Welcome to Homer, Alaska! 
Located on Kachemak Bay at the "end of the road"'200 miles south of Anchorage on the tip of the Kenai Peninsula, Homer is known as the Halibut Fishing Capital of the World.  You know you've arrived in Homer when you pull off into the Baycrest Overlook to take in the breathtaking panoramic view of Kachemak Bay, the Homer Spit, and volcanoes in the distance.

Right-of-Ways and easements are used by the City to maintain roadways and to access water ways and utilities.  Blocking right-of-ways interferes with the Public Works Department's ability to efficiently clear roads, keep traffic flowing and to service utilities.  Please keep things like vehicles, fences, gardens and snow removal out of the right of way.

Ordinance 22-40 prohibits obstruction and encroachments of the right-of-way and easements and makes obstructing city services a finable offense under Homer City Code General Penalty Chapter 1.16.

East Hill Road will open tonight at 6pm. The road has been closed between S. Slope and Willow for deep PPE work since August 1st.

Please be cautious as the work is being done and avoid the area if you can.  If you live in this area, Southcentral Construction Traffic Control Supervisor, Danica High (907-299-3046) has issued the following Public Notice:

Please mind the pilot car signs and traffic control staff, as activities during this time are more dangerous due to heavy equipment.  Thank you.
