Planning commission approves vacation of 10-foot utility easement in Lake Hill Subdivision
Summary
On Sept. 8, 2025, the Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning Commission unanimously approved a petition to vacate a 10-foot utility easement along interior lot lines recorded on the Lake Hill Subdivision Part 3 plat, subject to two staff conditions.
The Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning Commission on Sept. 8, 2025, voted unanimously to grant a petition to vacate a 10-foot utility easement along interior lot lines shown on the Lake Hill Subdivision Part 3 plat (KN 84265), the commission chair said.
Staff told the commission the petitioner requests vacation of the 10-foot utility easement recorded by plat 80-4-25265 in the K-9 Recording District and that if approved the vacation would be finalized by the Christianson Addition. Staff recommended approval based on its findings and listed two conditions in the staff report.
Ronnie Boyko of Edge Survey and Design, speaking for the applicant in place of Jason Young, said he was available to answer questions. No public comments or objections were recorded during the hearing and staff reported no opposition from utility companies that received notice.
A commissioner moved to grant the vacation “as petition” under KPB 20.65.060(d), subject to the two conditions in the staff report; the motion was seconded and passed by roll call. The record shows the following votes: Commissioner Eppenheimer — yes; Commissioner Whitney — yes; Commissioner England — yes; Commissioner Vikes — yes; Commissioner Slaughter — yes; Commissioner Venuti — yes; Commissioner Brantley — yes. The motion passed.
The staff report said the proposed plat will combine lots referenced in the staff paperwork and remove the common lot line(s); the report did not include further parcel-specific details in the public hearing transcript. Final platization steps will be completed through the Christianson Addition process and the plat committee will review related plats at the Sept. 22, 2025, meeting.
The commission’s approval applies only to the easement vacation described in the staff report and is conditioned on the two items listed in that report.
