Latest version.
  • Pursuant to the provisions of AS 29.35.460 the board of directors of the service area, subject to KPB 16.04.001, assembly approval and appropriation of funds, shall have the power to provide flood protection, planning and mitigation services. Additionally, subject to assembly approval, the board shall be responsible for developing, implementing, and updating a development plan for furnishing flood protection services, and for determining the level of such services to be provided by the service area. Services shall only be provided that primarily address service area flood issues and that reflect fair use of the tax levy for watershed-wide benefit. Nothing in this ordinance shall be constructed to usurp or otherwise affect the City of Seward's authority regarding any stormwater or surface water projects that primarily impact the City of Seward, and existing flood control projects or contracts with the U.S. Corps of Engineers or other agencies. The board shall develop criteria for determining service area involvement in future flood control projects, and shall coordinate with the City of Seward to ensure there is no duplication or contradiction in flood control projects or services provided. The board shall promptly provide accurate and complete copies of minutes of all board meetings, all board resolutions or other actions taken by the board to the mayor and assembly.
