On this week's episode with host Davis Hovey, the owner of Kodiak Island Ambulatory Care Clinic is indicted for alleged tax evasion, the Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak crews medevac a container ship captain more than 1,000 miles away near Adak, the United Fishermen of Alaska has hired a new leader, an update on KIBSD's efforts to pay for their 26 international teachers' green cards, and the superintendent of KIBSD abruptly resigned this week.
Davis Hovey was first drawn to Alaska by the opportunity to work for a radio station in a remote, unique place like Nome. More than 7 years later he has spent most of his career reporting on climate change and research, fisheries, local government, Alaska Native communities and so much more.
Federal prosecutors said in court filings earlier this month on Sept. 17, that Dr. John Koller, the Kodiak Island Ambulatory Care Clinic’s medical director and owner, allegedly avoided paying accurate income taxes over several years.
Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak crews flew over a thousand miles to medevac a 58-year-old man from a container ship near the edge of the Aleutian Islands earlier this week, Sept 29 into Sept. 30.
This year, every school in the district is fully staffed with teachers. KIBSD acting superintendent Damon Hargraves says he can't remember this happening in the last fifteen years.
Brigman has worked for the school district for less than three months. The president of the KIBSD Board of Education said he will not receive a buyout.
