From the transcript
Go ahead, sir. Thank you, Madam Mayor. Alex Draughan, planning director for the Matsu Borough. I am the author of this ordinance and I actually am the one who brought this to Assemblymember Sumner after he asked the question why it is that we're having limited gravel, specifically in the Knick Fairview area. And I thought that I might might have an explanation.
