The Urbanized Area (UA) designation requires the Borough and cities of Wasilla and Palmer to change their approach to planning and land use regulation. These municipalities who have reached a population of 50,000 must form a Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). This will make it easier to work together, making sure our transportation infrastructure meets the demands of our growing community. Go to this link to learn more about an MPO. www.mvpmpo.com
