JACK TOST SEEKS
BUILDING PERMIT
Jack Tost of Tost’s Service ap
peared before the council Novem
ber 26 with a request that he be
permitted to erect a new build
ing, to be located at the corner
of Lazy Mountain Avenue and
Matanuska Street, part of which
will extend over the established
boundary line.
The request was made neces
sary when architect plans were
found to be out of accord with
city ordinances and involves a
triangle, two and one half feet
widd and 12 feet long. The request
was granted by city councilmen
when Tost explained that the or
iginal plans have been altered as
far as possible to eliminate the
corner. Further changes would
necessitate the complete revision
of plans and approximately six
months of construction time
would be lost.
Tost said the plans to start
his digging this fall and will pour
the foundation as early as the
season permits.
“Places to Go and How to Get
There in Alaska” is the title of
a blue and gold portfolio being
prepared by the Alaska Visitors
Association at Juneau. “Here is
an opportunity for Alaskans to
have literature placed directly in
the hands of the key people who
are selling travel,” said Jim
Chadwick, AVA’s executive di
rector. The Association request
that material for the pamphlet be
supplied within the next two or
three weeks. They will dissemin
ate 3,000 kits shortly after the
first of the year. A maximum al- j
lotment of 3,000 folders from each j
place of business is required.
