Lack Of Plan
Spells Trouble
(Ed. note: In view of the present
program of planning for Kodiak’s
future, we reprint herewith a
speech delivered before the Toast
master’s Club and reported in the
May 26, 1956 issue of the KODIAK
MIRROR. The speech was made by
Jerry Dodd, resident engineer in
Kodiak at the time for the Macri
Construction Company, contractors
on several City projects at the
time, and was entitled “A Growing
City.” The speakers ideas are just
as applicable today as they were
then). “Every city, every commun
ity, etc.
“Every City, every community,
looking forward to the future and
to its continued expansion should
plan for that growth. In most
cases, this is not done and the ord
inary town just grows up, willy
nilly, with no thought as to the
complications that will arise in
the future because of this lack of
planning.”
“Just what trouble does this lack
of planning cause to a town?” he
asked. He answers his question by
pointing out that utilities are du
plicated ,or must be replaced be
cause of lack of capacity to serve
ever-expanding districts. Business
and dwelling structures are inter
mingled because proper zoning
laws do not exist or are not en
forced. Roads, he said, are too nar
row because the right of way was
not properly planned. Sidewalks
are either up and down or stair
stepped because no grading plan
was in existance as each section
done one time. But it has to be en
forced and carried out. Perhaps
the initial expense will seem very
was put in. Streets wander all over
because no thought was given to
their layout. “Kodiak is a very good
example of a town that just grew,”
the speaker said. “Look at the
streets. Look at tto sidewalks.”
Most small, growing towns are in
the same condition, he said.
He then asked the question
“What can be done to help this
situation?” Most smaller cities feel
that they cannot afford a qualified
city planner, he said. “But they
can hire qualified firms to make
-urveys, recommendations and a
plan as to how to get the most out
"f the money they do and will
have. This planning only has to be
high, but over the years it will
pay off.
Dodd then advocated “City Plan
ning.” “A town expecting to grow
should have a master plan, cover
ing an area larger than even the
wildest dreamer expects the town
to cover.” This plan, he said, will
lay out future streets, business and
residential sections, recreational
areas, parks, schools, all utility
lines and carriers. But, he said,
qualified city planners must be
used, who will work with civic
leaders. “The few thousand dol
lars spent for this planning will
be returned in the future many
times over,” the speaker concluded.
