Assessing Department
MEMORANDUM
TO: Michael Powers, KIB Manager
FROM: Bill Roberts, KIB Assessor
DATE: March 28, 2017
SUBJECT: Preliminary research in to alternate revenue sources.
Michael,
As requested I have been researching revenue sources for the borough, other than an
increase of the mill rate on property owners. Following is a list of the potential revenue
sources I am investigating:
1. RAISE FISH AND SEVERANCE TAX TO A FLAT 2%
2. BRING BACK A TAX ON COMMERCIAL VESSELS EITHER AD VALOREM OR
A REASONABLE AMOUNT PER KEEL LENGTH, SAY $50 PER FOOT.
3. SIN TAX ON TOBACCO AND ALCOHOL
4. REVIEW OPTIONAL EXEMPTIONS FROM PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX, I.E.
EXEMPTION OF INVENTORIES, FIRST $20,000, FISHING GEAR,
AIRPLANES, ETC.
5. GROSS RECEIPTS TAX
6. A GENERAL BOROUGH SALES TAX
7. A PER HEAD SCHOOL TAX (CHECKING LEGALITY)
8.. INCREASING FEES TO COVER ACTUAL COSTS, I.E., BUILDING PERMITS,
ZONING PERMITS, etc.
Raising fish tax to a flat rate of 2%: Currently the raw fish and severance tax is tied to
the mill rate an d is 10.75 mills or 1.075% and generated $1.491M in 2015. A 2% tax
would generate an additional revenue of just over $1,000,000.
Commercial Vessel Ad Valorem Tax: Our last year for tracking vessels and fishing
gear, 2015, we carried a full and true value of $219,125,800. At 10.75 mills the tax
liability is $2,355,709.85. The breakdown in value is: Vessel Value $190,127,400, Gear
$29,008,400. It must be stressed that these are owner supplied values as we did not tax
vessels or gear, but required owners to report estimated values. If this tax were to be
levied, we would need to train a current KIB appraiser in boat valuation.
AGENDA ITEM #2.a.
Alternate Revenue Options
Page 4 of 23
Per Foot Tax on Vessels: In 2015 the total vessel keel length taxed at $1/foot was
roughly 25,119 feet. If the per foot tax were raised to $50/foot the tax generated would
be $1,255,955 and at $100/ foot it would be $2,511,910.
Tax on Tobacco and Alcohol: We can place an excise tax on tobacco. Sitka and
Anchorage tax on a mill rate of about 120 mills per cigarette. I feel that it would be
easier to craft a tax based on five cents per cigarette. Sitka, which is most similar to
Kodiak in total population generates a revenue of just under $400,000 with a mill rate of
123.1 mills per cigarette. By charging the tax to the supplier as an excise tax, this would
not require a vote as a sales tax. Alcohol is more involved and we can charge a sales
tax as long as we also have a sales tax on another item. In this case we do have a 5%
bed tax, which is basically a sales tax. We would need to have a vote if it is to be a
sales tax. It is possible that we could charge an excise tax at delivery to the retailer,
which would not require a vote. There are some court cases covering this. A very rough
guesstimate would be an addition $4-500,000 in alcohol tax. We would be taxing the
wholesale value as an excise tax.
Removing Option Exemption for first $20,000 of personal property: Based on the
spreadsheet that we used to determine the effect of exempting the firs $20,000 in
personal property, the revenue loss was $188,000. The ad valorem tax loss in aircraft
was $39,000.
Gross Receipts Tax: A gross receipts tax is basically an excise tax on all sales and
services. The tax is applied to the owner of a business and is based on their gross
receipts with no deductions for cost, labor, etc. I have reviewed some states with a
gross receipts tax and it is very straight forward. Some states like Nevada have various
tax rates for differing industries. They also have a non-tax limit of $4M. If we lowered the
non-tax limit to say $500,000 we would be only taxing larger corporations, such as fish
processing plants. How much revenue this would generate is difficult to discover. The
city sales tax could be used as a guideline but they stop charging tax after $750. One
scenario is to look just at fish processing plants (the tax could not legally be that limiting,
but for revenue estimates, it’s a beginning). The ex-vessel value of fish in 2015 was
$137.5M. Just using that value at 1% is $1. How much revenue this would generate is
difficult to discover. The city sales tax could be used as a guideline but they stop
charging tax after $750. One scenario is to look just at fish processing plants (the tax
could not be that narrow, but for revenue estimates, it’s a beginning). The ex-vessel
value of fish in 2015 was $137.5M. Just using that value at 1% is $1.37M at ½%
is$687,500. This demonstrates that a broad gross receipts tax could generate well in
excess of $1.5 to 2M.
