The Borough adopts by reference all vehicle and traffic statutes and regulations of the State of Alaska, creating minor offenses, as that term is defined in Minor Offense Rule 2 of the Alaska Rules of Court, as they presently exist and as they may be revised in the future, as part of the traffic code for the Borough.
(Ord. 2026-03, 2/2/2026)
The Borough adopts as its traffic fine schedule for state offenses the "Traffic Bail Forfeiture Schedule" and the "Oversize Vehicle Bail Forfeiture Schedule" in Administrative Rules 43.1 and 43.6 of the Alaska Rules of Court and any other bail forfeiture schedules relating to vehicles adopted by the Alaska Supreme Court. In addition, the borough adopts all amendments of those schedules that become effective after the effective date of the ordinance codified in this section. Citations for offenses listed on these schedules may be disposed of as provided in AS 12.25.195 through 12.25.230, without a court appearance, upon payment of the amounts listed plus the state surcharge required by AS 12.55.039 and 29.25.074. If a person charged with one of these offenses appears in court and is found guilty, the penalty imposed for the offense may not exceed the amount listed for that offense on the schedule. Citations charging these offenses must meet the requirements of Minor Offense Rule 3 of the Alaska Rules of Court. If an offense is not listed on the fine schedule, the defendant must appear in court to answer the charges
