1. Peterson Creek Owners Association Variance Request
(2:00) Jonathan Lange presented that the variance request is to the frontage and practical
access to a public right-of-way for a proposed minor subdivision of four existing lots in USS
1555 into nine-lots. Mr. Lange explained that there is an easement to the subdivision as well as
within the subdivision that provides access to the lots and subdivision. (3:20) The property is
outside of the urban service area boundary and outside the fire service boundary. In 1977, the
property was subdivided by a platting waiver along with restrictive covenants that limit the
number of houses and lots. The driveway is within the 25’ no development/50’ no disturbance
buffer along Peterson Creek, an anadromous stream. (5:40) Mr. Lange discussed the issues for
the SRC including that all lots must have 30 feet of frontage on a publicly maintained right-of-
way. The subdivision has an easement across Goldbelt property for access to the subdivision.
Right-of-way is also required within the subdivision. Any improvements to the driveway due to
the subdivision expansion would occur within the stream buffer; currently, CBJ is not accepting
variances to this section of Code.
(6:45) Mr. Voelckers clarified that streamside buffer variances are not within the purview of the
Planning Commission Board of Adjustment to consider. So the solution is to do it by
nomenclature – not calling it a right-of-way. Mr. Lange answered yes, but they would come
back to that. Mr. Voelckers asked what the applicants were hoping to get from the SRC tonight
since the item is already scheduled for the November 24th, 2015, public hearing. (7:44) Ms.
Keiser answered that she wanted to give an overview of the request and orient them to the
subdivision. Ms. Boyce explained that this request was brought before the SRC previously when
the previous subdivision rules applied. Now the new subdivision rules that went into effect on
September 30th apply. The new rules apply regarding access – there is access TO the
subdivision, as well as access WITHIN the subdivision. The existing driveway is also within the
50 foot habitat buffer and those three items are what we want to talk about tonight.
(8:57) Ms. Keiser presented the PCLA request. The driveway goes from North Douglas Highway
to and through the subdivision. It was built in 1968 and this “road” pre-dates the habitat
requirements in Code so it is non-conforming. They assert that this driveway is direct and
practical access as required by Code. It is a privately maintained driveway in two private
easements. They present a slide show regarding the driveway. It is eighteen feet at its widest
and twelve feet at its narrowest. It is mostly fourteen feet wide. The platting waiver previously
approved required an owner’s association and restrictive covenants as conditions for approval
of the subdivision. The easement is a forty foot permanent easement across Goldbelt property
to the subdivision. Then, within the subdivision, it is a private easement to each lot as
established in the restrictive covenants.
(12:45) Mr. Voelckers asked if the Goldbelt easement portion is surveyed. Mr. Wild answers
that it is and the easement document and survey are included in the SRC materials. It was
surveyed as part of the easement purchase agreement with Goldbelt previously. The easement
has not been surveyed within the subdivision, but would be as part of the subdivision. (13:42)
Mr. Voelckers stated that he remembered from the previous SRC presentation that the
easement is essentially like a right-of-way because it is permanent and functions like a right-of-
way. Ms. Keiser discusses the location of the driveway. The original owner of the subdivision
that built the roadway tried to run it down the middle of USS 1555. Ms. Keiser continues
through the slideshow regarding easement conditions. (16:00) The driveway averages twenty
feet from the stream if measured at 100 foot intervals, but varies from greater than 50 feet to
as close as three feet. Ms. Keiser stresses that the principal direct and practical access is non-
conforming and they would not be aggravating it because they would not be changing the
footprint of the existing driveway. (16:45) Referencing the variance criteria in Code that states
that there be no net decrease for conformance with Code for nonconforming situations, Ms.
Keiser states that if they would be using the same driveway that there would not be a greater
nonconformance. State highway driveway standards, Ms. Keiser states, are a minimum of 14
feet wide, less than 15% grade, and enters public right-of-way at a right angle and their
driveway meets those standards. Regarding public safety, the driveway adequately meets
safety standards. Over thirty years, about five instances have occurred in which the police or
emergency vehicles have had to access the driveway and there were no issues. (18:12) She
points out that they are outside the fire service area and they regularly receive deliveries, such
as fuel, building materials, FedEx, furniture, and even concrete trucks, to their properties.
Mr. Voelckers asked if any new driveways across the creek would be needed as part of the
subdivision request or if they already exist. In the narrowest portion of the creek, there is
already a bridge across the creek to Ms. Keiser’s property. That section is already built out and
would not need another crossing. Tract 4 would need driveways and could stay out of the
buffer area. Ms. Keiser spoke with Teri Camery, CDD, who said that if a bridge were proposed
across the creek, it is considered an exemption from the habitat buffer requirements, such as
might pertain to Tract 2. Tract 2 homes currently have foot bridges to their properties. Ms.
Keiser suggested that possibly there be a condition that there is no new disturbance of the
buffer.
(21:03) Mr. Miller asks about the elevation change in one of the photos if the driveway were to
be relocated outside of the habitat buffer in that area. Mr. Wild answered that it is about ten
feet in elevation change in that area. Further down the driveway it becomes steeper gradually.
There already exists sufficient room at the end of the driveway for a hammer head turnaround
for emergency vehicles. Mr. Voelckers asked if this is something that already exists or if they
would show this on a plat if it is required. Mr. Olson said that if it becomes a requirement, then
they have it already. (23:50) Ms. Keiser restates that the four-lot subdivision would become a
nine-lot subdivision of lots no less than three acres in size each. The covenants state that they
cannot have two dwellings on a lot unless it is at least six acres. Under their proposal and what
the covenants allow, they would generate no more than 146 average daily trips (ADT) which is
under the 211 ADT threshold for rural privately-maintained driveways just approved in the new
subdivision rules. The 146 ADT includes one single-family dwelling along with an accessory
apartment for nine-lots. (25:09) Mr. Olson points out that three of the four lots have dual
ownership and part of the purpose of this request is to divide the interests. This would make it
easier for financing purposes or even sales. Mr. Voelckers asked if there is any discretion over
the average daily trips if they go slightly over. Ms. Boyce explains how average daily trips are
calculated. According to the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Manual utilized for trip
generation, single family homes generate 9.52 ADT, accessory apartments generate 6.65 ADT,
and single-family attached homes – like common walls (zero lot lines) – generate 6.81 ADT. This
proposal is for nine-lots and in the Rural Reserve zoning district may generate more than 211
ADT because there could be two dwellings and two accessory apartments per lot. The applicant
states that the restrictive covenants limit the subdivision to less than that. However, if this
variance is approved, a condition can be placed that would limit the trips this subdivision
generates. (28:15) Mr. Miller asked what the mechanism is to change a covenant. Ms. Boyce
stated that she believed that all owners had to agree to change it. Mr. Wild stated that there is
no provision to change their covenants as outlined in their documents attached in the
application materials. They can revoke them, but they cannot change them. Ms. Boyce said that
including a plat note would mean that any change would require review by the CDD. Ms.
McKibben stated that there is no mechanism for homeowners associations to notify the CBJ
when covenants are changed; the CBJ will not know if the covenants have been changed. Mr.
Wild stressed that their covenants do not allow for an amendment, and Ms. McKibben stated
that covenants are generally private issues that do not involve the CBJ and are not an effective
enforcement tool because the CBJ has no way of monitoring them. Mr. Miller stated that it
sounds like a condition would be best and Ms. Boyce said that also a plat note would be good
as well. Ms. Boyce said that conditioning the subdivision for less than the 211 ADT, if it were to
be approved, would somewhat be keeping with the spirit of privately maintained access roads
that were just approved in Code even though this request is not a privately maintained access
road; it would be closer to keeping with Code than approving it without this condition.
(29:45) Mr. Miller asked if a right-of-way would be required within the subdivision. Mr. Lange
answered affirmatively. Mr. Miller then said that if a right-of-way were to be platted within the
subdivision, the driveway would not necessarily have to be located in the right-of-way. He
asked if a driveway has to be within a right-of-way; a street would have to be in the right-of-
way. Mr. Lange said that the point is that the right-of-way be platted so that each proposed lot
would abut and have direct and practical access to the right-of-way. The driveway would have
to be in the right-of-way. Ms. Boyce stated that the improvement would have to be constructed
or bonded for by the time of final plat. (31:25) Ms. Keiser then points out that this is why PCLA
requested the variance for the public right-of-way and public access. Ms. Boyce stated that staff
is working on amendments to the habitat buffer section of Code to clarify when exemptions
may be made, but does not know when those changes will be considered and what activities
may be considered for waivers. Mr. Voelckers asked if there is willingness by staff to consider
this request. Ms. Boyce stated that staff will be recommending denial. The Code requires public
right-of-way access to subdivisions. The only place in Code that allows consideration of
subdivisions by easement is for remote subdivisions. This subdivision is not in a remote area.
(33:21) Mr. Voelckers stated that some research should be done to see if a right-of-way can be
recorded, but constructed at some later time. It is a classic grandfathered logic situation; it was
not done incorrectly in its time and nothing is changing. Mr. Haight stated there are reasons
that the buffer requirements exist, such as to limit debris and contaminant run off into the
stream. Mr. Haight asked how to condition this proposal so as to achieve those same goals
providing the example for how to do snow removal and driveway maintenance. Mr. Haight asks
how to apply conditions that address the intent of the buffer requirement and still maintain the
easement location. Mr. Voelckers brought up the recent ANDSOH subdivision that was
approved. Mr. Haight mentioned recent approvals along Jordan Creek.
Mr. Miller restated the three issues as he understands them: the streamside setback, the right-
of-way within the subdivision, and the right-of-way to the subdivision (the potential deal
breaker). Mr. Miller asks if it is possible to have a 40 foot right-of-way that sits on top of the
perpetual easement, and if the right-of-way can be placed over an easement. If so, that may
solve this problem, Mr. Miller stated. Mr. Voelckers asked what the functional difference is
between the driveway that exists now and a traditional right-of-way. Ms. Boyce stated that the
Code requires public access for right-of-ways and this easement is private; the public can’t
access it. Ms. Keiser said that Goldbelt land manager indicates that they are content with the
current arrangement with the easement being private, but that is not an official position from
the Goldbelt board. (39:12)Mr. Wild states that they know what the requirements are for a
right-of-way and PCLA are requesting a waiver from that requirement. He believes it is a circular
argument to require a public right-of-way for a subdivision when they do not have it, and then
CDD staff recommend denial of it; that is why they are seeking a variance to this requirement.
Mr. Wild stated that he looked for definitions for “direct and practical” access and found some
case law, but he said common sense tells you what it is stating, “You drive there, it’s direct, it’s
practical.” The purpose of frontage is to provide access to the public domain; Mr. Wild state
that PCLA has that. It is not going away, unless PCLA gives it up. Frontage is also required for
public safety purposes, and Mr. Wild notes that police can access the property. Mr. Voelckers
asked if it is gated. Mr. Wild said there is a gate, but it stands open. Mr. Wild said they are not
looking for a right-of-way, they are seeking a variance from that.
Mr. Voelckers asked if there were any final comments as he was conscious of the meeting time.
Mr. Lange pointed out that the owners invited the Planning Commissioners to visit the property
to look around and see it. Public notice requirements were discussed when three or more
Planning Commissioners meet.
(43:32) Mr. Voelckers said that the variance applicants have heard the SRC’s strategies for
trying to work with what mostly seems to be a benign proposal and thinks Mr. Haight provided
good recommendations regarding the habitat buffer.
Mr. Wild said they should not worry about the condition of Peterson Creek with the driveway
being so close to it as it has been there close to fifty years. Mr. Wild pointed out that the
stream is not an impaired water body as stated previously by staff; Peterson Creek is a pristine
stream. The owners take care of the stream: they do not plow snow into it or dump oil into it.
Mr. Voelckers then said that to further their argument, they are asking to “get more action
going in this area with more housing opportunities” with their request to which Mr. Wild then
stated that it is a few more average daily trips. Mr. Voelckers closed the item by saying that the
applicants have heard the SRC’s feedback. (44:45) Mr. Miller then asked about meeting with
the applicant and then a discussion regarding ex parte communication occurred. Being that this
is a quasi-judicial hearing, communication with the applicant is not allowed. Ms. Keiser asked
the SRC if the slide show of the driveway photos was helpful and if they should be presented at
the upcoming public hearing and was told yes. (46:03) Discussion item ended.

