Yesterday Morning January 28, 2016. I saw this tax business do advertising the east side of Muldoon between the Carrs entrance and Northern Lights Blvd. They have displayed their advertising on a utility pole near the bus stop. This is a complete violation of municipal law. These poles belong to the utility company they are not billboards for people to advertise their personal stuff. If a lineman has to climb a pole to restore service. By having to remove these extra stuff that is against the law will cause a delayed response in restoring service. They also have a poster attached to a state sign advertising their tax service. The sign is located at says Northern Lights Boulevard. It is below the sign. Please do not patronize this business. We can not have a professional tax service who has a disregard for the local and state laws and wants to do free advertising. Hopefully the municipality and the state will be giving this business an expensive lesson in advertising by issuing them a fine or a ticket. Illegal advertising does not pay.
After talking to the manager Lila she told me a local district office of H&R Block makes the decision where to advertise and where to hang them up. Apparently forgot to look up the local laws of Anchorage, Alaska before hanging up advertisements. I showed the places where they were hanged mentioned that one is owned by the State of Alaska and the other is a utility pole owned by the electric company. They have remove the post on the State directional sign still have it on the telephone pole.
Hey Anchorage developers want a tax break to develop your properties then fix them up for first and stop making them look like an eye soar. Once your property has met the expectations then come to the Anchorage Assembly or the taxpayers see if you get a break. Not get a tax break first. That is like going somewhere paying for the service first then finding out the workmanship is crap. Do the work first then seek payment from the taxpayer.
Voters of Kittitas County voted to create a county wide parks and recreation district for the purpose of managing the county's parks in 2004 by ballot initative was fully established in 2005. This was created for the purpose to allow more citizen involvement of managing county parks with the boundary of Kittitas County. These parks are not in any incorporated city boundaries only within the incorporated areas of Kittitas County. This also has made it easier for the board of commissioner to be able to concentrate on other areas of county operations such as county public works. If the recommendation due to lack of voter confidence due to not being able to approve any voter approved levies. Elected commissioners are required to meet to discuss this matter may only dissolve if the voters of Kittitas County approve it by over 50 percent. If this is the direction the voters want to go then the management of the county parks go right back to the commissioner plate in accordance to the Revised Code of Washington. Let's pray whatever decision this parks and recreation district takes will be in the best interest of Kittitas County. Remember only the voters can do this not a board.
Earlier this month while on my business trip slash vacation. I visited Oldtown Portland where I saw 25 homeless people sleeping in doorway really close to a joke city agency called the Portland Development Commission. Ethan really wants to turn Anchorage into another Portland or Seattle. He is tired having to take a three to four hour flight to find crazy. His plan for Fairview is empty shops and making it the place where homeless can come to Anchorage sleep in the streets and call it home. His homeless coordinator is a joke.
In response to Chris Constant's piece in the Alaska Dispatch News about the pedestrian safety. Here is the truth about all of these accidents. Every one was the fault of the pedestrian since they were intoxicated had no sense of where they were walking on most cases. Drivers had very little reaction time. I really want to respond to the first death Phillip Chowok, Jr who was 41 who I went to high school with at Kodiak High School in the late 1980's and I have been a friend to him since then was evicted from the Black Angus Inn and had ran into traffic was a hit by a very experienced driver Shrepend Arapi which I was his dispatcher at Alaska Yellow Cab. He was driving tow truck he did not have time to react. The light at 15th and Gambell is not the problem plus neither is the light at 13th and Gambell. The real problem is the fact we have an Oaken Keg at 13th and Gambell at the smallest Carrs Grocery Store. If we have Carrs close the liquor store there you would solve most of this problem. His solution for Fairview is have them sleep in the doorway while the homeless coordinator throws them a roll of toilet paper. Chris and Fairview Community Council want something done go to the 8th floor bow down in front of Darth Berkowitz your mayor say your excellency can we have safe streets please.
Congratulations to the Patriots and Broncos advancing to the Title Game.
This game is the first game on Sunday at 1:05pm at Mile High Stadium in Denver, Colorado. This is a repeat of the 2013 AFC Title Game. There is also a rivalry between Tom Brady vs Peyton Manning. Peyton has been at the losing end of most of the match ups starting in 2001 when he was a quarterback with the Colts.
My prediction since Mile High Stadium is very hard for opponents to win. I am going to predict the Denver Broncos will win against the New England Patriots will advance to Super Bowl 50 in Santa Clara.
Cle Elum needs to have a place where people can enjoy community plays. Robert Michael Nevills the visionary behind this place before he passed away in December 2013. He visioned this place as a place where people would enjoy local performances. Currently the Upper Kittitas County arts have been using a venue in Roslyn where is the same place. Mr Nevills would take his drama class from time to time to rehearse performances. We need to convince the landlords the City of Cle Elum and Cle Elum taxpayers to help fund a venture to pay to help restore this theatre back to the days when it opened in 1923. I am sure the Farm and Home across the street could donate or give a discount to the group the paint and hardware needed to make this happen. This place could once again make welcome a community become the center of the community once again like it was in 1923. This 93 year old building can have life put back in it.
Allowing transgender children in the opposite sex bathroom has lead to increase sexual assault in bathrooms. Many of us conservative warned lawmakers that these laws would increase sexual violence in bathrooms. You did not listen. You read Title 9 wrong which allowed transgender students to use the bathroom they identify with. Males who have male genitals must use the males bathroom same with females. Between 3rd grade and seniors there is this thing called puberty. If a genetic girl who identifies as a boy walks into a boy's bathroom. First of all most boys who do a number 1 stand up. A genetic boy can do that transgender boy can not. Then there is the chest issue. Usually after the age of age of nine genetic girls usually start to have two friends in front of them. Boys get attracted to that. Since laws prohibit cameras in bathrooms perfect place for a unreported rape to occur. Because it is a he said she said or vice versa. Boys will grab those things be cruel in that manner. Liberal response is child will not notice. Yes they will. That is why if you are born of that sex you use that bathroom period. God designed bodies not human scientist. Please end this idea you can use the bathroom you identify with that gender you use that bathroom. Boys use boys bathrooms and girls use girls bathroom. End of discussion. The pictures are first one is a genetic girl around the age of nine or ten. The second one is Nicole Maines a transgender female who is and will always be a boy. She will never bear children or have that monthly reminder like genetic girls. She has decided to not to listen to her male body which she will always have regardless. If they find her in skeleton like state she will be identified as male not female. She has no uterus, no vagina and ovaries. Please tell all transgender people you will use the bathroom you are assigned at birth that is what god made you.
