Following a June Pride event in a Soldotna city park, city officials are reviewing some sections of code as residents speak out — in some instances with threatening messages — to events held at the park.
“In one respect, people wanted to make sure that the performances, that the events, that the use of our public park are appropriate for the community and in line with the communities values,” Queen said
According to Queen, the video sparked lively conversations on both ends of the spectrum. During the July city council meeting, she said she saw the most participation at any council meeting ever. In addition to people disputing the drag performance, Queen recalled many other community members who supported the event.
“Given the change in this park’s use, how popular it has become, it makes sense to do kind of a complete review,” Queen said. ”I think it is time, it is prudent to step back and take a look at all the materials, all the guiding documents, and just revisit them to make sure they still meeting the communities needs.”
