Page 4 ___________________________________________________________________________________ Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Page 3 of 6 October 27, 2021 Planning Director Foster gave a presentation on the draft Land Management Plan (LMP), including why it was created, the background and development of the LMP, the new City Lands Inventory and Database, the objectives of the LMP, how it categorizes lands by recommendation, and timeline for approval by commissions and Council. He provided a demonstration of the new GIS tool and explained how it interacts with the database, and how it can be used by the City and the public in the future. Staff provided clarification that most parcels recommended to be retained have a narrative to explain that status, and that an implementation plan after the final LMP is approved will include changes suggested by commissions and Council such as subdivision and zoning changes. It was discussed how disposal of land can become a contentious issue and the commission should consider the lands recommended for disposal in groups. It was noted that some public feedback had been received by the commission regarding disposal of certain lots. Staff explained that Titles 21 and 22 determine how the City manages lands, and that a plan for development approved by Council is prerequisite for disposal. It was clarified that there are distinctions between commercial and residential development, and ultimately the determination for whether a development should be approved for disposal is at the City Council’s discretion. The need for more feedback from impacted residents was discussed. It was clarified that the zoning will not change when lands are sold, and any subsequent zoning changes would require the normal public hearing process with Council approval. Parcels automatically receive a dispose status when they are deemed not needed for a public purpose, and if they are sold there will also be a public process. Clarification was provided that, regarding a development plan required for land sale, the timeframe for construction can vary and the buyer has different options to meet it. It was suggested that Council review how timeframes are set for residential developments, and it was noted that the Commission can recommend that Council revisit Title 22 and consider how residential properties can be treated differently. The Kenai Cemetery was discussed, and it was noted that the expansion should be finalized in the summer of 2022. An adjacent parcel was discussed as a possible addition to the airport expansion, and it was noted that staff would look at this and return to the next Commission meeting with more information. Clarification was provided that commissioners and can send questions and concerns to the Planning Director to be submitted in the packet, and any public comment received will be added to the next meeting packet or laydown as well. MOTION: Commissioner Douthit MOVED to postpone Resolution No. PZ2021-39 until the November 10, 2021 and Commissioner Halstead SECONDED the motion. VOTE: YEA: Woodard, Douthit, Springer, Fikes, Twait, Halstead NAY: Page 5 ___________________________________________________________________________________ Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting Page 4 of 6 October 27, 2021 MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.

MOTION: Commissioner Douthit MOVED to recommend approval of Resolution No. 2021-XX – Approving the Execution of a Lease to Integrated Account Management, Inc. on Lot 3, Block 3, Cook Inlet Industrial Air Park Subdivision. Commissioner Woodard SECONDED the motion. Planning Director Foster noted the draft Council resolution in the packet for a 45-year lease to Integrated Account Management, Inc. Their application is to continue their current use of the land for professional offices. Foster stated that this use is compatible with this zoning district and with the Comprehensive Plan, and staff’s opinion is that it is a good fit. He noted that because this is airport property, the lease would go toward the airport fund. Clarification was provided that the lessee has the opportunity to purchase the property, which they had discussed with staff but decided instead to renew their lease.

WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission finds: 1. KMC 14.20.150(e)(1) The use is consistent with the purpose of this chapter and the purposes and intent of the zoning district; Critera Met: Both 702 Lawton Drive and 436 Rogers Road are zoned Suburban Residential 2 (RS-2). The RS Zone is intended to provide for medium density residential development in areas which will be provided with common utility systems. The specific intent in establishing this zone is: Page 9 Resolution No. PZ2021-21 Page 2 of 4 (1) To separate residential structures to an extent which will allow for adequate light, air, and privacy; (2) To prohibit uses which would: (A) Violate the residential character of the environment; (B) Generate heavy traffic in predominantly residential areas. The vicinity to the west and east of the subject parcel has a residential character and consists of single family homes on lots zoned Suburban Residential 2, which are buffered by Rogers Road, trees on 702 Lawton Drive, and 436 Rogers Road. The proposed use would increase the amount of traffic entering and existing the parking lot at 750 Lawton Drive and would not be entering the neighborhood via Rogers Road, and would not be generating heavy traffic in a predominantly residential area. “Dormitory” means a building, whether public or private, associated with a school, college or university and designed, used, and arranged for private sleeping, studying, and living accommodation for students. “Bed and breakfast” means a residential, owner-occupied dwelling in which rooms are rented to paying guests on an overnight basis with no more than one (1) meal served daily. The Land Use Table provides that a Dormitory and Bed & Breakfast are conditional uses for the Suburban Residential 2 Zoning Districts; therefore, a conditional use permit must be granted for the operation of a Dormitory and Bed & Breakfast. The applicant has provided a site plan that provides the layout of the premises. 2. KMC 14.20.150(e)(2) The economic and noneconomic value of the adjoining property and neighborhood will not be significantly impaired; Criteria Met. The adjacent parcels to the South at 436 Rogers Road is owned by the applicant and acts essentially as the back yard for 702 Lawton Drive and provides a buffer from properties to the South. To the East is a large, undeveloped, forested parcel, owned by the Kenai Peninsula Borough, which the applicants have leased the portion closest to 702 Lawton Drive for parking. Parcels to the West are single family, suburban residential which are buffered by Rogers Road and trees on 702 Lawton Drive. The City of Kenai Multi-purpose Facility is located to the North, across Lawton Drive. Both the economic and noneconomic value of adjacent properties should not be significantly impacted by the proposed dormitory or bed and breakfast. 3. KMC 14.20.150(e)(3) The proposed use is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan; Criteria Met. The Land Use Plan, from the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, proposes a Suburban Residential land use for this neighborhood. The Suburban Residential Land Use Classification is defined in the Comprehensive Plan: “Suburban Residential is intended for single-family and multi-family residential uses that are urban or suburban in character. The area will typically be developed at a higher density; lots are typically smaller; and, public water and sewer services are required or Page 10 Resolution No. PZ2021-21 Page 3 of 4 planned. Some developments may be required to construct streets to a paved standard and larger subdivisions may be required to provide sidewalks and public areas. Parks and open space land uses may be considered appropriate.” The Comprehensive Plan has goals to support businesses and economic development and to provide a high quality of life within the City. Below are specific goals/objectives from the Comprehensive Plan that support this CUP application: Goal 1 of the Comprehensive Plan is to promote and encourage quality of life in Kenai. • Q-4 Promote the siting and design of land uses that are in harmony and scale with surrounding uses. Goal 2 of the Comprehensive Plan is to provide economic development to support the fiscal health of Kenai. • ED-1 Promote projects that create workforce development opportunities. 4. KMC 14.20.150(e)(4) Public services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed use; Criteria Met. The subject properties have access to City water, City sewer, natural gas, electricity, and telephone services and are accessed via a paved, City maintained road. Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.250(b)(8) requires that there is one (1) space per principal dwelling unit and one (1) per guest room or one for every two beds, therefore the minimum number of parking spaces required is six (6) spaces. The attached application meets this requirement by providing parking at 750 Lawton Drive for up to 24 spaces, though the maximum number of spaces planned by the applicant is 16, which is more than sufficient for the 8 students per class. Parking is for students privately owned vehicles (cars, vans , pick-up trucks, SUVs) and not for commercial trucks or vehicles. Classroom instruction takes place in Sterling. 5. KMC 14.150(e)(5) The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare; Criteria Met: The use of a dormitory and bed and breakfast will not be harmful to the public safety, health and welfare. Staff believes that public services are available to adequately serve this property. A bed and breakfast has operated on the subject property in recent years with a conditional use permit. The applicant has provided the City with a draft site plan and property lease with the Kenai Peninsula Borough, which indicates that there will be sufficient parking available for residents and guests. Access to parking is via Lawton Drive. 6. KMC 14.150(e)(6) Any and all specific conditions deemed necessary by the Commission to fulfill the above-mentioned conditions should be met by the applicant.

