The city council approved an ordinance on August 26 to change the disclosure rules to be local and not coincide with state legislation. Soldotna was one of a few Alaskan cities that put this on their October ballots, citing that state rules were too intrusive into local matters. Councilwoman Betty Obendorf said that she wanted to make sure realtors, insurance professionals, financial advisers, doctors, and attorneys were also added to the lists of those who did not have to disclose their client information if they did not want to.[2]
The official ordinance stated that the local government wanted to establish its own rules and guidelines to manage financial disclosure laws that were under the state regulations.[3]
