From the transcript
Don't— you don't have to make us wealthy, but you must keep us whole. You have the choice in your hands between Alaskans like the folks on the Kenai holding the bag for 2 generations or enough in local taxes to provide for a healthy 30-plus-year partnership absent of local taxpayer subsidies. Thank you for the invitation to testify and for caring about finding the right balance that supports this project and actually helps Alaskans. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Do members of the Senate Finance Committee have questions of Mayor Machickie?
