In a year with high oil prices boosting state revenues, Sitka’s legislators say a major challenge this session will be holding back on spending. “It will be a Katie-bar-the-door year,” said Sen. Bert Stedman, who sits on the Senate Finance Committee. “The Legislature needs to keep in mind the prices can go down just as fast as they go up.”
