Ron Long, Assistant City Manager
From: Donna Glenz, Planner
Agenda Item: Resolution 2014-01 recommending Kenai Peninsula Borough approval of
Leirer Industrial Subdivision, AVTEC Skill Center Replat, Lot 1A.
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
Attached for the Commission's review and recommendation to the Kenai Peninsula Borough
Planning Commission is a preliminary plat submitted by Lounsbury and Associates, Inc. on
behalf of Steve Leirer. In accordance with Borough Code no preliminary plat within the City
limits may be submitted to the Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning Commission for approval
without the prior review of the City.
This replat is located at the North end of the Leirer Industrial Subdivision, north and east of
Alameda Street and Leirer Road. This platting action vacates the interior lot lines of Tract C,
and Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Leirer Industrial Subdivision, creating one large parcel to be known as
Lot 1A, totaling approximately 3.66 acres. The new Lot 1A provides a single large parcel
currently leased to the State of Alaska, AVTEC Skill Center. AVTEC has future plans to expand
the vocational program and construct new facilities on this parcel. Seward City Code (SCC)
§12.01.030 states that no building, except a single family residence, may be constructed across
platted property lines. Therefore, AVTEC has requested the interior lot lines be vacated in
preparation for the new construction.
Alaska Skill Center Tract C-1 is located north of the proposed replat and is owned by the State of
Alaska. The current AVTEC Skill Center structure is generally located on Tract C-1. The
structure was expanded to the south in 1980. During that expansion the structure was built over
the property line creating an encroachment onto the privately owned property now known as the
Leirer Subdivision.
The matter of the encroachment is between the State of Alaska and the property owner, Steve
Leirer. The State of Alaska, AVTEC has been leasing the property containing the encroachment
(current Tract C) and the adjoining two (2) parcels (current Lots 1&2) and plans to continue the
lease as well as invest heavily in additional structures on the leased area. The Borough
subdivision code requires a plat note that clarifies that Borough acceptance of the plat does not
constitute acceptance of any encroachments. Staff is requesting the City of Seward also be
added to that plat note.

City of Seward, Alaska, granting a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to Wayne
Moore to operate two (2) efficiency apartments within a commercial structure
in the Central Business Zoning District, on Lots 1 & 2, Block 18, Federal
Addition at 903 Fourth Avenue

Property owners were informed of the Conditional .0 se Permit,.application and no
comments had been received, Glenz said.
Fleming asked how an operator might learn that a Conditional Use Permit was required.
Glenz said that normally a detailed City building permit application would be submitted
and the Community Development Department would conduct..,a review for allowed uses and
zoning and require the permit. During 2004,the review process'and building permit process was
not as thorough,Glenz said.
Butts asked if the rental property had been inspected:by the Fire Department.
Glenz said the property would be inspected if it were used as a nightly rental operation,
instead of monthly rentals. Glenz' rther explained that the applicant had recently applied for a

hearing was closed.

City of Seward,Alaska Planning Commission Minutes
November 7, 2013 Volume 7,Page 59

provide for health and safety.
