And there are people that came opposing that, the Alexa group, uh, saying that they are on the edge of getting their thing done and, you know, presented to the Boundary Commission. That was false.

The Matanuska-Susitna Borough Planning Commission passed Resolution 26-09 on Monday, recommending a rewrite of multifamily development standards to create tiered permitting, tighten drainage and fire access rules, and resolve a longstanding problem with how condo plats are treated under borough code.
