TIlE CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA
RESOLUTION NO. 730
The City Council of The City of Seward, Alaska, being fully aware of and recog-
nizing the problems of Alcoholism appointed a committee of local residents to
study and make recommended possible legislative action along with local and
state programming which would perhaps assist in resolving certain alcoholism
problems within the State.
The committee after many hours of study and consideration submitted their
report to the City Council and urged that their resolutions be adopted as the first
move in alleviating alcoholism problems within Alaska and the area.
RESOLUTION NO.2 SUBMITTED BY STEERING COMMITI'BE ON ALCOHOLISM:
WHER EAS: the problem of chronic alcoholism constitutes only one of the prob-
lems facing the Public Health Officer for the State of Alaska; and
WHER BAS: there is now a void in the process by which a person suffering from
chronic alcoholism may be so certified and subjected to proper treatment.
nIEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: that the Seward City Council recommend to
the State Department of Health, to the State Steering Committee on Alcoholism,
and to Representative Irwin Metcalf and Senator W. I. Palmer, (or their duly
elected successors) that adequate steps be taken to secure the earliest possible
appointment of one Public Health Officer in each of the forty House Districts in
the State of Alaska.
