Tribal Area Description
Minto is a Alaska Native Village in Alaska with ANVSA lands. The land base is relevant for broadband planning due to rural service coverage and middle-mile access constraints.
The Tribe has over 500 enrolled members and is governed by an elected five-member Minto Village Council, that includes the First and Second Chiefs. The federally recognized Native Village of Minto is located on the Tolovana River, off the Elliott Highway, about 138 road miles Northwest of Fairbanks, in Alaska’s Interior. Minto is one of 34 villages within the Doyon region. Originally located downriver from Nenana, Alaska on the Tanana River, the Village elected to move to its present location in 1971 due to continued seasonal flooding, The Village population fluctuates between 125 to 200 people. When Congress passed the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) in 1971, it provided for each Native Village to form an ANCSA Corporation, and the ANCSA Corporation was given settlement lands.
