We would like to acknowledge that the City and Borough of Juneau is on Tlingit land, and wish to honor the indigenous people of this land. For more than ten thousand years, Alaska Native people have been and continue to be integral to the well-being of our community. We are grateful to be in this place, a part of this community, and to honor the culture, traditions, and resilience of the Tlingit people. Gunalchéesh!
Applicants: Gabe Dunham & David Klein
Location: 12400 & 12410 Glacier Highway
DIRECTOR'S REPORT
The applicants request a rezone for 1.96 acres from D1(T)D3 to D3 on Glacier Highway west of Auke Bay. In accordance with Title 49 and the Comprehensive Plan, transition zones are intended for higher density development after public water and sewer have been provided. The lots are connected to public water, but not public sewer. Additionally, CBJ 49.35.210(b)(3) prohibits direct access onto an arterial from a parcel of land with less than 500 feet of frontage, less than 350 feet in depth, or less than 36,000 in square feet. These requirements make subdivision of these lots impermissible.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the Director’s analysis and findings and DENY Rezone Application Permit AME2024 0001.
Applicants: Glacier Heights LLC
Location: 7400 Glacier Highway
DIRECTOR’S REPORT
The applicant requests a modification to ARF2024 0001. This application is in response to soil conditions, leveraging the shift to respond to market desires for underground parking and three-bedroom units. The shift increases the distance between the development and the established Vista del Sol neighborhood to the west. Parking requirements remain the same, and parking provided is increased. During final plat approval in April 2023, a Vista del Sol comment requesting definition of the setback details was missed, but can be considered under this case.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the Director’s analysis and findings, and approve the modifications to ARF2022 0001.