• Proposed two-lot subdivision of a common wall lot in Mountainside Estates
Applicant: Joanne Wiita, Andrew Gamble
Address: 1125 Timberline Court
Legal Description: Hillside View Lot 2A
Ms. Wiita submitted two applications for the proposed subdivision of the existing lot
located at 1125 Timberline Court. It’s a lot that contains a zero lot line home and the lot
shares access with two other properties. This lot, if subdivided, would share access
along the shared access easement. The applicant submitted two variances, one for the
requirement for 30 feet of frontage on a maintained right-of-way and the other for
access along a maintained right-of-way.
The applicant was told that the two variances could be combined into the same request
for a variance for frontage and direct and practical access. Another variance is needed
for lot design which was not submitted. When the applications were submitted, one of
the proposed lots met the requirements for the “minimum rectangle/Director’s
discretion” section of Code. With the new subdivision rules in place since September
30th, that section of Code no longer exists so therefore the applicant must submit a
variance for lot width. The applicant was advised that she could submit additional
information regarding her requests for the variance to frontage and access if she
Packet Page 3 of 88
wanted, but she would need to submit information addressing the six variance criteria
for the needed lot width variance.
Additionally, the SRC discussed the frontage along Timberline Court. A portion of the
existing frontage is encumbered by either the shared access easement or a utility
easement in favor of abutting neighbors. Practical access, other than by the shared
easement, isn’t really possible.
The existing shared driveway provides access to one land-locked parcel and the two zero
lot line parcels. The proposed subdivision, if approved with variances, would add
another land-locked parcel to the shared driveway. One SRC member stated that he
doesn’t see those as land-locked parcels and that the easement should be recognized as
un-land-locking the parcels, but current Code language doesn’t recognize this.
The applicant was advised to talk to the neighbors that share the access as the access
agreement would need to be revised to allow any new users along the shared driveway.
The applicant stated that she had not yet done that.
Motion Passed: That the applications should move forward to the Planning Commission
for further analysis and full discussion.

Project Description ‐ The applicants have requested the proposed Variance, VAR2015 0031 ‐ a request
to the requirement for frontage and practical access on a public right‐of‐way for the below proposed
Minor Subdivision at the end of North Douglas Highway. The applicants would like to subdivide the
four tracts, zoned Rural Reserve, into nine lots; however, they would like to do so without creating the
right‐of‐way connection to each lot. The parcels, U.S. Survey No. 1555 (USS 1555) are outside the
Urban Service and Fire Service Boundary.

USS 1555 was subdivided in 1977 into four tracts through a platting waiver. The platting waiver was
allowed through restrictive covenants for maintenance of the easement and driveway (Attachment A).
The four tracts of U.S. Survey Number 1555 (USS 1555) are located near the end of North Douglas
Highway. The tracts are accessed by an easement across Goldbelt and Sealaska land, USS 1096 shown
below, which is approximately 1,178 foot, or 0.2 mile long, and 40 foot wide (See Attachment B for
map). The current driveway width is between 10 and 14 feet.

Title 49 ‐ The applicant has applied for a variance to the following section of code regarding access to a
subdivision.
Packet Page 7 of 88

Page 4 of 3
CBJ 49.15.424(b) Publicly maintained access within a subdivision. Unless otherwise provided, all lots
must either have direct and practical access to, and a minimum of 30 feet of frontage on, the right‐of‐
way, or the minimum lot width for the zoning district or use as provided in CBJ 49.25.400.
Habitat‐ Peterson Creek is a cataloged anadromous water body and is classified as an impaired
waterbody; development along the stream is subject to habitat buffers in CBJ Title 49.70.310(a) (4) and
(b) (1), as well as at CBJ 49.70.950(f).
49.70.310 Habitat.
(a)Development in the following areas is prohibited:
(4)Within 50 feet of the banks of streams designated in Appendix B of the comprehensive
plan of the City and Borough of Juneau, 2013 Update; and
(b)In addition to the above requirements there shall be no disturbance in the following areas:
(1)Within 25 feet of stream designated in Appendix B of the comprehensive plan of the
City and Borough of Juneau, 2013 Update;
The current driveway that accesses the homes within USS 1555 is located adjacent to Peterson Creek.
In order to provide a right‐of‐way within the subdivision the new right‐of‐way location would be
required to meet the buffer requirements listed above.
Traffic ‐ With the proposed nine lot subdivision, the possible Average Daily Trips (ADT) would be
around 291 ADT. Each lot would be large enough for two single‐family detached homes with accessory
apartments. ADT for a single‐family home is 9.52 and 6.65 ADT for an accessory apartment. The
current gravel driveway requirements are for a 20 foot wide gravel drive, a privately‐maintained access
road in a public right‐of‐way that cannot exceed 211 ADT. For a development that would generate 212
to 499 ADT, the roadway construction standards found in Title 49 would require a paved 24 foot
roadway with one sidewalk and with a right‐of‐way width of 60 feet.
Issues
Right‐of‐way frontage – The current lots are accessed via an easement from North Douglas Highway to
USS 1555. The easement is over Goldbelt/Sealaska land. The new subdivision would be required to
have frontage on a right‐of‐way. The right‐of‐way would be required to extend to North Douglas
Highway through Goldbelt/Sealaska land. The applicant has stated that the public access road would
not be allowed across the Goldbelt/Sealaska land through the current easement agreement.
Driveway adjacent to anadromous stream – The driveway to USS 1555 would be required to be
improved, but portions of the driveway are within the no disturbance and no development buffers of
an anadromous stream. If a right‐of‐way was platted through the subdivision, it would need to meet
the buffer requirements. The option to vary from the streamside buffer requirement is currently not
available.

Additional Information
Site Visit ‐ The applicant has suggested it would beneficial for Planning Commissioners to visit the site
to become more familiar with the area and subdivision layout. She has suggested and has made
herself available for any interested Planning Commissioners to visit the site on Saturday or Sunday,
November 21st or 22nd, from 10am to 3pm. The applicant could meet the Commissioners at the
driveway to the subdivision at the end of North Douglas Highway and walk or orient the
Commissioners along the driveway and through the subdivision. The applicant can be reached at 907‐
723‐4003 to meet Commissioners at the end of North Douglas Highway.
Staff will poll the Planning Commissioners at the November 10th regular Planning Commission meeting
and see who is interested in a site visit. If three or more Commissioners will be at the site at the same
time public notice will be required.

WHY WOULD A VARIANCE BE NEEDED FOR THIS PROPERTY REGARDLESS OF THE
OWNER?
The lot frontage and direct and practical access to a public ROW are design requirements for a subdivision. regardless of
landownership.
WHAT HARDSHIP WOULD RESULT IF THE VARIANCE WERE NOT GRANTED?
The USS 1555 landowners would be unable to proceed with a minor subdivision. Existing and future landowners will experience
difficulties in financing improvements and real estate transactions because of non-traditional, multiple landownership of the existing
large lots. Some owners would be unable to create additional residential lols on undeveloped portions of their existing lots.

