From the transcript

Regarding the True North Recovery HUD grant to buy the Access Alaska building in Fairview. I will be putting that contract back on the assembly agenda for the meeting of July 7th. There has been robust community conversation about this purchase. When I pulled the agreement, the AM, off of the agenda in May, True North was planning a launchpad project where crisis services would be provided on-site.
