Seems like the city could hire a full time driver for a water truck. 
It goes to show the good Lord didn't design Alaska for cars and four-wheelers, I guess. Maybe summer would be a good time to encourage the use of bicycles and also walking. In the olden days the Ahtna people were semi-nomadic and walked hundreds of miles all year around, from the Wrangells to Denali. They followed caribou, moose and salmon. Trails were wide and deeply worn from between five  and seven thousand years of use. So walking in Alaska is not out of the question. 
Back in the 90s we had a huge problem with dust which was deposited as volcanic ash all across the Copper Valley. That stuff blew around for five years afterward! We were told it was five times as hard as steel and it got into and destroyed our cars, our electronic equipment and a lot of residents now have COPD. Interestingly, the ash contained so many nutrients that the trees literally shot up! Areas that were open years ago are now forested.
