City officials ponder impacts of five percent state budget cuts

While the City of Valdez’s 50 plus million dollar a year revenue will not be threatened unless SB57 moves along, cuts to the State budget and their impacts could be felt in Valdez. Most notably, Dan O’Connor of Prince William Sound College is unsure at this point of the ramifications the cuts to the University of Alaska will have on PWSC. O’Connor said, “It’s a very serious threat at this point”. O’Connor said that on Monday all employees will receive a furlough notice. “There is a lot of uncertainty”. PWSC has approximately 40 full and part-time employees.