Per Kenai Municipal Code 14.22.010 Land use table, both the dormitory and bed and breakfast land uses require a conditional use permit in the Suburban Residential 2 zoning district. The parking requirements for these land uses are met with a lease that the applicants have with the Kenai Municipal Borough property next door at 750 Lawton Drive. The subject property has previously had a conditional use permit for a Bed and Breakfast. Application, Public Notice, Public Comment Pursuant to Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.280(c) notices of the public hearing for the conditional use were mailed to property owners within a three hundred-foot (300’) periphery of the subject property. City staff published notice of the public hearing in the Peninsula Clarion. The applicant submitted an Affidavit of Posting verifying a sign was placed on the parcel with information on the public hearing for the conditional use request. ANALYSIS Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.150(e) – Review Criteria for Conditional Use Permits Pursuant to KMC 14.20.150(a), the intent of a conditional use permit is to allow some uses that may be compatible with the designated principal uses in specific zoning districts provided certain conditions are met. KMC 14.20.150(e)-Conditional Use Permits Review Criteria states six conditions that the Planning and Zoning Commission must deem to exist when establishing findings prior to issuing a conditional use permit: Criteria # 1: The use is consistent with the purpose of this chapter and the purposes and intent of the zoning district. Applicant Response: Although the property is zoned residential, use will be similar to past permitted B&B except that there will be less of a turn-over; the students will be staying for 3 weeks at a time. The abutting property we are requesting conditional use of is zoned Institutional School. Staff Response: Both 702 Lawton Drive and 436 Rogers Road are zoned Suburban Residential 2 (RS-2). The RS Zone is intended to provide for medium density residential development in areas which will be provided with common utility systems. The specific intent in establishing this zone is: (1) To separate residential structures to an extent which will allow for adequate light, air, and privacy; (2) To prohibit uses which would: Page 19 Page 3 of 6 (A) Violate the residential character of the environment; (B) Generate heavy traffic in predominantly residential areas. The vicinity to the west and east of the subject parcel has a residential character and consists of single family homes on lots zoned Suburban Residential 2, which are buffered by Rogers Road, trees on 702 Lawton Drive, and 436 Rogers Road. The proposed use would increase the amount of traffic entering and existing the parking lot at 750 Lawton Drive and would not be entering the neighborhood via Rogers Road, and would not be generating heavy traffic in a predominantly residential area. “Dormitory” means a building, whether public or private, associated with a school, college or university and designed, used, and arranged for private sleeping, studying, and living accommodation for students. “Bed and breakfast” means a residential, owner-occupied dwelling in which rooms are rented to paying guests on an overnight basis with no more than one (1) meal served daily. The Land Use Table provides that a Dormitory and Bed & Breakfast are conditional uses for the Suburban Residential 2 Zoning Districts; therefore, a conditional use permit must be granted for the operation of a Dormitory and Bed & Breakfast. The applicant has provided a site plan that provides the layout of the premises. Criteria #2: The economic and noneconomic value of the adjoining property and neighborhood will not be significantly impaired. Applicant Response: The value of adjoining properties will not be impaired any more than it was under the permit given to the past owners (Herman & Irene Fandel). Conditional Use permit for .26 acres of KPB owned lot (750 Lawton Drive) is requested to provide additional parking for students. This will keep the roadways unobstructed & clear for traffic. Students will be required to read/sign a document notifying them of the rules to obtain lodging (stay in/on the 702 Lawton Drive property). This document states they cannot bring guns, weapons, consume alcohol, use drugs, bring pets, quiet hours, etc. Basically, we must all be considerate and live in harmony with those around us. Staff Response: The adjacent parcels to the South at 436 Rogers Road is owned by the applicant and acts essentially as the back yard for 702 Lawton Drive and provides a buffer from properties to the South. To the East is a large, undeveloped, forested parcel, owned by the Kenai Peninsula Borough, which the applicants have leased the portion closest to 702 Lawton Drive for parking. Parcels to the W est are single family, suburban residential which are buffered by Rogers Road and trees on 702 Lawton Drive. The City of Kenai Multi-purpose Facility is located to the North, across Lawton Drive. Both the economic and noneconomic value of adjacent properties should not be significantly impacted by the proposed dormitory or bed and breakfast. Criteria #3: The proposed use is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan. Page 20 Page 4 of 6 Applicant Response: Business will be paying City taxes on income earned from housing students. Students will be making purchases at local stores, gas stations, eateries during their stay. Both will benefit the fiscal health of the community. Students will be learning about safety and responsibility as they acquire skills to obtain good paying jobs. Staff Response: The Land Use Plan, from the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, proposes a Suburban Residential land use for this neighborhood. The Suburban Residential Land Use Classification is defined in the Comprehensive Plan: “Suburban Residential is intended for single-family and multi-family residential uses that are urban or suburban in character. The area will typically be developed at a higher density; lots are typically smaller; and, public water and sewer services are required or planned. Some developments may be required to construct streets to a paved standard and larger subdivisions may be required to provide sidewalks and public areas. Parks and open space land uses may be considered appropriate.” The Comprehensive Plan has goals to support businesses and economic development and to provide a high quality of life within the City. Below are specific goals/objectives from the Comprehensive Plan that support this CUP application: Goal 1 of the Comprehensive Plan is to promote and encourage quality of life in Kenai.  