From the transcript
When it was originally constructed in 1976, the facility served roughly 1,400 properties. Today it serves approximately 4,600 properties, which is over 3 times the customer base. The substation project and this upgrade is really essential, not just for the neighborhood but for the grid overall, and it's going to improve reliability, capacity, and long-term service to residents in West Anchorage. Thank you, staff, for the very thorough summary of the history of the project and what we're proposing with this new upgrade. We are here tonight presenting the results of a fresh start truly with this project, and it's results that we are quite proud of.
