PLANNING 6. PUBLIC HEARINGS a. Encroachment Permit, Resolution 95-48, Pete & Valerie Ischi Acting Chairman Bryson asked for staff report. Kebschull stated she was unable to add additional comments and noted staff comments in packets. Bryson stated Encroachment Permit request was for vertical height limitations. Application by Pete and Valerie Ischi of 300 Rogers Road, Inlet View Subdivision, Part III. Bryson opened meeting for public comments. None noted. RON GOECKE RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF PZ95-48 ENCROACHMENT PERMIT FOR LOT 16, BLOCK 8, INLET VIEW ADDITION PART 111. MOTION SECONDED BY TERESA WERNER-QUADE. Karen Mahurin asked how the encroachment had occurred. Valerie Ischi responded that they were not aware that they had gone over the height limit. She stated the plans were within the guidelines and they felt that when it was framed that it was correct. It was brought to the Ischi's attention by the Building Inspector when he was doing the plumbing and electrical inspections. Ms. Ischi stated that at that point they didn't know how to fix the problem as they were installing sheetrock that day. Ischi stated that the encroachment was not intentional and that they were not sure exactly whether the plans were read wrong or the building framed incorrectly. She stated that they may not have dug down far enough on the footings for the plans. Ms. Ischi concluded there was no logical reason. Bryson asked for other questions for Ms. Ischi or other staff comments. Bryson asked if there had been adverse comments from neighbors and Kebschull stated that none were received as far as she was aware of. Karen Mahurin asked Ms. Ischi if the house was being built by them alone. Ischi responded yes. Mahurin asked if it had been surveyed, if there was a site plan, and if an architect designed the plans and that all of it was to specifications. Continuing, Mahurin asked if somehow in the building of the house there was a two foot error. Ischi stated there was an architect who looked at the plans prior to the building and apparently there was some kind of problem during the framing of the house. VOTE: Goecke Yes Bryson Yes Werner-Quade Yes Mahurin Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. Planning & Zoning Committee Minutes October 12, 1995 Page 2 Acting Chair Bryson noted that Carl Glick now in attendance. (Arrived at ~ approximately 7:06 p.m.) b. Encroachment Permit, Resolution 95-49, Sharon McKenzie Acting Chair Bryson noted that this Encroachment Permit was submitted by Sharon McKenzie of 320 Phillips Drive, Valhalla Subdivision and was a request for a side lot encroachment. Bryson asked if any questions for staff noting the staff report in the packet as part of the submittal. Bryson opened the meeting for public comment. Katherine Godek of 310 Phillips Way: Ms. Godek noted she had written a letter and was available for any questions. Noted her opinion was clear in the letter. Carl Glick asked if her house was the house on the corner next to this house. Godek confirmed this. Glick asked if Ms. Godek was living there when the house was started under construction. Godek offered a brief history. Stated she had moved in July of 1981, purchasing the home at 310 Phillips Way. At that point, the lot next door was empty but had a hole dug that appeared to be several years old. Sometime that summer approximately mid-July or around the first of August, Godek noted a couple men coming to the lot. She stated there was never a "GC" involved; there was never any label with the truck and it appeared to her that two laborers were doing the work. They began setting footings and brought the house to it's present state by the end of September. The house has existed that way for 15 years. Godek stated the house has provided a hazard to herself and her family being vacant for that time and unfinished for that long. Godek noted that over the years she has chased a large number of children with candles and matches out of the house. Godek stated that right now there is a lot of mold in the house because the basement has flooded several times every year; it has frozen basically making it an ice skating rink. Ms. Godek added that she believes that the concrete block has loosened and that the foundation itself has been breached. Godek noted the house is 37 feet from her house. The lots are only 100 feet wide. Godek doesn't believe they had a surveyor and believes the encroachment was just negligence. Godek ended by saying that she objects and that this is not just a little bit of the easement but two-thirds of the easement. No other public comments were noted; Bryson brought the matter back to the Commission. RON GOECKE RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF PZ95-49. MOTION SECONDED BY CARL GLICK. Carl Glick stated he had driven out and looked at the property and noted that the house doesn't look very good and it doesn't sit on the property straight. Also, the house is very close to Ms. Godek's building and it looks bad. Glick noted that he could not vote in favor of this encroachment. Phil Bryson noted he had several ~ comments but in order to get an answer would need the City Engineer present. (Note that La Shot had not yet arrived.) Bryson stated his first question would be if there had been a building permit issued for this building noting it was built during the time Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 3 frame that there should be a permit on record. Bryson also questioned if the intention ~ had been for the building to be a single story structure. Third, if this was intended to be a single story and there is a likelihood that the area could be rezoned to suburban residential, it could possibly be a conforming situation in the future. But it is not at this point. VOTE: Glick No Werner-Quade No Mahurin No Goecke No Bryson No MOTION FAILED UNANIMOUSLY. 