AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	70	1,562.568	1,589.872	Yeah, because the hatchery is just right up above that dam up there. If you've never been to the hatchery, they give tours up there. It is absolutely beautiful. And they've got a really nice picnic area. It's a great place to go, like, take your lunch, grab your lunch from a food truck, run down there. It's a nice grassed area, picnics. The creek runs through. And then you can also sometimes see the kings coming up. They're a little weird that they've got there. So it's really nice. But, no, I understand. When I saw it, I was really sad and disappointed because you can get some nice salmon otherwise other than the kings in there. But –	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	71	1,589.872	1,616.493	You've got to protect the broodstock. So it's one of those, if their escapement numbers are that low, then, yeah, they need to do it. They really do. I thought you were going to go with the flooding down in the States is what I thought you were going to go with. Nope, nope. I was trying to keep it Alaska-centric. Anytime we talk about fish or waters, I mean, not anytime, but I wanted to keep it Alaska-centric because I know the Ship Creek fishing is very popular. Yep, yep.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	72	1,616.493	1,643.029	And when I say the water or the rain is nice, the hot, sunny days are great, except for the like I said, A, it heats the creeks up, which isn't good for the fish habitat or the eggs that they're laying down. B, it drops the water levels. You don't have a lot of water. It makes it harder for them to come up. And they're also more nervous and they shoot through all the holes way faster because that low water, they feel exposed, you know, so they don't have that that murky water in there. And, you know, like Fish Creek and stuff like that.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	73	1,643.029	1,671.032	It's really important to have a lot of water flooding through those creeks and rivers. Well, I don't see real rain in the forecast for the next week. So we'll see if we get some. I mean, we might get a sprinkle here and there. That means lake fishing time, people. That means lake fishing. Yep, yep, yep. Well, there has been some big changes for zoning in the municipality of Anchorage this week at their assembly meeting. They passed basically inside...	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	74	1,671.032	1,697.363	Anchorage proper, so we're not including Chugiak, Eagle River, or Girdwood. So in the municipality outside of Chugiak, Eagle River, and Girdwood, there is no more single-family zoning in Anchorage. Suzanne Downing has the story up. It says, after public testimony on Tuesday that went both ways, the Anchorage Assembly voted to take apart the single-family zoning in Anchorage neighborhoods. The change to Title 21, that's our land use codes in Anchorage.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	75	1,697.551	1,715.64	makes all single-family zones subject to duplexes. It exempts, of course, Eagle River, Chugiak, and Girdwood, as I said. But for all other areas in the municipality of Anchorage, the zoning can effectively double in residential areas because now you can go from single-family dwellings to duplexes.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	76	1,715.947	1,729.77	So the vote was split 7-5. Voting in favor was Anna Brawley, Daniel Volan, Chris Constant, Meg Zolotel, Felix Rivera, Cameron Branga, and Cameron Perez-Verdia. So in other words, the squad.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	77	1,730.384	1,759.019	There you go. That's the Anchorage squad. It really is. Every time I hear that little, well, that's what they remind me of. Look, George Martinez voted against it. He voted against it. That surprised me. That actually surprised me. Yeah, but Mark Littlefield, George Martinez, Scott Myers, Zach Johnson, and Randy Soltz all voted no. So it was a split vote, 7-5. It was close. But at the end of the day, Anchorage zoning is going to change for established neighborhoods.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	78	1,759.019	1,788.046	may not make that big of an issue. But for those that have vacant lots or lots big enough where they could put a second dwelling on them, now potentially. So it'll be interesting to see how that's going to change the municipality of Anchorage. Well, you've got to also conjecture into this that they just changed the parking rules. Oh, I've been harping about this. They can now build...	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_00	79	1,788.046	1,805.06	That rule doesn't just say duplexes, doesn't it? It doesn't allow triplexes and fourplexes also. I thought it was multifamily. The way I was reading it, it looked like it was going to allow multifamily so that you could throw a fourplex up somewhere. But it's without the parking rules now.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:00:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	0	0.009	20.555	um but it's it's without the parking rules now we're gonna have some major problems like i said in some of these neighborhoods and also it's gonna cause a lot of these smaller like i said the established neighborhoods um some of those are gonna have if people do start throwing duplexes in them because i'm not actually it doesn't say four plexes in here i'd have no specifically say duplexes	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	1	20.555	49.906	Yeah, I'd have to pull it up and look because I don't have the actual AO in front of me. I thought the amended one had something about it being the other ones. In her article, the amendment talks about R10 zoning. So R10 is usually steep alpine. Right. So it talks about anybody in an R10 area, it's subject to administrative site plan review. And so R10 is just a type of zoning and it typically is like steep alpine.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	2	49.906	71.101	Does that make sense? You might be right, Daryl. Like Basher Drive and stuff. Yeah, you might be right. I just don't have the AO in front of me to tell me if there's triplexes and duplexes. But in Suzanne's article, she just says duplexes. Okay. And so, like I said, in mine, this is something I was remembering when I was kind of glancing at it also. There's high probability that I'm wrong on that.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	3	71.101	86.783	You might be thinking about the last one. The last one they had was basically a free-for-all. Maybe that's what it was. But what I was going to say is that the streets, a lot of these established neighborhoods, the old streets, they're very tiny. And you start adding more population on them.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	4	86.783	115.247	Well, look, and to your point, and I made this point before, when they were going to the free-for-all last time and they had an AO that basically would wipe out multiple zoning districts and they were going to narrow it down to basically just a couple and that was it. Right before that, they just passed an ordinance to basically, you know, wipe out all the parking requirements. So you wipe out parking requirements and increase density. I mean, there's only two things that can happen.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	5	115.555	132.944	One is they're going to spend exponentially more on snow hauling. It's going to take longer to clear the streets, and they're going to have to haul it all, which is going to just drive up the cost and the time. Or a more likely scenario is they will increase their snow hauling budget. However,	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	6	133.746	162.534	However, it's gonna become a hot mess. Because look, we live in Alaska, and in February, especially if everybody's parking on the street and the density is increasing, because now you don't require onsite parking. It's just like the perfect storm. That's exactly where I was going with it, literally, because without requiring the builders to put a parking in an area for parking, now you've got on-street parking, and that completely blows the snow plowing routine.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	7	162.534	188.404	Because you'll always have that one there, and then you've got the curve. Yeah, it's not going to be there. Yeah, you're exactly right. So we'll see how this works out. Again, you know, in some neighborhoods that are already established, that already have houses on them, is it going to make much of a difference? Probably not, simply because they're already established and developed, right? You know what I see happening to some of those neighborhoods, though, especially like the really old neighborhoods, the neighborhoods from the 40s, the 50s, the 60s? ADUs, ADUs.

