dictates that an Assembly member or other public servant can’t participate in official action “in which the public servant or a member of the public servant’s immediate family has a substantial financial or private interest.”“If 60 or 70% of the Assembly votes that are taken are on contract approvals, then would he just recuse himself for more than half the job?” Brawley said during a recent interview.
Flynn said his opposition is using the situation as a “negative tool” to build a perception that contracts are directed solely at the behest of the mayor or Alger, to be pushed through the Assembly with Flynn’s vote.Flynn noted that member Meg Zaletel has often recused herself from votes on items regarding homelessness because of her role as the executive director of the Anchorage Coalition to End Homelessness.
Petersen said that former Municipal Manager Amy Dembsoki, who was an Eagle River/Chugiak Assembly member from 2013 through 2018, often disclosed a conflict because her husband is an employee in the Anchorage Fire Department.
