| A land acknowledgement is a formal statement recognizing the Indigenous people of a place. It is a public gesture of appreciation for the past and present Indigenous stewardship of the lands that we now occupy. It is an actionable statement that marks our collective movement towards decolonization and equity.
The Anchorage Assembly would like to acknowledge that we gather today on the traditional lands of the Dena’ina Athabascans. For thousands of years the Dena’ina have been and continue to be the stewards of this land. It is with gratefulness and respect that we recognize the contributions, innovations, and contemporary perspectives of the upper Cook Inlet Dena’ina. |

Clerk’s Note: In Sections 11-15 of the Assembly Agenda, Assembly Ordinances (AOs) may propose to change municipal law, Anchorage Municipal Code (AMC) or Anchorage Municipal Code of Regulations (AMCR). Ordinances may use “legislative formatting” to show the changes or “amendments” to the current code as required by AMC 1.05.050. The purpose of legislative formatting is to provide an easy means for the Assembly and public to clearly understand current code language versus proposed changes.
Legislative formatting includes underlining new language and [PLACING DELETED LANGUAGE IN CAPITAL LETTERS WITHIN BRACKETS]. Substitute versions of ordinances are characterized by bolded text. Second substitute versions by italics. Omitting current text of a code section is indicated by three series of three asterisks (* * * x3). Legislative formatting is not necessary when enacting entirely new sections.
