 High school student paper: Up the Creek Without a Paddle: Home Septic Systems in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
According to Ken Hudson, the Matanuska Susitna Borough's coastal planner and the head of the MSB code compliance department, 90% of the population of the MSB lives between the communities of Big Lake and Palmer, along the road corridor, which follows the natural contours of the major river systems in the area.
Alaska is one of the least populated states in the nation, but these demographics are changing, especially in the MSB (Table 1).
In 1990, the total population of Alaska was 550,043, and the population of the MSB was 39,683.

 Lazy Mountan Land Club v. Matanuska-Susitna Borough Board of Adjustment and Appeal (9/1/95), 904 P 2d 373
Alaska Statute 29.25.010 requires that certain acts by a municipality must be done by ordinance.33 Among those acts which are enumerated is the adoption, modification or repeal of a municipality's comprehensive plan.34 Alaska Statute 29.25.020 provides detailed procedural requirements which must be followed in the adoption of an ordinance.
Because the borough's citizens had an opportunity for comment at a public hearing when MSB 15.24.030(B) was enacted in 1991, we hold that the 1970 plan was adopted by ordinance as required by AS 29.25.010(a)(6).
Nor is the Borough's failure to require a permit for its public landfill evidence of arbitrary enforcement, because, as discussed in the next section, MSB 17.60 only applies to "commercial" junkyards and refuse areas.

 KeepMedia | American City & County: Matanuska-Susitna Borough, Alaska
Alaska's Matanuska-Susitna Borough is proving that a little can go a long way with the right people.
Working with the staffs of six federal, state and volunteer organizations, the borough has combined a $250,000 bond with more than $400,000 of cash donations and in-kind services to improve and restore the Deshka River and Campground.
Also, waves from jet boats, airboats and floatplanes were beginning to expose root zones of vegetation, and unguided and unmanaged dockings were creating nick and scour points along the riverbank.

 US v. Matanuska-Susitna Borough (12/8/95), 906 P 2d 1386
The Boroughs argue that the mere act of foreclosing on and retaining property is considered sufficient to sustain the taxability of the property, because foreclosing on and retaining property secured by agency loans is part of the agency's investment program.4 They claim that interest earned on money lent by an agency constitutes an investment.
In essence, the Boroughs argue that when an agency retains land upon foreclosure for resale, it is retaining the land for investment.
Sisters of Charity, 553 P.2d 467 (Alaska 1976), we expressed the public policy underlying taxation: All property is benefitted by the security and protection furnished by the State, and it is only just and equitable that expenses incurred in the operation and maintenance of government should be fairly apportioned upon the property of all.

Timber, wood chipping and manufacturing are possible industries, he said, adding that Williams Alaska Petroleum Inc. has indicated it wants to move its Government Hill fuel tanks to the new port.

The Matanuska-Susitna Borough feared that, left unchecked, those factors would lead to vegetation loss, a wider and shallower riverbed, and a shortage of overhead cover for juvenile salmon.
Thus, in 2000, using $250,000 from a $4.4 million parks, recreation and trails bond, the borough began its Deshka River campground improvement and restoration project.
Having achieved the bulk of its goals, the borough believes that it has halted degredation and has made the area more sustainable for fish, wildlife and recreation.
