Sierra Club supports eco terrorist in charge of Bureau of Land Management

 

It is interesting that an extreme environmental organization would support a nominee who believes in destroying the environment to make her point in protecting the environment.  I hope the US Senate is smarter than that will reject this nomination.  Please call your US Senator and reject this nominee.

It is time to sell Point Roberts to Canada


 It is time to correct a geographic mistake and sell Point Roberts to Canada.  This will also save Whatcom County some extra money since 2001 they had to buy a ferry to run it from Bellingham to Point Roberts because you can not go there directly without going through Canada.  Please contact congressman Rick Larsen to make this proposal. 

Rank choice voting needs to be declared unconstitutional


 Rank choice voting needs to be declared unconstitutional here is why it denies you a direct vote.  It also takes longer to tally the votes of the race.  Remember you can only run the votes through the machine one time.  You have to hand count and mark the ballots to put in the piles to make sure the vote is counted correctly.  Remember this idea has been repealed everywhere it has been tried.  In Alaska rank choice voting only happens in the general in the primary it is the top four that advance regardless of party.  Let's hope the judge rules this idea unconstitutional. 

Bronson decides to save the Samantha Koening Memorial from moving


When Mayor Dave Bronson choose not to purchase the Alaska Club he was listening to the community by saying we should not move a memorial dedicated to Samantha Koening.  She stopped a serial killer and prevented future victims.  This is why this property should not be purchased.  Let's put this property to rest and not ever buy it again. 

 

Amy Demboski confirmed as Anchorage Municipal Manager

Tuesday, July 13th, the Anchorage Assembly confirmed Amy Demboski as municipal manager.  This will help Dave Bronson streamline city hall.  Amy proposed streamlining city department during her unsuccessful campaign for mayor in 2015.

Majority of the Anchorage Assembly wants the homeless to freeze to death

 

 

                    Anchorage Assembly's solution

 

Here is Anchorage Assembly's solution to homeless let them freeze.  Anchorage Mayor's solution of a navigation center is a bad one.  There is still one idea left that is called the compromise I wrote yesterday here is the link to that http://swensonfamilymember.blogspot.com/2021/07/here-is-compromise-to-bronson.html

 

Mayor Dave Bronson has a solution you guys are stuck on what Anchorage does not want which is moving the Samantha Koening Memorial which where the former Alaska Club Midtown is located.  Time to do the compromise idea now.

Here is a compromise to the Bronson centralized shelter idea

 

Let's pretend members of the Anchorage Assembly have a brain cell they know how to use.  

With the exemption of Assembly District 1 where they are too many shelters and services have reached capacity in that district.  

 

Let's lower the capacity of the Centralized Anchorage Homeless Shelter turn it in more of a processing center where you were then ship them to other parts of town.  Municipality of Anchorage and Anchorage School District have property they are not using for any use what so ever.  

 

District 2 small shelter location would be located at Bartlett High School.  Require a vote of the Chugiak and Eagle River neighborhood before you put a small shelter in that region.  

 

District 3 location could be located at Lyn Ary Park and the Romig and West High School complex for a small shelter.  

 

Since the main processing center will be located in Assembly District 4 at Tudor and Elmore.  With some agreement with the University of Alaska Anchorage you could build a structure at Goose Lake Park and put some at Campbell Park in the south end.  

 

Assembly District 5 where I live you could put couple of small shelters at Arnold Muldoon Park, there is some land by Totem Theater close to where I live that would also work as long as there is a fence to the east end of this property.  You could also put some at Cheney Lake Park and some undeveloped land at Russian Jack Park. 

 

District 6 would be like District 2 where you would need a vote of Girdwood citizens before you put a shelter there.  Places where can put a shelter would be Johns Park, Undeveloped places in Ruth Arcand Park and Homestead Park.  

 

This is idea of a compromise to accept the main shelter idea by proposing small shelters all over Anchorage.  

Here is the presentations of the Anchorage Centralized Shelter

The actual property of the proposed Anchorage homeless shelter
This is what the Anchorage Centralized Shelter at Tudor and Elmore will look like 

 Here are the links to the presentation the Bronson administration has done on the shelter.

