About Cordova public records

Cordova is in the Chugach Census Area, Alaska. A census area has no government of its own, so state agencies keep most public records; an incorporated city keeps its own city records. Court cases are filed with the Alaska Court System (Cordova Trial Courts, Valdez Trial Courts). Deeds are recorded by the state Recorder's Office in the Valdez, Cordova and Chitina recording districts. Elections are run by the Region I Elections Office, Juneau (Cordova, Tatitlek, Chenega); Region V Elections Office, Wasilla (Valdez); Region II Elections Office, Anchorage (Whittier).
