After firing Alaska Permanent Fund director, board chairman declines questions from legislators, denies political decisions influenced action
during the transition to a new formula for Permanent Fund dividends.
“I will unequivocally say that for me and all the other trustees that I’m aware of, that we still do believe these resolutions and support them,” he said.and an overdraw to the Sitka Chamber of Commerce, according to reporting by the local public radio station. “It often feels as if the board is being managed to the ’s agenda, as opposed to the ED trying to internalize and achieve the board’s agenda,” a board member wrote in 2018, before Dunleavy came into office.
It isn’t clear from the personnel file whether specific actions drove these and similar comments. No board member’s name is attached to them, and Rodell still received raises — her latest coming at the start of 2021.
