(1) within a municipality

(A) that has adopted a local option, the local option adopted by the municipality applies in the overlapping area;

(B) the local option adopted by the established village does not apply in the overlapping area;

(2) within the perimeter of another established village and, if the other established village has

(A) also adopted a local option under AS 04.11.491 , the local option of the established village that is less restrictive applies in the overlapping area;

(B) not adopted a local option under AS 04.11.491 , the local option does not apply in the overlapping area.

(c) If the board determines that the perimeter of an established village as provided under (a) and (b) of this section does not accurately reflect the perimeter of the established village, the board may establish the perimeter of the established village and the areas of overlapping perimeter described under (b) of this section for purposes of applying a local option selected under this chapter.
