Whether or not Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson will implement the Assembly's winter homeless sheltering plan, approved last night on a 9-1 vote, is still up in the air.

The plan approved by the Assembly Monday night would put more than $2.4 million toward sheltering at the Sullivan, as well as extending services at Brother Francis Shelter, Bean’s Café and Covenant House. It also provides 85 housing units at the former Golden Lion hotel. The Assembly approved the plan in a 9-1 vote with Eagle River member Jamie Allard opposed.

“If we can focus on the larger picture, on housing supports, on mental health, on substance misuse treatments, we will be able to form a path out of this permanent emergency state,” Rivera said. “There’s a lot to go through here,” Bronson responded. “This is a complex plan. We have a lot of work to do and analysis with legal. So to your specific question, I simply can’t answer it in good faith tonight, thank you.”
