24 ISLAND BOROUGH THAT:
25
26 Section 1: The Kodiak Island Borough's State Legislative capital improvement project
27 priorities for the 2013 legislative session are as follows:
28
29 1. Kodiak Landfill Leachate Treatment Plant
30 Estimated Project Cost $6,592,000
31 KIB Funding Sources: revenue bonds $2,976,458
32 State Funding Request $3,615,542
33 The Borough is closing out the existing landfill footprint and creating a new EPA/DEC
34 lined cell. The lined cell when in operation will generate leachate which will be treated by
35 an on -site waste water treatment plant. This structure is stand -alone skid mounted piece
36 of equipment. It will be installed as Phase III of our landfill expansion project. The cost of
37 Phase III is estimated to cost $6.592 million. Funding is in place for Phase I and Phase II.
38 An on -site Leachate Treatment Plant was chosen as the method to address leachate
39 produced at the landfill after the alternative of piping it to the City of Kodiak Wastewater
40 Treatment Facility was found not to be a feasible option. This waste water plant is
41 required to treat waste water to DEC drinking water standards. The Borough has also
42 submitted a matching grant application through DEC for the maximum amount allowable
43 for this plant. The Borough view this project as a basic infrastructure need for the
44 community.

46 2. Monashka Bay Water and Sewer Project — Phase 1 (Feasibility, Planning and
47 Design).
48 Estimated Project Cost $500,000
49 State Funding Request $500,000
50 The borough has chosen to treat leachate generated at the Borough landfill with a waste
51 water treatment plant. This option was chosen after careful study and in order to allow for
52 future expansion of this plant to address failing septic systems common in Monashka Bay
53 and provide treatment of waste water generated from the Monashka Bay Residential
54 subdivisions. This section of town includes 256 residential parcels that lie outside the
55 reach of the existing sanitary sewer utilities and public water. Funding is requested for
56 feasibility, planning and design.
57
58 3. KHSNoc -Ed Renovation
59 Estimated Project Cost $8,500,000
60 State Funding Request $8,500,000
61 The voters approved the construction and renovation of the existing high school, This $76
62 million project includes the redesign and renovation of the existing on- campus vocational
63 facilities at a cost of approximately $15,500,000. The Borough received $7,000,000 during
64 the 2012 legislative session and is requesting the remaining $8.5 million. The
65 Vocational /Career Tech training is essential for Kodiak students. It includes training in the
66 traditional vocational education classes such as welding, woods, and auto mechanics, but
67 the Kodiak High School Career Tech program has broadened to prepare students for 21st
68 century careers. Currently Career Tech at KHS also includes CAD drafting, Multi -Media
69 Production, Seamanship /Maritime' Science, Culinary Arts, and Computer Applications.
70 The existing vocational complex was built in 1966 with several additions and renovations
71 made throughout the years. The complex is now functionally obsolete and unable to
72 support the program. Renovation of the existing high -bay spaces and large footprint of the
73 existing complex provides the basis for design and construction of a facility to house a
74 quality Career Tech Program at Kodiak High School. Approval of this project will reduced
75 the overall bonded indebtedness of the project and will reduce the amount of property tax
76 increases expected for the community. Failure to receive this funding means increases in
77 property tax.
78
79 4. Service Area Road and Paving Improvements
80 Estimated Project Cost $5,000,000
81 KIB Funding Sources: local improvement district $1,000,000
82 State Funding Request $4,000,000
83 This project addresses the on -going need to pave portions of Borough Service Area
84 roads. There are approximately 26 miles of road among four Road Service Areas that
85 connect residential neighborhoods with the greater Kodiak community. Paving projects will
86 address main thoroughfares or busy neighborhood roads as well as improvements to
87 major drainage course that runs through these areas. Funding will be applied to priority
88 projects identified by the road service districts (Service Area One, Womens Bay Service
89 Area, Bayview Service Area, and Monashka Bay Service Area). Priorities will be based

