Mike, are you complaining that you have not been billed at your higher tax rate yet?  Or, is it that you have received the specific increase in tax without an increase in service/protection?  I would consider it reasonable if the vote was in 2015 that it could take until 2017 before a plan was in place and the increase in taxes were started.  Perhaps something like a road service area with a local primary supervisor organization structure.  An erosion control service area created with the budget being the increase in taxes that were placed only on the folks in East Talkeetna. I am not sure why you would even need the borough to do this if the folks in your community would organize and become a incorporated city.  Perhaps the problem is with your mayor's inability to take action? :-)
