WHEREAS, the Planning and Zoning Commission finds: The current zoning district, CG allows for the widest range of commercial and industrial uses compared to other commercial zoning districts. The existing CG zone is not compatible land use for this area since there are existing residential uses to the north and east of the proposed rezone area and an existing single-family dwelling in the proposed rezone area. Resolution No. PZ2023-19 Page 2 of 2 2. The rezone to RS zone would increase the adjacent RS zoning district, which it is anticipated that it would be developed in junction with the surrounding residential uses to the north and east., Therefore, minimizing potential impacts of commercial development on existing residential uses. 3. The existing land use classification states a compatible mix of residential and commercial uses. It is anticipated that this area will become residential uses. In the RS zone, several commercial uses are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit as listed in KMC Section 14.22.010 Land Use Table. The proposed rezone to RS zone would be consistent with the Mixed -Use land use classification as identified in the Comprehensive Plan. 4. The proposed rezone to RS would align with the current low to medium density residential character of the neighborhood. 5. The proposed rezone to RS zone would make the existing single-family dwelling compliant with the zoning district. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RECOMMENDED BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA: Section 1. That Kenai City Council approve the rezone request for the properties located at 1202, 1204, and 1206 First Avenue and 103 Birch Street from General Commercial (CG) to Suburban Residential (RS) zoning district.

Adopt Resolution PZ2023-19 recommending approval of a rezone of four (4) parcels from General Commercial (CG) to Suburban Residential (RS) Zoning District. Nancy and Michael Wiles 1206 First Avenue Kenai, AK 99611 Parcel No. Address Lot Size 04317028 1202 First Avenue 0.49-acre 04317029 1206 First Avenue 0.31-acre Five D Investments LLC c/o Ken Dunbar P.O. Box 969 Kenai, AK 99611 Legal Description Lot 1, Letzring 1985 Subd. of Gov. Lot 169 Lot 2, Letzring 1985 Subd. of Gov. Lot 169 04317030 1204 First Avenue 0.31-acre Lot 3, Letzring 1985 Subd. of Gov. Lot 169 04317013 103 Birch Street 1.25 acres Govt Lot 170 Current Zoning: General Commercial (GC) Proposed Zoning: Suburban Residential (RS) Current Land Use Single -Family Residence, Accessory Structures, and Vacant Parcels Land Use Plan Mixed -Use SUMMARY The applicants are seeking to rezone properties located at 1202, 1204, and 1206 First Avenue and 103 Birch Street from General Commercial (CG) to Suburban Residential (RS) zoning district. The purpose of the rezone is to allow additional affordable housing rather than commercial use on the subject parcels. For the parcel located at 103 Birch Street, the property owner intends to subdivide and construct a single-family dwelling unit on each lot. In the applicants' letter, it is indicated that 103 Birch Street would be subdivide and four (4) single-family homes would be constructed. However, Planning staff received the preliminary plat and it shows a 5-lot subdivision. The preliminary plat is subject to compliance with KMC Chapter 14.10 Subdivision Regulations and would come before the Planning & Zoning Commission for review/recommendation at a later time contingent on the decision of the rezone. If approved, the zone change would allow a residential use as a principal use, whereas under the existing zone, CG, a residential use is only permitted as a secondary use. ANALYSIS Pursuant to KMC Section 14.20.270, the initiation of a Zoning Map Amendment may be initiated by a majority of the property owners in the area to be rezone. Furthermore, the area to be rezoned contains a minimum one (1) acre (excluding street or alley rights -of -way) unless the amendment enlarges an adjacent district boundary. Three (3) out of the four (4) parcels are under the same ownership with the remaining parcel owned by a different property owner. Both property owners jointly applied for the rezone; therefore, meeting the initiation of a rezone application. To further support their request, the applicants have provided a list of signatures from surrounding property owners/residents to support their rezone petition. The combined area of the rezone is approximately 2.36 acres, which exceeds the minimum one (1) acre requirement for a zoning map amendment and it would expand the adjacent Suburban Residential zoning district to the north and east of the proposed rezone area. Existing and Proposed Zoning The existing zoning is General Commercial (CG) and the intent as outlined in KMC Section 14.20.120 states the following: The CG Zone is established 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. Finai,_ The proposed rezone area is surrounded by a commercial office/warehouse with outdoor storage to the west, residential uses to the north and east, and a commercial center, known as Swanson Square to the south across First Avenue. The current zoning, CG prohibits single-family and two-family residential uses unless it is a secondary use according to the land use table found in KMC Section 14.22.010 as shown below (highlighted in yellow).