7. NEW BUSINESS a. Lease of Tidelands--Memo from Kim Howard Acting Chairman Bryson asked if staff would be present for this item. Kebschull responded that Jack La Shot was attending a meeting in Soldotna and was planning on being at the P&Z Meeting as near to 7 p.m. as possible. Bryson noted that with the approval of the Commission he would like to move to Item 7b and return to 7a when Mr. La Shot was present. b. Landscape Site Plan Review, Resolution 95-51, Clint Hall Acting Chairman Bryson noted that Mr. Hall has been a client of his firm in the past; although, there are no current projects that he is aware of at this time. Bryson stated it was his intent to vote on this item unless there was an objection. Bryson stated that Mr. Hall is building in a commercially zoned district. Bryson asked Mr. Hall to describe to the Commission his plans. Mr. Hall informed the Commission that he is building an office with an attached warehouse. Mr. Hall noted that the plan as submitted with the packet did not leave enough room for trucks to turn around with the planned snow removal area. He noted that it appeared that it may be necessary to eventually move the trees back and have the snow pushed towards the back of the lot. Hall stated that the original plan was premature. Hall added there was a small section of natural terrain he had planned to leave in the front corner of the property, but he now feels it would be more attractive to remove it and plant grass. Discussion regarding planned snow removal area and options. Carl Glick asked if the roof overhang was open. Hall confirmed this. Hall continued stating he had initially planned to leave natural areas but now felt grass would look better. Phil Bryson stated he was aware of a sewer line that runs from one house on First Street to a house that runs on Spruce Street and asked if that runs across Hall's property. Hall ~ stated no. Bryson stated he had a personal preference, even for snow storage areas, that the areas planted in grass. Carl Glick asked if Mr. Hall had intention to plant shrubs along the front of the building. Mr. Hall stated there is a walkway along the Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 4 front of the building; however, he had not addressed the issue of shrubs. Hall ~, continued stating that between the walkway and the building there is a small strip that ~ something could be planted in. The area was left open for some type of landscaping; it has not been decided at this point what to put there. Bryson noted that if the drawing was to scale that possibly the cars could be moved back and this would allow room for a strip for shrubbery. Hall stated that was a possibility. Hall commented that all of the homes he built last year included landscaping as a courtesy and the grass seeds used worked well. Karen Mahurin asked if he was planning on leaving trees as noted. Hall noted that may not be feasible with the room needed for trucks and the trees may be removed. Mahurin asked if this would pretty much be a bare lot. Hall confirmed that the back side would be bare. Hall asked the Commission if they were looking for more in a Landscape Plan. Mahurin noted that on a lot near Hall's lot that there were some people who had been before the Commission on other matters. Mahurin stated the Commission is very dedicated to that area but understands the commercial value. Mahurin stated her main concern is that some grass and shrubbery be maintained and the area remain nice. Bryson commented that the people on the next lot had worked hard to make the area nice. Mahurin added these were long-time residents of the area. Hall ended by saying they wanted their office to look nice. Goecke stated that he felt that as long as Hall was willing to put shrubbery in front of the office, in the two front corners and plant some grass, that would look nicer that weeds. RON GOECKE RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION PZ95-5y LANDSCAPE SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR CLINT HALL WITH SHRUBBERY AND GRASS AS NOTED IN DISCUSSION. MOTION SECONDED BY CARL GLICK. Vote: Werner-Quade Yes Mahurin Yes Goecke Yes Glick Yes Bryson Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. Acting Chairman Bryson stated he would like to return to Item 7a, Lease of Tidelands, with City Engineer Jack La Shot's arrival. Mr. La Shot apologized for being late advising the Commission he was at another meeting. a. Lease of Tidelands--Memo from Kim Howard Mr. La Shot noted that the Harbor Commission did approve of the lease. Bryson asked if council had discussed this item. Councilman Smalley stated yes and the ~ council instructed the city administration to go ahead with the lease as proposed. Mahurin asked if that was before the Planning and Zoning Commission took action. Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 5 Smalley explained that in going ahead and taking part that means that the administration sets up all of the changes and then the process is sent to the P&Z Commission for recommendation. CARL GLICK MOVED APPROVAL OF LEASE OF TIDELANDS AS STATED IN THE MEMO FROM KIM HOWARD WHICH IS KENAI SHORE FISHERY LEASE NUMBER ONE. RON GOECKE SECONDED THE MOTION. Karen Mahurin noted that the memo stated the approval of the concept of leasing the tidelands, not approval of any specific application. Bryson asked La Shot if the Planning Commission had advisory role in the lease of tidelands. La Shot responded that he felt all applications for lease come before the Commission for advisory action. La Shot continued stating that the Commission was being asked if the area should be classified as available for leasing and then the actual lease application may come back before the group. Mahurin asked for motion to be read. Mahurin stated she would like to amend motion. KAREN MAHURIN AMENDED MOTION TO STATE THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION APPROVES THE CONCEPT OF LEASING OF THE TIDELANDS AND FOR THE CITY TO PURSUE THAT PROCESS. TERESA WERNER-QUADE SECONDED THE AMENDMENT ON THE MOTION. Councilman Smalley stated it was his understanding that the intent was to have the P&Z Commission determine that the land was available for lease. La Shot brought the body to the attention of Kim Howard's letter in the packet which notes once the city has classified the land as available for lease, the information would be published. Smalley noted that if there is a motion that approves this land as available for lease that in fact approves the concept of leasing. Mahurin noted that her problem with Mr. Glick's motion was that the Commission was approving the lease of the tidelands. Glick stated he noted his motion was as per the letter from Kim Howard which he thought clarified this issue. Glick stated he didn't have a problem if the motion needed to be reworded. Bryson asked La Shot if there was something in the packet that explains what is specifically being leased. Bryson asked if