A general Borough Sales Tax: A general sales tax would need to be approved by the
voters and has been voted down twice in my history in the borough. The city generates
about $1.4M per percent of tax with their present structure which has a $750 limit that
can be taxed. If we were to structure a sales tax it would be best to follow the city’s
model for ease of retailers. I would expect only slightly higher revenue borough-wide, as
there are fewer retailers and service providers that are outside of the city limits.
AGENDA ITEM #2.a.
Alternate Revenue Options
Page 5 of 23
A Per Head School Tax: Currently there is a bill in the house to raise a school tax as
part of a general income tax. It does not appear that the borough can institute a per
head school tax on its own.
Increasing Fees: An increase in fees would help fund those departments that actually
have fees, most notably the building department. A recent move to increase these fees
was voted down by the assembly, but if opinions have changed we can dust off the
numbers from the report presented to the assembly by Bob Pederson on building fees.
We could also raise fees for zoning compliance and subdivisions.
Respectfully
Bill Roberts

May 20, 2020
I hope that over the last few months AML has been helpful, and that our support has contributed to the
good work you’ve been able to accomplish during this public health emergency and economic crisis. We
are committed to strengthening our support in the coming months.
AML isn’t just a bystander during this period; we’ve definitely been impacted as an organization and
expect this to continue throughout next year. Staff time has been reallocated to support members
during this crisis, and we expect sponsors and other outside support to diminish.
With that in mind, and in the hope that not only can we remain a strong organization but also grow and
expand to meet the additional needs of our members, we are making this additional request of you.
As you can see, we hope to shore up where we are currently impacted but also make strategic decisions
that strengthen our capacity to help members during the public health emergency. We believe that this
is a necessary and allowable expenditure from your CARES Act funding, which makes this request less
burdensome, hopefully, during a difficult time for all of us.
Ultimately, we are sure that your investment in AML will benefit you and all members over the coming
months.
Please let me know if you have questions or would like to discuss this proposal in detail.
Respectfully,
Nils Andreassen
Executive Director

Alaska Municipal League Request For Supplemental Funding (Due to COVID-1...
Page 7 of 23
Statement of Need
AML has devoted a significant amount of staff time and organizational resources to support members
through this public health emergency. While the last few months have been challenging, we’re glad to
have been able to play some role that’s been helpful to our members. We know, too, that this public
health emergency and economic crisis will continue. We’ve begun planning now for how to continue this
support through FY21 and beyond. A lot of that will mean shoring up our current capacity and investing
in additional measures – staff and outreach – that augment member capacity and support members.
Request of Members
One of the very clear allowable expenditures of CARES Act funding is in support of organizations that are
impacted by the public health emergency or are providing services in support of or response to this
crisis. Granting funds to AML during this time, we believe, is a justifiable expense that benefits both AML
and members. We’ve created this request for supplemental fees that you can treat as optional (but
hope that you respond positively to), to be paid for from CARES Act funding as you are able. None of
these funds will be used for lobbying purposes. We’ve estimated our total needs and pro-rated them
across members. You can choose to follow this format for granting purposes or come up with a flat
amount that is consistent with your budget and other community needs.
