AS 29.65.060. School and Mental Health Land.
- (a) If an entitlement determined under AS 29.65.010
or 29.65.020 results in a per capita entitlement for
the municipality of less than one and one-half acre, the municipality may select vacant school or mental health land in
the municipality in partial fulfillment of its land entitlement under this chapter. School or mental health land may
be selected notwithstanding the fact that this land is not unappropriated and unreserved within the meaning of this
chapter and under former AS 29.18.190
and 29.18.200, but each selection of school or mental health land by a municipality must be vacant, unappropriated, or
unreserved land as defined in this chapter, except that it need not be general grant land.
- (b) The acreage of school, university, or mental health land, if any, in a municipality may not be included in the
determination of entitlement under AS 29.65.010
or 29.65.020.
- (c) Land conveyed under this section shall be credited against a municipality's remaining land entitlement under this
chapter.
- (d) Within six months after approval of a municipal selection of school or mental health land, the director shall identify
state general grant land of approximately equal value to the land requested by the municipality and shall propose the
replacement land for the concurrence of the appropriate board. If a proposal by the director is rejected by the board,
the director shall meet with the board as often as necessary to determine the type and amount of equal value
replacement land that would be required to obtain the board's concurrence, and shall propose the replacement land for
consideration by the board. The replacement land shall thereafter be managed for the purposes for which the land
selected by the municipality was acquired by the Territory and State of Alaska.
- (e) The notice provisions of AS 38.05.945
apply to the designation of other general grant land as school, university, or mental health land in replacement of
land selected under this section. The provisions of AS 38.50 do
not apply to designations under this section.
- (f) For purposes of determining the per capita entitlement under (a) of this section, the population of a municipality
shall be the population determined by the former commissioner of community and regional affairs under former AS 43.18.010
for the program year beginning July 1, 1978, for a municipality whose entitlement was determined under former AS
29.18.201
or 29.18.202.
- (g) Notwithstanding (a) of this section, a municipality may not select school land or mental health land after October 4,
1985. Nothing in this section affects the legal rights of any person with regard to selections of school land or mental
health land made by a municipality on or before October 4, 1985.
- (h) To obtain replacement land for mental health land that was conveyed by the state to the municipality under former AS
29.18.190
- 29.18.200, former AS 29.18.201
- 29.18.202, or under this chapter, a municipality may reconvey to the state land that had been conveyed by the state
to the municipality. When a municipality reconveys land to the state under this subsection, the municipality has the
right to select an equal number of acres of replacement land. The municipality may exercise its right to select
replacement land under this subsection only within two years of the date of the reconveyance of land to the state.