Q-4 Promote the siting and design of land uses that are in harmony and scale with surrounding uses. Goal 2 of the Comprehensive Plan is to provide economic development to support the fiscal health of Kenai.  ED-1 Promote projects that create workforce development opportunities. Criteria #4: Public services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed use. Applicant Response: Yes, it was permitted in the past as a B&B. Staff Response: The subject properties have access to City water, City sewer, natural gas, electricity, and telephone services and are accessed via a paved, City maintained road. Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.250(b)(8) requires that there is one (1) space per principal dwelling unit and one (1) per guest room or one for every two beds, therefore the minimum number of parking spaces required is six (6) spaces. The attached application meets this requirement by providing parking at 750 Lawton Drive for up to 24 spaces, though the maximum number of spaces planned by the applicant is 16, which is more than sufficient for the 8 students per class. Parking is for students privately owned vehicles (cars, vans, pick-up trucks, SUVs) and not for commercial trucks or vehicles. Classroom instruction takes place in Sterling. Criteria #5: The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare. Applicant Response: The boarders are required to read/sign an agreement as described earlier. As part of their training, they are learning about ensuring the safety of themselves Page 21 Page 5 of 6 and others on the road and in construction zones. We are requesting a Conditional Use Permit for the abutting property to provide off-road parking for the students so that the roadways remain clear and unobstructed. Staff Response: The use of a dormitory and bed and breakfast will not be harmful to the public safety, health and welfare. Staff believes that public services are available to adequately serve this property. A bed and breakfast has operated on the subject property in recent years with a conditional use permit. The applicant has provided the City with a draft site plan and property lease with the Kenai Peninsula Borough, which indicates that there will be sufficient parking available for residents and guests. Access to parking is via Lawton Drive. Criteria # 6: Specific conditions deemed necessary. Applicant Response: Our students will have stays of longer duration, so there will be less of a turn-over. Each will be assigned a specific parking spot. The courses are intense and the students must study/do homework daily, so there will be less traffic. Staff Response: See Conditions of Approval as set forth below.

We also flagged a 70' setback from the centerline of Lawton Drive. There are a number of larch planted in this location, which are believed to have been placed by a previous landowner. The overage tree height is between 3.5' to 8', being between 0.5'' to 2" in diameter at the stump. The larch within the leasehold· are not part of a documented provincial trial. ano several will remain in place, serving as a 20' vegetative buffer from Lawton Drive. Per the lease and approved development plan, you may remove the larch as necessary to create a parking area. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you.

APPLICANT: Casey & Llana Gaze PROPERTY ADDRESS: 6575 Kenai Spur Highway 6607 Kenai Spur Highway 3415 Mudhen Drive LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 2, Block F, Beaver Creek Alaska Subdivision Amended Lot 3, Block F, Beaver Creek Alaska Subdivision Amended Lot 14&15, Block F, Beaver Creek Alaska Subdivision Amended KENAI PENINSULA BOROUGH PARCEL NUMBER: 04106302 04106303 04106317 WHEREAS, a complete application meeting the requirements of Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.150 was submitted to the City on October 11, 2021; and, WHEREAS, the applicant has demonstrated with plans and other documents that the prerequisites of a Conditional Use Permit have been met pursuant to Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.150; and, WHEREAS, the City of Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a duly advertised public hearing on November 10, 2021, following requirements outlined in Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.280 for public hearings and notifications. WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission finds: 1. KMC 14.20.150(d)(1) The use is consistent with the purpose of this chapter and the purposes and intent of the zoning district; Critera Met: Both 6575 Kenai Spur Highway and 6607 Kenai Spur Highway are zoned General Commercial (CG). The proposed Recreational Vehicle Park meets the intent of Page 79 Resolution No. PZ2021-38 Page 2 of 5 the General Commercial Zone (CG) to provide for areas where a broad range of retail, wholesale, and service establishments is desirable. Uses are regulated to concentrate commercial development to the greatest extent possible and to prevent any uses which would have an adverse effect upon nearby properties. New single- and two (2) family residential uses and other noncommercial uses, except as otherwise provided in this chapter, are not permitted in this zone as principal uses because it is intended that land classified in this zone be reserved for commercial purposes, and because a