Draft Hillside District Plan

The Planning Commission finished its work on the Draft Hillside District Plan, and its recommendation can be found in PZC Resolution No. 2009-047 . The Commission's recommendation is being forwarded to the Assembly for action. An Assembly worksession will be held prior to the public hearing. Confirmation of the dates for the worksession, introduction and public hearing are pending. Hearing dates are currently being proposed for February or March; when confirmed, the hearing date will be posted to the project website www.hillsidedistrictplan.com and email notifications will be sent out.

Bear Country

We who are involved in bear education efforts in Anchorage are hoping to increase the summer educational efforts to include a focus on better reaching those who recreate in bear country (runners, hikers, bikers, equestrians etc.). The basic message we want to get across is that people should still enjoy the outdoors but should understand the risks, strive to educate themselves about bears and how they should behave around them. We are hoping to pick a slogan to use throughout the campaign on a variety of educational materials, ideally something as effective as the "Kids Don't Float" used in boating safety messages. Please share with us your thoughts by taking the short 10 minute survey found at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=_2fg5o_2fX9uvNvGeJCd0TQMaQ_3d_3d

We hope you will share the survey with your network of friends and encourage them to provide their ideas and thoughts. THANK YOU for helping with bear education in Anchorage by responding to the survey!

YAHOO to YOU!

Congratulations to everyone who works and plays so hard for NSAA. The NSAA got a “Seymour Award” from Anchorage Convention and Visitors Bureau – the Community Organization Award. Diane Moxness from the NSAA office accepted the award on NSAA’s behalf at the ACVB annual awards banquet – about 800 tourist businesses were there. The NSAA received a big round of applause and lots of congratulations from the politicians in the house. Stop by the office and check out the award, it is a dancing moose statue. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE GIVEN SO MANY HOURS!
