City Manager Discusses!
Problems He Faces
KODert snarp, Koaiaa s nrst
city manager, is busy getting
acquainted with the city’s per
sonnel, equipment and finan
cial status, he said this week
in an interview with the Mir
ror.
Sharp came here last week'
after attending the conven-j
tion of the League of Alaskan •
Cities in Cordova. Mrs. Sharp
and their two children, cur- •
rently in Anchorage, will
join him as soon as housing is
available. j
Kodiak’s “most obvious
problem”, Sharp said, is the
need for street improvement.
He is also studying the wa
ter and sewer systems to see
what is needed for them, and
is devoting some of his time to

the idea of a general munici
pal building to house all the
city’s offices and equipment.
“By consolidating every
thing into one building, there,
would bo a considerable sav
ing alone in maintenance,” he
said.
Sharp has worked with the j
city and the Chamber of Com-:
merce since his arrival in pre-!
paring material which Dele
gate Bartlett will present in
Washington this week before
the rivers and harbors com
mittee, in another effort to
get a small boat harbor for
the town.
He is also gathering data for
the League of Alaskan Cities,
which will try to get an ex
tension of Alaska Public
Works funds next year for
the territory.
The city manager will have
administrative supervision
over all city departments, will
recommend a budget and
legislation to the council for
its action, and will tackle
other eity problems as they
arise. Currently he said, he is
reviewing the ordinances and
studying the operations of the
various city departments.
‘ Financing is a problem for
all Alaskan cities, not just
Kodiak,” he pointed out,
‘‘especially those cities which
have had a growth above the
normal rate because of nearby
military installations.”
Sharp, who served as An
chorage city manager for two
years, said Kodiak’s problems
are similar, but ‘‘of a different
scope.”
He spent three years in An
chorage as deputy director and '
director of the War Assets j
Administration, two as comp.,
troller of the City of An
chorage, and two as city1
manager. He had returned to
California, when hired by the
City of Kodiak to come here
as manager.