 Here are the links look and decide for yourself if this is good idea or not. 

Bronson homeless shelter is an idea that better solution for Anchorage

 

Bronson mass shelter idea is better solution for Anchorage.  In the pass 6 year ago the Berkowitz administration the shelter idea is laying on the ground, inside a bus shelter or in a porta potty in a local park.
 
This is solution of the Anchorage Assembly
                               Sleep on the ground
                                Sleep in the park 

 
                            Sleep in a bus shelter
 
                        Sleep in a porta potty
 
What the Anchorage Assembly thanks of the Bronson centralized shelter idea.
 
 
The Bronson idea of a mass shelter brings services together with housing and employment options.  The cost of 15 million is hard bargain to sell.  Truth is the cost of buying the Old Alaska club location instead of developing would had cost more than 15 million dollars.  We could also have neighborhood shelters along with this a central hub which is what this is.  Here is a link to the Bronson shelter plan
 
Recently the University area community Council voted 25-1 against having this proposal in their back yard.  
 
It is time for the community to support a solution instead of talking about it which is what the Anchorage Assembly and Former Mayor Ethan Berkowitz have done about this problem.

Bill Wielechowski refuses to vote when the Permanent Fund Dividend comes up in the State Senate


 Bill Wielechowski decided to be a coward when voting of the budget came out instead of voting no.  When his friend Lyman Hoffman decided to vote yes instead of voting for an item he decided to leave the room instead voting his conscience.  Russian Jack, NE Anchorage and JBER you need to vote him out in the next election cycle. 
Yes Bill Wielechowski does the chicken dance when he votes on issues of his district.

Ivy and Bill believe that Permanent Fund Dividend should be in the Alaska State Constitution


 

Yes both Ivy Sponholz and Bill Wielechowski believe that the annual Permanent Fund Dividend should be in the Alaska State Constitution.  They do not believe you should get the amount you are entitled to.  Bill leaves before the vote and refuses to vote on the issue and Ivy votes to cut it every year.  Just remember that it is only the common sense lawmakers that are defending your PFD that is Alaska House Republicans.

Ivy blames Alaska House Republicans for why Alaskans will get no PFD this year


 Ivy Sponholz in our conversation at Saturday Market a week ago in Muldoon Town Square Park instead of blame her own caucus and people of her political party she told me that the Alaska House Republicans are why Alaskans will not get a PFD this year.  This is similar to her friend Bill Wielechowski blaming the oil companies for not agree to pay a higher tax so Alaskans can get a statutory PFD instead of blaming his legislative body.  It is time for people to take responsibility for their actions. 

Ivy wants to tax her citizens $3k this year

 

Ivy Sponholz told me a week ago at Saturday Market at Muldoon Town Square Park that the state can not afford to pay each every Alaskan $3687 this year which is what is owed this year.  She says that she fought for a PFD of $1100 but the House Republicans are the ones that reduced it to $525 by the way I will get to that in another article.  She like Coward Bill Wielechowski favor the statutory PFD be put in the Alaska State Constitution.  This will hogtie them from taxing them.  Remember both of these individuals think you should pay a state income tax.  When Russian Jack families are struggling to make ends meet they can thank their state representative for refusing to fund their PFD the amount they are suppose to get.  Something tells me they should had voted in former Assemblyman Paul Bauer to represent them. 
What Poison Ivy is giving you this year in Russian Jack.

Photo ID should be required to vote in person or for an absentee ballot application

Photo ID should be required to vote in person or requesting a ballot.  The reason to validate that the person is the one requesting the ballot and ensure the fairness in elections.  It is interesting that the Democrats think you are preventing people of minorities from voting that is not true.  Do you not need ID to get welfare benefits, open a bank account, get on an airplane, to buy liquor and get a pack of cigarettes.  Voting is just sacred and your identity.  Most places will accept a photo copy of an ID instead an actual ID for a voting application.  Here is another awesome fact most Americans support it.  Plus the Supreme Court recently said this these laws are legal.  Please require ID to kept your vote sacred.
