From the transcript

Looking at our capital improvement programs, and always making sure that our rates are affordable and that they meet the needs of the community. In addition to that, Mark was really bigger than Alaska. We talk a lot about his footprint within the municipality of Anchorage as well as his work throughout the state of Alaska, but he was also involved in a lot of professional organizations like the American Water Works Association, Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies, Water Environment Federation, and the, the international organization Water for People, which he was treasurer for, for several years, and went internationally to provide water and sewer services to underserved communities. Wrapping up, Mark had a much larger than life legacy that is still being played out today, and we would be honored to name our headquarters building at 3000 Arctic as the AWWU headquarters— Mark C. Primo Headquarters Building. Thank you.
