Dillingham is a small, remote community located in southwestern Alaska along the coast of Bristol Bay. It serves as the hub for the Bristol Bay region, providing essential services, transportation, and economic activity for the surrounding communities. Dillingham has a population of nearly 2,300 people and is known for strong ties to fishing, particularly the commercial salmon fishing industry, which plays a central role in the local economy. Dillingham is accessed primarily by air and water, as there are no roads connecting Dillingham to the rest of Alaska's highway system. The area surrounding Dillingham is known for its year-round natural beauty, with vast wilderness areas, rivers, and lakes offering abundant opportunities for outdoor activities. The city is also a gateway to Wood Tikchik State Park, one of the largest state parks in the United States.
The City of Dillingham is governed by a City Council of six-members who are elected at large to three-year terms. The City Manager is appointed by the City Council and is the administrative head for the City and, as such, supervises all other departments and employees either directly or indirectly. It is the manager's responsibility to carry out the policies and programs established by the City Council in a manner consistent with municipal ordinances. In addition to these and many other responsibilities, the City Manager submits to the City Council such plans, programs, reports and recommendations which will accomplish the purposes of good government. Dillingham provides a full range of municipal services, including Administration, City Clerk, City Council, Emergency Operations Center, Finance, Human Resources, Library, Planning, Port, Public Works, and Public Safety. The City employs 56 FTEs and operates on an FY 2024 budget of approximately $27,574,449.
The City Manager ensures that the policy direction set by the City Council is implemented and that the City’s delivery of public services is provided in an efficient and cost-effective manner. The City Manager’s duties include preparing a recommended budget for the Council; recruiting, hiring, and supervising staff; enforcement of ordinances; purchasing and contracting; supervision of fiscal operations; and providing complete, objective information to the City Council in support of its decision-making process.