CBJ Board of Adjustment
Community Dev. Dept. Staff
Subject: Request for Variance to the Requirements for Lot Frontage on and Direct and
Practical Access to a Public Right of Way
Dear Members and Staff
This letter provides background and an explanation for a variance request by the
landowners of U.S. Survey 1555 (near Outer Point, Douglas Is.) who will propose a minor
subdivision to create nine lots out of the existing four lots (Tracts 1- 4) in USS 1555 (Attachment
1). I am writing on behalf of my fellow landowners.
As an initial step preceding a minor subdivision application, the USS 1555 landowners
request a variance to the requirements that all lots have at least 30 feet of frontage on and
have direct and practical access to a dedicated right of way. These requirements are found at
CBJ 49.15.424(b} in the recently adopted CBJ Ordinance 2015-03, which replaces the former
requirement at CBJ 49.15.460 (5) and 49.40.120.
The lots in USS 1555 do not front on a dedicated right of way but are accessible to the
North Douglas Highway via a private driveway of about 0.6 miles. See general area map
(Attachment 2). We believe that our privately-maintained driveway in private easements,
which are owned in common by the USS 1555 landowners, provides direct and practical access
to the North Douglas Highway from each lot in USS 1555.
It is prudent to resolve this access issue first before incurring substantial expenses
associated with a formal subdivision application.
Background
USS 1555 and the last few hundred feet of North Douglas Highway and a driveway
connecting the Survey to the highway were all at one time part of a 140-acre homestead
identified as Homestead Entry No. 75, later renamed USS 1096. The homesteader, Fred
Peterson, applied in 1913 for patent on 34.56 acres of the 140 acres. The USS 1555 was
surveyed out of USS 1096 and platted in 1925. The surveyor noted that no trails or roads
traversed these surveys and that Juneau, the nearest post office and source of supplies, was
Packet Page 17 of 88
Variance Application
U. S. Survey 1555 Page 2
located about 15 miles southeast by water travel. In 1930 Mr. Peterson was granted title and
patent to USS 1555, and USS 1096 remained in the public domain.
In 1946, Mr. Peterson sold USS 1555 to George Ledbetter, who in turn sold it to Stock
and Grove, Inc. in 1965. The North Douglas road was extended to its present terminus at that
time. The U.S. Forest Service in 1968 granted an easement to Stock and Grove which
constructed a private roadway in a 40 foot wide corridor through USS 1096 to connect USS
1
1555 to the North Douglas Highway. At the same time, the company also built the driveway
through USS 1555 to the beachfront opposite Shaman Island at Fritz Cove.
Stock and Grove, Inc. sold USS 1555 in 1977 to Mr. Jerry Kressin and others, and the new
owners applied to CBJ to subdivide USS 1555. The landowners requested a platting waiver of
the public access requirement on the basis that they had an easement from the USFS in USS
1096 and that guaranteed access for the USS 1555 landowners would be written into restrictive
covenants. The 1977 CBJ Platting Board considered several issues: property owners should have
access to their individual lots at all times, the lots would not front on a public access but would
be accessed by a driveway in a USFS easement, the nature of that USFS easement, the 40- foot
corridor through USS 1096 could not be expanded to 60 feet to meet CBJ standards, the
possibility of dedicating a right-of-way but not building a road at the time and the potential that
in the future CBJ would have to construct and maintain a dedicated road, the lack of flexibility
in the subdivision code to address rural subdivisions like USS 1555, and that the landowners
favored private (not public) access to the Survey Attachment 3 provides minutes from Planning
Commission meetings on 9/26/1977 and 11/14/1977.
The Platting Board believed if there was to be any future subdivision of USS 1555 the
matter would have to come back before the body. They approved the waiver on a 7 to 1 vote
in late 1977, provided that restrictive covenants were placed on the property. The Declaration
and Establishment of Restrictive Covenents (sic) for U.S. Survey 1555 established the Peterson
Creek Landowners Association ("PCLA") in 1978 and provided for access and maintenance of
the common driveway through USS 1555 to each lot (Attachment 4). The restrictive covenants
also provide landowners a way to deal with third parties. With the restrictive covenants, the
34-acre Survey was then subdivided into the four 8 to 9-acre tracts that still exist today.
Conditions of CBJ code governing waivers at the time limited the subdivision to no more than
four parcels, each being at least five acres in size. The PCLA has operated for 37 years and is
governed by bylaws and an elected Board of Directors, and is registered as a Domestic
Nonprofit Corporation with the State of Alaska.
1
The USFS chose to administer the easement under a special use permit that facilitated annual
review to ensure that the roadway was being maintained.