Right off of DeBar and Boniface, there's that whole – Nunaka Valley, that's what I'm thinking of. Nunaka Valley. Yeah, they have some cute houses down there. But just think, if you could knock out that tiny house, which is a single family, and put in a duplex, you've doubled your profit. Yeah. And now, oh, wait.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	9	214.514	242.159	we can go keep knocking out all these tiny little homes and doubling our profit. Yeah, good point, good point. Well, we'll see. You know, the Anchorage Assembly thinks this is going to be their secret sauce to solving the housing shortage in the municipality of Anchorage. I kind of doubt it, but we'll see. We'll see what happens. All right, we're going to go ahead and take a quick break. If you'd like to call in and be part of the show, 522-0650. This is NewsRadio 650, KENI, Anchorage.

You ask them basic questions, kind of get a feel for the candidate.	KENI	2024-06-27T10:30:00	AK	UNKNOWN
AK_KENI_2024_06_27_10_30	26	637.654	662.363	And, of course, you ask them policy questions, kind of figure out what is driving them. What are the most important things to this candidate that's driving them to run for office? Because then it'll give you an idea of what they're going to be most passionately going after when they're in office or what they're going to passionately defend while they're in office, i.e., the Second Amendment, i.e., freedom of speech, lower taxes.

And you look at their campaigns. But you also go a step further and say, okay, who have they donated to? Because that gives you an idea of kind of their flavor. What is their preference?

