Platting Board Meeting - August 6th, 2026

The Matanuska-Susitna Borough Platting Board convened on August 6, 2026, primarily to consider a variance request and plat approval for K&K Estates, a subdivision of approximately 12.98 acres into two lots. The petitioner sought a variance from legal access requirements due to physical constraints posed by existing buildings, with staff recommending approval based on submitted geotechnical and topographic reports and compliance with borough codes. The board discussed concerns related to wetlands and septic feasibility, noting that future development would require permits from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Natural Resources. The variance and plat were approved contingent on staff recommendations. Additionally, the board announced a cancellation of the September 3 meeting due to a lull in submissions, with plans to reconvene on September 17 to hear three cases.