U. S. Survey 1555 Page 3
In 1978, native corporations selected a portion of USS 1096 that included the driveway
to USS 1555. Goldbelt, Inc. opposed granting an easement to USS 1555 landowners. Despite
USS 1555 landowners' request, the BLM did not support the easement when the conveyance to
Goldbelt took place in the early 1980s because the agency said there was no existing use by the
public; rather it was being used as private access to private property. Subsequently, the PCLA
entered into a rental agreement with Gold belt for continued use of the driveway.
In 1991 a supplemental plat for USS 1096 was recorded that showed its subdivision into
Lots 1, 2 and 3, and the segregation of USS 1555. Gold belt and Sealaska have title to the surface
and subsurface of Lot 3, a 75-acre parcel of land on which North Douglas Highway ends and the
private driveway to USS 1555 begins. The State of Alaska owns Lots 1 and 2. Thus, USS 1555
abuts native land, State land, CBJ land (north of a portion of Tract 4, USS 1555), and beachfront
at Fritz Cove near Shaman Island (Attachment 5).
The USS 1555 landowners sought to recover a permanent easement from USS 1555 to
the North Douglas Highway (as originally granted by the USFS through USS 1096 in 1968). In
2003 the PCLA landowners purchased from the native corporations permanent easement rights
to a 40-foot wide corridor through USS 1096 along the existing driveway. This easement can be
extinguished only if a single party becomes the owner of the dominant and servient estates, the
PCLA releases the easement in favor of Goldbelt and Sealaska, or the easement is abandoned
by the PCLA. Since 2003, the PCLA pays for an insurance policy to hold the native corporations
harmless for any claims associated with use of the easement. To date, no claims have been
made (Attachment 6).
Thus, the extraordinary situation affecting USS 1555 is the longstanding existence and
successful use of a private access to the property more than 1/2 mile from a public ROW. The
private driveway has provided access from the North Douglas Highway to and through USS
1555 since 1968. Private landowners have diligently maintained the driveway through USS 1096
and USS 1555 at their own expense for nearly 50 years. The maintenance, annual charge
assessment, and common ownership have been ably managed by the Peterson Creek
Landowners Assn since 1978 - nearly 40 years. The private driveway provides direct and
practical access from North Douglas Highway to each lot for residents' vehicles, their guests,
and service trucks (for deliveries of heating fuel, propane, construction materials, furniture,
concrete & gravel, etc.). The neighborhood has functioned as a self-reliant community, as the
CBJ has not provided public services (water, sewer, road, or school bus transportation) to USS
1555. There are no public utilities in the easements accessing USS 1555. The Survey also lies
outside the borough's fire protection service area.
Packet Page 19 of 88
Variance Application
U. S. Survey 1555 Page4
Practical Difficulties
The practical difficulties that arise in this instance would be the unnecessary and
unwarranted construction of a public ROW from North Douglas Highway to access lots within
USS 1555. A direct and practical access, albeit private, already exists to the lots in this Survey. It
is not economically reasonable, environmentally advantageous, or topographically warranted
to require a new road.
The private easement through USS 1096 does not allow for a public access road. Thus, it
is pertinent to ask what it would take to build a public access road from the North Douglas
Highway to and through USS 1555. If one examines the terrain in USS 1096 and nearby land to
the east, there is no significant topographic, environmental, or zoning difference between the
location of the existing driveway in Lot 3, USS 1096 and an alternative route along a section line
to the east that borders State land (USS 1096, Lot 2), CBJ land and Goldbelt/Sealaska land (USS
1096, Lot 3) (Attachment 5). Goldbelt has posted its property in this area. A driveway built
along this alternate route would leave the North Douglas Highway at about where the "End of
Road 1000 feet" sign is presently located. The route would go west through forested wetlands
and meet USS 1555 at about the eastern common corner of Tracts 1 and 2. The total distance
could be about 1500 feet. Wh ile the State land includes an easement along its portion of the
section line, it would be necessary to purchase a public easement from CBJ or Goldbelt along
their border with the section line. This alternative access was analyzed and deemed unrealistic
by the parties when PCLA negotiated purchase of the easement through USS 1096 from
Goldbelt and Sealaska in 2003. 2
New road wou ld also have to be built within USS 1555 to access each lot. Given the
current layout of Tracts 1-4, a new road would likely consume a lot of land within the Survey. It
may require additional construction of personal driveways. The present location of about 0.25
mile of the existing driveway t hrough USS 1555 is adjacent to Peterson Creek. This portion of
the driveway would likely have to be abandoned as it would be unacceptable as a public access
route under CBJ code that requires a SO-foot setback from an anadromous fish stream. Federal
wetlands permitting may also be difficult because of the potential surface disturbance and
likely environmental degradation in the Peterson Creek drainage that could be avoided.
2
This route was also examined earlier in 1977 when subdivision occurred and by CBJ in
correspondence with USS 1555 landowners in 1987.
Packet Page 20 of 88
Variance Application
U.S. Survey 1555 Page 5
As a practical matter, building a new public access is unjustified when a perfectly
adequate driveway is already in place. The existing driveway works well! The USS 1555
landowners have a functional neighborhood association with a longstanding "track record" of
driveway maintenance.
Hardship
If the variance is not granted, the alternative of a public access built to CBJ Street
standards w ill not happen because it is neither practicable nor desirable. Without the variance,
several hardships would occur. A minor subdivision will not occur, and existing and future
landowners will experience difficulties in financing improvements and real estate transactions
because of non-traditional, multiple landownerships of the existing large lots. Also, the owners
of Tracts 1 and 4 would not be able to create additional residential lots on undeveloped and
buildable portions of their existing parcels. This reduces market valuations for landowners and
also depresses property assessments that affect the borough's tax revenues. These hardships
run counter to an underlying purpose of Title 49 which is to recognize the economic value of
land and encourage its proper and beneficial use (CBJ 49.05.100(6)).
Variance Approval Criteria
The variance request meets the following criteria specified in the land use code:
1.) The relaxation applied for or a lesser relaxation would give substantial relief to
property owners involved and be more consistent with justice to other property
owners.
Yes. Granting the variance would provide substantial relief as it would allow the USS 1555
landowners to proceed with a minor subdivision application that includes continued use of the
private access driveway. Subdividing the existing four large tracts would provide substantial
relief to the landowners in the nature of simplified ownership of home sites. Owners would be
able to create and sell additional buildable lots from their large tracts. We believe we can meet
all other requirements for a m inor subdivision. Absent the variance, the USS 1555 landowners
would be unable to meet the dedicated right of way requirement and further subdivision would
not occur.
Also, retaining the private access under a new minor subdivision would be more consistent
with the limited, non-public access purchased in the private easement from Goldbelt and
Packet Page 21 of 88
Variance Application
U.S. Survey 1555 Page 6
Sealaska across their adjacent property in USS 1096. The private nature of the easement helps
minimize trespass issues on their land in this area.
2.) Relief can be granted in such a fashion that the intent of this title will be observed and
the public safety and welfare preserved.
Yes. The relief requested would allow the continuation of a private access to and through
USS 1555 as a feature of a proposed minor subdivision. The private maintenance of the existing
driveway by a fully-functional landowners association since 1978 clearly has met the conditions
of the original platting waiver in 1977. Significantly, the well-established PCLA, commonly held
driveway and annual maintenance charge to USS 1555 landowners, and liability insurance
policy satisfy the intent of the recently adopted subdivision code, particularly the directions
embodied in CBJ 49.15.430- 435 for privately-maintained driveways.
Granting the variance request does not raise public safety issues because the public does
not now use nor wou ld be able in the future to use the private access across USS 1096 and
through USS 1555. The PCLA's experience has been that the general public respects the
"private property" posting and gating of the existing driveway. The community's welfare is
preserved because a private access driveway to a rural residential subdivision in USS 1555 does
not interfere with the public's current and future use of nearby trails and adjacent public lands
for recreation. With respect to CBJ's efficient and economical maintenance of public roads, the
community's welfare would be well served by granting the variance and not requiring the
dedication of an isolated public ROW near Outer Point when the nearest CBJ-maintained
streets are about four m iles away at Bay View Subdivision.
3.) The authorization of the variance will not injure nearby property.
Yes. Authorizing the variance would enable USS 1555 landowners to maintain the private
access as they proceed with a minor subdivision that breaks large 8 to 9-acre parcels into still
relatively large 3 to 4-acre lots. The private easement across a portion of USS 1096, owned by
Goldbelt and Sealaska, would experience a relatively modest increase in Average Daily Traffic
3
when the proposed additional lots in USS 1555 were developed. However, keeping this access
private would maintain the status quo of no public use of the driveway. The variance would
have no effect on this easement as it does not prevent use of this driveway by the Goldbelt Inc.
or Sealaska to access their property adjacent to USS 1555.
3
Under CBJ calculations, nine lots with single-family homes would generate 86 ADT. If all homes had accessory
apartments, and additional 60 ADT would lead to a total of 146 ADT for the USS lSSS subdivision.
Packet Page 22 of 88
Variance Application
U. S. Survey 1555 Page 7
Maintaining private access as a result of granting the variance would not injure adjacent
State of Alaska (Lots 1 and 2, USS 1096) and nearby CBJ property. These public lands are not
accessible from USS 1555 or its driveway. The CBJ property has waterfront access, as does the
State remnant Lot 1, USS 1096. State-owned Lot 2 is accessible along the section line to the
North Douglas Hwy. Maintaining private access on the subject driveway would continue to
"protect" these adjacent lands from potential trespass and policing issues that might arise if it
were made a public ROW.
Further, USS 1555 extends to the waterfront and as such does not "land lock" any adjacent
property. The access driveway to lots within USS 1555 is completely internal to the survey and
does not abut any adjacent property whose future development would be negatively impacted
by granting this variance.
4.) The variance does not authorize uses not allowed in the district involved.
Yes. The proposed land use is residential which is the same as the existing land use
approved under Plat 78-25W and allowed in the Rural Reserve zoning district. Also, the
Restrictive Covenants governing USS 1555 restrict uses to residential and recreational purposes.
5.) Compliance with the existing standards would:
(A) Unreasonably prevent the owners from using the property for a permissible
principal use.
The owners could use the property for permissible purposes but would not be able
to attain financing for improvements or real estate transactions. We believe it is
unreasonable to hinder the full potential build-out and valuation of USS 1555.
(B) Unreasonably prevent the owners from using the property in a manner which is
consistent as to scale, amenities, appearance or features, with existing
development in the neighborhood of the subject property.
The owners can continue to use the property in a rural residential manner, w hich is
consistent with neighboring undeveloped Goldbelt property and public lands used
for recreation.
Packet Page 23 of 88
Variance Application
U.S. Survey 1555 Page 8
(C} Be unnecessarily burdensome because unique physical features of the property
render compliance with the standard unreasonably expensive.
Yes. The unique physical feature of USS 1555 is Peterson Creek and particularly its
location in relation to the existing driveway. Peterson Creek is a catalogued anadromous fish
stream with populations of Coho, chum, and pink salmon, Dolly Varden and cutthroat trout. To
comply with CBJ's public ROW requirement and the 50 foot setback requirement from an
anadromous fish stream would essentially mean construction of a new road and driveways
through much of USS 1555. This would be a substantial financial burden to USS 1555
landowners. The amount of disturbance could also have detrimental environmental effects on
Peterson Creek itself from road construction activity, runoff, etc.
(D) Because of pre-existing nonconforming conditions on the subject parcel, the grant
of the variance would not result in a net decrease in the overall compliance with
the land use code.
Yes. The USS 1555 landowners were granted a waiver of the public access requirement in
1977 leading to the original subdivision into four tracts. That nonconforming condition of a
private access has not changed since then. Granting a variance today to this same public access
requirement for this same private driveway would not change the Surveys overall compliance
with the land use code.
6.) A grant of the variance would result in more benefits than detriments to the
neighborhood.
Yes. The neighborhood would enjoy benefits from the granting of this variance as it would
remove a current obstacle to further subdivision of USS 1555. Uncoupling the multiple
landownerships of the existing lots would ease individuals' ability to the finance property
improvements to the overall benefit of the neighborhood. A few additional lots would increase
neighborhood association membership to share the costs and effort for driveway maintenance.
The modest population increase generated by creating new buildable lots is not viewed as a
detriment to the neighborhood or nearby property.
In conclusion, just as occurred in 1977 under the then CBJ land use code, a variance to
the public access requirement is needed in order to further subdivide USS 1555 today,

regardless of who owns these properties. The history of this survey from its days as a
homestead entry and its relative isolation in the borough outside urban services has fostered a
neighborhood that values this quiet, rural pocket and has demonstrated its ability to maintain
its privacy and private access. A variance that allows us to proceed with a minor subdivision
helps to ensure the continued vitality of this rural neighborhood by simplifying landownership
and associated financial transactions and bringing new landowners onto currently underutilized
and buildable land.
Beyond the immediate landow nership interests, denying the variance would result in a
broader hardship best described as a missed opportunity to facilitate a diversity of housing
choices in Juneau. The rural lifestyle in unusual corners of the borough such as USS 1555
appeals to some, particularly younger people who want to carve out a modern-day home site
off the beaten path. The current residents have owned their USS 1555 property for 20 or more
years, and jumped at the chance to own and build here. Granting the variance would lead to
the splitting of the large lots in USS 1555 into more financially manageable parcels that
simplifies and facilitates the entry of a few more adventurous people into this exceptional
neighborhood without changing its underlying self-reliant and private character.
Thank you for your time and attention to this variance request.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
Regular Meeting
September 26, 1977
The regular meeting of the Planning and Zoning Corranission was called
to order by Chairman Kay Diebels at 7:30 P.M. on Monday, September 26,
1977 in the Assembly Chambers of the Municipal Building with the
following roll noted:
Present: Diebels, Menzies, Minch, Triplette, Gorsuch, Quinn and Grant
Absent: Beadle and Shelley. Mr. Menzies moved to excuse Mr. Beadle
and Mr. Shelley . Seconded by Mr. Triplette.
There was no objection in excusing both Commissioners.
Staff Present: Steve Gilbertson and Tim Maguire
Approval of Minutes
September 12, 1977 - Page 4; second paragraph "highest to the Commission"
was deleted, so the whole sentence reads; "This was discussed and it was
also pointed out that ..if the zone change is approved, the applicant would
not be committed to any plan but could still develop the property to the
utmost density allowed by that zoning" .
Mr. Menzies moved for approval of the minutes as corrected. Seconded
by Mrs. Gorsuch. There was no objection in approving the minutes as
corrected.
September 14, 1977 Special Meeting
Page 4 - The conclusion was included in last paragraph and the
wording ,was slightly changed t read;
Mr. Menzies expressed a concern tha such a classification might stop
efforts for a transportation corr· or in that area . Mr. Hartenberger
noted this as one of the reason the staff did not analyze those areas.
Another reason is that it is tside the political jurisdiction of the
City and Borough. It is als under study now with South East Transpor
tation Study. The Commiss· n might want to recommend that the Assembly
solicite comments from t Haines Borough and then encourage the
Assembly to make a rec endation after those comments have been received.
It was requested by M. Menzies that the staff contact the Haines Borough
immediately to see· they have done anything on those areas, and relate
the comments to bo ' the Commission and the Assembly. Mr. Hartenberger
stated that hew ld convey the Commission's concerns over the Endicott
River and St. es Bay areas. The Commission would like a wilderness
designation _f r these two (2) areas as long as future transportation
corridor is rovided for. Mr. Triplette noted he would not want to do
anything t a t might jeopardize a transportation corridor in that area.
such moved for approval of the minutes as corrected. Seconded
by Mr Menzies. There was no objection in accepting the minutes as
con; cted.

