ROBERT SHARP—
(Continued from Page 1)
up regulatory licenses, health, po
lice and so on to help defray ex
pense. Matching federal and ter
ritorial funds. Public works proj
ects where the federal govern
ment pays half and the city half.
Health and welfare matching
funds. A sales tax if the people
vote it. Municipal services such
as garbage and airport mainte
nance should be self supporting.
Ownership and operation of pub
lic utilities if the people so vote.
(Anchorage derives 25% or about
$750,000 a year from public utili
ties).
Government Branches
Sharp outlined the three prin
cipal branches of city govern
ment: legislative, the council and
mayor; executive, the mayor or
city manager plan, and clerk
treasurer; judiciary, the munici
i pal court. In addition there will
be boards and commissions such
as parks and playgrounds, plan
ning and zoning, building code,
filled by volunteers appointed by
the council.
“Any municipality can do only
what the legislature has delegat
ed,” Sharp pointed out. Specific
powers of an incorporated city in
clude:
Lives, safety, health, wellbeing,
fire protection, police protection,
relief of the indigent, election
and operation of a council, public
works, public utilities inside and
outside city limits; roads and
trails outside; parks, playgrounds;
Poll tax (none in the territory),
tax and control of dogs according
to the last legislation; general
property tax for school and utili
ty purposes. (In an incorporated
school district such as Palmer, the
last legislature made incorporated
school districts independent. The
municipality has the right to the
taxes within the city limits, the
school outside).
The city has the right to regu
late public service rates such as
■ power and water; to prohibit
[ drinking, gambling and prosti
• tution; to set limited penalties for
law violation; to maintain a jail;
I to license vendors, peddlers etc.;
! control wood, coal and light fuel
| yards; control public utilities and
i radio intercommunication.
Olher City Rights
The city may combine certain
municipal offices: acquire and
sell property with the voters’ rati
fication, except Alaska Housing
Authority; regulate motor ve
hicles and taxies; provide a min
imum of garbage collection; cre
ate a city plan building code and
zoning; incur indebtedness for
public works under the bill of
limitations—generally not in ex
cess of 10 percent of real and
personal property value. A city
may change an election if the
change does not lengthen the
terms of office.
Sharp said Anchorage had
found a one year term was not
long enough for continuity, that
the time was too short for a
councilman to gain the necessary
background and experience to
make him valuable on the job.
Among other rights the city
may regulate public service rates
after proper hearings; regulate
food dispensaries; make special
levies for special work after peti
tion by 50 percent of the property
owners; create improvement dist
ricts for special worx without
petition; adopt or discard the city
management plan on petition of
25 percent of the electors; tax
up to 3 percent of the total assess
ed valuation; vacate streets and
alleys; exact a sales tax if
the voters approve; make liquor
Price Ceilings Set
On Restaurants;
Restaurants, caterers and road
houses in Alaska are now under
a specific ceiling price regulation
Fred G. Hanford, territorial dir
ector of the office of Price Sta
bilization, announced. All res
tauranteurs must adjust their
prices each four months starting
April 1. ,
The regulation requires res
taurant operators to adjust meal
prices according to food costs. It
requires operators to select a base
period which may be either the
entire 1949 calendar year or the
12-month period ending June 30,
1950. Income tax reports are suf
ficient to establish a base period.
Purpose of the base period is *
to establish a food-cost-per dol
lar of gross sales. For example,
if gross income in the base period
was $50,000, and the cost of the
food for this period was $25,000,
the food cost per each dollar of
income would be 50 cents. At the
end of this 4-months period
(April 1 to August 1), the res
taurant owner must re-figure his
income against cost and, if his
food costs have gone up, he may
increase his menu prices to re
flect the increase. However, if his
food costs have gone down in
this period, he must adjust his
menu prices downward accord
ingly.
Main idea, Hanford said, is to
maintain the same food-cost-per
dollar which was in effect before
the Korean war. The regulation
makes no provisions for passing',
on increases in fixed operating
pvnpnvtps
On or before April 30, restaur
I ant owners must file with the Of
fice of Price Stabilization the fol
lowing information:
1— Name and address of res
i taurant and owner.
2— Statement giving the base
period which the operator has
chosen, either the calendar year
1949, or the 12-month period end
ing June 30, 1950.
3— Statement of gross sales for
the base period. If separate rec-*
| ords of alcoholic beverages were
i kept, these must be shown sep
! arately.
1 4—Statement of total food costs
during the base period.
5— Statement of any items,
other than food and beverages,
included in food costs (such as
ice, straws, napkins, etc.)
6— Statements of special char
ges such as cover, minimum,
bread-and-butter, service, enter-^
tainment, etc.
Exempt from the regulation
are hospitals, educational and
i fraternal organizations, charitable
and religious organizations and
| armed forces eating cooperatives.
| Also handicraft and work made
I by Indians.
I Hanford said copies of the re
gulation will be sent to all food
establishments when they are
available in the Juneau office.
rules in addition to but not less
than the territorial law.
“Whether Palmer incorporates
or not is up to the electors, and
in case of incorporation, so is the
choice of city council, and action
on major issues which will affect
the city,” Sharp concluded.
