Determining That Real Property Described as Lot 5, Block 1, Gusty Subdivision Addition
No. 1, According to Plat No. 83-126 Kenai Recording District, City-Owned Airport Land
Located Outside The Airport Reserve, is Not Needed for a Public Purpose, Waiving KMC

MOTION:
Commissioner Halstead MOVED to recommend the City Council enact Ordinance 3311-2022.
Commissioner Askin SECONDED the motion.
Director Best provided a staff report explaining that this purchase was based on Resolution 2018-12 which
allows the purchase of leased properties that had substantial building development. This policy was in
effect until July 6, 2021 but due to prior illness and death the prior lessee was unable to take advantage of
the policy; Aaron Swanson, d/b/a Forever Business Plaza LLC is the new lessee and wants to purchase
the property at fair market value, excluding the lease-constructed improvements. Best noted the sale is
consistent with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan, and the Planning staff recommends
approval.
Clarification was provided that the time to apply to purchase a leased property under Resolution 2018-12
expired, but this would allow an exception to be made due to lessee passing away before he could take
advantage of the legislation.

September 14, 2022
Director Best provided a staff report explaining that the City had received a Competitive Lease with a Sale
Purchase application from Aaron Swanson d/b/a Forever Business Plaza LLC; the proposed use of the
parcel which is currently vacant would be to construct a Pita Pit restaurant. He noted that the City of Kenai
Land Management Inventory and Recommendation List recommended the property for disposal, and that
the applicant would be responsible for completing development of the property within two years of the
execution of the lease.
Applicant Aaron Swanson explained that this is for the lot next to the lot addressed in Ordinance 3311-
2022, and his intent is to develop it into a Pita Pit restaurant; he wants to build it in a way that would allow
expansion on the property in the future. He clarified that the new structure would be separate from the Pita
Pit food truck and operate as a standalone restaurant, and that there is not yet a final completion date due
to many moving parts including coordination with Pita Pit corporate.
Support was expressed for development of underutilized lots in the City, and for the Lease to Purchase
option being taken advantage of.
VOTE:
YEA: Woodard, Douthit, Halstead, Twait, Askin
NAY: None.

MOTION:

September 14, 2022
Joe Rizzo, Triumvirate Theatre’s Executive Director, explained that they intend to hold off on construction
until plans are complete and funding has been secured. He provided an update on the Triumvirate’s current
finances, upcoming funding opportunities and projected timelines dependent on the funding.
Clarification was provided that Triumvirate is still in the conceptual drawings phase and that the design may
change. Timelines for potential funding opportunities were explained in regards to how they affect their
project schedule and prompted their current extension request, and that this extension will lengthen their
time period to meet the conditions of the original donation to two years from the original deadline. It was
noted that the length of time it would take to complete a survey was also a consideration in the extension
request, and that the survey would need to be completed within a set timeframe.

F. PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. Resolution PZ2022-23 – Recommending the Kenai City Council Enact Ordinance 3316-
2022 Amending Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.150-Conditional Use Permits, To Further
Clarify Roles And Responsibilities Of Applicants, The Planning Director, And The Planning
Commission In The Conditional Use Process.
MOTION:
Vice Chair Douthit MOVED to approve Resolution PZ2022-23. Commissioner Woodard SECONDED the
motion.
Director Best noted that the sectional analysis in the packet provided by Vice Mayor Glendening offers a
good explanation of the proposed changes.
Vice Mayor Glendening explained the purpose of the Ordinance, how it could provide structure for
discussions of conditional use permits (CUP) being granted, modified or denied. Clarification was provided
on the proposed changes to code, including how the Commission does not have to give deference to the
Planning Director’s recommendation; the definition of “deference”; and how the changes will promote a
more thorough examination of the City’s land use table and code by the Commission.
There was discussion regarding the definition of “substantial evidence” and how it will be used to
demonstrate that the decisions of the Commission come from evidence-based reasoning; the instructive
benefits of the proposed language for new commissioners; and whether the proposed language would
increase the potential for appeals of CUP decisions.
The Commission discussed #6 as outlined on the sectional analysis memorandum, which would “Amend
14.20.150(e) by adding language that clarifies that conditions placed on conditional use permits by the
Commission must be based on applicable City Code,” and whether it could restrict the Commission’s ability
to add conditions. Clarification was provided that City Code supports the Commission’s ability to place
conditions on CUPs to ensure that they would be compatible with their surroundings.
It was noted that improvement to the CUP enforcement process was needed, but that this is currently
limited by staff availability.
Chair Twait opened for public hearing; there being no one wishing to be heard, the public hearing was
closed.
The purpose of the Ordinance for confirming the roles and responsibilities of the Planning and Zoning
Commission in the CUP process was discussed.

September 14, 2022
Further clarification was provided on the #2 as outlined on the sectional analysis memorandum, “Amend
14.20.150(b) to require the City Manager report the results of any CUP application appeals made to him or
her to the City Council”; it was noted this does not affect the Commission’s responsibilities.
MOTION TO AMEND:
Vice Chair Douthit MOVED to amend the #6 on the sectional analysis memorandum of Resolution PZ2022-
23 to read: “Amend 14.20.150(e) by adding language that clarifies that conditions placed on conditional
use permits by the Commission must may be based on applicable City Code.” Commissioner Woodard
SECONDED the motion.
Clarification was provided that amendments can be made to the resolution and not the memorandum, and
that the word “must” does not appear in 14.20.150(e). The motion was withdrawn with concurrence from
the second.
VOTE:
YEA: Twait, Askin, Woodard, Douthit, Halstead
NAY: None.
MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.

John Segesser submitted a time extension request for Beaver Loop Acres Addition No. 2
Preliminary Plat. The preliminary plat is attached to this memorandum.
Beaver Loop Acres Addition No. 2 was given conditional approval of the preliminary plat by the
Kenai Peninsula Borough Planning Commission on October 12, 2020, which granted a two-year
preliminary plat approval to October 12, 2022. KPB 20.25.110(A), allows for a total approval time
of six years and that expiration of the original plat approval or time extensions will require the
submission of, and action on, a new preliminary plat. The Kenai Peninsula Borough requires
concurrence from the City of Kenai before granting the extension request.
Due to the time constraint between the expiration of the preliminary plat and the next regularly
scheduled Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, the Kenai Peninsula Borough has
conditionally approved the time extension request on October 4, 2022, subject to a Notice of
Decision from City of Kenai Planning and Zoning Commission.
If the Planning and Zoning Commission approves the time extension request, City staff will sign
the Time Extension Approval.
Does the Commission approve the Beaver Loop Acres Addition No. 2 time extension?
