Aleutians East Phone Directory for Borough Services

The Aleutians East Borough runs as a second class borough under Alaska Statutes Title 29, which sets out the rules for municipal government in the state. The borough clerk's office is the main point of contact for most local records and services. If you need to reach the borough about a public records request, land use question, or meeting schedule, the clerk is the place to start. The office keeps track of all borough ordinances, resolutions, meeting minutes, and contracts. Staff can walk you through the process if you call during business hours.

Because the borough is so remote, many services get handled by phone or email rather than in person. That makes this phone directory all the more useful for Aleutians East residents and anyone else who needs to reach local offices. The borough clerk coordinates public records requests in line with the Alaska Public Records Act. You can submit requests in writing and the clerk will guide you from there.

Office hours can shift due to the remote setting. Call ahead to confirm someone is in before you plan a visit.

Aleutians East Phone Numbers for Public Safety

The Alaska State Troopers run a post in Sand Point. This is the main law enforcement presence for the whole borough since there is no local police force. Troopers cover Sand Point, King Cove, False Pass, Nelson Lagoon, and Akutan. For emergencies, dial 911. For anything that is not an emergency, you can reach the Sand Point trooper post during business hours.

Getting a trooper to your location can take time. They often travel by plane or boat to reach the smaller communities, and weather can cause delays. The troopers work with village public safety officers where they are available, and also team up with federal agencies for things like fishing and maritime enforcement. If you need an arrest record or incident report from a trooper case in the area, those are kept by the Alaska Department of Public Safety. You can request them through the DPS public records process at their main office in Anchorage, phone (907) 269-5767.
