Mayor Siikauraq's Message

Paglagipsi! Welcome to The Northwest Arctic Borough

This is the default caption.

I am excited and honored to be serving an additional three year term as your Mayor for the Northwest Arctic Borough. The Borough's administration, staff and Assembly are working diligently to serve the people of our region. Despite the current economic, social, cultural and educational challenges we face, the people of our region have always come together in time of need. Our ancestors taught us that we must work together to survive. Our ancestors taught us how to adapt in a changing world. While we adapt to changes on a daily basis, the foundation of Inupiat Ilitqusiat remains strong as decisions are made.

It is my hope that each one of us does our part in making our communities a better place to live, work and play. By staying involved with family, our schools and communities, together we can achieve anything. Every single one of us has a voice and we each have many talents to share. Let’s focus on our strengths and work on improving areas in need. Where one person lacks expertise, another will fill in the gap. Together we can complement each other to strengthen our region.

In addition to the priorities that carry over from my first term as Mayor, my staff and I will continue to work to ensure that we are all working to improve the quality of life for all our residents, which is the mission of the Borough. In effort to help all of us stay focused on that mission, we have implemented a strategic plan and the strategic objectives contained within our that Plan are categorized into sections as follows:

1) caring for our people,
2) caring for our communities,
3) caring for environment, and
4) caring for our organization.

These categories will ensure that the Borough is sustainable into the future. We will all work together to make sure that the tasks within the strategic vision are carried out to improve the life of all residents.

Our door is always open and we hope that you stop by to give us your feedback and input!

Arigaa Taikuu,

Siikauraq Whiting
