In the first round of votes counted in Tuesday’s Anchorage municipal elections, all bond proposals appear likely to pass, along with all but one ballot measure put before voters.
Proposition 1, a $37,787,000 bond for capital projects at Anchorage School District facilities, had a 10-point lead in “yes” votes. The bond package is focused on funding school security upgrades and roof replacements. Other ballot measures unrelated to bonds, including several technical changes to the city’s charter, also appear likely to pass.• Proposition 6, which would create a new service area to finance upgrades to infrastructure around popular Chugach State Park access points, has a 60% approval rate, with less than 40% of voters opposed.
So what I take from this is Higher property taxes for home owners & increase in rent for renters & business owners. Sad
Unbelievable
Great way to tank the town. At least I tried a bit before leaving the state. I'll miss this state but women have more pull than pop culture implies.
Proposition 13, which would change how the city holds special elections if an Anchorage Assembly member or mayor leaves office before their term ends, is currently failing 52% to 48% in preliminary election night results.
