The delay for the Sullivan Arena mass congregate shelter to increase capacity has ended after some confusion between Mayor Dave Bronson and the Anchorage Assembly.
A letter from Anchorage Assembly leadership was sent to members of the media requesting that a five-day waiting period be waived, just over an hour before Bronson’s letter in response, which said that the capacity would be increased immediately.
The correspondence from LaFrance and Rivera also notes that Bronson is “required to present findings and justifications for any requested extension of this policy at the Assembly’s Committee for Housing and Homelessness Meeting” on Jan. 18 of 2023. “I wanted to contact you immediately to let you know that you do not need to wait five days and the resolution as passed allows you to open 160 additional beds immediately,” LaFrance wrote. “We, too, would like to see everyone currently in the warming area have access to a warm bed before Christmas.”
