Alaska’s economy never stands still. One minute the oil industry is booming while tourism companies are tottering, and the next the construction industry is laying down its hammers while fishermen are enjoying strong catches.
In this blog we’ll track those highs and lows, resource development disputes, new ventures and many other topics. We’ll rely on our own reporting as well as bring you relevant news from other media or any other source that has information of interest to people following Alaska industries, from mining to retail to real estate.
We encourage your comments on our posts, but please keep them courteous and on topic. If you violate the ADN comment policy, your posts will be deleted.

From Bill White --
BOMA Anchorage members recently dissected a proposed rewrite of Anchorage's Title 21 -- the law that governs development in the city.
BOMA doesn't like the rewrite one bit. The city has worked on the rewrite for many years, and it's nearly final.
Here's a letter and analysis of the proposed rewrite that BOMA sent to Mayor Sullivan this summer.
(BOMA is an acronym for Building Owners & Managers Association.)
