Section KMC 14.25.030 details Landscaping/Site Plan submittal requirements. This is a landscape/site plan for the Kenai Aspen Hotel. The applicant has submitted a site plan showing the proposed building, access, parking, landscaping, and dumpster. A storm water collection, treatment, and discharge plan has been approved with the State of Alaska, Department of Environmental Conservation and is being developed at the rear of this property on an adjacent parcel. This development is located on a large, previously cleared area. Four types of landscaping are defined in KMC 14.25.040: Perimeter/Buffer Landscaping -involves the land areas adjacent to the lot lines within the property boundary and serves to separate and minimize the impact between adjacent uses. o This development is located in a large area that was previously cleared. There is minimal perimeter/buffer landscaping planned. There is a landscaped area planned along the north end of the building. The plan includes some landscaping islands in proximity to parking areas to separate the parking from the access way through Sprucewood Glen Subdivision and to organize the traffic patterns. The property does not abut a residential area so separation is not required. 0732 Comment.doc Page 2 • Interior Landscaping -involves areas exclusive of the perimeter and parking lot areas. o There is minimal interior landscaping planned. A lawn strip is planned in front of the proposed building. • Parking Lot Landscaping -involves areas adjacent to or within parking lots and access drives. o Parking lot islands are positioned throughout the site. These will be landscaped with grass, White Spruce, Boulder Cluster and Paper Birch. • Street-right-of-way Landscaping -. intent to soften the impact of land uses along rights-of-way but does not obscure land uses from sight. o This property abuts the Kenai Spur Highway and the main access is off the Kenai Spur Highway. The right-of-way along the Kenai Spur Highway is already landscaped. No additional landscaping is planned. Kenai Municipal Code 14.25.045 identifies the objectives for the site plan. The site plan provided in this application meets the objective of the code. The plan provides for location of the building, access to and from the site, traffic patterns, parking lot layout, a snow storage area, and location for signage. The area identified for snow storage is minimal and if it is not sufficient, snow must be removed from the site or an agreement made with adjoining properties for snow storage. The plan provides 78 standard parking spaces and 5 handicap spaces. The code requires one space for every hotel room plus two spaces. There are 78 rooms in the hotel. The parking lot will be paved. The plan shows a dumpster within a fence north of the proposed building. The building official will review the proposed fencing structure to insure it meets both the building code and the screening required. The building official will review proposed signage to insure signage meets both the building code and zoning code for size and location. City Engineer: Traffic to and from the site will use existing access points to the Kenai Spur Highway and Walker Lane. Drainage from this site is routed underground to a storm water system that also drains adjacent properties. Additional snow storage area might be available on adjacent property near the proposed storm water infiltration basin. Building Official: No comment at this time. My review of the proposed building has not started. RECOMMENDATIONS The Iandscapelsite plan for the proposed Kenai Aspen Hotel appears to meet the objectives of KMC 14.25. Site plan is approved with the following requirements: All required landscaping as presented in the approved landscaping plan shall be installed within one year after issuance of Certificate of Occupancy. 0732 Comment.doc Page 3 2. One hundred percent (100%} of ground cover of the landscaping beds must be planted and maintained so that there is no exposed soil within three years of the approved plan. 3. The parking lot must be paved within two (2} years of the Certificate of Occupancy. 4. Snow storage must be located on the lot and cannot be placed on required parking spaces or the snow must be removed from the site. No snow may be stored in such a manner that would block visibility for ingress and egress to the lot. 5. The structure for the dumpster must be constructed of wood or concrete. City administration may approve other materials prior to construction. 6. If construction of the project has not started within one year of the approval of the landscaping/site plan, the approval shall lapse unless extended for good cause. ATTACHMENTS: 1.

Section KMC 14.25:030 details Landscaping/Site Plan submittal requirements. This is a landscape/site plan for the Kenai Community Care Center. The Center is located in a residential zone; however, due to the commercial occupancy of the proposed structures, the landscape/site plan is required. The applicant has submitted a site plan showing the existing buildings, proposed buildings, access, parking, landscaping, snow storage and dumpster location. Four types of landscaping are defined in KMC 14.25.040: Perimeter/Buffer Landscaping -involves the land areas adjacent to the lot lines within the property boundary and serves to separate and minimize the impact between adjacent uses. o This deveVopment is located in a large area that was previously cleared, There are a few areas of vegetation that will need to be cleared for the two .proposed buildings and parking. Natural vegetation along the perimeter of the parcel will be maintained. A lawn strip is planned around the two proposed structures. The Director of the Care Center stated during the May 23, 2007 Planning & Zoning meeting that additional landscaping would be completed by the residents of the Center to insure that there was a separation between the adjoining parcel. However, the submitted plan 0931 Comment.doc Page 2 does not show additional landscaping. Interior Landscaping -involves areas exclusive of the. perimeter and parking lot areas. o A lawn strip is planned around the proposed structures and where the site is disturbed. Parking Lot Landscaping -involves areas adjacent to or within parking lots and access drives. o The parking spaces are located abutting natural vegetated areas. There is no additional parking lot landscaping planned. The parking lot will bepaved. Street-right-of-way Landscaping -. intent to soften the impact of land uses along rights-of-way but does not obscure land uses from sight. o This property abuts South Spruce Street. Natural vegetation is being maintained. No additional landscaping is planned. Kenai Municipal Code 14.25.045 identifies the objectives for the site plan, The site plan provided in this application meets the objective of the code. The plan shows the location of the two buildings, access to and from the site, parking spaces, snow storage areas, and the dumpster. The plan provides Z2 parking spaces. The facility operates under a Conditional Use Permit. The Commission recognized the Center is not a public facility and did not require the facility to meet the parking requirements for a public facility. The parking lot will be paved. The plan shows a dumpster within a "wood fence enclosure." The building official will review the proposed fencing structure to insure it meets the building code. The administrative official will review the fencing structure for compliance with the screening requirement. City Engineer: Drainage will be examined during the building permit review. Adequate area exists on site for snow storage. Ingress/egress appear adequate. Building Official: Reviews of the building permit plans are not complete at this time. However, no plans are provided for fencing of the dumpster so verification that the fencing is in compliance with building code will be during on-site building inspections RECOMMENDATIONS The landscape/site plan for the proposed administration and gymnasium buildings for the Kenai Peninsula Community Care Center appears to meet the objectives of KMC 14.25. Site plan is approved with the following requirements: 1. All required landscaping as presented in the approved landscaping plan must be installed within one year after issuance of Certificate of Occupancy. 2. One hundred percent {100%) of ground cover of the landscaping beds must be planted and maintained so that there is no exposed soil within three years of the approved plan. 0731 Comment.doc Page 3 3. The parking lot must be paved within two (2) years of the Certificate of Occupancy. 4. Snow storage must be located on the lot and cannot be placed on required parking spaces or the snow must be removed from the site. No snow may be stored in such a manner that would block visibility for ingress and egress to the lot. 5. Plans must be submitted and approved for the dumpster structure prior to construction, The structure for the dumpster must be constructed of wood or concrete. City administration may approve other materials prior to construction. 6. If construction of the project has not started within one year of the approval of the landscaping/site plan, the approval shall lapse unless extended for good cause. ATTACHMENTS: 1.
