Resolution PZ 93-16: Encroachment - Jackson La Shot reported that the encroachment was for Lot 9 Block 2 Deepwood Park Subdivision. The encroachment was 12.6 feet into the setback, but did meet the criteria of an encroachment as defined by the code. Bryson opened the meeting to Public Hearing. KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION April 28, 1993 - Meeting Page 3 Bryson I have a question for Jack. I was just out there looking at this, and that end of the house is actually one story high and they have a deck of some type above that area. The house doesn't reach the greater height, I don't know if it's 12 feet in or 20 feet in, but you interpret that as the type of construction that would require 15 feet? La Shot The applicant told us it was a two-story house. The code isn't very specific on it's definition of a two-story house. Nelson If Jackson is not interested in buying a strip of property from me to make their property meet the setbacks. If for instance he did would that make my setback 30 feet. If so, that would making building on my lot nearly impossible. Bryson asked for further public comment. Seeing no one who wished to testify he brought the item back to the Commission. MOTION: Bannock MOVED approval of Resolution PZ 93-16. Glick SECONDED. ***DISCIISSION*** Goeoke asked Administration if the setbacks were in existence when the house was built in 1985? La Shot the setbacks were the same but the house was built before plot plans were a requirement of getting a building permit. Walker asked Nelson'if she had a solution? Nelson said she would at least expect the same setback situation as Jackson and possibly a privacy fence. If she built on that lot or in the middle of those two lots, the spot she would pick would allow the house to be seen. If the house had been built within the setbacks it would not be seen from her lots. She bought both lots for the sake of privacy if I wished to build there. Bryson asked La Shot if another structure was built similar to this would fire code require a separation of 10 feet between these structures. La Shot said that he thought you needed 3 to 5 feet from the property line before a firewall is needed for residential property. Bryson felt the simplest solution would be for Jackson to purchase a strip of land from Nelson. Nelson said if she sold a strip it would affect the ability to ~ build on these lots.

Quandt Property Bryson noted the letter from the State to Quandts (attached) regarding the breach of the lease and giving them until June 1 to conform to Kenai City codes. 10. REPORTS a. City Council Smalley reported on agenda items. The City Manager candidate Tom Mannenin and his wife will be in the City the week of April 25th. Candidate Zenner will be in town the following week. There were several community events planned so citizens could meet these candidates. The encroachment for Baron Park Service Addition which failed at the P&Z level was passed by Council. The plat had failed P&Z due to a conflict of interest which resulted in a no-quorum vote. The Council will set a work session at their June 16 meeting between P&Z, TSH Task Force and Council. No action has been taken on the TSH Ordinance. Bannock expressed concern over another work session and hoped that Council would clearly define what they expect to have accomplished by this. He hoped that Council would attend so they could understand the concerns of both entities. He felt that those concerns were clearly spelled out in the minutes and he thought it was a duplication of efforts. Smalley said he felt that the Council needed to hear for themselves these positions and be able to ask questions. He felt that the Council may be split on this issue until they clarify for themselves these concerns.
