From the transcript
Mr. Cross, through the chair, um, to staff. So my understanding based on what I just heard is that we have two opposing plats. We have an MOA plat and we have a DOT plat, and we're talking about an aerial easement— excuse me, a floating right-of-way easement that's only on the DOT plat but not on the MOA plat, in which case Is there one that supersedes the other? Is there one, or— and if it's not in the MOA plat, then we can— then why are we adding to it? I don't like plat notes.

Anchorage Platting Board leaves Knik Arm easement intact, citing state authority
The Anchorage Platting Board voted July 1 to approve a Port of Alaska subdivision plat without removing a floating right-of-way easement for the Knik Arm Crossing, a bridge with no funding, no place in current transportation plans, and toll projections one engineer called fraudulent. Board members concluded the municipal plat note was largely symbolic because the easement already exists on a state DOT plat that supersedes local authority.