And when I say the water or the rain is nice, the hot, sunny days are great, except for the like I said, A, it heats the creeks up, which isn't good for the fish habitat or the eggs that they're laying down. B, it drops the water levels. You don't have a lot of water. It makes it harder for them to come up. And they're also more nervous and they shoot through all the holes way faster because that low water, they feel exposed, you know, so they don't have that that murky water in there.

Anchorage proper, so we're not including Chugiak, Eagle River, or Girdwood. So in the municipality outside of Chugiak, Eagle River, and Girdwood, there is no more single-family zoning in Anchorage. Suzanne Downing has the story up. It says, after public testimony on Tuesday that went both ways, the Anchorage Assembly voted to take apart the single-family zoning in Anchorage neighborhoods. The change to Title 21, that's our land use codes in Anchorage.

makes all single-family zones subject to duplexes. It exempts, of course, Eagle River, Chugiak, and Girdwood, as I said. But for all other areas in the municipality of Anchorage, the zoning can effectively double in residential areas because now you can go from single-family dwellings to duplexes.

That rule doesn't just say duplexes, doesn't it? It doesn't allow triplexes and fourplexes also. I thought it was multifamily. The way I was reading it, it looked like it was going to allow multifamily so that you could throw a fourplex up somewhere. But it's without the parking rules now.

Yeah, I'd have to pull it up and look because I don't have the actual AO in front of me. I thought the amended one had something about it being the other ones. In her article, the amendment talks about R10 zoning. So R10 is usually steep alpine. Right. So it talks about anybody in an R10 area, it's subject to administrative site plan review. And so R10 is just a type of zoning and it typically is like steep alpine.

You might be thinking about the last one. The last one they had was basically a free-for-all. Maybe that's what it was. But what I was going to say is that the streets, a lot of these established neighborhoods, the old streets, they're very tiny. And you start adding more population on them.

Well, look, and to your point, and I made this point before, when they were going to the free-for-all last time and they had an AO that basically would wipe out multiple zoning districts and they were going to narrow it down to basically just a couple and that was it. Right before that, they just passed an ordinance to basically, you know, wipe out all the parking requirements. So you wipe out parking requirements and increase density. I mean, there's only two things that can happen.

One is they're going to spend exponentially more on snow hauling. It's going to take longer to clear the streets, and they're going to have to haul it all, which is going to just drive up the cost and the time. Or a more likely scenario is they will increase their snow hauling budget. However,

However, it's gonna become a hot mess. Because look, we live in Alaska, and in February, especially if everybody's parking on the street and the density is increasing, because now you don't require onsite parking. It's just like the perfect storm. That's exactly where I was going with it, literally, because without requiring the builders to put a parking in an area for parking, now you've got on-street parking, and that completely blows the snow plowing routine.

Probably not, simply because they're already established and developed, right?

Oh, I could deal with a three-day weekend. All right. All right, Daryl, we've got to get into it because this is one of those stories. Okay, so when I usually cover campaigns, a lot of times what I'll do is you kind of ramp up, right? You give the basic. You introduce people to the candidates. You ask them basic questions, kind of get a feel for the candidate.

And, of course, you ask them policy questions, kind of figure out what is driving them. What are the most important things to this candidate that's driving them to run for office? Because then it'll give you an idea of what they're going to be most passionately going after when they're in office or what they're going to passionately defend while they're in office, i.e., the Second Amendment, i.e., freedom of speech, lower taxes. These are all good things, right? Right.

Recon, when I don't know somebody, first thing I do is I go to the financial reports. I go to APOC. I say, okay, who has donated to them? And you look at their campaigns. But you also go a step further and say, okay, who have they donated to? Because that gives you an idea of kind of their flavor. What is their preference? How many times do I say follow the money? The money will tell you so much. It may not tell you everything, but it tells you so much.

Because I know it takes a lot to run a campaign. I mean, frankly, campaigns cost money. And when I see candidates out there, especially newer candidates, I try to vet them and figure out if they're worthy of my dollar. And then I send them that way. But sometimes you simply cannot donate.