these people acquire a surface right that other people do not have. Smalley noted that in the leases that have been approved prior to the restructuring of this document, they have existed in harmony and there have not been many problems. The only problems have been on the far side on the first sites. And, those problems have been tourists playing around with the lines and sometimes driving on the lines. The rights are to hang their equipment, they have no control over the beach itself. Glick asked if this is the right to use as a fishery and Smalley responded correct. Smalley stated these leases are very similar to state's shore fishery permits. Smalley noted that the tidelands leases were very unique within the city so the city needed to create a document that changed the rate at which the leases are on this property. This was necessary because they don't have a block of land leased; they are only leasing the area where their net is actually fishing. In rewriting the lease for the tidelands, the first step is declaring the ' land available for lease. Smalley stated that is what the Commission was being asked Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 6 to do tonight. After the declaration, it will be advertised, people can apply for leases, ~~ and the people who have held the leases in the past will be first in line. CARL GLICK AMENDED HIS MOTION TO APPROVE THE CONCEPT OF LEASE OF THE TIDELANDS. Bryson noted there is an amendment on the table. Karen Mahurin withdrew her amendment. Bryson asked for any objections to the withdrawal. None noted; Bryson deemed the amendment withdrawn. CARL GLICK MOVED FOR APPROVAL FOR CONCEPT OF THE LEASE OF TIDELANDS FOR KENAI SHORE FISHERY LEASE NO. 1. KAREN MAHURIN SECONDED THE MOTION. Jack La Shot noted that on the last page of the memo there is a legal description of the property. Vote: Mahurin Yes Goecke Yes Glick Yes Werner-Quade Yes Bryson Yes MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY. 8. OLD BUSINESS a. National Flood Insurance Program Jack La Shot stated that information had been provided to the Commission. La Shot noted the information has not been fully reviewed. Nothing has been received from the City Attorney. La Shot noted a memo had been prepared by the City Building Official. La Shot noted that he had discussed the information with the Building Official and that the requirements for the City would not require a lot of administrative work. The code would need to be amended somewhat to have certified elevation of buildings that might be in a flood zone and then the Building Official would have additional work certifying materials. The city does not have a great deal of privately owned property; however, there is a great deal of city owned property in the flood plain. This program has been proposed to the city a couple times over the years and it hasn't been adopted. La Shot stated he was not sure of all the reasons. There may be some liability for the city and that information will need to be ascertained from the City Attorney. La Shot stated he felt that the program will. probably need to go to council soon as result of the recent flooding. Bryson noted no questions from the Commission. b. Tract C, Daubenspeck Property Subdivision Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 7 Jack La Shot stated that one of the requests from the Commission had been whether ~ or not Department Heads had had an opportunity to review the lease request. La Shot stated that Kim Howard noted in her memorandum that they had been informed. In addition, the Parks and Rec Commission decided to wait for action from P&Z before they acted. La Shot also noted the letter from the Daubenspecks states they do not object to the potential use of the property. Councilman Smalley noted that at the last meeting this item was discussed. After looking through the minutes and talking with Councilman Bannock, there were a couple questions. Those being as far as the arrangements with the Daubenspecks as to what this land should be utilized for. Smalley stated the oil and gas rights on the property and the revenue that is generated from those leases is what generates the Parks and Rec fund. The revenue from the property, if it is sold or leased, goes into the land bank account and can never be touched. The only part that can be touched is the interest from the money as result of the sale or lease of said property. Ron Goecke noted that during the last meeting's discussion that he and one or two others did have a question about the corridor on Bridge Access. That there is in excess of 1000' of frontage there. Goecke stated he felt that area could be utilized for something better. Goecke recommends that the city withhold a section, such as 250 feet, along Bridge Access corridor for commercial development. Bryson asked if the general number Goecke was referring to was in depth. Goecke confirmed. Karen Mahurin asked if it was customary for the city to sell to someone because someone asks to buy it as opposed to the city determining that property will be put up for sale. Mahurin asks if this is the way the city does business. Councilman Smalley stated yes and no. The city has property some of which has already been identified for sale or lease. The city also has properties that have not been listed as for sale or for lease. Individuals contact the city and state they would like to pursue development and this contact starts the process. Karen Mahurin noted that part of her concern was that this is afor-profit group on property that was donated for the public good. Mahurin stated that she supports the nursing home and condominiums, but that she is having a hard time with the process and the fairness. This could be prime property. Mahurin questioned if we lock the city into a buyer without advertising this as being for sale or investigate other proposals that could benefit the city more. Teresa Werner-Quade stated she shares Ms. Mahurin's concern. Noting that the memo states the developer is interested in leasing and eventually purchasing the proeprty. Werner-Quade stated she doesn't have a problem with a possible lease but may have a problem with them buying the land. Werner-Quade stated that if she in agreement that these people gain control of property and build on it, she is left wondering what the eventual outcome will be. Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 8 Ron Goecke stated he doesn't have a problem if the city wants to lease property to a ~ profit-making organization or selling a piece of property to aprofit-making organization. However, he would like to see the corridor withheld along Bridge Access. Phil Bryson stated this parcel was described as transferred in the shape that Daubenspeck had owned the parcel. However, it makes very poor use of the frontage and with the adjacent property along Frontage Road. If they acquired this parcel, they would acquire a small frontage on the Frontage Road. The lot lines make a moderate area undesirable for either the developer or the city that owns the adjacent parcel to the west. The type of facility that is being proposed does not need prime road frontage on a road to the city of Kenai is a major highway. Bryson stated he felt a subdivision of that area might solve some of his concerns. He noted that he has no problem with that area being commercial but it should be a beneficial concern to the city not high density residential. Bryson also reminded the Commission that there is a new road that has been constructed to the back side of this property that is paved. Councilman Smalley brought attention to the letter to Mr. Graves, City Attorney, from Mr. Daubenspeck noting Daubenspecks statement about not wanting to impose on the city and that if the city felt this was the best use of the property, then so be it. Continuing, he noted Daubenspeck stated letter could be considered as a notice to the city that he placed no restrictions on the use of this property. Smalley stated he felt the Commissions' comments were something the city may want to look at as far as subdividing and changing this property. Karen Mahurin asked if he was suggesting that there be a subdivision of the property and this could change the property that would be available to this company. Phil Bryson stated he felt the city should maximize the value of the frontage and the value of the adjacent property. Godek asked if the city owned the property to the west. Bryson confirmed this stating commonly referred to as the FAA property. La Shot stated that due to the use of state park funds in the past, that property has been dedicated in perpetuity to park lands. That adds a slight complication to combining the properties. Discussion on what property La Shot was describing. La Shot stated that the developers spent quite a bit of time looking for property to develop. This property may be the right property in terms of zoning codes. This is zoned for urban residential. La Shot noted that he did not have his land use plan but he felt the land use plan might call it commercial. La Shot stated the developers were trying to find something that would be acceptable to the city. La Shot stated that if there wasn't this problem with the property to the north that the whole piece might be better suited for development in the long term. Bryson stated that they may be able to develop quite well the property toward the river that had an elevation differential with the highway wherein a business couldn't make good use of that land. Discussion to clarify which property Bryson was discussing. La Shot stated he hasn't spoken with the developers to determine if they need the entire parcel. Werner-Quade asked about the Kenai Historic District Board and the piece of property that they are using for the interpretive site. La Shot brought the groups Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 9 attention to the map which shows the church reservation which will be outside, the parking area (where the scenic viewpoint and the interpretive site will be). The dark line shows approximately where the parcel would be to keep control of that area and the old city Quonset but area. La Shot stated there was nothing magic about the dark line on the map. Bryson stated the area designated as church reservation is quasi- public or quasi-private and they have rights and own the property. Mahurin stated that is where the city is working with them to provide access and the parking area the city has installed. Bryson asked La Shot where that left the Commission. La Shot asked if the Commission could make a recommendation. Bryson asked if La Shot would want to put together a recommendation incorporating the Commissions' comments for the next meeting. Smalley noted that the city is looking for the Commission to determine that the land is suitable for sale/lease. La Shot noted now there are concerns about a commercial strip and that should be considered. La Shot stated the Commission could state they are recommending the property be made available for lease but keeping a certain amount for potential commercial property. Carl Glick stated in the interim the city may be able to find out how much property the developer requires. Goecke stated he felt they would not want any access or frontage to the highway. Goecke added that if it was for the elderly he would think the developer would want one street coming in from a quiet end and no through connection at all. Goecke asked if the Commission could withhold any action until next meeting. Smalley stated there is probably not a great rush but would like to get activity started. Smalley stated that he felt with the recommendation the body was making it would give La Shot direction to develop something. Smalley stated he has not been told it needs to be taken care of at the council's next meeting. La Shot stated he would find out information from the developer about how much property they needed and if possible as that that they attend the next meeting. RON GOECKE MOVED THAT STAFF DEVELOP AN IDEA TO PRESENT TO COUNCIL OR DEFER ACTION UNTIL NEXT MEETING. Bryson stated he would interpret this as a motion to postpone action on this item. Goecke agreed. KAREN MAHURIN SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION PASSED BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT. 9. CODE ENFORCEMENT ITEMS 10. REPORTS a. City Council Councilman Smalley noted a copy of the council agenda in the Commissioners' packets. He noted two students came from the High School representing the Junior Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 10 Achievement Program. They were with Kenaiopoly. The city purchased it's square at ~ half-price. Mr. Moore came to council with concerns regarding Cunningham Park and signs. Moore requested signage on Beaver Loop approximately 500 feet