Mr. Menzies asked if the dome use met all setbacks? Mr. Maguire answered
Yes .
Being that there was no lie participation, the public hearing was closed.
Mr. Menzies moved fo approval. Seconded by Mr. Grant.
Mr. Menzies ft his chair at this time.
Waiver, u.s.s. 1555, Outer Point, Douglas Island
The staff report was given by Tim Maguire. The owner of u.s . s. 1555 is
requesting a platting waiver to subdivide this 34.66 acre parcel into 4
lots; two lots containing 8 acres and 2 lots containing 9.3 acres. The
location of this property is 13.5 mile North Douglas Highway. It is
surrounded by U.S. Forest Service land on three sides and by water on the
fourth. The applicant is requesting that a variance be granted to the
ordinance requirement _ that each lot within a subdivision abut a dedicated
roadway . The reasons 'given are the relative isolation of the parcel and
the unlikelihood that the road will be maintained by the City and Borough.
Two alternatives for access have been proposed. The first would be a 60
foot access easement extending the length of the southwesterly property
----- line. All lots would be provided access to the water through this easement .
The second access proposal would continue the Forest Serv._i ce easement,
which extends from the highway to the property boundary, through the length
of U.S.S. 1555. The zone is R-40. The Recommendation is denial.
The staff would recommend denial of the platting waiver because the
newly-created lots would not be provided with adequate access according
to the-· subdivi si6n ordinance. Providing proper access is a key to sound
community development. It not only assures the property owner of access
to this property, but also guarantees access for fire, police and other
service vehicles. Since the existing, maintained roadway already runs in
fairly close proximity to the above-mentioned parcel, the argument of
isolation does not pertain . If a roadway were constructed to this parcel,
i t would be maintained.
Mr. Monti Brice, Attorney,made the presentation for the applicants,
Jerry E . Kressin and Lorily Brice Kressin. He began by stating that the
appl_icants are in disagreement with the rationale behind the recommendations
for the waiver, being that adequate access is not provided . He felt that
this was misleading, that there is a road which extends from the North
Douglas Highway to the property . They propose to form a land owners
association, comprising of the owners of the four (4) tracts, to run with
the land, where all the owners of the property would share the right to
the access. The land owners association would be granted a permanent ease
ment ( appurtenant) to the land by deed . The staff's concern was that an
easement cannot be permanent, that it can be extinguished, but under these
conditions, that it is unlikely such an easement would be extinquished.
-5-
Packet Page 31 of 88
Mr. Brice then listed the possible ways this type of easement could be
extinguished.
The first situation is where the dominant and serviant tenants come under
the same ownership of the same parcel. An easement would not be required
because the owner would only travel over his property . Another possible
applicable situation where it could be extinguished is where the dominant
tenant executes either a deed or will releasing the easement. In extin
guishing it by deed or will would require all of the tenants to agree.
Another method would be when a dominant tenant has abandoned the easement.
This would be unlikely because these are proposed homesites and this would
require the agreement of all parties. Another method would be when the
tenant has used his land continuously and uninteruptedly for the staturatory
period of prescription, meaning it would be an adverse possession, but it
would be improbably because if a tenant were to block off the easement,
they would have to do so for a period of seven years, without permission
of other tenants. Tracts 2,3, and 4 would require access and it ' s impro
bable that all three of them would abandon that access for a period of
seven years.
In summary, Mr. Brice -,felt that these are the only means that can extinquish
this type of easement . Although it is unlikely that it will happen. A
special use permit was referred which guarantees access across the Forest
Service land . He stated it was a permanent conditional easement. It is
transferable to any property owner by issuing a new permit . Conditions
basically consist of one promise that is not to remove Forest Service timber
except for maintenance, and pay fee .
If an easement was not extinquished, there is a principle of law called
"easement by necessity", which occurs on a landlocked tract .
Mr. Brice felt that staff was interpreting the ordinance in terms of
adequate access meaning no possibility that access can be denied. He felt
that this was not necessary. He also gave a brief background on the plans
submitted by Mr. and Mrs. Kressin. If the waiver is denied, the alternatives
would be the current owners would have to sell it to somebody else .
Mr. Triplette asked why the owner did not want a road in the subject area?
Mr. Brice replied because they want it as a private road and not as a
public road to be shared by property owners.
Richard Erickson, Realtor for Alaska Coastal Real Estate, answered
Mr. Triplette's question about the roadway, that the permit specifies a
40 ft. roadway and it would be impossible to go by Borough's regulatory
right-of-way . Mr. Triplette again asked if it would be acceptable if the
roadway was built up to Borough ' s standard? Mr . Maguire answered, that
there was still the question of how to make this a more permanent access
to the property, but the main concern was there are no plans for permanent
access to the new lots. The City and Borough attorney felt that possible
something cou-l d be worked out with Forest Service for access. Mr . Minch
asked if it would be possible to get a wider easement from the Forest
Service? Mr. Erickson said it would be impossible. Mr. Erickson asked
the Commis~ion, if the road was brought up to standard, would the City and
Borough maintain ' the road .
-6-
Packet Page 32 of 88
Mr. Maguire stated that he has talked to Mr. Art Morrison.of the Public
Works Department. If the road were brought up to community standard, they
would be required to maintain it.
Mrs . Gorsuch asked if the applicants were concerned with fire and other
safety problems. Mr . Erickson stated they were not.
Mr . Lance Younquist commented saying that the problem is the area in
a gray area, and there are not clear cut answers . The economics don't
allow for building of the road to these lots . Mrs. Diebels suggested
that possibly the road could be dedicated but not built at this time.
Being that there was no other public participation, the public hearing was
closed .
Mr . Minch moved to continue this item until the applicants get together
with the staff for a better solution . Mrs. Gorsuch seconded the motion.
Mrs. Diebels noted that she was also in favor of the motion to continue
this.
There was no objection in continuing this item .
Mr. Menzies resumed his chair at this time .
Waiver, portion of U. S . M.S . 341-A and 341-B,
Mr . Maguire added an i ,tem that was not included on the agenda at this time
on Waiver, portion of u.s.M . S. 341-A and 341-B, Laws Creek. This item
was discussed during the September 12, 1977 Plannin Commission Meeting.
The reason this item was continued was that as a question concerning
of how off-street parking would be provided lots. This was clarified .
The Commission had no objection. ·
Mr. Minch moved for approval of the waiver as presented . Seconded by Mr .
Grant . There was no objection and the moti passed unanimously.
Planning Director's Report
Auke Bay Campus Master Plan - Mr . stated that Mr. Bolton is
preparing an analysis of the Auke Master Plan . This plan will
be reviewed at the next meeting.
Southeast Conference - Mr. Gilber on mentioned that the City and Borough
will be attending this conferenc on October 14, 1977 and he wishes to know
if there is any particular iss s that the Commission may wish to develop
policy statements on. The Co ission mentioned two important items that
should be included; Fisherie Rehabilitation and Coastal Zone Management.
They are also interested i all land use management proposals.

Mr . Gilbertson n ted that at the September 15, 1977 Assembly meeting,
the Assembly m t i oned the need to review the zoning requirements to
det7rmin7 the ad~is~bili~y of having a single-family residential
~esignation •. This is being brought to the Planning Commission to determine
if they ar interested in reviewing the matter. Mr. Menzies suggested for

Waiver, U. S . S. 1555 Outerpoint, North Douglas
The staff report was given by Mr . Hartenberger. Maps were also made
available.
At the September 26, 1977 meeting of the Planning Commission, the
Platting Board moved to continue action on the request to subdivide
U.S.S. 1555 into 4 lots . Concern was expressed over the proposed
access for these newly created lots and it was recommended that staff
and the applicants discuss alternative solutions to the problem .
An alternative desi~n was brought to the Subdivision Review Committee
in which a 60 foot right-of-way would be dedicated for access to each
lot , but would not be constructed at this time . The applicant have
since dropped this concept for the reasons given in the attached letter .
They wish to subdivide these four lots by waiver, and either provide
access by easement or by water. The zone is R- 40 and _the recommenda
tion is denial . Since this proposal is basically identical to the
earlier submittal discussed by the Platting Board at its September 27th
meeting, it was the staff's opinion at that time that adequate access
was not being provided for these lots and that this proposed subdivision
should meet all platting requirements. It is thought that this area
will be a prime area for future community expansion and that proper
access is a key to sound community development . It not only assures the
property owner of access to his property, but also guarantees access
for fire, oolice and other service vehicles.
A letter from Mr. Lance Youngquist of Alaska Coastal Real Estate
was included in the staff report.
Mr. Youngquist representing the applicant made himself available
for questions. ~r . Minch asked Mr. Youngquist concerning the
sketch, if the aoplicant is suggesting that the Commission approve the
~tetch showing all 4 lots having access to the water . Mr. Youngquist
replied, the applicant would like to have this approved if i~ fact
alternate sketch was not accepted.
There wePe no further questions for Mr. Youngquist.

