Streets Ownership

Municipality of Anchorage has a combination of owners and maintenance providers for streets. These maps will help explain who owns and who maintains the streets. The Service Area, Limited Road Service Area or Rural Road Service area will determine how each road is maintained.

 

The types of service areas defines what is provided: 

  • Limited Road Service Area (LRSA) has limited authority to provide basic road maintenance in the form of grading, dust control, brushing, culvert thawing and replacement, ditching, limited use of tax funds for authorized basic road maintenance services. LRSA’s do not have the ability to save tax funds for capital road projects. Most road service areas on the hillside are LRSA’s.
  • Rural Road Service Areas (RRSA) has authority to provide basic road maintenance, to make capital road improvements and to save for capital road projects.
  • Service Areas (SA) has authority to provide basic road maintenance, to make capital road improvements and to save for capital road projects. In addition, the SA may have other authority, such as fire protection and rescue, and parks and recreation.
