City Council, Weighed Down with
Problems Galore, Handed Orchid
Of Praise for Airport Terminal
An orchid blossomed among thr
various city housekeeping routine
i matters at a regular city council
meeting last night.
It came in the form of the read
; ing of a Pan American World Air
ways press release praising Juneau
I for having "the finest small air
terminal built anywhere in the last
10 years.” The release has been
dr tributed to aviation magazines
and newspapers all over the world
where PAA flies.
Routine matters taken up included
coining election details, purchase of
a police radio system, a Juneau
Water Co. report, street repairs, a
request by the Juneau Independent
School District to increase millage
tax to balance its budget, a peti
tion to change closing hours of
cocktail bars and liquor stores, and
preparation of a budget for the
coming year.
A special city election will be
held Sept. 18 to pass on a city
ordinance changing the terms of
city cutmeilmcn so that three will
he elected each for a term of two
years, making a rarry-over of three
councilmen yearly.
Approval was given for the fol
lowing voting precincts: No. 1, new
library basement if permission can
be obtained from the Alaska Pub
lic Works: No. 2, Alaska Electric
Light and Power Co.; No. 3, Juneau
Dairies.
I'pping Mill Rate
A request by the school district
for authority to raise the school
millage tax up to one-half mill was
referred! to the council when it meets -
as a board of equalization next
week. The request explained that
unforeseen costs in construction of
a high school addition and bulkhead
around the grade school grounds
made the request necessary in order
to balance the school budget.
An application from the Com
munity Building board for tax
exemption for another year was
laid over until the next regular
meeting.
It was decided to lay over a Ju
neau Water Co. report until the next
meeting when C. J. Ehrendreich,
city accountant, and H. L. Faulkner,
attornej' for the company, could be
present and the report could be dis
cussed.
Fire Alarm Rig
A change order in the new fire
siation by Fire Chief Minard Mill
was approved. It involved $504 for
extensions of conduits in the fire
alarm system and to have all fire
alarm equipment placed together.
A petition was presented by 16
owners of cocktail bars and liquor
stores to allow an extra hour reg
ular nightly closing time from
1 to 2 a.m. and to 3 a.m. on Sat
urdays and days preceding holi
days. It was referred to the
police committee.
A© amendment to a city ordinance
regulating light meter rates for the
small boat harbor was passed on
first reading. It provides that elec
tric energy to the city there will be
at 3’i cents per kilowatt hour and
to boat owners, 5 cents per kilo
watt hour for the first 100 hours
with a graduated scale of 4 cents
for the second 100 and 3 cents above
that.
This will place boat owners who
live on their boats on a rate par
with home owners, it was ex
plained by Franz Nagel, manager
of the power company.
It was suggested by Councilman
F.1 Neilson that all city departments
be asked to submit budgets for the
coming year and make an inventory
for the incoming council next
month. B
Police Radio
The matter of purchasing a po
lice radio system was discussed and
the police committee, headed bv
Councilman George Jorgenson, will
have a report for action at the nest
meeting, he promised.
Referred to the library committee
— Councilman Bert Caro chairman
— was a request by Librarian Edna
Heaton Lomen for the appointment
of a library advisory board.
Handbills Denied
A request was denied to R. T. Irby
for dropping handbills on the city
from an airplane to advertise a
bazaar. It was pointed out that the
handbills would plug roof and other

drains and clutter up the city street
An application for the job as city
engineer from Terrence Robbins of
Fairbanks was filed.
The council voted for the city
clerk to order the Juneau Water
Co. to repair Main St. by the new
library before Oct. 1. A break in
a water main has undermined the
pavement causing serious breaks.
It was specified in the motion
that the "street be placed in as
good condition as before the
break.”
Other street matters dii-cu: ed
concerned littering streets with
debris falling from trucks haulin'
o the city dump, city drainage prob
lems and repair of stairways.
Here are some quotations from
Pan American’s “deathless prose'
which it distributed:
“Up in Alaska the city of Juneau
— small by Stateside standards
has pulled an aviation rabbit on'
of the hat that many a big city
might envy.
“Juneau is the proud owner of r
slick, modern airport terminal, cum
plete with thermopane __ window
fluorescent lighting and padder
chrome easy chairs.
“But it’s not the facade or th“
fittings that make this municipr"
terminal stand out. It’s the simple,
and rather unusual fact that both
'he airlines that use it and the city
itself are both pleased and saT
fied.
“The airlines, who ultimately pa
for the terminals they use, have
found low rental rates and a build
ing designed to suit them. The city
has a terminal as modern as any
and a paying, self-liquidating pr ,p
osition that puts no stress on the
municipal exchequer.
“And what s more no federal
money or aid went into its build
ing.
"Airline executives, who can
hardly believe it has happened at
last, point out as a neon-lit ex
ample of what can be done by in
telligent planning and cooperati u.
“In planning and building lb*
Juneau airport terminal, or. ,ts
and rates for use were figured in
advance with the full eoopera- ;
tion of all concerned. Tin's i a
radical departure, according to |
airline men, from the usual m b
od of building a terminal and ■
then slapping on rates to enable !
the project to break even. lair,
an airline beef has arisen over
this item in the past.
“The terminal was promoted by j
the city of Juneau in conjunction j
with the airlines. Specifications
and detail:, of financing were drawn
tip by the city and -the airlines,:
with the assistance of the Terri- j
torial Government. This project j
had its beginning in March, TJ-*7,
after six years of effort to secure
Federal aid.
"In the final plans $10,000 c£
construction cost was covered by
grant of Territorial gasoline tax
revenue.;. The balance of the fin
ancin ■ was clone by a $50,000 rev
enue bond issue privately sub
scribed.
“Revenues from the use of the
facilities by the airlines and by
concessionaires were planned to
pay off the obligations in 15 years
plus operating and maintenance
costs.
“The layouts have made passen
ger handliu , a less difficult thing
than in pinny an unplanned ter
minal building.
“This terminal is one of the
me t efficient on the West Coast
when it comes to passenger hand
ling,” savs Fred Dunn, Pan Am
erican's district traffic manager.
Juneau residents and Alaska
bi r,steps feel sure that more and
more visitor; will fly ia to this
airport.
