate, and supports private ownership and eventual development. ROLL CALL VOTE ON MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY E) Case S11- 012. Request Preliminary approval, according to KIBC 16.40, of the replat of Tract H and a Portion of Tract G, Bells Flats Alaska Subdivision, to create Lots 1, 2, 3 and 4, Lake Orbin Subdivision. The applicant is the Kodiak Island Borough and the agent is Bob Scholze, Resource Management Officer. The location is 10986 Chiniak Drive& 11629 Raisin Drive and the zoning is PL- Public Use Land. Dvorak reported 40 public hearing notices were sent out and 4 comments were received generally in opposition. Staff recommended approval subject to 7 conditions; however, last Friday the Resource Manager and the Borough Manager went out and met with the representatives of the Service District Board and the Voluntary Fire Department. They made some field observations which led them to believe it would be advisable to make some modifications to the plat. A written request to postpone has been received to allow for some minor changes to the plat based on the field observations. In response to CHAIR TORRES'S inquiry of whether there is enough time to get it on the May agenda, Dvorak stated if the changes are substantial and a variation of the theme that you have seen tonight then the commission will know to postpone it even further and re- advertise it. Staff can't say until we see what it actually looks like. April 20, 2011 Page 5 of 8 Planning & Zoning Minutes • KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH AGENDA STATEMENT JUNE 16, 2011 REGULAR MEETING ITEM NO: 13.C.2 TITLE: Ordinance No. FY2012 -02 An Ordinance of the Assembly of the Kodiak Island Borough Placing the Question of the Adoption of a Sales Tax on the October 4, 2011, Regular Election Ballot. SUMMARY: At the October 6, 2009 general election the registered voters of the Kodiak Island Borough approved a $76,310,000 general obligation bond for renovating and additions to the Kodiak High School. The Borough Assembly has also established a fund for renewal and replacement of existing capital assets. This fund is being funded with interfund loans from the Facilities Fund which will be paid back over a period of 20 years. To make the payments on these bonds and the renewal and replacement interfund loans the Borough needs to increase revenues about $4,000,000 per year. This equates to approximately 4 mills. If the Borough would adopt a 2% sales tax, with similar exemptions as the City of Kodiak, the Borough would avoid this 4 mill property tax increase. By adopting a sales tax the entire populace would help pay for these expenditures, not just the property owners.
