State demographic estimates released July 1 show Kodiak Island Borough shed nearly 1,000 residents to outmigration over five years, with young children declining sharply and residents in their 70s surging by 200. Mayor Griffin called the shifts significant planning signals as the borough prepares to launch a long-delayed strategic planning process.

The Kodiak Island Borough Assembly voted 6-0 Thursday to award a janitorial services contract to J&R Cleaning Service, a company connected to a borough employee, after the borough manager denied a formal protest from the losing bidder and the assembly debated whether the procurement process was sound.
