Historical Perspective
• In 1986, an ordinance passed to start an animal control
program in the Kodiak Island Borough, which officially
4 commenced in 1987.
• Prior to Animal Control in the Borough, wildlife and
domestic animals were threatened by strays and packs of
dogs.
• Animals were abandoned at the end of the road to fend for
themselves.
Additionally, prior to the formation of the current Kodiak
.Animal Shelter, Kodiak had two shelters, one contracted
by the City and one contracted by the borough. Both were
poorly run with little to no oversight. Animals were
euthanized within 3 -4 days of intake.
S t
Y �
A successful partnership•••
Between the HSK/Shelter, the City of
Kodiak, Animal Control and the Community,
has been instrumental in...
• Humane treatment of animals,
EReduction in the number of unwanted or stray
animals, and
A safer environment for the citizens of the City
ofKodiak and The Kodiak Borough.
+ea
t l,T
a f.,
s The Loss of Animal Control Services
,C.
in the Borough may result in...
• Fewer animals will be afforded the opportunity to have a
chance to be 1)reclaimed by owner, 2) adopted (therefore
spayed /neutered, if not already), and 3) in a safe
environment.
• More strays, population booms (of dogs & cats), and lack
of enforcement of humane treatment of animals in the
borough.
Delay in response by Troopers to complaints of threats by
dangerous animals to humans and wildlife, and abuse &
neglect.
o ,Potential threat to future funding for the Animal Shelter
and Animal Control in the City of Kodiak
i x

HSK Plans for the Future
•Retain City Contract to manage the Shelter
•Maintain and/or expand current level of services provided to the
City and Kodiak Archipelago, even though the Shelter receives
no funding from the Borough.
•Reduce the population of homeless /unwanted pets through
spay /neuter programs & educational outreach.
'Seek additional grant funding to expand spay /neuter programs,
_‘ community outreach, and shelter enhancements.
` 'Update City and Borough Animal Control Codes.
xe *Expansion of current shelter facility.

'Continue to lobby for and work with the Borough to
reinstate Animal Control in the Kodiak Island Borough.

Memorandum
To: Mayor Jerome Selby, Borough Assembly &
Manager Rick Gifford
From: Mark Hickey, Borough Lobbyist
Date: September 6, 2011
Subject: Lobbyist Report
This memorandum provides a brief report on items of interest since session.
FY 2012 Capital Budget Vetoes: Kodiak projects faired quite well in escaping the red pen
compared to other districts. Governor Parnell vetoed two Kodiak area projects: (1) $1.5 million
for Old Harbor - Airport Improvements; and (2) $12,000 for Humane Society of Kodiak —
Concrete Surface for Dog Areas.
Additional FY 2012 Revenue Sharing & K -12 Funding: The approved FY 2012 Operating
Budget included one -time appropriations of an additional $20 million for revenue sharing and an
additional $20 million for K -12 education.
Vocational Education Funding Factor Enacted: Senn'e Bill No. 84 passed the legislature and
was signed into law by the governor this summer. A major feature of this bill establishes a new
high school vocational education factor as part of the education foundation formula. KIB should
receive about $250,000 per year in additional funds. This funding will continue in future years.
Coastal Zone Management Program Extension Fails in Special Session: The legislature met
in special session in late June to try and enact a one -year extension of the Alaska Coastal Zone
Management Program. The proposal fell apart based in large part on the views presented by the
administration, and the program was allowed to sunset on June 30. It is likely we'll see a
renewed effort next session to revive the program.
New GO Bond Bill: The possibility of a new GO bond package for transportation and other
infrastructure needs started to receive some discussion behind the scenes at the end of session.
While it's too early to know if this idea develops into anything, the borough should be ready with
project ideas as part of its annual capital project request.
KIB Lobbyist Report 1 September 6, 2011
Draft 2012 — 2015 DOT /PF STIP Review: The Department of Transportation & Public
Facilities recently released the draft 2012 — 2015 Statewide Transportation Improvement
Program (STIP). Comments are due by September 18, 2011. There are two Kodiak projects
included in the draft: (1) Chiniak Highway MP 23.7 improvements expected for construction in
federal fiscal year (FFY) 2012; and (2) a 1.3 mile pathway along Rezanof Drive in the downtown
area scheduled for construction in FFY 2015.
FY 2013 Capital Budget: Governor Parnell has begun to develop his FY 2013 capital budget
submittal. State law requires it to be submitted to the Legislature by December 15. I would
expect Governor Parnell's capital budget submittal to be similar to his FY 2012 submittal,
although no indications have been provided to date. At current oil prices, revenues should equal
or exceed FY 2012 revenues.
