F. PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. Resolution PZ2019-33 - Recommending the Kenai City Council Amend Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.175 – Adult Businesses, to Increase the Buffer Distances Between Adult Businesses and Sensitive Uses from 500 Feet to 1,000 Feet and Define Sensitive Uses. [Clerk’s Note: This item was moved to item H.1. during agenda approval.] G. UNFINISHED BUSINESS – None. H. NEW BUSINESS [Clerk’s Note: This item was moved to item H.1. during agenda approval.] 1. Discussion - Resolution PZ2019-33 - Recommending the Kenai City Council Amend Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.175 – Adult Businesses, to Increase the Buffer Distances Between Adult Businesses and Sensitive Uses from 500 Feet to 1,000 Feet and Define Sensitive Uses. City Attorney Bloom noted an ordinance had been introduced to change the zoning of adult businesses adding that naked dancing was protected under federal and state constitutions as a Page 4 ___________________________________________________________________________________ Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Page 3 of 4 August 28, 2019 form of expression. He provided an overview of an Alaska Superior Court ruling and the guidance it provided in narrowly tailoring regulations to combat harmful secondary effects of adult oriented businesses which was a compelling government interest and providing an evidence-based analysis demonstrating restriction was combatting harmful secondary effects. He reviewed case law which provided that buffers could not be crafted in a way that less than five percent of property in the City would be available for the use of adult oriented businesses noting that the proposed ordinance increased the buffer from 500 to 1,000-feet which would leave approximately six percent available. He added that, as currently written, the Code provided for adult establishments as an allowed use without a Conditional Use Permit and that would remain the case in the proposed ordinance, which expanded the buffer and provided more defined sensitive uses such as libraries, schools, etc. Mr. Bloom provided examples of evidence based decisions from other cities and a legal review which showed the difficulty in achieving the five percent requirement and why that requirement should not be applied to rural communities such as ours. He noted a report from Mt. Vernon, which discussed the evidence they found, and the process used to obtain the evidence. The final report Mr. Bloom provided showed evidence from New York where the harmful secondary effects can have impacts up to 1,000-feet and more likely even 1,500-feet from adult businesses. Mr. Bloom noted that, when looking at adult oriented businesses in the Kenai Municipal Code, the regulations were detailed, out of date, and a lot potentially need to be changed but Council Member Pettey wanted to propose initial action now and may want to propose additional action later. He added that there was case law where a distinction was made between a business periodically featuring adult oriented material such as an occasional show, and a business which was in the business of featuring adult oriented material. Clarification was provided that a recommendation from the Planning & Zoning Commission was legally required in the amendment of the zoning law. Clarification was also provided on certain constitutional protections and how the percentage of available land was calculated. I. PENDING ITEMS – None. J. REPORTS 1. City Council – Council Member Molloy noted the decisions on Ordinance No. 3083- 2019 relating to the adult oriented businesses discussed and the potential for its referral to the Planning and Zoning Commission, reviewed the action agenda from the August 21 City Council meeting, and noted the recommendation for hours of operation for Marijuana Retail Stores would be a discussion item at Council’s meeting September 4. 2. Borough Planning – Vice-Chair Fikes reported action from the August 26 Borough Planning Commission and Platting Committee meetings. 3. Administration – City Planner Appleby reported on the following: • Noted the department had received two inquiries on the adult business ordinance and if it was related to marijuana; • Noted the supplemental information for the ordinance related to adult businesses was also available online; • Noted an increase in complaints on gravel pits and most were resolved; Page 5 ___________________________________________________________________________________ Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Page 4 of 4 August 28, 2019 • W ork was ongoing on material for a sign code ordinance and would schedule another work session; and • Work on the Lands Management Plan was also ongoing.

The tract encompasses 12.014 acres (approximately 523,330 square feet) and meets requirements of the Heavy Industrial (IH) zone. Peninsula Mini Storage LLC has applied for three building permits to construct four additional storage units. SBC Development Group, Inc. will own the lot referred to as Lot 4-A, Block 1, of the proposed preliminary plat of Bridge Road Subdivision 2019 Replat. This tract encompasses 0.992 acres (approximately 43,212 square feet) and meets the requirements of the Heavy Industrial zone. SBC Development Group, Inc. has submitted a building permit to construct a building which they will lease to a third party. Application, Public Notice, Public Comment KMC 14.10.010 General under Chapter 14.10 Subdivision Regulations states preliminary plats or replats must first be submitted to the City for review prior to the submittal of the plat to the Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning Department. Kenai Municipal Code (KMC) 14.10.060 describes the process in more detail. The plat will be reviewed first by the City of Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission and then by the Kenai Peninsula Borough’s Plat Committee and Planning Commission. The property owners completed the City of Kenai preliminary plat submittal form. City staff deemed the application to be complete. The City of Kenai follows Kenai Peninsula Borough Code 20.25.070 and 20.25.080 for preliminary plat submittal requirements. City staff published notice of the consideration of the plat as part of the agenda for the City of Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission in the Peninsula Clarion. No public comments have been received as of September 6, 2019. Page 8 PZ2019-36 Staff Report Page 3 ANALYSIS Access to the proposed Tract A-1 is via Bridge Access Road and Beaver Loop Road which are paved roads maintained by the State of Alaska. Tract 4-A is provided access via Bridge Access Road. The property owner has a permit from the State of Alaska, Department of Transportation to develop a driveway off of Bridge Access Road. The proposed plat does not dedicate any additional rights-of-way. Street names are denoted accurately on the preliminary plat. City of Kenai water and sewer lines are within the right-of-way of Bridge Access Road; however, City Council enacted Ordinance 2009-2017 granting the property owner an exception to KMC 17.10 Connection to Public Water System and KMC 17.20 Connection to Public Sewer System. This exception affects a portion of Tract A-1 that is proposed to be formerly known as Lot 7A, Block 1, Bridge Road Subdivision Lockwood Addition). The agreement states it is to move with the property. The City would follow through to get a new agreement in place following the finalization of the plat. The City Public Works Director approves of the plans for water and sewer connection. An installation agreement is not required. A ten foot (10’) utility easement runs along the perimeter of Tract A-1 and the southwesterly ten feet (10’) of Lot A-4 of the proposed plat. A ten foot (10’) utility easement centered on the new lot line of Lot A-4 is proposed to be added to the plat. In addition, a twenty foot (20’) utility easement that runs across the middle of Tract A-1 is proposed to be vacated. These changes meet City Code and would allow for orderly development of the new parcel. City staff does not object and would plan to recommend approval of the easement changes to City Council. Based upon the submitted materials and this review, the preliminary plat meets requirements of KMC Subdivision design standards and KMC 14.10.080 Minimum improvements required under Chapter 14.10 Subdivision Regulations. City staff recommends a condition of approval for the property to conform to all federal, State of Alaska, and local regulations. RECOMMENDATIONS City staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat of Bridge Road Subdivision 2019 Replat, subject to the following conditions: 1.Further development of the property shall conform to all federal, State of Alaska, and local regulations. 2.A City of Kenai Water and Sewer Waiver Agreement be signed for the new parcel with the new owner.