Packet Page 35 of 88
Mr. Monti Brice, recalled some of the discussi on and comments that
were made during the Septembe r 27th meeting, one of them being the
fact that the property is surround ed on one side by water and
three sides by Forest Service land . He also quoted from the U.S.
Statute in Title 16, Section 478 which guarante es access to property
on which settlers are living through forest service land.
"Nothing in this chapter shall prohibit the egress or ingress of actual
settlers residing within the boundari es of National Forest from crossing
in to and from the property or homes and such roads and other improve
ments may be construc ted there as necessar y and to utilize their pro
perty under such rules and regulati ons as maybe ~rescrib ed by the
Secretar y of Agricul ture, nor shall anything herein prohibit any persons
from entering upon such national forest for all proper and lawful pur
poses ''. "So in essence, what we've got is a guarante ed access by U.S.
stature on sides (as shown} through Forest Service land and from the
water side". states, Mr. Brice. There really is no problem of access
plus the easement factor that was discusse d at the last meeting.
Mr. Triplett e asked if he has talked with Forest Service before? Mr.
Youngqu ist replied that he has talked with them and they basicall y
stated that an access cannot be denied. By virtue of an existing permit,
there is a road built, roughly running down the center of the
property touching on all four proposed lots. The Forest Service cannot
deny access by use -~f that existing roadway, unless there is a total
misuse of the roadway.
Mr . Triplett e asked how they would proceed with the people getting into
the lots? Mr. Brice answered , by virtue of the existing lots and
in
if t~is is approved , the applican t intends to purchase the property Quinn
which he will grant easement s to those people using the road. ~r.
asked if this was called a ~erpetua l easemen t? Mr. Brice replied~ it is
a granted easement by deed or necessit y, but there is a concept ease
ment by necessit y by which a piece of property is landlock ed by which
there is no other practica l means of transpor ting himself and his
belongin gs to . his property .
Mr. Menzies pointed out that the Native L~nd Selectio ns selected all
of the surround ing lands and asked if Mr. Brice or Mr. Youngqu ist have
talked with Forest Service about this. Would they have to provide
access prior to giving up the land to the Natives surround ing
this area? Mr. Brice answered , to his understa nding they could not
transfer the current means of access now.
Mr. ~enzies asked Chairman Oiebels if he could be excused during this
discussi on due to a possible conflict of interest .
Mr . Minch moved to excuse Mr. Menzies on the basis that he's declared
a conflict of interest . Seconded by Mr . Beadle.
Mr. Minch felt that since Mr. Menzies did not do aoy work regardin g
this item that there was no conflict of interest . It was not
connecte d with the waiver that is being requeste d for. Mrs. Gorsuch
agreed wtth Mr. Minch. In this regard, the roll was called for
approva l. Mr. Menzies also abstaine d from the vote.

The motion failed with {7-0) vote . Mr. ~enzies returned to his seat.
Mr. Jerry Cressen, applicant. stated that there would still be Forest
Land even if the Natives selected their lands. Mr. Hartenberger said
that Goldbelt will be involved in this area along with City~ Borough .
Some of the land might be available for private or public development .
There might be some ownership changes that may occur .
Mr . Brice stated that they have not discussed this at all with Golbelt.
Regardless of who takes the surrounding property in the future, who ever
it is will still take it subject to the existing easement or permit .
Mrs. Gorsuch commented by asking if in fact the waiver was not granted
and the applicant was required to build a road, is there a requirement
that rather than building the road, that the right-of-way could be
dedicated for a road but it not constructed and not maintained? Mr .
Hartenberger replied, this was done in many cases and that is one way to
protect future access needs . It is possible that those lots will be
resubdivided in the future and that the Commission needs to decide
whether to treat this as a typical subdivision . If not, then this can
be wa i vered.
Mr. Triplette asked Mr. Brice why he did not want to have olatted access
whether there would be a road or not? Mr. Brice reolied, the applicant
wants property that is somewhat secluded . ·
Mr . ~artenberger commented, that from tfme to time th~ property owners
may agree or disagree about access. and it becomes a p~tential problem.
One of staff's concern is that this area could be resubdivided again.
If the Commission wants to consider this, then we need to begin to
identify other areas in the City and Borough and either we go with
these waivers or develop a new portion of the subdivision ordinance,
dea1·ing specifically with this type of problem.
Mr. Menzies stated that he is familiar with the land in question.
He stated that the alternate planning on this is, you are giving
each lot access from the water. Mr . Menzies then asked Mr. Cressin
what he would think of a right-of-way on both sides and connecting
this right-of-way to the existing road? Mr . Cressin answered. all they
would need is a foot path. ~r. Menzies also asked if it is possible
for Mr. Brice to write deeds of conveyance stating that each of the
tracts has the right to use a travel way that is already existing.
Mr. Brice answered, yes, that can be written in the deed .
Mr . Hartenberger brought up a concern from the staff's standpoint, that
the North . Douglas Plan was adopted by policy by the Assembly to
try to allocate the different uses of the waterfront as well as the
upland areas . Outer Point was designated as a orime recreational area
for both either public or private recreation . Mr . "enzies added the
plan was developed for a boat harbor and a subdivision that was not
carried through and was brought up again 2 years ago .

There were no other public participants, the public hearing was closed .
Mr . Minch moved to grant the waiver based on the sketch not showing the
20 foot strips. Mr. Beadle seconded the motion.
Mr. Minch speaking in favor of his motion added saying that since any
future develooment will have to come back and will have to comply with
the ordinance that we are in good shape in terms of control over this
development of these 4 tracts in the future.
Mrs. Gorsuch stated she has talked with ~r. Hartenberger regarding this
matter dealing with concept of rural subdivision and this kind of
situation. These outlined areas will come before the Commission again
in the future . At the present time there isn't enough flexibility in
the Subdivision Ordinance. The population density should be considered.
Mr. Menzies asked Mr. Brice about the present roadway . Could he also
write in the deed that it is the responsibility of only the applicant
to commonly maintain the roadway? Mr. Brice agreed that this will be
written in the deed . Mr . Menzies also asked if there will be some
type of land owner corporation that will deal singularly with the
Forest Service? Mr. Cressin answered it will be a recreational corpora
tion, so they will ' be dealing with Forest Service .
Mr . Beadle stated that he will vote for this motion if it will be
written in the deed that access will be guaranteed from the North Douglas
Highway to all lots . Mr. Brice agreed . Mr. Cressin stated that he will
be sharing the deed legally .
Mr. Minch moved to amend his motion that in the written subdivision
waiver deed description, each of the four (4) tracts will have common
usage of the existing constructed roadway through the entire US survey
and that a group will be formed to deal singularly with the Forest
Ser~ice for trrat portion of the road from North Douglas to the US
survey.
Mr . Shelley seconded the motion to the amendment.
Roll call for approval was recorded as follows:
Ayes: Triplette, Minch , Menzies, Beadle, Quin, Gorsuch and Shelley
Nays : Diebels
The motion passed with (7-1) vote .
There were no objections to the main motion.

Hi Laura & Jonathan - thanks for info provided to SRC. Please don't refer to our request as "Keiser
Subdivision" as it's more than me. I'd rather not have my name attached to the subdivision. :-) It's Peterson
Creek.
A couple comments:
1- Peterson Creek is not an impaired water body, according to State DEC's List of Impaired Waters. I just
checked it online. Juneau's impaired waters are Duck, Jordan, Lemon, Vanderbilt... Peterson Creek has no
impairment.
2- The USS 1555 Restrictive Covenants prohibit more than one dwelling per lot, unless the lot is a minimum of
6 acres. (Article II - page 6; and Article IV page 7).
So, nine lots of 3-4.8 acres in size would yield only 9 single family dwellings, plus acc apartments. I believe the
covenants that run with the land override CBJ dimensional stds on allowable dwellings/parcel.
See you Tuesday,
Gretchen

