From: Donna Glenz, Associate Planner ~~
Agenda Item: Preliminary Plat Review of Lot 21 through Lot 25, Block
26, Original Townsite of Seward, Griswold replal
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
Attached for the Commission's review and recommendation to the Kenai Peninsula Borough
Planning Commission is a preliminary plat. This replat will combine the five (5} originally
platted Lots 21 through 25, Block26, Original Townsite of Seward into two lots to be known as
Lots 21 A and 24A, each containing approximately 7,500 square feet.
In accordance with Borough requirements, the City must review and comment on a plat before
submittal to the Borough for approval.
Subdivision Review:
Zoning:
The lots are zoned Single Family Residential (Rl). SCC 15.05.025 (b) (2) Single-family
residential district (X 1). Intended to provide for stable and quiet low to medium density (one to
five dwelling units per acre) detached, single family residential development, free from other
uses except those which are both compatible and convenient to residents ofsuch a district.
Utilities:
The property is served by the existing public utilities and maintained streets, therefore a
subdivision agreement is not required. Existing water, sewer and electric lines are located in the
adjacent rights-of--way. There are several fire hydrants within an approved distance.
Size:
The two new lots will contain approximately 7,500 square feet each and will be approximately
75 feet in width. The new lots meet the requirement for minimum lot width and buildable lot
size in the Single Family Residential District.
Existing Use
Currently the south parcel to be known as Lot 21A is undeveloped land. The current owner of
the land has not stated any future plans for the parcel at this time.
5
The parcel to the north to be known as Lot 24A contains a single family home. The existing
home meets all current setback requirements. As shown in the As-built survey the parcel
contains a shed located within the South and West setbacks. The current property owner has
provided written notice that he plans to move or otherwise remove the shed from the South and
West setbacks.
Flood Zone:
The property is not within a FEMA mapped Flood Hazard Zone.
