Borough Planning-Phil Bryson reported that the consent agenda was approved and is in the packet. There was a request for a land reclassification in the Seward area; however, the petitioner requested that action be postponed. It was postponed to the second meeting in March. A special consideration for Nubbleof Hill Subdivision, vacating trails and utility easements on McDonald spit, was heard. The individual who made the petition for vacation which had been recommended for approval ran into additional difficulties because of a law suit on the adjacent property. He requested a resolution concerning the vacation of the trails and utility easements. A resolution was approved which reflectsthe prior action. Three plats were approved. The coastal management program considerations, and NPDES for oil and gas exploration. Bryson explained this item had another public hearing scheduled for this week down on the south peninsula so it was felt it would be addressing it before the last public hearing was held. A work session was held prior to the Monday meeting on the Kenai River special management proposal. Bryson noted that the commission had a copy of Mayor Williams' letter that was submitted at this meeting. During the meeting, Cary Graves the city attorney, represented his views on what the effects within the city. The ~ concerns were also depicted in the letter from Mayor Williams. The committee intends to try to hold closely to the prior schedule that they set up. They will be introducing the proposed ordinance at the next scheduled meeting or the. meeting right after that. They plan to go ahead with it. They want to incorporate comments, put together a final document, ratify it, and forward it to the assembly for action. Administration-Jack La Shot noted that the river ordinance in the packet is different that the one that was in the packet last meeting. This is version "B" and it does add some to the flood plane. The concerns of the city are still the same and hasn't changed from the first version. La Shot noted there were also a couple of park applications for funds for recreation enhancement projects. And, the building permit summary for 1995 is also included. La Shot noted it looks like this year will be similar; however, possibly more commercial building. There is quite a bit of activity near the new Spur Highway area and if interest rates stay where they are the housing should be similar. ADJOURNMENT: TERESA WERNER-QUADE MOVED TO ADJOURN.