What AML will do with these funds:
• Invest in the Remote Sales Tax program to further bring down fees and recruit new members
• Ensure social distancing and additional hygiene and sanitation measures at upcoming events
• Develop a shared service program in support of CARES Act compliance, reporting, and grants
o Implement a CARES Act hotline for accounting and legal questions to be answered
• Invest in additional crisis communications for FY21 – public outreach, local government value
• Support NLC and NACo outreach and communications
Justification
AML is a nonprofit impacted by the COVID-19 crisis, with unanticipated costs that were not budgeted for
in FY20 and that will continue to be impacted in FY21. At the same time, as a member-service
organization, we can augment the capacity of local governments and provide real value in support of
public health response and management, and economic relief for residents and businesses. Investments
that AML makes during this time lower the costs of doing business for members and ultimately Alaska
communities. These actions would not otherwise be necessary without an ongoing public health and
economic crisis.
Note, for budget purposes: The AML Annual Local Government Conference will be dedicated to the
Costs of COVID – Crisis Management and Recovery. We would argue that this is an allowable
expenditure for participation by members, which CARES Act funding may be used for.

ASSEMBLY WORK SESSION
Kodiak Island Borough
SUBJECT: Retention and Storing of the Emergency Operations Center Records.
ORIGINATOR: Alise Rice
RECOMMENDATION:
• Sign a Memorandum Of Agreement with the City of Kodiak to outline management
responsibilities of the jointly owned EOC records.
• Adopt a resolution establishing a joint Records Retention Schedule with the City of
Kodiak for the Emergency Operation Center Records.
DISCUSSION:
To ensure compliance with Alaska Public Records Act and the governing municipal records
laws, a resolution establishing a records retention schedule that mirrors the City of Kodiak is
important. The records of the EOC are jointly held by the City and Borough, the City has
offered to manage and house these records.
The objective is:
• To establish a consistent joint records retention schedule that will guide Emergency
Operation Center staff to create and maintain necessary records.
o The city has provided a in depth retention schedule for review. The information
for this schedule was pulled from the Division of Homeland Security and other
relevant sources.
o I recommend having this schedule reviewed by our attorney for approval.
• Sign a MOA with the City of Kodiak for the management of the jointly owned records.
o I have provided an amended version of the MOU between the City and the
Borough that was passed as a part of the City's Resolution 2020-19, on July
23, 2020.
o The MOU that was adopted as apart of the City's resolution was not approved
by the Assembly, Borough Manager or Borough Clerk.
• Pass a Resolution adopting:
o A Memorandum of Agreement with the City of Kodiak for jointly owned EOC
records management.
o A Joint Records Retention Schedule for the EOC records.
ALTERNATIVES:
• Create, house, and manage a copy of the jointly owned records.
o Not recommended, this would be a costly expense.
• For the Borough to house and manage the jointly owned records.
o Not recommended, the City has the room for the records and the records
management software available. They have also already created a in depth
records retention schedule and planned out the management of the records.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING AGREEMENT
This Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU” or “Memorandum”), is entered into on July
15, 2020 (the Effective Date”), by and between the City of Kodiak and the Kodiak Island
Borough both located at 710 Mill Bay Road, Kodiak, Alaska.
1. Mission
The Emergency Operations Center (EOC) is the operational component of the Emergency Services
Council as defined in KCC 2.32.030 and KIBC 2.110.30. The EOC as part of the Emergency Services
Council is an “instrumentality” of both Kodiak Island Borough and the City of Kodiak; therefore,
the entities have records management responsibilities and obligations.
2. Purpose
The City of Kodiak and the Kodiak Island Borough have agreed to establish a Memorandum of
Understanding to outline the records management responsibilities for the Emergency Operations
Center (EOC) to ensure compliance with Alaska Public Records Act and the governing municipal
records laws.
3. Records
Because the Emergency Services Council is a joint entity, the records created by the Emergency
Services Council in the course of its activities and in the operation of the EOC (EOC Records) are
both records of the City of Kodiak and Records of the Kodiak Island Borough. Regardless of the
location of physical custody of EOC Records, EOC Records shall be considered official records of
both the City of Kodiak and the Kodiak Island Borough. The City of Kodiak and the Kodiak Island
Borough shall each have equal access to the EOC Records, regardless of which entity acts as
physical custodian of the EOC Records. No EOC Records may be destroyed or disposed without
consent of both the City of Kodiak and the Kodiak Island Borough.
