Wrangell Sentinel -

A Wrangell resident is still sitting atop the board of directors of Alaska Housing Finance Corporation, thanks to his re-election to the post late last month.

The AHFC board re-elected Frank Roppel to serve as the chair of the group at its annual meeting in Wrangell July 25. Former governor Frank Murkowski appointed Roppel in 2003. He has chaired the organization ever since.

Roppel is also the chairman of the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation, which is a subunit of AHFC, and he previously served on the Alaska State Housing Authority and AHFC boards for 12 years in the 1970s and ’80s....