either side of the park so that tourists are better able to locate the park. In addition, he requested clearing of the brush around the sign. He also requested a pay phone for the park. The city investigated installing a pay phone and determined it would be too expensive. In regards to 95-60 Kenai Peninsula Borough's Declaration of a Disaster area due to recent storm, Smalley noted that at one time damage estimated at $10 million or $10.8 million. Smalley suggested that getting disaster funds from D.C. will be interesting due to the hurricane season. Smalley commented that the rotary snow remover snow blower will be delivered in approximately 60 days. In addition, he noted that the $84,447 is approximately $35,000 less than what was budgeted. Smalley informed the Commission that the old fire truck has been removed from the surplus item list and that the tank has been removed from the tanker truck and both will be sold individually at the auction. Regarding the signage grant, the city did send a memo stating interest in applying for the grant. The Rotary Club is working with Townsite Historic Board on the signage project. Kenai Golf Course approached council with a proposal for increasing green fees which was approved. Council Person Monfor will officially swear in the oath of office to the new council members. On October 18th there is a luncheon at the Senior Center and the council has been invited. Regarding the well, La Shot stated they city is waiting for screens. Full depth has been reached. The well appears to be the same water-bearing strata that was in the exploratory well. There is about 70 feet, screen size has been chosen. It is estimated it will supply 1150 gallons/minute. The well is 420 feet. Smalley continued stating the Mayor informed the council about meeting with Kenai Peninsula Tourism Marketing Council. They had requested consideration donations. Action was postponed. Discussion because RFP's went out across the state from Corrections for halfway houses with the exception of Kenai. Waiting to see what will happen in the City of Kenai because in the past this was not received positively. The city is talking with the state about the feasibility of going into a revenue bond relationship with the state to develop a halfway house on the Wildwood property which is outside the city limits. This would be similar to the courthouse facility. The facility would handle approximately 30 to 40 people. Smalley stated that before any decision would be made a work session would be held with Planning & Zoning, Council, and the public. No one at the council meeting is looking into the feasibility of a halfway house within the city. The FAA informed the city they may need 1500 additional feet of building space. The city is trying to determine what their needs are. b. Borough Planning Phil Bryson noted the agenda in the packet. A resolution classifying lands in the ~ Seward area had been before the Commission before. This borough property lies along Exit Glacier Road and numerous requests have been received requesting this property be made available for residential use. This area had both desirable land and Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 11 less desirable property on it. Any wet areas on the parcel will be identified by a ~~ survey and classified as preservation and the other area be classified as residential and ultimately sold by the borough. The Commission approved public hearings to vacate: Kobuk Street in Soldotna for three foot on each side of the property; a five foot pedestrian easement in Hideaway estates; Hemlock Circle replatting; and Rose Street. Ten plats, which presents a significant increase, were considered. c. Administration La Shot noted the Commissioners received a copy of the Alaska Planning Handbook. La Shot noted he was on the Kenai River Advisory Board and they have reconvened for the winter and are in the process dividing into subcommittees. La Shot listed a few of the committees. La Shot noted the meeting he had came from tonight was the steering committee for the Kenai River Community Forum that is being coordinated by the Nature Conservatory. La Shot noted he was surprised to find out how many groups are involved in the Kenai River. 11. PERSONS PRESENT NOT SCHEDULED 12. INFORMATION ITEMS 13. COMMISSION COMMENTS & QUESTIONS Werner-Quade asked the group the status of the Comprehensive Plan. She stated she did not think it had been finished and is not sure where the group left off. La Shot stated he felt they had gotten pretty much through the review. He stated that the review was taking place during the time Loretta Harvey was leaving and a decision had been made to let Marilyn Kebschull get settled in as she would be doing the bulk of the work. La Shot stated the Commission needs to go back and determine where the group was with the project. Glick apologized for being late. Stated he would like to be allowed to represent the Planning Commission at the Municipal League in Valdez if the council had money for travel. Bryson stated that commonly more than one person has gone in the past. Smalley asked if there was a recommendation from the Commission of the number that would like to attend. He noted that part of the problem is limited space in Valdez. Glick stated that room space was not a problem. Bryson asked if anyone else would have an interest in attending the meeting. Bryson and Mahurin stated Glick would have their support. Smalley noted there are monies in incidentals and travel. La Shot stated the Planning budget did not have much funding. Smalley asked La Shot to pass the information onto the City Manager. Bryson stated he could gain access through the Borough Planning Commission if he decided to go. Bryson advised staff to consider this as a group consensus that Glick was recommended to represent the group at the meeting. Planning & Zoning Committee October 12, 1995 Minutes Page 12 Mahurin apologized for her earlier laughter stating that she thought the residents of a '~ senior center may not like having a dead end street. Mahurin noted she would like the city to be cautious on the halfway house and to remember the concerns that were brought up in the past such as transportation and employment. These are still important issues. Mahurin informed the group that she will be returning from Washington D.C. the day of the next meeting but will try to attend the meeting. 14.