commercial zone is not suited to the uses excluded above. A Recreational Vehicle Park would be a primary commercial use. 3415 Mudhen Drive is designated Rural Residential (RR). The RR Zone is intended to provide for low density residential development in outlying and rural areas in a form which creates a stable and attractive residential environment. The specific intent in establishing this zone is: (1) To separate residential structures to an extent which will: (A) Preserve the rural, open quality of the environment; (B) Prevent health hazards in areas not served by public water and sewer. (2) To prohibit uses which would: (A) Violate the residential character of the environment; (B) Generate heavy traffic in predominantly residential areas. A Recreational Vehicle Park is consistent with the intent of the Rural Residential District by preserving the rural, open quality of the environment with a site design that preserves as many trees as possible and creates privacy between neighboring parcels as well as RV parking spaces. Recommended Condition 2. Applicant will provide a copy of DEC compliance certification on the water/sewer system. The well as shown will likely need to be separated further from the proposed dump station; would prevent health hazards in an area not served by public sewer and that is served by private well. Parcels in the vicinity of the subject parcels, do not have a residential character and consist of general commercial uses and vacant lots. The proposed use would increase the amount of traffic entering and existing the subject properties, but would not be generating heavy traffic in a predominantly residential area. The Land Use Table provides that Recreational Vehicle Parks are a conditional use for both General Commercial and Rural Residential Zoning Districts; therefore, a conditional use permit must be granted for the operation of a Recreational Vehicle Park. The applicant has provided a site plan that provides the layout of the premises. 2. KMC 14.20.150(d)(2) The economic and noneconomic value of the adjoining property and neighborhood will not be significantly impaired; Criteria Met.

Parcels to the North, across the Kenai Spur Highway consist of a propane business, a Homer Electric Association facility, and a steel distributor, all general commercial land uses that Page 80 Resolution No. PZ2021-38 Page 3 of 5 should not be negatively impacted by the proposed recreational vehicle park. Both the economic and noneconomic value of adjacent properties should not be significantly impacted by this change. 3. KMC 14.20.150(d)(3) The proposed use is in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan; Criteria Met. The Land Use Plan, from the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, proposes a General Commercial land use for this neighborhood. The General Commercial Land Use Classification is defined in the Comprehensive Plan: “General Commercial is intended for retail, service, and office businesses that serve Kenai and the larger region. General Commercial is appropriate for locations along the arterial road system. General Commercial-type development requires larger parcels of land and access to a major road system. It is also intended to support smaller-scale businesses.” All of the parcels adjacent to the Kenai Spur Highway are zoned General Commercial, the lots located behind those zoned General Commercial are zoned Rural Residential, though the vast majority are not accessible by existing roads and have platted rights-of-way.

JEFF TWAIT, CHAIRPERSON ATTEST: ______________________________________ JAMIE HEINZ, CITY CLERK Page 111 MEMORANDUM TO: Planning and Zoning Commission FROM: Ryan Foster, Planning Director DATE: October 22, 2021 SUBJECT: Resolution PZ2021-39 – Recommending the Kenai City Council approve and adopt the City of Kenai Land Management Plan In 2018, City Council approved a City-wide approach to land management through the development of the City’s first Land Management Plan. Since that time, Administration has worked diligently to draft a Land Management Plan to inventory, evaluate, and develop recommendations related to City-owned lands. The City of Kenai Imagine Kenai 2030 Comprehensive Plan includes economic development and land use goals and objectives to develop a land inventory and land use strategies to implement a forward-looking approach to community growth and development. The goals of the Land Management Plan incorporate many of these objectives and include the following: • Provide an inventory of City-owned lands with detailed information on each parcel. • Identify properties required for a public purpose or to meet a future public need. • Establish recommendations for individual parcels that are surplus to the needs of the City to assist in responsible development. • Create a comprehensive reference document that establishes a format for developing land management policies and procedures. One of the City’s greatest assets is its land inventory. The City owns 369 subdivided parcels, including wetlands, tidelands, lands surrounding the Kenai Airport, and lands suitable for a variety of business, commercial, industrial, residential, recreational, and cultural purposes. The Land Management Plan is an important tool to spur economic growth and improve the quality of life for Kenai residents and is key to the long-term viability of the City. On October 11, 2021 there was a joint work session with City Council and City Commission Members to kick-off the review, discussion, and comment on the draft City of Kenai Land Management Plan. In addition to additional meeting(s) with the Planning and Zoning Commission, staff have scheduled presentations with the Airport Commission, Parks and Recreation Commission, Beautification Committee, and Harbor Commission to solicit discussion and comments on the draft Land Management Plan. Please review the attached materials. Page 112 Page 2 of 2 Does the Commission recommend Council approve and adopt the City of Kenai Land Management Plan?

