The Anchorage Assembly met this evening to decide which of the previously-reviewed bonds and ballot measures will make it to April's ballots.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - In a special meeting held Monday evening, the Anchorage Assembly unanimously approved nearly a dozenEight of the bonds and ballot measures passed unanimously and with little to no comment from the public, who will have ample time to review the measures and bonds ahead of the April 4 municipal elections.
Also on the ballot will be a proposition to increase the “existing powers to provide services in support of policies that promote local housing and economic stability” in Girdwood — effectively granting residents the authority to develop a body of their own to address the unique housing challenges of the municipality’s resort town.Land Use Supervisor and Girdwood Board of Supervisors Co-Chair Mike Edgington says the move will help residents of Girdwood help themselves.
Another decision voters will make soon could be to amend the Municipal Charter to alter who manages the city’s money. Approval of this proposition would change management of the municipality’s trust fund from the municipal treasurer to a separate board created solely for the supervision of the fund. The move would help to protect the individuals overseeing the financial interests of Anchorage, as well as the municipality itself.
“The issue isn’t the payment or the requirement, it’s whether it deserves a bond,” Edgington said. “We never requested a bond and we don’t want one.”
