The Trust is overseen by a seven-member board of trustees. Under Alaska statute, trustees are appointed by the governor and must be confirmed by the Legislature. The appointments are for five-year staggered terms. When a trustee's term expires the individual continues to serve until re-appointed and reconfirmed by the Legislature or until a new trustee is appointed and confirmed. The board must meet at least four times each fiscal year.
Board Members:
- Mary Jane Michael, Chair
- Chris Cooke, Vice-Chair
- Laraine Derr, Secretary / Treasurer
- Paula Easley
- Greg Jones
- Jerome Selby
- Carlton Smith
Public Comment
Trust bylaws call for a public comment period during all regular meetings of the full board of trustees to allow individuals to inform and advise the board about issues, problems or concerns. See our public comment guidelines for details and how to participate. To help the public comment period be more efficient and effective, please participate via the webinar links below.
