Homer Thanks KEA
But Doesn’t Need
$100,000 - Now
The following item appeared in
the November 30 issue of the Cook
Inlet Courier published in Homer:
THE FACTS OF THE MATTER
"Last week's report in the Ko
diak Mirror of KEA loaning
HEA 100 thousand dollars is
based on the fact that the state
owed HEA more than that for
moving line out of the highway
relocation area. Since the state
was expected to move at its
usual pace on anything relating
to the Sterling Highway comple
tion. and rather than stop con
struction this summer and giving
the state another flimsy excuse
for another year’s stalL the board
of Directors of the HEA started
making arrangements with the
Kodiak EWtrie for financing
the completion of this work. It
was not necessary to use this
favor from Kodiak but it was
rone the less appreciated.”
Ln short, they didn’t want to
wait for the state to pay them We
would have had to wait for the
state to pay them so they* could
repay us Considering the rp
&z*e moves and they make apt
reference to that one might ask:
“This was to be a short term loan?”
