Juneau's Tourism Task Force: Balancing Growth & Concerns

Juneau, Alaska, is establishing a Visitor Industry Task Force to manage its booming tourism sector, following a record-breaking cruise ship season. The task force will assess the effectiveness of current tourism plans and develop a ten-year strategy, addressing concerns like crowding, whale watching regulations, and ship emissions. The group, led by Assembly member Ella Adkison, will submit recommendations by June, as the first cruise ship of the 2026 season approaches. DNN | The Daily News Now!
