So it is written, so it shall be. Breakup is here! Yes, things in Anchorage are finally starting to heat up. The last day to mail in or drop off municipal election ballots is Tuesday. And, while there’s still a couple feet of snow in my backyard, I’m at that stage where the sun feels warm enough to leave my coat at home and my cul-de-sac is turning into a small ocean.

Anchorage Assembly turns down another push to end citywide emergency declaration
Print article The Anchorage Assembly on Tuesday rejected another push from two members to rescind the city’s emergency proclamation in an 8-2 vote. The current proclamation is in effect until mid-April. The motion to end the proclamation was proposed by Assembly member Jamie Allard, who represents Eagle River and Chugiak. Allard issued a memorandum to the Assembly in support of ending the proclamation. “It is time to end the Mayor’s Emergency Declaration, restore the regular system of government, promote individual responsibility to follow health and safety recommendations, and get back to normal,” Allard wrote in the memorandum.

Print article Alaska marijuana regulators are considering loosening restrictions on edible marijuana products in the state. The regulation change would double the amount of THC, the plant’s psychoactive compound, allowed in a single serving.

Alaska’s limit on edibles is currently the strictest compared with other states where recreational marijuana is legal, and some states allow much higher doses.
Anchorage Assembly rejects action over Nazi plate comments
February 11, 2021 GMT
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) The Anchorage Assembly has voted to indefinitely postpone a resolution against one of its own members who was criticized for online comments about vehicle license plates that appeared to glorify Nazis.
The assembly voted unanimously Tuesday against the measure that would have publicly acknowledged Jamie Allard’s behavior as actions breaching the public trust, the Anchorage Daily News reported.
Allard drew public criticism for social media comments she made in late January as photos of state-issued vanity plates reading “FUHRER” and “3REICH” circulated online.
