SUMMARY
The proposed preliminary plat will subdivide an approximately 33.66-acre parcel described by
metes and bounds into two (2) lots with the proposed Lot 10-A to be approximately 11.38 acres
and proposed Lot 10-B to be approximately 22.27 acres. The subject parcel is a treed vacant lot.
Surrounding properties are primarily vacant, except to the south is the Pillars Boat Launch. At this
time, there is no proposed use.
Kenai Municipal Code Chapter 14.10 Subdivision Regulations states preliminary plats or replats
must first be submitted to the City for review and provide recommendation to the Kenai Peninsula
Borough Planning Commission.
ANALYSIS
The proposed subdivision meets the preliminary plat requirements and development
requirements for the Rural Residential (RR) zoning district. The subdivided lots will have access
via Silver Salmon Drive, which is not a City-maintained road. City water and sewer lines are not
available to the proposed subdivision. The proposed subdivision will be subject to the
requirements of the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) for on-site water
and wastewater systems. An installation agreement is not required.
Staff finds that the proposed preliminary plat meets the following Title 14 of Kenai Municipal Code
(KMC) sections.
1. Pursuant to KMC 14.10.070 Subdivision design standards, the plat conforms to the
minimum street widths, easements are sufficiently provided for utilities, the proposed
subdivision would provide satisfactory and desirable building site, and the on-site water
and wastewater system will be subject to the regulatory requirements of ADEC.
2. Pursuant to KMC 14.24.010 Minimum lot area requirements, the proposed lots meet City
standards for minimum lot sizes in the subject zoning district.
3. Pursuant to KMC 14.24.020 General Requirements, the proposed lots meet City
standards for minimum lot width and utility easements. Compliance with the maximum lot
coverage, maximum height, and setbacks will be reviewed during the building permit
review.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff finds that the proposed preliminary plat for Oberts Silver Salmon Subdivision meets the
general standards of Kenai Municipal Code, Chapter 14.10 Subdivision Regulations and Chapter
14.24 Development Requirements Table, and hereby recommends that the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommends approval of Resolution No. PZ2023-12 to Kenai Peninsula Borough,
subject to the following conditions.
1. Revised Note 2 on the Preliminary Plat to “DEVELOPMENT MUST MEET THE CITY OF
KENAI CHAPTER 14.20 ZONING CODE REQUIREMENTS”.
