The prospective ordinance follows a 2019 assembly resolution seeking to establish the relationship with Eklutna’s tribal government, Alaska’s News Source reported Monday. The ordinance was scheduled for a public hearing and vote at the assembly’s meeting on Tuesday. The ordinance outlines a process for Eklutna to provide input to Anchorage municipal processes. The measure would direct the municipality to develop policies with Eklutna to identify programs and projects affecting the village.
