The Juneau Assembly recently approved two ballot measures aimed at improving public health and safety in the city. These measures, if passed by voters in the upcoming fall election, will provide nearly $23 million for upgrades to the public safety communication system and the Juneau Douglas Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The $12.7 million bond measure seeks to replace the outdated radio system used by the Juneau Police Department and Capital City Fire/Rescue. According to police officials, the current system is past its expected lifespan and is causing issues such as dead zones and unreliability. The total cost of the project is estimated to be around $25 million.
The other $10 million bond measure aims to cover the costs of replacing the wastewater clarifier building at the Juneau Douglas Wastewater Treatment Plant. This plant services Thane, Downtown, and Douglas, and city officials cite decades of erosion as the reason for the replacement.
Both measures will be included on the Oct. 1 municipal election ballot following the Assembly’s unanimous approval. Overall, these approved ballot measures reflect
