No, YOU have it backwards. The city charter requires that people who were once in the Greater Anchorage Borough to vote themselves into services--like fire or parks. Bear Valley finally joined the Fire Service area a few yrs ago. Now they had an opportunity to join the Parks Service Area. No service area--no help with the mounting issues as people clamor to get to 'wilderness'  through neighborhoods. Weddleton was only doing his job by allowing voters the chance for service or not.
