Matanuska-Susitna Borough officials have put on hold a
bid to construct road access to a Sutton coal mining site. This week, the
Borough Assembly agreed to postpone a vote on a lease for the road to the
Wishbone Hill Coal Mine. Public testimony regarding the road was mostly
negative at a hearing held on Tuesday.
