§ 14.20.060. Remote communities—Villages.

A.

There are unincorporated communities and villages within the borough that are separated from the major populated area by a major topographic feature or distance. It is recognized that the grid system defined under KPB 14.20.040 may not be practicable or necessary for those remote locations.

B.

For remote areas, the address shall consist of a number assigned from the grid in which the property primarily lies, followed by the name of the general location if there is a name. If there is no such name, then the U.S. Survey number shall be used instead. This name or number shall be followed by the quadrant within which the property is primarily located, and the address shall end with the term "REM."

C.

Upon consideration of local concerns, future expansion, public safety, and delivery of services, the planning commission may establish a local system more suitable for the area using the following general guidelines:

1.

If the layout of existing streets and topography is such that a local grid system is practicable, the axis of the grid should be established at a location which allows all addresses to lie in one quadrant of the grid.

2.

In the absence of an acceptable grid system, an incremental numbering system may be employed for each individual street with the addresses emanating from an appropriate major thoroughfare.

3.

There should be 1,000 numbers per mile, similar to KPB 14.20.040(B)(3).

D.

All other provisions of this chapter shall apply regardless of what address system is adopted.