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The owners of Vista Del Sol LLC have requested a street vacation for the portion of Vista Del Sol Drive
that abuts the currently vacant property to the east, owned by the Honsinger Family Limited
Partnership.
The applicant has requested a street vacation based upon the fact that the street provided connection
to a similarly zoned property (D‐5) at the time the subdivision was approved and platted. The property
has since been rezoned to D‐18 which, the applicants assert in their application, changes the nature of
the proposed development that would share access on the road. For this reason, they propose a street
vacation and re‐design of that section of the subdivision to include four lots where two are currently.
CBJ owns land immediately north of the Vista Del Sol subdivision as well as the neighboring Honsinger
land. Ideally, a connection to the approximately 730 acre property would open this D‐5 zoned property
up for development.
Staff supports denial of this request because it is inconsistent with the street connectivity
requirements of Title 49, as well as the various Comprehensive Plan policies that pertain to it (see
below). Additionally, the street connection requirement was discussed at both of the required plat
public hearings. Staff and the Planning Commission reiterated that the street connectivity was required
Packet Page 60 of 88
as well as important for future development. However, staff would like input from the Subdivision
Review Committee on the proposed street vacation as well as input regarding street connectivity.
Please know that the application cannot move forward at this time because the application lacks the
necessary signatures for processing. However, staff asks that the Subdivision Review Committee
provide a recommendation regarding this request, as well any other options that might be considered.
Staff would also like input regarding street connectivity in general.
Title 49 Requirements, the Comprehensive Plan and Related Plan Policies
The Land Use Code, Title 49, requires connecting streets into adjoining unsubdivided land:
CBJ 49.35.210 (a) Subdivision street systems shall be designed for the most advantageous
development of the entire neighborhood area and shall meet the following criteria:
(1) The street system shall provide for connecting streets into adjoining unsubdivided
lands.
(2) Subdivision street systems shall be designed to maximize the number of
connecting streets in a given area in order to reduce the volume of traffic and traffic
delays on major streets (arterials and major collectors), to minimize bypass and through
trips on residential streets, and to increase the number of local street connections
facilitating safer bicycle and pedestrian travel.
(3) Traffic calming should be taken into account in street layout and design.
The Comprehensive Plan, the Area Wide Transportation Plan, and the Juneau Non‐Motorized
Transportation Plan all call for a connecting street system. Such policies include the following:
Comprehensive Plan:
POLICY 8.5 TO PROMOTE A BALANCED, WELL‐INTEGRATED LOCAL MULTI‐MODAL SURFACE
TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES SAFE, CONVENIENT AND ENERGY‐EFFICIENT
ACCESS AND TRANSPORT PEOPLE AND COMMODITIES.
8.5 – DG4 Minimize access roadways or driveways onto major and minor arterial roadways or
highways by requiring shared access points, such as a frontage road, and connections to
adjacent subdivisions’ roadways that lead to a “downstream” controlled or grade‐separated
intersection.
Area Wide Transportation Plan (AWTP):
One of the six top priority transportation system improvements from the Area Wide Transportation
Plan includes:
(3) Develop Local Street Connections/Access Management. The AWTP seeks to develop local
street connections between subdivisions and adjacent local or collector streets to maximize
Packet Page 61 of 88
connectivity and minimize local vehicle trips on principal roadways. Where feasible, connect
streets for pedestrian, bicycle and vehicle use. Improve connections from neighborhoods to a
regional (interconnected Borough‐wide) non‐motorized trail system.
Juneau Non‐Motorized Transportation Plan:
p. 27 New neighborhoods should have a highly connected street network. Cul‐de‐sacs are
generally discouraged, but if they are necessary, bicycle and pedestrian connections should be
provided to connect the ends of cul‐de‐sacs.
p. 29 Juneau’s streets and neighborhoods are developed along the shore and the valleys
between the mountains, Mendenhall Glacier and the Gastineau Channel. As a result, Juneau
has a fairly linear layout which has both benefits and drawbacks to non‐motorized
transportation. The lack of compact densities means that distances are further between
neighborhoods and work areas. However, because of the limited number of possible routes,
many of the developed areas of Juneau can be interconnected with a small number of facilities.

South – D15, Vacant Land and RR owned by Bricknell
East – D5, Vacant Land, Alaska Mental Health Trust
West – D5, Vista Del Sol Subdivision
Packet Page 68 of 88
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval for a 4‐lot minor subdivision of U.S.S. 1568 – 7400 Glacier
Highway (Attachment A). The property was rezoned from D‐5 to D‐18 and is located off Glacier Highway across
from the airport. The D‐18 zoning district is intended to accommodate primarily multi‐family development at a
density of 18 units per acre, including midrise‐type development.
The parcel is approximately 851 feet wide and 1300 feet deep. Throughout the parcel, there are elements of the
property that may limit the design and layout of future lots, such as wetlands.
ANALYSIS
Per CBJ§49.15.460 Design, staff is required to evaluate all minor subdivisions according to the following:
49.15.424 ‐ Access.
(a) Principal access to the subdivision. Except as provided below, the department shall designate one right‐of‐
way as principal access to the entire subdivision. Such access, if not already accepted for public maintenance,
shall be improved to the applicable standards for public acceptance and maintenance. It shall be the
responsibility of the subdivider to pay the cost of the right‐of‐way improvements.
(b) Publicly maintained access within a subdivision. Unless otherwise provided, all lots must either have direct
and practical access to, and a minimum of 30 feet of frontage on, the right‐of‐way, or the minimum lot width
for the zoning district or use as provided in CBJ 49.25.400. These requirements for frontage and access can be
accomplished by:
(1) Dedication of a new right‐of‐way with construction of the street to public standards. This street must
connect to an existing publicly maintained street;
(2) Use of an existing publicly maintained street;
(3) Upgrading the roadway within an existing right‐of‐way to public street standards. This existing right‐
of‐way must be connected to another publically maintained street; or
(4) A combination of the above.
49.35.210 ‐ Street system. Modified
(a) [In general.] Subdivision street systems shall be designed for the most advantageous development of the
entire neighborhood area and shall meet the following criteria:
(1) The street system shall provide for connecting streets into adjoining unsubdivided lands.
(2) Subdivision street systems shall be designed to maximize the number of connecting streets in a given
area in order to reduce the volume of traffic and traffic delays on major streets (arterials and major
collectors), to minimize bypass and through trips on residential streets, and to increase the number of
local street connections facilitating safer bicycle and pedestrian travel.
(3) Traffic calming should be taken into account in street layout and design.
Additionally, in an October 2, 2015 email from Joe Buck at the Department of Transportation and Public
Facilities, he states:
“CBJ laid out the access road to the new PW facility at 7‐mile Old Glacier Highway with the intent of it
being upgraded in the future to a public street to serve as access to the adjacent double tier of lots
owned by Alaska Mental Health Trust (AMHT), US Survey 3259 Lots 33 through 53. Lot 42 of the AMHT
lands is just to the east of the large Honsinger property that Mr. Harris is looking to subdivide. The old
Packet Page 69 of 88
development plan was for there to be three roads coming off the mountainside onto Glacier Highway;
one at approximately the Vista Del Sol location, one through Lot 42, and one at the CBJ PW facility
access road. This access road arrangement would space out the major intersections along Old Glacier
Highway and would facilitate development of both the private and public lands on the south facing slope
of Heitzelman Ridge. Who knows how the development will actually work out, but that is what was
discussed starting sometime in the mid‐1980’s and continued through 2011 when I left the CBJ.
The upper terminus of the Vista Del Sol Street is perfectly aligned to provides the necessary cross slope
road alignment through the upper portion of the Honsinger property and through the center of the
AMHT properties to the CBJ PW Facility access road. At this point I think it would be a mistake to
consider vacation of the street between Lots 10 and 11 of Vista Del Sol because of this needed future
access. I should think that Mr. Harris should approach AMHT about constructing a street up the hill
though Lot 42 and then doing loops through the Honsinger property instead of cul‐de‐sacs; better street
design for emergency response, snow plowing and maintenance, and for utility configurations.”
ISSUES:
CDD Staff has concerns regarding the proposed subdivision. Therefore, staff is requesting guidance from the
Subdivision Review Committee concerning these items. Following is a short list of these concerns and various
perspectives on each:
1. Frontage & Access –
a. The proposed lots do not have access from a publically maintained right‐of‐way. A variance is
needed, which was not submitted with the application.
b. The preliminary plat utilizes access off an unconstructed street (Vista Del Sol), which has not
been accepted by the CBJ, and which does not conform to public standards.
c. The developer of Vista Del Sol is requesting a vacation of the unconstructed street, therefore
eliminating the access and frontage that is intended for Lot 4 on the preliminary plat;
d. The proposed shared access and utility easement off Glacier Highway is encompassed by a
wetland;
e. The design is also significantly different than what was proposed at the pre‐application meeting.
2. Connectivity – The preliminary plat does not provide a subdivision street system, further it lacks
connectivity that is most advantageous for development of the entire neighborhood area.

