Letter to the Editor
Until recently, the gates on Tom
Stiles Road always have been
guarded by Marine sentries to pro
tect the security and property of
the Navy within its reservation. Un
fortunately, that situation created
some degree of inconvenience to
residents of the City of Kodiak who
traveled the road.
In order to improve public rela
tions and for the convenience of
all persons transiting the reserva
tion, I ordered the old gates to be
unmanned and established the new
gates o£f Tom Stiles Road.
This action to allow residents
free access to Tom Stiles Road,
however, did not altogether divest
the Navy of its right to regulate
and control the flow of traffic
within the Naval Reservation boun
daries.
While most Kodiak residents
obey the Navy’s traffic rules for
Tom Stiles Road, a few are ticketed
for various traffic violations. Viola
tors are then summoned to appear
before the Naval Station traffic
court administrator. Unfortunately,
statistics show, 10 per cent of the
violators fail to answer our sum
mons. Follow-up letters advising
them that they should appear be
fore the court do not seem to al
leviate matters either.
Perhaps it would be well to men
tion here that suspension of the
individual's privilege to drive on
the Naval Reservation for a period
of six months stands as the best
answer to one’s refusal to honor
our summons.
Recently, the undersigned was
constrained to impose this penalty
on eight violators who completely
ignored our summons and follow-up
letters.
Moreover, if a person is caught
driving on the Naval Reservation
under a suspended privilege, this
flB
Ph. 486-2662
has the same connotation of being
apprehended elsewhere for driving
without a license.
My duties as Commanding Of
ficer of the Naval Station Kodiak
include keeping our roads within
the Naval Reservation free of traf
fic hazards. Safety for all, military
as well as civilians, is one of my
main concerns.
I therefore ask and urge every
one to observe Naval Reservation
traffic rules, and those who have
been issued traffic summons are
requested to answer them in per
son. Failure to do so may unneces
sarily jeopardize other Kodiak
residents’ free access to Tom Stiles
Road, with possibly consequent
reimposition of the old practice of
manning the gates.
Sincerely yours,
R. P. Gee