Because otherwise people will be like, oh, Amy Daboski supports this person. And I don't ever want to hurt somebody that I'm trying to help. Does that make sense? It does. And that actually happens. I mean, I see it all the time in the liberal side. They are pulling all that information and slapping it around out there. Oh, of course. And look, here's the thing.

It was Kathy Giesel. Oh, okay. Now, that actually... Yeah, okay. Yeah. So, again, context matters sometimes, too. But, look, here's the thing. You know, I...

After that mayor's race, like, he ran against me to try to take me out at the assembly. Now, I have no hurt feelings about it, mostly because I won.

It says the Beltrami donation occurred in 2016, obviously, and then she said it came three years after another donation Dahlstrom made to an Anchorage Democrat when she cut a check to then-Senator Johnny Ellis. It says in 2012, Dahlstrom made 30 contributions to the presidential race of Mitt Romney, who is considered by many Republicans to be Utah's version of Senator Lisa Murkowski. Romney...

At the same time, Dahlstrom has enjoyed tremendous support for big labor during her various campaigns for elected office. 30% of Dahlstrom's support for her House campaign in 2018 came from big labor groups.

I'm Mary Peltola. When I decided to run for Congress to continue Don Young's legacy delivering for all Alaskans, I focused on fish, family, and freedom. For years, bottom trawlers have decimated our fisheries and Russian trawlers have undercut the price of Alaska catch. Over the last two years, I've made fish a national issue. We've secured a ban on Russian trawled fish to reduce bycatch and preserve our fisheries. And I wrote legislation to restrict bottom trawling in Alaska waters and to protect Bristol Bay.

6.53 on this Thursday morning. You know, we're talking about money and politics. And Daryl had the best, absolute, most applicable saying during the break.

Oh, that would be a politics makes strange bedfellows. It certainly does. It certainly does. You know, and I look at look, it is it is really funny because there have been some politicians that are on the other side of the aisle. I've had a chance to work with that. I genuinely would say I'm friends with that. I really, really like and I know that.

I mean, my best example is L.V. Gray-Jackson. Like, she is just the salt of the earth, and she's really there because she truly cares about her community. We see policy different on a lot of issues, but, you know, ironically, my very first piece of legislation was a public safety piece of legislation to help the police department and the fire department, and L.V. is the one who co-sponsored it with me. I was a brand-new assembly member, and I did all this research and everything,

And, you know, I really wanted to help police and fire because, I mean, they were spending a lot of time, you know, frankly, picking up drunks. And you would have a fire engine that, if you cost it out per cost, it was like $330 a call. And they would be sitting on a drunk on the side of the road for an hour waiting for transport. What a waste of money. So instead, I said, let's just expand the CSP van patrol service.

which costs about $32.50 a run, and let's expand that contract so we can free up police and fire, and they don't have to be, you know, a drunk taxi service, right? And so LV was the one who co-sponsored that with me. And, you know, so I look back on it, and I have no problem with people working with other people who just want to solve problems, no problem with that at all. But when you start to see some of these, look,

Money tells you a lot. It tells you a lot about how somebody works with others. It tells you a lot about who's going to support others and probably what they're going to support, too. It tells you, you know, that's where people are putting their treasure. And so you have to say, why are they doing that? It's probably because they agree on some things. Right. Right. And so when I look at the APOC reports, the FEC reports, there's just there's absolutely no denying that.

that Nancy Dahlstrom is labor-friendly. There's no denying it, right? And when you look at ranked-choice voting, what does that mean? That really means Mary Paltola voters are probably going to rank Nancy Dahlstrom second. That's what that means, right? See where I'm going with this, Daryl? I do see where you're going with it. I do.

I mean, that's really where you're going. So, again, what is going to happen in this race? You know, again, Nancy has very different ideas than Mary Peltola. She does not agree with Mary Peltola on her energy issues, on her border issues. And we're going to talk about all of this next week when Nancy's on the show. Like, we're not going to hide from it. We're going to have a real substantive conversation about why she's running and what she hopes to accomplish and what her thoughts are on all these issues.
