The Ketchikan Gateway Borough Assembly on Monday will meet in person for the first time in more than two months to hold a second work session to discuss ways to close an operating deficit in the boroughâs Local Education Fund.
Mondayâs regular meeting also will include an ordinance that would indefinitely extend a 5% marijuana tax in the borough and two public hearings.
Local education fund
As its first of two items of new business, the Assembly will enter a work session to discuss the ongoing Local Education Fund deficit.
Borough staff are currently projecting that the fund deficit in the 2022 fiscal year will be just over $1 million, which if implemented would draw the fund balance down to about $1.89 million.