For purposes of this MOA, EOC Records do not include separate City of Kodia k records relating
solely to separate City of Kodiak emergency response or expenditures by the City of Kodiak
pursuant to KCC 2.32.060, and do not include separate Kodiak Island Borough records relating
solely to separate Kodiak Island Borough emergency response or expenditures by the Kodiak Island
Borough records relating to expenditures by the Kodiak Island Borough pursuant to KIBC
2.110.060, which records remain separate records of each respective local government.
3. 4. Responsibilities and Obligations of the Parties
a) To establish a joint Records Retention Schedule (RRS) for the Emergency Operations
Center that will be approved by the respective governing bodies and comply with KCC
2.36.
b) The City of Kodiak shall be the municipality responsible for retaining EOC records in
compliance with the joint RRS.
c) The City staff shall work with Emergency Services Organization to create, maintain, and
preserve the EOC records in an efficient manner using their records and document

management system; email retention software; and social media software.
d) When EOC Records become eligible for disposal under the Joint RRS tThe City staff shall,
after receiving concurrence from the Borough that the identified EOC Records are suitable for
disposal in accordance with the RSS, dispose the EOC records in an efficient manner using
their records and document management system; email retention software; and social
media software.
e) The City shall maintain inactive records in a storage facility.
f) The City Information Systems staff shall implement and provide ongoing support of the
approved records management applications supporting the EOC records management
program.
g) The City staff shall be designated the primary official to receive EOC public records
requests.
h) The City staff shall provide access to, and copies of, any EOC Records sought Borough staff
upon request without charge.
i) Should this MOA expire, the City staff will, upon request and without charge, provide the
Borough with copies of any EOC Records which have not been destroyed in accordance
with the Joint RSS.
4. 5. Objective
The City and Borough will work together to establish and maintain a consistent Joint Records
Retention Schedule that will guide EOC staff to create and maintain the necessary records; while
providing expectations for the City staff assigned to properly manage the lifecycle of records in
the Emergency Operations Center.
5.6. Term
The term of this Memorandum shall be for a period of one-year from the effective date and
maybe extended upon written mutual agreement of both Parties.
Signed and agreed upon this _____ day of ________, 2020.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Michael Powers, Borough Manager
FROM: Dora Cross, Finance Director
DATE: July 29, 2020
SUBJECT: Update of Mr. Roberts prior memo regarding alternate revenue sources
As requested, I have reviewed Mr. Roberts prior memo dated March 2017, which is
attached, regarding alternate revenue sources for the borough. Although many of the
items on Mr. Roberts' list are still current, I have updated his list and added some
additional items and information. As well as including the indicated attachments in the
body of the memo, I have also included the 'Alaska Tax Facts' from the Alaska Office
of the State Assessor's webpage and a portion of their 'Alaska Taxable 2019' annual
compilation report for municipal comparison information.
List of Potential Revenue Sources (details to follow) :
• Change the severance tax rate.*
• Add an ad valorem tax on commercial vessels.'
• Add a per keel length tax on commercial vessels.*
• Add an excise tax or sales tax on alcohol.*
• Remove or reduce optional exemptions from personal property.*
• Add a gross receipts tax.*
• Add a general borough sales tax.*
• Add a per head school tax (checking legality)
• Increase in fees.
• Change the excise tax rate on tobacco.*
• Change the excise tax on rate on marijuana.*
• Change the ad valorem tax on motor vehicles.*
* Indicates it affects the MATR (maximum allowable tax revenue) calculations.
Severance tax rate: Currently the local severance tax is tied to the mill rate and is
10.75 mills or 1.075% and generated $1.491 M in 2015. A 2% tax would generate
additional revenue of just over $1,000,000.
• Tax collections in FY2019 totaled $1,206,697; FY2020 (as of 7129) is $1,127,716.
• The assembly debated a flat rate and made the decision to keep it tied to the mill
rate during their June 2019 budget process.
Ad Valorem Tax on Commercial Vessels: 2015 was our last year for tracking vessels
and fishing gear and we carried a full and true value of $219,125,800. At 10.75 mills the
tax levy was $2,355,709; vessel value $190,127,400, and gear
value $29,008,400. It must be stressed that we did not assess vessels or gear but
required owners to estimate and report those values. If this tax were to be levied, we
would need to train an assessing employee in boat valuation.
