On Saturday at 12:50pm I received a call from our City Manager that we were going to have an emergency meeting regarding the 50 foot setback ordinance – as Assemblymen Bill Smith and Mako Haggerty were arriving at the airport at 1:15pm, Saturday the 25th of February, 2012.  Only 25 minutes notice!

There were quite a few folks who made it a priority  to get together on such short notice to speak with the assemblymen regarding this issue.  We had Jere Murray – Parks & Rec and concerned citizen, Paulie Carluccio – P&Z Commissioner for Seldovia and borough Planning representative, Gerry Patrick- council member , Vivian Rojas – council member, Walter McInnes – council member, Tim Dillon – city manager, Dean Lent, – council member, John Colberg – council member,  Robert Purpura – council member, Mako Haggarty – KPB Assembly, Bill Smith – KPB Assembly, Steve Stanish – representing Dillon & Dillon Construction, Jim Hopkins – Hopkins Brothers Construction, and  Jenny Chissus – Realtor, Seldovia Gazette Editor and concerned citizen.

UPDATE (6:46pm Tuesday the 28th):

Just spoke with the Homer office, and they just cut the lines to send the Tusty to Seldovia – she should arrive in Seldovia at 8:00pm!  Expect a quick turnaround in Seldovia – about a half hour – if possible!

UPDATE (2:06pm Tuesday the 28th):

I just checked in with the Homer terminal office, and on their voice recording this is the latest schedule:

Arrival in Homer from Kodiak:  4:30pm
Depart Homer for Seldovia:  5:00pm
Arrival in Seldovia from Homer:  6:30pm
Depart Seldovia for Homer:  7:00pm
Arrival in Homer from Seldovia:  8:15pm
Depart Homer for Kodiak:  10:30pm

Sounds like a BUSY day for the Tusty!!!
