At its upcoming September 25 regular meeting, the Fairbanks Borough Assembly will be voting on its legislative priorities list, which includes general support for the Alaska Long Trail.
Here’s the complete wording:
Alaska Long Trail
To support the continued development of the Alaska Long trail though federal, state and private grants and to establish access though state and borough land.

People wanting to advocate for the trail (or not) can let the Assembly know.