Resolution No. PZ2023-19 Rezone from General Commercial (CG) to Suburban Residential (RS) 1202, -04, -06 First Avenue and 103 Birch Street Page 3 of 6 In addition, CG zone allows for the widest range of commercial and industrial uses compared to other commercial zoning districts. The existing CG zone is not a compatible land use for this area since there are existing residential uses to the north and east of the proposed rezone area and an existing single-family dwelling in the proposed rezone area. While the site plan/landscaping review is intended to provide adequate buffers, transitions, and impacts between commercial/industrial uses and residential uses, this could be further implemented through a suitable zoning designation. The intent of the CG zone is not compatible with the existing residential uses in the adjacent RS zoning district to the north and east. There are other restrictive commercial zoning districts that allows residential use as a principal use but it would provide a disconnect between the existing CG zone to the west of the proposed rezone area. The proposed zoning is Suburban Residential (SR) and the intent as outlined in KMC Section 14.20.090 states the following: 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. (A) Violate the residential character of the environment, (B) Generate heavy traffic in predominantly residential areas. Findings. The rezone to RS zone would increase the adjacent RS zoning district, which it is anticipated that it would be developed in junction with the surrounding residential uses to the north and east. Therefore, minimizing potential impacts of commercial development on existing residential uses. As noted by the applicants, there is a need for additional housing and this rezone would allow for residential uses without going through additional planning processes. Comprehensive Plan — Land Use Classification The existing land use classification is Mixed -Use and the intent as outlined in the Imagine Kenai 2030 Comprehensive Plan ("Comprehensive Plan") states the following: Mixed use is intended for a compatible mix of residential, retail, service, office, public, institutional and recreational uses. Uses are co -located in an integrated way that supports sustainable forms of transport such as public transport, walking and biking, and increases neighborhood amenities. Compatibility issues are addressed through careful site layout and building design. Ymaings. The existing land use classification states a compatible mix of residential and commercial uses. It is anticipated that this area will become residential uses. In the RS zone, several commercial uses are permitted subject to a Conditional Use Permit (see attached Land Use Table). The proposed rezone to RS zone would be consistent with the Mixed -Use land use classification as identified in the Comprehensive Plan. Therefore, an amendment to the land use map in the Comprehensive Plan is not required. During the 2016 Comprehensive Resolution No. PZ2023-19 Rezone from General Commercial (CG) to Suburban Residential (RS) 1202, -04, -06 First Avenue and 103 Birch Street Page 4 of 6 Plan update, City Council passed Ordinance No. 2908-2016, approving and adopting a revised 2030 Comprehensive Plan updated in 2016, which shows that the draft land use plan map included in the Ordinance packet but it was not carry into the final version of the Comprehensive Plan (see attached draft Land Use Plan map). This is important to note the correct land use classification because it determines whether an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan is required. If it was classified as General Commercial as it is shown in the final version, then the City would need to make the findings for the Comprehensive Plan amendment in addition to the rezone of the zoning district. The Comprehensive Plan supports this rezoning in the following identified goal: Goal 1— Quality of Life: 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. Findings: The proposed rezone to IRS would align with the current low to medium density residential character of the neighborhood. Existing Use In the proposed rezone area, the only existing principal use is a single-family dwelling on the property located at 1206 First Avenue, which is adjacent to the storage yard for the commercial office/warehouse in the northwest corner of N. Spruce Street and First Avenue. Findings. The proposed rezone to IRS zone would make the existing single-family dwelling compliant with the zoning district. Under the existing CG zone, the existing residence is considered a non -conforming use since residential use is not permitted to be a principal use. Therefore, any expansions or alterations of the residence would be subject to KMC Section 14.20.050 Nonconforming lots, structures, and uses. PUBLIC NOTICE Pursuant to Kenai Municipal Code 14.20.280 notices of the public hearing for the rezone were mailed to property owners within a three hundred -foot (300') periphery of the subject properties. City staff published notice of the public hearing in the Peninsula Clarion, and notification was posted. No public comments have been received as -of -date. This rezone request was previously advertised as a public hearing for Planning & Commission meeting held on October 25, 2023. Due to discrepancies discovered by Planning staff, a staff report and resolution was not included in the packet. Therefore, no action was taken at the public meeting. However, due to the advertisement of the proposal as a public hearing, public testimony was opened and the applicant, Nancy Wiles was present to support the rezone request. In addition, Mr. Keith Shaffer, resident at 104 Birch Street was in support of the rezone to residential. TAFF RECOMMENDATION Based on the findings and analysis in this staff report, Staff recommends the Planning & Zoning Commission recommend approval of the rezone request for the properties located at 1202, 1204, and 1206 First Avenue and 103 Birch Street from General Commercial (CG) to Suburban Resolution No. PZ2023-19 Rezone from General Commercial (CG) to Suburban Residential (RS) 1202, -04, -06 First Avenue and 103 Birch Street Page 5 of 6 Residential (RS) zoning district.

It is our belief that the community is better served with additional affordable housing rather than commercial use in this area. As attested by the 56 neighborhood signatures (as well as our two), our neighbors agree and wish to have homes built in this area. Rezoning to SR would bring this section of the block into alignment with the current neighborhood. Mr. Dunbar wishes to subdivide and build four single family homes on the 103 Birch St. lot. The City would benefit from having the additional tax base of the completed homes, as well as the income from water and sewer utilities. The community would benefit by having affordable rental properties in a convenient location. The Wiles originally Purchased 1202 and 1204 First Ave. in order to be able to gift or sell a lot to each of their children in order to build a home or cabin. There is the potential of two more homes being built. They have lived in the home at 1206 First Avenue since 1985. � 2 k � ■ $ All ! k 2 { 5 | 2 & 2 & $� E� �. ¥ �.. . �..
