Where the data comes from
- City website: https://juneau.org
- Agendas and meeting calendar: https://juneauak.portal.civicclerk.com/
- Meeting video: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbC37ygkTn7MdlLadv92kaQ (official CBJ YouTube channel)
- Officials, agendas and video lists were collected from these official sources on 2026-10-22.
- Issue pages were rebuilt on 2026-10-24 from the full text of the Assembly regular meeting minutes of June 8 and July 27, 2026, the Assembly Human Resources Committee minutes of August 17, 2026 and the Assembly Lands, Housing & Economic Development Committee minutes of August 31, 2026.
Data quality notes
- CivicClerk event list (public API) showed no Assembly or Assembly Committee meetings after 2026-09-22 (only Planning Commission and boards), so no full Assembly meetings/agenda links were listed; juneau.org/calendar not checked.
- YouTube channel shows Assembly videos only through Sept 21, 2026 (COW worksession 3 uM_KZWzPdpY, Sept 14 regular 1mo82zXc4Pw), both before the 9/22 window, so videos is empty; no videos found for the Sept 22 Planning Commission.
- Venue/time for Docks & Harbors and Airport Board not verified; their times are from the portal listing.
- Assembly minutes for meetings after July 27, 2026 (the August Assembly meetings and any September meetings) and other committees (Finance, Committee of the Whole, Public Works) were not read, so outcomes of the September 2 Finance Committee, the October 6, 2026 ballot measures and the August glacial lake outburst flood are not recorded.
- Public comment topics not built as issues: bear nuisance enforcement and a neighborhood encampment (July 27). Routine liquor license actions, the Egan Drive intersection state project review and ceremonial items were skipped. Private property owners in late-filed exemption requests and appointees to advisory boards are not named.
- Planning Commission issue pages (Chilkat Vistas, Clinton Drive, Lemon Creek) still come from agendas only.