90 on recommendations made by the elected service area boards. Local contributions to
91 project engineering and design may be funded through local improvement districts where
92 those in the district are taxed a proportion of the project costs.
93
94 5. East Elementary Traffic Flow Improvements
95 Estimated Project Cost $1,000,000
96 KIB Funding Sources $100,000
97 State Funding Request $900,000
98 East Elementary School was constructed in 1966 with a substantially addition in 1988.
99 The facility now totals 39,842 square feet with twenty -five teaching stations. Since the
100 expansion, increased traffic flows have created dangerous vehicle /student hazards when
101 students are entering and leaving school. Reconfiguration of the parking area will reduce
102 risks by providing for a safer separation of pedestrians, small vehicle traffic and bus
103 loading /unloading. A new design will require an increase in the total area of the parking
104 lot to allow adequate parking to support increased building usage and occupant load.
105
106 6. Peterson Elementary School Parking Rehabilitation, Drainage and Paving
107 Estimated Project Cost $1,000,000
108 KIB Funding Sources $100,000
109 State Funding Request $900,000
110 Peterson Elementary School was built in 1945 by the U.S. Navy on government property
111 to provide an educational facility for dependent children. The building was conveyed to
112 the Kodiak Island Borough and provides elementary education for children of Coast Guard
113 families living on base and for children of the Womens Bay community. The parking lot
114 for this 39,967 square foot facility is gravel, and requires excessive maintenance expense
115 due to continual pothole repair, re- grading, and surfacing. A paved surface will not only
116 reduce maintenance expenses, it will mitigate ice hazards in the cold months of the year
117 and will provide safer and cleaner facilities for the students, faculty, staff and parents.
118
119 7. Mill Bay Beach and Island Lake Trail Access Upgrade and Trail Improvements
120 Estimated Project Cost $400,000
121 State Funding Request $400,000
122 This beach is heavily used by residents, sports fisherman and the community who come
123 to recreate at this bay located dose to town. It is also the terminus of the Island Lake Trail.
124 New construction items proposed here would include the construction of new access way
125 to the beach as well as trail enhancements between the two beaches as well as a small
126 raft/kayak launch. The planning, permitting and design cost estimate has come in at
127 approximately $69,000 and has been partially funded through a state grant of $48,000.
128
129 8. Parks and Field Plan
130 Estimated Project Cost $100,000
131 KIB Funding Sources $10,000
132 State Funding Request $90,000
133 Borough owns and manages land and fields for recreational purposes which need a
134 master plan to ensure best utilization and maintenance by the community. A master plan

135 would also help to reconcile jurisdictional and policy concerns with regard to cooperative
136 use arrangements with City of Kodiak and KIB School District.
137
138 9. Kodiak Island Trail Improvements
139 Estimated Project Cost $100,000
140 KIB Funding Sources $10,000
141 State Funding Request $90,000
142 This is a priority identified by the Kodiak Island Borough Parks and Recreation Committee.
143 The purpose of the project would be to design and implement trail system improvements
144 as recommended and prioritized in the recently adopted Kodiak Road System Trail Plan,
145 to include, but not limited to, trail head improvements, parking area and circulation plans,
146 drainage improvements, environmental permitting, etc.
147
148 10. Womens Bay Boat Ramp Planning and Design
149 Estimated Project Cost $100,000
150 KIB Funding Sources $10,000
151 State Funding Request $90,000
152 The 2007 Womens Bay Comprehensive Plan identifies a goal to provide public access to
153 the shoreline of Womens Bay for recreational purposes. This access would include
154 access for skiffs, kayaks and small pleasure craft. The project would initially develop a
155 boat ramp design with parameters and specifications that could be used in a site selection
156 process. The investigation of potential sites for public acquisition would then provide the
157 necessary information to develop a detailed cost breakdown of what would be required to
158 complete the project.
