Law Enforcement Records for Farmers Loop
Alaska State Troopers are the primary law enforcement agency for Farmers Loop. Because Farmers Loop is unincorporated, AST handles most incidents rather than a city police department. Trooper records include incident reports, arrest data, and investigation files. These are separate from court records. You request them through the DPS JustFOIA portal at dpsalaska.justfoia.com/publicportal. The portal lets you submit a request, track its status, and download the response when it is ready.
The Fairbanks Police Department at alaskapolice.us also covers parts of the Farmers Loop area where it borders the city limits. FPD records requests go to 911 Cushman Street, Fairbanks, AK 99701 or by email to fpd@fairbanks.us.
If you are not sure which agency handled a specific incident, search CourtView first. The case file will show which law enforcement agency made the arrest, which tells you where to send the records request. For Trooper cases, JustFOIA is the route. For FPD cases, contact the department directly at (907) 450-6500.
Note: Alaska State Troopers maintain active warrant lists through the DPS warrants page at dps.alaska.gov/ast/warrants. The list is updated daily and includes names and offense categories for active warrants in the Fairbanks area.

The Alaska DPS Criminal Records and Identification Bureau keeps statewide criminal history records. Farmers Loop residents can access the Fairbanks regional DPS office for walk-in service.
