Kenai moves to clear six pieces of public land for sale

Six pieces of city-owned land in Kenai are headed toward the private market. On Wednesday, the City Council will vote to strip their "public purpose" designations — the step a city has to take before it can sell public land — clearing the way for the parcels to be sold.

The city says it's following its own land management plan, which recommended letting these lots go. The vote is set for the council's consent agenda, the batch of routine items passed in a single motion with no debate unless a member pulls one out. No public hearing is scheduled, and the notice lists the parcels only by number — not by location or intended use.

The council meets Wednesday at 6 p.m.