Per Foot Tax on Vessels: In 2015 the total vessel keel length was roughly 25,119
feet and was taxed at $1/foot. This tax was eliminated due to the administration costs
outweighing the revenues generated at the $/foot rate. If the per foot tax were raised
to $50/foot the tax generated would be $1,255,955 and at $100/ foot it would be
$2,511,910.
Sales or Excise or Tax on Alcohol: Taxing alcohol is a more involved process and we
would need to have a sales tax on more than one item. In this case, we do have a 5%
transient accommodations tax (bed tax), which is basically a sales tax. We would also
need to submit the sales tax question to the voters for approval. For an excise tax,
which does not require submitting a question to the voters, we could charge a tax on
the wholesale value at the point of delivery to the retailer. There are some court cases
covering this. A very rough guesstimate would be an addition $400,000-$500,000 in
alcohol tax revenues.
Option Exemption on Personal Property: The Ordinance exempting the first
$20,000 of personal property was approved in FY2011. For 2015, the effect of
exempting the first $20,000 in personal property meant a revenue loss of $188,000;
the ad valorem revenue loss for aircrafts was $39,000.
Gross Receipts Tax: A gross receipts tax is basically an excise tax on all sales and
services. The tax is applied to the owner of a business and is based on their gross
receipts with no deductions for cost, labor, etc. I have reviewed some states with a
gross receipts tax and it is very straight forward. Some states like Nevada have various
tax rates for differing industries. They also have a non -tax limit of $4M. If we lowered the
non -tax limit to say $500,000 we would be only taxing larger corporations, such as fish
processing plants. How much revenue this would generate is difficult to discover. The
city sales tax could be used as a guideline but they stop charging tax after $750. One
scenario is to look just at fish processing plants (the tax could not legally be that limiting,
but for revenue estimates, it is a beginning). The ex -vessel value of fish in 2015 was
$137.5M. Just using that value at, a 1% tax would generate $1.37M and a Y2% would
generate $687,500. This demonstrates that a broad gross receipts tax could generate
well in excess of $1.5 to $2M.
General Borough Sales Tax: A general sales tax would also need to be approved by
the voters and has been voted down twice in Mr. Roberts history in the borough. The
city generates about $1.4M per percent of tax with their present structure which has a
$750 taxable limit. If we were to structure a sales tax it would be best to follow the city's
model for the ease of retailers. 1 would expect only slightly higher revenue borough -
wide, as there are fewer retailers and service providers that are outside of the city limits.
Per Head School Tax: Currently there is a bill in the State house to raise a school
tax as part of a general income tax. It does not appear that the borough can institute
a per head school tax on its own.
Increasing Fees: An increase in fees and permits would help fund those departments
that have fees, most notably the building department.
• The assembly debated increasing fees in June 2020 and did make decisions to
change some fees. These fees are reviewed and authorized annually by the
assembly.
Excise Tax on Tobacco: An excise tax on tobacco and tobacco products was levied
in 2018. The current tax rate is $0.05 per cigarette and 25% of the wholesale price of
tobacco products brought into the borough.
• Tax collections in FY2019 totaled $423,979; FY2020 (as of 7129) are $275,499.
• There is an ordinance currently being considered by the assembly to raise the
tax rate to $0.075 per cigarette and to 37.5% for other tobacco products. The
ordinance also includes vaping products which were previously excluded from
taxation.
Excise Tax on Marijuana: An excise tax on marijuana cultivation was enacted in
2017. The current tax rate is 20% of the per -ounce tax imposed by the state of Alaska.
• Tax collections in FY2019 totaled $1,465; FY2020 (as of 7129) are $1,449.
Ad Valorem Tax on Motor Vehicles: The current tax structure was last changed with
Ordinance FY2006 (attached) and taxes vehicle years 2007 and older. For comparison
the tax rates for the Ketchikan Gateway Borough and the Municipality of Anchorage
are attached.
