On September 16th, we had a meeting with invited state legislators, community council presidents for Russian Jack and North East, the Mayor’s office, and others. Parks and Recreation Staff, Anchorage Park Foundation Staff, and Corvus Design and Brooks & Associates were present to provide an update on the public outreach process to date. A summary document was provided to them (available via our related files link).
A brief summary of the discussion was that the legislators who had secured the appropriation upon which this project is based supported the work to date, felt comfortable with the type and level of outreach, and wished to see the process move forward. This was echoed by others within the room, with the exception that the President of North East Community Council relayed the concerns of some of his constituents, and did not take a stance other than to relay these concerns (regarding a desire to have a Master Plan completed prior to any new work in the park). He also notified us that the community council had a resolution on its agenda for their meeting that evening that would demand a that a Master Plan be completed first.