A parking easement agreement recorded 6-22-86 Recording No. 8600689 allows parking on adjacent property. The amount of parking available is in compliance with KMC; although, the owner is responsible for maintaining parking and easement agreements. I would like to request the Planning & Zoning Commission review this site plan at their 10-25-95 meeting. The building season is just about over for the year and a two week wait for the applicant would be excessive.

Box 433 Kenai, AK 99611 Requested Action: Encroachment Permit for Front Setback Requirements Legal Description: Gov't Lot 83, Sec. 31, T6N, R11 W Existing Zoning: Suburban Residential Current Land Use: Medium Density Residential ANALYSIS City Engineer: This is an application for an encroachment permit for an older home located along Float Plane Road. Since the lot is on a corner, the setback is 25 feet. The house sits 9.59' from the section line easement, or is 15.41' into the setback. The actual construction of Float Plane Road took place after the house was built; however, the section line easement was in place (considered equivalent to a right-of-way). Building Official No comment. RECOMMENDATIONS Recommend approval since the encroachment takes place along the street and the property across the street is the airport. ATTACHMENTS 1.

The Commission wanted the Administration to find out how much property the developer of the proposed senior citizen condominium complex would need for their project. I spoke with the developer and they sent the attached preliminary site plan. This plan allows them access from Frontage Road and Bridge Access Road. It excludes an area along Bridge Access Road, approximately 100' x 500', that could be used for future commercial development. Once again, a formal lease application will be submitted once it is determined the area is not needed for a public purpose. At that time Ms. Robbins will attend the Planning and Zoning Commission to answer any questions you may have. Does the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend the property described as a portion of Tract C, Daubenspeck Property, as shown on the attached map, be made available for lease or sale? Your recommendation will be passed on to the Parks and Recreation Commission and the City Council.

Report on the 1995 Legislative Session by ion ~s~a~~=~s~ Legislative Committee So.....the 1995 Legislative Session is history, the dust is settling, wounded have been dragged off the field, tourists descended on Juneau...; what happened of relevance to the Alaska Chapter of the American Planning Association? Why is this article so tardy...? To provide some background, Mitzi Barker applied for and received a grant to track legislation that might be of interest to Alaska Chapter members. An informal Legislative Committee was established, and a training session was held in Anchorage on January 9 of this year. Approximately 10 people attended, including two from Juneau by teleconference. Advice on how the legislature works and ways to participate was provided by two outgoing insiders: Senator Suzanne Little, and Dave Harding, aide to Representative Eileen McClean. At the end of the training session, a three point strategy was adopted: o Transportation related legislation - HB 133; and o Takings legislation - HB 154; and o State and municipal lands disposal, selections and rights - HB 16 (University lands bill vetoed), HB 20, HB 43 and HB 72; and o Housekeeping corrections to management of state lands - HB 79 and HB 80. In cases where legislation being supported by municipalities was moving forward without opposition (HB20), or other more appropriate organizations such as the Municipal League coordinated lobbying efforts, we tracked progress but did not take an active role. APA lobbying efforts were focused primarily on HB 154, with a secondary effort in support of HB 133. 1) Pick APA issues carefully, rather than testify on everything of interest, which could dilute our effectiveness as an organization; and 2) Work in alliance with other organizations that share common interests, such as the Alaska Municipal League, while maintaining an independent identity; and 3) When testifying, try to work towards solutions to problems, rather than automatically opposing legislation. Legislation of particular interest to APA and introduced during the 1995 Alaska session in Juneau fell into the following categories: o Forest management/timber harvesting on state lands - HB 133; and HB 154 was patterned after similar legislation in Washington state, seeking to avoid government actions resulting in a "taking" of properly and requiring compensation by government to the property owner for the taking that occurred. Introduced by Representative Vic Kohring (R) of Wasilla, the initial version focused on developing guidelines to avoid takings. A second, more far reaching, version emphasizing compensation and prohibiting regulation was substituted, and presented the following problems: o excessively broad and vague definitions of'government action subject to consideration, and determination of adverse effect -using the example of salmon streams and timber buffers, the landowner could sue over the buffer requirement designed to prevent the loss of fish. Or two parties could sue simultaneously if dissatisfied, as in the case where a rezoning allows a noxious use to occur and the applicant sues over restriction of use while the adjacent 2 Alaska'Chapter, American' Planning Association October,1995 property owners sue over loss of property value. o a five year statute of limitations to frle a claim allows a government to be blind sided with a future claim, without any requirement to go through available appeal procedures -the financial uncertainty could result in the government becoming afraid to take any action to protect the health and welfare of its citizens. o -several municipal assessors have expressed concerns regarding provisions for assessing loss in value. Those who testified in favor of the bill took greatest issue with actions of the state and federal governments related to the protection of habitat and fish and wildlife. remains in the committee, where it may be taken up next session. APA is working with ACT and AkDOT&PF to sponsor a February conference on public participation in transportation projects. The APA will need to refine its strategies