§ 20.60.050. Dedication and construction of anadromous waterbody crossings.

A.

Where a dedication crosses a waterbody within the Kenai Peninsula Borough Road Service Area cataloged as important to the protection of anadromous fish under AS 16.05.871 as now enacted or as may be hereinafter amended, additional right-of-way dedication or slope easements may be required by the planning commission as necessary for construction to meet the criteria of KPB 14.40.061(A).

B.

Where a dedication is proposed over an existing road crossing a waterbody within the Kenai Peninsula Borough Road Service Area cataloged as important to the protection of anadromous fish under AS 16.05.871 as now enacted or as may be hereinafter amended, the road and crossing must be brought up to the permitting standards established by KPB 14.40.061(A) prior to planning commission approval of the final plat.

C.

Where a plat dedicates a right-of-way over an existing road which crosses an anadromous waterbody as described in KPB 20.60.050(B), the applicant shall have three years from the approval of the preliminary plat to have the final plat approved. The time frame may be extended by the planning director if the extension is requested prior to the termination of the initial three-year period for final plat approval or any previously granted extension, and only if there has been no change in the design of the subdivision's road system since preliminary plat approval. Extensions may only be granted for one year at a time.

D.

The road service area shall inspect and provide certification to the planning department that waterbody crossings meet the permitting requirements of KPB 14.40.061(A) prior to the approval of the final plat.
