FY 2013 Capital Budget Vetoes: There were no vetoes of Kodiak projects contained in the FY 2013 capital budget by Governor Parnell. Very few vetoes occurred this year since the Legislature kept the total level of spending within the parameters laid out by the Governor. Additional FY 2013 Revenue Sharing & K -12 Funding: The approved FY 2013 capital budget included one -time appropriations of an additional $25 million for revenue sharing and an additional $25 million for K -12 education. Primary Election Results /2013 Legislative Organizations: Two Republican members of the Senate Working Group (Senators Wagoner & Menard) lost their primary races to challengers. Four or five others (Senators Davis, French, Wielechowski, Thomas & Paskvan) face tough races. While it is likely there will be a balance of 12 or more Republicans Senators compared to 8 or fewer Democrats, it is also likely there will be 12 or 13 surviving members of the Working Group. On the House side, there will be several new members, but the Republicans should retain control with a comfortable margin. I would expect a similar House organization to the one in place for the last two years, including 2 or 3 rural Democrats as part of the majority. FY 2013 & FY 2014 Revenue Projections: The approved FY 2013 budget assumes an average price of $104 per barrel of ANS crude. The current price is around $111 per barrel. The average price this year has generally exceeded $104 per barrel. The state's fall revenue forecast is not out yet. The average price forecasted for FY 2014 will likely remain near the current forecast of $110 per barrel, but we will continue to see a decline in total production. Overall spending for FY 2014 will likely be less than the current year. KIB Lobbyist Report 1 September 7, 2012 FY 2014 Capital Budget: Assuming there is a reduction in total spending in FY 2014 compared to FY 2013, spending for capital projects will likely absorb the majority of this impact. While Governor Parnell has not presented his expectations about acceptable spending levels for the next fiscal year, he will likely advocate for additional fiscal restraint and increased savings. Coastal Zone Management Program Ballot Measure Fails: Ballot proposition 2 was soundly defeated by a margin of nearly two -to -one. Whether the Legislature will now take up the matter next session remains to be seen. It is also unclear if the Parnell Administration is willing to entertain re- enacting the program along the lines of the proposals debated in 2011. GO Transportation Bond Package: HB 286, which proposes about $454 million in GO bonds for transportation projects, passed the Legislature and was signed by Governor Parnell. This measure will be in front of voters on the general ballot this November. Included in the proposed projects is $15 million for the Kodiak Pier III Replacement Project. Another $18.1 million for this project was funded in the approved FY 2013 capital budget. Please let me know if there are any questions.

Providence Health and Services will operate a 24 bed long term facility that replaces the facility presently located in the Providence Kodiak Island Medical Center. This facility provides a residential like setting for its patents. The term of the lease is for 20 years. The rental rate is structured on the repayment of revenue bond debt including interest that will be used to construct the facility. The rental rate will be in the neighborhood of $66,000 a month. Other negotiated provisions of the lease are found in the document titled LONG -TERM CARE CENTER LEASE AGREEMENT.