on both pieces of legislation. One of the objectives of the Fall `95 APA conference is to specifically focus on solutions to the takings issue (see following article). The potential activities of the Legislative Committee and better use of the skills of those who have shown interest in the committee will also be discussed at the conference. Please bring ideas and suggestions to the conference; on a good day, more details may be forthcoming from Jon Isaacs at 274-9719. Those likely to bear the biggest cost of the legislation as written would be: 1) property owners who would end up in court more frequently, 2) municipalities who would be liable for a broad category of claims and may hesitate to act at all, and 3) citizens who would face greater uncertainty about how their community will develop and how their property will be affected. Efforts to track and testify on the legislation were coordinated with the Alaska Municipal League and other organizations, such as the Alaska Environmental Lobby. Testimony against the bill was presented by APA, individual municipal attorneys and assessors, and the State before the House Community and Regional Affairs Committee. The APA position supported the objective of avoiding takings, but opposing the current version of the bill and offering to work with the sponsors on more suitable solutions. After much deliberation, the committee decided to move the bill to the House Judiciary Committee on the grounds that they were more suited to address the bill. At the end of the 1995 session the bill remained in House Judiciary, where it will be heazd in the 1996 session. The APA will need to strengthen its strategy to find a solution to the legislation. HB 133, introduced by Representative Kay Brown (D) of Anchorage, intends to improve public and community participation in state transportation planning and project identification activities. The bill was subject to a hearing before the House Transportation Committee. The Department of Transportation and Public Facilities and some committee members supported the concept but expressed concerns with the bill as written. Several municipal and citizen representatives supported the bill, including Soldotna and the Alaska Citizens Transportation Coalition. APA testified in support of the intent and offered to work with interested parties on the bill.

The plan we are currently working under was conceptual approved for the City of Yakutat in 1981. Besides the passage of 14 years, the borough was incorporated and our jurisdiction, including the coastal district, expanded from 8 to 5,875 square miles. used by Yakutat residents. Although the 1981 coastal management plan made recommendations for the area outside the city limits, which also represented the coastal district boundaries, the fact is there was no real authority. Those recommendations were technically accepted in an advisory capacity. This is no longer the case since the coastal district boundaries expanded to incorporate much more of the are utilized by the community. Because our community has one of the highest subsistence rates in the state, and is a commercial fishing village, with growing tourism, protection of the natural resources is a very high priority. In the public hearing draft of the coastal management plan the borough has one policy that we expect to generate a lot of controversy -Stream Setback in the Timber Harvest and Processing section. This policy reads, "Based on the importance of fishing and salmon habitat to the economy (sport, commercial and subsistence fisheries) of the Borough, timber harvesting shall not occur within 300 feet of the ordinary high water mark on anadromous or high-value resident fish streams or lakes. Forest management activities to enhance habitat may occur within the stream setback." There are no other policies in the Timber Harvest and Processing section that go beyond the 1990 Alaska Forest Practices Act in the public hearing draft of the YCMP. The Planning Commission was advised that this policy may bring conflict. They chose to leave it in the public hearing draft and will address the issues later. They believe the large setback is necessary to protect habitat. Yakutat has suffered significantly from blow downs in past timber harvests. The large stream setbacks will help reduce blow down, protect habitat and consequently help the local economy. The comment period for the public hearing draft of the City and Borough of Yakutat Coastal Management Program closes October 15, 1995. It will be interesting to see the reaction of the different state agencies, as well as private interests to this large setback. It will also be interesting to see how those comments are dealt with by the Planning Commission as they prepare to forward the coastal management plan to the Borough for adoption before the hearing by the Coastal Policy Council. Yakutat had many reasons to form a borough, one of which was to have greater influence over the area outside the city limits that has been traditionally occupied and is currently 4 Alaska Chapter, American Planning Association' October, i'995 News from the Northern glOn by Earl Finkler, Regional Vice-President softball season in Barrow. Hey! Hey! President's Message, by Mitizi Barker Greetings from the suddenly tropical Arctic. As I write this toward the end of September, the temperature in Barrow has reached record highs into the 60s, compared with the normal highs in the 30s. So who is complaining? This is also the time when people travel a lot for both subsistence and business. I called the Northwest Arctic Borough Planning Department on Friday afternoon and was told the entire department was out of town on a trip to Kivalina and would be back on Monday. "It's only two people," the receptionist said. On the North Slope, lots of people are out fall whaling and they have been very successful in this great weather! In fall, the captains and their crews can tow the whale right into shore, where hundreds of residents show up to offer assistance and congratulations and share in the harvest. The Director of our North Slope Borough Planning Department, Dee Olin Hoffman, is also traveling today---- to the North Slope village of Point Hope, a round trip of some 700 miles from Barrow Our Mayor George Ahmaogak has asked all Department Directors to "get off their butts and out of their