"...a location outside Dillingham, Alaska". I'm pretty sure that Wood River is a historically separate community which was subsumed into Dillingham's corporate limits. There was a court case in the 1960s concerning their attempts to incorporate separately and I'm pretty sure the case is accessible online. There was a precedent from about eight years before, when Rogers Park attempted to incorporate separately to avoid annexation by Anchorage, where the judge eventually ruled in Anchorage's favor. I'm not really that familiar with the case but I'm to understand it's pretty important to local government history in Alaska.
