Huffman/O'Malley Community Council

05/28/2026

HOCC has delivered Resolution 2026-04 along with half a dozen letters of support to State and Municipal officials in support of non-motorized transportation improvements along Brayton Drive between DeArmoun and Dimond. We look forward to working with our partners at all levels to see these low cost, high return projects implemented.

We hope our neighbors are enjoying the sunny weather this Memorial Day and may we all take a moment to consider and reflect on the reason for the day.

Thanks to everyone who came out tonight! We elected new officers, passed the Brayton Drive resolution, and had great discussions on the gas line, school closures, and defined benefits. Welcome to our new officers. Thank you for stepping up. A heartfelt thank you to our departing officers. Thank you for all you’ve done for the Community and we will see you next meeting! We are off for our regularly scheduled summer break. We will return on 20 August at 7pm at Huffman Elementary and online. Look for updates on wood chipping, sprinklers, and other topics of interest in the meantime.

As a result of our Brayton Drive walk audit, our Brayton Drive neighbors have put forward a resolution to be considered tomorrow night at our regular meeting. The text is contained below. They are gathering letters of support as well. One neighbor who is representing the neighborhood will present the resolution tomorrow night. This resolution also builds on a CIP request that has been on the HOCC CIP list for some time.

We want to thank our local business partners, Bema Roasters (located at 701 W 36th Ave., Anchorage, AK 99503) and High Five Hand Pies (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61568137757589).

Another successful year at the Kempton Hills Garage Sale. Lots of well fed, alert bargain hunters walking around yesterday.

Go check them out, and support local small businesses around town.

Our next regular meeting will be this Thursday at 7pm online and at Huffman Elementary. We will be holding elections for the next year. There will also be a resolution before us as a result of yesterday’s Walk Audit, championed by our neighbors who live along Brayton Drive.

Thanks to everyone who came to our Brayton Drive Walk Audit. It was a good opportunity to learn about the needs of our HOCC neighbors and talk about opportunities to align those needs with what DOT needs. Appreciate our friends from DOT taking the time to join as well as Assembly Member Zac Johnson and the President of Rabbit Creek Community Council.

The HOCC CIP list is due to the Muni on June 1. The list is essentially the same Top-9 we provided last year with some tweaks to align with our CAPSIS submission this year so we can be consistent in what we are requesting when possible.

This survey (linked below and for our HOCC neighbors only, please) gives you the opportunity to rank the list and provide input if you see the need for something else. Thanks for being involved in this process!