offices" and spend more time in the seven villages outside of Barrow. I am really enjoying my new job as Deputy Director of the North Slope Planning Department. We have such a large Borough --- 88,000 square miles with no road connections, so this will involve a lot of airplane travel. But most Borough employees are used to that --- I have done zoning inspections which involve a long plane ride, and I have also been on small planes in storms, fog, white-out and various other forms of Arctic weather. Our Senior Planner Dan Forster and his staff will be doing lots of traveling as we prepare a new Comprehensive Plan for the Borough. The previous one is 12 years old. The plan comes at a good time --- with shrinking revenues, a growing population and increasing emphasis on an efficient CIP, local hire and more small business development and privatization. And so as summer ends, and the Chicago Cubs fail their fans once again, I bid you all a great fall and winter! Right now, it is only about eight months until the start of the 1996 I've just returned from Chicago, where I represented the Alaska Chapter in a meeting of the assembled leadership of the American Planning Association, and I must report that I am encouraged and energized by the direction our association is beginning to move. In the next year, you can expect to see a new APA Planners Online service, available through the Internet, that will provide information on employment, professional development, and other networking opportunities, as well as access to APA's extensive library of planning materials, PAS, and more. Chapters will also have forums residing on the network, which we will be able to use to promote improved communications among our widely-scattered membership here in Alaska. The net site will also be a vehicle through which APA will be able to reach a variety of new audiences, and promote greater knowledge about planner and the planning profession. Look for Planners Online to start up ui the spring of 1996. The development of Planning Commissioners is also receiving additional attention. As you maybe aware, the Alaska Chapter has been a leader within APA in the area of planning commissioner training and membership. For several years now, we have co-sponsored with the Department of Community & Regional Affairs, specialized training events for citizen planners. As APA develops additional resources in this area, we will be looking to incorporate them into our program, and to work with national to generally enhance the quality of local planning through planning commissioner education and development. I have asked Elizabeth Benson, the able volunteer behind our planning commission training and Immediate Past President to fulfill the newly designated role of Planning Commissioner Development Officer, where she will act as liaison with APA National regarding issues concerning citizen planners. In general, APA is moving from a largely internal focus to amore dynamic posture emphasizing outreach, linkage and synergy. There is hope that the days ofnavel-gazing, name-calling, and debate over internal governance are moving behind us. APA, through its leadership and members, seeks to gain recognition of planners as innovators rather than regulators, and take initiative to re- connect with the public, mobilizing community-based solutions local problems. Again, our own Alaska Chapter 5 Alaska>Chapter, American Planning Association'' has been moving in this direction already, through our involvement in activities such as Main street Alaska, the Winter Cities Association, and partnership with the Alaska Municipal League. The vision that ties these activities together was presented in APA s long-range strategic plan. An excellent presentation on the plan was made to chapter presidents; I have requested a copy of the slides to shaze with you at our annual meeting in Valdez in November, and also at a brown-bag in Anchorage later in the month. I hope you will take a few minutes to see it and catch the energy that is coming out of our national organization. Unfortunately, these expanded services do have a price tag. At its meeting in Chicago in late September, the APA Boazd approved aphased-in dues increase, which will become effective in 1996, with small increases over the next three yeazs. This matter did not slip by without a great. deal of discussion and consideration, both by the Chapter Presidents Council and by the APA Boazd. In other news.......the Anchorage Planners Brown-bag Luncheon has been revived! We'll be meeting at HDR Engineering in the CIRI Building on C Street, at noon on November 30. I'll have the APA Strategic Plan slides; Elizabeth Benson will be arranging for additional short presentations on topics of local interest. Anchorage/Mat- Su azea planners will receive a postcard with the final program in early November. Come, be uplifted, and help plan for future luncheons. In closing, I'd like to thank you for the opportunity to serve as your Chapter President for the past four yeazs. During that time, we've seen much growth in our chapter, and I am personally excited about some of the new opportunities that aze coming our way. As our reputation has grown, we aze now being approached by state agencies and others to help facilitate planning training and forums. I hope that each member will take advantage of the increased opportunities for volunteer professional service available through the chapter; I know you`ll find it invigorating and rewazding. We have also grown in the depth of our leadership, and it's time now to select a new Chapter President. I encourage you to take a few minutes to read the position statements and cast a vote. I've really enjoyed the comradery and creativity of the Executive Boazd and am looking forwazd to continuing my involvement on the Board as Immediate Past President, where I plan to find some new ways to serve the Chapter.

The Planning and Zoning budgeted travel for transportation did not anticipate or include Planning and Zoning Commissioner travel. However, if the City Council wishes to approve this Planning and Zoning Commissioner travel, per this request by KMC 1.90.030, please be advised that more than likely there will be a request for additional Planning and Zoning travel funds prior to the end of the fiscal year for travel and training that was originally approved.
