Chugiak Community Council 7/11/2018 10:16:21 PM
The Chugiak community council apposes the plat as drafted, specifically tract 1. During the planning process the council was very involved. Tract 1 was originally 4 tract with densities on the north west corner being the highest, while densities north east corner were much lower. This allowed for transition from lower to higher densities in concert with the Chugiak Eagle River Comprehensive plan. The council understands the need to approve a plat to allow for AWWU to move forward with their proposed water storage tank which the council does not appose. To that end, the council worked closely with P&Z to come to agreement regarding the overall number of units that could be built on the parcels. However, the council believes HLB's revision to consolidate what was presented publicly as 4 tracts into 1 was done without regard to the council's input. Comments were provided to HLB in the form of an email dated 13 June 2018 as follows. The council feels our comments were ignored by HLB in the process. "Dear HLB, Attached are the minutes from the May Chugiak Community Council (CCC) meeting whereby the CCC put forth and passed a motion of support only if Tract 1 could be divided back into 4 parcels as was originally planned thereby allowing for density transition from lower to higher. Without the transition areas, the CCC does not support the Plat as currently drafted. Please accept this as formal comment on the plat for the purposes of testimony for the June 14 meeting regarding this issue Thank you for consideration in this matter.
