Commission recommends borough accept public access easement to serve Grama Ranch subdivision
Summary
The planning commission on Aug. 11 forwarded a recommendation that the borough accept a public access easement across Rainwater family trust property so the proposed Grama Ranch subdivision meets legal-access requirements.
EAST END ROAD AREA — The Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning Commission on Aug. 11 recommended the borough accept a public access easement that provides legal access to the proposed Grama Ranch subdivision.
Staff reported that Grama Ranch (KPB 2023-028) had received preliminary plat approval and that the final plat proposes two dedications including a half dedication of Swift Creek Lane and a public access easement across property owned by the Chris Ring and the Michael G. and Mary E. Rainwater Family Trust. Staff said acceptance of the easement would satisfy the borough’s legal-access requirement (KPB 20.30.050) for the subdivision.
Staff recommended approval and the commission moved and seconded a recommendation to forward a resolution authorizing the borough to accept the public access easement. A commissioner noted a typographical date error in the draft resolution; staff acknowledged the correction would be made. The commission’s recommendation will be included in the packet for assembly consideration on Aug. 19, 2025.
The motion passed on a roll-call vote with all voting commissioners recorded as “yes.” The resolution will be filed before the plat is finalized so the easement is shown on the final plat record.
