The Ketchikan City Council on Thursday at its regular meeting is set to decide whether to approve an increase of the city’s property mill rate from 6.6 mills to 6.7 mills in addition to considering approval of an emergency ordinance extension and an amended emergency ordinance.

Though the people being recognized on Monday died all over the world, he said, “the location is unimportant. It is the hearts of these men and women that truly matter. It is this devotion within that has led them to sacrifice their lives for the country that we all love.” ....