Pre-Application Conference Final Report
Conference Summary
Questions/issues/agreements identified at the conference that were not already
identified in the attached reports.
The following is a list of issues, comments and proposed actions, and requested technical
submittal items that were discussed at the pre-application conference.
1. Zoning – D-18. CBJ Land Use Code requires all lots in a proposed subdivision inside the Urban
Service Area to have at least 30 feet of frontage along a publicly maintained right-of-way. The
current site plan shows a dead end road proposed off Glacier Highway that would provide access
to Lots 1 & 2. CDD would recommend a “hammer head” street design that would provide the 30
feet of frontage required.
2. Planned Unit Development option – PUD information as emailed to you by Ms. Boyce on
October 1, 2015. The PUD option provides design and use flexibility. The PUD option may let you
incorporate commercial uses along with residential uses and may be closer to your original goal
to rezone the land to Light Commercial (LC) and D-18. The PUD code section was included in the
email. This property meets the minimum lot area requirement in case you’d like to pursue this
option.
3. Setbacks – Front yard setbacks are 20 feet; rear yard setbacks are 10 feet; side yard setbacks are
5 feet; street side setbacks are 13 feet.
4. Height – Maximum height for permissible uses is 35 feet and 25 feet for accessory uses
5. Parking – Each single family home and duplex requires 2 parking spaces. For multi family
dwelling units 1 parking space for a one bedroom, 1.5 parking spaces for a two bedroom and 2
parking spaces for three or four bedrooms.
6. Access – each lot must have its own access to the right-of-way; shared access is not allowed by
Code unless a panhandle lot is being created. Currently, any proposed shared access requires
variance approval unless it’s a panhandle subdivision.
7. Street connectivity – The Land Use Code (CBJ 49.35.210 Street system) states that
subdivisions shall be designed to provide connectivity into adjacent lands to provide a system of
street networks. The Vista Del Sol subdivision provides a stub out to this property and if that stub
out will be utilized, it needs to provide connectivity within the proposed subdivision as well as to
the adjacent properties to the southeast. Ms. Boyce left a detailed voice mail message to you
about this on Thursday, October 1, 2015.
Additionally, in an October 2, 2015 email from Joe Buck at the Department of Transportation &
Public Facilities, he states:
“CBJ laid out the access road to the new PW facility at 7-mile Old Glacier Highway with the
intent of it being upgraded in the future to a public street to serve as access to the adjacent
double tier of lots owned by Alaska Mental Health Trust (AMHT), US Survey 3259 Lots 33
through 53. Lot 42 of the AMHT lands is just to the east of the large Honsinger property
that Mr. Harris is looking to subdivide. The old development plan was for there to be three
roads coming off the mountainside onto Glacier Highway; one at approximately the Vista
Del Sol location, one through Lot 42, and one at the CBJ PW facility access road. This
access road arrangement would space out the major intersections along Old Glacier
Highway and would facilitate development of both the private and public lands on the
south facing slope of Heitzelman Ridge. Who knows how the development will actually
work out, but that is what was discussed starting sometime in the mid-1980’s and continued
through 2011 when I left the CBJ.
The upper terminus of the Vista Del Sol Street is perfectly aligned to provides the necessary
cross slope road alignment through the upper portion of the Honsinger property and
through the center of the AMHT properties to the CBJ PW Facility access road. At this point

Pre-Application Conference Final Report
I think it would be a mistake to consider vacation of the street between Lots 10 and 11 of
Vista Del Sol because of this needed future access. I should think that Mr. Harris should
approach AMHT about constructing a street up the hill though Lot 42 and then doing loops
through the Honsinger property instead of cul-de-sacs; better street design for emergency
response, snow plowing and maintenance, and for utility configurations.”
8. Landscaping – 30% of vegetative coverage is required in the D18 district
9. Building – The applicant is proposing to construct 3 and 4 plexes on each lot.
10. Fire District – Fire Marshall comments are coming soon.
11. Lighting – Street lights will be addressed with road requirements.
12. Habitat Issues – Habitat issues are not known at this time.
13. Lot Coverage – A maximum of 50% lot coverage is allowed in a D 18 district.
14. Traffic – A traffic impact analysis will be needed because proposed trips will exceed 500 ADT
(average daily trips) since there are approximately 18 units per acre for a total of 19 acres. The
Applicant will need to obtain a driveway permit from ADOT. Current road requirements call for a
minimum of 60 feet for a dedicated right—of-way. Code allows for some reduction in right-of-
way width as long as a 26 foot paved travel way is maintained along with sidewalks on both sides
and street lighting at all intersections.
15. Engineering – See Ron King’s email
16. Noise – N/A at this time
17. Drainage –There will need to be drainage a 10 foot drainage easement along the western
property line. The easement will be privately maintained.
18. Utilities – Putting in a 1” water service to Lots 1, 2, & 3 is all that is required at this point.
However, installing a 6” pipe would be ideal.
19. Wetlands – Wetlands have been delineated and a permit from the Army Corp. of Engineers
would be required for any fill activity. The proposed subdivision would go to the Wetlands
Review Board for review and recommendations.
20. Hazard/Avalanche/Hillside Endorsement – There does not appear to be any hazards and
hillside endorsements required for this project.
21. Flood – This property is located on FEMA Map 1531D and is not in a mapped flood zone.
22. Other Agency Reviews – ADOT, Fire, Wetland Review Board

Re: FILE NO.: MIP2015 0001
PROPOSAL: A Preliminary Plat for a 4-lot minor subdivision at 7400 Glacier Highway
Dear Members of the CBJ Subdivision Review Committee.
Please see our comments below with regard to staffs written concerns.
1. Frontage & Access –
a. The proposed lots do not have access from a publically maintained right-of-way. A variance is
needed, which was not submitted with the application.
We understand a variance may be needed in the future, It makes no sense to file for a Variance at this
time, it is standard procedure to file for a variance at the time of development or construction. A
variance may not be needed if a street is constructed to CBJ standards; we fully understand that a
variance may be needed in the future.
b. The preliminary plat utilizes access off an unconstructed street (Vista Del Sol), which has not
been accepted by the CBJ, and which does not conform to public standards.
When talking with Ron King regarding Vista Del Sol it was said that The CBJ has Bonding in place to
complete any portion of Vista Del Sol that Duran construction has not completed.
As for the last Portion of Vista Del Sol that leads to our proposed Lot-4, we understand this portion of
the street may need to be brought up to CBJ standards and possibly extended including connectivity once
this parcel is planned for development, however we have no development plan for this parcel at this
time, . If streets are to be planned at a later date CBJ will have control over street design. It seems
premature at this time since there are no set development plans for the parcels. Creating street design
without a housing development plan would be very burdensome, expensive and could harm or obstruct
future development possibilities.
c. The developer of Vista Del Sol is requesting a vacation of the unconstructed street, therefore
eliminating the access and frontage that is intended for Lot 4 on the preliminary plat;
If CBJ decides to side with Duran Constructions request we the Applicant could access our four lots from
Glacier Hwy. eliminating the use of Vista Del Sol entirely. There is plenty of Glacier Hwy. frontage to
create the lots utilizing only Glacier Hwy. See attached sketch. These lots would not be categorized as
Panhandle lots due to the fact they would provide the minimum required lot frontage on an existing
maintained road way.
Packet Page 85 of 88
d. The proposed shared access and utility easement off Glacier Highway is encompassed by a
wetland.
We the applicant have been in discussion with A.C.O.E. and fully understand that an Army Corp. permit
for development will be needed.
e. The design is also significantly different than what was proposed at the pre-application meeting.
This is true, due to financial reasons; including the high cost of street construction, land, and
design we have lessened our plans. The proposed subdivision will allow for housing development
on one of the parcels while providing future access to all other parcels.
2. Connectivity – The preliminary plat does not provide a subdivision street system, further it lacks
Connectivity that is most advantageous for development of the entire neighborhood area.
Regarding 49.35.210 Street Systems: Our understanding of what is written is when a proposed
subdivision involves street design and construction, then the street design needs to take connectivity into
consideration. Our request does not involve streets. Our subdivision request is utilizing existing street
access and utilities. If streets are to be planned at a later date we fully understand and expect to
coordinate street design with staff. It would be premature at this time since there are no set
development plans for the parcels. Creating street design without a housing development plan could
harm or obstruct future development possibilities.
It should also be mentioned that all neighboring parcels have existing Old Glacier Hwy. access or
frontage.
We hope you will agree with our proposed plat and thank the Committee in advance for your review,
and consideration of our subdivision request.
Unfortunately I will not be able to attend the meeting on November 10th , I will be out of Juneau.
John Williams will represent R H Development at this meeting.
Cordially,
Richard Harris

Isn’t CBJ 49.15.460 Design –repealed in its entirety on Pg 5 section 10 cbj 49.15 Minor and Major Subdivisions?
I could not find this in the new Ordinance No. 2015-03 Changes to the Land use code, or in a code search on line.
There is a new section regarding design, see below Division 3. Design, this is copied from Pg.5 of Ordinance No.
2015-03 Changes to the Land use code.
Section 10. Repeal and Reenactment of Article. CBJ 49.15, Article IV Minor

49.15.432 Department action.
49.15.433 Design criteria.
49.15.434 Access agreement.
Further, under this same section of the Staff report it stops at (b)
Staff has failed to include (c) Privately maintained access within a subdivision. A subdivision may create new lots
served by a privately maintained access road not maintained by an agency of government as
provided by CBJ 49.15, Article IV, Division 4. All lots must have either a minimum of 30
feet of frontage to the right-of-way, or the minimum lot width for the zoning district or use
as provided in CBJ 49.25.400.
There is a detailed section regarding Access within a ROW. This would all come into play when an application is
submitted. At this time we are not asking for access.

Subject: RE: Minor Subdivision Review - 7400 Glacier Highway
Jill,
Here is our combined response for Southcoast Region DOT&PF. Please call/email if you have questions.
The Department will require all lots to have a combined access from Glacier Highway. Lots 1 and 2 will need to use this
new ROW access. We will not permit additional driveways for those lots.
Additionally, while the current proposal will not trigger the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) requirement, we still
recommend that the applicant have a Traffic Impact Analysis completed considering future development plans. We
note that the final number of units, given the D18 zone, could be as high as 270 and include some commercial use. This
could have a significant impact on our highway. In the interest of efficiency and avoidance of potentially expensive
rebuild requirements, we recommend that the applicant complete the TIA at this time along with any resulting
mitigation recommended in the TIA.
As previously stated, this current proposal does not trigger our TIA requirement, but we do recommend it at this time. If
the applicant chooses not to complete the TIA at this time, then the applicant should be aware that future re-subdivision
or development will require a new review including a TIA and mitigation at that time.
Finally, for all areas of proposed construction activity that drain towards the DOT&PF ROW, the applicant will need to
submit calculations showing that the proposed site conditions will not increase offsite discharges to any DOT&PF
infrastructure. In the event that the proposed site conditions will increase offsite discharges to DOT&PF infrastructure,
the applicant shall design and implement such Stormwater Best Management Practices that are sufficient to reduce
offsite discharges to a level lower than or equal to the existing site conditions.
Thanks for the opportunity to comment.
