Borough planner: new searchable street map, near-complete 911 integration; renewable-IPP lease withdrawn
Denali Boroughland planner Trina Haugen told the Planning Commission Wednesday that the boroughhas updated its online street map to display official street names and assigned borough addresses and is close to sharing the address database with regional 911 dispatch.

"We are very... close to sharing our database with the Fairbanks Emergency Communication Center or City Dispatch," Haugen said, noting the borough has already shared data with Fairbanks North Star Borough, which acts as the keeper of regional address data that feeds 911 systems.

Haugen said the map displays any address that has been officially assigned; the map shows only the number (no personally identifiable information) and is searchable. She added that many addresses have now been adopted by Google and that staff expect improved navigation and routing as the database is integrated with regional dispatch.

Haugen also informed the commission that Renewable IPP withdrew its lease application in recent months. "Renewable IPP did withdraw their lease application in the last couple months due to economic uncertainty and, specifically, renewable energy tax credits," she said. Haugen said the applicant had been unable to find a developer to take on the project and that the lease application will not be returning before the commission at this time.

Finally, Haugen told the commission that the assembly recently passed an ordinance creating a Community and Outdoor Recreation Committee and that to balance staff workload the planning commission will move to an every-other-month schedule, with the next regular meeting expected in August; special meetings can still be called if time-sensitive plats arrive.

No formal action was required on these reports; staff said follow-up work would proceed administratively.
