PLANNING Resolution 90-20: Sandland Subdivision Preliminary Plat MOTION: Commissioner McComsey moved approval of Resolution 90-20. Commissioner Scott seconded. Chairman Bryson noted La Shot's comments that no sewer and water were available. La Shot clarified that those utilities were not available to Lot 6, but that they could be available with a mainline extension, or by combining lots and using the water and sewer available on an adjacent lot. Commissioner McComsey asked about notation that buildings on Lot 2 & 3 don't show the setbacks. La Shot said that Howard Hackney ask that the buildings be shown to determine if the setbacks conform to the Code. Chairman Bryson said he thought the buildings needed to be shown before the plat could be approved to avoid encroachments. Commissioner Graveley also noted that Lot 5 didn't have the footage listed correctly. Chairman Bryson said that was a matter for the Borough. Commissioner Graveley asked that it be made a matter of record. Chairman Bryson felt that the motion could address City's concerns about showing existing buildings on Plat. Commissioner McComsey amended motion: Moved approval of Resolution 90-20 with concerns that the Surveyor should show locations of buildings with relationship to lot lines. Second concurred. VOTE: Passed by unanimous consent as modified. KENAI PLANNING September 26, Page 4 9. REPORTS & ZONING COMMISSION 1990 a.
