Manage episode 329446079 series 3295843
Kameron Perez-Verdia, Assembly member for west Anchorage, spoke persuasively at the Assembly meeting on May 10, 2022, about why he couldn’t vote to fund Mayor Dave Bronson’s planned emergency shelter at Elmore and Tudor, but then he changed his mind at the last moment voting in support of that funding. His vote was decisive ensuring that the funding was approved. We discuss his sudden change of heart and much more, including his childhood in Utqiaġvik.
Key:
"Facilitation Group" = three members of the assembly and three members of the mayoral administration who are working with mediators to create a homelessness plan.
"Alexis" = Alexis Johnson, Mayor Bronson's Chief of Staff
