replats must first be submitted to the City for review prior to the submittal of the plat to the Kenai

process in more detail. The plat will be reviewed first by the City of Kenai Planning and Zoning
Commission and then by the Kenai Peninsula Borough’s Plat Committee and Planning
Commission.

deemed the application to be complete. The City of Kenai follows Kenai Peninsula Borough Code
20.25.070 and 20.25.080 for preliminary plat submittal requirements.

Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission in the Peninsula Clarion. No public comments have been

ANALYSIS
Access to the proposed Tract A-1 is via Bridge Access Road and Beaver Loop Road which are
paved roads maintained by the State of Alaska. Tract 4-A is provided access via Bridge Access
Road. The property owner has a permit from the State of Alaska, Department of Transportation
to develop a driveway off of Bridge Access Road. The proposed plat does not dedicate any
additional rights-of-way. Street names are denoted accurately on the preliminary plat.
City of Kenai water and sewer lines are within the right-of-way of Bridge Access Road; however,
City Council enacted Ordinance 2009-2017 granting the property owner an exception to KMC
17.10 Connection to Public Water System and KMC 17.20 Connection to Public Sewer System.
This exception affects a portion of Tract A-1 that is proposed to be formerly known as Lot 7A,
Block 1, Bridge Road Subdivision Lockwood Addition). The agreement states it is to move with
the property. The City would follow through to get a new agreement in place following the
finalization of the plat. The City Public Works Director approves of the plans for water and sewer
connection. An installation agreement is not required.
A ten foot (10’) utility easement runs along the perimeter of Tract A-1 and the southwesterly ten
feet (10’) of Lot A-4 of the proposed plat. A ten foot (10’) utility easement centered on the new lot
line of Lot A-4 is proposed to be added to the plat. In addition, a twenty foot (20’) utility easement
that runs across the middle of Tract A-1 is proposed to be vacated. These changes meet City
Code and would allow for orderly development of the new parcel. City staff does not object and
would plan to recommend approval of the easement changes to City Council.
Based upon the submitted materials and this review, the preliminary plat meets requirements of
KMC Subdivision design standards and KMC 14.10.080 Minimum improvements required under
Chapter 14.10 Subdivision Regulations. City staff recommends a condition of approval for the
property to conform to all federal, State of Alaska, and local regulations.
RECOMMENDATIONS
City staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat of Bridge Road Subdivision 2019 Replat,
subject to the following conditions:
1.Further development of the property shall conform to all federal, State of Alaska, and local
regulations.
2.A City of Kenai Water and Sewer Waiver Agreement be signed for the new parcel with the
new owner.
