The ABCs of Boroughs
i
The time has come, the
walrus said,*
To talk of many facts....
Of schools and roads and
borough health
And boundaries and tax.
It would be fun to go on telling fairy stories
and fables, but the walurs is right. It's time to
dispense with fantasy and talk facts.
Why Are We Voting?
The Constitution of the State of Alaska re
quires that boroughs be established. We are voting
to decide what kind of borough we want. A bor
ough is a form of local government whose powers
integrate with, and supplement, those of cities. It
is neither fantasy nor fantastic. We accepted the
borough when we ratified the constitution, and
again, when our representatives in the legislature
enacted a borough law. On Sept. 17, democracy
goes into action for the third time on boroughs.
What will Borough Government Mean?
A borough means local government for those
who do not have it; it does not mean more gov
ernment for those who have it already. It can
mean access to services such as flood control and
fire protection, and a voice in the operation of
schools—for those who have not had it before. It
can mean higher taxes—but in proportion to the
new services which we might demand, or which
we decide are required for the orderly growth of
the community.
Who Votes?
Anyone may vote who is a citizen of the United States, is at
least 19 years old, can read or speak English, has lived in Alaska
for a year and in the area encompassed by the Captain Cook Bor
ough for 30 days. No declaration of party or pre-registration is
necessary. Vote in your neighborhood precinct, between the hours
of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 17. Absentee ballots may
be obtained in Room 135 of the State Court Building in Anchorage.
What are the questions on the ballot?
SHOULD A CAPTAIN COOK FIRST CLASS ORGANIZED BOROUGH
BE INCORPORATED AS PROPOSED?
In voting yes or no on this question, you will be accepting or rejecting a soecified size and class of borough
(Captain Cook). The effect of this vote is double barrelled
'» 11 " .I
IF WE VOTE YES WE WILL HAVE
1. One borough, of approximately 26,000 square miles
and about 90,000 people.
2. A first class borough, in which the Assembly can
assume, by ordinance, powers of a first class city,
after approval and transfer by the affected city
i councils, public notice, hearings and a waiting
period. Services may be assumed in the area out
side cities which a first class city may perform
in the city.
3. A Borough Assembly of 13 members, plus admin
istrator, and a School Board of 7 members.
4. Four Assembly area-wide powers:
Education
Planning and zoning
Tax assessment and collection
Health
15. A borough government effective immediately, with
a 2-year transition period allowed for transfer of
IF WE VOTE NO WE WILL HAVE
1. Two boroughs formed by State law. one comprising
Election District 7 with roughly 23.000 square
miles and 5.500 people. The other ccmprising
Election District 8 with roughly 2,300 square miles
and 83.000 people. (1960 census figures).
2. Elections in each of above boroughs before Jan
uary ’264, to choose between a borough of
a r irs; Class—see left column,
fc. Or second class in which each additional power
desired must be petitioned for to Stale agen
cies, and voted upon in the area affected after
hearings before State agencies.
3. A Borough Assembly in District 8 of 11 members,
an administrator, and a school board of 7 members.
A Borough Assembly in District 7 of 5 plus admin
istrator and a school board of 5.
4. Three Assembly area-wide powers

5. Two borough governments, effective January. 1964.

A similar 2-year transition period is allowed.
B
QUESTION OF BROROUGH CHAIRMAN OR B3RQUQK
MANAGER FORM OF GOVERNMENT
The chief administrative officer of the borough will be either a hired bo.ou:,h manager or an elected borough
chairman, responsible for the administration of all borough affairs. You must choose, let's compare their powers:
■HHMKSWnm
Manager
1. Appointed by Assembly
Serves at pleasure of Assembly
3. Has no vote
4. Has no veto power
5. May not introduce ordinances
Chairman
1. Elected by voters

3. Has no vote
•4. Has veto power
5. May introduce ordinances
c.
ELECTION OF CANDIDATES FOR CHAIRMAN,
SCHOOL BOARD AND ASSEMBLY
Ballots for voters living inside the cities will look different from those for voters living outside the cities, as
the Assemblymen from Palmer and Anchorage will be members of each city's Council and their names will
not appear on the ballot. The Councils will decide which of their members are to serve on the Borough As
sembly. Palmer will be represented by one Assemblyman and Anchorage by five.
Inside, vote for

1 Borough Chairman
7 School Board members
1 Borough Chairman
7 School Board members
7 Borough Assembly members
