Summary

The Planning and Zoning Commission approved a street-name change (case 26‑005; resolution FY2026‑011) renaming Landfill Road to Tsunami Road to align with conditions of approval for the Tsunami Subdivision (S25‑006); staff recommended the change under KIBC 12.10.05 and no public testimony was offered.

The Kodiak Island Borough Planning and Zoning Commission voted Nov. 19 to approve a street-name change converting Landfill Road to Tsunami Road, a condition of approval tied to the Tsunami Subdivision (S25‑006).

Staff explained the request was made under KIBC 12.10.05 (changes to existing street names) to match the dedicated right‑of‑way for the new subdivision and to align the existing road name that leads to the City of Old Harbor landfill with the new Tsunami Road created by the subdivision. Staff recommended approval and referenced findings of fact included in the staff packet and the proposed resolution (FY2026‑011).

No members of the public spoke at the public hearing in person or by phone. Commissioners described the request as meeting the subdivision’s conditions of approval and moved to adopt the resolution. A roll‑call vote recorded unanimous support among commissioners in attendance.

The change is administrative and intended to provide consistent road naming in the subdivision and for parcel management; implementation will follow standard recordation and mapping procedures.
