The resolution for site-selection criteria will have a public hearing and is expected to be voted on by the Anchorage Assembly on July 11.
passed by the AssemblyThe focus of the meeting was on site-selection criteria and what the committee wants to see in a new shelter. The committee looked at the criteria for the shelter site, with an emphasis on preferred and required characteristics.
“We’re really looking at site selection, of what criteria do we want to endorse and adopt as an Assembly to help us make this shelter decision because, in the end, we know we need more shelter in the municipality and so we want to develop criteria to help us make that decision,” said Anchorage Assembly member Felix Rivera.If it’s an existing building, the property must be in fair condition or better.
The property will have a minimum square footage requirement based on the shelter capacity. The Assembly is looking at shelter sizes that would house from 50 to 150 clients. The property would have to be zoned PLI or B3 or have written support from the Anchorage Heath Department director to be rezoned.
