Borough Size
(Continued from page 1)
ough Study Group, it has been
explained, a.; the Group will un
dertake to decide the form of
borough is moat suitable for the
entire area.
Questions confronting the
Group include: Do the people de
sire a first or second class bor
ough ? Do they want apportion
ment- according to the Borough
Act, which requires 25 per cent
of the voters ins hie first class
cities and 25 per cent of the vot
ers outside tfe&se areas to sign a
petition for a borough, or are
they in favor of the amendment
recently drawn up by the Legis
lation com mi‘.tee of the local
Study Group? What should the
name of the borough be ? Where
should the borough seat be lo
ca ted ?
If the people themselves do not
make known their opinions on
these questions, the decision will
be taken out of their hands
through legislative action. Then
it will be too late to complain,
local lesidents are warned.
In October 1961, the Alaska
Legislature passed what is known
as the Borough Act. By this act
the State of Alaska became one
unorganized borough. The people
of the state now have until July
1953 to make up their minds as
to whether or not they want to
have an organized borough, and
as to its size and boundaries.
If by July 1963, an organized
borough is not formed, the State
Legislature will then establish
whatever area that is involved
into an unorganized borough.
On January 27, 1962, the Kenai
Peninsula Borough Study Group
w-as formed and various commit
tees began operation. The Legis
lative Committee drew up an
amendment that was passed by
the Study Group and sent to the
state legislators asking their sup
port.
The amendment, which is felt
to he needed to protect the people
of the Kenai Peninsula, reads as
follows: "When a borough is to
be comprised of more than one
election district, at least 25 per
cent of the qualified voters of
each election district involved
must sign the petition for such a
borough.”
