Seeing no participants for public hearing, that portion of the meeting was closed. The item was brought back to the Commission for discussion. MOTION: Hanson moved approval of Resolution PZ 92-33: Lowenstein Encroachment Permit. Glick seconded. Graveley asked if the barn was currently being built? KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION 1 November 10, 1992 Page 2 La Shot reported that the applicant had started building with a verbal okay from former Building Official Howard Hackney. When the applicant came into City Hall for the building permit La Shot realized that the building would be in the present setbacks. It was a confusing situation as this lot is near another zoning district with less restrictive setbacks. The applicant owns both lots, and the encroachment is on one of his lots. VOTE: Glick: Yes Bannock: Yes Hanson: Yes Scott: Yes Goecke: Yes Graveley: Yes 7. NEAP BUSINESS a. Landscaping/Site Plan Regulations Graveley noted the memo in the packet which gave a brief history of the ordinance and observed that the ordinance was not being enforced. The memo asked for a recommendation from P&Z to Council concerning this ordinance. Graveley said he felt that P&Z could take over the duty of the Landscape Review Board. If this ordinance was not being enforced it should probably be eliminated or review board replaced. Scott agreed that this ordinance was not being enforced, but was concerned that this issue needed to be addressed in the code. Developers need to be responsible for landscaping projects within the City. Bannock said he was concerned about making a recommendation on this issue without more information. Why did the ordinance fail, etc.? Graveley asked this item be tabled until the next meeting so Staff can get the minutes of the meeting where the ordinance failed and any other pertinent information. 7 b. Changing meeting date The Commission agreed to meet on Tuesday, November 24, due to the Thanksgiving holiday. 7 c. Mobile Park Beaver Loop Road Goecke asked staff about the trailer park which is located next to the Peninsula Memorial Chapel on Beaver Loop. One of the trailers is unsightly and is a fire hazard. KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION i November 10, 1992 Page 3 Graveley said that this mobile park probably has Granddfather rights. Graveley thought someone should talk to Chester Cone, the owner and see if this area can be cleaned up. 8. OLD BUSINESS a. Resolution PZ 92-26: Rezone - See (Tabled for one year from 10/14/92) 9. CODE ENFORCEMENT ITEMS a. Quandt Property Harvey reported no new information had been received on this item. b. University of Alaska Property (off Beaver Loop) La Shot reported that the University had responded to his letter. They are working with the Kenai Police Department to have the trespassers evicted. 10. REPORTS a. City Council - Not available b. Borough Planning - Not available c. Townsite Historic Task Force Hanson reported that the Task Force was continuing to review the outline to compare with the existing ordinance. d. City Administration La Shot reported that Carr's had failed to get the information for their sign variance to the Planning office before the packet deadline. That item will be on the agenda for November 24th. 11. PERSONS PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED 12. INFORMATION ITEMS 1. Memo - Work Session KMC 14.20.220 Signs and Advertising Devices 2. City Council Agenda KENAI PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION i November 10, 1992 Page 4 13. COMMISSION COMMENTS & QUESTIONS Hanson noted that there was a flashing neon sign in the Alaska Video window. He thought this might be a sign code violation. La Shot said he would check on this. Bannock said he had noticed people pushing snow onto city streets after the snow plows got through. Bannock wondered if the city could invest in snowgates, which would help eliminate some of the snow in citizen's driveways. Scott wished the Commission happy holidays since she will be on a trip during November and December. 14.
