    Applicant: Huna Totem Corporation

    Location: Southwest corner of Egan Drive and Whittier Street

    DIRECTOR'S REPORT

    This application focuses on code and plan compliance of this proposal and is part of a larger process.  The multi-step process for overall project approval was established by the Assembly when the subport was owned by NCL.  There are three (3) major steps.  The first step was amendment of the Long Range Waterfront Plan to allow a dock at the subport, which was completed in March of 2022.  The second step is the Conditional Use Permit for the uplands and dock, providing review of code and plan compliance.  The third step will be establishing a Tidelands Lease through the Lands and Resources Division.  The Tidelands Lease is the authority of the Assembly and will occur at a future date.

    RECOMMENDATION

    Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the Director’s analysis and findings and APPROVE Conditional Use Permit 2023 0003 with conditions.
