OPINION

MATTHEWS, Chief Justice.

I. INTRODUCTTON

This case concerns the issuance by the Planning and Zoning Commission of a conditional use permit for a granite mining operation to the National Bank of Alaska. The decision granting the permit is challenged by the Native Village of Eklutna. Because the Commission failed to consider properly the potential historical significance of the area, we vacate the decision of the Board of Adjustment and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
