Juneau Voters Decide Big Bonds and Taxes | Anchorage News

Published 1 week, 4 days ago
Description

Juneau’s Assembly is gearing up for a major vote this fall, with two big bond proposals on the table: $16 million for school upgrades and $9.4 million for the wastewater plant — totaling over $25 million in new debt. Voters also face a decision on renewing a 3% sales tax that funds critical services like police, fire, and streets, currently set to expire. Plus, there’s a push to tweak sales tax exemptions and a housing initiative seeking to lease 8 acres for low-income housing. The by-mail election is October 6 — and if you want to weigh in, testify at the Assembly meeting on Monday night (6 p.m., City Hall) — online options require advance notice by 4 p.m.