• Tax collections in FY2019 totaled $220,392; FY2020 (as of 7129) are $181,620.

Dora Cross

Assessing Department
MEMORANDUM
TO: Michael Powers, KIB Manager
FROM: Bill Roberts, KIB Assessor
DATE: March 28, 2017
SUBJECT: Preliminary research in to alternate revenue sources.
Michael,
As requested 1 have been researching revenue sources for the borough, other than an
increase of the mill rate on property owners. Following is a list of the potential revenue
sources I am investigating:
1. RAISE FISH AND SEVERANCE TAX TO A FLAT 2%
2. BRING BACK A TAX ON COMMERCIAL VESSELS EITHER AD VALOREM OR
A REASONABLE AMOUNT PER KEEL LENGTH, SAY $50 PER FOOT.
S. SIN TAX ON TOBACCO AND ALCOHOL
4. REVIEW OPTIONAL EXEMPTIONS FROM PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX, I.E.
EXEMPTION OF INVENTORIES, FIRST $20,000, FISHING GEAR,
AIRPLANES, ETC.
5. GROSS RECEIPTS TAX
6. A GENERAL BOROUGH SALES TAX
7. A PER HEAD SCHOOL TAX (CHECKING LEGALITY)
8.. INCREASING FEES TO COVER ACTUAL COSTS, I.E., BUILDING PERMITS,
ZONING PERMITS, etc.
Raising fish tax to a flat rate of 2%: Currently the raw fish and severance tax is tied to
the mill rate an d is 10.75 mills or 1.075% and generated $1.491 M in 2015. A 2% tax
would generate an additional revenue of just over $1,000,000.
Commercial Vessel Ad Valorem Tax: Our last year for tracking vessels and fishing
gear, 2015, we carried a full and true value of $219,125,800. At 10.75 mills the tax
liability is $2,355,709.85. The breakdown in value is: Vessel Value $190,127,400, Gear
$29,008,400. It must be stressed that these are owner supplied values as we did not tax
vessels or gear, but required owners to report estimated values. If this tax were to be
levied, we would need to train a current KIB appraiser in boat valuation.
Per Foot Tax on Vessels: In 2015 the total vessel keel length taxed at $1/foot was
roughly 25,119 feet. If the per foot tax were raised to $50/foot the tax generated would
be $1,255,955 and at $100/ foot it would be $2,511,910.
Tax on Tobacco and Alcohol: We can place an excise tax on tobacco. Sitka and
Anchorage tax on a mill rate of about 120 mills per cigarette. I feel that it would be
easier to craft a tax based on five cents per cigarette. Sitka, which is most similar to
Kodiak in total population generates a revenue of just under $400,000 with a mill rate of
123.1 mills per cigarette. By charging the tax to the supplier as an excise tax, this would
not require a vote as a sales tax. Alcohol is more involved and we can charge a sales
tax as long as we also have a sales tax on another item. In this case we do have a 5%
bed tax, which is basically a sales tax. We would need to have a vote if it is to be a
sales tax. It is possible that we could charge an excise tax at delivery to the retailer,
which would not require a vote. There are some court cases covering this. A very rough
guesstimate would be an addition $4-500,000 in alcohol tax. We would be taxing the
wholesale value as an excise tax.
Removing Option Exemption for first $20,000 of personal property: Based on the
spreadsheet that we used to determine the effect of exempting the firs $20,000 in
personal property, the revenue loss was $188,000. The ad valorem tax loss in aircraft
was $39,000.
Gross Receipts Tax: A gross receipts tax is basically an excise tax on all sales and
services. The tax is applied to the owner of a business and is based on their gross
receipts with no deductions for cost, labor, etc. I have reviewed some states with a
gross receipts tax and it is very straight forward. Some states like Nevada have various
tax rates for differing industries. They also have a non -tax limit of $4M. If we lowered the
non -tax limit to say $500,000 we would be only taxing larger corporations, such as fish
processing plants. How much revenue this would generate is difficult to discover. The
city sales tax could be used as a guideline but they stop charging tax after $750. One
scenario is to look just at fish processing plants (the tax could not legally be that limiting,
but for revenue estimates, it's a beginning). The ex -vessel value of fish in 2015 was
$137.5M. Just using that value at 1 % is $1. How much revenue this would generate is
difficult to discover. The city sales tax could be used as a guideline but they stop
charging tax after $750. One scenario is to look just at fish processing plants (the tax
could not be that narrow, but for revenue estimates, it's a beginning). The ex -vessel
value of fish in 2015 was $137.5M. Just using that value at 1 % is $1.37M at 1/2%
is$687,500. This demonstrates that a broad gross receipts tax could generate well in
excess of $1.5 to 2M.
