Glen Wilder, Alaska Housing Authority executive, was a visitor at the Douglas City Council meet- ing last Wednesday evening in a special session. . Wilder outlined the problems in starting the Douglas Housing pro- ject—which is now a year behind, with construction supposed to have been completed during last sum- mer. The main reason 1or his Coun- cil visit was to explain the reasons behind the Alaska Housing Authori- ty’s decision to erect 50 housing units on undeveloped land, outside the incorporafed city. The project definitely is of interest to Douglas because it involves the Douglas In- dependent School District. Business coming before the coun- | cil that evening included reading of an amended dog ordinance which would - double the license rates for both male and female dogs, and provide a dog pound facility for unclaimed dogs. It was announced by Mayor Pu- sich that fuil settlement had been made by the insurance companies on the wind-wrecked cannery struc- tures, which suffered in this win- ter's north wind storm. Arrange- ments are being made now for the rebuilding of the building with the possibility of the Douglas Vol- unteer Fire Department taking over the construction end under super- vision o: the City.
