Alaska Statutes Sec. 29.60.860 - Per Capita Payment Increases

(a) Subject to (b) of this section, if the amount available for distribution under AS 29.60.850 (c) exceeds the amount needed to fully fund all the basic community revenue sharing payments, the balance shall be distributed on a per capita basis to municipalities, to reserves, and to communities in the unorganized borough.

(b) The per capita amount distributed to each community in the unorganized borough may not, when added to the basic community revenue sharing payment for that community, exceed the basic amount calculated under AS 29.60.855 (b)(3). If the per capita distribution for a community in the unorganized borough, when added to the basic community revenue sharing payment for that community, would exceed the basic amount calculated under AS 29.60.855 (b)(3), the excess amount shall be distributed on a per capita basis to other communities in the unorganized borough.

(c) For purposes of this section, the population of a municipality, reserve, or community shall be determined by using the numbers of permanent fund dividend recipients or other population data that the department determines is reliable. For purposes of determining the population of a borough, the population of each city in the borough shall be deducted from the total borough population.