A general Borough Sales Tax: A general sales tax would need to be approved by the
voters and has been voted down twice in my history in the borough. The city generates
about $1.4M per percent of tax with their present structure which has a $750 limit that
can be taxed. If we were to structure a sales tax it would be best to follow the city's
model for ease of retailers. I would expect only slightly higher revenue borough -wide, as
there are fewer retailers and service providers that are outside of the city limits.
A Per Head School Tax: Currently there is a bill in the house to raise a school tax as
part of a general income tax. It does not appear that the borough can institute a per
head school tax on its own.
Increasing Fees: An increase in fees would help fund those departments that actually
have fees, most notably the building department. A recent move to increase these fees
was voted down by the assembly, but if opinions have changed we can dust off the
numbers from the report presented to the assembly by Bob Pederson on building fees.
We could also raise fees for zoning compliance and subdivisions.

Alaska Tax Facts
• Alaska is the largest of the United States; however, for all its vastness only a small portion of the land
mass is subject to a property tax.
• There are approximately 321 communities in Alaska, many of which still remain unincorporated.
• There are 165 incorporated municipalities (local governments), 19 of which are incorporated into
boroughs (boroughs are a rough equivalent to counties) and the remainder are incorporated as cities.
• Of the 19 boroughs in Alaska, only 15 levy a property tax.
• Only 9 cities located outside of boroughs levy a property tax; therefore, only 24 municipalities in
Alaska (either cities or boroughs) levy a property tax_
• One hundred and seven municipalities (reporting) levy a general sales tax. Sales tax rates range from
a low of 1 % to a high of 7%.
• The "typical' sales tax rates within Alaska range from 2%-5%.
r Other types of local taxes levied are raw fish taxes, hotel/motel "bed" taxes, severance taxes, liquor
and tobacco taxes, gaming (pull tabs) taxes and fuel transfer taxes.
• in 2014, local governments generated approximately $1.66 billion in revenues from property taxes,
sales taxes and other taxes. Of that amount, $1.34 billion was from property taxes.
• Oil & Gas properties, such as the Trans -Alaska Pipeline, contribute a little over $426 million in
property taxes to local government.
• Alaska exempts from property taxes the first $150,000 of assessed value for all senior citizens (65
years of age and over) and disabled veterans (50% or more service connected disability).
• The average assessed value exempted from taxes for senior citizens and disabled veterans is
$139,393 which equated to a tax exemption of $1,965 for 2017.
• In 2014, the total full value for all municipalities was $108.6 billion (including TAPS). For 2014 the
statewide population was 736,399, which means that the per -capita full value was $147,519.
• The average per -capita property tax paid in all municipalities, excluding oil and gas properties, was
$1,435.
• There is no statewide sales tax levied.
• There is no personal state income tax.

Exemption History
AS 29,45.030(e) - (i)
Ten Year Performance Summary
State law exempts real property owned and occupied as a permanent bome by a resident, 65 years of age or older, or, by a disabled veteran with a 50°/.
or greater service -connected disability, or by a widow/widower to or greater than the age of 60 of either of the two prior categories. The exemption
applies to the first S 150,000 of assessed valuation, and applicants must apply directly to their municipality. In 2002 legislation was passed which would
allow municipalities to set its filing deadline; this legislation also allows for a "one time filing" for the program. Program costs have exceeded funding
levels from the state since 1986 resulting in prorating payments to eligible municipalities. The Alaska Legislature has not funded the reimbursement for
the program since FY 1997, Tax Year 1996.