LAND MANAGEMENT PLANPage 115 Background In 2018, the Kenai City Council approved land code revisions as part of a City-wide approach to land management through development of the City’s first Land Management Plan.LAND MANAGEMENT PLAN1963In 1963, the FAA transferred nearly 2,000 acres of land to the City of Kenai 1975 2006 1986 In 1975, the City first defined rules and regulations governing the administration of City-owned lands In 1981, the City began to actively dispose of lands and enacted ordinances to encourage disposal 2018 In 1986, Alaska went into recession. Land values, land sales, and leases declined In 2006, the Airport land sale and leasing code sections were repealed and reenacted In 2016, the City Council approved a policy for the sale of ten Airport leased lands (amended 2018, expired 2021) In 2018, the City Council approved revisions to the Airport Lands Code and as part of a City-wide approach to Land management In 2019, the City Council approved revisions to the General Fund lands CodePage 116 The City is unique in its ownership of a large and diverse amount of public land 5,440 Acres of Land 369 Subdivided parcels The equivalent of 4,114 Football Fields (with endzones) LAND MANAGEMENT PLANApproximately 8.5 square miles, roughly the size of Soldotna. Page 117 A SIGNIFIGANT UNDERTAKING A Land Management Plan provides an active approach to management that requires an inventory of land holdings and a comprehensive evaluation and analysis of each parcel. In 2018, the City hired a Temporary Lands Technician to research each parcel of City- owned land and enter the information into a new Lands Database. LAND MANAGEMENT PLANOver 567 recorded documents were reviewed and scanned into the database as part of this project Page 118 New City Lands Inventory and Database LAND MANAGEMENT PLANAn examination of public records and mapping was performed for each City-owned parcel to review and record detailed information in the database, including: Property Description (e.g. physical characteristics, zoning, land use) Facilities (e.g. parks, trails, structures, utilities) Status (e.g. public use, under active lease, availability for lease or sale) Fund (e.g. Airport Fund or General Fund) How the land was obtained (e.g. State, FAA, Municipal Entitlement, tax foreclosure) Encumbrances (e.g. easements, restrictions) Page 119 Land Management Plan Objectives LAND MANAGEMENT PLANProvide an inventory of City-owned lands with detailed information on each parcel Identify properties required for a public purpose or to meet a future public need Establish recommendations for individual parcels that are surplus to the needs of the City to assist in responsible development. Create a comprehensive reference document that establishes a format for developing land management policies and procedures. Page 120 IMPROVED RESPONSE TO PUBLIC The Land Management Plan can be used to actively manage City-owned lands in a wholistic way as well as provide better information to the public. In the future, we hope to make the Plan available on the City's interactive online mapping tool, allowing the public to research City-owned lands from anywhere.

Kenai, AK 99611 907.395.4080 Dear Planner and Commissioners, This letter is regarding Resolution PZ 2021-21 and PZ 2021-40. At the current moment I have a strong “frown” face opposition to approving this Resolution. Some of my Questions are: How many people would “full capacity “be for the Bed & Breakfast, along with a vehicle number. This question also applies to the Dormitory. What does the floor plan look like for the dormitory, what number of people, would there be a co-ed situation? What are the bathroom facilities? How many people are permitted under the Fire codes? Would approval by the Fire Marshall be required? And would the be a completion date of work be stipulated? Would there be a “Quiet Time” rule encouraged as there are kids/students living nearby? Pending the answers and placing these stipulations below; it may be possible to change the “frown” face into a “smiley” face reception. Driveway entrance is off Lawton and one way exiting off Rogers. Safety hazard of Rogers entrance, too close to an intersection and an almost blind left turn into steep icy driveway. Would also like to see the exit onto Rogers be graded to a lesser slope so that the vehicles are not slipping on mud or ice. Would highly recommend a sound barrier/fence between the property at 434 Rogers and along Rogers screening the “picnic” back yard facility. Thank you for your consideration in this matter, Kaye Reed
